Old one almost full!

@FlorenceLane @Eventrider1 10 dpo today too, let hope it's a good omen 😊 although that might be yesterday's post 😂😂'I am 10dpo today

@ELW85 congratulations,
Fingers crossed for you 😊

@Mrskcam I see it!!! Fingers crossed for you!

Tonight went better than I could've planned, the absolute shock and excitement from my fiancé was amazing.

Was planning on testing again in the morning with fmu to see if I can get a nice dark like but already seen a difference in my two tests earlier from when I held my pee a bit so I'm not too bothered. At this rate I'm not gonna have fmu as I'm up every half hour for a pee 😂

@Mrskcam amazing end to the week!!

Tested this morning at 10dpo bfn but was crampy yesterday and got more pelvic pain this morning. Stay away AF!!

Happy Monday ladies let's make it a good week of bfp! X

Morning all

I’m absolutely devastated- my temp took a huge dip this morning and my line is much lighter today.
I hate myself for telling DH, and for how excited he was.

Oh no @ELW85 don't lose hope lovely it might be ok. Did you sleep with the window open or any fans on? I don't know how much of an effect this would have on temp. Thinking of you x

@ELW85 I have everything crossed that the temp drop is due to something else.
Please don't beat yourself up for telling DH. I'm sure he'd rather know and be there for you instead of not being able to support you.
Thinking of you today, lots of hugs ❤️ xx

Morning everyone.

I've been quietly lurking in the background this month - congratulations to everyone who got their BFP's & good luck to all in their TWW!

But if a strange one for me this cycle & was just wondering if anyone else had experienced similar.

I'm currently on cycle 3 post MMC in March. CD13 & im still spotting. O not due til cd 22 according to my Ovy & Glow apps, and it's definitely not early O or implantation as we only DTD yesterday & I've been spotting constantly since CD5.

This is our of the norm for me. I've had regular af from the pill for years and post MMC I had two 4-5 day AFs that stopped without any spotting at all. I know everyone is different, but I'm just wondering if I should ride this out or speak to the GP.
It took until approx 4 weeks ago for my hormone levels to get back down to almost normal, hgc of 7, but the gp was happy at that point for us to carry on trying.

Feel a bit of a fraud asking due to lurking for a while, just haven't felt up to posting & wasn't sure where else to ask for the above.x

@ELW85 fingers crossed for you. And definitely dont feel bad for telling DH xxx

@Tashdreams i would go to the doctors if thats unusual for your cycle - best to get it checked out :)

Thanks everyone. Trying to just get on with it, and hope that it was just something random.

@ELW85 I took another test on Saturday and freaked out a bit as the line wasn't any darker than last week but I have read a lot of things online which says there can be varying amounts of dye in the tests and that some people never saw any progression but went on to have healthy pregnancies. I know its hard when you just want to see that darker line but I think we just need to stay positive xx

@ELW85 remember af still hasn’t shown up. I know you will worry though.

Af hasn’t shown up for me but I got myself in a right state this morning as my temp suddenly dipped. It went from 98.4 yesterday to 97.6 this morning. FF has put it as a open circle (don’t really understand what that means though?)

I know I’m going to be going to the oiler every hour at work today to check if af has arrived.

Toilet not oiler

Please keep us updated @ELW85 xxxxxxxx

Took a test this AM, 12dpo, BFN... Been so moody and emotional last few days, think AF is going to arrive in next couple of days :(

@Lozzlepop @MrsH497 @FlorenceLane @LokiCat @XjustagirlX @Anny27

Thanks all. No AF yet, and I’m doing everything I can to stay positive.

DH has been amazing but isn’t in a good place because his ex wife has chosen today to be the world’s biggest dickhead so he’s really feeling it all.
I’m sat at work close to tears so think I’m gonna go WFH.

Stupid as it sounds, I wish I hadn’t have been so happy yesterday.

Let’s just keep everything crossed that we stay sticky. Xx

@ELW85 poor DH and poor you. Definitely WFH today be kind to yourself you're still pregnant there's still a line x

Thank you @MrsH497 - that really means a lot x

@ELW85 😘

@ELW85 I would deffo go work from home if you can! Don't beat yourself up for being happy its a natural reaction, I do know exactly how you feel though. Please be kind to yourself today, I hope that DH is ok, his EX sounds like a nightmare! Sending lots of love xx

@ELW85 you're allowed to be happy - it's been a stressful journey and one to celebrate when you finally see a result like you did yesterday.
Sorry to hear that DH's ex is being a nightmare. He sounds amazing and you're both very lucky to have each other.
I have everything crossed that this is a sticky ❤️

@XjustagirlX an open circle on FF generally means if you took the temp later/earlier than usual or if you've marked that you were sleep derived, as it can affect the temperature.
Fingers crossed AF doesn't show.

AF showed up for me this morning with a vengeance 😩 Gutted, but also happy that I can finally get rid of the long cycle (60 days later!!).

Thanks ladies. Don’t know what I would do without the absolutely amazing group of women that you are ❤️ Love you all to bits.

I will get a grip of myself and stop just talking about me (I realise I’m not being as responsive as usual).

Let’s take it a day at a time.

@LokiCat - sorry to hear about AF. Your mindset is absolutely amazing and I really hope this cycle is the one for you - you so, so deserve it ❤️

@Lozzlepop - landed safely at home and currently on a conference call on one phone and instructing a solicitor on the other. Madness. Thank you for your lovely words, and keep your head up!! I’m sure we’ll all get there. Sorry to hear you had a wobble at the weekend; it’s awful when you just want to enjoy this xx

@ELW85 Ah I’m so sorry to hear this. No AF is a great sign. Your temp can fluctuate for all manner of reasons so I’ll keep my fingers crossed it’s just a random blip.

Thank you, @MrsEG. How are you feeling?

@ELW85 aww fingers crossed for you! You dh would rather know I'm sure, to help you through whatever happens

@FlorenceLane @XjustagirlX
I'm the same my temp dropped by just under .30c which is close to my baseline 😕 and I've been all jittery and not with it today, along with feeling twiny, a little crampy and tired! I do also feel sick which isn't normally my af symptom but the others definitely are, so think by tonight/tomorrow I will be out!

Gutted for you too @LokiCat 😕

@ELW85 please don’t worry that you told your DH. I would have done the same and it’s better that he knows and he can support you.

TMI alert! I had some spotting today. I’m 12dpo and had a big temp dip. It was really pale brown. When I wipe it’s very pale pink.

I’m clinging onto hope that it’s an implantation temp dip and implantation spotting. It’s probably not though.

I imagine I will know tomorrow morning. My temps will either stay low or go back up.

I usually get stomach cramps but I have really bad back pain today.

@LokiCat I’m so sorry to her AF got you but like you say at least you can put this random long cycle behind you and focus on moving forward!!

@ELW85 glad you are home and I hope your day has calmed down a bit by now! You are right we will get there and we just need to keep positive but wobbles will happen as we are only human!

@XjustagirlX I have everything crossed for you!

I’ve had to come inside as it’s just too hot out in the garden 😂 (don’t think I’ve ever uttered those words before) and now I have the fun task of taking the cat to the vet 🙈 hopefully he doesn’t kick off too much 😬
