@Lozzlepop I hope you have a nice relaxing evening. Good luck for your scan in the morning - will be thinking of you❤️

@ELW85 The fact that the brown spotting has almost stopped sounds very positive and seems that it was old implantation bleeding 🤞🏽 hope all goes well with the midwife tomorrow. It's great that they've offered you an early scan as well! ❤️

@Larrydavid glad you had a nice holiday! Now time to relax away on your country retreat - not at all jealous!!

@Anny27 fingers crossed you have ovulated! I'm only CD3 today. Wishing for AF to hurry up and make a move so I can start SMEP!
My new BBT thermometer and I was so excited - DH didn't share my fascination with the fact that it could update the app automatically with the temp 😂

So I found out earlier today that a friend is pregnant and is due in November, which is also when I would have been due. I'm obviously over the moon for her but it put a slight damper on my evening.
I just really hope I am pregnant by the time November comes!

@MrsH497 ah I'm sorry, I can't see anything. There is still time, so fingers crossed you're not out! Xx

MrsH497 · 17/07/2019 20:56

@ELW85 think AF is imminent started spotting oh well onto next month

LokiCat · 17/07/2019 20:56

@Anny27 sorry, that was meant to say my new BBT thermometer arrived today.
I'm clearly still so excited about it!

LikeTheFruit · 17/07/2019 20:58

@ELW85 I briefly thought about it and while it would probably be lovely I think I'm not going to go for one. My theory is that the NHS scans are at specific times based on good evidence so I'm going to put my trust in that. Also trying to be a good "patient" it's so weird being on the other side!

Anny27 · 17/07/2019 21:14

@ELW85 yep i am hoping it is easy to remember to do every morning when i wake up!

@LokiCat you got the femometer one as well didnt you? Mine arrived today and i am equally as excited haha! Its so cool how it works - will try it properly for the first time tomorrow morning :D ahh its frustrating when you just want to get started on DTD....although i am thankful that i can have a little break now as SMEP was intense haha!

LokiCat · 17/07/2019 21:35

@Anny27 yup Femometer as well - excited to try it out in the morning! I'm just glad the beeps are so faint. The digital thermometer I had would beep so loudly I was constantly worried it would wake DH up!
Ooh, this is our first time trying SMEP and I've warned DH it may be quite tiring from what ladies on here have said, but he's ready to go 😂

Macbless · 17/07/2019 21:51

@LokiCat i’m CD3 today as well. How long are your cycles? I have found temping helpful but always seem to have a few days around predicted ov where my temp is not clearly saying ovulation has occurred. It was helpful having OPKs last month for the first time to help pin point it more.

It will good to see how those of you doing SMEP get on. I’m not sure my DH would cope with an upfront plan of DTD (i’m Planning when we DTD but he’s not aware it’s planned!) but if it works for you I’ll definitely to try to work it into the FW.

MIW01 · 17/07/2019 22:25

Gosh theres just so many of you to keep tags on! Thank you all so much for the support. Very sorry to hear some of you haven't got the news you wanted. I haven't either. My period is due in 6 days so I did a test and got a BFN Sad

But equally, delighted to hear some have had good new and wishing you all the best celebration times ahead (alcohol free of course).

On the bright side. At least DP and I have a great excuse to get at like rabbits! Grin comisseratory love making can be just as fun!
