@pinkslink17 yay, glad you found us! I've never used those ovulation sticks, so I'm no help, sorry!

@luxoire ahhh you poor thing, maybe it's all the hormone changes messing you up?
Yes! I have DS 8, DD 6, and another DS nearly 1. I'm also still bf, so I have no clue what my cycle is actually doing.
Its been hard in all honesty. My first two were sooo easy, even being only 2 years apart, they were both always very easy going. My youngest is clingy, demanding, had reflux and still doesn't sleep great. But, my oldest 2 adore him and have handled the natural shift in how much attention I can give them, really well. I absolutely think it's more to do with the type of baby you have though. Most of everyone says going from 1-2 is the hardest.

@Luxoire I'm due either Friday/Saturday Premom says Friday, flo says sat so who know.

Aww fingers crossed yours is right and you get yours this weekend so you can get back on track. I'll be happy either way this month just because I'll know my cycles are back.

HappyGirl86 · 27/08/2019 21:07

I'm still having all these weird symptoms @Destiny25 but who knows eh.....
The one that really makes me think of my last pregnancy is the pulling sensation in my stomach....I don't ever remember having that with a period but it's early days. So early to be experiencing anything!

Luxoire · 27/08/2019 22:41

@HappyGirl86 thats is so comforting..thank you. I will give it time to get out of my system... And keep going esp as i know GPs are uselss woth actually helping.

@PieAndPumpkins oh wow... Thats comforting to know it is doable...my first is my most demanding. My second was and is still very easy but my first did not handle the change very well and ahe still acts up...and at the moment all they do is bicker lol..hopefully the 3rd will bind them together

@Destiny25 Hahahah how did u accidentally use youe last test? Hahah that made me laugh

HappyGirl86 · 28/08/2019 10:28

HappyGirl86 · 28/08/2019 10:40

I don't understand all the temp stuff and charts sorry, I'm only just getting my head around the OPKs haha @claireb707

When would your period be due?

claireb707 · 28/08/2019 11:02

In theory Friday this week. But I've only been off the pill a short time so can't guarantee it. BUT when I came off the pill before I carried on being as regular as I was on the pill so was a bit of an assumption on my part. Think I was just getting carried away with myself

CouscousEvaporator · 28/08/2019 11:18

@HappyGirl86 that’s ok 😊 I found it really reassuring and logical

@claireb707 is there any chance cd22 is an anomaly? Maybe you just need a bit longer to wean off the hormones? My period when out of whack for a month and i had the non hormonal coil...

CouscousEvaporator · 28/08/2019 11:18

Went not when 🙄

claireb707 · 28/08/2019 11:24

Possibly I just need to be more patient Blush

CouscousEvaporator · 28/08/2019 11:30

I messed up reading your chart anyway, I meant cd20! Lol
Other than that spike it looks good doesn’t it? Although I am not an expert 😆

Destiny25 · 28/08/2019 12:19

@Luxoire well I'm a addict to testing if there's tests in the house I'll use them all within a hour even tho they'll all say the same 😂, so atleast now I have none I can't test anymore!
How you all feeling today? Any new symptoms?

HappyGirl86 · 28/08/2019 15:33

Hi girls, I caved and did a test haha
I can see a very faint line and it's not really hardly visible on pics but I've added the more contrasted pic.
I'm only 9 DPO so it's still early.

claireb707 · 28/08/2019 15:36

I can see it Grin congrats!

CouscousEvaporator · 28/08/2019 15:48

Amazing! Congratulations x

HappyGirl86 · 28/08/2019 16:00

Feel like I'm imagining it haha or it's all going to go wrong

Destiny25 · 28/08/2019 16:12

@HappyGirl86 oh wow I can see that congratulations!!
What symptoms have you had again?

HappyGirl86 · 28/08/2019 16:15

I hope tomorrow it's not gone Confused

Terrible gas/wind, felt bit sick, boobs are sore. Cramps most days. I've also felt tired but then I'm always tired lol

Destiny25 · 28/08/2019 16:56

@HappyGirl86 fingers crossed it's still there tomorrow.
I've done another one too, there's the faintest line-tried to get a pic but so faint flash takes it away.
I don't believe it tho I've read bad reviews on Asda's own brand, and frer was negative yesterday! Who knows!

HappyGirl86 · 28/08/2019 17:01

I found that it was harder to see it with the flash on @Destiny25 the test I used is a first response.
Keep positive.....nothing is negative until AF comes. Xx

MrsSkr · 28/08/2019 18:28

Sorry girls I need to catch up properly I had a rubbish day yesterday then was out all day today.

BUT @HappyGirl86 ... I HAD to comment when I saw this! I can definitely see that line, I didnt even need to open the pic properly, its definitely there! Huge congratulations and hoping and praying for a super sticky wee bubba! Omg! Our first bfp...I feel this is going to set the tone for us all 🤞🤞🤞

HappyGirl86 · 28/08/2019 18:32

Awww thanks, thanks everyone!
Fingers crossed everything sticks!

How are you feeling @MrsSkr ?

hermionelodge · 28/08/2019 18:36
