@claireb707 so sorru af arrived hun x I hope the pain will ease off really soon x just take couple of days to relax and stay positive for the next cycle x
How are we doing today ladies? CD21 for me today, so around 7/8DPO. No real changes, boobs still really sore and heavy x my OH pointed out that few outbreaks appeared on my boobs, which I have never seen before, but it might be just due to sweat and exercise x couple of twinges here and there in my lower back/side, but nothing I would class as any kind of symptom x 7 days to go, af due 15th x

Morning lovely ladies, how are we all?

@claireb707 oh chick, sorry to hear that! Hope you have a restful week planned. Have a lovely dinner tonight with some wine, it might make you feel better!

@Raizelrea how are you feeling today chick?

@Katie1109 that's good, you're half way through now. All sounds good to me, as Rai said before, symptom spotting before 10DPO is a bit pointless, so that's all reassuring. Hope this will will fly by for you!

I'm feeling good today. Quite tired after a few hours of cleaning yesterday (am I the only one that does that? Full on scrubs the house, changes the sheets, and washes my hair when OH away so that everything is clean and pristine 🤣) so my evening wasn't all that relaxing. I was just shattered! Also really hungry, which is annoying. But now the wait pretty much will start for me. Still a few twinges here and there but nothing major. Watery CM, still not spotted any EWs!

@claireb707 Rubbish, I can relate, mine's pretty strong too this month - thankful for ibuprofen ☺️ Hope it eases off for you soon!

@Katie1109 You're halfway there ☺️ I get breakouts on my breasts when I work out more than usual so could be that, not sure if I've heard of it as an implantation symptom but nothing's impossible.

@Gigi318 I'm ok thanks, just trying to get on with things. Going to be working from home on Thursday so looking forward to that as I can take things at a more mellow pace!

Haha your OH is lucky! I did a big clean when OH went on his stag do in spring but that was more so that I can be smug when he gets back hungover 😄

@Raizelrea oh fantastic, thats a good idea. Just keep busy! Sounds fantastic for Thursday. Hopefully you can do the same Friday too? I hope you're not worrying too much about your families. Still in my thoughts 💫
Oh no my love, it's not for him it's for ME 🤣 literally the second he leaves I made everything OCD level clean so I can enjoy it while he is away. Ultimate luxury for me hehehe! I am strange, I know 🙈

@gigi318 Haha fingers crossed it is 😊. I'm going to try too but haven't since I've finished AF due to my UTI, it was too painful to walk so dtd would be too painful/uncomfortable for me.
Ahhh that's a shame!! I love our new build but it likely wouldn't be out in the sticks as you'd like. We really do!! How are you today?

@raizelrea Your a tough cookie but you've got us here for support whenever you need it. Haha this is true! It's always good when it falls on a Friday or Saturday! Gutted I'm working on the Friday and Saturday though but I'll make it a good birthday with the time I have 😊. Yeah don't get me wrong I'm still a tad hesitant I can't help but to think it'll take longer but I'm going to go with it and see, it may prove me wrong! How are you feeling today?

Hi girls, I’m experiencing shooting pains that last couple of seconds in my left pelvic area at the moment. It does not feel very nice at all :( 7/8 DPO is too early for implantation, isn’t it? Boy I feel exhausted now! :(

@katie1109 Not too early - implantation happens anywhere between 6 and 12 DPO so certainly possible!

So my bleeding has basically stopped now. I think my body is playing an elaborate prank on me!

@Hewie30 Oh no, gosh that UTI really took it out of you. Is it all cleared up now? Yes just get to it when you feel like it. No rush! I think they look so chic, but OH 100% wants country and I've grown to really love it. I'm more of a city girl at heart, but I've been converted. So here we shall stay! I'm feeling well mainly. A little tired (as per my earlier ramble) and trying to get some big projects done, but other than that I'm all good. I can definitely feel some twinges today and more water CM, so hopefully it's O time. How are youuu? X

@Katie1109 I'd say you're bang on implantation time, my love. Eeek I hope it is!!!! How exciting. But also, try to distract yourself if you can so you don't drive yourself mad wondering if it is. Woohoo!

@Raizelrea okay so this is all nuts. Have you had much at all today? Hopefully that's a good thing?! I never know what to think anymore when we all have bleeding stop and start. So hard to even weigh in on it. Perhaps you're right, just our bodies sending us balmy! Lots of love x

@Gigi318. Still no sign of AF! Now 4 days late. Symptoms include- extreme hunger, headaches, hot flashes, cramping, backache, nausea, tiredness! Before I went on the pill I had super irregular periods so didn’t expect any different now after coming off the pill but something just doesn’t add up, such strong symptoms but keep getting BFN!

@katie1109 oooo!! Nooo that could definitely be implantation 🤞🤞🤞

@gigi318 Yeah it did massively I felt so unwell! Thankfully it's all gone now so I feel myself again, oh has been staying away because I've been in pain but think I'm ready for some attention again 😂. Oh really? You've definitely been converted haha. I know how you feel im from London and never thought I'd move out of there but I've moved to Surrey but I've definitely felt it was the best thing i could have done! What big projects have you had? Anything interesting 😊. Oooo come on ovulation, twinges and ewcm 😍😍😍. I feel okay! Starting to get twinges but only CD10 so early doors for me!

@ACMJ how strange. Still give it more time chick. Some people don't get BFPs for a week or more after AF due. But also, not everyone has symptoms with PG so it's really hard. Only time will tell. Hopefully you can distract yourself? Also, they say the hcg levels double every 48 hours so maybe give it 2 days and try again 🤞🏻💫

@Hewie30 that's good. You'll have to dive on OH tonight the. Got to get those strong swimmers ready! Yesss, hope so. I think O really is today. Lots of watery CM and twinges. So I'd say so!! Woohoo!! Roll on the DPOs!
Oh that's amazing. I hope you're enjoying the change of pace? When did you move?? Nothing too exciting sadly, which is why I think I'm more exhausted than anything 🤣🙈 I work in marketing. So I guess it's all fun in a way!
That's good. Glad you're feeling well. And who knows, now you're off Pregnacare, you may O sooner 🤷‍♀️👌🏻 which would be great. And seeing as we're all pretty certain you had a MC (chemical) last month, you should be a fertility goddess right now. So woohoo!!

Thanks for all your relpies x if this is not an implentation I do not know what it is. The pain is not shooting now, it’s a dull constant pain which I can feel every time I stretch bend over or cough and sneeze etc x I haven’t noticed any spotting x

@Katie1109 it sounds positive to me, chick. Keeping fingers crossed for you. I think IB is rare anyway so don't worry so much. But it could be that you notice a tiny amount of brown blood in a few days if its old blood. Woohoo. How are you feeling now chick?

I’m ok, thanks @Gigi318 x just sitting on the sofa with a laptop doing some stuff for work, not feeling much pain, just some twinges x I’ll update tomorrow x

@Katie1109 all sounds fab to me chick. Enjoy! Excited to hear more x

Hello :) new to this group, thanks for having me!

Age 31, with partner for eight years and this is our first time trying.

I have been on the pill and then the mini pill for 16years straight. I came off the pill about ten days ago. No signs at all of AF and not even a withdrawal bleed. Starting to become impatient and also a bit worried. Not sure if anyone else has come off the mini pill?

It's annoying as can't really track or plan until my cycle reappears xx
I

Morning ladies, how are we? x I had an awful night sleep, very uneasy and got woken up by the pain couple of times. It seems to have eased off for now, it’s just little twingling here and there x boobs are extremely sore, I should have “do not touch” sign on them! x
@Raizelrea how is your bleeding? Is it still nowhere to be seen? x

Morning ladies, how are you all doing?

@Katie1109 oohhhh babeeee, sorry about your poor night's sleep. But these all seem to be promising signs 😬😍👏🏻 especially the sore boobs. I'm feeling good today. Twinges have stopped and think CM is creamy but will keep an eye on it. Oh and I am now officially in the TWW - 1DPO. Woohoo! Let the fun begin 🤣

@Peaceandloves welcome! Don't worry, it's very early days. Some women can take 30-90 days before first period. It will come. Try to distract yourself if you can!

@peaceandloves Welcome hun. Don't worry as Gigi said it can take a while, it took mine 4 and half weeks to arrive 😊

@gigi318 Haha! I certainly did last night! 😂. Although he made the move first 😂. Hopefully they'll be some swimmers there if I ovulate earlier this month! I'm hoping I will do but no signs yet. Yeah I love the slower pace it's so nice, I drove back to London the other day and had the shock of my life 😂😂. What cd are you now?

@Hewie30 hey, hey twinny (I know you're a triplet but I'm calling you my twinny 👯‍♀️) Oh that's amazing. Always nice to just go with it and see what happens. But also got to replenish those swimmers hehehe so good to get started early 🙊 I thought you meant the slower pace of this relaxed month but realise you mean of Surrey hehehe! I usually drive to London too, but it takes me 2-3 hours 🤣
I'm CD16 now. And finally 1DPO 🙌🏻 hurrah. Well, unless I spot some EWs today or tomorrow. Either way, think I will class today as 1DPO as I'll test on 23rd anyway - that's when AF is due. Have been having more twinges today. So not sure when O was/is but just relaxing as OH isn't back until tomorrow 🤷‍♀️🙈👌🏻

@gigi318 Haha! 😂. You can be my twinny 👯. Yasss started last night so will keep an eye for ewcm but dtd when we're in the mood 😊. Haha sorry yeah! Oh wow do you?! That's a long drive. Do you work there?
Yay to 1dpo 🤪🤪🤪🤪. Hopefully this is it for you, the countdown is on! Oooo your due on my anniversary ❤️. Give us some good news!

@Hewie30 hahaha yesss!!! That's so good. It's sort of what we're doing, but I did try to up the ante around my most fertile period (and will still do when he is home tomorrow). It's way nicer. Enjoying it this month and feel more relaxed and happier due to all the DTD too - I forgot how good it is for your health and mood!
I'm freelance, but often have meetings or events to go to in London. And lots of friends there. So I'm back and forth a little. Not much. Once a month - sometimes more or less.
Thankkkks lovely one. I hope so. I'm classing it as month two, but it feels like month one (as last month I was not prepared whoops) and month three (as this will be the third month I've POAS) as well. So weird 😂🙈 Amazing. First year?? Or more?? It will be 10 tears for us in December, but not married. Love us!!! Oh I am hoping I will have good news. I really do. It's all so exciting!!
Do you know when your next AF is sort of due?? How are you today??

@gigi318 That's good! It sounds like you've got it covered plus having a good time in the process is ALWAYS a good thing and a plus 😊😂. It 100% improves your mood, it did last month for me with all the dtd!
Oh I see that's not too bad once a month, it has nice bars and restaurants there too to take advantage of! What do you do for a job if you don't mind me asking?
Haha! Month 2 or 3 sounds about right, it's hard to work it out sometimes isn't it. I feel it takes a few months to get into the swing of it and feel like your actually trying if that makes sense? I came off beginning of May and started trying straight away. So technically it's my 6th month of trying but if it's from my first proper period it would be month 5.
Awh that's amazing!! Would you like to get married? It'll be our 5th anniversary, like you were not married but I'd like to be engaged at some point soon whenever he's ready.
Because of last month I legit have NO idea haha. My apps have given me 17th or 20th to ovulate but could easily be 25th if my cycles long and k ovulate late again. So AF could be 3rd November if it's a 35 day cycle or anytime after that 😂
