Fingers crossed @claireb707 sounds potential!

I'm on day 28 today, I don't feel remotely premenstrual, and I'm sure I ovulated on day 14. 35 day cycle last month though, so... Hmm!

Hi guys 😊 I know I'm not TTC anymore but still nosey and wanna see all your journeys

How are we all 😊 xx

Luxoire · 28/10/2019 17:04

Yay I found u guys...it doesnt send me notifications on my email whrn u tag me..maybe bcos i havent posted here yet.
Thanks for @dancingqueen03 and @PieAndPumpkins for reaching out in private message. I missed u crazy hormonal lot.

I am ok..got my BFP with FRER 2 days after period was due...had brown and pink spotring but no AF .. Up until then I'd only had BFNs and had resigned myself really

I am ok generally just diarrhoea literally within an hour if i eat anything and fatigue...seems thia little mite does not wakt to share its space with anything so been living on cream crackers and squash lol...

How is everyone?

@claireb707 how are you pumpkin? When do you test?

Woooooo @Luxoire you found us and with such amazing news too 🥳🥳🥳🥳👶🏻 congratulations honey!!

I'm going to try and hold out till Friday but I'm not sure I'm going to last that long 😂

@luxiore congratulations. Fingers crossed it settles down soon.
My AF arrived today and dont I know it. Had a migraine all day. Never suffered like that before.
Now in a dilemma whether to leave it a month, as my sister gets married next august. If I was to conceive next cycle due date would be a week before. Hmmm. X

claireb707 · 28/10/2019 17:22

Oh no @Zm2019 😢 hope rhe migraine goes soon

MrsCl19 · 28/10/2019 17:40

@Luxoire congratulations!!! Fab news!!

@Zm2019 Ohhh I suffer with migraines to! Sending lots of love your way! You have a tricky situation although either way do whatever you feel best doing:)

Ive been off the pill 11 days now, on agnus castus 5 days and I think my body is getting ready to ovulate.. I've had a really dull ache which I think may be ovulation pain or it could be for af I have no clue😂 I've been using opk and tonight's was not far off same colour as the control line so will keep testing.... what a minefield 🤯

Luxoire · 28/10/2019 17:43

@claireb707 ohhh hold out as long as u can but if u test before and get a negative remember its not over till the witch shows lol..as I've learned... Do u have any symptoms?

@Zm2019 Ohh I hope ur migraines settle down soon... They really are a stinker...since I stopped the pill i havent jad them and hopefully wont have any now for 9 months 😆
Wpuld u try NTNP next cycle and so if it happens fine if not then ur baby free for the wedding? Better than taking thr pill again..or maybe just natural family planning ie avoiding any action in ur fertile week... Would missong a cycle trouble you?

Luxoire · 28/10/2019 17:46

@MrsCl19 out I'm excitied for u.. Whrn did u stop the pill in ur cycle at thr start? Would this naturally be the time u woulf ovulate anyway? Either way a dark opk is a great sign ovulation is 24-48hrs away so get lots of action between now and then to have lots of swimmers in u ready for when the egg pop!

Sending u lots of baby dust xxx

MrsCl19 · 28/10/2019 17:49

@Luxoire thank you! Yes at the start, Ovia saying fertile period from Saturday but suppose coming off the pill it might not be accurate. I've just been dtd ever 2/3 day anyway covering all bases 🤣

claireb707 · 28/10/2019 17:55

I've had quite a few symptoms, the extreme tiredness last week, lots of cm tinged with pink yesterday, a pain in my right hand side, a fluttering feeling all day today across my lower belly.

No idea when my period is really due though, app says 14 days time as last 2 cycles have been 34 and 32 days (ovulated both times around day 11/12) but when I was on the pill I was regularly 28 days

No sore boobs yet, thought think I've had those with my period maybe 6 times in 4 years so it's not normal for me

@Luxoire congratulations!!! What is your edd?

@Zm2019 I know you can’t plan these things too much - but as someone who due 4 days before best friend’s wedding (in france so can no longer go), I would wait a couple of months. I feel TERRIBLE for letting my friend down.

Luxoire · 28/10/2019 19:45

@MrsCl19 hahaha thats the at to go...get filled up with swimmers literally they shpuld be having a disco in your cervix/tubes all over waiting for the egg...lol

@Robs20 thanks hun..july 2st according to app..i need to make an appt for my 6 week booking in appointment...lol I will get rpund to it at some point...doing that will make it real i suppose 😆 how are you and the twins? Whats your EDD?

@claireb707 ohhh I reckon u might be in this month...i had lots of pink and brown spotting/CM I was convinced the witch was on her way esp as i had the BFNs lol but boy was i wrong!!

ALSO LADIES I HAVE A FEW CHEAPIE TESTS LEFT AND X1 FRER TEST THAT I HAVE NOT USED...IF ANYONE FANCIES IT PLEASE LET ME KNOW YOU CAN MESSAGE ME YOUR ADDRESS AND I WILL POST OT FREE OF CHARGE TO YOU! XX

claireb707 · 28/10/2019 19:47

Oooh @Luxoire if your due date is that what CD are you now?

Wondering 'if' I am pregnant then it would be due around our birthdays (matts is 3rd and mine is 7th July) how good would that be 😍

OP posts:
Luxoire · 28/10/2019 19:51

Edd is July 1st so I'd be CD34 now @claireb707 what a great birthday present that would be

claireb707 · 28/10/2019 19:54

Ah a little ahead of me then, I'm cd21 😢 Oh well a belated birthday present then

claireb707 · 28/10/2019 19:59

I really really need some willpower to wait till Friday to test now. This fluttering feeling is really weird. I'm going to go crazy waiting I think

OP posts:
claireb707 · 28/10/2019 20:01

gah Grin

OP posts:
Robs20 · 28/10/2019 20:28

@luxoire ah! Perfect summer due date :)
Mine is 16 May but being twins I will have a planned c section at the end of April if I get that far!
Good luck to everyone testing this week.

Luxoire · 28/10/2019 23:44

@claireb707 hahaha ur msg made me laugh...somehow u notoce these babies and pregnancies mote when you are TTC Hahah u can do it waiting till Friday..lol or get a x2 pack FRER online waiting for delivery will help u wait...lol

@Robs20 my first 2 are EMCS so no doubt i am going to have a planned section..so maybe end of June? No sure, but they might do it between 38-40weeks so labour doesnt actually kick in like it did with the first 2

PieAndPumpkins · 29/10/2019 19:24

Ah yaaaay, congratulations! @luxoire

claireb707 · 29/10/2019 20:37

Can cats tel if you're pregnant?

This cat is never normally cuddly, and will normally only sit on me for seconds before going to Matt but he's been all over me tonight. He never lies like this either

Yea were going to miss a cycle, I dont want to take my sisters thunder on her day lol. Going to use this month as a month of fun with the hubby and try and exercise a little more to lose a few extra pounds. It may help ttc the following month if I am a little lighter lol.

@claireb707 ooo I cant wait for you to test, you have such much willpower to wait I would have done loads by now Haha. They do say animals have a 6th sense. All the best for you. Xx

claireb707 · 29/10/2019 20:48
