Yep @Gems7 only 2 weeks till ovulation I guess! Plus we are going away this weekend so I can use the hotub 💗💗

I am feeling low about it if I am honest, just want a baby, it's hard!

Ellsbells112 · 27/01/2020 13:34

@Gems7 hahaha I only know because last month it happened and I was temping while doing opks. I was like wtf!? Haha but actually this cycle has confused me. I got a solid smiley last night, I decided to do a opk because I was getting loads of ovulation pain so we dtd of course but this morning my temp hasn't shot up its just higher than the others but so was Friday and Saturday and I know I didn't ovulate on Friday, my cervix is still high etc and opks. So I researched a bit and apparently this medication I'm taking can fuck your temperatures loool I was like phew ill just keep bding then! My cervix is still high and soft this morning and I had more ovulation pain soo ill just dtd this evening to make sure. Fingers crossed there's some bloody luck this month!! Starting to get soooo fed up with this shit!
Are you 1 or 2dpo now? Xx

@anny27 I'm sorry ❤️ I know it's really crap 💩😟😟😟

Gems7 · 27/01/2020 13:56

@Ellsbells112 yeah I'm getting fed up with this shit too!
Letrozole would have an impact I would imagine.. could possibly delay ovulation aswell.. you just never know do you!!

I had a positive smiley yesterday morning and a blank circle this morning.. does that mean I'm ovulating today? I've had OV pains this morning.. do you always get pains before ovulation? Or can you have them after it?
we DTD yesterday morning, I wanted to to it this morning really but OH was being an ass.
Do you think I should DTD when we get home from work today? Is there any point now? Don't know if I ovulated yesterday or if it's happening today..
when I google it, it says you ovulate the day after the LH surge.. which would be today.. (or possibly last night)
Aarrgghhhh So frustrating!

@Anny27 it's so hard I know 😞 and no matter how hard you try not to it's all you can think about! Xxx

Ellsbells112 · 27/01/2020 14:08

@Gems7 I know and it's the constant guessing game!! Like when do we have to do it etc it drives me up the wall!! I don't know because you're using the other ones right? So on my ones (to give you a vague idea) when I get a solid face it stays on the little device for 2 days because once you get the solid face you can ovulate up to 1-2 days later (I think) just BD again this evening I say. Also a good indication for me that I'm not fertile anymore is when my cervix comes down and hard again xx

Gems7 · 27/01/2020 19:24

@well I've had OV pains pretty much all day and after work at 5:30pm ish I noticed ovulation spotting which I've never had before actually.. so I know I've ovulated at some point today, we have just DTD (7pm) "just in case" .. I hadn't done it since first thing yesterday morning. I'm hoping Ive ovulated later in the afternoon and not this morning.. then those sperm have time to reach that egg before it buggers off 😃🏊‍♂️

I don't know how to check my cervix 🙈 I'll have to watch some YouTube videos haha

It's nice we are both in this at the same time this month, really hope this is our month!!
Let the TWW window commence 🤯

Xxx

Gems7 · 27/01/2020 19:26

@Robbo93 any more pink mucus? 👀 xx

Ellsbells112 · 27/01/2020 19:33

@Gems7 yeah! It is nice we are right on top of each other in time :) I really don't know when I've ovulated I haven't had a clear indicator and I'm still getting pain. But I know you can get pain after ovulation too so who knows. Probably ovulated last night/today I think, my cervix is hard again so 🤷‍♀️ I'm gonna BD anyway just in case lol xx

Anny27 · 27/01/2020 19:41

@ellsbells112 @Gems7 you girls and me have opposite cycles haha!! You guys in the tww and me just started period.

@ellsbells112 I have no idea how you feel your cervix, I don't have a clue what I am feeling for!

Robbo93 · 27/01/2020 20:29

@Gems7 aww thanks for checking in on me sweetie! I've had a couple of pinky spots today (which is more than I've had the last 60 days lol) but no full flow yet xx

Gems7 · 27/01/2020 21:32

@Robbo93 I can't even imagine how frustrating it must be for you being in limbo like this! I really hope AF comes pronto, and you get some answers at your next apt xx

Ellsbells112 · 30/01/2020 15:05

Hey @Robbo93 how's it going? Has your af come??

@Gems7 how are you? I feel like I'm going mad already haha x

@anny27 how are you xx

Gems7 · 30/01/2020 17:37

@Ellsbells112 yep I'm same as you then! It's on my mind CONSTANTLY 😏 is it my month? Is it not? What was that twinge? Do I usually feel that? URGH! So annoying. I really really really want a baby. Try so hard aswell to relax but it's just not in my nature. When I want something I usually obsess over it until I get it, don't like things being out of my control 🤯

How are you hun? Anything to report so far? You're about 2DPO is that right?

I'm 3DPO so way too early for anything relating to pregnancy. Had some achy moments in my left ovary area and had the spotting Monday and yesterday which I'm assuming was OV spotting therefore hopefully a good sign I've actually ovulated.

Long way to go for us both yet though (yawn)

Xxx

Ellsbells112 · 30/01/2020 17:45

@Gems7 it's all consuming isn't it? Babe I'm literally sat here scouring the Internet about stuff I've already looked up for the past 6 months lol god it's not even funny. Yup, I had trapped wind and I was like what was that!!! 😂 Is that a babyyyyy urgh no it's awful I want it so bad as well 😩

I'm actually 4dpo I ovulated on Sunday. My apps are telling me Saturday because of my temps but I was getting flash faces even on Sunday but Sunday evening I got a solid face along with loads of ovulation pain 🤷‍♀️ we've got agggges to go. I've been stuffing OH with loads of vitamins, mainly zinc and cq10, hoping his sperm will turn super saiyan (dragonball z reference) xx

Robbo93 · 30/01/2020 18:27

@Ellsbells112 hello chick! How's you?

I'm not sure at the moment, I've had a few days of spotting.. sometimes pink, sometimes orange, sometimes red but only when I wipe 🤷‍♀️

Gems7 · 30/01/2020 19:18

@Ellsbells112 that's so funny 🤣🤣🤣 i swear if anyone saw my google search history they'd think I was a complete nutter!!
I do the same as you, look up the same stuff I've already looked up 87 times before haha
Xx

Anny27 · 30/01/2020 19:44

Hey girls! Cycle day 5 so period ending today and then back to the DTD marathon haha 🤣

@Ellsbells112 @Gems7 totally, in the tww my google history is embarrasing! "Left nipple looked slightly darker at 8am than it did at 7.59am - pregnant? " 🤣🤣

Hope the tww goes quick for you both!!! Are you gonna early test or wait it out?

@Robbo93 has your GP done any thyroid checks?

Robbo93 · 30/01/2020 19:57

@Anny27 I had a thyroid blood test done a couple of years ago (as I have high blood pressure) and it came back normal.

Funny you mention it though as I have been reading up about under active thyroid etc recently and i do have a lot of its symptoms. Apparently the lower readings on a bbt can indicate it when sometimes blood can still show as normal x

Ellsbells112 · 30/01/2020 20:12

@Robbo93 ahh that's so annoying! Interesting about the bbt though so it's good you're tracking it ow so you can show the doc. I know a girl who knew she had a thyroid issue and the doctor wouldn't listen to her, there is a normal blood test they do fornthoryoid but apparently there is another they don't usually do (I don't know the name) but that's the one that speaks truth.

@anny27 ahh yayy you can have all that baby making sex! Whoop haha I dunno if you enjoy it but I'm literally over it the first day!! I'm so sick of scheduled sex

@Gems7 yup always and just sit here waiting to feel something lmao I swear I actually get depressed during the 2ww.can it be over yet? Xx

Anny27 · 30/01/2020 20:16

@ellsbells112 its enjoyable the first two times 😅🤣 Gets so boring when it's a necessity and its scheduled as such haha!

@Robbo93 ah that is interesting! I ask because my friend had thyroid issues thats causing her to spot but not actually have a "proper" period as such

Robbo93 · 30/01/2020 20:25

@Ellsbells112 @Anny27 I'm gonna mention it at my doctors appt in a couple of weeks seeing as I'm not getting my blood test results until April 🤦🏻‍♀️

It's so strange though cos I've had a normal period every month for the last year up until now x

Gems7 · 03/02/2020 10:21

Hey girls!
Hope you all had a fab weekend!
Any update @Ellsbells112 ? How you feeling..
I don't have any symptoms whatsoever! My boobs would normally be hurting by now ready for AF aswell but they aren't even hurting! I feel absolutely fine! Last 2 cycles have been 27 days so if that's the case then AF due on Saturday!
When's it due for you? Xx

Ellsbells112 · 03/02/2020 11:30

@Gems7 I'm due Sunday or Monday! I have no symptoms whatsoever either feel exactly the same as usual. The only difference was today I was super wet and was like wtf and had a look, wet patch in my knickers lol and it was like cloudy lotion like but a lot of it. I know that isn't a sign just something different lol I'm scared I don't want af to come 😥😣
Maybe you feelijg nothing is actually something then? Xx

Gems7 · 03/02/2020 12:04

@Ellsbells112 I really don't want AF to come
either, I just know I'm going to feel so deflated and upset when it does. Hopefully no symptoms is a good thing.. for both of us..
wonder that the discharge was about.. 👀 I haven't really had much of it. I know I've defo ovulated this month because of the spotting and DTD at the right times so I've got everything crossed for this month!! Xx
Xx

Ellsbells112 · 03/02/2020 12:29

@Gems7 awww that's good!! The opks make you feel more like yep I know I've done it at the right time!! Which is great. I don't think the cm means anything but I'm definitely noting it down so I can cross reference if no bfp this month 😩 hopefully won't have to!!

You know what's making me feel better is researching how long it took others to concieve and actually its quite cool that it varies, like their first pregnancy concieve in one month and second 10 months!! That's so different and it makes me think it's okay, sometimes it can just take a little whole longer maybe. Still frustrating but at least it's not unheard of, hard not to lose your mind though 😂🤞

I'm googling constantly it's doing my head in I need a hobby obviously hahaha xx

Gems7 · 03/02/2020 15:09

@Ellsbells112 I'm just an impatient cow when I want something badly 🤣
It defo can take a while can't it.
We will be going back to OH's GP after one more cycle to hopefully have his sperm tested xx
