@Lucy5546 that's the best way to do it tbh. There will be times you feel like you're going nuts but try to stay calm. End of the day it'll happen when it happens, you're already doing all you can.

Mum2boyss · 30/11/2019 17:37

@mellymoo86 fingers crossed for u xx

Lucy5546 · 30/11/2019 17:37

@mellymoo86 i am already goin crazy. OH wanted to start next year but im not a very patient person so after we talked about it we decided i would come off the pill this year and just see what happens. OH cant get his head around the whole ovulation window. He was under the impression we could get pregnant any time of the month. It was a hilarious conversation though.!!

FutureMrsSmith · 30/11/2019 17:43

@mellymoo86 you poor thing! This must be driving you absolutely mad.....!!! 😔
My OPK looks strong now so DTD tonight and tomorrow & possibly Monday morning as OH is working Monday night.
@nt1992 think we are in exactly the same position! 😂

nt1992 · 30/11/2019 17:45

@FutureMrsSmith @mellymoo86 baby dust for us all😘🤞🏼

mellymoo86 · 30/11/2019 17:50

@FutureMrsSmith it is!! 😩 I didn't tell OH yet. I want to be sure of what's happening before I do. I guess I can only know that as more days pass by.

MrsC89 · 30/11/2019 18:28

Af has arrived with me today. Last cycle was 28 days this cycle was 30 days. Normal for me is 35. Do I now officially have irregular periods?

Skygirl1983 · 01/12/2019 12:44

Morning ladies. Happy Sunday. Sorry I have been quiet for a couple of days. I had the most horrendous hang over yesterday after a few too many gins on friday! I'm officially off the alcohol again!
@mellymoo86 anymore news to report??

@Skygirl1983 hangovers are soo not worth I was the same 2 weekends ago🙈. Well some apps say yday was ov day some says today. Never DTD last night. But will be tonight so hopefully I'll catch the egg🤷🏽‍♀️🤞🏼

Skygirl1983 · 01/12/2019 13:08

Ooh @nt1992 fingers crossed for you!! I'm off the opks etc this month. Just going to enjoy xmas. Still going to track on the app but more so I know how my cycles are going.

@Skygirl1983 I'm not going crazy this month worrying about testing etc just going to relax until January 😂

PandaPink · 01/12/2019 13:19

@skygirl1983 it's good to take a break from the opks and relax.
@nt1992 I have caught the egg DTD 3/4 days before ovulation so don't worry about missing a few opportunities cos those little buggers hang about!! Lol

My mood is on the ceiling one minute and on the floor the next. I am going through some stress at work which is making me want to pack nursing in all together. I need to take one day at a time but I cant help but think the stress is affecting the pregnancy. Or maybe it's the pregnancy causing the stress I have no idea.

DP us becoming more and more supportive now and opened up lastnight that he's terrified of a mc. We need to stay possitive and I need to remind myself that I am most important not my work. Put myself first.

nt1992 · 01/12/2019 13:21

@PandaPink that gives me hope because I DTD 3 & 4 days ago 😂

mellymoo86 · 01/12/2019 13:42

@Skygirl1983 Sounds like you had a good birthday 😊🎉Hope you have recovered from the hangover, they're terrible.

I'm still getting faint positives. I think I'm going through a chemical pregnancy. They happen up to 5 weeks (I'm 5 weeks today). Was in shock the past few days and frantically reading what I could find about it but I'm fine now. Spoke to OH as well and we said it's positive because we know that sperm and egg met, fertilised and implanted. It's from there it didn't work and couldn't survive and around 70% of women go through it. I only noticed because it happened a day or two after my normal AF time. If I didn't take a pregnancy test I would have assumed my AF was late.

Now I'm trying to figure out when I'll ovulate again. It should be 14 days after, so hopefully I can try in about 10 days time. My opk cheap sticks are picking up a high reading but I think it's false as I'm bleeding and still have hcg inside me. So will monitor and see 😊 All in all I feel positive about it 😊

PandaPink · 01/12/2019 14:00

@mellymoo86 I'm sorry to hear, I'm sure your body will be making you super fertile for the next cycles.

I have had a chemical and I feel like I have trust in my body to do the right thing. It doesn't make it any easier but it gives me some comfort.

PrettyGirl5545 · 01/12/2019 16:43

@mellymoo86 Oh that's so sad! Is there any reason you think would have caused the chemical pregnancy? Like alcohol or heat or decreased HB or strain?

mellymoo86 · 01/12/2019 16:47

Thank you @PandaPink I hope so to. I wasn't sure how to react to be honest. If it was going to happen I'm glad it did at this early stage.

@PrettyGirl5545 not sure why it happens, according to google it can be a number of things, mainly due to chromosomes, hormones etc.

Last week and before wasn't a great for me so was most likely not ideal for anything to occur. I was travelling for work, didn't take the right clothes so was always cold, I didn't sleep well, I got the flu/chest infection and been taking medicine every 4 hours for about 5 days (not antibiotics) but still not ideal.

I'm glad I'm home for the next few months 😊

PrettyGirl5545 · 01/12/2019 16:53

Oh yes! I wanted to ask. I took antibiotic yesterday. I have caught a very bad cold. Will that affect conception? I'm already 9 dpo.

PrettyGirl5545 · 01/12/2019 16:54

@mellymoo86 planning to take antibiotic today as well. Should i take?

mellymoo86 · 01/12/2019 16:59

@PrettyGirl5545

Which antibiotic is it? Google it and check if it affects pregnancy.

PrettyGirl5545 · 01/12/2019 17:16

@mellymoo86 okay! Dr. Google says it's safe to take that antibiotic. I also took antihistamine (cetirizine) yesterday as dr. Google had allowed me to.

mellymoo86 · 01/12/2019 17:19

@PrettyGirl5545 should be alright then 😊

@PandaPink when you had your chemical did you bleed? If you did how long til your cycle went back to how it was? I'm confused as to when I will ovulate now 🤷🏽‍♀️

FutureMrsSmith · 01/12/2019 18:10

@mellymoo86 sorry to hear about your chemical but it's reassuring to know you were doing the right thing and can get pregnant!

mellymoo86 · 01/12/2019 19:23

@FutureMrsSmith thank you 🤗 yup very true. I have a good feeling about this cycle 😊

AliSxo · 01/12/2019 19:41

Has anyone else had similar on IC's? I'm afraid they're just indents - I'm 10dpo xx
