@BabyB19 hahaha that made me LOL!

Jonesbabynumber1 · 09/12/2019 19:56

@BabyB19 😂😂 when I’m in the tww I’m always looking at my nipples. I caved and did an opk tonight for curiosity it was low I won’t be doing another one it just caused me stress. I don’t get on with them.

MrsCl19 · 09/12/2019 20:20

@Jonesbabynumber1 I don't understand opk at all but i just like doing them makes me feel more chilled 😂

BabyB19 · 09/12/2019 20:42

Round the bend @Blondeandbroody 🤣
@Jonesbabynumber1 there's no point you doing them anyway if you're still temping and BD'ing every other day you're going to catch the fertile window regardless it's just something else for you to worry about isn't it!

@MrsCl19 I find them less stressful than doing ICs and it feeds the addiction but some people get really stressed about it x

Sorry @BabyB19 been missing. Been away to Salzburg for the weekend which was a lovely break..I’m still temping and hoping for a BFP at Christmas xxx

BabyB19 · 09/12/2019 21:51

No worries @ceebee21 just like to check in and make sure everyone's ok. Hope you had a lovely trip! That's a nice way to kill time ☺️ x

How are you doing @BabyB19 whatDPO are you. X

Blondeandbroody · 09/12/2019 23:06

So implantation spotting,

Is it possible that it's very small amounts and like rust coloured, pale brown with an orangey slight tinge?

I am not sure if my DPO, I could be anything from 6-8DPO. Probs too early but who the fuck knows haha!

Had some this evening and yesterday just medium spots on my liner...

Hmmmmmm, curiouser and curiouser!

BabyB19 · 09/12/2019 23:13

I think I ovulated today @ceebee21 🤷🏽‍♀️
@Blondeandbroody I wouldn't know really 🤦🏽‍♀️ is it unusual for you to have spotting? Are you in a proper cycle now? Sorry if you've already said but it's hard to keep up 🤣 x

OP posts:
Blondeandbroody · 09/12/2019 23:26

@BabyB19 I can't remember what I've said myself and on what thread haha so don't worry!

So, I had semi regular AFs on the pill I had one in October and then one 30 day's later in November and I stopped the pill the day it started on 18th November. They were very normal bleeds I haven't always had them regularly but when I get them they're very normal AFs for me.

So it's hard to say I suppose, it's about a clean a break as I could've given myself but this cycle is still very much up in the air. Everything has seemed like a normal cycle so far so I am hopeful because I was still having regular AF and I stopped the pill when I did that I've started my first cycle as a normal enough one?! Wishful thinking, probably haha!

I can't say I've ever had spotting, ever, but it's not something you notice unless you're a TTC madwoman tracking every little twinge and sign of something or nothing ha!

MrsCl19 · 10/12/2019 06:23

@Blondeandbroody coming off the pill is just crazy, our bodies literally go off on one doing what they like don't they 😂 I came off end of Oct and had my first af 6 weeks later so I'm hoping my cycle is regular this month but who knows 🤷🏼‍♀️

I thought my body was gearing up to ov but it doesn't look like it is just yet so I'm thinking my cycles are longer and it will be next week

Blondeandbroody · 10/12/2019 07:10

@MrsCl19 I know it's crazy huh!

it's frustrating me that I feel like everything is normal because I did have AF whilst on the pill and all the right stuff has been happening thus far, so I am just expecting it to stay the same cycle as it was on pill just more regular but I can't be sure so I keep doubting it.

If I don't get a BFP I'll be glad that AF brings with it some clarity about my cycle and I can start next cycle with a better understanding!

Wish I'd come off sooner but OH wasn't keen.

Cheetos · 10/12/2019 07:39

@Blondeandbroody were you on the pill for long?

I was on it for about 12 years. Came off in July and now my skin is all oily (was always dry before), I have spots and so much dandruff Confused

Blondeandbroody · 10/12/2019 07:49

@Cheetos I was on it for about 4 years I think, before that I was on the implant but the period pains were unbearable so they switched me to the mini pill.

I haven't really noticed anything different since coming off it but whether I get my AF when I expect to will solve the mystery of whether my cycles are crazy or return to normal Quickly

BabyB19 · 10/12/2019 08:04

When you're on the pill you don't have AF you have breakthrough bleeds @Blondeandbroody so when you stop taking it your body reverts back to your old cycle before you was on any contraception. So I'm your case, this spotting you've have will be the first day of your cycle so count day one from when it started. It's exactly what happened to me when I came off the pill and I asked the Dr. I was confused as it was barely there and I had been having much more bleeding on the pill x

Well it's now 1dpo for me, and so the tww begins 😂. I really don't actually think we dtd enough at all this month but we shall see in 13 days 🤣

Jonesbabynumber1 · 10/12/2019 09:06

Does anyone else have cramping and bloating around ovulation? I’m cd 12 and I do think ovulation will be soon. I’ve got watery cm but I never have loads and never get egg white x

dizzy85 · 10/12/2019 09:14

@Jonesbabynumber1 I do every month, I can even tell which side I must be ovulating from coz of the cramps on one side, this month was the left side.

BabyB19 · 10/12/2019 09:27

Me too @dizzy85 @Jonesbabynumber1 I felt a sharp twinge yesterday so assuming that was it, I'm also craving chocolate and sweets which other people get when AF due don't they 🤦🏽‍♀️ 🤷🏽‍♀️ I'm counting 1dpo today so I will now be due Christmas Eve x

Ah I'm joining! TTC DC2! On month 6 so really going to put more effort in from now haha! Have started to check if cervix low as it's saving me from doing pregnancy tests, I know as soon as I feel it that I'm out and that's about a week before AF due
