Hi girls, I have created new thread. Hope you’ll see it x

@Quiffy I know right :( wondering if it’s dp sperm possibly, they didn’t seem concerned but I think we should go for some second opinions x

Hey girlies,

Anyone got any symptoms going on? I’ve had cramps tonight.. but not taking it too seriously as feeling seriously deflated x

@Sunflower2019 I've had cramps today too, normally I'd be more intrigued but after AF came a week early last month I'm a little less optimistic. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I'm putting this bad vibe all down to January blues, what a shit time to have to go through TTC as well 😩

Wish we all lived near each other. Could just go out and get smashed 😂😂😂 not that it solves anything!!!! 😬

@quiffy @Sunflower2019
Yep that's what I mean I think that's why it's blowing my mind because I don't understand why. It might sound stupid but it's because of my previous I just don't get it. Anyway my OH has finally listened to what I've been saying he's actually thinking about IUI I think it's called? Where they wash the sperm and then put it in my egg? Anyway I'm going to try this letrozole next month that my sister gave me and then the month after that I'll get my bloods done and I'll get his morphology checked and if all is fine but its just not working I think we will try this IUI business! He said that will stop my mood swings hahaha

It is shit and we all know it is. I think this month if my period comes I'm literally just going to cry!

Anyway... How is everyone? I'm 6dpo and feel nothing x

Morning all x
It’s without a doubt af, although a bit light I had few clots as well so that’s definitely bloody witch 😭 CD2 today. FW from next Monday/Tuesday apparently x

@Sunflower2019 definitely try and get a second opinion, even if it’s just to put your mind at ease.

@Mumofboys17 that would be wonderful. Can you imagine 🤣 I forgot about January blues - makes a lot of sense!

I’ve been up since 4am with horrific cramps. Starting to wonder if the effects of the pill are wearing off and my true periods from hell are coming back, which is one of the reasons I went on the pill in first place. Hopefully this is a good sign for TTC, otherwise there might be a murder 🤣

Sorry to see some of the AF arriving. Also the January blues has hit me uqite hard at the moment, I've still got AF due 11/12th so a way off, but I have a feeling I'm out. I've had cramps today and just my mood has been really off. But the again January is always a really crap time of year for me so maybe the TTC is a bit too much at the moment.

@Ellsbells112 sounds like sensible steps. Hopefully helps out, even better hopefully a bfp this month. Everything crossed 🤞🤞

@Katie1109 af is total balls. Here’s to a bfp next cycle ❤️

@Ellsbells112 I think sometimes even seeking medical help and getting the ball rolling, even if not necessarily needed, can help take just a little bit of pressure off. Makes you feel like you're actually doing something! A family member of ours really struggled to conceive (already had an older child and then a miscarriage at 8 weeks), they decided to go down the IVF route and a week before their initial appt her BFP came! 😂 you really can never tell, stay positive ❤️

@Katie1109 sorry lovely 😢 just wish I had some magic words to make you feel better. If AF had a face I'd be smacking her across it right now 😤 on the plus side you only have to wait a week or so before your fertile window starts up again! I'm still waiting for AF 😂 sooooo long!!!

Don't judge me... did a test. Only 11DPO so don't know what I was expecting. Also might not even be that as bot sure when i ovulated this time so just guessing based on EWCM.

Anyway pretty sure it is a BFN but seem to see a line I've never seen before on my tests. Is it an evap or am I just imagining things? Hard to see in pics but here we are

@mumofboys17 16th for me too. First month using OPKs, ovia, smep & conceive plus 😂 throwing everything but the kitchen sink at it!

No other symptoms to report other than my sore boobs (started around ov) have gone away which I think is probably a bad sign! Also have cramp but I have that almost constantly anyway so don't think that's relevant 🤷

@Symptomspotter86 sorry I don't see anything but it could just be the lighting. Maybe try inverting it?

@Symptomspotter86 I think I do see a line but no colour maybe an indent? Defo worth testing in a day or two

@BntTowers hope you’re okay. Try and take care of yourself ❤️

@Ange211 @quiffy the pics dont really do it justice but all the same it is very faint/ more likely to be an indent.

I'll test in a few days and step away from the sticks!!!

Maybe try a CB digital? I had a super faint line with my last pregnancy but the CB digital confirmed it straight away X

I can see a shadow ... I'd check in a couple of days!

@Quiffy @Mumofboys17 @Sunflower2019
Thanks for all you guys support ❤️ I really appreciate it and yeah, looking into things just seems to. Help pass the time and make you feel like you're doing something. I have no patience and 5 months feels like forever to me when I know other people have been trying longer!! But honestly I just can't get my head around it happening easily before and not now it's why I think there's an issue. There probably isn't!! But again... Suuuuper impatient. I'll be interested to see what this letrozole does! Get those eggs jiggling girl!!

@Katie1109 sorry about af it's so awful xx

we are in this together!!!
@BntTowers sorry you're feeling down the January blues really do bloody hit don't they!!

Plus side I had some amazing sex last night 😂😂😂😂🌃💋 4am stuff woohoo, staying at my sisters didn't allow for full blown noise so we totally made up for it. My hairs ruined but totally worth it! Why can't we have sex like that when I'm ovulating?! Hahahaha

@Symptomspotter86 I'm sorry I can't see anything, try in a few days??
I'm too scared to do pregnancy tests 😭 lol

@Symptomspotter86 I can see what you’re seeing, there is a shadow there. I had few of those unfortunately turned up to be nothing, I don’t trust FRER anymore x I hope it will turn out to be positive for you though x

Sorry to see AF has arrived for some :(

I've been so ill this past week I've not really taken too much thought to anything, thankfully we DTD just before I got really ill on the day I got the peak, but it's a one shot wonder this month so not feeling too hopeful. 8DPO today and I've been spotting every day since 2DPO. I'll give it another month before I go to the GP as I think I have low progesterone.

Crossing my fingers for some more BFPs this month! They should hopefully start coming soon :) x

@Ellsbells112 isn't that always the way!! I think it's like the stress of getting the right days etc when that's not in the equation anymore it's like you can both relax!! Pleased you had a good night/morning though 😉 haha x

@Symptomspotter86 I've got to be honest, I can see a shadow but it may just be that. Wait another 48hours then maybe try again? I really want to say it's a BFP but after so many BFN's myself I can't give others false hope either ❤️❤️

Thanks girls. I will write this one off and test in a couple of days with a CB as well.

I'm really trying to focus on losing weight and being healthy in Jan to give me something else to focus on and stop getting depressed. I definitely have weight to lose so doing that will help TTC chances as well. Cutting out the alcohol is helping too so I dont get the boozy blues. Made about 10 batch meals in my slow cooker this weekend to take to work and so it is all prepared for my meals.

Sending all my love and baby dust to you ladies. January is a hard time enough never mind without ttc. I swear there are so many babies in my life at the moment. I'm about to go to a bday lunch for my best friend who is 6 months pregnant. She never wanted kids and got accidentally pregnant and decided to keep it.

@symptomspotter86 I'm doing the same - I would like to get 2 stone off but also get back to good home cooked food & save some cash. Spend far too much on convenience, take away & eating out!
It's hard seeing people in these situations. My bro just announced dc3 before Xmas - they just seem to look at each other and are Pg.

@Ellsbells112 well jell! We defo need something a bit less clinical after the rush of Christmas. Might be my January resolution 🤞😂

@Symptomspotter86 @Ange211 same here! Too much takeaways lately. My fridge is full of greens and protein ready for tomorrow. Just got that last big Lindt bear to destroy... hope you survived your lunch okay ❤️
