@Quiffy thank you! I hope we both get them soon! and yes, you can set up a secret group, you add people using their email address so we had a couple people you could PM and they would add you. We also named it something really obscure so even if someone saw the name they wouldn't know.

@Mumofboys17 been tracking ovulation since May, but didn't actually ovulate until June. No chance of pushing it to being 12 months sadly as number 1 isn't even 12 months old yet Blush I'm thinking I have low progesterone so I'm just wondering if they can give me something to sort that out. Before number 1 I was on the progesterone only pill but obviously that won't really help this time!

@Daisydays1 big hugs as I've got a similar story and have been spotting for ages now. Has yours got any heavier/bright red? If not you might not be totally out, but it's still not hopeful if you've had a negative today :(

Mumofboys17 · 08/01/2020 11:00

@Beau2019 sorry meant to say I'm East Midlands haha, looks like we're dotted all over!!

@Quiffy was that for WhatsApp or FB?

@Sunflower2019 oh how weird!! I love the idea of us all really knowing each other but I'm actually a bit terrified at the same time 😂

Daisydays1 · 08/01/2020 11:00

@sunflower2019 that's definitely a good plan 😁, congratulations on your news too so pleased for you x

@Mumofboys17 I wouldn't say it is alot really had two red spots on 7dpo before bed and 8+9dpo had a bit more but brown watery discharge spotting and today only had a bit of brown watery discharge so far.
But now going into 4th day so guessing to long to be implantion, af due Sunday tested today on one of those cheapies and was negative.

I don't normally bleed between periods but they can vary a little dates wise but normally would have a really bad cramp and then start spotting and then start full blown af the next day .

I have had aching on and off for days now so wonder if it really the start of af after testing negative today

Ange211 · 08/01/2020 11:04

@Quiffy diet is going a bit better today. But it's still early 😂

Sunflower2019 · 08/01/2020 11:29

Thanks @Daisydays1 😊 💞

@Mumofboys17 It is scary but sweet, I think Facebook would be easier, better lay out etc too! Xx

Ellsbells112 · 08/01/2020 11:33

Haha what have I missed?! Just read all the messages! Am I the only londoner here then!?? Would love a meet up you're all super wicked it's great! Best thread ever the crazy gang 😍

@quiffy @ange211 guys lol clean eating is hard, I'm sitting here contemplating getting up and going gym 😩 and I also want a second coffee but scared Ill hinder progress if there's a little egg doing it's thang 🍳 ffs

I'm with you ALL literally feel like whyyyyy is it not happening!! I already feel out this month don't feel any symptols at all at 9dpo and honestly I can't be fucked to sit here hoping every day to feel something!!! It's doing my absolutely nut in! I'm going To TRY and focus on losing weight lol and dtd around ovulation but I can't mope about anymore it's not healthy it's annoying it's all I think about! Gaahh thank. God for you lot!! My OH doesn't even listen to me, 😒 x

Quiffy · 08/01/2020 12:30

@Beau2019 yeah I’m up in Scotland, although my DH is from your neck of the woods.

@ellbells112 @Ange211 I’ve not quite made it to the gym life. I’m more of a slow walker. I should really get my bum up and do some housework. The coffee thing is so hard, never know what to do!

@Daisydays1 I’ve seen others on here with Ib that lasted a week or it could be the start of af. Fingers crossed it’s the former. Don’t count yourself out just yet and try not to worry yourself. Our bodies can be a pain.

@Fredthespider @Mumofboys17 Sounds like a plan!

Beau2020x · 08/01/2020 12:51

Beau2019 was stressing me out because it's no longer 2019 - new year new me and all that. So sight name change

Katie1109 · 08/01/2020 13:02

Hi girls x
How’s everyone doing?x who is left to test? x any symptoms to report? :)
@Sunflower2019 how are you? Has it sunk in yet? x
I’m CD 5 today so obviously nothing at all to report, O day on about 9-10 days x

Beau2020x · 08/01/2020 13:13

Girls no idea what's going on, I'm getting severe pain on my right side. Like a pulling pin prick feeling. So bad I keeled over in the middle of the work kitchen 😟 I've had this before, it's similar to ovulation pains but NEVER at this point in my cycle. I went to hospital 3 years ago with the same thing as suspected ectopic but I think I was much further long in my cycle. I'm only CD7! Took a test on Monday CD5 and was negative so sure it can't be ectopic??

Mumofboys17 · 08/01/2020 13:24

@Beau2020x like the new name! Very organised of you 😂
Has your AF completely stopped? Assuming if cd7 then it is? I only ask because I always bleed for 6 days at least and I get cramps when finishing xx

Ange211 · 08/01/2020 13:30

@Katie1109 AF due on the 16th for me so getting close to poas angst setting in! No symptoms as yet although light, intermittent, dull cramping last night for around 20 minutes. May or may not be significant though as I do have suspected endometriosis which causes me to get AF cramps at totally random times!
@Beau2020x I think an ectopic can give you a false negative? I'd phone your GP for advice.

Beau2020x · 08/01/2020 13:41

@Mumofboys17 yeah it stopped 2 days ago. I've deffo had this exact feeling before just can't remember when in my cycle it was. It's actually really painful!

@Ange211 I'm going to go another test at home tonight. I have shit loads of ICs that need using and one FRER but I'm saving that for a special occasion 😂

Ellsbells112 · 08/01/2020 15:55

@Beau2020x they say ectopic pain starts from 6 weeks onward because that's when it gets big and painful. What you could have is like a cyst on your ovary?? Maybe I don't know x

@Quiffy well I decided to have that extra coffee and went gym haha a very productive day too! The gym always makes me feel better and this weight needs to shift now! Thought I got rid of it for good hah! 🙄

How's everyone feeling?

Beau2020x · 08/01/2020 16:37

@ellsbells112 yeah I'm sure you are right! Like I say, they sent me to hospital for the exact same thing a few years back and they couldn't find a thing. Couldn't even find the ovary that I had pain in, I've always been sure it's a cyst because I ALWAYS get pain in that ovary.

Still paranoid they couldn't find my ovary haha!

Ellsbells112 · 08/01/2020 17:38

@Beau2020x haha understandable! I had the same thing in October, massive pain in my ovary and then I started bleeding like af? So weird, the doc thought ectopic but then the doc at A&E scoffed at the GPS advise and said probably a cyst and an early miscarriage? 😐 That still baffles me but any who, thankfully not ectopic

BntTowers · 08/01/2020 18:12

I feel like I've missed so much today!
I didn't mean to bring anyone down, I know it will happen for everyone and there's lots of people (me included) still in for a shot this cycle 😊
We are off to the cinema tonight so will hopefully get out of my head for a bit, we both also got our holiday days signed off from work today so we can look into booking that asap!
I'm in North Yorkshire, where doesn't seem to be anyone else close by.

Quiffy · 08/01/2020 18:26

@Beau2020x hope you’re okay! Has it eased off any?

@ellsbell112 I know the feeling, lost loads and it’s just creeped back on boo. Well done for getting to the gym!

@Katie1109 are you still getting the weird symptoms?

Beau2020x · 08/01/2020 18:34

@Quiffy thank you! It has but it comes and goes. If it's anything like last time it's a mystery and nothing to worry about 🙈

BntTowers · 08/01/2020 18:43

@Beau2020x how are you feeling? I had similar experience a few years ago and it was appendicitis, maybe get checked for that?

Symptomspotter86 · 08/01/2020 18:49

Love the idea of a FB/whatsapp group. I was just thinking today thank god I have this group.

@Ellsbells112 I'm based in london!! Just to make things super stressful though me and OH are in the process of buying a house in east Midlands though. @Mumofboys17 did you say that is where you are from?

Mumofboys17 · 08/01/2020 19:23

@Ellsbells112 Yes it is indeed!! How funny, maybe you'll be my new next door neighbour 😉😂😂 x

@Beau2020x as long as you're not in agony then hopefully it's just 'one of those things', how odd! Body's are weird 🤨 x

Quiffy · 08/01/2020 19:39

@Beau2020x I agree with @Mumofboys17 hopefully it’s one of those things and nothing sinister. Keep an eye on it! Or a feel.

Beau2020x · 08/01/2020 20:44

I'm feeling fine, thank you girlies :) I had a panic on before when I practically fell down on the floor at work. Oh I am dramatic. I'm sure it's just my super dominant ovary doing is thang 🙈

Starting OPKs tomorrow. Can't wait to see that smug little face staring at me. I'm also going to try SMEP this month - anyone else doing it?

I'm saving shaving my lady garden as a special treat for tomorrow's SMEP start date so will be lovely and silky smooth for OH. Oh isn't he lucky. He has no idea, the SMEP I'll keep to myself 😂😂😂😂

Beau2020x · 08/01/2020 20:46

But just to clarify, my OH is desperate for a baby. Just wants to know absolutely zero about 'trying' or ovulation or any of that. I'm not even sure he knows what ovulation is. This is the man that thought you wee'd out of your vagina... 😐😐😐
