We did smep this month. I can let you know on the 16th if it's worked 😂

@BntTowers you didn't bring me or anyone else down I don't think! We alllll get those days and the more months in I think the more of those days you have!! That's why this is a great place to vent it because no one else gets it let me tell ya! What you gonna watch??

@Quiffy we've got this, we gonna lose 2 stone and mean whole get preggo and put the 2 stone back on woohoo 😂😂 stretch marks here I come (got plenty anyway)

@mumofboys17 ohhh now I'm paronoid 😂 I have no filter anyway haha!! And @Symptomspotter86 all Londoners ay I'm gonna make things spicy and say I'm in South East London!! 😂 Let's hear it then what side of the river are you lot on?

@Beau2020x LOOOOOL stop it!! Listen I am sooooo hairy right now and I'm like meh you must weather the forest when it's not ovulation time, only 2 days prior to ovulation time will I make it pretty!!! 😂😂

@ellsbells112 I am East london!

I am weighing myself tomorrow after 1 week of dieting. If I've not lost 2 stone I'm going to be devastated haha.

Sooo funny on the shaving. I can never be bothered to make it perfect. Married life is a killer for romance...

@Symptomspotter86 whoop whoop East London! I'm going to hot yoga in Hackney this Saturday - Check me out 😂
I know, I normally wax but haven't Iast few months just the longness of it getting pulled around by a woman I don't know giblets and all out 😂 but can't stand the itch from shaving!
I'm itching to weigh myself the end of this week but when I do I'll take it with a pinch of salt. Here's some advise, your week 1 will not be the same as your week 2, you are in different physiological stages, do you get what I mean? You'll still have lost if you done it correctly but it will be a lot of water weight the first week. Keep going and look to how your clothes fit in a month I say

@ellsbells112 I love yoga but never done hot yoga as the thought of it freaks me out.

I also hate a shaving itch. It is horrible and so un ladylike scratching your bits haha.

Yeah when I have lost weight before the first week is amazing then it seems so much harder from then onwards. Tbh I'd just be happy with 1 or 2 pounds a week for the next couple of months. Ordered my vitamins and supplements you all recommended today. Gonna shove the male ones down OH gob daily.

Anyone ever had a really warm/hot feeling in there womb ? That comes and goes feeling a bit concerned about the warm/hot womb sensation

Also brown spotting has turned into dark red now and seems more when wiping etc but still not a period flow

So confused cd24 now usually 28 day cycle

@Katie1109 yes kind of but still strange.. one minute I feel normal the next off. I’m now focusing on some redecorating at home :) want more of a white theme xxxx

Honestly girls, I don't even get the itch anymore I've been doing it for so many years and I've never had the courage to move my flaps around for another woman to wax it 😂😂😂

@Daisydays1 nooo not had that one before?? Sometimes the spotting can be implantation?

Got up and went for a wee and forgot to do OPK 🤦🏼‍♀️ tonight it is

Omg girls - because I have NOTHING better to do at work I came across this method for TTC...

So after DTD, you put a moon cup straight in there to keep all the swimmers in and can also add a little pre-seed/conceive plus in there. Is this totally OTT or am I in fact OTT if I am consider trying this...?

I swear last time I got pregnant I got up right after DTD and cleaned up. Plus the logistics worry me as I need to wee right after sex or I get cystitis.

I normally get up and wee straight away BUT this month I haven't. Again time will tell if it works or not 🤷

@Symptomspotter86 haha good! I'm not talking to my OH but I still left all needed vitamins next to his wallet 😂

@Beau2020x haha I have heard of that!! I'm just scared about this cup business?? I just literally tilt my hips up and stay there for 20 minutes praying one of them gets up there... Hasn't worked yet 😂

@Daisydays1 sorry hun I don't know??

Morning ladies! Sorry wasn’t on much yesterday, had a busy day at work and home x how are we all? x
I’m CD6 today so obviously absolutely nothing to report x I’ve got a smear test tomorrow but that’s just because I was due one x can people that do smear tests actually answer any fertility related questions? Or do any other tests while I’m there? Bloods etc? x

@Katie1109 that's interesting because I just got a letter saying I'm due for another smear! I'm worried about going, not for the smear I'm fine with them, but it hindering the whole TTC process?

As for the questions, it depends what they are trained in? I know the one I went to last time was mostly just a sexual health nurse and her main job was carrying out smears, STI tests and contraception.

@Beau2020x I am planning the moon cup method this cycle, I just bought a new one (I think it was this thread that I shared that my cat ate the end off the last one 😹). Used pre seed for the first time last cycle so worth a try. My DH sometimes gets overcome with the pressure of delivering so if he does I’m still going to try moon cup up, and if he struggles we’re going to try alternative method with moon cup. Will see how it goes!

@Ange211 @ellsbells112 @symptomspotter86 the second week is brutal for scale numbers. I’m still undecided on whether or not I’m going to weigh myself once a week or once a month. I can sometimes get a bit crazy obsessed. Although TTC is keeping my crazy busy hehe.

@Sunflower2019 white theme sounds lovely - are we nesting 😉😉

@Daisydays1 sounds very odd! Never had the heat thing, hopefully it’s a good sign and not a weird af

I’m so glad others have the itchy problem (another plus of this thread!)I’ve always shaved but it can be brutal. The best I’ve had recently is intuition razor, it seems to keep the itching at bay! I feel anxious enough going to the upstairs hairdresser never mind a waxer 😹

I fell asleep watching inception last night. Instead of enjoying some Tom Hardy dreams, I had a really vivid dream about getting three bfps, I then ‘woke up’ and thinking it was a sign did a test and got another bfp. It was just a dream within a dream (cheers Inception) and took me awhile to realise it wasn’t true 😭😭

@quiffy @Ange211 @Ellsbells112 I lost 6 pounds in my first week. Like we said though mainly water weight and then next week will be the killer!
@quiffy yeah it was you that said about your cat haha. I'm not sure about the mooncup after DTD method. Makes me feel a bit queasy thinking about it, but maybe worth a try. With the pre seed do you use the applicators? Is it a total mood kill? I feel like OH also struggles to perform when it is so planned out so me then stringing myself full of lube beforehand probably wont help haha

@symptomspotter86 I only use it if I know he’s not going to finish, then I mix ‘it’ with pressed and go from there haha. Not the most romantic but needs must. I think if I used it during it be too much

@Beau2020x you kill me 😂😂😂 honestly I started waxing last summer and I have never looked back!! No more post shave itch 😬
It really doesn't hurt as bad as you'd expect, bit like waxing your legs really lol best way I can explain it!

I have never in my life used a moon cup.. but you've all intrigued me 😂 so from what I understand you stick it in after DTD to keep the liquid man gold in over night? 🤔

I haven't really used pre seed this time but I did when I conceived DS so reckon it can deffo make a difference xx

@Katie1109 I think it depends who's doing the smear. For instance if it's a nurse with lots of experience and they have the time they'll probably have an informal chat with you but probs won't do bloods unless you've seen a GP first xx

@Mumofboys17 correct!

@Mumofboys17 @Quiffy upon conducting further research apparently it's pointless as all you are doing is leaving poor sperm up in your fanjo over night for no reason. Apparently the best swimmers and therefore viable ones will be up in your cervix within minutes.

Meh, can't harm giving it a go?

Don’t see the harm in giving it a go. I’ll try anything at this point 😹😹

@Symptomspotter86 well done on your 6 pounds!! That's great! And my OH really likes the feel of pre seed so it's not a total kill joy.

@quiffy Ahhh that dream sounds awful I feel your pain, I've had dreams of bfps too such a shit thing our minds do to us.

Can I LITERALLY just vent this here.
Now saying "I have been feeling really sick during the beginning of my pregnancy" is so super fine but like am I crazy for being peed off that me and a few others who have been trying even longer and have issues with their cycles (others not. Me) desperate to have a baby have to then hear someone say how they don't think they can get through it and how it's so awful.
Listen, I'll open my arms to sickness every day just to be pregnant. 🙄 I just think it's kinda insensitive is all, maybe I'm being over sensitive. But like you want something then get this miracle and then complain as if it's the end of the world. Like I said, there's a diff to saying you're dealing with sickness to saying omg I can't handle it lol give meeeee the sickness give meeee the baby haha

Arghhhh guys 😩😥 I really want to test I'm due on Monday I know its too early I know it'll just hurt and I just want to cry and I'm OBVIOUSLY feeling pms so I know my period is going to come and I'm sick of it 😭😭😭😭😭 I just feel blah! That's the worst thing because it's literally precursor to af showing up when I feel like this fml

Here's my chart and I was getting happy over the dip but online people say there's no such thing as an implantation dip 😩

@Ellsbells112 OH HUN I feel you!!! I was on a thread last week about someone asking if it was still possible for them to get a BFP after getting a BFN at 11DPO and then some complete random jumps on the thread asking for advice if they might be pregnant and it would be the worst thing ever if they were. Like please, F off!!

My cousin struggled to conceive with her 1st and then fell pregnant again when her 1st was 3 months old. Every single f'ing day she posts something on Facebook complaining about how hard is it and how much pain shes in etc etc. Go away and be happy for the fact YOU ARE PREGNANT.

I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for you. AF symptoms and pregnancy symptoms are usually the exact same!
