Hey ladies,

Posted on a few threads but think it's about the time I might know what I'm sorta on about! Ha!

Looking for some TTC Buddies I can what's app :-)

A bit about me, I'm 28.. 29 in April.. my husband is a year younger than me. We've been married just over a year and together for 9 years this July.

I came off the pill Cerelle 24th November after years of the pill then implant and then the pill again. Never had periods on any. Just a few withdrawals when I missed a few pills.

Anyway! Been actively TTC since my withdrawal bleed 25-29th November.

Finally after a December of no Flo she's arrived today. So finally I can accurately start trying to track on Ovia! GrinGrin

What's your story?

I'm really enjoying the film and book recommendations and the aims for health and wellbeing. Definitely feel that a few well placed wines are helpful too!

I don't feel 'right'. This is either run aftermath (my poor bum muscles!!), actual pregnancy symptoms, an illness or a really good example of the power of a brain that really wants to believe, bless it. I've been hot for the last few days, I'm very slightly light headed at times, my boobs are sore (normal for me) and I'm hungry/ a bit sicky. There was definitely a bfn yesterday and I'm only 12 dpo today I think. I just don't quite feel 'right'. Confused

In other news, and this is something that's been bothering me for a few months, what's happened to Percy pigs?? Why do they taste chemically? Sad

professorastrocat · 03/02/2020 09:41

Ah sorry for all those testing today and all the Bfns. Rest, feel all that you need to feel, then its onwards and upwards!

I'm mega emotional today, which can be a normal pmt symptom (obv) but not every month. My little boy was a bit emotional at school drop off and now I'm sat here like the worlds ending!! Af due a week today I reckon so still a bit to go but no symptoms to report really. Very faint boob pain. Nothing at all like last months boob pain which was so full on and straight from ovulation among with other weird symptoms which is why I was convinced I was pregnant. I obviously just vary so much month by month.

@MrsTwentySeven I have everything crossed for testing tomorrow!

Hatepickinganame · 03/02/2020 09:45

@Sausage1990 ah so theres a good chance i actually ovd on the friday then not the monday like i though 🙄 which would only make me 10dpo or thereabouts 😂 and would mean we probably missed the chance. So this time I'll be prepared for anything from cd10 to cd15 haha.

Its cd24 today, af due in 2 days (possibly 4) and i dont seem to have any symptoms today, preg or pms 🙄

Hope we are all doing well, sorry to those who have had af show up, and 🤞 to anyone who is planning to test!

Supper16 · 03/02/2020 09:51

AF due tomorrow. Don't come don't come don't come don't come.....

paintfairy · 03/02/2020 10:41

Sorry to all those of you that have been got by AF! Clearly October babies were not for us. I'm liking the sound of November? 😂

Did you test? @MrsTwentySeven

Good luck to everyone else still in this month!

Wise0wl · 03/02/2020 11:02

@Bumblebee413 I’m with you on the hot/feeling sick/either ill, pregnant or wishful thinking (at 10dpo). I’ve also gone for a wee four times this morning thinking AF is here because I feel so rubbish but no sign yet!

RE Percy pigs, I used to love them until they changed and became veggie but that was a while ago!

@Supper16 I’ve got my fingers crossed for you 🙂

Sausage1990 · 03/02/2020 11:18

@Bumblebee413 I'm enjoying the recommendations too 😊 I'm definitely putting the witcher on my to watch list... I've just started watching the new series of Sabrina which is aimed at teenagers but I'm quite enjoying it!

Yes a healthy lifestyle is all about balance and wine is part of that balance haha (and I work as a dietitian so that's official 😉)

Also percy pigs have gone veggy but you can still buy the original versions too, the non-veggy ones... May be worth a try. Xx

notetaker · 03/02/2020 12:19

Afternoon everyone, hope Monday is being kind to you.

@paintfairy sorry to hear that AF arrived Flowers

@Elmlee good to hear from you! I do always think of you and wonder how you're getting on!

AF due for me tomorrow or Wednesday. If I get to Friday I'll start getting excited...

Lola871 · 03/02/2020 15:04

I've just realised my boobs don't hurt like they normally do after ov, so now unsure if I've ovulated or not.....why do our bodies change things up so much!

Hatepickinganame · 03/02/2020 15:47

Ah ive just found the perfect way to tell oh when we finally get a bfp! Note to self, internet shopping is bad. I was looking for a valentines gift.... 🤣🤣

How is everyone today? Any testers?

Needallthesleep · 03/02/2020 17:17

I’ve just figured out the perfect way to get a BFP...

I’ve bought a pair of those super expensive period pants, so surely I’ve got to get a BFP now and not be able to use them for a year?!

notetaker · 03/02/2020 17:20

@Needallthesleep It’s a sure thing 😂

Hatepickinganame · 03/02/2020 17:28

@Needallthesleep let me know if that works!! 😂

MrsTwentySeven · 03/02/2020 17:28

To those that asked...not tested since 9dpo
Going to test on an IC this evening as I can’t help it 😭 But I have increased CM as though AF is starting soon...so I don’t have hope at all. I’m going to assume AF starts tomorrow tbh.
Will update!

Hatepickinganame · 03/02/2020 17:36

@MrsTwentySeven everything is crossed for the very first bfp!!! Will be checking like a crazy person to see x

MrsTwentySeven · 03/02/2020 17:56

Unfortunately not @hatepickinganame 😭 BFN 11DPO evening on a cheapie ASDA year...I’m out! 🤷🏾‍♀️ nvm ....End of Feb / March bus here I come!

paintfairy · 03/02/2020 18:01

@MrsTwentySeven oh no! Surely not?

Hatepickinganame · 03/02/2020 18:03

@MrsTwentySeven ah sorry honey. Hope youre ok x

professorastrocat · 03/02/2020 18:04

@Needallthesleep yes that sounds like a plan, if you get to use them let us know what they're like as I'm considering getting some.

@MrsTwentySeven so sorry ☹️☹️💕

MrsTwentySeven · 03/02/2020 18:05

@paintfairy @hatepickaname I'm ok ladies! I was expecting it if I'm honest😊 Now just waiting for AF to show until I can rejoin the TTC haha

MrsTwentySeven · 03/02/2020 18:05

@professorastrocat thank you lovely x

professorastrocat · 03/02/2020 18:08

@Lola871 I don't know but it makes you crazy doesn't it!! Maybe we experience things differently if we're constantly monitoring our bodies for changes....things we wouldn't normally pay attention to

paintfairy · 03/02/2020 18:08

@MrsTwentySeven I think we all were expecting it. But I did take it hard. Ok now though, I'm over it. Lol. Planning my next fertile week! Ordered preseed and also bought more conception vits today.

This bus journey might be a long one.....

Jellybean252 · 03/02/2020 18:13

@super16 me too! Wishing she doesn't turn up! Although deep down I know she will

Sorry to all those that have had BFNs. Hopefully we have better luck next time! Onwards and upwards.

Recently I've been focusing too much on conceiving. It has consumed my thoughts in every way possible. Almost like an unhealthy secret addiction. I'm going to try to go with the flow from now on - if it happens it happens.. (may not be saying this when I have my next fertile period though haha!)

2020wisher · 03/02/2020 18:48

Hi ladies. I did a four hour hold this afternoon deciding to use my last test, nearly wet myself trying to find the actual test when time was up 😂 anyway, BFN which I already knew when I wiped and saw blood 🤦🏻‍♀️ AF is here!

I’m feeling pretty upbeat, like others have said this will give me a kick up the bum to sort out my health regime. Mine consists of daily yoga, loosely eating according to slimming world, and possibly some running. Also I see this an extra month to get my house decluttered and to save some more money.

So roll on Feb 19th when I will hopefully be crazy fertile!
