So, the subject says it all! Although I feel I may have more a chance this month.
I came off the pill December - last month we was out. But this month, I apparently ovulated yesterday 12/01/20. We did the deed twice 2 days before ovulation... so today Iam 1dpo.

Anyone in the same that wants to join?
I really want to try not symptom spot, but yesterday I felt the cramps - which led me to think it was ovulation.

Hope everyone is ok! I think AF is on her way. Cross fingers, at least I will know where I am if she shows x

Kates21 · 30/01/2020 06:32

Morning @Kates21, tough week here too... We've had the children's mum making threats to remove the kids back to her home country, our child maintenance annual review, issues with my partners brother and just overloaded at work. When it rains it pours huh! Looking forward to dry January being over, that's for sure... I need a wine!!

Tashadream123 · 30/01/2020 08:26

Took another FRER this morning and it's deffinately negetive 😭

Kates21 · 30/01/2020 09:17

@LV1987

Wow, I’m sorry to hear all this! I’ve got my child maintenance review coming up, my sons dad is an asshole so no doubt there’ll be issues!
Give us a break! Xx

Thanks @Kates21, ironically over the weekend we were talking about how happy we are with the relationship we've managed to build with their mum... And now this. I'm sorry your sons dad is an ahole! I'm still holding out hope (naively perhaps) that one day everyone involved will agree with what I've been saying all along, which is that none of us grown ups are the important players here, its only our boys that matter. Could definitely use a break 😅

Kates21 · 30/01/2020 10:44

@lv1987

My sons dad is very complicated, my son has never met his grandparents due to his dad not telling them, I’ve never met them also. He is what you’d call a narcissist basically.

He has no involvement due to his own decision, I’ve made attempts - he will see my boy once or twice a week then disappear.
Luckily my partner is a lovely guy, understands and makes every effort with my boy despite knowing to give support should we need it!

Urgh! Xx

AF arrived with a vengeance in the middle of the night! I woke up soaked in blood 😑 so I guess that's me out!! 🙄 oh well - always next month!

Kates21 · 30/01/2020 11:47

@MilsCookie

NO WAY!! I’m so sorry! Xx

Tashadream123 · 30/01/2020 12:50

@MilsCookie so sorry! So dissapointing isnt it..Makes two of us with dodgy lines 🙈 not testing until later next month!

Avacadoandtoast · 30/01/2020 13:29

@MilsCookie nooo :( turns out we are on a similar cycle though - mine started last night too - heavier than ever.
Somewhat relieved that it’s come though - now we know!
Onto next cycle!!

@Kates21 sorry he’s an asshole - sounds like you have found the right man now though 😘

MilsCookie · 30/01/2020 13:46

@Avacadoandtoast @Tashadream123 @Kates21 thanks lovelies. Bring on the next month and November babies!!! Fingers crossed for us all 🤞🤞🤞

Kate I'm glad you have now found someone worthy of you 😘💖

Kates21 · 30/01/2020 14:02

@MilsCookie
@Avacadoandtoast

Awww thanks girls ❣️
So, what we planning for TTC this cycle? 🤣 xx

OP posts:
LV1987 · 30/01/2020 14:06

Hmmmm I'm thinking BD every other night from now until I get some OV signs (or one of us passes out from too much sex, whichever happens first!) then every day for a little while too, then ease back off again before I spend approx 2 weeks peeing on whatever stick I can find 😂

You???

Kates21 · 30/01/2020 14:16

@lv1987

Sounds delightful 😂

Me... well due O on 7th, I only see my partner on Friday/Saturdays, he works away. So be going at it like rabbits seeing as I O on a day I’ll see him... just MAYBE we’ll catch it!

OP posts:
Kates21 · 30/01/2020 14:17

I’m also NOT testing, or obsessing over symptoms! I’m going to wait til AF this time x

OP posts:
LV1987 · 30/01/2020 17:37

Believe it when I see it 😅 I'm not due to OV until around the 24th, but that was based on last month's long cycle, so I'm thinking it will happen earlier... Hence getting started from tonight, I hope! Although I have had such a long week that I think I might just go to sleep 😂

Kates21 · 30/01/2020 18:09

@lv1987

It’s an actual chore now, I mean it’s like doing the hoovering to me now hahaha!

AF started with a vengeance for me yesterday. Unbelievable pain, crying, fainting, the whole works. Thank goodness I was working from home, I wouldn't have been able to make it to the office! Today I've had horrific IBS symptoms and ended up in tears on the phone to DH just because I dont know what to do with myself. Good for weight loss though?!! Basically this week can do one.

But once I'm feeling better again aim is to DTD basically all month every two or three days. Like I say trying to track my ovulation is one admin thing too many and after all it worked for previous generations!

Mamahannah2019 · 30/01/2020 21:22

I've still not come on girls. Had some pink when I wiped last night and some red this morning when wiped and nothing at all since. So so confused. What's going on with me :(

Kates21 · 30/01/2020 21:41

@Mamahannah2019

Have you tested x

OP posts:
Mamahannah2019 · 30/01/2020 21:46

@Kates21 tested Tuesday and flat out neg. was due on Monday. I genuinely hand on heart just think my cycles are to pot. Gutted and would rather just come on as I don't have a clue where I am with things. I think it's too late to consider it implementation bleeding isn't it. And it was only 2 wipes of pink/ blood so I'm really confused x

Kates21 · 30/01/2020 21:52

@Mamahannah2019 I had this prior to AF, plus I was a day early!

I had spotting from 8dpo, 10dpo & 12dpo. It really messes your head! I hope you have answers soon! Xx

Kates21 · 31/01/2020 10:38

I hate men.
Had a gutful off my sons dad, Csa day approaching tomorrow - every month he asks for same bank details, starts being the narcissistic prick he is & throws everything in my face & refuses to give over money & tells me to ask my ‘boyfriend’ for money instead. Honestly, if the world could swallow a person I’d ask it to be him. My head hurts, I’ve not slept.

Then today, my son headbut me in the eye (accidentally) 😂
I just can’t even 🖕🏽
