Well since we are at the tail end!!

@Beau2020x @quiffy @Symptomspotter86 @BFP2020 @ange211

@Mumofboys17 no I think its from the pain, they aren't normally this bad and it's just making me nauseous 🤢 maybe it's from flying through different time zones ✈️🤷‍♀️

I know right it's so weird I'll even try to help it along but nothing works haha just can't finish! Xx

@Ellsbells112 I know exactly what you mean & I was super excited when I got a smiley last month, felt like a bfp 😂
I'm not bothering with opks this month can't handle the emotional rollercoaster
@Beau2020x still looks good to me 🤞

Mumofboys17 · 27/01/2020 08:25

Aww hi @Sunflower2019 ! Good to hear all is well 😊
I agree with @Katie1109 OMG you'd have to show us scan pics! The first little bump of the crazy gang 😍
I'm no where near testing yet haha only CD8 for me but sticking around for now! X

Beau2020x · 27/01/2020 09:07

@Ellsbells112 I was probably more excited about a static smiley than I was this (possible) BFP!!

Orders 2 more FRERs arriving tomorrow. Checked both tests again this morning, the one I did yesterday is definitely fainter than the 1st one :(

Beau2020x · 27/01/2020 09:08

@Sunflower2019 eeeekk glad everything is going okay for you lovely!! Can't WAIT to see a scan photo

Katie1109 · 27/01/2020 09:11

I have just looked at my resting heart rate. It has gone up by 4 beats per minute on Saturday and stayed that way till now x I wonder whether it actually has got anything to do with cycles x

Ellsbells112 · 27/01/2020 09:13

@Beau2020x but it may be that you drank too much before the second one?? Argh I'm really hoping everything is okay for you x

@Sunflower2019 hey girl awww that's so lovely ❤️❤️ I'm good thank you, only just about hitting the 2ww xxx

@katie1109 thank you haha I know I was so excited xx

Sooo my temperature are all over the place and from researching Google it seems that's what happens on letrozole. I was getting ovulation pain from the right yesterday and now I'm getting ovulation from the left. So I'm going to BD tonight again since I got the static yesterday evening.

Question, once you all get a static smiley how much bding do you do? We've done it every day since Friday and got static yesterday night? Would you dtd till Wednesday or do it this evening then have a night off then do it again etc?? Thanks girls xx

@Beau2020x if you don’t mind me asking, what’s your cm like at the moment? 🤣😂 Gosh this is a very personal question 😂 mine seems to be quite thick but a bit stretchy at the same time x

Beau2020x · 27/01/2020 09:56

@katie1109 Absolutely do not worry about asking that, nothing is personal on here hehe! It's been very mixed to be honest! It's pretty dry at the moment but it has been lotion like and also 'snotty' at times. The last week hasn't really been consistent but the last 2-3 days pretty dry and snotty (ew). I heard a rise in heartbeat is a sign eeeeekkk!! I've not been wearing my fitbit but I'm sure mine would be something stupid like 1111000 beats a sec I am that stressed.

@Ellsbells112 I am honestly praying for this BFP, you all know what I mean when I say it would mean the world!! Plus OHs 30th friday and estimated due date my birthday, it just HAS to be doesn't it?

Katie1109 · 27/01/2020 10:05

@Beau2020x thanks hun x I don't rally know what to think about mine. Its white, quite thick but at times a bit stretchy, snotty might be the right term lol x
Just seen my resting heart rate drop by 7bpm...implantation dip? I have just read that's what happens. I literally looked at it while typing this up, it was the same as yesterday until 30 mins ago! x also starting to feel a bit of a pressure like sensation down there, similar to af x

@Sunflower2019 glad you're doing okay. Very excited for you and cant wait to see the pics

Symptomspotter86 · 27/01/2020 11:35

Morning ladies. I'm in bed ill this morning with a crappy cold and chest cough. Least it means it distracts me from symptom spotting as I felt sick this morning but can put it down to illness. I'm only 5DPO as well so who am I kidding.

@Quiffy oh bless you that sucks!! I'd be annoyed as well. Especially as it is estimated ov days.

@Ellsbells112 we only DTD day of the static smiley not the day after but I read that the day before is absolutely fine and has you covered so I reckon yesterday and today and tomorrow would be fine. It is 24-36 -hours after a static that you ovulate and then the egg is only there for max 12 hours so you basically have 48 hours to get BDing.

Ellsbells112 · 27/01/2020 12:17

@Symptomspotter86 thank you! Ahh sorry to hear you are poorly that's really crap I hope you feel better soon! Yeah, my cervix is still high so I'll BD tonight then call it a day 😂

@Beau2020x I know! I'm really excited for you and everything is crossed that it sticks xx

@Quiffy awww I totally get your frustration that would be super annoying! Is there any way he can change it?? If you ovulate on the 14th perhaps it'll be okay because that's a Friday right? So if you BD up to the Friday and Friday evening even you should be covered? Also I know this sounds mean lol but you guys should say you have something nice planned for valentines day so it'll have to be the next weekend?? Lol xx

Girl, blazing BFN for me today 😥 I knew it was too good to be true. Boobs have been hurting less and less as the morning went on. Just did a FRER (granted it was a very 'clear' wee) but considering I had a faint positive at 9DPO I'd expect something darker today at 11DPO. Not even a squinter. It's heartbreaking.

Now just to wait for AF to start so I can move on to the next cycle

Quiffy · 27/01/2020 12:47

@Beau2020x I’m so sorry :( is there any hope of trying with fmu tomorrow?

@Symptomspotter86 @Ellsbells112 he’d be leaving Friday morning unfortunately as they live far away. Worse still he’s meant to be staying away for a work thing the Thursday 13th so might not see him from Thursday morn to Sunday afternoon. And if he says we’re doing something they’ll just have it without DH and he’ll be the bad person who hasn’t met the baby yet and I’ll get the blame. I’ll ask him again tonight as valentines I can be sad about but ov is VERY important .

@symptomspotter86 hope you feel better soon ❤️❤️

Katie1109 · 27/01/2020 13:05

@Beau2020x so sorry hun x I know it’s heartbreaking x lots of hugs to you x and don’t give up hope just yet x 11DPO is still early xx

Mumofboys17 · 27/01/2020 13:28

@Beau2020x oh darling 🙁 I mean it's still very early days. You're never completely out until AF shows up, try and stay positive until then. I know it's hard xxx

Ellsbells112 · 27/01/2020 13:29

@Beau2020x 🤗😟 I'm so sorry!!! Oh gosh these tests are murder I swear!! Argh babes ❤️ please look after yourself xx

@Quiffy Ahhh that's really annoying!! Argh I hope you talk him out of the Thursday thing hes going to! At least then there would be a chance if you dtd on Thursday morning xx

Beau2020x · 27/01/2020 13:33

Thanks girliesss, it's fucking horrid! TTC becomes obsessive, I mean constantly prodding your boobs to check that they sill hurt?! Never mind, I always said I wouldn't test early but it's soooo so hard not to!! Ah well, it happens, I'd weirdly almost convinced myself I was going to have a chemical. Just want AF to hurry up now, poor OH probably going to be in AF time on his 30th ooops.

How is everyone else feeling?

Symptomspotter86 · 27/01/2020 13:49

@beau2020x I am so sorry. It sucks it really does. Don't beat yourself up about testing early, we've all done it and it so hard. Especially when you have the symptoms. Can you both just have a nice night tonight eating some nice food and maybe even a glass of wine? Xx

Quiffy · 27/01/2020 14:31

@Beau2020x it’s very hard not to test early, the whole TTC process is too much. Try to take care of yourself today ❤️

Beau2020x · 27/01/2020 14:36

@Symptomspotter86 @Quiffy thanks lovelies xx

At least I can look forward to getting absolutely shitfaced at the weekend for OH's 30th. I was beginning to worry I was going to put a downer on his 30th birthday drinks while we are away this weekend. Looking on the bright side and all that!

Quiffy · 27/01/2020 14:47

@beau2020x you defo need to find positives to keep sane!

Katie1109 · 27/01/2020 15:33

I'm feeling a bit light headed at the moment, not dizzy as such just a bit fuzzy if you know what I mean. Boobs are still killing and shooting pains now and again in my left boob only?! Couple of cramps earlier on, but lasted only few minutes and nothing since. I'm sure its all nothing anyway and I'm being a fool...yet again! :)

Beau2020x · 27/01/2020 18:37

@Katie1109 it all sounds promising to me! 🤞🏼 now many DPO are you?

I've stated verrryyyyy slightly pink/orange spotting. Only when I wipe. AF cramps are here (different to the ones I was having the last 2 days) so presume AF is coming early for me. Just had a little cry on my own and a cuddle with the dog while OH is at the gym, haven't even told him about this 🤦🏼‍♀️

Katie1109 · 27/01/2020 18:55

@Beau2020x I’m 8DPO today x trying not to get my hopes up too much x funny enough my boobs are not in as much agony as they were during the day, so F knows what’s going on x just remember you’re still early, it still may be IB - it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re implanting right now, some women bleed days after implantation, so you may not have enough Hcg yet xx just be nice to yourself x it’s ok to be upset, just don’t let it overwhelm you completely xx
