Sorry to hear that @YellowFlower22 🤞🏼 for your next cycle. Xx

RR369 · 07/02/2020 19:35

Oh no @YellowFlower22 and @skh197 I'm so sorry to read your updates xxx

SkyBlue20 · 07/02/2020 22:54

So sorry to hear that, @skh197 @Sjp17 @YellowFlower22 - fingers crossed for next month for you all 💕

skh197 · 07/02/2020 23:32

@YellowFlower22 sorry to hear that, just not our month, but onwards to the next one now, I know there’s no point dwelling on it. Here’s to a good one!

skh197 · 07/02/2020 23:36

@Sjp17 @RR369 are you still hanging in there? Sending positive vibes to you both if so.x

@SkyBlue20 thank you, yes onward and upwards for the next cycle! 🤞🏻x

RR369 · 08/02/2020 07:26

Still holding on here @skh197 thanks for asking. 14 DPO today and no sign of AF. My temperature this morning seems too high for AF to arrive today. Maybe my super healthy lifestyle this cycle has changed my luteal phase from 12 to a textbook 14 days?? Not going to test unless AF doesn't arrive tomorrow. I think there's a little superstitious part of my brain that says both of my positive tests in the past were on Sundays so wait until then!! On the other hand I have absolutely zero symptoms so I'm not getting my hopes up.
Thinking of you @Sjp17 and hoping for the best 🤞

burntpinky · 08/02/2020 07:50

@skh197, @Sjp17, @YellowFlower22 sorry to hear it wasn't your months - we will be TWW buddies for next cycle so sending lots of positive vibes our way - we can do this!! I think we all need to stuff our faces with loads of lovely sweet stuff to build up our energies for all the sex we are going to have to have!

@RR369 fingers crossed for you!

RR369 · 08/02/2020 08:31

Thanks @burntpinky I only have one test and I keep thinking of your pissing on a fiver comment 😂 I have a huge bar of chocolate ready for AF to arrive and already working out what we'll be doing in FW week next cycle!

2020wish · 08/02/2020 08:46

Af due today for me. Hasn’t arrived yet but have all the symptoms plus more. Fingers crossed it’s not AF

YellowFlower22 · 08/02/2020 08:57

@RR369 I really hope you get your positive 🤞 keep us updated!

@2020wish keeping everything crossed for you too, when will you test?

@burntpinky @Sjp17@skh197 yes onto our next months...let's do this! 🙌🏻
when are we all expecting To ovulate? My app is now pushed back to the 26th...not sure if you remember me saying but my OT is away from the 14th- 22nd so me being late for AF this cycle has actually helped. I've pre-warned him from the day you get back we are going to be busy for the whole week! 😛

2020wish · 08/02/2020 09:00

@YellowFlower22 I’m on a 13 hour shift today so won’t be able to test today... dunno whether to test tonight when I get home if AF hasn’t arrived? Or leave it til tomorrow

KE2017 · 08/02/2020 09:29

🤞🏼 for your @RR369 & @2020wish

2020wish · 08/02/2020 09:35

Thank u

burntpinky · 08/02/2020 09:39

@RR369 - ha ha - this was the only month I managed to stop myself using a FRER thank god!!

@YellowFlower22 my app is saying 17th and am on CD8 but still bleeding as this period has just been horrendous. Going to start OPK's tomorrow I think and have another acupuncture session booked for Thurs so hoping don't ovulate before then as lady said I can't have it if I have a static smiley!!

Great that your OH will now be here during FW!

Sjp17 · 08/02/2020 10:10

Thanks ladies. So disheartening. I'm still light crampy and pink/brown spotting today. Waiting for AF to hurry up so we can be over the failed cycle and start again.
Atm I'm expecting to ovulate 27th feb which is actually our wedding anno, hopefully that's a good sign!

Does anyone else always spot before their periods? I can't remember if I used to but since my periods have returns I have spotted for 1-3 days before AF and I've just been googling, because we all know that's good for us and I had me really worried that it's abnormal and so on, but when my accupuncturist asked she didn't seem concerned?! Anyway I'll pick her brain about it this week.

Sorry I've been MIA I was so upset and trying to deal with it all 😢

2020wish · 08/02/2020 10:57

I don’t usually spot but I know loads of people that do and it’s normal. Try not to panic urself. And u aren’t out until proper AF comes. My friend took a pregnancy test day before af and got a bfn and spotted next 3 days thinking it was her period. She was actually pregnant and didn’t realise until her next period was due. So don’t give up hope yet.

My feeling very off today... like hungover. Af hasn’t appeared yet but all all crampy and sore so who knows. In work so can’t test til away after 9pm tonight

RR369 · 08/02/2020 12:27

Oh @Sjp17 I'm heartbroken for you, you sound so sad. Spotting in early pregnancy is normal apparently and really hope that's what it is for you. If not, maybe it could be related to BF hormones??? Good idea to chat with acupuncturist, sending you lots of hugs xx

RR369 · 08/02/2020 12:28

@2020wish best of luck if you're testing later, everything crossed for you xx

RR369 · 09/02/2020 13:36

No AF so tested- BFN! It wasn't fmu but there should have been something at 15 DPO so onwards and upwards. Really hoping AF starts tomorrow- need to start planning my FW 😂

2020wish · 09/02/2020 13:48

Tested this morning also. Af now 2 days late and Bfn also. Other half said he would go out and get frer but dunno if there is a point?

RR369 · 09/02/2020 14:26

Sorry to hear that @2020wish it's terrible to have your hopes up when AF is late!!!! Did you use fmu?

2020wish · 09/02/2020 15:43

Yea I did. Going to go buy a frer cause I’m getting like shooting pains and indigestion types pains across tummy From Wednesday and ‘hungover’ yesterday and today so feel very off

RR369 · 09/02/2020 16:03

Best of luck 🤞

KE2017 · 09/02/2020 16:58

🤞🏼 for you.
