3DPO and feeling generally shit. Tiny little stabbing pains in my pubic area and my lower back is killing. Feeling sick and generally full. Have a feeling I'm just getting a bug but can't help wondering if it's something else. I know 3DPO is far too early for any kind of symptoms but its always in the back of my mind 🤷🏼‍♀️
Anyone else's AF due around 21st feb?

@calimommy So exciting 🎉💕

inahaze · 19/03/2020 15:56

i'm having a miscarriage (5 weeks) so i'll be back TTC next month

AliSxo · 19/03/2020 16:30

Sorry darling @inahaze I had one in October it's fucking shit, take all the time you need and be kind to yourself xxx

inahaze · 19/03/2020 16:41

Thanks @AliSxo. Did you wait 3 months to try again?

Daffodil21 · 19/03/2020 17:00

@inahaze I'm so so sorry.

I had one in September and November last year too. Please don't feel like you are alone. We are all here for youThanks

AliSxo · 19/03/2020 18:44

@inahaze no babe xx I started trying as soon as I ovulated which was 2 weeks after I started bleeding. That was in early October and still waiting to catch xxxx

Fifol · 19/03/2020 18:58

Oh @inahaze so sorry to hear that. Sending you lots of love xxxx

Twitchett22 · 19/03/2020 20:34

@inahaze oh I'm sorry! That's shit. Look after yourself and feel whatever you want to feel.
@calimommy congrats I hope it sticks too!

I tested yesterday but not FMU -bfn (12dpo) so thought I'd test FMU today and the bloody test didn't work at all! I think I peed too much on it? 😂
Anyway AF due tomorrow so lets see. As much as I really want it and TTC is exhausting me, I can't help but dread a 12 week isolation if i do get bfp 🙄
Hope everyones not going too covid mad and getting too stressed x

@inahaze I'm sorry my dear! I've had two and also went back ttc as soon as my bleeding stopped. The first (9weeks) stopped bleeding within a few days like a normal period but unfortunately the second one (11weeks) took 12 weeks to stop bleeding! Hopefully you are more like the former xxx

calimommy · 19/03/2020 22:14

@Twitchett22 as it stands we are in isolation for 4 weeks but once the schools go back (if they do) I won't be able to isolate. I'll just try to social distance where possible but then again I'll still
Have to do all the usual stuff so 🤷‍♀️

inahaze · 20/03/2020 08:48

Thanks everyone for your support

Where is everyone in their cycle?

We are heading towards Christmas babies!

Fifol · 20/03/2020 11:01

I'm on cd 31 but since I ovulated late I'm not expecting AF for another week. I have some cramps today but no sore boobs probably will get that in a few days. I'm very chilled right now I think because I ovulated late or whatever happened I already feel I'm out this month

How are you feeling @inahaze?

AliSxo · 20/03/2020 11:06

@Fifol I wish ovulation was the exact same day, the smep or any plan is so hard to follow when the dates change! Xx

@inahaze how are you feeling today? Xx I'm CD5 not ovulating until next weekend xx

inahaze · 20/03/2020 11:12

tbh, i'm feeling really deflated today, i had insomnia last night because i felt stupid for thinking/believing/hoping i was pregnant (mad middle of the night thoughts but still powerful).

one of the mums in a whatsapp group im in messaged me separately to say she had had a miscarriage last year and then went on to say she is 11 weeks pregnant..... i wish she had just said nothing at all because right now, it just feels so unfair (this will be her third child, due in october).

looks like our cycles are all out of sync now :(. never mind let's keep the thread going anyway :)

AliSxo · 20/03/2020 11:36

@inahaze it's horrible isn't it, I didn't sleep well when it happened to me in October I would wake up and prey it had all been a bad dream :(

I can't stand people telling me they're pregnant right now it's a real trigger I'm struggling with so I just prefer not to hear which isn't rational or practical but I just want to be able to share the news myself and it's not happening xx

Twitchett22 · 20/03/2020 15:07

AF has turned up bang on time 😣 i might start using opks but no idea where to start really or if I'm putting extra pressure on myself.
AF arrives like clockwork every month, my cycle has been consistently 28 days for the last 3 months since it settled after stopping the pill. Does that mean i will always ovulate on day 14 or could i be mis-timing ovulation day?
Let's keep each other going, feels like we're all feeling extra shit this month. We all want a Christmas baby anyway right? 😂

Sorry @Twitchett22 ! OPKs are a great help imo. You might have a very short surge or be hitting the wrong days, always worth a try. I also swear by Agnus Castus. I don't know if it's a coincidence or not but I always get pregnant when I take it.

Daffodil21 · 20/03/2020 15:18

Sorry@Twitchett22 Thanks

inahaze · 20/03/2020 17:30

Sorry twitchett :(

Definitely try OPK! Before i had my first child, I used to ovulate around day 8.... now it's more like day 14... so yea it's helped me:) bbt chart very interesting too x

Fifol · 20/03/2020 18:26

Sorry @Twitchett22 that's shit but at least it's on time and not late getting your hopes up I suppose.

I'm in the worst mood this evening. Genuinely feel I'm getting AF but not due for another week. I got a package and they didnt look nice on me and I have been fuming about it since!!!

HalfPenny28 · 20/03/2020 19:12

Sorry I've not really kept up lately, af arrived yesterday and it was just the final straw.

Cycle 7!

What the actual shitting hell. I never expected it to take this long. Dunno what we're doing wrong.

inahaze · 20/03/2020 19:20

@HalfPenny28 what have you tried so far?

AliSxo · 21/03/2020 09:21

@HalfPenny28 I felt the same I thought first cycle I'd catch - we've just got to keep trying.... xxx

Twitchett22 · 21/03/2020 20:06

I've been having a long think and I'm going to stop actively TTC. We're still going to continue with no contraception but I'm going to try and forget about a baby for a few months, stop looking at dates and cycles and whatever and just see what happens. Then when the whole covid thing calms start again and maybe start with opks and stuff.
I feel like there's so much going on right now that TTC is an extra stress that I'm putting on myself, which is probably stopping me conceiving 🙄 so I'm hoping a break is the best way forward.
So that means I'm going to leave the thread behind also. Thank you to all of you for your love and support which makes this whole shit-coaster more bearable! I hope you all get your bfps very soon and you are kind to yourselves.
Maybe see some of you on new threads in a few months 💜
