@lucyrp 😂 that made me laugh, and I'm glad its not just me that gets that kinda attention from a gamer lol.

Skip86 · 22/05/2020 06:18

Ermagawd girls it's so hard to keep up with this chat! 😂 I'm not even going to try replying individually today!
So 3DPO for me today and not much to report. Did have cramping for the 2 days past ov day and kept wondering if I got my dates wrong. I know you should DTD the day/s after ov too, but we just didn't have the time or energy! Oh well, hoping we did enough.

One week away from winter here, and today is sunny and 24 degrees! Tomorrow is 27! Going to enjoy the weather and try to forget about the looming last part of the TWW ☀️☀️

Skip86 · 22/05/2020 06:20

One thought I did have after reading the recent convo, is thank god for the sake of our TTC that my DH doesn't play computer games! 😜

SmileyT · 22/05/2020 06:25

@lucyrp well I'm glad you got your session of the day in, did you try the finishing after him thing?

@Skip86 hope you enjoy the weather 😎 will you be waiting for AF to be late or testing early?

Morning ladies... CD7 for me now and looking forward to going into fertile week next week 🙌🏾 How is everyone? Anymore static smily faces this morning?

Cocoblue22 · 22/05/2020 06:28

@SmileyT I agree with this I knew I was pregnant about 4 days before getting a BFP! I could just tell I felt different and my boobs felt weird I thought I must of been imagining it though because kept getting BFNs every day! The only person who believed me was my best friends as she said that’s how she had known due to her boobs and same with her DC2 so I’m hoping I’ll remember the feeling and know again!

Has anyone else had any aching bloating after coming off the pill? I don’t remember this last time but yesterday and today the lower part of my tummy feels so achey it almost feels like period pains or pulled muscles. I don’t know if I’ve picked my DC up and pulled something or whether it’s a side effect of coming off the pill. CD11 for me and still reading high oestrogen but no LH surge yet hopefully in the next few days x

SmileyT · 22/05/2020 06:51

@Cocoblue22 This makes complete sense as your hcg is in your body before it can be picked up on tests, also progesterone increases so if we're in tune with our bodies we will notice really small shifts. When I fell pg in Feb if I had been ttc it would've been obvious but I wasn't so I didn't notice I was knackered and boobs were massive until I checked when my period was due and it hit me 😂

Skip86 · 22/05/2020 06:59

@SmileyT AF will be due 1st June and I feel like I should wait until then or I'm on the wrong bus! I might do a sneaky test on 31/5 though 😊

KateColx · 22/05/2020 07:14

Morning guys,

Reading through some of your messages has made me laugh this morning 😂 but there's a lot to keep up with.

So I'm CD13 today and have had ⭕️ every morning up until this morning where it's gone straight to a static smiley? Has anyone had this before with no flashing smileys inbetween?

Annoyed with myself because we haven't DTD this week, we've both been so busy with work and I thought we'd wait for the flashing smiley. So I don't think I have great chances this month x

SmileyT · 22/05/2020 07:23

@Skip86 well please still share on the 31st if you get a BFP would be a great start to the month 👌🏾

@KateColx yep I went straight from blank ⭕️ to static last month (I don't think it's that uncommon), think it just means your oestrogen surge is quite quick, you will probably ovulate tomorrow so can you make the time the next 3 days, if so you've put yourself in with a shot. Xx

lucyrp · 22/05/2020 07:25

Morning Girls! Another flashing smiley for me this morning!

@OnNaturesCourse no don't worry it definitely isn't only you that gets that kind of attention from a gamer. He's back at work now so he's not on it that much but when he was off isolating he would stay up later because he didn't have to get up in the morning 😂

@Skip86 fingers crossed you did enough for something to catch 🤞🏼enjoy the weather while it lasts! I did try being out in the sun with DS yesterday but sun on sun burn is not the most pleasant j must say! 😂 you are very lucky your DH doesn't play games it's quite a turn off sometimes when they're shouting away, I'm normally in the kitchen or upstairs I just roll my eyes 😂

@SmileyT it was a very quick session but I'm wondering if it was extra good because it was in between games which were already loading so had to be quick so that might have helped with the Adrenalin rush like we were talking about before where it helps if someone's coming and you have to do it in a timescale or not at all! No I didn't do that and I can't even think how thag wojkd work, how does it work finishing after OH?😂

Minster2012 · 22/05/2020 07:57

Gosh so much to catch up on!! Definitely pleased my OH isn’t a gamer he would be exhausted! We had a zoom 70th party for my FIL last night which was pretty weird & exhausting tbh

I’m now on day 6 of flashing smiles & I feel it’s mocking me 😤I only have one stick left now FFS & was convinced I was gonna get a static today after my ICs at least showed one ‘high’ yesterday but that was only 30. I feel totally deflated now this cycle looks like it’s gonna be long I’m CD 19 now 😥

KateColx · 22/05/2020 08:14

@SmileyT thank you!! Glad it's just a quick surge and not something abnormal with me 😂 Lesson learnt not to wait for FW, but OH is in for a good weekend at least 🤣 x

@lucyrp your messages have killed me reading them this morning 😂 I need to take a leaf out of your book and be doing it at every opportunity haha x

lucyrp · 22/05/2020 08:21

@KateColx glad I made someone laugh! My OH thinks I'm mad sometimes as I open this app and read the comments and I'm in tears 😂😂

We DTD early this morning and I need to shower but scared of getting up too soon😂

BumDiggyDiggyDiggyBumDiggyBum · 22/05/2020 08:29

Good morning ladies

Quick question, how do u use a bbt thermometer? I stuck it in my armpit this morning and it said 35, I’m not hypothermic so that’s defo wrong 😂 not sure if it’s a shitty one.

I had menopause symptoms last year and, as early menopause is quite likely with my condition/medication, I was tested for it. But they only tested bloods once, and it wasn’t taken at the right time of my cycle. It came back no menopause, but that’s a big reason why I wanted to start tracking properly, to see if I was ovulating properly.

Beginning to think I’m not 😑 very early days but I’m supposed to be ovulating this week at some point, but every test has a very very faint line and showing negative. I’ve done 10 so far.

I’ll keep going but who knows what’s happening

Ltay2 · 22/05/2020 08:32

@BumDiggyDiggyDiggyBumDiggyBum Temperature should be taken from under your tongue, as far back as you can do usually where the tongue attaches is a good spot! I think you can get some that take your temperature from your ear but usually it's your mouth.

BumDiggyDiggyDiggyBumDiggyBum · 22/05/2020 08:45

@Ltay2 thank you I’ll try that tomorrow! My ear thermometer showed 37 which is more believable

Cocoblue22 · 22/05/2020 08:54

Haha ladies I thought you took your vag temperatures for BBT! That’s why I never did it I thought well that’s a bit of a faff every morning! Now I have learnt it’s not where I thought x

33Carr · 22/05/2020 09:01

@Cocoblue22 Haha I always thought it was vag temperature too haha!

KateColx · 22/05/2020 09:05

@lucyrp 😂😂😂 have you got your legs in the air too? Oh me too, my OH doesn't appreciate my new love of Mumsnet!! I was like what is not to love?! A mix of actual really helpful TTC teamed with pure comedy gold on other boards 🤷🏼‍♀️ x

lucyrp · 22/05/2020 09:09

@BumDiggyDiggyDiggyBumDiggyBum Your BBT can be taken orally, vaginally or rectally you'll be pleased to know 😉😂

lucyrp · 22/05/2020 09:11

@Cocoblue22 @33Carr you're not wrong girls! You can take it from your vagina if you want to but under the tongue or up your bum are other options 😉😂

@KateColx yes I did have my legs in the air too😂 OH was already downstairs sorting breakfast and kept shouting at me and I was like sorry can't move yet too soon😂 I know right ?! Someone makes me laugh on here every day without fail!😂 I always find myself looking at everyone's user names and wondering what their actual names are or what they look like etc. Think that's part of the fun! X

Mococo1 · 22/05/2020 09:16

Morning everyone

@ltay2 I didn't know temperature should be taken underneath the tongue! My bbt readings are everywhere so I've just given up on them tbh

@lucyrp you have been making me laugh! Hopefully your inbetween session did the job!

AF has finished today and I'm planning on trCking ovulation from CD13 as I usually have a 30day cycle- And don't see the point in tracking from day 10. I can't tell how concentrated my urine is when peeing due to the vitamins so does anyone have any tips on what time to actually take my opks? And do I pee then not drink then hold for two hours and then take the test?!

DH always makes sure I finish first when DTD so I'm really not sure how It's gna work me trying again after lol Confused

Mococo1 · 22/05/2020 09:21

@cocoblue22 it really could be I felt pregnant before getting a bfp for my mc last time even though my period wasn't late and I was on the pill!

Sorry not sure who mentioned this but I've felt super bloated not taking the pill either so defo agree there

One thing I found is the when I had an Orgasm whilst pregnant the feeling was distinctively different to normal so maybe get it on and see if yours are any different?

lucyrp · 22/05/2020 09:34

@Mococo1 seems I've been making everyone laugh this morning! 😂 always a good thing I guess! Il have to try not to get myself in a mood today as we very nearly didn't manage it because I was so grumpy lol

I'm the same OH always makes me finish first no idea how I would even do it after him ?! 😂

Cocoblue22 · 22/05/2020 09:37

@33Carr I’m glad it’s not just me haha

Also who’s gonna be queueing up for a thermometer up the butt as soon as they wake up 😳🤣

@Mococo1 it’s me who’s got pains/bloat I can’t remember feeling like this last time I came off the pill! X
