Hey ladies hope ur all well ❤❤

Backache is real today 😪 and I think but not 100% a bit crampy. I don't get cramps in my stomach its always been in my back

7dpo and not much more to report tbh

Not feeling hopeful this month, not sure why. Just gut feeling xx

Mumofboys17 · 26/05/2020 17:13

@Katie1109 lovely to hear from you!
That's so weird about the early scan showing twins!! I've honestly never heard of that before! I'm glad you're feeling better though hunni I haven't stopped thinking about you since you shared what happened at your scan. I feel positive for you though, hopefully it's nothing but good news from now ❤️❤️

@Catherinettc you're not alone, I feel a bit shit too tbh 😂 I'm getting so close to not bothering anymore. I already have one child so maybe I should just be grateful in that! I've had intermittent cramps for the last 2 days. Mostly in my right side but a little in my back and left side yesterday and today. I'm the same my AF cramps are always in my back so as soon as I feel a twinge I'm write myself off! X

@Mumofboys17

I have 3 already too. Youngest will be 13 this year. Had them all fairly close together and would like 1 last baby now I have so much time to enjoy it.

Its a roller coaster ride but only my 1st month ttc so doubt it will happen for me so soon (although history of catching quickly)

Fingers crossed that we are both lucky this month 😊

LV1987 · 26/05/2020 18:11

Haha @Mumofboys17 my no nonsense approach is a bit like marmite. Some of my best reviews from clients are along those lines... And my worst complaints 😂 My job is quite interesting, because it's so niche, but as with all jobs, some days I just don't like it! I've also done my time at McDonald's, and doing telesales... Graduated during the recession 😉

Missgoldilocks · 26/05/2020 18:47

@lv1987 Ohh I remember you saying you're a property lawyer actually, that's cool! Things have been stressful though, we do Rent to rents and developments in Liverpool, we are going tomorrow. I've just started uo so I'm really scared lol but my partner has been doing it for a while. It's mental, the prices in London have dropped dramatically! Makes it a bit hard for us plus with so many people leaving the city since there's no work.. There's 100s of rooms to compete with!

@Mumofboys17 I know! I keep telling myself that I could implant on 12dpo but I don't want to get my hopes up on that either. It's just not healthy is it the constant worry the constant stress, the excitement to drop of bloody depression lol. I tell you what though, I'm doing good I've lost 3.5kg, I'm going to really focus on losing weight, hopefully if I'm not pregnant I won't take the hit too badly (here's to hoping) lol and just lose as much weight as healthy before getting pregnant! When is af due? Xx

Mumofboys17 · 26/05/2020 19:01

@Missgoldilocks if I got my predicted O day right then AF is due on Friday 😬 which is basically 2 days away now! 😩 I've been really tired the last 2 days (we've been busy and I've not been sleeping great as is 🤷🏼‍♀️), had a bit of a sicky feeling when we did food shopping earlier too but I really don't want to read much into it.
The one thing that's giving me a glimmer of hope is that I don't have my telltale MAJOR pre-AF craving for chocolate 😂 (I know it sounds ridiculous but literally happens to me every cycle and always has done!)
No sore boobs, ZERO cm.. like literally none. Me and DH were trying to DTD last night and I had to reach for the lube, nothing was happening! I was so dry and so embarrassed! 😂😂

LV1987 · 26/05/2020 19:03

Oh my gawd, here I was thinking bloody fabulous job, I've only gained 3lb during lockdown despite eating and drinking like it's the apocalypse... And you've lost 3.5kg 😂😂 that pissed on my paella (not cornflakes cos it's dinner time!)

Mimz3 · 26/05/2020 19:17

Hey ladies hope I can join for some advice please. I recently had 3 positive tests on
Boots brand (2 lines) waited a few days and took a first response (or 2) and the tests are negative. I haven’t had a period this month only a super light bleed which has been on and off since 14th May. I am going nuts! Help me

Danni2019 · 26/05/2020 20:11

@Mimz3 when was the last time you took a test all I can suggest is you maybe wait a week since your last test and test again sorry I don't have anything more to suggest. X

Danni2019 · 26/05/2020 20:17

Well haven't need many OPKs this month did my second one last night and the Clearblue one was a big smiley face already. Only on what I thought was CD10 but had a weird early af this month just some light bleeding and only counted it from the proper af starting so probably am more like CD 12/13 now. Well at least I will be moving into the TWW madness a little earlier. My OH only returned home this morning thought after his night shift after isolating from us so we haven't DTD in the run up to a positive OPK but DTD this morning and will the next 2 nights and you never know I will still join the TWW madness even though we probably haven't DTD enough this month but you always have that thought at the back of your mind that it only takes the once x

Mimz3 · 26/05/2020 20:23

Hey @Danni2019 hope you are well I took the most recent one today which was a first response and a blatent negative.

Danni2019 · 26/05/2020 20:27

@Mimz3 it sadly might mean that you were pregnant and had an early loss if you had a positive and then a negative now. It also depend on your last period as you said you had a bleed around 14th May was that when you were due your period? X

Mimz3 · 26/05/2020 20:47

Yes give or take but it wasn’t a bleed it was more like pale pink water which didn’t transfer in to my pad. Sorry for tmi. I hate being stuck in the middle I would be happy either way tbh. Pregnant or period . Either or is fine with me as long as I’m not in limbo ... thankyou for replying g and hope you have better luck than me

Missgoldilocks · 26/05/2020 20:48

@Danni2019 sorry I think I missed your message!! Thank you so much for that ❤️❤️ I hope we all get some. Good news soon xx

@lv1987 😂😂😂 it's been hard trust me! With the help of no breakfast, protein bars and low calorie hot chocolate haha

Missgoldilocks · 26/05/2020 20:50

@Mumofboys17 fingers crossed its all good signs!! I think if I'm not pregnant I'll get typical pre af symptoms from Thursday or Friday! Due Sunday...
We are going Liverpool tomorrow for business so that'll keep me. Occupied for a day or 2 lol

Mumofboys17 · 26/05/2020 21:49

@Missgoldilocks why is this so tense!!! 😂 I'm so glad you're at the same point as me! At least I'm not alone!! Thank god you've got a distraction for a few days, I can feel me reaching for the FRER tomorrow already 😩 xx

I just noticed a really big blue vein on my boob.... that's a good sign right?! 😖 fml hahahaha total TTC craaazaaayy!!!

@Mimz3 have you recently come off any contraception? That can mess with your cycles big time too x

OP posts:
Catherinettc · 26/05/2020 21:54

I'm not due af for another 8 days (I think)

This has been the longest ever! And I know the next week will be worse 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

I also have no idea when I'm able to poas 🤷‍♀️🤣 im dying to lol

Good luck to everything testing soon and @Mimz3 hope u get some answers soon as to whats going on with ur cycle. Im new to all this so sorry I'm of no help xx

Mimz3 · 26/05/2020 21:56

Hey thanks for replying. Never been on any contraception. :/

Mimz3 · 26/05/2020 21:58

Hey @Catherinettc don’t be sorry. Xx wishing you all the luck hun xx

Catherinettc · 26/05/2020 22:08

Thanks @mimz3

Catherinettc · 26/05/2020 22:09

Omg people to vent to lol stupid phone 🤣

Mimz3 · 26/05/2020 22:33

Haha definitely especially when we are all on a similar journey. I think if you speak with people who are not in the same path tend to think we must be losing it. :p

Catherinettc · 26/05/2020 23:58

I'm beginning to think I'm losing it myself 🤣🤣

I'm feeling every twinge in my body and wondering if its a symptom when before I qould take no notice 🤦‍♀️🤣🤣

Mumofboys17 · 27/05/2020 07:45

Regretting this massively now because I'll feel down all day 🙁
