@Missgoldilocks hmmmm I have a mother like that too!! And a MIL come to think of it.. 🤔🙄😂
I know you probably feel it's inevitable at this point but if full flow hasn't kicked in by tomorrow I'd definitely do a test just to be sure xx

@Missgoldilocks as you are normally regular that does sound promising. I have everything crossed for you! X

Missgoldilocks · 23/08/2020 20:21

@Mumofboys17 😂🤦‍♀️thanks girl I will, I looked back at my diary and I had a 30 day cycle then so going to stop googling and getting hopeful again, just wait for tomorrow and I'll test if nothing still xx how are you feeling? Xx

Missgoldilocks · 23/08/2020 20:22

@LAnna20 thank you xxxx but I've had a 30 day cycle before so let's wait till tomorrow xx

Missgoldilocks · 23/08/2020 20:49

Haha red blood now 😂😂🤦‍♀️ what a bitch first time in like a year I got my period in the evening!! Lol ffs

Sunflower2019 · 23/08/2020 23:33

Hey lovelies, how are you all? I'm 37 weeks pregnant now! Crazy!

I've seen there are some BFPs huge congratulations! Wonderful news ♥️

Sorry I've not been on here much, life's been so busy! Lots of love! X

Mumofboys17 · 24/08/2020 08:18

@Missgoldilocks ohww 🙁 sorry lovely. What a bitch. I hope you're ok ❤️xxx

@Sunflower2019 I was thinking of you yesterday! I figured you must be near the end now, that's so exciting!! How are you feeling?
I'm 7 weeks this week so feels like it's majorly dragging 😂 hoping once I get past the 12 week mark it'll feel a bit more real and exciting 🙈 did you feel movement sooner this time (not being your first baby?) I'm really hoping this is the case 😂 xxx

Hi ladies, hope you're all OK! I've not been OPKing this month so I'm not 100% certain where I am, just that I am CD30... and I'm spotting. My app has me at 10dpo from the other bits and bobs I've logged, whereas by my estimate I'm only 4dpo. Looks like both could be wrong - guess we'll find out if I get my period tomorrow 😂

Mumofboys17 · 27/08/2020 19:23

@LV1987 hello!! Hope you're ok and it's not pre AF spotting for you 😬🤞🏻 I found it quite a relief not to use OPK's last/this cycle, frustrating though as I have no idea when I actually conceived 😂 xx

@BFP2020 @LAnna20 @Missgoldilocks hope you're all doing ok? Xx

OP posts:
LAnna20 · 27/08/2020 19:55

Hi ladies hope your allok, @Mumofboys17 I'm ok thanks hope your doing well. I'm CD7 today , OPKs arrived and Ive done one just cos I was intrigued as I know it's too early really to start them x

Danni2020 · 27/08/2020 21:19

@LV1987 hope it could be implantation spotting for you fingers crossed.

@BFP2020 did you go for your early scan yet?

@Mumofboys17 hope your keeping ok?

@Missgoldilocks hope your ok hun I'm on my af now too so on to next cycle. Hope you have had some relaxation over the last few days x

For me my last blood test my thyroid level is at 4.6 which is good that it is down from 7.6 a few weeks ago. Doctor says below 3 is best for conceiving so another blood test for me in a few weeks and hopefully I will get there. Would really like to get below 3 and hopefully have a chance maybe not this next cycle but the cycle after I have my hopes on 🤞x

BFP2020 · 27/08/2020 21:44

@Missgoldilocks Gutted AF came for you 😩
@LV1987 hope you don't get AF tomor 🤞🏼 how long are your cycles normally?
@Mumofboys17 Doing good 6+3 today but the sickness and tiredness has really gone full force 🤢 how r u? X
@LAnna20 What was OPK like today?
@Danni2020 hey I had it Tue all okay strong heartbeat she was very happy with everything another scan at 9 weeks. That's great your level has dropped that much. Are ye still DTD just in case?? Xx

LAnna20 · 27/08/2020 21:55

@BFP2020 this is it. To be honest I'm not really sure what I'm looking at 😂 . I am guessing the bold pink line is the control line and the really faint one barely noticeable is the one I need to get darker?

Mumofboys17 · 27/08/2020 21:55

@Danni2020 that sounds good about your levels dropping!! Hopefully it'll keep going that way for you 🤞🏻 I'm keeping OK xx

@LAnna20 not at all I think it's good to start ASAP so you can get a feel for them! Can drive you mad if you have longer cycles though 🙈

@BFP2020 same here, I'm 7 weeks now and I don't know what's happened but the symptoms have hit me like a train 😫 I feel sick ALL the time, my back and legs are killing me and the pregnancy nightmares are awful, they're so vivid and detailed.. last night I was in the middle of a zombie apocalypse but decided to go shopping and then a terrorist dressed like Santa came in and set everyone on fire. 😳 I swear... 🤯😂😂 full on batshit crazy.
Pleased your scan went well! DH still doesn't want to go for an early-early scan 🙄 (spoil sport) so still waiting to book mine! xx

Mumofboys17 · 27/08/2020 21:56

@LAnna20 yeah it's basically like a pregnancy test, except it tells you when to get your groove on 😏😂😂 x

OP posts:
LAnna20 · 27/08/2020 22:00

@BFP2020 forgot to add the pic in the last post.
@Mumofboys17 very true. Probably going to drive me mad more as my cycle lengths are unpredictable but I'll give it a go!

New thread for the crazy gang - Part 5!
Danni2020 · 27/08/2020 22:08

@BFP2020 great news about a strong heartbeat so pleased for you. You can relax more and enjoy it hopefully even with the sickness. I will still DTD this cycle anyway but not putting any pressure on it. My cycles are regular so know roughly when I would ovulate and if it happens it happens. Just happy that the levels are going the right way but they have dropped before and gone up again so this next blood test will be key. It will be in the middle of ovulation too so will good to know if my level has dropped again this next cycle. X

Danni2020 · 27/08/2020 22:10

@LAnna20 the bottom line is the one that needs to get darker. I pretty much get a stark white line and once it starts to get darker like your pic in a couple of days would then have a peak so keep testing to make sure it doesn't happen over the next few days x

Mumofboys17 · 27/08/2020 22:13

@LAnna20 my O day tends to fluctuate as well the OPK's helped me recognise that too, plus my symptoms like ewcm. Hopefully it's just the tick in the box you need to get lucky this cycle! 😊 xx

LV1987 · 28/08/2020 11:47

Hello lovely ladies - no period this morning, but it feels like it is coming! If it isn't here by the day before my holiday, I will test 🤞

@Mumofboys17 how are you feeling, preggerz?! I think I preferred it without OPKs but at the same time, I have had a lot of tears this cycle from OH turning down my advances... There were days when not even the traditional booby jiggle did the trick, and it left me feeling really down. Feeling a bit better now though and will be going without next cycle as we're on holiday for part of it.

@Danni2019 I guess it could be if I am 10dpo, but we would have had to actually have had sex during FW for that to happen and I don't think we did 🤦‍♀️

@BFP2020 my cycles this year have been between 34 and 42 days, so this would be my shortest to date! So even if its not a BFP for me, it'll push me into "normal" for my average cycle length, which gives me a bit more reassurance that I am actually ovulating. Glad to hear things are progressing nicely for you!

LV1987 · 28/08/2020 11:53

I've written all that and now I am sitting here dying to POAS 😂🤦‍♀️

Sunflower2019 · 29/08/2020 07:43

@Mumofboys17 oh wow that's amazing news, how are you feeling?! I'm currently having some serious cramps and not sure if it's wind or something else, only 2 weeks left so will be on tender hooks!

Yes definitely felt movements sooner, a lot sooner and they've definitely been a lot stronger this time round. I think I had some small flickers around 12 weeks, then they got stronger!

@Missgoldilocks How are you sweetie?

Xxx

Mumofboys17 · 29/08/2020 08:50

@LV1987 haha preggerz 😂 I'm doing OK! Feel sick pretty much all the time and SO tired 😫 but I guess that's all positive really! Did you test in the end? Hope AF stayed away for you 😬🤞🏻 xx

@Sunflower2019 oooh could be your body getting ready! With DS everyone told me I would know when the contractions started and I thought that was complete bollocks.. until they actually did start and I just knew! So weird 😂
Omg 12 weeks really?! 😮 my mum actually said the same thing, I didn't feel anything with DS til just before 20 weeks, I'm excited to feel little flutters 🥰 that was always my fave part about being pregnant, everything else is a bit of a drag 😂 xx

OP posts:
LV1987 · 29/08/2020 18:25

@Mumofboys17 nope, not tested! CD32 now, pretty sure I'm out despite the spotting the other day. Don't really feel periody, not got my usual watermelon boobs, but also not feeling too hopeful due to lack of nookie! Oooooh well!

Fredthespider · 31/08/2020 07:26

@LV1987 I’m on tenterhooks waiting for you to test.. have you done it yet?!? I have no idea how you can get this far without testing 😂
