Hey ladies I am 1dpo today I believe! After finally getting a negative opk! After five positives!

Anyone want to join the symptom spotting crazy train? Xx

@AnxiousAnnie86 looking at your lh and bbt I would think your app is right and that you ovulated on cd12

Spinksy9 · 25/05/2020 11:38

@AnxiousAnnie86 @Gemster19, I got it totally wrong. It says ovulation was 21st not 18th! I DTD 18th! X

Gemster19 · 25/05/2020 14:51

@AnxiousAnnie86 I think I'm going to give the inositol a try this month if I'm out, I just found a clinical study that found it can reduce the number of cysts on an ovary, which I guess can't be a bad thing even if I don't have the actual syndrome 🤷🏻‍♀️. I need to decide whether to order some more OPKs too, I think it's prob a good idea for me to able to see the results at the same time as temping to confirm?

🤞🏼 @lydia771 all sounds positive!

@Spinksy9 that's seems a lot later than you thought (and honestly I have no idea what your chart shows 😂) but I guess the ewcm on 18th night support ov on 21st?

I think my AF might be about to show, I'm starting to feel that sort of full feeling like I need a wee all the time 🙁

Spinksy9 · 25/05/2020 15:01

@Gemster19 a lot lot later. Can you ovulate twice??? As I had EWCM on the 11th and 12th as well i think. It's all so complicated. I havent got any signs of AF apart from i keep getting headaches and feel sick!

Gemster19 · 25/05/2020 15:12

@Spinksy9 I think technically it is possible but I think it's very unusual! I think maybe your app is struggling because you haven't temped every day/for a whole cycle yet. Would 11th/12th be more normal for you based on your usual cycle length/usual ov symptoms/OPK patterns from previous cycles?

Spinksy9 · 25/05/2020 15:32

@Gemster19 it's the first month I've physically tracked temps/ CM and symptoms as didnt want to start obsessing x

Gemster19 · 25/05/2020 15:36

@Spinksy9 oh god totally know what you mean!

Well hopefully you'll be lucky this month...but if not you (and your chart!) might have a better idea next cycle 😊

Spinksy9 · 25/05/2020 15:41

@Gemster19 all the " don't have unprotected sex" talks while at school were a lie!
They dont teach you how difficult and complicated getting pregnant actually is 😂

Gemster19 · 25/05/2020 16:08

@Spinksy9 😂 tell me about it, there's no way my 15 year old self would believe I'd been having v v regular unprotected sex for a year with nothing to show for it!

Assuming I ever actually get my BFP I'm going to teach that baby about useful real life stuff - cooking and mortgages and how hard it is to actually make a baby!

Spinksy9 · 25/05/2020 16:11

@Gemster19 100%
We need to be prepared for how difficult and complicated real life is!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 25/05/2020 18:16

How's it going ladies, who's still waiting for AF? I've not got anything today! Nothing no sore boobs no period type pains absolutely nothing! Yest day had them all! X

OP posts:
Gemster19 · 25/05/2020 18:42

@AnxiousAnnie86 🙋🏻‍♀️ absolutely nothing here either - think I might have actually just needed a wee earlier 😂.

I've spent the whole day racking my brain trying to work out if the cycle I got my BFP was like this but as it was the first month I wasn't tracking anything - I know I definitely wasn't one of those women who 'knew' I was pregnant, but I can't remember if I'd had any of the normal pre-AF symptoms!

Does anyone else find you're either absolutely convinced it's going to be the month, or certain that it's never going to happen for you? I can't seem to stop veering from one extreme to the other!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 25/05/2020 18:51

@Gemster19 the month I got month I was shocked I remember that! But I can't remember much else! That month my boobs had hurt constantly since ovulation

This is TMI apologies, but only thing different for me is CM, normally is creamy or dry, but I keep thinking AF Has come and it's just a lot of wet Cm, I don't think I've ever had that after OV.

When will you be testing? X

OP posts:
lydia771 · 25/05/2020 18:52

@Gemster19 constantly convinced it'll never happen for me! Each symptom I get I find a non pregnant reason for it.

Just had really bad cramps and then felt wet and thought AF had arrived early but was loads of creamy/watery cm - @lilypad88 did you say a few days ago you had a similar experience whilst out at a shop? Xx

lydia771 · 25/05/2020 18:54

@AnxiousAnnie86 snap on the cm! Never had this after ov I think normally dry up completely

lilypad88 · 25/05/2020 19:35

@lydia771 @AnxiousAnnie86 yes! That was really scary... I was convinced it was AF and was about to cry on the street 🙄 I don't get wet cm after ovulation, like you said generally creamy or dry and just see it when I go toilet but this time it's a lot of clear watery cm, almost ewcm, really strange!!

Gemster19 · 25/05/2020 19:38

@AnxiousAnnie86 honestly if AF hasn't arrived by tomorrow I don't know what I'll do, I just can't stand the thought of a BFN! I oddly had a 32 cycle in Jan and by day 31 I'd convinced myself we'd done it, plucked up the courage to buy a test for the next morning, and of course it showed up. What about you?

How long have you been trying @lydia771? How many DPO are you today?

Hoping the unusual CM is a sign for you both 🤞🏼

AnxiousAnnie86 · 25/05/2020 19:44

@Gemster19 honestly I can't stand the thought of seeing a negative, I will possibly buy a digital on amazon tomorrow, if it hasn't come by Wednesday I will test as it would show by then. I have FRER but I don't want to start scrutinising lines..... if it comes I will save for another month, I promise myself from now on I won't test before AF due,

I just hate seeing those "not pregnant" words

OP posts:
AnxiousAnnie86 · 25/05/2020 19:46

No I will order tomorrow and test Thursday I mean, day after period due x

go.mumsnet.com/?xs=1&id=470X1554755&url=prenatal.downdogapp.com/web

It's free until June 15 so worth giving a try if you like this kind of thing

hiddenfigure · 25/05/2020 23:36

I’m due on tomorrow and this evening I have some very light spotting, so think I’m out! :(

Gemster19 · 26/05/2020 06:13

@AnxiousAnnie86 I know it's just the worst feeling isn't it. I feel like I should wait until Saturday as that would be the longest cycle I've had...but I don't know if I'll make it that far! No sign this morning though so far so good.

Sorry to hear that @hiddenfigure - onto next month!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 26/05/2020 06:29

@Gemster19 my temps dropped quite a bit today which means AF will come today more then likely :(

OP posts:
AnxiousAnnie86 · 26/05/2020 06:30

@hiddenfigure I'm sorry, hopefully this month will be lucky for us x

OP posts:
AnxiousAnnie86 · 26/05/2020 07:04

It's still above coverline but I can't imagine it going back up.... and it's too much of a coincidence that I'm due on today

1dpo today! Anyone want to join the wait?
