Wow busy thread today. I'll work my way up.

@Nuggetlover27 I'm not a reader I'm afraid! I really struggle to get into books - I'm too easily distracted! The only time I get into a book is when I'm on holiday and can properly switch off. But whatever works as a good distraction you should definitely use! How are you today? Did AF show?

@Leok83 it definitely is giving me the run around! I don't think I'd go as far as very fit 😂 I'm certainly no athlete so I don't think I can use that excuse! But I do like to do some exercise. I've probably upped what I used to do slightly since lockdown because I'm just sat in the house all day. I'm just going to try and slow down and cut back a bit. I don't want to stop altogether and I'm sure they say exercise is meant to be good for you 🤦🏼‍♀️ I have been thinking about getting a private appointment but then I think I'm just whittling. I might do it just for peace of mind. Google is definitely my enemy at times 😒

@Annny27 you're right, never thought about people with PCOS. I know I'm worrying unnecessarily. My inner control freak just wants everything 'perfect' and I think I need to let that notion go! 😂 were going to carry on trying this month. Could be a loooooong month 😅. I'm glad you're feeling more positive though! A holiday always help I find. Good luck dtd tonight. I'm boiling! 🥵

@ELM7 love that meme! So true. My husband also laughs at my 'pee sticks' as he calls them. So romantic 🤨

@Milscookie huge congrats on your BFD! That's a beautiful ring! And so special that it's your grandmas diamond. I love that you weren't expecting it - I remember being caught totally off guard too! I actually remember thinking at the time that he was acting really odd all night and starting to annoy me 😂 turned out the poor bloke was just a nervous wreck trying to get everything to play out as he'd planned and I was doing my best to unintentionally scupper it! When he finally popped the question my initial response was 'are you serious' 🤦🏼‍♀️ as if he would be joking after almost 10 years 😳

Nuggetlover27 · 01/08/2020 09:34

Unfortunately AF is here this morning girls 😔 I'm out for another month.
On to cycle 8 since MC and month 13 since we started trying 😭

Annny27 · 01/08/2020 10:55

Got my peak opk this morning 🙌🙌 so probs ovulate tomorrow on cd15 I imagine!

@fizzl glad you have decided to keep on trying:D I wish i could email Google and ask them not to let us search anything containing the words "dpo, bfp, progesterone, luteal phase, ovulation, implantation bleed" haha! Our own worst enemies. Sometimes when women are like "yeah i was 15 weeks pregnant before we even thought to test haha" I am just amazed at how some people can be so chilled....very jealous!

@nuggetlover27 so sorry lovely 💗💗 this is my 8th cycle after miscarriage and 14th month in total so we are in this together ❤ 😢

Ah @Nuggetlover27 I’m sorry AF arrived 😔 So rubbish and disheartening xx

scrumdiddly123 · 01/08/2020 18:48

Ooh @Annny27 how great getting your peak cd14, don’t think that’s ever happened to me 😂 always ov later! and you deserve a medal DTD in yesterday’s heat! Fingers crossed this is your month!
I’ve just done my second FRER, couldn’t wait til Monday but it’s been 48 hours. Would you say this progression is ok? I know it doesn’t really mean anything but hard not to obsess over it! They are 9 and 11dpo x

@scrumdiddly123 oh my god congratulations! I only just saw that you've got your positive, that is such wonderful news to see 💜

scrumdiddly123 · 01/08/2020 20:31

Ah thank you @ChampooPapi 🙂💕 fingers crossed its a sticky one for me! how are you getting on?

SunnySideUp2020 · 02/08/2020 08:06

@Annny27 honestly just dtd however you feel like doing! Our doc told us to do every other day to help with quality of sperm but then some other doctor said the more the better 😁

@scrumdiddly123 that's a good progression, mine looked like this too! Until i did the clearblue blue dye and freaked out because the line was lighter! But i also did blood on the side and had 185% increase in 48 hours so far more than double- the clearblue were just misleading. Basically don't rely on line colours!!!!

Babyghirl · 02/08/2020 09:20

I hope you girls don't mind me hoping on your ttc train, I have had 2 miscarriages one in Nov 2018 at 10+5 weeks send in Oct at 6+5 weeks so took me tens mons after my first loss to conceive again both times falling pregnant in Sept so now on to month ten after my second loss, hoping I do nt fall pregnant in Sept again lol. Im 37 no living children just to two angels by my side. Took me a long time to fing my rock my husband to be, baby dust to everyone and hope we all get our rainbow babies soon. 💚💚💚

Annny27 · 02/08/2020 09:21

Morning girls. Think I ovulated early this morning- opk was peak last night around 8pm and only high this morning so eggs been released! Didn't dtd last night as was just exhausted but dtd this morning so hopefully its done the trick.

@SunnySideUp2020 yes for last few months we have dtd every day and hasn't worked so I am.not too worried haha 🤣 how are you feeling?

@scrumdiddly123 that's really good progression. I would be very chuffed if that was my 11dpo line! :D

@Babyghirl we cross posted sorry!

Welcome to the club that noone wants to be in 💗 best of luck for you that you get your rainbow soon. Do you use opks or take a more casual approach?

Babyghirl · 02/08/2020 09:37

I tryed using them but stressed me out lol, never found my peak on them I do temp everymorning and I I get a dip on ovulation day so I just try to work off that we baby dance everyday or every 2 days so not to miss anything. We had our first app in the fertility clinic back in Feb was meant to get our results in April but with everything going on been told could now be January before that happens 🙈🙈🙈🙈. I'm from Belfast and work for the NHS and I know all that's going on but can't help but stress out.

Babyghirl · 02/08/2020 09:39

Ahhhh just checked in here and seen your news @scrumdiddly123 congratulations!! So pleased for you, that looks like great line progression! 💞

scrumdiddly123 · 03/08/2020 09:36

Thank you @Whiffle77! Hope you’re doing ok.
@SunnySideUp2020 that’s great your HCG went up by so much! Will you be having an early scan? I don’t know whether to ring the EPU yet to arrange mine or leave it for a bit as don’t want to tempt fate!

Annny27 · 03/08/2020 11:36

Morning :) cd16 - I thought i ovulated yesterday but then had another nearly positive opk this morninf so maybe its a 2nd peak and the 1st one didn't quite make it....who knows haha!

Babyghirl · 03/08/2020 12:21

Annny27 · 03/08/2020 12:36

@Babyghirl I think a few people have just had AF and then me and @fizzl are waiting to be in the tww so we are all all over the shot haha

Babyghirl · 03/08/2020 12:49

@Annny27
It's good to have someone that's around the same as you for the tww lol, I try nt to symptom spot but it hard 😂😂😂😂😂 I normally ovulate around CD 12/13 so reaching it. Only way I knw for sure is temping so just baby dance as much as possible only time I get a break is when the witch pays her monthly visit 😂😂😂😂

Fizzl · 03/08/2020 17:42

CD27 here and still no ovulation 🙄 keeping everything 🤞 it happens soon and we can be cycle buddies!

Babyghirl · 03/08/2020 18:31

@Fizzl
Hoping ovulation happens soon for you and you can be in the tww, and we all get r rainbows very soon 💚💚

Nuggetlover27 · 04/08/2020 08:30

Sorry to find you here @Babyghirl but welcome 😊 really hoping we get our rainbow babies soon 🤞🏻

CD4 for me so nothing to report. Feels like ov is so far away (normally around CD21-25)

@Fizzl oh no ☹️ have you had any signs of it happening soon?

How are you doing @Annny27 ? Did you peek again yesterday? Did you cover with DTD just incase?

Babyghirl · 04/08/2020 09:08

@nuggetlover27
Thanx for the warm welcome not a thread anyone wants to fine themself on, but so greatful to have found it💚💚

BeeMakesTea · 04/08/2020 09:28

Hi, hope you don’t mind me re-joining you? Not sure if you remember but I was on Feb and March threads with a different username, I got a BFP in March but then had a MMC and D&C in May-June. We waited 1 cycle so started ttc again this month but AF showed up today (sorry just realised that’s a lot of acronyms!). So it’s on to round 2.

Hope you ladies are all well? Congratulations @SunnySideUp2020 and @scrumdiddly123, lovely to catch up and see your BFPs
