@AnxiousAnnie86 I have one FRER left which I will do on the 6th June if AF doesnt arrive on the 5th.
I stopped drinking this month and stop taking my anti histamines as they can stop implantation. I honestly thought AF arrived yesterday and had a drink. Now I feel stupid x

AnxiousAnnie86 · 31/05/2020 11:49

@Spinksy9 I honestly don't think one day drinking would matter? I'm just unsure about more then one and during the whole month? I've also stopped antihistamine! Killer today!!! X

@Spinksy9 I wouldn't worry about one night of drinking, I was early pregnant with my daughter over a New Year's Eve (unaware) and was (a lot) more than tipsy 😂 all was fine! Oo I didn't know about the antihistamine thing!! Been taking them religiously the past week 😯 can you tell I'm a complete novice at this!! X

Spinksy9 · 31/05/2020 12:38

I didnt know about antihistamines but I have been on them for years. I thought I'd google its affects on conception and it mentioned it could stop implantation. So thought I'd see if it would make a different. Will have to wait and see what this month brings. I usually try not to drink in the TWW. Although mine has turned into a 3 week wait 😂

AnxiousAnnie86 · 01/06/2020 08:56

@Spinksy9 how's it going this morn?

I have just made myself miserable by looking at my app and it says 19 days till ovulation.. I hope that isn't right! You ladies will be lapping me 🤣

I upped my soy last night for last two days and I felt sick all night long! Has anyone else on here taken them? X

@AnxiousAnnie86 temp dropped again today. Same as it was saturday. I had a one time pink discharge on saturday. Nothing since. AF due 5th so if it doesnt arrive I'll test
I'm actually hating TTC now!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 01/06/2020 09:26

@Spinksy9 I know what you mean :( I feel the same.... and yet it's all I seem to think about.... I was thinking of trying pressed and the fertility cups this month.... but think I will see if the soy doesn't work and do it next month, doing something different each month seems to give me a little more hope then just doing the same thing every single month. If that makes sense 🤷‍♀️

Hello,

I think we are out for the month. My tracking changed, so we ended up with 2 days before and 2 days after. Just wait for AF to turn up now.

I'm hoping my OH get's his R&R early next month and we are able to timing it with ovulation but that will be a waiting games. Just hoping they don't extend his time away from 3 months to 6 months.

Hope everyone is enjoying some sunshine.

Spinksy9 · 01/06/2020 15:17

I took a test this afternoon, should have waited until tomorrow with FMU but I got bored.
BFN but i am apparently 11dpo. Not sure if i am out or not. My CM is a little brown, like the tiniest streak ever. And I had the pink water once on Saturday. Everything is pointing positively apart from my BBT chart and the BFN x

Spinksy9 · 01/06/2020 17:42

Everyone say hello to AF!!!!!
4 days later than original date but
4 days earlier than new predicted date! Apps says my luteal stage was too short?? I give up honestly.
Never knew TTC could be so difficult and emotional

Florarenniemackintosh · 01/06/2020 17:57

hey everyone can i join in here?

I'm 33, cycle #12, ttc #1. This month SMEP! Lucky me :)

CD4, OV 12th.

@Spinksy9 I'm sorry, it is so disappointing I know : effort, waiting, hope then ... AF. wrap yourself in things that make you feel good, mine is hot baths and chocolate and a hug from OH.

Hope and luck to all ! xx

Spinksy9 · 01/06/2020 18:11

Gin gin gin 😂😂
I'm going to stop for a few months I think. Delete all apps and just enjoy the gradual ease of lockdown. Have a glamping trip booked in September with friends so got that to look forward too xx

AnxiousAnnie86 · 01/06/2020 19:06

@Spinksy9 I keep saying I'm going to do that but when it's already been twelve months the thought of letting go and not trying terrifies me!!! X

OP posts:
AnxiousAnnie86 · 01/06/2020 19:07

@Spinksy9 I'm so sorry about AF, you knew this was a bad cycle and having OV date moved after you thought you'd OVd made it impossible practically! X

OP posts:
sle0911 · 01/06/2020 20:07

Ah @Spinksy9 sorry about AF, I'm already going mad with the TTC and we have only just started, can only imagine what it's like for you guys trying for longer 😢 hopefully with the more "let's see what happens" approach next month may be your month 🤞🏼 until then enjoy your gin 😍 x

AnxiousAnnie86 · 03/06/2020 07:40

Hey ladies! How we all doing? Anyone coming up to FW. I'm still agggggges away according to app :(

Hey @AnxiousAnnie86 I'm CD11 here, i can ovulate anything from CD14-CD17, so it might happen this wknd. I think I'm going to start using my Clearblue ovulation kit tomorrow because I was having pains last night, abit like ovulation!! So I'm wondering if the Coq10 or Agnus Castus have affected my ovulation this month🤷‍♀️
When are you due to ovulate do you reckon?

AnxiousAnnie86 · 03/06/2020 09:30

One app says CD19 one says CD26!!! But I've started with soy so who actually knows! I think I'm going to do the same and start tomorrow with CLear blue advanced, which will only be CD10, but as I have no idea whatsoever I don't want to miss it! I really hope it isn't CD26 I will only be ovulating when everyone is testing! X

Chlo2701 · 03/06/2020 10:18

@AnxiousAnnie86 I've seen some good things about those tablets you're taking, as you take them certain days for how you want it to change your cycle don't you. I know you're taking them to bring ovulation forward, & from what I've read on MN they do tend to be successful & bring it forward 🤞🏻 sometimes only by a couple of days though. But yeah if you've got plenty of sticks to use then I don't blame you for wanting to start testing early, I'd rather waste loads of sticks than miss ovulation! Least you know you've done what you can do then. I'm feeling really nervous this month about it all for some reason, I think it's because I'm ready to give up if it doesn't work this month or next😣xx

confuuused · 03/06/2020 11:13

Hey all. I've been a lurker on this board since last month's lucky board, as I was due at the same time as all of you in May. I'm now hoping you don't mind my crashing in, I'm hoping for a little advice and/or sympathy. I'm just so confused but I'll try and keep it short. I'm 34, and 'TTC' #1.

I had my implant removed in December, and after first bleed, I then had cycles of 26, 24, 24, 22, 22 days. So getting shorter but reasonably consistent.

Then this cycle (day 1 was 1st May) I'm now on CD 34 and every day since day 22 had BFN on IC. The day before what would have been a 22 day cycle I had PMT - I broke out, cramping. All the usual. And then AF just never appeared.

We aren't "trying" but we are no longer preventing so I haven't tracked ovulation and have no idea if/when it happened. If I ovulated anything past 19th May, there's no chance I could be pregnant, so absolute least I could be is 15DPO.

Reading on here, some people don't register positive until 6 weeks pregnant. Some people just skip periods for no reason? I'm guessing skipped period more likely.

I know realistically there's nothing I can do but sit back and wait. But urgh it's so frustrating. I'm definitely not trying to get false hope going, I'm kind of ok with a BFP or a BFN, it's the not knowing that's driving me nuts. Can I safely crack out the G&T to make the wait for AF a little easier.
Confused

AnxiousAnnie86 · 03/06/2020 11:35

@confuuused hey and welcome!!

You could of unfortunately skipped, my periods have been all over a year after the coil removal? 22 days seems short, is that what they were before? Maybe you could start temping? To give you an idea of cycles? Just to give you a good idea before you really start trying? Xxx

OP posts:
confuuused · 03/06/2020 11:54

I have no idea to be honest. I've been on implants for 8 years, and the pill before that since I was 16. I've learnt more about my body in the past 5 months than I have in the previous 33 years!

I tried temping for about two weeks a few cycles back but didn't realise it had to be before getting up so wasn't very accurate! It's all so complicated.

Honestly right now I feel betrayed. All those times in my uni days I forgot to take my pill on time, and the subsequent days of worrying that I could have gotten pregnant. Completely unnecessary it was all lies! 😂

AnxiousAnnie86 · 03/06/2020 14:32

@confuuused haha, maybe you could start using opks? I use the one step ones from amazon they are crazy cheap! Like 9 quid for 75! X

OP posts:
JustMouse · 03/06/2020 20:47

Confuuused - If you don't mind spending some money, then I would recommend ovusense.

Like yourself when tracking my temp, I found it difficult to remember to do it before getting out of bed. But with Ovusense, I remove it, have a shower and then download the data to my phone.

AnxiousAnnie86 · 03/06/2020 21:08

@JustMouse I've never heard of Ovusense and I have heard of pretty much all of it now! what is it? X
