[Loladoodle]

New thread for you ladies. Let’s bring on the Bfps!!

@Lynnysong you are so dedicated to this!! You so deserve your bfp!

Awwwww @Matilda19 how gorgeous!! Lots of puppy cuddles!x

@Lynnysong you’ve got this and we are all here to support you throughout.

@Matilda19 so cute! My OH wants a puppy- I’ve said sure after we’ve had babies!

Sorry ladies I'm just coming on here for a moan. I say I'm 5DPO but I have a feeling I might be 6 as had ovulation pains Sunday night. Don't they say that you get another progesterone surge around this time? I think that's why I'm feeling in such a shitty mood😣 just generally miserable, bloated today, got back ache & slight pains like AF might come early. So I'm currently sat in the garden drinking a gin to see if that will help my miserable face!🙈
Anyone else feeling shitty & fed up or is it just me🙉

Hey ladies AF arrived today so I'm glad to be at Day1!
I'm rubbish at reading and replying to people's posts but I have read them. I'll try to work out how to use this forum better. I'm so rubbish at technology. Sending you all loads of love and baby dust xxx

Thanks for all your kindness ladies. Been on a lovely bike ride today, so feel a bit more cheery now.

@Chlo2701 yes my mood drops pretty much straight after ovulation. Oestrogen makes you feel great, so as soon as it drops at/after ovulation time, mood tends to sink. Sooo, I pretty much feel crap most cycle... 🙁🤔😩😂

@selina37 honestly I only feel like I have 2 good weeks out of the month if that makes sense. My good weeks are just after starting AF & the following wk. Then I just feel like shit the 2wks leading up to my period. Men have it easy!

@Loladoodle @Muda Thank you, I've got teared up there about how supportive everyone is. I don't think I could do this alone.

I'm going to make a big chart of my cycle and what I'm taking when. It's getting beyond me to remember lol

I'm feeling sick again 🤢 thought it was because I'm hungry earlier (haven't eaten much today) but no, have eaten a big plate of stir-fry and still feel sick.

Oddly if this is 'morning sickness' it would seem to be following the same pattern as my period pain - I only get that from about 4pm till bed time and now 2 days in a row I've felt sick after 4pm

@selina37 @Chlo2701 I'm the exact same. Hormones affect my mood so much. As soon as I ovulate my mood really drops for a day or two. It then perks up a bit until PMS starts about a week before AF. Love how I feel the day before ovulate though, wish I was like that all the time. 😂😂

@claireb707 sorry you are feeling sick. Hopefully it might be a good sign though. How many dpo are you?

3dpo here, but no hope this cycle as I ovulated on day 9/10.

10dpo today, period due Tuesday

Thanks all were totally in love. So excited started painting the new bedroom was so nice me and fiance doing it together. All I kept thinking was roll on new bed for more fun ttc xx

Hormones are mean things never realised how much the implant kept me level headed xx

@Posy1 I know what you're saying! Around ovulation I'm horny & full of it & then I just feel crappy & deflated🙈 OH is making us cocktails now! I just wish this backache would do one.
@Matilda19 I like that.... roll on new bed for more TTC fun😈xx

@Matilda19 omg they are SOOOO cute!!! 😍😍😍

@Eviesma welcome to your first official cycle! 😃

@Chlo2701 @claireb707 sorry you ladies are feeling crappy! Sending virtual hugs! 😘 I'm the week before AF, and I've been super weepy the past couple of days! DH forgot to make guac with our chilli the other day and I burst into tears! 🙈😂 I'm feeling better after a baking frenzy today! 😈

So grateful to have you ladies to talk through all this, and I'm loving hearing your experiences and knowledge! 😘

@M4v3r1ck me you are the same DPO. Let me know if & when you start symptom spotting🙊x

Hey ladies, finally caught up. It's been busy on here today. Hope you're all ok. @Lynnysong I second that, this group have been amazing. You have all had me crying. Sad tears and happy ones. Im so excited to share all your bfp with you.

@Matilda19 omg!!! Your puppy! 😍😍😍 More cute puppy pics please. Hows your new bedroom coming on?

@Loladoodle you doing ok? Where in your cycle are you now?

@Happyhappy37 hope you're ok? Xx

hey hope everyone is having a good Saturday night 😊

I had a spare hour there and spent it all looking through posts here and various websites. I'm fairly sure I posted about 4 or 5 days ago saying how we were going to give things a try naturally and not get obsessed in the beginning........I just bought pregnacare vitamins, ovulation sticks, a thermometer and a couple of pregnancy tests (just in case this is my lucky month)......I guess I lied 😂

@claireb707 I'm 10dpo too, feeling a bit crappy as well, hope we get some good news soon fx

🤞 @Lynnysong

Has anyone had random stabbing pains here??

All evening it feels like stabbing / pins & needles - on both hands

And in fact the 3 fingers on that side of my hand now have pins and needles 😩

I have had nerve issues before but never had pain there before. I've been told I have cubital tunnel syndrome (like carpal but the other nerve in your arm) but not felt this before. I know pregnancy can cause / make worse carpal - wonder if it's the same for the other nerve??

@Chlo2701 Hormones absolutely rule me! I'm the same. Great coming up to ovulation, I just seen capable of anything, then down I go again!

Really makes me question what being on the pill can do to your body, whether that's good or bad, and the lasting effects it can have.

Anybody else due to test soon? Excited for some more bfps!

@M4v3r1ck@MrsTtobe
Thank you shes a beaut.

Room is moroccan themed. Got wal lights up just white washed walls ready to paint. All wood left wood no gloss. Gettung big 4 poster bed can't wait

Good luck all. Unsure if ovulated or not trued tracking and did get peak and then reduced. So if go by that im 3dpo

So the wait begins xx

@lucieloos I'll be testing soon, just trying to figure out the best day :)
