Not added anyone that I don’t have dates for but I’ve not forgotten you just let me know when you know you ovulate/ know your test dates ☺️

@SmileyT we only had sex one additional time...! I'm just clutching at straws 😂

@J0DI3 could it be implantation bleeding? I've never had it myself 🤞🤞

@Newbie9 that's great yay!!!!

lucyrp · 17/06/2020 19:57

@J0DI3 i had that yesterday and the day before it was pale pink/ pale brown although that means nothing to you as i was 22dpo yesterday so 😂

J0DI3 · 17/06/2020 20:02

@LV1987 I have no idea but I’m going to research it right now!

@lucyrp I’ve never had it before so wondered what it was. It’s probably nothing and I’m just reading into every change in my body atm!

chloedancer897 · 17/06/2020 20:09

@Newbie0818 congratulations! You were due AF same day as me, did you use FRER? I tested this morning with CB early response and it was BFN 😭

Newbie0818 · 17/06/2020 20:18

I think there's two newbies here now lol. I'm not the one who got a bfp. I'm due af today apparently but I think I actually ovulated yesterday... so here's to another tww!

Cocoblue22 · 17/06/2020 20:21

Another busy day for me and now I'm ready to have a great big catch up on the world of MN....

@vil10 365 days DNI on Netflix heard good things about it saving it for Saturday 😉 x

@lucyrp your situation is proper rubbish. I'd deffo phone drs and ask them to do it I'm sure they will if you explain about the midwife being mean x

@Minster2012 thanks for explaining I guess it makes sense for them to scan and check then but must be frustrating for you to have to get over that hurdle again too before TTC. I hope they go smoothly and you can start your Ivf ASAP....well actually no I hope you conceive this month first but as a back up I hope that for you too. Either way I really really really want you to get your BFP and experience carrying your child your story is just so inspirational and you deserve to get your happy ending so so much x

@SmileyT barabados sounds exciting! When? Have you been before? It's on my holiday wish list I'd love to go x

@lucyrp and everyone else too this is something interesting that a midwife told my friend....some embryos cells take longer to divide than others so some women can be pregnant a lot longer than others so for me my pg was just short of 37 weeks taking the first two weeks off my friend went to 42 weeks officially yet our due dates were one day apart and she knows for sure she ovulated two weeks before me so at her scan when they do the actual dd from measurements her dd was the day before mine which is so bizarre as they thought she wasn't as far along as she was. So this made me think this could also be you Lucy x

Only at early afternoon but posting then keeping on reading or my post will be an essay! X

Cocoblue22 · 17/06/2020 20:38

@Vil10 totally get that feeling of when's it my turn I felt like that for years watching my friends meet their mr right and get engaged and married. Got mine in the end though and he was every bit worth the wait x

@blodyn91 I said the same as you wish I'd come off the pill at Xmas doh! X

@LV1987 that sounds like one manic day! Put your feet up and chill now that's a lot to contend with. You sound no more mad than the rest of us! Hope your OH and kids are okay X

@J0DI3 yesss pee on the stick! If you want to POAS you do it don't listen to him! After Friday of course 😈 x

@Newbie9 congratulations on BFP 🎉 x

KateColx · 17/06/2020 20:41

@Ltay2 it's crazy isn't it?! Half of me wishes I hadn't started looking into it all and just gone with the flow but once I get my mind set on something I can't help myself 😂 peeing on your hand 😂😂😂

@Vil10 this will be cycle 3 of properly trying. But only the second month of tracking with CB, and the first month of trying all the additional hints and tips haha. Fingers crossed this is a lucky cycle for both of us🤞🏻

Trying to keep positive rather than feeling sorry for myself every day 😂 so think I might treat myself to a new Ann summers delivery before FW kicks in. Any suggestions anyone? Any little faves you would recommend haha x

Juno231 · 17/06/2020 20:42

@SmileyT yep it was today, I'm knackered now as it was 2h15min long! Treating myself to wine and mcdonalds tonight as a result 😋. That's really good you'll be able to roll forward that many days! I'm only allowed five and they'd have to be taken by end of march so this month would be my last shot at using them for mat leave 😂. Ain't gonna happen!

@LV1987 I believe in you lol, got my fingers crossed!

Cocoblue22 · 17/06/2020 20:44

@Juno231 I believe due to corona work places have to let you roll holidays over for the next two years but don't quote me on that x

Cocoblue22 · 17/06/2020 20:47

Okay so last month was first cycle TTC first off pill with out of date sticks.

So this month is cycle 2 with fresh shiny CB sticks. Not doing anything extra other than taking pregnacare and folic acid which I started before finishing my last pill packet so did that last month too x

So if this month doesn't work what else should I try adding in next month to increase chances I've seen lots of different things on here but if someone could summarise them and tell me what each thing is for that would be fantastic please 🙏🏻😘 answers on a postcard TIA xx

lucyrp · 17/06/2020 20:47

@Cocoblue22 i'm waiting for the doctor to ring me back tomorrow morning so wonder what she'll say then. oh yeah i have heard that too! also something which i found funny is that sometimes you can get a negative even if you're pregnant as you could be pregnant with twins and there's one day when the cell splits so you would have a negative test! x

@KateColx kegel balls! or the moregasm bullet! apparently the rocks off ones are good from love honey too x

Newbie9 · 17/06/2020 20:50

@Cocoblue22 thank you x

Juno231 · 17/06/2020 20:59

@Newbie9 tell us everything!

@Cocoblue22 omg that would be brilliant, definitely hoping it's true!

Newbie9 · 17/06/2020 21:07

@Juno231 hi lovely I tested yesterday, af due today and got my BFP Smile
Been feeling ok, tired and had some mild cramping around 8dpo which was possibly implantation X

Vil10 · 17/06/2020 21:08

@Cocoblue22 I'm so glad he's worth the wait!! And you'll definitely get your BFP soon!!

@Newbie9 congratulations!!

@KateColx yes this is my first month of trying everything too! I'm having folic acid, grapefruit juice, pineapple, Brazil nuts and seed cycling😂 what are you taking?x

blodyn91 · 17/06/2020 21:10

@KateColx Ive order two set of lingerie, and crotchless pants, thats how wild I am 🙈🙈

@Cocoblue22 So might take longer than we like for our hormones to balance out post pill, but some things to help- multi vitamins (as being on the pill strips you of your B vitamins), seed cycling (pumpkin and linseed before ovulation, sunflower an sesame seed after ovulation). Grapefruit juice from CD1 till ovulation, pomegranate juice after ovulation? Pineapple core after ovulation for 5 days (not too much a day as its high in Selemium I think?). This is what Ive picked up so far.
Did you ovulate last month? I didn't track my first two cycles

KateColx · 17/06/2020 21:11

@lucyrp oh yeah I remember you saying about the balls now! I'm going to have a look on the websites now 👀 thank you 😘

@Vil10 haha same as you really, folic acid, grapefruit juice and evening primrose oil, plus I've bought some preseed lube and might give that a go too! Read some good things about it online. What's the deal with pineapple core and Brazil nuts again? Are they after ovulation? 😂🙈

KateColx · 17/06/2020 21:12

@blodyn91 haha cheeky little crotchless number eh! I'm off to have a look now 😂👀

blodyn91 · 17/06/2020 21:24

Pineapple is after and helps with implantation as it has Bromelanin (or some sort of enzyme that sounds like that) that supposedly reduces inflammation. No scientific evidence mind 🤷🏼‍♀️

J0DI3 · 17/06/2020 21:32

@Cocoblue22 he wants me to do it tonight now I’ve had that show 😂

chloedancer897 · 17/06/2020 21:32

So sorry @Newbie0818 for tagging you!

Cocoblue22 · 17/06/2020 21:42

@lucyrp I didn't think about that for the twins scenario x

@Juno231 I'd certainly ask because I'm sure they said every company had to honour it and can't say no to rolling them over to next year or even 2022. Find out and if you can save them for Mat leave x

@Vil10 I hope so but I actually feel that it's only cycle 2 for me and there's loads of ladies on here that deserve to get their BFPs this month before me although I know that chance doesn't work like that and it's really rubbish for all the ladies who have to wait longer than everyone else x

@blodyn91 I always take the multivitamin anyway used to be on berocca but switched to pregnacare but they aren't much different to be fair and I take high dose prescription folic acid due to my ulcerative colitis when TTC. I haven't tried any of that stuff if it doesn't work this time I will next time although I like pineapple so may do that one anyway it's the ass fruit juice I don't want to have to take 🤮 I don't know if i ovulated my CB advanced monitor didn't pick it up but I was also using sticks that were two years out of date so don't know for certain but I'm guessing probably now since it was first month after coming off the pill. Had my first real af last week though so 🤞🏻 for a nice juicy egg this month! Thanks for the tips x

@J0DI3 men eh! You do it when you're ready but Id Deffo wait for FMU for a better result x

SmileyT · 17/06/2020 21:51

@DontGoJasonWaterfalls well I hope your period doesn't show and you get your BFP instead and then it doesn't matter when you ovulated ☺️

@Ltay2 I'm so happy you are able to get back in the game this month, are your cycles normally 28days?

Massive congrats @Newbie9 🥳

@Cocoblue22 yeah my grandparents were born there so I've been loads and my grandad built a house there about 5 years ago so will be good to get back out there 😎 going in November for 2 weeks, cannot wait, if I'm 5months pregnant at the time even better xx

@Juno231 ahh that's annoying I have friends who were forced to take two weeks in March so crappy. We normally have to use ours by March but they've extended because of corona although I'm hoping if I get pregnant this month March will be perfect to tack them onto Mat leave 🤞 also over 2hrs wowser bet you smashed it xx

@J0DI3 ooh let us know how you get on 🤞 🤞

OP posts:
J0DI3 · 17/06/2020 22:31

@Cocoblue22 I think I will wait until at least tomorrow morning. I’ll see how I feel when I wake up, who knows AF might show first but hoping not 🤞🏼

@SmileyT you guys will more than likely be the first to know 😂
