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 ☺️

@J0DI3 ahh cycle buddy congrats I’ve just seen your great news that is amazing! How you feeling?! Come join us on the grads bus 🎉🎉 I’m still majorly freaking out and a nervous wreck but I’ve calmed down a bit since day one I can imagine your head is scrambled!

blodyn91 · 18/06/2020 14:11

@Cocoblue22 it says on mine that they are fine for TTC and pregnancy, but they recommend to switch to the pregcare. I already had them so just took them, will switch if I get pregnant.
But I do love pate! 😝 and I chuck liver is stews, think its the best super food out there! 😂 (will obviously not eat them after ovulation)

Sydgal22 · 18/06/2020 14:11

@LV1987 sorry about AF, here’s to a happy productive next cycle for you ❤️

@lucyrp so sorry to hear you’re still going through the wars, Altho I’m glad the midwife was nice to you on the phone, hope it helped a little x

Cocoblue22 · 18/06/2020 14:23

@lucyrp pregnacare are on three for 2 at boots and usually about £4.50 or £4 in morrisons but not on 3 for 2 that's for a months worth (30) glad you got to speak to the nice midwife x

@blodyn91 🤮 I couldn't eat either of those! As long as your vits say they are fine that's good they don't contain vitamin a tho they look similar to pregnacare just slight different quantities x

lucyrp · 18/06/2020 14:25

@Cocoblue22 i checked in boots and they were £9 for 30! she would be my actual midwife if i ever get my BFP where as the other one has just been the one who's been on call the days i ring so i'm glad my actual one is lovely x

Cocoblue22 · 18/06/2020 14:36

@lucyrp I don't use the preconception just the pregnacare original and they are £4.50 for 30 and on 3 4 2 x

lucyrp · 18/06/2020 14:37

@Cocoblue22 what are the pregnacare original i thought they were just for when you're pregnant ? there was a pregnant woman on the front lol x

Busybee143 · 18/06/2020 14:42

@SmileyT
Hello, I'm on cycle number 7 I think.
I got pregnant on cycle number 2 but had a miscarriage at 8 weeks in November.
Then I got pregnant in February but miscarried at 8 weeks late March. This is my second cycle after that miscarriage, we use a donor as we are a same sex couple and we've inseminated twice this time and a little earlier than normal.
I feel quite chilled at the moment, I figure what will be will be and I'm just trying to get on with my days without contemplating I'm pregnant.
What about you?

Cocoblue22 · 18/06/2020 14:42

If you look at the ingredients there doesn't seem much different the preconception have three extra things in at the top! And the amounts vary slightly but I figured if they are fine for pregnancy they are fine for before too it's what I took last time before I TTC my DS and all the way through pregnancy too. The conception ones might be slightly better but I've attached the ingredients first one is conception second is pregnant ones I can't see much difference x

@Busybee143 hello and welcome 👋🏻 I'm cycle 2 CD10 atm x

Newbie0818 · 18/06/2020 14:48

Well results are in, all normal apart from one thing on my bloods (which I anticipate is a lack of ovulation by day 21), and the lady doctor is going to call me tomorrow.

blodyn91 · 18/06/2020 15:24

@Cocoblue22 that also interesting, thanks for sharing, I'll definitely get the one your on if they are that much cheaper! I also eat very healthy anyway. (once this pack I have is finished).

Welcome @Busybee143 so sorry about the twi MC 😔 I'm CD 11, Cycle 3

blodyn91 · 18/06/2020 15:26

@Newbie0818 sounds promising. Have you been ttc a while? (sorry if you've said before(

2020mission · 18/06/2020 15:26

Congratulations to all who have got their BFPs this June 🥳

Just want to quickly post to say AF arrived for me today, so my 15th July test date for next month was the correct estimation.

I've got some cheap ovulation sticks to try in July for the first time as 4 cycles with only app estimations has just not worked for me. If anyone has any suggestions for me to try on top of just eating well and taking folic acid 400mcg and 10mcg vitamin D, I'd really appreciate any!

We did have a chemical on cycle 1 TTC so I have a bit of hope that we have a chance of something sticking some day 🤞all the best to all still waiting and trying!

Busybee143 · 18/06/2020 15:36

@blodyn91 @Cocoblue22
Hello guys, seems we are in similar places

Good luck to us this month hey!

Boc86 · 18/06/2020 15:39

I’m 8dpo and testing 20th June
I have symptoms but they could definitely be AF symptoms too

lucyrp · 18/06/2020 15:41

@Cocoblue22 oh yeah doesn't seem to be much difference! x

lucyrp · 18/06/2020 15:47

@Newbie0818 hope everything is fine for you! x

Newbie0818 · 18/06/2020 15:52

@blodyn91 it'll be a year in August

@lucyrp thanks! I reckon they might put me on something to bring ovulation forward if af arrives in two weeks

SarahTTC2020 · 18/06/2020 16:14

Wow that was a mammoth catch up! Sorry to all those with AF 😥
And congrats to the bfps! I do like to see them

Haven't been on for a few days, mainly because I'm in my super long follicular phase so not much going on... CD10 and fw not due to start for another 2 weeks but might start testing from CD20 as I ov on cd26 last time. Long cycles are very boring 😣

Juno231 · 18/06/2020 16:15

@lucyrp @Cocoblue22 those top 3 are the bits that are beneficial to TTC but if you're just looking for vits that are safe to take when pregnant then it doesn't matter much between the two!

@Newbie0818 let us know what the bloods say, got my fingers crossed for you!

@Busybee143 sorry to hear about all your miscarriages - let's hope this bus brings you lots of baby dust and you get a sticky bean soon xx

Busybee143 · 18/06/2020 16:31

@Juno231
Thank you, I'm hoping I will get a little sticky bean soon ❤️

Vil10 · 18/06/2020 16:40

@Busybee143 welcome!! So sorry about your miscarriages, I hope you get your BFP soon!!

So girls, just a quick question, when you all get ovulation pains do you tend to get them on the same side all the time or different? I know that it's a myth that we ovulate alternate sides every month, so it's normal to have it on one side for a few months but I feel like I can't remember the last time I had ov pain in my right side, making me think maybe there's something wrong with that side??

SmileyT · 18/06/2020 17:08

@Missgoldilocks I think we are all the same, the TWW is the worst because there is literally nothing more to do but come on here and rant whenever you fancy it i dung it helps 😂

@lucyrp so nice of the midwife to call and that you know WHEN you get pregnant you'll have some kind support 🙏 I feel like ttc is just lots of waiting it's so looonnng

@Busybee143 I like your relaxed attitude it is so true we can't change the outcome by stressing. I'm CD6 of cycle 3 following a MMC at just under 8w in March, we weren't trying when I fell in March so honestly thought it would happen straight away after reading how fertile you are after MC but alas still waiting for yet another fertile window ☺️

@SarahTTC2020 how are you keeping yourself busy? xx

@Vil10 since I've been tracking they have always been on right side for me and in MC that's the ovary they said the egg came from, somebody on here mentioned it doesn't have to alternate each month but for some women it does. I've decided it's normal and trying not to panic as when I had my scans they didn't say there was anything up and don't need something else to stress about.

Also I'm not taking any multivitamins. Might need to add them next month 🤔

Juno231 · 18/06/2020 17:11

@vil10 the last three months have been on my right and I think it was my left back in Feb. Nothing to worry about I don't think!
