@xoJellyBean are your charts normally jagged like that? Was it the same time each day? There's a clear rise which is awesome though x

xoJellyBean · 11/10/2020 09:28

@Newbie0818 never been this jagged but this is my first month temping after a while 🙈 roughly same time apart from a couple at the start of my period. Femometer gave a big pink exclamation mark to saying something was up😭

@xoJellyBean and you don't have pcos do you? Because I know pcos charts are often jagged like mine. I'm sure it's just an off month but it's good it's a rise :) don't worry too much x

xoJellyBean · 11/10/2020 18:02

@Newbie0818 not that I know of, no symptoms for it but my mum had it so there's still a possibility! Thank you, I'll try not to panic but as you know it's so hard not to 🤣 my boobs have started to get tender so this is normal for me coming up to af x

@xoJellyBean aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Okay I’m going to wait for a few more people to reply before I call my husband haha

Pol96 · 12/10/2020 08:59

@xoJellyBean yep I had and still get the dry mouth thing..

@Newbie0818 yay ovulation!!

@justlonelystars I see it!! That's how mine started out!

Ended up in the maternity triage last night for reduced movement.. I was so scared.. Luckily he's okay and since having a bath when I got home he's been wriggly again but Omg he is not allowed to do that to me again! X

justlonelystars · 12/10/2020 09:07

@Pol96 I can hardly believe it to be honest!!

Glad to hear your little one is doing okay. Fingers crossed everything else goes smoothly for you!

@xoJellyBean I just saw your post about dry mouth/dizziness etc. I know it’s still early for me and maybe not even definitely a pregnancy but I have been feeling dizzy the past couple of weeks and SO HUNGRY. Nauseous at points too. I haven’t been getting dry mouth but sometimes my mouth has been tasting really sour and acidy if that makes sense?

xoJellyBean · 12/10/2020 10:02

@justlonelystars eeeek I'm sure you're buzzing!!! What dpo are you? I have been having dizzy spells at least 1-2 times a day and so thirsty, here's hoping it's a good sign for me too lol

@Pol96 oh my word!! I'm sure that gave you the fright of your life 😱 glad all is ok x

justlonelystars · 12/10/2020 10:05

@xoJellyBean 12 DPO. Period due on 14 October so hopefully I’ll have a more solid line by Thursday!

xoJellyBean · 12/10/2020 10:07

@justlonelystars was this your first test? I'm 9dpo😱 resisting the urge to test. Did you temp?

OP posts:
xoJellyBean · 12/10/2020 10:07

@justlonelystars sorry just remembered you told me you didn't temp 🙈

OP posts:
justlonelystars · 12/10/2020 10:14

@xoJellyBean no, I tested on 10 and 11 too but they were obviously BFN. I very nearly didn’t test this morning as I couldn’t really be bothered with seeing another negative but I’m very glad I did! Fingers crossed for you!

Pol96 · 12/10/2020 10:17

@xoJellyBean very scary.. The midwife was lovely though. Was awful that my oh wasn't allowed in with me though
When do you think you'll test?

@justlonelystars ooh soo exciting! Keep us updated!

xoJellyBean · 12/10/2020 10:57

@justlonelystars ahh fab :) have you told your oh yet??

@Pol96 oh my, that's awful having to go alone!! The rules have just recently been relaxed for us so if I do get lucky with a wee sticky bean this month my hubby will be allowed in for scans etc. I think I'll test at 14dpo, if it's negative then I know it's defo negative lol how far along are you?

OP posts:
justlonelystars · 12/10/2020 11:01

@xoJellyBean yes I phoned him up as he’s at work! He’s thrilled! Fingers crossed for you in 5 days time, keep us updated.

Pol96 · 12/10/2020 11:05

@xoJellyBean my oh was allowed for scans, but had to leave for appointments and can't come in to emergency appointments or labour until 4cms dilated at the moment, then can only visit for 45 mins a day if I have to stay in.. It varies a lot from area to area. I'll be 26 weeks on Thursday.. Potentially just over 11 weeks left!! (or up to 16weeks..) I have a private scan for 27+2 so I can see his little face again (and hopefully come up with a name 😅)
I have my fingers crossed for you that you have got a sticky bean and that test will be positive! X

Hello, hope I’m okay to hop on here! I’ve been trying to avoid joining because I want to be chilled out about everything and not stress but I’m failing at it miserably 🙈
I came off the pill start of August and been trying to conceive since. I had a normal withdrawal bleed then a proper period at the end of August. I’ve been on the pill on and off for 12 years, went back on it about 5 years ago after a year of two off. Looking back, I think my cycles were about 6 or 7 weeks and I never knew exactly when I’d get my period. Never bothered me at the time but now I’m so worried
Currently cycle day 39, I had pain in my lower right side and cramps on around day 25 for a few days was sure it was my period but nothing. Also had EWCM days 14 and 15!
I have no clue what my body is doing, I know it could just be from coming off the pill but considering I’m sure they were long/ irregular cycles before, I have absolutely convinced myself I’m infertile.
Don’t want to see GP quite yet because I know they’ll say to give it more time off the pill but I’m driving myself crazy in the meantime

justlonelystars · 12/10/2020 15:08

@Bs93 hi! I wouldn’t get too disheartened yet...it took 4 months for me to even have a period after coming off the pill having been on it for about 6 years! Are you temping or doing LH tests to track ovulation?

Bs93 · 12/10/2020 15:16

Hello! Thanks for your reply 😊
I totally don’t mind that I’m not pregnant yet because I know it’s very early days, just worried it will never happen, think I’m just freaking myself out
I haven’t been, because I’ve been trying to just have sex every other day and not overthink everything. Thinking I’ll wait til it hits 6 months and then step it up!
How long have you been trying? And how are your cycles now? 😊

justlonelystars · 12/10/2020 15:56

@Bs93 3 months/cycles of trying. My cycles are normally 40 days exactly but the past two have been weird (30 days and 46 days respectively) but it looks like I’ve conceived this cycle! I came off the pill about 2 years ago though due to mental health issues with it rather than wanting to have a baby 2 years ago. Tbh I’d absolutely convinced myself that I was infertile due to some health issues I have, but having done LH tests and BBT tracking I’ve had the comfort my body is doing what it’s meant to do, even if it’s on a slightly longer than normal cycle!

Newbie0818 · 12/10/2020 16:10

@justlonelystars aahhhh yes! Test again each day x

@Pol96 aww I love you're calling bubba "he"! So real! And poor you that must have been scary. Glad he's all ok now x.

@Bs93 welcome :) like others have said don't worry yet, just try to relax and keep healthy x

I'm 5dpo now I think, still not sure for definite about ov but definitely have a little rise...

xoJellyBean · 12/10/2020 20:21

Just found this! To test or not to test tomorrow at 10dpo?🙈
