Thanks @MichT4 and @VP91x 😘 trying to relax and let go, I know that there's not much I can do about it anyway, but still sooooo frustrating. My doctor says that things are probably still all over the place because of my really slow Hcg drop so he wasn't too concerned that I had skipped a period in June. I just wish AF would arrive so I have some sense of where I am in my cycle going forward.

@SmileyT a few years ago I had gotten off the pill and then never got a period for a while! It was such a mess that I had to go back on the pill just to regulate myself again. I'm just dreading having to reach that point again 🙈 So I apparently ovulated about two weeks ago (got my cb static and temp rise), so I would guess I'm about CD29. I counted my drop in Hcg to negative as CD1. I haven't been sleeping well this past week, so I'm hoping that maybe that's the reason for a whacky cycle, but I just don't know 😞

@HopeForRainbowbaby aaah I wish I was! But no bfp for me yet. Just a string of negatives unfortunately!

@Jazper yeah I agree you can still start to test with the cheapies youll see the line progression anyway 🥰

Hi @Jazper I've never used cb but have used lots of cheapies and I don't think it's too late to start testing-yeah would have been good to see the full progression but you can still see a change in the color of the cheapies even if you start testing now. I use easy at home and I then enter it in the premom app so it gives you a score against each opk and it makes it easy to follow. Good luck x

Thanks for setting the new bus up @VP91x
I got what you are saying about the long cycle or short LP. It's just an absolute mind buggery this tracking ov, I've concluded.

Question ladies, as I don't want to spam the start of the new thread up with questions and answers just as people are introducing themselves and their journeys...
If I started testing with cheapies now, at cd17, alongside my cb smug flashing smilies, would they give me an idea as to how far away ov is? Or did I really need to test throughout so I could have seen progression?

@Jazper I'm going to maybe mention it and see if he is up for it. But my cycle last month was 32 days. If I'm ovulating now on CD25/26 it wouldn't make sense to have a 36/37 day cycle or a super short LP maybe. It's probably an anovulatory cycle which is frustrating because I had all the signs of ovulating 😭 x

@Diorissimo1985 please don't worry, is it worth giving your doctor a ring and saying what you're feelojg right now and see if they have any advice about the aspirin or something they can offer in the meantime? I think it is worth ringing! I hope you enjoy your day with your daughter.

@MichT4 haha yeah between that and Moana! Not sure was going to try and convince my partner to drive to southend when he got back from work abit later on 🤔 let's see.

@SmileyT I know such a pain, but my partner wanted a bit of R&R from this months stint so, I think that's it for this cycle. Don't want to force it. How are you? Xx

So true @HopeForRainbowbaby ☺️ x

Thank you @SmileyT, reassuring to know as it's only my second cycle of OPK's so I naively just hoped it would be the same as last month. I'm sure I used to ov earlier than this though 🙄

@VP91x I'm so sorry you didn't get the temp shift you expected. As @SmileyT said, could you dtd today to cover yourself in case of a delayed shift? I get your OH needing r&r though, (as frustrating as it is for you). People say ttc is the most magical time ever and I'm finding it so stressful 😭

Hallo ladies, I think with all stress around ttc we all deserve some good time to relax and be ready for this beautiful sticky bean ( or to enjoy early pregnancy for those who had thei BFPs;)). The weather is great this week, treat yourself well. The happy mother to be, the happy sticky bean;) as the say 😘

@Jazper 😭 that damn smug bastard again! This month is turning into a real pain in the arse cycle wise it seems. Maybe the egg just needs another day to be perfect

SmileyT · 24/06/2020 08:26

Boo to no temp rise @VP91x could you DTD over today or tomorrow? Sometimes it can take a couple days after peak to see a temp rise I think 🤔 I'm all good apart from wishing the week away as work is so mental but I guess at least it means the days to quick x

@Diorissimo1985 stay positive lovely if you do catch it is a positive and here's hoping you have a sticky bean 🤞

I am working this morning, and then later maybe a walk or will go and sit in my sisters garden. Have to take advantage of this weather ☀️☀️

@VP91x that one does seem like a firm favourite! Any plans today? Going to be scorching!

I’m fine thanks, I feel tired today, but I think it’s linked with the heavy pollen eyes. I ate like an absolute animal yesterday so back to training and eating well today (another day 1 😂). I feel more positive again after a day with my Mum, but I’m sure the rollercoaster will take a turn at some point today

@diorissimo1985 don’t you be worrying yourself. It’s still potentially early for implantation so it could be something else, or it could be implantation but that doesn’t mean the same will happen.
Have a lovely day with DD in the sunshine and try and relax. What do you have planned?

Diorissimo1985 · 24/06/2020 08:06

Morning ladies, have been a bit quiet as have been busy with work - it’s my day off with DD today though. In my 2ww now and the weird pelvic pain is back that I got with both miscarriages. I guess this stacks up with the inflammation diagnosis but I’m worried implantation has happened and my body is already fighting it. Not sure what to do... I started a couple of threads asking about when to start taking low dose aspirin and the general consensus was after bfp. I’m only about 5/6 dpo so I’m think I’m just freaking out a bit. Probably need to brace myself for loss number 3 if this one does catch Sad

@MichT4 bleurgh, I really do think that is it for this month. So frustrating, just have to ride it out now. Partner wants to have a bit of R&R for a few days before having sex again, so no option there anyway.

We are watching Finding Dory (9000th time I've seen it) how are you today xx

@VP91x nooo don’t lose hope yet. Here’s the link to the different charts.
I know you’re not feeling hopeful, but don’t make conclusions yet. Plus, if you haven’t ovulated yet, DTD again today

@MichT4 no not a chance, ignore what femometer thinks I ovulated that app is batshit. But yeah definitely no proper temp rise. This month has been a shitter. Sigh xx
