Morning ladies

Unbelievably pee’d off. 15dpo. Temp increased this morning instead of continuing to drop. Bfn and No sign of AF still. When to loo second time this morning and on a wipe the smallest bit of pink tinged colour. Still can feel cervix at all as it’s too high. So dunno if it’s af starting. Just ready for her to come now for new cycle

Still can’t feel cervix*

@Dipsy77 ah that's so frustrating, I'm sorry. I hope you feel a bit better soon and your Dh can hopefully get some more physio with his back soon and it will help. ❤️

@Hayleylou89 I'm sure everything is going is well with little bean in there. It seems like your PG is going quickly for some reason 😂 although I've spent the best part of a month waiting to ovulate so maybe that's why. Glad you are being looked after. I'm sure you can't wait for another scan xx

@Wishingfornumber2 thank you 🥰
Ahh it's positive that AF hasnt shown today though, but yes still early isn't it! So annoying when LP is shorter than the '14' and even when AF is due its still technically early. I hope AF stays away. Do you have any other pre AF signs that haven't shown up? Fingers crossed for you! ❤️

@2020wish sorry that you're still in limbo, did you test again this morning? X

@Hayleylou89 hi babe xx good.luck with your appointment today xx yeah AF finished now :) my fertile window will start this weekend and DH and I have said to class that whole week as the fertile week as my peak will be around the middle of next week so as long as we DTD plenty between this weekend and next weekend we will be covered . Last few cycles I've seen my peak opk and DTD on those days and plenty before and obvs hasnt worked for me so think I need to be more relaxed and chilled .
So obvs this cycle I'm not really doing anything. No temping opks etc. The only thing I'm not sure whether to use is pre seed /CP lube ... as when we used this before I got PG ... and I also dont really remember ever seeing much EWCM around fertile times . So I'll see in the fertile week if CM lacking I may use that xxxxx

@VP91x no it's an old house right behind the station, there is supposed to be a load of new builds going up over the next 5years which is part of the reason we picked it as hoping everything will go up in value 💰

@Hayleylou89 hope the appt goes well 🙏

CD11 for me and tried to DTD this morning but it was not happening, feel so fed up because we actually had more sex before ttc but when I talk to OH about stopping he says that really isn't what he wants, but no idea what to do 😭

@SmileyT yeah you will definitely get loads of value on it, so much is meant to be done in that area!

Oh no that is so frustrating, did he say why it wasn't happening for him? What's going on with these guys.. Sending you a big hug ❤️

@2020wish

What was your discharge like

Thanks @VP91x no other AF symptoms that I can think of other than also feeling a bit sick now and again which I have been getting on and off. I don’t usually get that but did last month too so maybe it’s just a new AF symptom that I get now! So annoying that AF and pregnancy symptoms are so similar. I think I will test in a couple of days if still no sign 🤞x

@Hayleylou89 exciting ! Enjoy your check up 😘

@Wishingfornumber2 I have got exactly the same with cramps. I have been having them on and off past days and yesterday I was exhausted, and even took nap. I haven't tested anymore, I'm 13dpo today. I'm just waiting for AF to show the face.

Ladies, does anyone’s TWW go in peaks and troughs? Literally gone from super positive to feeling all deflated and down that it hasn’t happened, and inside my body there’s a sign whether it might happen or definitely hasn’t, and I don’t know which it is. It’s just hit me like a wave, the negative thoughts again.

Is it just me? I guess these days between ovu and possible implantation are the worst ones 🤷🏻‍♀️

@HopeForRainbowbaby how long is your typical cycle? I'm also 13DPO (going by my rubbish first time ever attempts at using OPKS). The wait for AF to turn up is actual agony right now. Been distracting myself with work and reading some hilarious threads on the mumsnet classics section

@MichT4 Yes, exactly what you described. I've been on an emotional rollercoaster! I've been feeling really positive and will suddenly catch myself thinking "oh it's so unlikely I will catch again this cycle" and get myself down in the dumps. But honestly, distractions are the way to go, even if it's just for a couple of hours or so. I've also been doing some light exercise and yoga daily which has helped keep nerves at bay

@mrsssk I'm glad it's not just me. And you're right - I need distracting. Luckily my Mum is coming to see me later so that's my afternoon sorted, and I have a fairly flexible working week this week - lots of walks and relaxing are in order. The hard work is done now, so just have to wait I suppose. Might as well try and make it bearable.

Any symptoms? xx

@mrsssk I'm already at max cycle length before MC. I'm not sure what to expect from cycle ( including MC in May). My cycle was 33 days after first MC but it was at 9th week, this one is after 5th week pregnancy so I would assume my cycle goes back normal faster. Do you have any period symptoms ? I'm also trying to distract myself, do things at home outside of work, walks etc

@HopeForRainbowbaby @MichT4 I had some light pink spotting over Sunday and Monday which seems to have stopped now. Got slight sore boobs today and feeling a bit bloated - sooo... could be anything really! can't really discern between AF and pg. I've needed to pee a bit more frequently but I have a feeling that's due to upping my water intake in the hot weather.

I'd assume your cycle goes back to normal quicker too, fx we both get answers soon!
Walks and visits from mums sound lovely. Hopefully the natural Vit D helps lift everyones moods as well :)
My partner is at work until 6, so once he gets home- hoping we can enjoy some of this amazing weather

@Wishingfornumber2 so annoying that you can't distinguish, everything crossed for you xx

@MichT4 definitely the TWW is full of google, symptoms and emotional dump days. Complete mess! The aim I think is to just try and stay as distracted as possible (impossible).

@mrsssk where are these threads that you speak of? I was reading some on the AIBU board and people get so wound up 🤷😂

@VP91x there is a whole section called "Mumsnet Classic": www.mumsnet.com/Talk/mumsnet_classics

My fave so far has been reality vs expectations of new purchases:
www.mumsnet.com/Talk/mumsnet_classics/3106919-Anyone-want-to-come-and-mourn-the-reality-vs-expectation-of-new-purchases-with-me

I had a stitch from laughing so much. The AIBU ones are pretty ridic too lol

Hi guys, hope you don't mind me joining. I've been following these threads for a while after MC in April at 12 weeks following a bleed at 6 and 8 weeks (scan showed heartbeat at both scans).
Been TTC ever since with no luck after falling PG first cycle last time.
I have no thyroid glad and my levels have come back really high from my last bloods so have reduced my levothyroxine meds- anyone else have thyroid issues on here?
And thank you, it's so comforting knowing that I'm not the only one obsessing over TTC!

@bxiiboo I am so sorry to hear about your loss 😔 there really are no words for how painful it is. You're definitely in the right place, this is the most supportive thread I've come accross. I have got an Underactive thyroid which was diagnosed about 11 years ago now. I take levothyroxine everyday. I had a MC in May and am now pregnant 4 weeks and 4 days. Praying that everything will be okay 😔. Sending you so much baby dust and I hope it happens soon 💕

@Hayleylou89 let us know how your app goes ☺️ that seems to have come round quickly but the days tend to drag on when you're waiting

Sending love to everyone Xxx

Thanks girls

@IWM20 @HopeForRainbowbaby @SmileyT
appt went well and i found out they now refer you to preterm labour clinic if uv had lletz and a biopsy now, which was my whole argument after Bonnie was born early...seems like they have now changed the boundries for referring to preterm labour... little too late but atleast something good has come out of something horrendous 😓 x

@VP91 i think once i hopefully get past 12 weeks time will start to fly by then and hopefully more of the covid restrictions are lifted too, ill possibly need a stitch between 12-16 weeks but wont know until im seen at preterm labour clinic. x

@renna glad to hear you havnt given up! I think the preseed is a good idea and also get that grapefruit juice down you in the next few days! I swear it helped me!! Pray u catch this cycle 🤞🏻🌈💙💗 xx

@VP91x yes test was stark white and I’ve none left now so won’t be testing again lol

@DBTJ discharge was like the lightest pink tinged this morning.. now it’s like green/yellow tinged... I actually thought it was wee at first. I still can’t feel my cervix. So annoying

I’ve no idea why AF just hasn’t showed today 2 days late now and I’m never late :( last month I was by one day but that was because I actually had a chemical that was showing positive on digitals.

@MichT4 every month I am up and down after ovulation and going back and forth: it’s emotionally exhausting. Fingers crossed for that BFP this month tho

@mrsssk hahah just went on a read some. Too funny. Think I’ll make myself a cup of tea and read them

@bxiiboo so sorry for your loss. That must of been so hard with the constant bleeding. I can’t help with the thyroid but I’m sure some lovely ladies on this board can

@Hayleylou89 glad the appointment went well and you are now referred to the preterm labour clinic. Fingers crossed you won’t be needing a avail of that tho

@2020wish not being able to feel cervix might be a good thing. Don't know about green and yellow tho
Maybe you implanted yet don't rule yourself out enjoy the beautiful weather and stay distracted

Has anyone used pre-seed or a fertilily with any success on here? I'm upping my game this cycle. DH even asked me today what CD I was on! I was totally shocked. He said he's really sad. We would be booking this week with our MC so it's hitting us hard.

@DBTJ I’ve went back over my charts to see if I missed up ovulation and ovulated late but no it seems I def ovulated on CD14/15 and I’m now cycle day 30/31 so I should 100% getting clear positive test by now? Have no idea what’s going on. I got back AF cramps on Friday night and was expecting her to show on sat but literally no cramps at all since. Boobs aren’t even tender yet. Definitely know she she’s going to come just dunno why she hasn’t
