Welcome @Freddie15VES sorry you had a chemical, worst to get some hope and it goes so quickly.

Are you tracking in any other way at all? The apps can be inaccurate. If not then dtd consistently throughout your cycle I think the advice is 😊 x

@MichT4 I definitely think this is right this time 🥰 I suppose the extra few days on your cycle would regulate themselves eventually but as you said no point in stressing about it! Haha also, remember if you ovulate tomorrow your temp rise will happen friday. But you might be quicker than that xx

[MichT4]

@VP91x OK well you'll see me here panicking on Friday if the damn temps dont shift themselves! It'll be like red bowl gate all over again

I just bought some clothes from H&M and a storage basket that OH will moan about as another 'decorative' accessory, so I'm feeling even better.

[VP91x]

@MichT4 I love buying storage baskets!! I normally buy stuff like that if my OH has pissed me off because he hates them 🤣

[Renna]

@MichT4 yeah I'm new to ava only been using it last few weeks in this cycle. I'll attach a pic . Tbh for the price of it I thought I'd tell you more like what your data means etc . I can normally really rely on femometer BBT . Last time I did temp with it I got a good dip at ovualtion then I got a dip the day before AF arrived so its was really reliable. But I probably cant look into temping too much in general as with my new puppy my sleep is broken. I was up at 11pm last night and 2am and then around 4.30am then managed to get another hour or so sleep this morning before I started work. But quite restless as I'm listening out for the dog . So I'm not sure if I can rely on either of them . The ovualtion dip I got wasnt even very good when previous months I temped I got a good dip for that. Had a very stressful few days since end of last week too with agg with step sons mum . AF due any time between today and saturday based on different apps. Just not feeling hopeful. Tough times xx
And I wont be testing until shes late lol I just cant face the BFN xxx

[chloedancer897]

@2020wish please don't lose hope yet. You still have time xx

[Renna]

This was the last time I did temping couple months ago got a good ovualtion dip and then the dip the day before AF arrived and I just knew then that AF was gonna show because of that dip before the cover line xx

[IWM20]

Thank you so much everybody. And I have to say, you have all kept me sane since my MC, I've been keeping up to date with this thread every day and it's kept me going 💕

@chloedancer897 I'm CD27 now, my cycles vary from 28 days to 30 days (usually more 30) so was expecting AF Saturday. I started bleeding from MC 21st June, got lots of EWCM on the 4th July so DTD, got the strongest OPK on the 5th July but still not as dark or darker than the control line. Then DTD 6th July and 7th July. The only thing I did different was trying to track ovulation. I have been testing so much this 2WW and all negative, last test before today was Monday and that was stark white negative. I've had a few symptoms the same this month as my MC pregnancy and some new ones. What made me test today was that I've come out in horrendous cystic type spots all over my face (hardly ever get spots) and VVV constipated 😬 sorry TMI. Even stopped taking pregnacare yesterday thinking that's what was doing it. I'm praying this one sticks 🤞

[MichT4]

@Renna ahh to see the post ovulation peak! 😂

I think it is expensive, and will come into its own after a few months of data gathering. Although I hope you don’t need it for any more than this one. I got it because I’d be rubbish at traditional temping. I need to be spoon fed!
You’ve definitely had some upheaval this month. I honestly wouldn’t even consider them too much, just use them for reference. You’ve had a lot going on, so I’d just switch off tonight, look after yourself and see the month out. And you never know....it might look different because it is different 🤞🏼

@VP91x yeah me too! It spurs me on that he hates them so much. And pillows on the bed 😂

[MichT4]

Maybe I’ll tell him he better get his best swimmers out so I have other stuff to buy. Otherwise it’s more baskets, cushions and throws 😂😂

[Renna]

@MichaT4 thanks hun:) you've made me feel better already xx I've had a stressful day too ... took puppy to the vets ...£200 down ... have insurance so can claim most of it back but its obvs a mission to do so ... plus its not really the money I just wanna make sure shes okay . Shes already finished one weeks antibiotics. She has a weird gagging cough and also think she may have a UTI so they took a urine sample today... takes after me ... I'm prone to them hahah. But she is like my little baby helping me through these tough times so just hope shes okay !! 😊 xxxx

[MichT4]

@renna oh no! How did that start? Has the vet given any indication at all? Poor pup! Hope she’s feeling much better soon. Bet she’s getting big quickly!

[Renna]

@MichT4 not sure how it started only had her 3 weeks and the weird gag cough started like a week after we got her so took her to vets and put her on antibiotics but she still has it . And like the last week shes urinated herself when napping which is strange and other signs of possible UTI so took her back today to ask about both things . So having urine test done to see if it is a UTI
Bless her xx she had all her jabs worming fleaing etc done before we got her xx

[Tink20058]

@AWM20 congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 xxx

[Freddie15VES]

@VP91x not tracking any other way, I found out about the chemical and then found out I’m at risk of redundancy so we’ve decided to carry on like normal and if it happens then it happens! We toyed with the idea of stopping trying whilst I see what happens with my job but we just thought we’d take a more relaxed approach, no OPKS or testing early etc. Way easier said than done though haha!

[VP91x]

@IWM20 I'm so happy you got your bfp and support from this group also!

@Renna I'm sorry to hear Shelby isn't feeling great. I hope the cough and UTI get sorted for her ASAP. You're getting all your practice for the sleeplessness already! It's not nice to have your pet poorly.

@Freddie15VES oh no, hopefully you don't get made redundant. That makes sense, but yes definitely way easier said than done. It always niggles away at the back of your mind. X

[MichT4]

@Renna really hope all the tests come back with a nice easy solution

@Freddie15VES sorry to hear about the job. Fingers crossed things turn out well for both things. It’s so easy to think we can distract ourselves but the reality is so different. It’s so consuming! That’s why I find it hard when people say it’ll happen if you stop thinking about it....WTAF 😂

[2020wish]

Thanks everyone. Yea think I just have to stay positive and know ok not out until Monday. I’m hoping the aspirin work. In other news all my bloods came back normal. So basically I’ve no reason as to why I keep losing the pregnancies. Suppose on the upside is that maybe nothing is wrong and next time might be the time until I get seen in the RMC. Doctor advised to still take the aspirin as many women who get normal bloods still take it and end up carrying full term... maybe their blood is boarderline clotting and just needs a bit of a push in the right direction? Who knows

Micht4 maybe so, hopefully that’s you peak tho and you will see a change in temps tomorrow

@HopeForRainbowbaby it’s so hard isn’t trying to stay positive .

I’ve got the wine lol so might have a glass or two later

@renna thanks hun. Hope ur feeling ok also... as they say we aren’t out until AF arrives. Hang in there still

Flip we are all so good at giving advice but crap at taking our own haha

[2020wish]

@chloedancer897 your my cycle buddy? How u getting on

[chloedancer897]

@IWM20 similar to me. I MC on 24th May, peaked on 5th June so I'm CD24 today. Had two negative tests already so I'm holding out until Sunday to test because the negative tests are devastating.

@2020wish we are! I tested again this morning BFN. I rarely get a positive before AF due. Even when I MC I tested on 16th (d13dpo) BFN then got the positive the next day so I just need to wait. Are you doing ok? Glad your bloods are normal x

[IWM20]

@chloedancer897 sending so much baby dust your way ❤️. I tested Monday so CD 25 and got a clear negative then too so don't lose hope xxx

[IWM20]

@chloedancer897 I've just re read my last message about dates and Ive got the month wrong on everything I said 😂😂. Im not thinking properly I'm in shock 🤣🤣.

MC started 21st May. EWCM/high OPK 4/5th June and then BFP today 🤦‍♀️

[chloedancer897]

It's ok @IWM20 I knew what you meant! I'm sure you're all over the place with excitement and I'm so so excited for you, especially after your loss. Hoping for a sticky bean for you! Keep us updated ❤️❤️❤️

[Bellabubble]

@VP91x I have had symptoms that could be pg or af 😂🙄 sore boobs, bit lightheaded, but I have also had those every week before I get af visiting since I had my mc! I still have some cm and I don’t remember having that in the days before af - but it’s not loads like other ladies that have had their bfp’s here! Af is due fri/sat/sun (as I have had 27/28 and 29 day cycles) but all have started with spotting at 26dpo - which hasn’t happenes so far today. Who knows - keeping positive 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Sorry to hear about your flashy smiley - that is super annoying!! I’m sending lh surge thoughts your way!! xx

@MichT4 yeh I’m sooooo hoping I caved and did it too early! I think I got swayed by all the bfp’s here that had happened early in the tww that I decided to give it a go - definitely wishing I had waited now though 😂 I’m blaming hubby for going out on an evening walk/chocolate run! It wouldn’t have happened if he was in!! still..the working week is going fast!

@renna - it must be the week for poorly dogs! Bella has an ear infection in both ears and a uti too!! xx

[VP91x]

@Bellabubble progesterone has alot to answer for! That's so positive that you haven't had any spotting though. Fingers crossed for you 🤞

I hope little Bella gets better soon too xx

[WellHurrahAndHuzzah]

@IWM20 Ooh massive massive congratulations to you my love! What will your due date be? Mine should be 16th Feb

I'm still lurking on these boards as I'm too scared to move over to the pregnancy board.

and to anyone who's having a rough day.
