@lucyrp that's the exact same problem we're having! Payment plan issues when everything is set up via direct debit so not sure why we keep getting payment late letters from them! Fingers crossed you don't miss the call back just keep your phone on extra loud!

I'm still wfh and wish it would be like this permanently atleast I can stay on the phone queue with British Gas whilst I'm working lol! Also I had a 121 with my manager this morning who asked if I had any good news to report (he know about my previous MC and I told him due to taking time off during a really busy period) and now with my other doctors appts he assumed and started being nosy and I ended up nearly crying- I hate work knowing I'm ttc now 😭 but on the upside glad I have a supportive manager..I don't want to go back to the office ☹️

lucyrp · 29/06/2020 13:14

@Mococo1 oh god really ?! I pay using the app on my phone or I pop into the post office in town to pay via the card but because of COVID the opening hours have changed and I only live in a small village so it's open like twice a week for 2 hours so I didn't make it on time last time I was a day late and I think that's messed it up but it's saying I owe like 6 months worth but I literally owe nothing as I'm always on time usually 😂

My manager and pretty much everyone i work witj knows I'm TTC but I don't think they know to what extent. I had to tell my manager back when I had my CP as she asked me what concerns I had with returning to work if any and I obviously had to explain that I was probably PG then I had to say I wasn't. So now everytike she checks on me she asks and she's just coming back off maternity next week ☹️ although she struggled a lot to get pregnant and went through ivf in the end so she does understand. I'm looking forward to seeing all my colleagues but not the ludicrous demands from higher up 🙄

Minster2012 · 29/06/2020 13:19

Seems there's a lot of negativity here today for a few of us & a couple of early BFNs, so bit of a 💩😖Monday feeling going round for a few ppl & with @lucyrp having gas issues (not farting & I know what you mean about other ppl joining but it's ok)
@Ltay2 @Amy00, @Busybee & @Madz123

@Amy00 the house sounds lush, & if in probate then should only just be a matter of time. I thought a lot of probate matters were going quicker? I've lost 2 grandparents in lockdown & the estates have gone through so quickly.

So, we need some fun distractions I think to perk us up.

So, what do you see? Don't say it yet....maybe later!!! 🤪

Sausage1990 · 29/06/2020 13:23

@SmileyT tha is for the updated list of everyone's test dates. My flo app Says af is due on the 1st of July but I'll only be 10dpo so I'm probably going to hang on a few days longer until at last 12-13dpo... And if af still isn't here then I'll test.

I currently don't really have any symptoms. I have some mild cramping but Ive had this every month so it's just normal for me. The last 2 days I've just felt off, like I've got a hangover. No nausea or anything just like that's feeling when you need to eat a Mcdonalds & all the junk.

I just have a feeling this isn't our month... Which is a shame because we did so much better at timing DTD this cycle and my anxiety levels have improved so my ovulation was pretty much back on track. The positive is at least is that either way, my cycles have settled back to normal 😊

@Mococo1 it's hard when work knows isn't it. Work don't know we're ttc specifically but I did have to tell my boss that was out plan for 2020 because she wanted to put me forward for training that had limited spaces and funding which I wouldn't get any use out of if I then got preggo so. I had to tell her and my other colleague has been put forward for it. My whole team suspects now which is fine in many ways because no ones mentioned it but still... I'd rather they didn't because so far we're 7 months in an had no luck... X

Mococo1 · 29/06/2020 13:25

@lucyrp I think ours is something to do with the fact that we had to change our account from 'the occupier' to our actual names as were in a new build flat so it's not registering against the right account even tho we had to set it up in order to get the direct debit going- Something daft and their fault so I've just told them to sort it out and quit bothering me! Yeah miss my colleagues but our zoom meetings suffice for now until I'm back in the office lol! It's nice to have someone understand tho and hopefully your blood tests show something where they can help! I really do hope your cycle is back to normal soon..bit worried about what mines gna be like but not bothered for this month - who knows if it will be four weeks till next week period or 6 like last time 🙄 surely humans should ovulate more than once a month my patience is wearing thin lool x

Mococo1 · 29/06/2020 13:27

@minister2012 I can defo see something in the pic trying to figure out what the other thing can be 🤔

blodyn91 · 29/06/2020 13:27

@Mococo1 I drank a few cups of rasberry tea before Ovulation but kept forgetting. I was going to suggest omega 3 for you (my PhD was all about feeding omega 3 to cows to prevent early embryo death). Even though I was doing seed cycling, I have carried on eating linseed for the omega 3, along with hemp and chia.

SmileyT · 29/06/2020 13:28

@lucyrp ahh I'm sorry you are feeling low honestly I'd feel exactly the same 😩 and as lovely as it is that we are adding new ladies to our thread all the time, I hope that some of our original ladies get their BFPs this month aswell x

@2alreadywantanother yeah was definitely a well written and executed show but especially when he completely pied her off for the debs I felt so sad x

@Minster2012 if you don't want to be sad I'd stick with Disney + I might watch Toy story tonight 😂 I guess if you can get booked in for everything with IVF then AF isn't a total bad thing?

@Juno231 updated on my list xx

@Ltay2 have you had anymore bleeding? Or has it stopped? xx

@2020mission agree with the ladies about the opks, I think femometer classes 80% as peak so you were pretty much there with the one on CD11 if you would've taken another pic it probably would've captured it as peak (sometimes I take 3 and they are all different numbers) but definitely try and take them on the same surface in the same light for consistency x

@Vil10 @Katao @Busybee143 @Clairey844 I think the start of the 2nd week is the hardest but keep your heads up you never know what is going to happen so may aswell stay positive xx

@Amy00 @Madz123 sorry about the BFNs but as you know testing early with cheapies is never likely to give conclusive results so stay positive, would love some BFPs to kick us off for July x

I'm currently 2dpo and I have the thickest sticky white CM, normally I'm creamy after ovulation, not sure if it's because I was finishing off my grapefruit juice so it's making me produce more 🧐

blodyn91 · 29/06/2020 13:31

@Minster2012 I can make out two different animals so far...and the start of something else 😆

Ltay2 · 29/06/2020 13:32

@Minster2012 I can see one thing too, tried to make myself see it another way but can't 😂

@SmileyT I had one little dot this morning but nothing since! Not felt any cramps since either but they were only mild this morning.

I'm so glad I'm back in the office this TWW. The first time round in April was torture at home knowing I was only metres away from the tests and being quiet with work so more time to think about it! Being properly back at work is a good distraction in that sense.

Ltay2 · 29/06/2020 13:33

@Minster2012 Ooo I can see 2 things now!

lucyrp · 29/06/2020 13:35

@Minster2012 me and my gas issues 🤣🤣 hopefully it will be our month. X

@Mococo1 its a bloody nightmare. It was only last night I wrote a huge lengthy email to hastings insurance for MIL as they've sent her letters the last three months stating that her direct debit hasn't gone out when it has and then they cancelled the insurance and had the cheek to charge her a cancellation fee and now they're sending hers to the debt collectors too even tho she's been paying. She's also had to fork out for a new insurance because they cancelled on her! So I had to include the PDFs of her bank statements as proof. These companies eh. My patience is 100% wearing thin I predicted at the very latest yesterday my AF would show alas literally nothing has happened. My life is a shambles 😂

lucyrp · 29/06/2020 13:37

@SmileyT I really hope some of us OGs get our chance l! I might still be hanging on for dear life at the end of July with no AF 🤣😂x

Minster2012 · 29/06/2020 13:42

Ha ha I could only see one thing for ages, DH saw something else straight away, I think the way I've cropped it makes it easier!

I might look into omega 3 too @Blodyn91 how can humans take it? Can you buy capsules or something?

@smileyT I'm in a bit of a film mood, I feel pretty weird & queasy currently so not doing exercise this lunch & pretty darn tempted to eat chocolate & just watching crap (should be cleaning) no if AF turns up it should be fine we just have to Hope whenever it comes that the clinic can fit us in, they even sent a letter out saying "I've made XXXX aware that there are currently c30 couples on the list waiting for embryo transfers so it will be a case of what appointments are available when the timing is right for her cycle" so we just have to hope it falls ok

@Ltay2 totally get that BEING IN the office would be better for you. Even I'm tempted to test & I know I've not ovulated 😂🤣

So what are these chocolate bars then 🤔

SmileyT · 29/06/2020 13:54

@Ltay2 yeah I totally agree, I've actually been pretty quiet today but the last few weeks have been manic so not had time between 9 and 5 to think about ttc 🙌🏾

@lucyrp I think it'll come on Wednesday no idea why but I do x

OP posts:
SmileyT · 29/06/2020 13:57

@Minster2012

1 bounty
2 toffee crisp
8 kitkat
10 aero
20 crunchie

Sorry got distracted by chocolate but really hope that the timing is right and the sooner the better, your little surfer dude needs a playmate to keep him busy when his parents are banging in the shower 😛

OP posts:
lucyrp · 29/06/2020 13:58

@SmileyT il be CD53 by then 🤣😭x

@Minster2012 that is a lot harder than I thought number 20 is a crunchie,number 10 aero mint, number 8 is a Kit Kat or a time out, number 14 is Milky Way and 4+13 are snickers and topic or picnic 🧐🤔x

Amy00 · 29/06/2020 13:59

@Mococo1 I was a bit concerned about low progesterone/high oestrogen with my last cycle too, as I didn't have super high LP temperatures and got some spotting, and LP was a bit short as got AF on 12dpo. So this month I have been seed cycling and been taking both B6 and angus castus supplements. I ended up ovulating 5 days earlier (great as I historically had long cycles around 33 days) and my LP temps have been nice and high and no spotting so far 👍 so something is doing the job!!

@Minster2012 Chocolate 😍
1 - bounty
2 - toffee crisp
3 - mars
4 - picnic
8 - Kit Kat chunky

12 - echo? Is that still a chocolate? 😂
13 - snickers
14 - Milky Way
15 - fudge
17 - dairy milk caramel 🤔
18 - Turkish delight
20 - crunchie

That took forever having to keep flicking back and forth but thank you for the distraction for a few minutes! Sure one of them must be a double decker but can't think which one.. maybe 19.

Skip86 · 29/06/2020 14:08

Ooh fun!

  1. Bounty
  2. Kit Kat chunky
  3. Mars
  4. Picnic (or maybe 19?)
  5. Kit Kat bar
  6. Milk choc
10. Mint aero 11. Boost 13. Snickers 14. Milky Way 17. Curly Whirley 18. Turkish delight 20. Picnic

That's all I got, and I'm confident on about 5 of them 😂

Minster2012 · 29/06/2020 14:15

@Amy00 that chart looks good I think to my untrained eye!

@smileyT 4/5 that's good! It's not a toffee crisp ❎

@Ltay2 2 isn't a toffee crisp, ❎4 not a picnic, ❎and 12 not an echo- ❎what's an echo?? Is that a thing 🤔

I'm watching a channel 4 programme called "sex in lockdown" and it's pretty funny, this is like our threads ladies, the amount of sales of sex toys in lockdown gone mental @lucyrp I blame you & few of the rest of us 😂

Ltay2 · 29/06/2020 14:17

@Minster2012 Ah no I didn't do too well 😂 this is an echo so clearly was remembering wrong!
