Anyone missing just let me know your next testing date xx

Did you crack and go for tests before the year mark @Katao or were you right at the point of booking and then boom pregnant? I'm shitting it that something is wrong with us...although I full well know that it just takes this long for some ppl. My mum took a year for my sister and she was 26 (I'm 34), my other sister and I weren't even planned so we were both quick! So I always flit between stressing and being relaxed about it.

Yep you looked lovely @Minster2012 you had brown long hair. Am I right?

How long have you been ttc @Franklydear?

Ha @Ltay2 this is me! I do this! I've already added EPO to mine since last month. God knows what I'm gonna add this time round. I'm gonna rattle soon 😂

@juno231 your LP is fine don't stress lovely 💕

@Franklydear totally know what you mean, so hoping you see neither AF not BFN 🙌🏻

@2alreadywamtanother oooo what plans you got? Sounds like a great idea

Mmmmm coffee & toasty @Lucyrp with an early finish sounds like a perfect working day 😂

You are ALL negative for no reason. I'm on team WIN for you all on super Saturday /weekend @Ltay2 @katao @Franklydear @Newbie0818 (though I know this might be a tough one if spotting 😟) @vil10 @Notyetamumbuttrying & @Sausage1990, Queen 🐝are you in too @SmileyT ???

We can smash 25% ladies 🦄🐣

I'm wiping brown here & had hella cramping yesterday so I guess starting AF properly tomorrow

@Vil10 I am at home now it's great 🤣

@Ltay2 horrible feeling isn't it!! And really I have no reason to feel like I'm out! Hahaha I'm going to do that too, I keep saying I might do bbt next cycle but I think I'll get too obsessed!

@Minster2012 everyone needs a bit of your positivity in their lives!!! Thankyou!! Booo to your af, can piss off!

@notyetamumbuttrying Least it's not just me, OH keeps saying 'do you really need to take all these things' Yes, yes I do 😂

@Vil10 think I am just going crazy 😂 my symptoms have not changed in 3 days and 2 days ago I was thinking I must be pregnant and now I'm thinking it must mean AF is on the way, totally irrational 😂 every time I say I will get back into BBT and I wish I could stick to it but my sleep is so rubbish in the early hours that I can't do it justice. Maybe I'll try again next cycle anyway 🤷🏼‍♀️🙈

@Minster2012 I agree your positivity is amazing, manage to make me laugh every day! Please don't leave us for the IVF boards we need you to bring the fun 🥳

@notyetamumbuttrying we've been trying since November, problem is I am 42, nearly 43, so after the year is up that will be it, I am pushing it on being to old to have a kid again, I have a D's 10

@Ltay2 we need to stop being so hard on ourselves don't we! We'll end up driving ourselves mad!!

@Minster2012 @blodyn91 thank you my lovelies

@Ltay2 I add something new each cycle too and have the same fear lol. I feel EPO really helped my CM this cycle though! My next consideration is checking how much b6 is in the pregnacare pills or if i need to up it separately too to boost my progesterone.

@Minster2012 my plan is to get very drunk 😂😂 nice cocktails, homemade of course.

Although I'll be disappointed if this doesn't happen, it's our own fault for leaving it so long. I'm very grateful and lucky to have 2 already so I won't complain.
My son is t1 diabetic and I remember the day we were in way to hospital, I goes to DH I'm def not having anymore. Now I'm mad for 1. But what's meant to be will be. We are having plenty of fun trying. Give it 6/8 months and if not by then, that's fair enough.
But here, I have to be positive. We DTD enough to get you all preggers this month 😂😂 so hes happy out

@Vil10 I know! I've convinced myself I'm out already just from the bleeding but now I'm more concerned that I started spotting at 5DPO and that's a worry in itself 🙈 just need to try and chill I think!

@Juno231 Oh I haven't heard of B6 and it's benefits! I take various supplements so will have to have a check how much is in them. I'm definitely going to try EPO, I struggled with OPK tests this time from drinking excessive amounts of water to try and boost CM which lead to me not holding urine long enough and it being really diluted, so if I can dial the water down a bit and still get good levels of CM I'll be happy.

@notyetamumbuttrying yes we said we would give it one more cycle and then head to the doctors and then we fell 😃 it felt like a very long year at the time and very frustrating but I really think now that we got the child that was meant for us and well worth the wait.

Thanks @Minster2012 🥰🥰

@Katao yeah my temps have dropped so no sustained rise which I'm assuming means no ovulation, also CM has seriously dried up 🤷🏾‍♀️ I think temping is the only way to really confirm ovulation has taken place apart from bloods/scan but I could be wrong x

@Minster2012 yeah I totally understand not wanting to put your life on hold but also understand if women have one shot at IVF they want to throw everything including the kitchen sink at it. Good job on the new purchase hopefully it looks good a bit bigger. I'm strangely feeling very relaxed and positive that it will happen at some point for me x

@Cocoblue22 I keep saying it but anything out of the ordinary is a good sign 🤞

@Newbie0818 I still have everything crossed for you x

@blodyn91 OH is always commenting how I'm always cold and my temps kinda agree with him my normal pre ov temps are around 36.1 or below and post ov highest ive got to is 36.51 I think 🤔

@Juno231 just remember that AF will sometimes start at different times of the day and ovulation is just an estimate so may actually be a couple of hours out on LP rather than even a full day x

@lucyrp love a short day, if you are getting paid for the full thing then enjoy it 🙌🏾

@Vil10 I love that you've said 'you're not out' followed by you feel out - it's funny how we have so much positivity for everyone else but not ourselves 😂

@LV1987 stick in there it will be here before you know it x

Sorry started writing this about 2hrs ago before a meeting so may have replied to stuff that's seriously passed but just ignore it 😝

We will be a positive bus when we get some BFPs this weekend 🥳 🥳 we go about 4 days without getting one and we all lose hope 😂 xx

Thank you @SmileyT 😘

Well I've got CB OPKs and evening primrose oil lined up in my amazon basket ready for if/when AF arrives 😂

You are so right @SmileyT, bit of a bfp drought at the moment and we all think that's it, it won't happen. Roll on July 🧚‍♀️

So I had no symptoms yet really but now 9dpo and i am unbelievably bloated and have very mild cramps/twinges. That would be nicly timed to be implantation related but also my lp tends to be 12 days so could equally be af gearing up. None the wiser basically but at least something to ponder 😂

Achey boobs, the start of cramps and a bit of nausea... cd21, usual cycle 25, some times only 23... And work decision about special leave still not out, so I only know I am not expected this week, I am literally in limbo
IVF us still TTC so I expect everyone of you to stay put.

@SmileyT hahaha I didn't even realise I did that!! You're so right though, we support each other so much on this thread I love it!! I have faith in all of you!!X

@Katao Thats exactly what I have had! Along with some random spotting. My LP is pretty steady at 14 days so just waiting to see what happens and trying not to stress a long the way 🙈

Hey all, have just enjoyed catching up on all your posts from the last few days - especially liked the chocolate ones 😋 @Minster2012 x

Just a little update - AF arrived for me last night but I am excited to start a new cycle and try some tips that I have picked from you ladies on this thread 😊

So this was my first full cycle since having the coil out/MMC completed and was 28 days long. Based on OPKs and temping I ovulated on CD17 which means my LP was only 12 days which I think is on the shorter side of normal? Should I be concerned?

I didnt even make my turn on the July bus testing, AF has just arrived early. I thought it would be soon given I've eaten just about everything in the cupboard over the past 24hours so while im disappointed it didn't come as a surprise.

On a good note tho that means I still get to slide in with testing at the end of July prob around 29th and I get to have some drinks on Friday for my birthday.......silver linings! But the 29th will be a BFP it has to be, I refuse to go onto cycle 12 of trying! So that wee egg that's waiting to jump out mid July had better be cooking nicely and ready to join up with a damn good sperm they both have their orders! 😂

@SweetDreams92 glad that you're feeling excited and ready for your next cycle!! That's the way to be! I think they say anything from 11-17 days is normal and most woman have a 12-14 day ones, anything less than 10 days is considered short! So I wouldn't worry if I was you x

@SmileyT I am indeed being paid for it 🤪 I've spent the afternoon with my friend which has been nice! Got to go in to work again tomorrow probbalt for a maximum of an hour for a team meeting 😂so ridiculous x

@lucyrp that sounds like an exciting day not 😴 x

@Minster2012 I agree it's been hard work with a toddler non stop our parents usually have him over once a month for a sleepover which gives us some much needed couple time! But it seems forever since we had that I can't decide which restaurant we need to visit first 🤣 x

@DKDK123 @SweetDreams92 sorry to her af arrived ☹️ on the plus side nice new fresh shiny cycle for you ladies! And drinks at the weekend sound lovely too x

See what you ladies mean about getting hold of ass fruit juice none in the shops yesterday not that it's the right time for it but was just having a nosey for if I need it next time. Did we decide if pink ass fruit juice is the same as original ass fruit juice? Also does it have to be the juice of ass fruit or can it be tinned ass fruit? X
