@mumof23188 I ovulated on day 17, cycle length usually 29, so keep testing 😊

@2020mission My plan with that would be to get OH to shave my bikini line for me 😂😂 not sure if he is keen though

Cocoblue22 · 05/07/2020 16:07

@vil10 the flaps can be painful! But more the tufty bit at the top is the worst! But it's so much better than shaving I find just having a good bikini wax quite far in and low from the top leaving a patch of triangle is just right! I have no idea about those tablets x

@2020mission it grows back differently to shaving I normally have it done once a month and don't notice if ever particularly looking like it needs doing as such! No you can have it done all the way up to giving birth if you want I think but your pain threshold will be lower I've heard. Once I couldn't see or reach it it didn't bother! I think I maybe got DH to give it a trim for me right before due date but only to tidy it up before the birth. Then afterward it was a long time before I'd go back to waxing but my birth was bad so that's why! I imagine some women get waxed after their 6 week check x

2020mission · 05/07/2020 16:17

That's interesting to hear you can remove hair down there right before labour. I was sure I read you can't, but maybe it was just shaving and not waxing - incase you get any cuts/ingrown hairs from the shave that could irritate the area. I would think it would be easier to have the area all clear so they can see better if they need to cut/stitch anything?

2alreadywantanother · 05/07/2020 16:20

@Franklydear I know where u are coming from. Totally expecting a bfn as will only be 11dpo. And until af arrives I dont think I'll get much sleep 😂😂 awake early every day lately, eager to see some bfp on the group.
My stomach is dodgy today but that could be the few drinks last night 🙈 no more than normal. Feel starved all day no matter what I eat. Had some ovarie twinges earlier too. I just want to know lol just have ic tests so may not be any good. Didnt buy a proper test yet. Will if I get a squinter

Franklydear · 05/07/2020 16:33

Dh doesn't want me to test in the morning when he is in a rush to get to work, if, and is a big if, I was to test today, how long do you think I need to hold so is not a totally diluted waste?

SarahTTC2020 · 05/07/2020 16:35

I tried waxing my bikini line years ago, screamed when I ripped it off 🤣 no way could I get my flaps done!
@Cocoblue22 the tufty bit 🤣 I know exactly which bit you mean!

Cocoblue22 · 05/07/2020 16:38

@2020mission I don't think it matters too much whether it's hairy or not they can see everything clearly anyway! I'm sure my friend said she was waxing people right before their due date! I would be scared it would induce labour! X

@SarahTTC2020 haha glad you can get a good visual from my description 🤣 x

Franklydear · 05/07/2020 16:52

😁DH is experiencing tww ansiety for the first time, he just has to know, feels good
Not testing today, I go to the loo like 3 times an hour

lucyrp · 05/07/2020 16:56

@SmileyT its going to be even longer for us and I'm just so fed up of repeating the same routes for walking or running and I'm no good at home workouts I just don't have the space and when I do it outside it's not the same 😂 I'm guessing yoj meant waxing and not shaving 🤣👀x

@2020mission how do you shave every few days?!!! Are you super woman ?! I get shaving as soon as I shave never mind two days later ?! Also in regards to being pregnant I'm pretty sure I have up trimming the bush when I got to about 6 months pregnant 🙈😂 I couldn't see it and I definitely didn't care that the midwives could either 😂

2020mission · 05/07/2020 17:11

@Franklydear I've held in for 2 hours for ovulation tests and it's still came out looking diluted. If I was you I'd hold as long as possible and try not to drink much water while holding. It always feels wrong to do that but you definitely don't want to test diluted urine and end up with a negative when you are pregnant.

2020mission · 05/07/2020 17:12

@lucyrp I shave pretty much every day, it was a few days when my husband said it was fuzzy 😆 it grows back so fast!

Minster2012 · 05/07/2020 17:12

@Franklydear it's meant to be a 4 hour hold I think? How sensitive are your ICs? Google them & see maybe? Frequent urination is a symptom!

Franklydear · 05/07/2020 17:24

I have a 10 UL fr, and a digital how many weeks one, I'll wait till the morning, no way in hell I can hold 4 hours, maybe one...
He'll have to suffer and wait till the morning...

Newbie0818 · 05/07/2020 17:27

@KateColx exactly :)

@notyetamumbuttrying good plan! My hot water bottle is my saviour.

@Franklydear totally get the fear, I'm always very reluctant. You got this!

Countingup · 05/07/2020 17:31

Thank you everyone for your lovely wishes. ❣

I really believed I was out this month. I hardly had symptoms.

It's still early but my chicken, meat and chilli cravings may have been a sign.

Goodluck to everyone, hoping you get your bfp xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/07/2020 17:35

@Newbie0818 love a hot water!
@Countingup I think I'll know if I don't have symptoms either. Every month I get bad pms so there's no point symptom spotting. I have in my head that if I don't have any, it's got to be a good thing, here's hoping anyway!
@Franklydear good luck for tomorrow, you can do it!

Countingup · 05/07/2020 17:51

@notyetamumbuttrying actually you're right no symptoms is a symptom. 🙂 I just meant, I had none of the usual pregnancy symptoms like sore breast, headaches, bloating, wind. I was expecting my breast to be very sore.

Every month I would have a different symptom and swear my time had come only to be disappointed. One month I had very bad headaches which I never get. It was crazy and so confusing. I just 🙏🏼 for a healthy pregnancy and baby.

Love to you all xxx

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/07/2020 18:31

Best of luck for a healthy, happy pregnancy @Countingup! 🍀

Catherinettc · 05/07/2020 19:09

Well its my birthday today and tbh cba with it at all 🤣🤣

Feel really lethargic today 😪

Might have a nice bubble bath to cheer myself up 🤷‍♀️

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/07/2020 19:17

Happy birthday @Catherinettc! Enjoy that bath and eat some cake 🎂

2alreadywantanother · 05/07/2020 19:23

Happy birthday @Catherinettc

mumof23188 · 05/07/2020 19:33

@2020mission yeah I only started testing CD14 as the OPK’s were late arriving.

@SmileyT I’m going to assume I have aswell seeing as I had EWCM on CD9 and 10.

@blodyn91 I will carry on for a few days. They’re so cheap can just buy more in time for next cycle 😊

@notyetamumbuttrying hope you’ve had a lovely chilled day. Nothing beats your own bed does it ☺️

Happy birthday 🥳 @Catherinettc

SmileyT · 05/07/2020 19:39

@lucyrp yeah I meant waxing 🤪 and I actually bought specialised gym flooring for outside so I could train and moved weights from my mums but still cba even when the weather is nice 😩

@mumof23188 yeah I normally get EWCM a few days before Peak opk but think everyone is different. Are you still having sex just in case it comes a bit later? x

Happy Birthday @Catherinettc 🥳

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/07/2020 19:49

@mumof23188 I have thanks and you're right! Now watching the umbrella academy, it's on Netflix. Only one ep in but I like it! It's kinda superhero, fantasy stuff but modern if you like that sort of thing. Dh doesn't so he keeps drifting in and out of it lol! What you up to?

Franklydear · 05/07/2020 19:50

Happy birthday @catherinettc
I went for an hour walk in the country side, hardly a couple of cyclists there, lovely, my reward apple pie with custard
Took a test in the end, bfn, but probably didn't hold long enough, or af is coming... I have another fr for tomorrow morning and if positive will take the digital a few days later, if negative, you know, we start the game again in a week
