@Northernsoul90 really hope you get a static smug face soon! Your One steps look exactly how mine looked a couple of weeks ago - never did see a peak though. Hope you manage to get lots of BD in over the next few days.

welcome to all the new ladies on the thread, sorry you've found yourselves here but I hope you get BFPs soon x

@VP91x have you had any more spotting? Strange your UTI symptoms have disappeared too, I'm normally in agony from them! Only a few more days till you can test, when are you planning on doing a test?

@MichT4 that is a definite peak! I'm slightly jel of how quickly your body has sorted itself out but it hopefully means you can catch again quickly :) totally get what you mean about reactions when people say you're a finance director. I also working in finance (technical accounting risk) at a big 4 and I practically can see eyes glazing over when I say what I do for work lol

@Rainbowhope11 so sorry to hear you reacted badly to the medication! Sorry if I missed it but how many CD are you on post mc? I'm in a similar situation of no period post MC CD55 now. Got my gynae appointment in a weeks time eeek! I hope you have better luck with your private Ob-gyn xxx

Northernsoul90 · 21/07/2020 13:23

@MrsK21 Thank you! Me too I hope it doesn't just flash at me for weeks... doing opks can be so stressful were you just using the one step? I bet you can't wait to get some tests done. I'm really hoping to see a peak I'm on cd43 now 🤪

MichT4 · 21/07/2020 13:26

@MrsK21 😂 yep, and generally just get an 'oh right....' but in a way that says 'you must be full' 😂

Oh don't be jel, I'm sure this is far from over in the confusion department. I'll do one tomorrow and it'll be stark white! Just going to DTD when we want to and see what happens. Would be lovely to catch quickly but I hoped for the same last time and it made me more stressed when it didn't happen, so I'm trying to keep an open mind. Pretty sure that'll last a month tops, but I'm just trying to keep a PMA that this will happen when it's meant to, and more importantly, when it's going to stick! x

MichT4 · 21/07/2020 13:27

@MrsK21 not full, dull! 😂🤓

fafi · 21/07/2020 13:38

@Northernsoul90 omg those memes are so funny!

@Lollol86 ugh they are so useless at communicating sometimes! I got a call after my MC from the midwife regarding my booking appointment and the hospital reassured me they'd cancel it!

@Hayleylou89 aww wonderful pic! So exciting xx

2020wish · 21/07/2020 13:39

@Hayleylou89 love the photo!!

@MichT4 yay!! That is deffo a peak and hopefully ovulation!!

@VP91x hoping it’s a BFP and not a uti! Roll on the weekend for testing!!

MrsK21 · 21/07/2020 13:51

@MichT4 an open mind is the way to go as looking into every little thing is so exhausting mentally and physically. Really hope it's a proper peak for you though!
and yeah, I'm pretty sure every person who has met me in passing and found out I'm an accountant thinks I'm the dullest person going lol but my work is actually so interesting! Before my current role, I was in industry like yourself and loved that too.

@Northernsoul90 I was only doing cheapo One Steps once / twice a day because I had no idea how long the cycle would be - turns out my hunch was right. Using CBs daily would've bankrupted me by now lol but I do have 2 packs of CBs ready to go when my cycle has returned as the cheapies are stressful on their own. Yeah I'm really hoping next Monday rolls around quickly so I have an idea of what's going on, even if the tests aren't done that day itself, it'll be nice to hear "this is normal / this is not normal" from an actual specialist.
I was howling at your memes earlier, some were a bit too close to home haha

@Hayleylou89 your scan photos make my heart melt every time, hope you are doing well xxx

NadJade · 21/07/2020 13:53

Thankyou everyone! I'm still in shock. Sending baby dust to everyone🥰 I'm hoping this bean sticks 🤞🏼 xx

MichT4 · 21/07/2020 13:57

@2020wish thank you, I hope this is it. Will be nice to not have to wait, and also to know I did ovulate 🤞🏼
How are you today?

@MrsK21 I was at an accountancy firm before this, in audit, forensics and corporate finance. I loved it, especially CF, but industry is just more for me - can get into it rather than seeing bits and bobs and then moving on.
I hope it's a peak too, last time I was tracking so had no idea so it's just nice to have some awareness.
I'm also holding onto my CB pack for next month, as I would have been crying about the amount of sticks I might have used up. I bought them, but was then too scared to use them. I'll bring them out on a 'special occasion' 😂

2020wish · 21/07/2020 13:59

@MichT4 fingers crossed for u!! Really rooting it is and that’s you catch quick! I’m ok was so tired last night. Went to bed at 10pm and slept u til 1pm today!! Was having pains yesterday on my feet all day busy so was so worried I would start to see my lines get lighter. But they are stronger again today so I’m sitting all day and going to ring my doctor here and get signed off again til I’m at least 16 weeks

MichT4 · 21/07/2020 14:07

@2020wish wow! That is a long sleep! I am a little bit jealous about that!
Glad you are going to get signed off, it should take some pressure off you and relieve some anxiety. Look after yourself, I'm sure everything will be perfect x

Northernsoul90 · 21/07/2020 14:11

@MichT4 @MrsK21 I had told myself I wasn't using cb ones until I knew where I was with my cycle for the same reasons as you but I find the deciphering of lines and fluctuations really stressful so I caved in and started using them... the cost is just crazy though 😭 ttc is going to bankrupt me before long!

@MrsK21 I bet you can't wait for some clarity, so many of us seem to be in limbo about things for different reasons. I really hope you get some answers!

@2020wish I'm glad you got sorted with work 😊 take some time for yourself and try to relax a little now xx

MichT4 · 21/07/2020 14:23

@Northernsoul90 it looks like you timed it perfectly too. I could just foresee me getting through an entire pack in one cycle 😂

Stayinghopeful92x · 21/07/2020 14:32

@Renna any sign of af yet ?. X

@VP91x am doing OK thanks think I got all the upset out my system last week 😂. Just caught up there and seen ur post I think its looking really promising for u 🤞my sister had uti symptoms every pregnancy and she has 5 (fertile bitch) 😂. And with spotting its looking promising 😁excited for u to test. X

Congrats on any bfp I have missed ur ur all keeping well xx

Renna · 21/07/2020 14:44

@Stayinghopeful92x nope no sign of AF and cervix still feels closed I think. So strange .5 days late now . This has never happened to me before. Of course I've been looking on mumsnet of ladies getting BFPs like a week or 2 after AF late ... dont think I'll be one of these lucky ones but gives me a little hope other than sitting here desperate for AF to just turn up and letting that get me down. I may call docs if no AF by end of week. Or I've also seen that some people can just skip an Af . I mean never happend to me ... but guess It can happen so i dunno whether to start tracking opks too soon ...? 🤷‍♀️ xx how you getting on x

2020wish · 21/07/2020 14:52

@MichT4 just waiting on doctor ringing me back atm. So fingers crossed he signs me off. You going to try anything different after ovulation this cycle to help implantation?

@Northernsoul90 thank you. Ttc is so expensive right? Lol but with cb digital there is no guessing your peak so can be worth it if your cycles aren’t cooperating with cheapies.

@Renna so strange. I’m hoping you have ovulated later than u thought and implantation has happened a little later and a BFP is coming ur way. I’ve read about people getting them so late after af being late so ur still in with a chance until she shows. Are u taking anything that could cause af to be late?

Stayinghopeful92x · 21/07/2020 14:53

@Renna exactly the same as u. Checked mine also the last few days was quite high now its low but closed still so hoping maybe the next day or 2. Isn't it a nightmare the days are so long. Ohh I hope not ttc is bad enough without missing a full period 😕 xx

MichT4 · 21/07/2020 15:00

@2020wish I don't think so. I have the fax Fluor and haven't got anything else. I'd like to try aspirin but I'm worried in case it's not recommended for me. Do you recommend anything? x

MichT4 · 21/07/2020 15:01

@2020wish calc! This autocorrect is getting on my nerves today 😂

2020wish · 21/07/2020 15:12

@MichT4 I’m taking cal flour, pom juice, extra bit D, b6 complex, omega 3, co enzyme q10 and progesterone cream and aspirin. But I think for implantation it’s best having the cal four, pom juice and vit d at least. The rest I have been taking for over three months now and I believe they help with egg quality. X

Renna · 21/07/2020 15:14

@2020wish no dont think theres anything I'm taking that can affect it . I was taking Coq10 for like a month then I gave up and left it but I know some people in here take that and doesnt affect cycles . And I stopped taking it a few weeks ago. As I was getting overwhelmed with everything and decided not to track / do too much other than take folic acid xx

Renna · 21/07/2020 15:19

@2020wish just see in your message you take CoQ10 so it's not affected your cycle obviously xx I'm kinda undecided whether to start taking all these supplements again or just leave it. I see a lot of ladies In here are successful taking these supplements so I should probs carry on taking them and stick to it. But I go through phases of thinking I'll just relax and not take all these additional supplements as I ddint take them before and I got pg but then I'm like it clearly helps other ladies get pg xx

Renna · 21/07/2020 15:20

@2020wish and also yeah worried if any of them affect my cycle x

2020wish · 21/07/2020 15:21

@renna some of the supplements, esp the ones that help with egg quality can take 3 months to take effect so this has been my third months.. so I’m hoping this will help my sticky bean. I’d advise to maybe keep taking them and giving them 3 months to take effect x

MichT4 · 21/07/2020 15:37

@2020wish thank you. How much Vit D is recommended, do you know? There's some in my conception vitamin but probably not a lot
