Not added anyone that I don’t have dates for and haven’t added the naughty girls at the back but you know who you are 😉

Morning ladies, @Minster we are going to become party girls at this rate.... I don't remember who mentioned, DH asked last night when is af due? Cd 16 yet, he said I have been really quiet about it this month, I must have really relax then, sadly our fw was a bit of a non event, plenty of action but not many swimmers in the right place, amazed at @lucyrp sports effort, I couldn't have done that even at your age, during period too

@2alreadywantanother yes I do, I thought that too.
@Juno231 they've been like that since I miscarried, never used to be that way. I've just been eating my seeds to help with a healthy cycle, I do plenty of exercise and try and keep hydrated. I'm not sure what else I can do? I also only want to change one thing at a time, I'm open to advice

@Busybee143 on the bright side you're 10 dpo this time and could still get your BFP! The only other things I can think of is Vit B6, Vit C and Agnus Castus for LP lengthening. Might be worth just seeing what happens though as it's longer this month so might be improving on its own x

@Juno231
That's very true, if I have a no show on af I'll test in 2 days. I am hoping my length has got longer so I guess I'm in a win win situation pregnancy or no pregnancy. I will look into that thank you, do you know how much is recommended?

@Juno231 I ovulate on CD17 usually too that's what it was yesterday for me! Don't worry though I'm sure you'll ovulate within the next few days and joining us in the TWW!

@Ltay2 I just googled it too and got both sides, and I thought the same thing, it's nice and can't harm so might as well! How many days are you going to drink it for? I know pineapple core is just for 5 days but not sure on pomegranate!

@Busybee143 sorry about bfn, it's shit isn't it! But onwards and upwards to the next cycle!

Aw sorry about the bfn @Busybee143 but early yet. @Minster2012 yayfor af!!! Glad you are making progress. Good luck with getting your ivf journey started. We will all be cheering you along 🥰
Any cm experts here? I had a peak opk yesterday afternoon and evening and a slightly lighter one last night , cd8. I had ewcm from days cd6-cd8 and now cd9 have lots of lotiony cm. Anyone care to guess if I ovulated or had a false peak?

Sorry about your bfn @Busybee143, hope you are doing ok this morning X

@Katao no advice I'm afraid but following as I've found cm hard to read this cycle. I haven't done opks so can't compare unfortunately, but I had ewcm cd12-13, then creamy cd 14-15, and now this morning on cd16 I'm back to ewcm. Will be interested to hear how you get on. When do you usually ovulate?

Anyone else finding the more they pay attention to their body, the more it plays tricks?

Girls, when checking cm are u going by wipes or getting up there ?

@Quercus3 usually ovulate around cd14 or 15 but I had a 42day cycle last and probably no ovulation so think thst has confused things. I don't usually pay too much attention cm because everytime I Google it it seems like anycan mean anything 😂 I do keep an eye out for ewcm though knowing that is the good stuff! @2alreadywantanother I just go by wipes, I don't go hunting

@2alreadywantanother Even thought about red food colouring on a couple of tampons and chuck them in the bin. He wont dare question me then 😂😂
and regarding cm- im none the wiser, I can't find anything much up there 😩
@Newbie0818 have you ovulated yet? must be around the same time as all us who are ending our FW
@Katao unfortunately only bbt can confirm Ovulation, just keep dtd 😏

@katao me either but wondered how I'm not noticing as much as some lol

@SmileyT I definitely did have fun at the pub🤣 gar too much fun in fact. You know it's bad when someone comes back from the bar with a round of sambucca shots 🤢

@Minster2012 omg yes! Period twins! 🥳🥳Thankfully my belly is a lot better today at the moment. Maybe it was all the alcohol last night 😂

@Cocoblue22 that's all so exciting!! I've never ridden that far before either 😂x

@LBee2020 @Minster2012 this is a bus I am happy to catch 🤩

@2alreadywantanother @Busybee143 I read yesterday on my Flo app that you should always count any days with spotting before your actual af because if your full amount of days of af is more than 7 then that's not normal and that's when you should see a doctor about it

@Franklydear thank you! It was such a lovely day aswell! Was nice to be doing something to take my mind off af pains and I also find that if I can actually get myself out and exercise it relieves my cramps!

@blodyn91 I like your creativity 😂 he won't suspect a thing!

@Katao ah I see! Yeah I imagine this cycle might be a bit unpredictable then?
@2alreadywantanother I've done both which probably explains the differences actually ha, only ever notice ewcm on tissue. Think I'm going to bite the bullet and track bbt and use opks for the first time next month, I don't like all this uncertainty!

Also just realised AF/BFP will be due around my birthday. My birthday is on 17th and af will be due 18-20th 😬😬 IF I have a normal cycle ever again😂

@Quercus3 oh my god yeah bird poo you are right it was the dog shit that did it! I just didn't want to be outshined by @lucyrp's Aunt Flo I think of wang her to flipping piss off without me 🤨😝

@Madz123 you DEF need to keep humping girl I agree with others

@LV1987 Thank you 🥰😂

On no @Busybee143 that's rubbish so sorry sending hugs xxx

@lucyrp you can do sambucca shots on your period. I'm in pieces! Headache sickness, cramps. Hate being a woman right now urgghhhh but pleased you are partying with Flo💃🏼

I was the one who suggested pomegranate juice. I was actually recommended it by IVF clinic as potential to help womb lining thicken as mine was on thin side, they said it's full of anti oxidants & good for heart & blood stream so it's a good agent to help increase blood flow when combined with healthy exercise it can help to assist red blood cells. I read up and it's also recommended for liver so I thought why not. My lining did increase & I got BFP so yeah I drink a 3/4 glass organic juice a day anyway.

So I called the IVF clinic & now I wait to day 21 & take northisterone again & await paperwork & a zoom call to sort out but now it means DH & I are strictly CONDOMS ON 🤨😬so we are now NON TTC to TTC 🤣practising safe sex (knew the preseed would come in handy) and maybe put a prefertilised embryo back in around 6 weeks who knows so could be in TWW in 6 weeks??? How's that for back of the bus bitch????🚌🤦🏼‍♀️

Thanks for the advice everyone! Better DTD again tonight then 😴 (definitely gonna be a pump and dump (😂) situation as I really can't be bothered after 2 13 hour shifts 😴🙈)

@Minster2012 I feel like super woman right now not gonna lie. Did a 31 mile bike ride yesterday followed by sambucca shots and a bedtime of 2am to then be up with DS early this morning💪🏼😂 it was actually the first time I had met my best friends new boyfriend so the sambucca definitely broke the ice 🤣 he was lovely too and just as weird as me and OH 😂

Omg @Minster2012 that's so exciting I just cried a little 😂😂 frigging progesterone!!! But still, it's pretty cool that you could be in your TWW in 6 weeks I'm so happy!!!!!

@Vil10 I'll get some tomorrow and probably just drink it until it's all gone so a few days, I'll just get one carton! Finishing off my pineapple tonight at 5DPO, read conflicting advice on that too. Some say 5, some 6 and some 7DPO to stop so will go with 5 to be on the safe side!

@Katao I get creamy/lotion CM for a day or two after ovulation if that helps!

@LV1987 you are very calm for 8/9dpo 🧘‍♀️ I'm not going to symptom spot for you but really hope it's your month and you can't get pissed at the open bar x

@lucyrp at least you're not in work today for the hangover, I can't remember the last time I had Sambuca but it was probably not in this decade - I'm so old 😂😂😂

@Busybee143 sorry it was a BFN but great news that LP is lengthening or it'll be a late BFP 🙌🏾 x

@Minster2012 ahh I'm so excited for 8weeks time when you get that BFP 🥰🥰

Also loving all you ladies hitting that TWW... get that pom juice in, pineapple, some ground sesame seeds on your food and definitely no orgasms 👀

@Minster2012 Wow that's amazing news!!! Fingers crossed for the whole process! I don't remember, do you have a frozen embryo already?

Haha thank you @SmileyT... I do feel rather zen this time around. I think it's because I did all my stressing in my nearly month long build up to ovulation 😂

@Minster2012 So exciting that you're getting moving with everything now!! 💕

@Minster2012 ahhh so exciting! So funny using condoms ttNc 😂 we did that last month when we were trying to sway so used condoms at the not favourable times which turned out to be all pointless anyway when my cycle went to shit🙄😂
Thanks @Ltay2 I think that's how it has gone for me before too but I'm awful, I don't properly keep track of these things. @blodyn91 I know what you mean about temping and the logical part of me knows it would be smart to do but I'm sooo not a morning person so don't think I would manage to do it accurately. I'm like a sulky teenager, twisting and turning and throwing the blanket over my head 😂

Ok ladies, I need advice. So I assumed I'd ovulated in Monday as I had ewcm for a couple days before and a big temp dip that day, and since my temps have risen. My cervix is still really high and when I checked just now I had a massive jelly like glob I'd clear cm (tmi sorry!). I thought I'd do an opk just to check and it's very dark?! What do you think, have I ovulated yet or will I ovulate soon? I've attached my chart so far and the opk. Thanks!
