@MrsK21 what sort of training do you like to do? xx

@MichT4 have a look back at the pic @chloedancer897 put of her peak and you'll be able to distinguish it better. It was really obvious there.

Haha, the first thing I do on a sunny or warm day is put a wash on because it'll dry quickly 😂

Yeah Milo is all fine and dandy, had his injections so he's feeling a bit sorry for himself today! Xx

@MrsK21 I hope it wouldn't affect your right ovary. I found out something fascinating recently that our fallopian tubes apparently aren't attached to our ovaries. They latch onto the one that is going to pop an egg out, something along those lines. Xx

@Northernsoul90 would you be able to do a hold now until 7/8? Or wee now and then hold? Xx

@MichT4 thank you, I can't believe that isn't a peak 🤦🏼‍♀️ surely it can't go any darker 🤣🤣 xx

@VP91x Thank you, I think I'll start testing tomorrow about 3 as I have lunch around 12 and always have a drink then too, that way I can go at least 2 hours with no drink, she says that on a day that's going to be bloody boiling 🥵 xx

@VP91x we ordered off AO a slimline integrated one for £189 by Electra. No idea if it’s good but reviews look good and as longs it fits in my cupboard and saves me a never ending task I am happy lol. Hate cooking dinner and then wondering who’s going to give in first and wash the pots 😂

I have a retractable washing line too 😂 a grey minky one to match the garden lol.

@MrsK21 good thinking on trying to just wait and see what consultant says. Hopefully you will get somewhere now. Wondering if it’s interfering with your cycles which is why it’s so long this time?

@Northernsoul90 I think my minds playing games with me cause I’ve felt little things too. Too early for me though I think. Also I had a little EWCM a couple of mornings back that was thicker and cloudy like you say. I just thought it might left over stuff with sperm trapped in it lol 😆

@VP91x yes that’s right about the tubes, I saw it on a YouTube video about the conception process, the tube has ‘finger’ like structures at the end that sweep against the ovary and collect the egg out I think 💭

@VP91x so sorry to hear about coco 😢. Do you think you will get another one?

@Hayleylou89 hope it goes ok for you on fri. So glad to hear you were seen quickly. Lovely scan photos!

@Mommybear05 have everything crossed for you that it’s a bfp this month!

I think I’m now in my tww and roughly about 5/6 dpo. The last couple of days I have had quite a few sharp twinges mainly in the right side of my stomach along with a weird sensation in my lower stomach. I can’t really describe it, like a heavy feeling. Trying not to symptom spot as I know it could be anything but haven’t really had it before so we will see. Hoping to test end of next week if I get that far without AF arriving!

@Lollol86 if I'm honest, I much prefer the CB digital test. It tells it like it is. Attached is a pic of my OPKs, I definitely got a peak CD13 and had my static smiley that day too. Weirdly though I didn't see the line getting darker or indicating a high result before my peak. It just appeared. I tried to do the tests at 12,4 and 8 if I could. Not recommended to do FMU with them. But use FMU with CB (if that makes sense!) @MichT4 attached the pic for you also x

@VP91x Yes I could, I might do that then! Oh my goodness I never realised that about the Fallopian tubes! How strange xx

@Pugprincess it's hard isn't it when you don't really know what's going on I can't decide what to trust 😂

@VP91x I know!! Time has flown by since AF showed up! Yup I'm taking the sachets as well. I don't mind it because it makes me drink more water haha! You're most welcome, hope it helps!

@MichT4 right?! I was like, how rude of the Provera to not work 😂🤣 it is quite expensive, I just bought a months supply which is 4 or 5 strips and it's $29 😳 I will let you know if it's any good.

@VP91x I read that about fallopian tubes too! It's bonkers and so clever how our bodies can adapt if say you lose a tube. Hopefully not something that will affect the right ovary as the cyst looks like it's just on the left one. They said the right one looked in really good shape, so worst case scenario, it's slightly reducing the fertility from just one

@Pugprincess yes you're right, it could be interfering by preventing an egg releasing but at the same time, my hormones (I think progesterone) may be off and that's not triggering the end of the cycle and starting AF. It's why I need the doctor to look at bloods and scan results together to piece it all together.

@MichT4 Nothing too difficult! I like doing the Les Mills classes, especially body pump but that's lower weights and higher reps. I would love to do powerlifting but at the mo I have the upper body strength of a kitten lol are you thinking of going back to a physical gym anytime soon? I'm quite happy with sticking to home workouts for now, my weight set will take a max of 40kg which is plenty challenging for me for now!

Just want to say thank you to all you lovely ladies for being such a great support. Normally stuff like this would stress me out hugely but I think knowing I've got others opinions, reassurances and hand holds is making this all a lot easier :)

@chloedancer897 that's crazy how much it can change in 1 day. I agree I definitely prefer fb. I do use fmu with them xx

@Lollol86 I know! I could have missed my peak if I didn't test at the right time. It happened and disappeared so quickly. I'm going to stop OPKs after this month because I always seem to get my peak on CD13 but I do enjoy POAS!lol

@Wishingfornumber2 @Northernsoul90 seems we’re all similar dpo, I’ve just had a slightly light AF type cramp but I know I had light ones leading up to my BFP last time too. Fingers crossed something is happening for us all 🤞🏻❤️

@chloedancer897 so
Did you do a cb in the evening? Xx

@Wishingfornumber2 here’s hoping you get your bfp too. Yes I had exact sam thing on my right side too. It’s hard not to symptom spot isn’t it? So I had more spotting today but this time RED ☹️. So that’s brown cd22, pink cd24 and red cd25. If I don’t get my bfp I want to see my gp because I really don’t think I should be spotting cd 22 each month ☹️ Really fed up to see the red spotting today but I won’t give up hope u til I see af. 10 dpo today. Very tempted to test but I feel it’s too early x

@Lollol86 no, just once a day. That's why I continued with the OPKs, to see when the peak started and finished

@chloedancer897 ahhh ok I see what you mean xx

Yes @Pugprincess, when are you going to test?
@Mommybear05 if you do go to your gp hope you can get some answers. But fingers crossed you don’t have to! When will you test if AF doesn’t show?

@Wishingfornumber2 I did one tonight just for the lols, far far to early lol. Obvs neg.
When should I start testing? When’s the earliest x

Gosh @chloedancer897 you didn't get much warning do you! But good to see it's a definite peak - darker than the control line!

I just did another one and it's recorded as high and 0.83 so looks like they are going up. I mean to me it looks the same as the one earlier but I took 3 pictures and they all said the same.

@MrsK21 no I won't go back to an actual gym yet. We have everything we need here. My friend came over at 5.15 to train with me and as expected, we've not long finished. Too much chatting!! Got the session done though.
Maybe do some online sessions? Or you can probably do quite a lot with 40kg. What is it? A bar, or kettle bell/dumbbells etc? xx

@Pugprincess I think from about 10dpo. But some women get a bfp earlier and some later. X

Hi ladies,

So I’m 10dpo and today at work my boobs started hurting. Yesterday I had a massive melt down because I really feel like it’s not my month. But after the boobs today I stupidly decided to come home and do a little test as I have the amazon cheapies. I’m desperate to see something but after looking these don’t always have good reviews. I’ll do another one in the morning and so on until AF is meant to arrive. I’ll put myself through that torture 😂 I’m going to be terrible every god damn month!! @Mommybear05 you should test, just get it out your system. I feel like either way I wanna know now!! 😭 in my next life I’m coming back male! Xx

@Rb486 I think I can see something. Tried inverting it and think there is a slight line. Best test tomorrow morning.

@2020wish yeah I’m not going to get my hopes up and I’d already set myself up for failure this month. Lol! I’ll run by a supermarket tomorrow and get some first response or something if I still see a little something on it in the morning. Thank you 😘
