@chloedancer897 thanks so much and totally agree. I haven’t even had my first AF since MC yet so we said not to get bogged down by this right now but if it happens and we get ovulation right then why not which is why I took an OPS this morning and we DTD last night. Not sure I’m feeling all that hot for this evening haha xx

@Firevie play it by ear. Don't force it. Honestly, we did that last month and I remember getting really sad thinking if we made a baby that way it was a bit depressing because it felt like work! Listen to your body and do what works for you both. Try not to get bogged down by peaks and fertile windows and just spend a bit of time together and enjoy each other's company x

@Rb486 Yes maybe get an early detection or wait a couple of days to retest if you possibly can... I feel for you being on a ward all day! I hope you have chance to enjoy some evening sun tonight xx

@Firevie I would be annoyed at that as well and I'm completely of the same opinion as @MichT4 in that yes I'm not drinking much now (id say once a month if that - twice if we have stuff planned) but I'm not putting my entire life on hold while ttc. Until I have a bfp I'm just going to continue to enjoy a couple of glasses of wine or whatever when I feel like it. Life's too short, enjoy a glass of fizz ☺️.

So I had those pains on and off all day yesterday I'd say they were quite sharp and would liken them to ovulation cramps. I wanted to dtd just in case I actually hadn't ovulated the first time and ovulated yesterday but DH feel asleep knackered from work. Last time we dtd was Tuesday so I hope I did ovulate first time round and the pains were just something else! I should be 8dpo today 🤞🏼

@chloedancer897 @Northernsoul90 thank you ladies! You’re right....taking it bit by bit. I will Test again this afternoon to confirm peak and then just see what the eve brings xx

@Northernsoul90 implantation pain maybe?🤞🤞

Girls I just don’t know what to think. Just come off the phone with the doctor and basically they are going to do nothing. She said that because the cycles are regular (26-31 days) and the main bleeding lasts five days, and because we can rule out pregnancy and stds there’s no problem. She said because I have a 20 month old and had a recent miscarriage and am 30 hormones are probably all over the place and to just wait longer for them to settle. She said to throw away the opk tests and call back in three months if this spotting continues. I’m just absolutely crying and don’t even feel I can take much more of this. I feel the spotting is a concern but the doctor said it’s normal. I don’t feel I can wait another three cycles of this. Feeling so low.

@Mommybear05 oh it's so frustrating and we want to know what's happening now. Making you wait another 3 months just seems so cruel. You know your own body and know when something isn't quite right. Sending big hugs xx

How is everyone today? It is so hot, we need to dtd today it's going to be a sweaty session 🥵🥵 This morning the tickets for the polar express train in Devon went on sale, I qued in a virtual que for an hour and 40 minutes but managed to get tickets woop, super excited for that xx

Just did my OPK for today, and I think it's peak. It's come up as peak on femometer and 0.89, then 1.12 a few mins later when the background was totally white (was still a bit pink in the first one). @Lollol86 funny you should say that, I just asked OH if we should DTD now or later and the look he gave said it all. Apparently we should wait until the sun is lower in the sky 😂😂

@Mommybear05 so sorry your gp wasn't helpful. You have to be so lucky to get one who understands. What do you think you'll do? Hopefully it is just things settling and next month you won't get so much spotting, I do think it can be normal but I know it's frustrating when it isn't for you. I hope you can find something to cheer you up in the sunshine today xx

@MichT4 good choice although it's still going to be gross later too 🤣🤣 the things we do xx

@MichT4 no cheering up today I’m afraid- I was supposed to be going out with my husband, son and mother in law. She just pulled up as I came off the phone to the gp. I just told them to go without me. I am a very private person and don’t want to discuss this in front of her. You know sometimes when you just feel like you can’t face the day? This ttc process is getting to me I just feel like I don’t want to see people, meet friends etc. I just want to shut the world out. The problem is I don’t even know what is normal for me as I was on the pill for so long. Everything I read is telling me to spot at this time is unusual. If I wait three months it will take me to what should have been my due date. I just feel like I can’t take much more. Was ttc so long before mc. The road feels so long. Sorry to be a downer.

@Rb486 I deffo saw a line and tbh I didn't have to squint or zoom in.

Warning TMI post. Sorry for the post but I'm trying to understand cervical mucus before I've never tracked this before. I'm feeling a bit wetter down there today and I had a feel for my cervix, if it's what I've been feeling the last few days I can't find it so thinking it may have gone higher up? Anyway this cm came out, is this too creamy to be egg white? I'm really not sure what it should looks like xx

Should say as I've never tracked it before x

@Lollol86 I'd say that's egg white for sure. So definitely a sweaty one for you too later 🍆🍆💦💦

@Mommybear05 I totally understand. Sending lots of love to you and we are here all day if you need us xx

@MichT4 yes!!! So what do I record that as on Femometer? If I put egg white it says I'm ovulating xx

@MichT4 thank you ❤️ I’ve called the surgery back and have an appointment for Tuesday with a second opinion. If another gp says the same thing then I’ll just have to accept I need to wait xx

@Lollol86 wow that’s some impressive cm! Get busy haha 🍆💦

@Mommybear05 ha ha thank you. How long to people generally take to ovulate after that? I'm still getting a blank circle on cb. Hoping it won't be too much longer xx

@Mommybear05 definitely a good idea getting a second opinion. Maybe play on the fact it's really effecting you're mental health, which is true but say you are struggling to see past this at the moment xx

@Mommybear05 I'm so glad you got an appointment. Make sure you have a list of questions.

@Lollol86 I don't know how long to be honest, I assume you'll ovulate in the next few days. Are you doing cheapie OPKs? It might happen for a few days first. Just get busy anyway 😂🍆💦

@MichT4 yea I'm doing cheapies, going to do one at 2.30, ive only not had a drink for 2 hours and it's killing me, can't leave it any longer today. Hubby is on his way home from work but think it will have to wait until later, I'm sweating in every inch of my body so definitely not wanting the D just yet 😂😂

@Lollol86 send us a pic please! It's far to hot for shenanigans. Honestly, the sweat between my boobs is unreal 🥵

@MichT4 I will do, although the last few days have been no more than about 4% around this time so I'm not expecting much. It's disgusting, I have quite big boobs too and underneath is gross 🤣🤣

@Lollol86 it’s normally a few days after I get cm I ovulate I reckon. X
