Minster2012 · 05/08/2020 21:42

OMG so I have a small break from MN & I miss @blodyn91 getting your BFP?? & @lucyrp you are ovulating?!! AMAZING!! I'm so happy for you both congratulations @blodyn91, soooo happy for your last month TTC so now you need your barn right & you are proper grand designs?? Barn, baby deadlines?? What does it mean for holiday??

& @lucyrp how are you then? Over there ovulating are you, get on him!!

So we've been watching normal people & I just don't get it. It's so slow, even the sex can't keep my interest. I'm just so meh.

Life is meh meh meh

2020mission · 05/08/2020 21:50

@Minster2012 I found normal people really slow going too. Also frustrating that they just don't communicate properly 😆

lucyrp · 05/08/2020 21:53

@Ltay2 do you think CB would be okay to do this evening ???

@2alreadywantanother oh no sorry to hear about your granny. Sending love x

@Minster2012 I wondered where you'd been!!! How are you ?? I'm not really sure if I'm ovulating il have to do another IC opk now when I go to the loo but I might try my CB but would that work ??

2alreadywantanother · 05/08/2020 21:59

Thanks all.
Missed u @minster2012. Hope all good with u

Florence13 · 05/08/2020 21:59

@2alreadywantanother great news about your son but so sorry to hear about your gran x

Minster2012 · 05/08/2020 22:02

@lucyrp I've been lurking but trying to get my head around our IVF schedule, which likely means I'm being held in suspense now til the end of September & they were really dismissive & curt with me yesterday when I was feeling really emotional so I just kinda tapped out really. Plus I've also got lots on & my granny's funeral on Friday after both her & my step grandad, her husband of over 30 years died in the past 2 weeks so on lockdown all 3 of my remaining grandparents have now passed away. Not unexpected but a generation gone & it's tough.

I'm just not very upbeat currently & didn't want to drag ppl down xx

@2020mission DH said "Jesus he didn't have to act much did he, says 3 lines every episode & gets his kit off 😂"

Adds to the depressive mood I think

KateColx · 05/08/2020 23:01

@notyetamumbuttrying aw sorry no BFP but a little pleased you haven't all left me yet 😂 I'm okay thanks lovely, I've missed being on here but it's definitely helping me not to obsess so much 😅 start of a new cycle and no tracking or anything so I'm excited to see how it goes. How are you? Where are you upto? X

@Minster2012 sorry to hear you're having a bad time, and about your grandparents, sending lots of love 💕 were you hoping the IVF would be quicker? Maybe it's a blessing in disguise that it'll give you a little time now whilst everything is going on but completely understand it won't feel like that 😔 hope you feel better soon xx

Catherinettc · 05/08/2020 23:20

@Minster2012 aw I've missed u and ur chat! U always make me laugh xx

I'm around 3dpo according to app but not a clue tbh. Just winging it till af comes 😁

Not feeling like its my month tbh but im usually upbeat about that lol xx

glowingtwig · 06/08/2020 06:02

Haven't really said much on this thread really but... got this this morning!

Now trying not to stress about the line not being as dark as it was at this stage with my dd.

Pregnancy makes me a nervous wreck. Can everyone cross their fingers for me that it's a sticky, healthy one xx

Juno231 · 06/08/2020 06:49

@glowingtwig congrats!! Thanks for keeping our Aug streak going 😁. How many cycles was this for you and any pearls of wisdom for us?

@minster2012 I'm so sorry to hear about your grandparents, that's really tough. I hope the ivf wait isn't too hard on you with all those hormones in you in the meantime.

Tested just now at 11DPO with a FRER - another BFN. Cycle 8 it is...

lucyrp · 06/08/2020 07:02

Day 7 of the flashing smiley 🙄😫

@Minster2012 oh no sorry to hear about Everutning you're going through ☹️ big hugs to you ❤️

MrsCrumbtious · 06/08/2020 07:10

Huge congrats @glowingtwig that’s a very BFP! 🎉🥂🎊

Sorry about the BFN @Juno231 😔 Really hope the next cycle is the golden one for you ❤️

Currently 4dpo, no symptoms yet apart from a bit of bloating but suspect that’s down to the extra lockdown timber I’ve been carrying 😂🙈. Just ordered some middle of the road priced cheapy tests. Been reading so many stories here that the FRER tests sometimes give false positives 😦

glowingtwig · 06/08/2020 07:15

@Juno231 cycle 2 and I didn't expect it at all as I'm still breastfeeding dd so much.

Am not getting my hopes up too high though because August 2 years ago I had an early mc at 5 weeks and I'm 39 now. Also I compared my lines to DD's positive test and these aren't as dark - although might be because I ovulated two days later this time... who knows. I'm going to try and keep chilled about it because last time I was in such a state.

However... every time we've got a BFP we've dtd every day through FW and then a few days after, with one day gap. A bit like an enthusiastic version of SMEP.

Sending lots of baby dust to everyone wanting their BFP xx

Ltay2 · 06/08/2020 07:37

@lucyrp So sorry for the late response I've been soooo tired so went to bed at 9!! 👵🏻 But yeah you can test twice a day once you get flashing if you want to! I know some people said they got their static in an evening.

@Minster2012 Glad to have you back! Was wondering where you had got to!

@KateColx Don't know if you saw as there's been sooo many messages since but I got my BFP at the weekend too! Been thinking about you, how have you been with your relaxed cycle?

2alreadywantanother · 06/08/2020 07:48

@minster2012 so sorry for your loss huni. That's tough going there.

Katao · 06/08/2020 07:52

@KateColx @Minster2012 nice to see you girls back. Glad the break has helped you relax @katecolx. Sorry you are having a tough time of it @Minster2012, don't stay away though just because you think you are being a downer, if you need the break yourself fine but otherwise we are here for the highs and the lows x
Congratulations @glowingtwig. Sorry you are feeling nervous. Give your dd a hug and remind yourself you brought her into the world successfully 😉
@Juno231 so sorry about the bfn and the 7th smilie @lucyrp
What brand did you buy @MrsCrumbtious?

Minster2012 · 06/08/2020 08:09

Congratulations @glowingtwig that's awesome! 🥰💕I understand the nerves but that's a great strong line & everything has to start from this point

Thanks for the wishes ladies, don't worry I'm back. Pulled myself together this morning. Put my big girl pants on...literally. Had a cry last night & Brushed off DH & his hard on advances at THE MOST inappropriate crying moment. Honestly, men???!!

So I'm back.

@lucyrp so they are laughing at you now eh?!! Are you getting your bloods done this month as well? if in doubt DTD! But it may be that after your CP your hormones are still messed 😕I totally didn't realise what a fuck up it can be miscarriage and CP.

Anyone want an assfruit juice smoothie breakfast?? I figured after my womb lining was an issue for IVF transfer last time & put us back in not going to let that happen this time. So I've done Pilates, & here's my breakfast. Yum??!!

And DS & I are off to Bridlington beach today with MIL who has hired a beach hut for the week

How is he gonna give you the goods?? August 🚌 Bitches
Juno231 · 06/08/2020 08:16

@minster2012 omg right - my OH wants me the most when I'm crying!

KateColx · 06/08/2020 08:20

@Ltay2 oh my god! No I hadn't seen, congratulations lovely!!! 💕 go away for a week or so and all the BFPs happen 🥰 so pleased for you! How are you feeling? The new relaxed cycle is only just starting so I'll see how I go 😂 but I'm kinda looking forward to not worrying about testing etc., let's hope that lasts haha x

Florence13 · 06/08/2020 08:35

@glowingtwig congratulations!!

@Minster2012 so sorry to hear your having such a tough time sending virtual hugs your way.

@Juno231 sorry about the BFN today

Minster2012 · 06/08/2020 08:44

@Juno231 his line "I know you are upset but maybe this would cheer you up" no. Just no. 😂🤣

Florence13 · 06/08/2020 08:50

@Minster2012 and @Juno231 my hubby is the same I guess it’s a man thing they think will fix anything 😂
