@candycrush2298 in my defence I thought they picked up at 10...theyre 25 ones when I looked at the info afterwards 🙈🙈 saving my frers for my proper test!

candycrush2298 · 15/08/2020 20:49

@Welliedays even with a 10miu testing this early would require a very concentrated pee since you said you didnt hold yours no test would have really had much luck 😂😂😂

@Welliedays honestly I’d tell them if they’d be supportive. They won’t be. My mum and her sisters are gossip central they just spend hours talking about everyone. The whole extended family know that my cousins husband has cheated on her multiple times and continues to cheat on her even now. I personally don’t want the whole of my extended family in my business. My closest friends know and have been supportive through out.

Sorry about the BFN. But hopefully that’s just because it’s not FMU. When is AF due?

@candycrush2298 omg that’s amazing. Hope that’s a sign the soy is giving you good healthy eggs 😁. Whoo May baby 👶

candycrush2298 · 15/08/2020 20:53

@Elakiya at least you have a strong support system with your friends thats all that matters!! I completely understand a gossiping family, not my family per se but a friend of mine has a family that thrive on the negative to gossip about so totally can see where you coming from.

And I know right lets hope its busy cooking a strong egg🤞🤞🤞🤞

@candycrush2298 woohoo amazing what a hair do can do for a woman. Glad you are feeling brand new.

Ooooh wonder what the ewcm was! Random. I really hope the soy works for you.

Sorry its so hard to keep up with all the messages now im back at work. I find myself about 5 pages behind by the time im home haha!!

No i didn't test. Im such a pee'er i go to the loo loads (probably as i drink alot of water) kind of gets ingrained into you working in a gym lol. I'll test in the morning and let you know, I'll be 12 or 13dpo tomorrow. My temp went up again this morning. Just waiting for that huge nose dive 😭

Are you feeling postive this month trying the soy?

Welliedays · 15/08/2020 20:56

@elakiya ahh I'm so pleased you have friends who are so supportive. Familys are just the worst sometimes aren't they. I'd just tell them the more they ask the less keen you are to have kids. That might make them shut up!

@candycrush2298 I knew it would be negative.. There's no way it could be positive really 😂 I'm such an idiot! @elakiya AF is due on Thursday at the latest... I think Wednesday would be more likely though as my average days went up to 27 days after my chemical last month (normally 26 days. I have been logging AF for over 2.5 years now though so it is pretty accurate on the whole)

candycrush2298 · 15/08/2020 21:01

@Kaybobx thats OK I understand going back to work changes things lol!!!

As for the pee I completely hear you hate doing the pee hold 😂😂😂 better to wait for tomorrow anyway. How are you feeling you think AF is going to come?

I hope your temps just stay high. As long they stay high you still safe!! So just hoping it doesn't drop lol!!

Yeah my hair has made me feel so pretty again whahahaha!!!

I know I guess I will see what my cm looks like over the coming days lol. I am excited that I am using the soy and I am feeling really positive but like with everything confidence not so much because of how long we been going at it and how many strange things I have tried lol!! Such as legs in the air, menstrual cups etc lol!!! So I would say I am feeling really upbeat and commited to try again because of the soy. I was feeling really over it like I didn't even feel like testing opks, the monitor anything I was just over it all and then @Elakiya shined a bright light and lifted my spirits lol. But confident that I will conceive - no lol!!

@Welliedays lol you're not an idiot youre just impatient like the rest of us 😂😂😂

Welliedays · 15/08/2020 21:08

@kaybobx going back to work definitely changes everything. I can safely say if we don't get a sticky one this month then we won't be dtd every night for a week next month hahahahahah. I really hope your ten stays up.. No nose diving allowed!!

@candycrush2298 with your positivity your time has to be soon, I cannot wait for the day you get a positive.. Although I know you won't believe it! Hopefully the soy has done the trick for you

Kaybobx · 15/08/2020 21:10

@candycrush2298 being back at work is brutal. Ive been up since 5.30am and literally off to bed now haha! Rock and roll Saturday night ay. Im off tomorrow though which is exciting.

I literally have no AF symptoms just loads of watery creamy CM and sore nipples. I usually have bad cramping by now which makes me think im going to be late again. I 100% won't be on by Tuesday.

Im so excited for you, if you're feeling super pretty and brand new again I'm sure hubby thinks this too and thats a whole lot of sexual tension to make a baby haha!! Praying this soy is working miracles.

@Elakiya awe well done for cheering @candycrush2298 up. You do make my days too with the things you come out with haha!! Your a good en ❤

candycrush2298 · 15/08/2020 21:12

@Welliedays really hoping you have a sticky bean this cycle.

And you are totally right I would so not believe the tests 😂😂😂😂 we will know in about 3 weeks if soy has done anything wish we could fast forward lol!!

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 15/08/2020 21:14

@Welliedays Agreed!! Ive BD so much, if it doesn't work this cycle I'm back to the every other day (if that) again haha!! Sod doing that again if it doesn't work. Thank you though, hopefully the temp stays up.

candycrush2298 · 15/08/2020 21:18

@Kaybobx omg 05:30 on a Saturday is 100% brutality!!! It should be against the law to be up that early 😂😂😂😂😂 oooh nice you got anything planned??

Watery cm is that normal for you at this point in your cycle? The lack of symptoms and watery cm definitely sounds promising.
And if 17dpo has become your new normal wouldn't Friday/Saturday be more likely for your start date?

OP posts:
Elakiya · 15/08/2020 21:48

I have just binge watched air crash investigations to cheer myself up I also watched some true crime documentaries. (I know I am complete weirdo!).

@candycrush2298 I merely copied and pasted a post from another thread. You would have eventually found it yourself. I really think this ewcm is a very good sign and am super excited for you :D So based on EWCM you should be ovulating tomorrow or Monday?

@Kaybobx Aww thanks lol! We do chat a lot on this thread. We're nearly on the part 2 (this would be like our 4th thread though).
I think part of the desperation of wanting to be pregnant straight away is so I don't have to BD! I'm sick of it already hahaha.
Your symptoms sound good though. Fingers crossed for that BFP. Me on the other hand, I think AF might arrive tomorrow with the way I am lol!

NamechangeTTC · 15/08/2020 22:05

Just catching up.

Went to see family today. I’ve missed them tonnes.

I’m knackered. Still sore on the right side. Not testing again for a bit as I can’t keep wasting money.

I’m pretty sure AF will arrive on Thursday.

I just want a baby!

candycrush2298 · 15/08/2020 23:00

@Elakiya lol my hubby loves air crash investigation and I love crime shows so you not too much of a weirdo🤭

Yeah but I think you just pasted at the perfect time like I was feeling so down, I forgot to buy the raspberry tea before AF started which left with nothing to try this cycle and so I was deflated. And you stepped in with your back up plan and it was perfect timing because I was CD3 and it wasn't something I had to wait on Amazon delivering it was just all such perfect timing it lifted my spirits up.

As for the EWCM I cant really rely on it as to when I will peak/ovulate because we BD so often I cant really say if its left over semen or if its truly ewcm. Just have to see but based on the low opks and low monitor I think its still a few days away.

Based on normal cycles of ovulating between day 12-14 (Wednesday-Friday) lets hope its still a few days away so that the egg matures nicely 😀 👌

candycrush2298 · 15/08/2020 23:05

@NamechangeTTC thats lovely glad you got to spend some time with them.

Yeah best to cool off on the testing, using cheap strips are the best for poas everyday as then you not blowing all your money. Since yours are FRERs its best to keep them for a few more days since you are still quite early.

Hun I assure every single one of us on this thread wants a baby so we understand your frustration. After 2 years of trying and 32 unsuccessful cycles I can honestly say I know what you mean. I want a baby in my belly too😭

OP posts:
Welliedays · 16/08/2020 07:55

I TESTED!!

But please don't say congrats yet, I'm too scared it will go wrong again! I only tested because last night I convinced myself I was making up symptoms (especially after that stupid negative) so I wanted to so I could mentally prepare for AF arriving. Still not going to count her out, but at least I know I'm not making up my symptoms!

@namechanngettc @candycrush2298 it's so hard isn't it (says me who has seemingly, possibly managed it again, so I feel a fraud saying that), but there's one thing I do know.. You girls all deserve baby's in your bellies more than anyone and if you got baby's based on your kindness, humour and general positivity and enthusiasm you'd all have quads. Even if this one sticks I'm afraid I'm sticking around on this chat until you get your BFPs!!

Looking at my photo it looked more grey... I'm sure it's pink on real life 🤨

Elakiya · 16/08/2020 08:10

@Welliedays I’m going to say congrats 😁. The line is very clear and pink from where I am standing.

Welliedays · 16/08/2020 08:18

@elakiya it's a better line than the one I had on the day AF was due last time (which resulted in my chemical) so I'm trying to take that as a positive that it will stick as AF isn't due until Thursday, so I'm a good few days earlier... Although I never tested earlier last time, so maybe it would have been a better line before 🤷🏼‍♀️ I think I won't test again until AF due date on Thursday as then it should be a lot clearer line if all is going well (if I don't end up bleeding before that).

snapple21 · 16/08/2020 08:20

Negative again for me today 10po.
I'm starting to plan next cycle. I'm wondering if my body is actually releasing an egg. I've not had any severe ov pain which I actually was getting a few months back so I could really easily tell when I ovulated. So I might try the soy isoflavenes.

snapple21 · 16/08/2020 08:20

Welliedays your message just loaded - that is a fantastic line!!

Welliedays · 16/08/2020 08:31

@snapple21 sorry to here you're still BFN. If you want to give the soy a try I could post you the ones I bought if you pm me your address? I'm obviously managing to fertilise my eggs and it's the sticking that is the problem, so even if this one doesn't stick I'm not sure soy will help me anyway? They're unopened and I only bought them earlier this week so you're welcome to them!

candycrush2298 · 16/08/2020 09:25

@Welliedays yeah I am not listening to you sorry, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! and if it does end up going to the wrong way and being a chemical we will be here for you. But for now!!! You have your BFP and your little bean so I am going to pray its a sticky one for you xx

And thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it but I think @Elakiya is the one who would appreciate quads, me not so much 😂😂😂😂

@snapple21 so sorry about your BFN, I know you are temping but on flo it doesn't give you a coverline, when you look at the whole cycle does it have an obvious shift in temps? Because if it does then you are ovulating which I think you are since you possibly fertilised an egg last cycle. Thinking of you xx
