Just came on to officially confirm that AF has arrived and the progesterone has clearly dropped as I am feeling much better lol

Welliedays · 17/08/2020 10:39

@elakiya sorry to hear the bitch has turned up, but at least that means the tww is over and it's good to hear you're feeling better! I'm sure you'd do anything to be in my position (as long as it sticks), but while they don't tell you how hard it is to conceive and get a sticky bean, they also don't tell you how rubbish it makes you feel when it happens 😂 I'm feeling slightly more confident that this one will stick as I think I feel worse than I did last time. I'm so tired, I keep feeling sick on an evening, I'm still having weird vivid dreams, weeing more than I thought was possible, waking up early, and my nipples... They look super odd, even my husband commented that they have changed and he isn't one for noticing such things ahaha

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 10:43

@Elakiya nooooooooo!!! So sorry at least you are very good at predicting your own cycles you knew that today you would start. You calculated it a week ago. So at least you know your body but honestly man was so hopeful one of us would be having an April baby. The positives are you are feeling better you going to take a cycle off testing with opks and less stress. Just follow smep you seem to be pretty good at predicting your body changes so would say you probably can follow smep pretty easily by listening to your body. Wishing you all the luck and baby dust in the world this cycle onto a May baby!!! Yeah!!!

I’m jealous of the long luteul phases lol my past 5 have been 9 days
11-17 days is normal and anything under that then the fertilised egg can’t implant and stay because your lining starts breaking down and progesterone drops before the egg can settle in x

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 11:36

@Boc86 thank you for explaining I am useless at remembering all the importance of a long luteal phase only know that its important lol!! Hope you OK hun xx

I’m hungry as fuck and feel sick today. No more blood on wiping. Definitely none of the symptoms @Welliedays has though which are the real ones!

Welliedays · 17/08/2020 11:53

I'm hungry too @namechangettc! I'm eating chocolate like it's going out of fashion. I tend to feel sick on an evening of if I don't eat often enough, but otherwise I'm OK. Remember everyone's symptoms are different though and some people are completely symptomless right through. I feel different this time to my chemical too so I know it varies every time as well!

NamechangeTTC · 17/08/2020 12:06

Using a google image to be less offensive

It’s like this on a smaller scale. I’m probably kidding myself as it was a lot less than this.

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 12:39

@NamechangeTTC hopefully its implantation hun. Keep us updated xx

Glad to hear this feels different to your chemical @Welliedays lets hope its a sticky bean xx

NamechangeTTC · 17/08/2020 12:41

It’s a bit late for implantation unfortunately. No more since. I’m not in the mood for work today and I don’t finish till after 930. Argh.

Welliedays · 17/08/2020 13:41

When was the last blood you wiped @namechangettc? Mine was less than the top right photo, but relatively similar colour the second spotting. The first spotting was a smaller amount than the photo too and more pinky coloured

Welliedays · 17/08/2020 13:43

Has anyone tried drinking purdey's 'energy' drinks? They have loads of b guys in them. I'm hoping they'll keep me awake this afternoon! 😂

NamechangeTTC · 17/08/2020 13:55

About 615 this morning @Welliedays. I’m about a quarter of that so less than a 5p but the same colour. Proper exhausted now. Sore. Grumpy. Probably PMT!

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 14:07

@Welliedays no sorry haven't had purdeys before lol!! But i thought caffeine was bad for pregnant women. Arent energy drinks full of caffeine lol??

@NamechangeTTC argh don't envy the late shift hope it flies by for you xx

OP posts:
candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 14:10

@NamechangeTTC lol you are such a negative Nancy 😂😂😂😂!!! Implantation bleeding sometimes happens just before missed period or a few days later. Spotting during the first 8 weeks is normal. You haven't missed your period yet so how are you too late for implantation?😂😂😂😂😂 sorry I know you are feeling miserable but you are hilarious 🤣🤣🤣

OP posts:
Welliedays · 17/08/2020 14:13

@candycrush2298 I out the energy part in inverted commas, because they're actually caffeine free (I've been on decaff tea/coffee etc since March so definitely wouldn't be having caffeine energy drink aid be flying hahahahaha). Really tasty too

@namechangettc STOP stressing about it you won't be doing yourself any good!! You can still be implanting now so don't stress. Alot of people don't get positives until a week after their missed period, so we refuse to let you count yourself out yet!

NamechangeTTC · 17/08/2020 14:23

You guys have counted me in and I’m counting me out. I don’t know why I put myself through testing!

Never heard of those drinks sorry!

Everything I read says negative 12dpo is negative. Just a femometer early test today not wasting a frer.

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 14:27

@Welliedays ooooh no I havent tried it. Looks like it has loads of good stuff in it. If its tasty thats already a plus lets hope it gives you an abundance of energy lol!!

Yeah I switched to redbush tea long ago as well, but when I get my period I rebel and drink an energy drink - I know so so bad!!! But I love it I drink the sugar free version but its definitely not caffeine free. Since I don't drink alcohol I cant drink my sorrows away in a bottle of wine so I have an energy drink instead 🤣🤣🤣🤣 so childish but ey... gotta have some fight with my body lol!!!

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 14:29

@NamechangeTTC sorry you are getting negative tests. Was that with fmu???

OP posts:
Welliedays · 17/08/2020 14:36

@candycrush2298 ahha too right!! I drank at my wedding after my chemical and then haven't had any since, we all need our guilty pleasure in whatever form it takes!! I'd say your fairly safe to drink as many as you want until you know you've ovulated!!

@namechangettc why are you doing it to yourself?! Was it even concentrated enough? Remember I got my negative on Saturday night 🙈🙈 If you were still wiping blood this morning that could be implantation finishing, so you need to give yourself time for the hcg to build up to a level that can be detected. Think how faint my line was, which was 3 days after my implantation bleeding! Stop beating yourself up by testing and try and wait a couple more days xxx

Welliedays · 17/08/2020 14:40

And I think you're being selective in what your read 😉 @namechangettc

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 14:42

@Welliedays definitely!!! Its always during AF its how I "drown my sorrows" as they say 🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh yes we all need to live as well but ovulation is definitely my cut off.

Was so funny two weeks ago we were in Costa and hubby was like a Caramel frappe? And i was like nooooooooo TWW like duh what are you playing at - I will just have a juice 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 14:52

OK NO MISTAKING THIS LADIES - I COULD FILL A CUP USED FOR TESTING PEE WITH THE AMOUNT OF EWCM!!!!

Haven't bd'd yet only tonight, so last time we bd'd was Saturday definitely not semen this time.

Oh my goodness i have never seen copious amounts like this in my life before!!! I think the soy is for real doing its thing. Hahahaah. Opks not high enough to think tomorrow will be peak but we will see could be a rapid surge.

Just had to update you girls 🤣🤣🤣
