@notyetamumbuttrying it’s an excellent name I’ve been called far worse 🤣 I just went for advanced for now and thought If I get any smileys I’ll get some advanced Digital ones for next month! I don’t know what to do really 🙄 Thinking I’ll maybe try soy isoflavones next month too as they can help ovulation anyone tried them?

lucyrp · 18/08/2020 14:17

@notyetamumbuttrying I always get mine short when I first have them done so there is room for them to grow!

@blodyn91 no I haven't done a test yet was waiting and hoping for AF to arrive. Odd I know! I know ridiculous isn't it

notyetamumbuttrying · 18/08/2020 15:29

@QwertyBert whoo hoo, hope it's a nice sticky bean!!
@LaceyMermaid haha yeah same!
Not tried them myself but heard good things. They're on my list to try in the future too. I love adding things in every month, makes me feel like I'm in control of something!
@lucyrp yeah defo, makes sense don't it. Plus mine only ever get so far and just break anyway. I thought with all my supplements they would have strengthened by now, but alas not!

Missgoldilocks · 18/08/2020 15:54

@LaceyMermaid I'm gonna try iso flavones of my period comes this month too, I'll try anything now hahaha

@notyetamumbuttrying how are you?

I don't post much on here sorry I come and go lol still plodding along, 9dpo today and yesterday had cramps hot super excited then realised I always get cramps at that time every cycle 😅🙄 I'm about ready to lose my shit with this Ttc lark

SarahTTC2020 · 18/08/2020 15:57

@QwertyBert congratulations!
You give me hope that AF will stay away as I'm 16dpo but had a bfn at 14dpo

notyetamumbuttrying · 18/08/2020 16:13

Hey @Missgoldilocks good thanks although got period pain 😒and my annoying brain is making me think it's a pregnancy sign arghhhhh! So much for being zen this cycle and not poas left right and centre! I'm gonna have to take a test tomorrow, I can't hold out any longer @LaceyMermaid I am no longer zen lol!
How are you apart from losing your shit lol?! @Missgoldilocks it's very tiring and shit this ttc game right!!

Missgoldilocks · 18/08/2020 16:39

@notyetamumbuttrying haha it really is! I think that it's hard to deal with when you think it's just going to happen, especially within a year. It's hard not to obsess over everything you feel and just be so impatient that it's taking a long time. I guess the worst thing is not knowing when it will happen I think that's what drives us up the wall. Imagine you come off contraception and you get a notification saying "you'll be oregnnat in a year" or this month etc you'd be like cool and just wait lol. I have my days of feeling negative and I have my positive days but either way we are here for the long haul so it is what it is right?
When's af due? Fingers crossed its a good sign!!

notyetamumbuttrying · 18/08/2020 16:51

@Missgoldilocks you hit the nail on the head exactly there!! The not knowing when is the absolute worst part of it all!
Due on Thursday so think if I do a test tomorrow then at least I can just sit and wait for af when I get the bfn. I can then go and get day 3 bloods. I've already got it booked in for Friday on day 2 as my cycles are short. How lovely if I get to cancel it!!
I always get period pain a few days before af so I don't know why I'm torturing myself again 😂 I swear I've never been as insane as I am now in my life! My friend told me I should get counselling last night as I'm just so anxious all the time, clearly made worse by ttc.

Missgoldilocks · 18/08/2020 17:05

@notyetamumbuttrying I'm like you, I have anxiety too and kind of think the worst about things also which is shite so this Ttc has sent me over the bloody edge mate lol but I'm pretty sick of people telling me I shoukd try relax or stop thinking about it and it will happen lol like do you think I want to sit here obsessing? Do you THINK I enjoy torturing myself? 😂 Listen the amount of shit advise I've had from people during this time I could literally write a book.
Obviously if you're stressed and you notice your periods are becoming irregular from it yeah you need to get that sorted but if it's not then how is me thinking about it affecting my chance of conceiving? Yeah it's mentally draining, but people that tell me I'm not petting pregnant because I'm thinking about it I could strangle. Anyway, counselling could help you(sorry went off on a tandum because a few people had told me that today mainly my mum and sis😬) I had counselling for anxiety and it really helped me to see things differently at that time, they give you a different way to look at things, a more positive way which helps :) also though, these threads can be soooo supportive but I also think sometimes it can make you obsess more, when I cut out mum's net for a little bit my head seems to relax some.
I wish I could book a holiday every month for the last week of the 2ww I mean that woukd just sort it all out because that's mainly when I turn crazy 😂😜

Busybee143 · 18/08/2020 17:17

@Quertybert congrats!!!!

What are the signs of a chemical pregnancy guys?

LaceyMermaid · 18/08/2020 18:48

@notyetamumbuttrying no bloody smoky even though I’m cd 17 have ewcm sore boobs and have not had a peak yet! Grrrrrrrr not zen here!

LaceyMermaid · 18/08/2020 18:49

When I took out the CB test it had a faint line does that mean anything or no?

LaceyMermaid · 18/08/2020 18:55

@Missgoldilocks oh I’ll join you then! Bit worried that they can mess up your cycle but seeing as mine seems messed up anyway I think I’ll give them a whirl!

2alreadywantanother · 18/08/2020 20:10

@busybee143 I cant help I'm afraid. Sorry
Hope ur ok x

Clairey844 · 18/08/2020 20:22

Evening everyone, just catching up after a couple of nights at my friends in Hunstanton-little one had a blast at the seaside.

@Busybee143 not entirely sure but believe it's when you get a positive then get AF or then get negative tests; are you worried? AmI right in thinking you recently got a BFP? Sorry to hear something might be up but 🤞🏻it's not.

@lucyrp hoping you are on for a normal cycle this time even if it is AF that arrives at least it's not part of a year again 😂😂

@Minster2012 how are you feeling/doing? Hope the hormones aren't messing with you too badly. How was the meet up with the perfects? I hope that was you anyway, I can't be bothered to scroll that far back 😂

Got my static smiley this morning 🎉🎉
Had dtd Sunday morning before setting off and will get on it tonight (although OH seems to be really moody but may have to just ignore that for the greater good 😂) so hoping to feel I'm in with a chance this month after last FW being a washout due to being in a shared caravan.

Here's to ovulating tomorrow and into the dreaded 2ww. Although summer hols are over for me as of Monday so that'll keep me busy!!

X

Busybee143 · 18/08/2020 20:52

@2alreadywantanother @Clairey844
Thanks guys, just a little worried as I've had a 'period' about 5 days early but I do have a bfp yeah I'm still slightly spotting though so I'm just wondering if it will stick

Minster2012 · 18/08/2020 21:33

@QwertyBert congratulations!!! 🥰🥳😘

@lucyrp your nails look immense! Glad you had a great birthday trip away, so where exactly was it? I was so hoping I was gonna fine back on here @ see a BFP for you lady?? So what your bloods were normal, as in you ovulated? That's good right? But no AF yet? So are you going to test or wait? 🤞🏻everything crossed for you girl xxx

@Busybee143 have you tested again since your BFP? I don't know the signs of a chemical, I think it's just a BFP then a late AF maybe? Try think positive and test again a few days. Unless an ACTUAL full flow comes you are still pregnant 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Clairey844 that's great on the static and that you can use it! Get on him! Don't let him fob you off, get that ass in his face (but take it outta his face again cos that AIN't gonna make babies 😂). I'm a hormonal mess on the brink of divorce but hey hooooooo same ol same ol shit really.
Hubby working too hard, hating it (he can't change it, it's the business he runs 🤷‍♀️) working all hours & we've got a screaming toddler so meh why not try have another by the hardest most stressful method possible in a pandemic 😬

lucyrp · 18/08/2020 21:37

@Minster2012 thanks I'm in love with them I can't stop staring at them! Well we went to tenby in Pembrokeshire but the place I posted the photo of was St Govan's Head and there's a small chapel right in the cliffs! No no BFP for me yet! Well they said normal but it was only a receptionist so I've asked for a doctors call back and they can talk me through the actual figures and see if I have ovulated or not. I did a one step IC tonight and nothing but 🤷🏼‍♀️ I would expect AF at the latest by Thursday and if she's not here then I'm accepting I'm in for another long cycle unfortunately. How are you ?❣️xxx

@Clairey844 I bloody hope af comes 😫😭

@notyetamumbuttrying my nails get soft the longer they get!

Busybee143 · 18/08/2020 21:41

@Minster2012 no I haven't tested again, I'm too scared to as silly as that sounds. I might test again tomorrow

notyetamumbuttrying · 18/08/2020 21:44

@Missgoldilocks it's sent me over the edge too lol! My sister is in hospital just waiting to see if she's in labour or not and all I feel is numb, it's so weird!! I was far from like this when she had her first and I wasn't ttc. I was 24 and single and it was the last thing I wanted, now I just feel a bit mental. Esp with being due on on Thursday. He'll prob be born then I bet. I'm excited for a new nephew and can't wait to meet him, just feels a bit bitter sweet as they weren't planning another, one of those "it just happened pregnancies" (she was on the pill). Oh and ppl saying just relax etc can fuck right off, easy for them to say! My periods are still regular, only had one odd cycle the whole 11 months of ttc. I've had counselling before, I don't really feel like I can be arsed again lol, might have to if I don't snap out of this soon 🤷🏾‍♀️ OMG how fab would that be, we all need a hol every tww defo 😂
@LaceyMermaid I'm far from zen now myself lol! And CB's shouldn't have any lines on them when u take them out the packet?!
@Minster2012 hey lovely! How's things with you?

notyetamumbuttrying · 18/08/2020 21:52

Bless my sister, only 2cm so they've sent her home! Poor love. At least he might come closer to Saturday now and it'll be easier to go see him without work in the way.
@lucyrp yeah same as mine, must be why they snap off so easily!

LaceyMermaid · 18/08/2020 22:05

@notyetamumbuttrying oops sorry meant when I took it out of the holder there was control line and faint line but it was just a circle so not peak. I literally am getting faint line on all opks too!

Hopeful110 · 19/08/2020 06:53

@LaceyMermaid heyy, I used the CB opks (purple and pink one) I got faint lines on the purple one when I got a blank circle or flashy smiley, then when I got my peak the line was so dark it was the same colour as the first line. I got 2 days of blank circle and 3 days of flashy then on Friday afternoon I got my peak :) so stick with it, I used CB alongside IC ones too :)

LaceyMermaid · 19/08/2020 07:37

Thanks @Hopeful110 my temp has gone up this morning but still a blank circle and now FF has decided I ov’ed last weds! 🤷🏼‍♀️

Minster2012 · 19/08/2020 07:41

@Busybee143 I know what you mean about being scared to test again but if it's only spotting keep the faith lovely we are all behind you...🤞🏻it doesn't matter about doing a test or not. If you don't get full AF then hopefully the bean is snuggled in for you.

@lucyrp your nails look fab & if were you I would keep looking at them 😂mine look shit & bitten up so I'm not posting a pic!! Keep pushing to speak to the doctor & keep DTD gorgeous. I'm not doing great tbh but keeping plodding.

@Missgoldilocks are you waiting for AF or testing? Are we on for another super weekend with you guys @Runnergirl1 @notyetamumbuttrying how you feeling today being due tomorrow & with your sister n all? Sending big hugs xxx

@MrsCrumbtious hows the potty training??? 🍷🥂any more helpful deliveries? Did you test or witch arrive did I miss it sorry I've been off a bit lately?

Who else have I missed ladies?

I think we may have exhausted it but let's do a quick weds blast from the past...
Sex toy or dog toy? Only 2
