@Minster2012 love you, gal

Thats about the extent of my running abilities too @Minster2012 😂 Can walk for miles tho, I love a good walk but can run 2steps to save myself.

Finally started to bleed last night, forgot just how horrendous the cramping can be after a CP. Luckily unknowingly my mum asked if DS wanted to go down to hers for a sleepover for 2 nights so he's away with them, OH is at work and I have a day off so can lie in bed with my hot water bottle and stuff my face with chocolate.......who am I kidding, childfree time is so rare I need to crack on with the mountain of to do tasks that I cant get done with a toddler around! But I will still have a cheeky hour or two of curling up feeling sorry for myself first 😂

BFN for me on IC at 10 DPO I caved!

@DKDK123 hope your not in to much pain but can definitely allow yourself chance to curl up for a couple of hours!

@Franklydear your not out yet!

@Hopeful110 I also cannot run 😂 so go you!!

@LaceyMermaid your not out yet still early days, keeping my fingers crossed for you! I’d love to say I with POAS soon but I know I will

@Florence13 thanks my temp is still up so hopefully I’m in with a chance still! Told myself I wasn’t going to but couldn’t help myself! I’ve got 2 FRERs though that I’m saving for later on I’m thinking 13/14dpo

@LaceyMermaid that sounds promising! Fingers crossed for you. Yes good idea if you can wait until 13dpo for the FRER hopefully you will see your BFP

@LaceyMermaid definitely don't count yourself out at 10dpo, still plenty of time for that bfp to show, keeping everything crossed for you 🤞

@DKDK123 that's really good timing about DS being away and make sure you take time fir yourself too, it's not all about getting stuff done (see earlier comment/rant about why should we be the ones to do everything/not have time for ourselves????) especially when you are in cramping hell???

@LaceyMermaid definitely too soon, Save that FRER & 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Thanks guys @Florence13 @DKDK123 @Minster2012 I shouldn’t have tested! Was being so strong until today!

Hello everyone, hope everything is okay! I have a question I did a test this morning and it had a faint line (very faint but there, I think 😳) then I put the test down and forgot about it and I've just gone to throw it away and it's gone really dark? I haven't ever had that before even with faint lines drying. I know it's out of time so I'm not counting it as anything but just wondering if anyone has had the same? Thanks x

@Ladybird345 I've had that happen with opks.

@Ladybird345 I've had that yeah just like where it's evaporated darker.

I'm cd51 now and got a text back from the Dr... Saying that as I've said my periods are irregular then they can do a blood test to check hormones so to phone and book a blood test for CD1.
Well if I knew when cd1 was going to be I wouldn't be bloody irregular would I!
And because of Covid it's a text only, I can't speak to anyone and I can't have an appt. Dunno what I pay £100s into NI each month for..
Sorry to rant 🤣

@SarahTTC2020 thats so infuriating, it doesnt make any sense at all! Think you're going to have to add crystal ball to your ttc shopping list 😂

@Franklydear you're not out yet🤞🏼

@Hopeful110 so glad af has nor arrived yet!! This is positive!!

@LaceyMermaid it's still really early days, I'd say hold on a few more days and maybe test with an frer if you want to be af is due!

@Minster2012 so, I have a question for you you wise lady, I took the northisterone for the week I was away didn't I, stopped taking it on the 11th, had my period 15th-19th, started using opks on the 26th, they've got darker only slightly, done one today, after drinking a coffee and 1 litre of water and it was a 5 hour hold!! My wee was pretty diluted, almost clear, and I didn't get a line as strong as what I usually would be getting at this time in my cycle, do you think the northisterone could be messing up my ovulation days or am I just hydrated and my wee is too diluted to be picking up a good level of LH? I did the opk at 12:55 so I'm not going to drink anything now and going to hold my wee until about 3:30/4 and test again!

@SarahTTC2020 that's so frustrating!! I swear they just don't listen at all sometimes! Can you not ring back your go and explain that you have no idea when CD1 will be therefore you can't make an appointment!x

Preseed update.....I tried it your way @Juno231 and I agree, it's nice not to break the flow.

@DKDK123 @Minster2012 ….I told OH that once it's in 'I have to have a little lie-down on my own, it's part of the process' - and bless him he cleaned the kitchen whilst I had a little rest

@splendidsqueak7 haha best update I've had in a while!! Glad it worked well :)

@SarahTTC2020 depends on where you'd need to go to take the blood test - my GPs have their own blood test clinic and it's super easy to get a booking + your hormone test should be fine on CD2/3 as well so I guess just call them up as soon as AF shows?

5DPO today and just twiddling my thumbs! Am stressed at work though as I'm falling behind but have zero motivation to actually get things done....

Anyone got any nice plans for the long weekend?
Oh and chuck your best bus 16 name suggestions at me!

Hi everyone. I took some time out after may/June as was diagnosed with ashermans and had surgery to remove the scar tissue at month and very surprising I’ve just had a BFP at 10dpo and on a digital!!! I’m in shock!!!!

I don't know about the rest of you, but on the 2 months that I got BFP (chemicals) since starting TTC, I had absolutely no spotting. So now I know when I get any spotting the days before AF is due, that's me definitely out. @Franklydear I really hope that's not the case for you 🤞 it feels like it should be your time now!

I don't think I've covered this month well as we baby danced 6 days in a row and then on the 6th I got my OPK peak (I usually ovulate days earlier) but because we had done so much we haven't had the energy to go again since, so I won't have hit the actual ovulation day 😑

Have you all managed to DTD enough this cycle?

Love it! @splendidsqueak7 wish I had thought of that. Tho I do sometimes tell my OH I'm too stressed to think about sex because of the mess in the house and he very swiftly gets his finger out to tidy up 😂

Congratulations @MrsRSS! To get a bfp on a digital at 10dpo, it must be a very strong result hope that means a mega sticky bean for you 😊

@2020mission I used to spot for 2days before my period ever since my son was born it followed that pattern then just randomly about 3 or 4 months ago I stopped spotting before it. I think our bodies like to wait till we spot a pattern then just change everything up to confuse us.

@2020mission tbf I don't rate BD on OD! You want the swimmers to be ready for the egg, I always think by the time it's released it's less likely to work as his men still need to actually get on location. So if you BD on O-2 and O-3 that's you 100% as far as I'm concerned as those are slightly more fertile than O :)

@MrsRSS congrats! How did you manage to get ashermans diagnosed if I may ask? So was this the first cycle trying post surgery?

Hi @Juno231. I saw someone privately in the end. I kept getting told that ashermans is rare so my ridiculous periods wouldn’t be because of that. Yes! I also haven’t been ovulating so was due to start medication next month to help my ovaries and thicken my lining. Just hope the lining is okay for the pregnancy now.

Thank you @DKDK123 😘

@Juno231 isn't the first week of the TWW boring, then the second week is torture!! We're out for food at a Greek restaurant with friends tomorrow night then going for a few drinks, chilled night on Sunday though! Have you got any plans?

@MrsRSS wow congratulations!! Amazing news! Can I ask though what is ashermans?X

@2020mission I think you'll have covered it deffo if you've DTD 6 days in a row leading up to ovulation!! I don't think we've managed to DTD enough for once though, flo app is saying ovulation tomorrow but going off other cycles I tbink Monday, we BD last Saturday and Sunday then nothing until last night, we have both been knackered and I kinda just weren't thinking about the necessity of DTD this month😂 so hoping to DTD from last night through to Tuesday now and hopefully that's enough!!

Hi @Vil10 it’s scarring in the uterus which causes it the uterus to stick together. I had 2 d&c’s within 3 weeks of each other due to a molar pregnancy
