@Missgoldilocks I'm cycle 12 even tho it's 11 months cos of my short cycles. Oh I know how important and simple it is to do, I just didn't wanna keep on at him as we're trying to sort our holiday too which I've left to him. Perhaps I'll take over that so that he keeps ringing the hospital. Have you got anymore tests left or is that it now?

Minster2012 · 12/08/2020 17:44

@blodyn91 we love Whitby!! We've been a fair few times, my MIL has a tiny quaint cottage near there so we go a few times a year, we are going in October with my best mate & her family

Missgoldilocks · 12/08/2020 18:34

@notyetamumbuttrying nope that's it, I mean I could check my amh which is my ovarian reserve I think but you can only check it privately sooo lol more money. I might get round to it if no success soon

Clairey844 · 12/08/2020 18:50

@mumof23188 I think I can see something on both pictures. Defo worth a first response??

Sorry to hear things don't seem to be progressing @Mustbemad82
Keeping my 🤞🏻for you
Just read you've had a positive on a digital still, that's a good thing x

Welcome back @Vil10, hope you're back in the game soon

Congratulations @2alreadywantanother, lovely news

Xx

mumof23188 · 12/08/2020 18:53

@mumof23188 ☹️ for now but hopefully a little bean is burrowing away and you will get your BFP soon 😘

Vil10 · 12/08/2020 19:12

@Minster2012 here's to hoping!! I can feel her brewing!!

@Clairey844 Thankyou!! My plan is to take a relaxed approach this cycle, purely just folic acid and opks! I think when I go back to work that'll have a positive affect on my TTC journey, whilst on furlough it's all I've had to focus on but September will be mad busy so my mind will be elsewhere! How're you??

@mumof23188 I know it's easier said than done but try not to worry!! I have everything crkssed for you!

NotSoPatientlyWaiting · 12/08/2020 19:16

Thanks @Katao that would be amazing if that happens!! Fingers crossed your bloods give you some answers

Franklydear · 12/08/2020 19:41

Wow, so many bfps, congrats @2alreadywantanother
Not much to report here, ewcm so fw seems on the way
My app stop working, so using the browser, I won't forget people's names

Catherinettc · 12/08/2020 19:55

Girls!! 10dpo and just have a small bit of bloody cm

Is this ib? Never had it before and I dont spot before af. Feel much netter now than the cramping etc this morning xx

mumof23188 · 12/08/2020 19:59

@Clairey844 ah that’s lovely. Thank you so much 💕.

@vil10 thank you so much ☺️

Busybee143 · 12/08/2020 20:14

I'm feeling some good vibes from all the bfps guys, congrats!!!! On a slightly crappier note I've started spotting at 5dpo which isn't a good sign, it's going to be one of those cycles!!!!

Runnergirl1 · 12/08/2020 20:23

@Missgoldilocks - thank you. I’m actually ok just really want to get a bfp and hope it sticks this time. I’ll be watching when you test, think I’m going to test later as I worried everything will be all over the place post mc but I guess only time will tell. I am going away this weekend so hopefully that will keep my mind occupied. Fingers crossed for you bfp too x

Clairey844 · 12/08/2020 20:28

@Vil10 good idea on the relaxed approach. I'm fine, CD9 here, started my clear blue ovulation tests yesterday. Got a blank yesterday but a flashing smiley today. And managed to DTD this morning before work 😂 I'm also temping this month but not sure it's wholly reliable as my little one still breastfeeds so I'm disturbed a couple of time in the night. Also had reproflexology Saturday which was mega relaxing and she seemed to know so much about the whole ttc thing so it's made me feel positive that it might help in some way.
I took the relaxed approach last month and it defo made me less stressed about the whole thing.

2alreadywantanother · 12/08/2020 21:05

@juno231 we are on the 12th, what's the % of bfp for Aug. It's looking good i think

Vil10 · 12/08/2020 21:32

@Clairey844 woooo to flashing smiley and getting a session in!! Just do whatever makes you feel better and most in control! Oooo what's that?? Sounds interesting!! Oh that's good to hear then, I jusr don't want the stressing in the TWW😩

Mrsi2020 · 12/08/2020 21:39

Did a Tesco earlier had a vvvvfl, did a clearblue with a 2 hour hold.... and a Tesco with a 3 hour hold. I have no way to get a pink test until Friday . I’ll test with frer then xxx

Really bad AF like pains yesterday evening, like the super achey low in my uterus needing a hot water bottle kind of pain. Not ideal in the heat wave haha! Obvs I didn’t get a hot water bottle, suffering the pain was more bearable than making myself even hotter! Could this be just random AF cramps or implantation?! I’m 8dpo today, still have a little bit of pressure down there but I’m not sure if it’s just gas (I have been SO gassy the past few days!?) although it feels kinda like af lurking again. I never really get pains this early in my cycle though. Anybody else experienced this before (or experiencing it this cycle?!) xx

Minster2012 · 12/08/2020 22:15

@Clairey844 yay for flashing smiles and then flashing bits around by DTD! Boom! Pizza and choc now yeah?!!

@Mrsi2020 can def see a line there on the second did it come up within the time? Xx🥰💕🤞🏻fingers crossed for the frer on Friday, what dpo are you?

@blodyn91 have you heard back on the barn yet or is the estate guy still off?

Ladies I feel like shit. Literally. Poo. First day of northisterone today & I mentioned I felt nauseous this morning & oh my god it's not got better all day. I feel like I've been hit by a truck. I've done 2 dog walks in nearly 30 degree heat (don't feel sorry for the dogs, they were early & late & by canals so THEY were fine dipping in & out of water when they wanted) then driving around to dog groomer for the cockapoo I've nearly had to pull over to be sick. I've been paid on sofa til now with an ice pack on me. No food tonight. Sweating so badly. I only managed a few squares of Oreo choc. What's up with me?? I've had northisterone before. I've had much more wine than last night (2 glasses & a gin) but I'm dead. I'm not coughing so I don't think COVID. Urgh.

Plus so many ppl are now commenting on me looking svelte it's actually getting to me, even dog groomer said to me "god you've lost weight" I haven't lost that much just got back to how I was last summer, but last time you saw me I was a bit pregnant (not that I said that) & had been on 2.5 months of hormones from IVF AND it was after XMAS Indulgence.
Sorry. Rant over. Hope a good sleep will help.

Busybee143 · 12/08/2020 22:39

@Minster2012 sounds like your having a rubbish time but you will get through it and I'm sure you will reap the rewards soon :D have you tried drinking anything different to make you feel better? Sounds stupid but mint always settles me, hope your feeling better soon x

Clairey844 · 12/08/2020 22:41

@Vil10
Reproflexology is Reflexology to help with getting pregnant!! It's usually used by couples doing assisted conception it seems. Knew nothing about it until I went for a session with the Reflexologist I used to see but haven't been to for ages. Went for the relaxation side but then found out she'd added the reproductive element to her offerings which was like yes please!!
I think stress in the 2ww is unfortunately a given but I defo found it went quicker not knowing exactly how many dpo I was; mainly because I then didn't spend hours each day googling xdpo and a symptom like 6dpo itchy elbow and then convincing myself I was definitely pregnant 😂😂

Ha ha @Minster2012 I admit I was pretty impressed myself to be DTD within 10 mins of getting a flashing smiley! Especially as I was getting ready for work and we have a toddler 😂
I did actually indulge in pizza (well pizza base garlic bread from the takeaway) and chocolate tonight so I feel I am taking all the necessary steps 😂😂
Sorry you're feeling poo though, let's just hope it is the effects of the northisterone and you're not coming down with anything.
And at least people aren't saying you've put on weight!!!
Hope you can sleep with this heat and you feel better in the morning 😘

Mrsi2020 · 12/08/2020 22:43

@Minster2012 it did come up within the time frame. Fingers crossed. It’s faded as it’s dried a little which I’ve found oddly reassuring considering Evans normally darken as they dry. Here’s hoping.

You sound like you’re having a rubbish time, I hope a good nights sleep helps too. We’re always here to chat xxx

Cocoblue22 · 12/08/2020 23:31

Place marking so I can catch up with everyone 👀.....hope everyone is good x

Vil10 · 13/08/2020 07:16

@Clairey844 ohhh okay that sounds helpful and interesting too!! So good that she added the reproductive elements too!! Yeah I think you're right, no matter how busy you are I think stress in the 2ww is inevitable! Itchy elbow😂😂 so true though, could be something completely unrelated to TTC but we still be checking if it could be a rare symptom😂

@Minster2012 sorry you're feeling so shit!! It's the worse when you're feeling like that and not yourself! Hopefully it's just an off day on the northisterone and you're back to your normal self today!!

lucyrp · 13/08/2020 07:30

Omg girls I've just been catching up on yesterday this week seems to be the slowest week ever it felt like Friday on Tuesday and then again yesterday and still feels like Friday today but last day of work for me today before 4 days off 😅 I didn't even know whag cycle day I was until o checked fermometer to remind me 😂 CD24 today and maybe 8dpo. Get my bloods back on Monday to tell me if I did or not 🙄

@2alreadywantanother I nearly missed your BFP!! Congratulations!🤩🥰❤️
