So this is really random and I don't even know why I'm writing it because I don't want to tempt fate, but the only thing I do have is sensitive armpits.

Bear with me...😂

I didn't think much of it but the first time I got PG I suddenly reacted to something, had sore red itchy pits and had to change deodorant. I didn't relate it to pregnancy. Last cycle, I started to get it again and I then looked back to when it was before, and realised it was when I was pg.
I then got my bfp.
They have been a bit sore for a few days but today, one is totally red and raised and really itchy.

I'm sure it's nothing, but it's fun to see things that prolong the positivity and delay the sadness of a bfn.

Bodies are strange. Anyone had any weird things like that that can feed my imagination? xx

Northernsoul90 · 11/08/2020 10:31

@VP91x Thank you for the new thread 😘 I'm glad your bloods are being done soon as well hopefully it will give you some insight xx

@Firevie Wow gorgeous pics!! It looks amazing xx

@MichT4 Hoping and praying for you a bfp for you lovely 🙏🏼🌈 xx

@Lynz2020 Congratulations!! 🌈🥳 amazing news!! Xx

@chloedancer897 Im glad you are feeling more positive today. Wishing you lots of luck in your ttc journey moving forward ✨ yes please do keep us updated with how you get on xx

@MrsK21 Yay for the provera working! I'm glad it seems to be moving things forward for you xx

Morning everyone ☀️ I’ve just been chilling at home enjoying my last two weeks off work. Feeling the fatigue on and off, had an afternoon nap yesterday and one this morning already 😅 off to see a friend for a bit soon and then picking my mum up as she’s on holiday from work too this week so she’s staying over a couple of nights. My brother his wife and my nephew are also coming later so we’re having a takeaway.

@Firevie stunning 😍
@Lynz2020 massive congratulations 🥳
@MichT4 🤞🏻🤞🏻 My fingers are crossed for you xx
@chloedancer897 what a difference a day makes! What a great new plan! It is definitely worth a shot going private. Best of luck 🤞🏻🤞🏻
And hope everyone else is good too and have a lovely Tuesday ❤️

Pugprincess · 11/08/2020 10:40

@VP91x also thank you for the new thread 🙂

Lollol86 · 11/08/2020 10:47

@MichT4 ohhhh now that is interesting. Isn't it strange how our bodies react to pregnancy. Is it Thursday you are testing? Xx

MrsK21 · 11/08/2020 10:48

@MichT4 I've never heard of itchy pits as a pg sign but if it's lining up for you, I really hope it's a BFP! Are you tempted to test early now? I shouldn't encourage but I really want to know lol

Ah your handyman sounds great and just doing things without fuss. Hopefully not a messy one either. We decided to paint our house in really light colours so whenever work gets done, we have to repaint as can see grubby marks all over the walls / frames!

@Pugprincess I remember those naps when I was pg, they were such deep satisfying ones too. Takeaway with family later sounds lush - what are you treating yourself to?

@2020wish thank you, just a relief to be able to move onto 1st cycle post MC now. Even my OH (who after 77 days of nothing - has totally switched off from TTC) was so pleased and told me he can't wait to start trying again so I feel so so happy that we can at least try again. The last couple of months have been really hard knowing I'm not ovulating and my body just being stuck in limbo.

I've decided to brave Covent Garden for dinner with friends later in celebration of a new cycle :D

MichT4 · 11/08/2020 10:54

@Lollol86 @MrsK21 I'm fairly sure it's not a sign and that I just need new deodorant again but I'm clinging on to something.
Yes I plan to test Thursday and I think I'll stick with Thursday...I think 😂

Well it's a new build @MrsK21 so they just come and do it. I don't think they care about just changing stuff as it's not their money. And that's also why they advise not to paint or decorate for a year because all the touch ups leave marks 🙄

Lollol86 · 11/08/2020 11:02

@MichT4 you think 😂😂

Omg I'm dying trying to work in this heat, the fan is doing absolutely nothing 😭😭
I've been so grateful we've had lovely weather over lockdown but I'm definitely an autumn/winter kind of girl. Big comfy numbers any day over dresses xx

MichT4 · 11/08/2020 11:05

@Lollol86 😂😂 that's more the negative side. I'm sure I know it'll be blank and I'd rather know than keep dreaming. I can see myself getting hopeful so I need to nip it in the bud

Totally with you on the heat and working. So you know what I did? I've come out to train instead 🥵🥵
What an absolute moron 😂😂

Northernsoul90 · 11/08/2020 11:06

@Pugprincess Enjoy all the naps and takeaways you can get! You deserve it! Xx

I'm not sure when to start doing opks this time I'm on cd6 now, prior to mc my cycles would be 31/32 days and I would ovulate on 19/20 but I don't want to miss it! I was going to start cd10 maybe?

MichT4 · 11/08/2020 11:08

@Northernsoul90 cd10 sounds like a good day to start. Are you starting with cheapies or CB? I have long old cycles and I think I'll even start about then, just in case. It's come around so quick - cd6 already!

Lollol86 · 11/08/2020 11:12

@MichT4 sorry but I agree total moron 🤣🤣 I've went as far as the garden to put the washing out then came back inside.

MichT4 · 11/08/2020 11:30

@Lollol86 I need all the distractions. I was about to eat lunch at 10.30, this was the only sure fire way of not reaching for food. I seriously need to get back to some sensibleness. I found myself drumming on my bloat this morning 😂😂😫

Lollol86 · 11/08/2020 11:33

@MichT4 oh I feel your pain, so far this morning I've had my breakfast and then been casually munching my way through biscuits and popcorn. I seriously need to get my act together or I'm never coming out of lockdown 🤣🤣

2020wish · 11/08/2020 12:13

@MichT4 ohhhh itchy pits!!!! Test! Test! Test!!!

@MrsK21 aww so glad he is excited also!! That’s amazing knowing he’s so onboard!!! Yes go and have ur dinner and enjoy the day! We have to celebrate our small victories

@Pugprincess enjoy ur takeaway

MichT4 · 11/08/2020 12:29

🤣🤣🤣 @2020wish I love the celebration of the itchy pits. I'd love it to be a reason to POAS but I think it's more of a reason to check my sanity 😂

2020wish · 11/08/2020 12:34

@MichT4 u have too much self control! Lol 😂 I have none

MichT4 · 11/08/2020 12:39

@2020wish if only they didn't need FMU. I think I'd pee pure water at this stage of a hot day.

How are you doing?

Diorissimo1985 · 11/08/2020 12:41

Thanks for the new thread @VP91x 😁

@MichT4 the armpits thing could mean something? Fluctuating hormones I guess? I attribute most symptoms to hormones... fx crossed for you! When are you testing?

Diorissimo1985 · 11/08/2020 12:43

Sorry @MichT4 just read you’re testing Thursday... I’m praying it’s your BFP!!

MichT4 · 11/08/2020 12:46

Thanks @Diorissimo1985. It makes me hopeful as I've only had it like this those two times, but equally things change so much following a MC, it's likely to be hormones but could just be confused hormones!

How are you doing? xx

2020wish · 11/08/2020 12:56

@MichT4 I’m ok. Taking each day as it comes but secretly starting to get really excited about this pregnancy. Heading for lunch now with a friend and her new born. Roll on Thursday until u test. How many dpo will u be then x

VP91x · 11/08/2020 12:59

@chloedancer897 I hope you continue to feel a bit better. Would you go straight to IVF or explore other options first? I suppose they would go through with you at a consultation wouldn't they? Wishing you all the luck in the world. ❤️

@MrsK21 so these are progesterone levels to check if I've ovulated.. I had my thyroid levels checked a few months back. They were normal but my TSH was quite high which apparently can affect fertility, but could also be high because of the pcos. It's a minefield! That's crazy it worked so fast for you but yay!! So glad you are getting a fresh start.

@MichT4 the only positive is that it will dry in record time haha, so handy! Whaaat you're training.. Outside!? You'll melt 😂.

I don't think you're crazy. Pregnancy causes all these weird things and if it is a common denominator in your pregnancies then I'm even more hopeful for you!!

I mean you COULD test tomorrow 👀 (bad influence over here 💁)

I'm just here staring at my OPK like a loon! 😂

@Pugprincess glad you are relaxing and enjoying the time with your family ❤️

OP posts:
MichT4 · 11/08/2020 13:04

@2020wish I'll be 12-14dpo on Thursday I think. So hopefully it'll be an accurate result by then.

Enjoy lunch! And I'm so happy you're getting excited, you totally should be excited!!

@VP91x 😂😂 I did melt, and then the cool shower made me sweat more. Then I hung another load out and that made my face drip 😂😂. I do like how much washing I can get done though!
By the way, it was in the garage, not outside, but that was like a furnace. Luckily there's a fan in there so I sat with my face in it most of the time.

How's the new job going? What's the bastard OPK saying now?

xx

VP91x · 11/08/2020 13:18

@MichT4 haha I'm going to have yet another quick shower in a minute, I was jetwashing the bins because it was bin day and they stink. Now I stink of bleach haha.

I think it is a bit darker, but it's so minimal I think I'm seeing things. Xx
