Update on me - there is no update 😂 CD20, not even a sniff of a positive OPK and no temp rise. Will have bloods done in the next couple of days. Gynae appt on 16th Sept is the plan xx

@eclipsechips the ferning seems interesting! Is it normally accurate? Is it affected by sleep or temperature or anything? I'm so glad it won't be me dealing with him all night. I've done the newborn years with my daughter his turn with the dog haha xx

@VP91x mine seems to be quite accurate tying in with EWCM so far - I loved biology at school I think that's why this is my favourite tracking method so far!

DH and I take nights each as we're both grumpy if we're overtired but last night was our first full night's sleep so fingers crossed that's the way it's headed now.

@VP91x animal food makes me feel sick 🤮🤮

@vp91x No I didn't. The last one I got that was peak was 31st July, but that would still put me 15dpo, and would have meant my temp went below cover for a while. Not that that would matter if I'd got a bfp out of it. I didn't do any after that. I guess I could have implanted late, then it would still be faint.
Who blinkin knows!! I have a feeling in a couple of days it'll be negative, then I won't know whether to class it as a chemical 😢 or just bad luck with tests.

Makes me think the temps and stuff are just annoying as without them I'd just assume I'd ovulated later. More straw clutching. I'm good at that.

@MrsK21 bloody annoying ay!? Typical honestly, I'd say it could only happen to me but I think we've all had our share of pain in the arse things along this journey!

Keep the poms poms our girls, and if it goes tits up you can cheer my real Prosecco and gin 🥂

@eclipsechips welcome to the group lovely, and sorry for your loss. Ferning sounds really interesting. I don't think I need another tracker to take the pee out of me 🤣 xx

Hi ladies so took another test this morning bfn which I was expecting as I've had more spotting 🙄. I honestly thought I could see a vvfl on the test I took the other day so who knows. Anyway I've got my appointment with my consultant next week so I really hope there will be something that can be done to help as I'm actually losing the will with all this ttc. I'm also tempted to stop taking all the supplements except the preconception vitamin as this was all I took when I fell pregnant last time!

@VP91x Our bodies are so confusing and frustrating aren't they!! 🤦🏽‍♀️ I'm good thank you cd10 today, I was meant to start cb opks this morning and I forgot to do one with fmu do you think I should still do one now or wait for tomorrow? I've had the one wee and one cup of tea? I don't want it to throw tomorrow mornings result off that's the only thing xx

@eclipsechips Hello, welcome and I'm sorry for your loss. I've never heard of ferning so just quickly googled and it sounds really interesting! Xx

@HE88 Sorry it was a bfn lovely 😔 I'm glad you have your app next week though where they should be able to give you some answers! I think that sometimes should I just stop over complicating everything tracking this, that and the other and taking a million supplements xx

Thanks @Northernsoul90 ☺️. I know you think you are doing all the right things just to be constantly disappointed. Xx

@Northernsoul90 you can do yeah, do a three hour hold or something! Just to get the first obligatory blank out the way. Is CD10 the day it tells you to start based on cycle length? Xx

@MichT4 also, I do think temps with the AVA could be more susceptible to weather changes. Im not sure!? Its all mental isn't it.

@Lollol86 I know it's gross, haha.

@eclipsechips how long after you get the ferns do you ovulate? Xx

@HE88 I'm sorry it was another negative and more spotting 😔. I think do whatever makes you the least stressed, I'm glad you have your consultant appt next week xx

@eclipsechips sorry for your loss, sending you lots of baby dust 🌈

@MrsK21 ohhh my brows feel amazing now, although getting my hair done sounds like a treat, that's ok my to do list xx

@HE88 oh I'm so sorry to hear it was a bfn, fingers crossed you can get somewhere with your consultant xx

@Firevie have a lovely day at the wedding, hope you are feeling better xx

@VP91x It's not no, normally I don't ovulate until cd19/20 and have 31/32 day cycles but thought I would start earlier this time as it's my first proper cycle since mc. I don't know if it will follow the usual pattern! Xx

@Northernsoul90 ooh okay, just don't be disheartened if you get more flashies than normal. If you do it earlier sometimes it does that! But yeah totally get that you would want to see if the pattern is different 🥰 xx

@VP91x I know that's what I was thinking I bet I end up with loads of flashies 🥴. Yeah I just don't want to miss anything but I can't imagine ovulating much earlier than normal xx

@Northernsoul90 maybe just do it from tomorrow then? So you take a day away haha xx

Thanks @VP91x and @Lollol86 ☺️. It's hard when you want it so much as I'm sure all you ladies understand! Xx

@VP91x Yeah I think I will do!! Can't cope with too many annoying flashies 🤣 xx

@VP91x I use wellness complete with the little one - it’s not too bad

@MichT4 @Northernsoul90 @VP91x I think it’s been the best for me so far - with the fertility monitor I’m not always getting fmu if I’m up with the pup and with Ava I find my temp fluctuates with the heat just now but with the ferning I tend to find I get partial ferning the day before I ovulate and full ferning the day of ovulation. I use the maybe baby that my DH found on Amazon

@Lollol86 thank you

@HE88 I know so well how hard it can be. How long have you been ttc? X

@eclipsechips is that raw food, too?

Ooh so interesting, I'll read up more about it! Xc

@Northernsoul90 haha absolutely, hate those stupid things. I wish they would just say something like 'nope not today!!' haha xx

@VP91x So I did a wee that was quite dark and thought I might as well dip it as I had held for a few hours - got a circle on the monitor and then the stick looked like this (I know you aren't supposed to read the lines on cb technically) the cb stick looks quite dark compared to how they normally start off so maybe I will ovulate earlier 🤔 xx

Hi ladies I’ve been away for a while because I’ve had a lot going on and missed so much! So many lovely bfp congratulations.
And so many lovely new puppies as well I really wish I could have one, I had to leave my two springers at my mums when I moved 5 years ago because I work full time and they would be alone. Had them over after I miscarried and they save me every time unfortunately had to send them back home though.

So I’m now cd 24 of this cycle, but I’m so confused, we dtd every other day from cd 10 until after I supposedly ovulated, I ovulated cd 15 if my lh surge and app is right. Anyway I had some severe pain on my right lower abdomen on Monday just gone and it got worse on Tuesday started to get better weds but I went to drs, they told me to do a pregnancy test to rule out ectopic, I was absolutely gutted as I was only around 8dpo And didn’t want to do it as I felt I’d be disappointed or scared no matter what, I did one and there was a vvv faint line but I’m sure it was there, they got me in and did a blood hcg, I went home and did another on a cb early and again a vvvv faint line.
Next day I got the results back and pregnancy was negative, did a cb and negative. I was absolutely gutted and have been depressed ever since I was sure I saw those lines and now thinking I’m crazy. I’m now 11 dpo and waiting for af to come. Although it ruled out ectopic I just feel so defeated and upset plus the fact I had to go into hospital 2 days to rule out appendicitis. I still think might be cyst on my ovary they say in June as it was right ovary but I never got a scan as my inflammatory markers improved and my pain improved. I feel like a bloody medical mystery again. Just out of all of it I wish I hadn’t had to do those tests because I got my hopes up and dashed again.
Sorry for the rant lol just need to vent and I’ve been catching up with all of your progress

@HE88 I'm sorry it is bfn this morning. How many dpo are you now ? As long as you don't have AF you are not out dear 😘
