@Sansa87 I can imagine. You just need to try your best to relax and focus on staying positive. These first few weeks will fly by hopefully 😊😊😊

@MrsB2019x I've just tested again and still a flashing smiley! Going to give DTD a miss tonight and just stick to every other night while we're a bit all over the place, had quite a bit of EWCM today so hopefully my static is on it's way! 🤞

MrsB2019x · 30/08/2020 18:36

@whambam89 Oooh hopefully will be soon then! Ovia puts my AF as 11th Sept and Clue thinks 13th. Leaning more towards Clue tbh.

@Sansa87 That’s a beautiful line 🥰

whambam89 · 30/08/2020 21:59

@MrsB2019x I've actually downloaded clue tonight and it seems to think that I'll ovulate Tuesday so will get my peak tomorrow - let's see how accurate it is! Has your LP changed at all since your ectopic? I never tracked beforehand so not sure if mine has always been slightly shorter or not!

BabyH88 · 30/08/2020 22:10

So ladies in need of a bit of advice. I was due AF yesterday and have had the worst cramps for a few days now a lot worse than when I normally get AF. I thought she had arrived yesterday but I have only had light spotting just when I wipe, do you think it could be a light period or something else? The cramps and bloating are the worst and I have felt nauseous for a about 4 days now... this is so frustrating.
Anyone had experience of this?

MrsB2019x · 30/08/2020 22:11

@whambam89 Not sure about LP specifically but AF has definitely got longer - I was roughly 27 days but after the ectopic I’m now at 29/30 days. Clue is predicting 31 days this month 😒

whambam89 · 30/08/2020 22:42

@BabyH88 have you tested?

whambam89 · 30/08/2020 22:43

@MrsB2019x it's so frustrating isn't it! My cycles definitely aren't as they were before the methotrexate which I think is making it harder to get pregnant. I know in the grand scheme of things that being on our 4th cycle since being allowed to try again isn't that long but at the same time I feel like it's never going to happen. It can just be so deflating

BabyH88 · 30/08/2020 22:57

@whambam89 I tested on Thursday and got a BFN.

MrsB2019x · 30/08/2020 23:05

@BabyH88 I’d definitely test again, everything crossed for you!

@whambam89 So annoying isn’t it. I guess yeah it’s only been that long since, but plus 3 months of not being able to try at all, plus however long you were trying before that. Excluding the time we couldn’t try because of methotrexate it’s been 10 months. Hope you get your peak tomorrow!

BabyH88 · 30/08/2020 23:23

@MrsB2019x ok do you think I should wait to see what happens with the spotting? This whole TTC thing is emotionally draining - I have cried over AF now have a little hope but don't want to get my hopes up incase it is just AF. 😭

MrsB2019x · 30/08/2020 23:27

@BabyH88 Do you track ovulation? Do you think maybe you ovulated later & it could be implantation? Totally understand feeling emotionally drained, it is exhausting 💙

BabyH88 · 30/08/2020 23:56

@MrsB2019x no I don't track ovulation so I have no idea lol x

MrsB2019x · 31/08/2020 00:54

@BabyH88 I’d definitely test in the morning if you have one to hand x

BabyH88 · 31/08/2020 01:06

@MrsB2019x ok thank you for responding to my message xx

whambam89 · 31/08/2020 07:27

@MrsB2019x yep we're coming up to 11 months as well since we started trying! ANOTHER flashing smiley this morning

kirinm · 31/08/2020 08:23

Morning, I don't really know what's going on with my cycle. I think my period is due tomorrow although because I bled two weeks ago I'm not sure if it will arrive or not. Still not 100% on whether we will try this month. Tbh, I'm scared of feeling unwell again!

Sansa87 · 31/08/2020 08:54

Sending lots of love to you @kirinm ❤️ You’ve been in my thoughts xxx

claireb707 · 31/08/2020 09:39

Still not sure if I've ovulated or not, I've now had 3 separate peaks this cycle but my temps haven't risen 😩

Weather is glorious today. Our friends are leaving today, we're still here till Thursday

@claireb707 not sure what's going on with us all this month! I had loads of EWCM this morning but still no peak and I'm CD18 today! Only got 3 clearblue sticks left as well 🤦🏻‍♀️ might have to order some cheapies just in case I run out!

MrsB2019x · 31/08/2020 11:09

What’s in the air this month?! I have ran out of OPK’s now and not going to bother ordering anymore so hope the peak I had was the real one 😂

How are you doing now @kirinm?

Have you tested this morning @BabyH88?

BabyH88 · 31/08/2020 11:31

@MrsB2019x no as I didn't have any FRER so have ordered some they should come today or tomorrow. The spotting/light period has stopped which is weird for me as it is usually heavy.

MrsB2019x · 31/08/2020 12:20

@BabyH88 Sounds promising, keep us posted 🤞

BabyH88 · 31/08/2020 12:25

@MrsB2019x I will let you know as soon as I test thank you for the support xx

LT103 · 31/08/2020 12:48

This is a crazy month for everyone’s cycle.
I got my peak a week late and temp rose like I ovulated. But now 7/8 dpo and last 3 days temp fallen right down. No idea what’s happening. I usually spot a few days before af and none yet so I’ll take that as a good sign but no idea if I even ovulated now
