@Sansa87 I really hope it all turns out ok for you, try and enjoy your week away x

LT103 · 07/09/2020 19:30

@claireb707 temps look good. Fingers crossed for you!!

@Sansa87 try to relax and enjoy your time away. Hopefully the cramps settle a bit for you

claireb707 · 07/09/2020 20:10

I'm 11dpo (I think) and I don't have sore boobs which I have had from about 7dpo the last4 cycles. Still not 100% sure I ovulated but temps are suggesting I did. Will see what happens in next few days

@claireb707 I'm feeling hopeful for you!

Morning girls, how is everyone.

I ache this morning. There’s a games room in this cottage so I spent hours playing table tennis yesterday 😅

Mentally I’m feeling quite good at the mo. I have no symptoms at all this morning, & woke up at 6 instead of 4 which I’d been doing all through the pregnancy.

I think I emotionally protected myself incase this happened again, so it’s not devastating me as much atm, though I know me, & know this means it will absolutely come out unexpectedly in loud sobs on a bathroom floor within the next year.

I’m going to call the gp on Friday to get the referral to the EPU (that alone might make it seem more real) I think where we didn’t wait a cycle, it almost feels like the same pregnancy in June/July, just prolonged.

That games room looks amazing @Sansa87! Glad you are starting to relax a bit more ☺️ Makes sense to protect yourself too.

I am 9dpo today, boobs are killing and back hurts. AF due on Saturday. Something is telling me I’m out this month, not sure why. Convinced myself I’m barren I think 😅

whambam89 · 08/09/2020 09:05

@Sansa87 the games room looks amazing, glad you're managing to enjoy yourself a little and completely get what you're saying about protecting yourself.

@MrsB2019x do you usually have sore boobs this late on? When do you think you'll test?

I'm 5dpo today and not tempted yet but I know that will change by 9dpo 😂 first day of my new job and currently child free so enjoying a coffee and some toast before I have to go and make myself look presentable! Only in 5 hours today so not too bad and means I get to pick DD up from nursery which I won't usually be able to do.

MrsB2019x · 08/09/2020 09:17

@whambam89 I looked over my notes from last month and it did say they were a bit tender last month but not really that noticeable. I can feel them all the time atm 😂 I caved and tested this morning on an IC, BFN. Good luck for the new job! 🙌

whambam89 · 08/09/2020 09:27

@MrsB2019x I love how you were absolutely not going to test until the weekend and only made it to Tuesday... I would definitely do the same 😂

Thank you! Hopefully it'll go quickly, as much as I want to put DD on eBay multiple times a week, I feel a little lost without her!

AKC88 · 08/09/2020 10:27

I'm on CD19 and no positive OPK yet, I wonder if I've missed it as I went away Saturday night and forgot to bring them with me. I usually ovulate CD 14 or 15 so my app is saying I'm 4 DPO but I'm so unclear this month! @whambam89 I think we might be on a similar timeline if I did miss it!

I have horrible cramps this morning tummy and back, like af is coming but would be super early if it did.

@Sansa87 I hope you manage to enjoy your break!

MrsB2019x · 08/09/2020 11:33

@whambam89 I know I’m a terrible pact member 😂

stickytoffeepud1991 · 08/09/2020 21:17

Hi ladies!! 💓
Bit MIA only cause on hol. However checked in and they given us upgraded room so it’s a double apartment which means we have 2 rooms which means we have baby danced Saturday and yesterday, ovia says due to ovulate Saturday so will aim to do it tomorrow then Saturday!! Feel like this is fate 😂 hope everyone is alright! Xx

Sansa87 · 09/09/2020 12:53

Hey girls.

So glad that I came on holiday, it’s been so much fun.

Still having bad period pains, & brown discharge/blood. However my boobs have started hurting a lot, & I’m feeling a tiny bit nauseous.

Oh has said we will take another test on Saturday, and go from there.

I have no idea what’s happening with my body.

whambam89 · 09/09/2020 13:46

@Sansa87 I wonder if it's got something to do with you not having a period in between? So your body is just getting rid of old blood? Symptoms sound positive though! Glad you're having a nice time x

Sansa87 · 09/09/2020 13:52

Thanks @whambam89 I’m still not optimistic, but maybe a little more than I was at the weekend.

kirinm · 09/09/2020 15:10

Symptoms sound positive Sansa especially as you're getting closer to 6 weeks - my symptoms start early but they do ramp up around 6 weeks.
Fingers crossed the spotting is absolutely nothing to worry about.

I am in my fertile week. Not sure we are going to try this month. Things have been very stressed at home for various reasons. Going to speak to DP again tonight and see what he thinks. I wouldn't mind taking a month off but I am 6 months away from 43 so we really don't have the time to mess around.

whambam89 · 09/09/2020 15:39

@kirinm maybe a relaxed approach this month would be a good idea, might do you both good!

kirinm · 09/09/2020 15:44

@whambam89 it probably would be but it's hard when you are pretty sure when you ovulate. I can't imagine casually letting the next few days go by!

whambam89 · 09/09/2020 18:44

@kirinm very true!

6dpo for me and feeling light cramps / lower back pain which I've had previously around this point so going to guess I'm out for this month already

MrsB2019x · 09/09/2020 19:18

Hope you have a lovely time @stickytoffeepud1991! Glad you managed to get some BD in 😁

@Sansa87 The symptoms are sounding good for you 🤞

@whambam89 6DPO is so early to be ruling yourself out, it doesn’t help that AF and early preg symptoms are pretty much exactly the same!

whambam89 · 09/09/2020 20:21

@MrsB2019x how are you getting on? Tested again? 😂

MrsB2019x · 09/09/2020 22:20

@whambam89 You don’t even know me and yet know me too well 👀 BFN this morning x

whambam89 · 09/09/2020 22:31

@MrsB2019x 10dpo is still early! I would tell you to try again tomorrow but I'm sure you will be doing anyway haha. I've got no tests in so I'm really trying to hold out!

Sansa87 · 09/09/2020 23:30

We really are all the worst when it comes to the pact 😂

10dpo is still very early x

MrsB2019x · 10/09/2020 07:19

@whambam89 @Sansa87 Thing is if these ‘symptoms’ I’ve been having were real then surely I would have had even a squinter by now?
