@kirinm Sorry to heat you're poorly, wishing you a speedy recovery x

@Sansa87 You can definitely have a cocktail! Enjoy! x

stickytoffeepud1991 · 17/08/2020 19:29

Arghhhhh ladies I am definitely coming on. I can’t stop passing wind 😂 I’m irritable, easily annoyed and can’t stop thinking about food and what I can shove in my face next 😂 xx

MrsBtobe2020 · 17/08/2020 19:33

@kirinm sorry to hear you're not well, take care of yourself x

MrsB2019x · 17/08/2020 20:01

Aww @kirinm How awful, hope you are being well looked after! Hope you feel better soon x

@Sansa87 Absolutely 🍹

Sansa87 · 17/08/2020 20:28

Totally off topic, and a change from the ovulation results but it was a wonderful evening. Now going for a walk to burn off the 16oz ribeye

This is my face, hi!

You both look lovely! 🥰

Boc86 · 17/08/2020 21:03

Get well soon @kirinm
Aww lovely pic @Sansa87 and drink till it’s pink!

LeopardLover · 17/08/2020 21:15

@kirinm Oh my goodness - you poor thing! Wishing you a speedy recovery. Take care of yourself 💕

@SS123456 I'm sorry it's cycle 11 for you. 😔 Fingers crossed this is the one - you're still very young so it's certainly not too late. I hope you're feeling a bit better now? Maybe a cycle off would let you emotionally recharge?

@BuckleUp The cramping is just starting to ease off, so I'll look forward to the nausea then 🙈 Glad you have some anti-sickness meds to help. 💕 Thank you! Wishing you the same. 😊

@Tigger1987 Thank you! I am feeling so positive for you - it's understandable why a CB would be a BFN right now. Well done for waiting!

@89Ann Thanks, that's so sweet of you 😊 Hope OH is feeling better and you managed to DTD yesterday? Sounds to me like you caught it in time!

@stickytoffeepud2412 Thank you! Don't rule yourself out, these symptoms sound similar to mine 🙈

@MrsBtobe2020 Cheers 😊 Ugh, that sucks - sorry! Hopefully this cycle will finish for you soon so you can crack on again. X

@Sansa87 Oh you two are absolute CUTIES! Hope you enjoyed yourselves!

LT103 · 17/08/2020 22:36

Oh no @kirinm hope you’re on the mend soon

SS123456 · 17/08/2020 23:25

Oh no @kirinm 😱, get well real soon! 🤞🏻

Thank you @LeopardLover. I'm still feeling pretty down about it all but I'm sure I'll be ok in a few days. I'm just finding each month that it goes on even harder

Sansa87 · 18/08/2020 05:37

I need to win the lottery, this is far too early to be awake for work. You think I’d be used to it by now.

Can the 2ww be over now

89Ann · 18/08/2020 07:13

@Sansa87 I think our dates are probably quite similar, had my temp rise this morning so think ovulation was yesterday! 😬xx

Sansa87 · 18/08/2020 07:17

Ooh good luck @89Ann

I think I maybe ovulated Sunday? My test had gone negative by Sunday early evening.

Going to try my hardest not to symptom spot. I’m so tired today, and I’m like oooooh that’s a symptom, before having to remember I’m only 2dpo and it’s just because I’m too old to have a couple of drinks and a late one on a school night 😂xx

89Ann · 18/08/2020 08:11

@Sansa87 you too!

Lol I know it’s so hard not to symptom spot isn’t it, I hate wishing my life away but also hate the 2WW! X

89Ann · 18/08/2020 08:12

@kirinm I really hope you get well soon x

whambam89 · 18/08/2020 08:31

@Sansa87 @89Ann good luck in your TWW!

Has anyone looked into "the fertility diet" at all? Don't think I'm going to purchase the book but plenty of information online on it - trying to implement a few of the changes this month, cutting down on sugar, cutting out on alcohol, having full fat dairy, slow release carbs etc - I suppose it's all just standard "healthy eating" really but if it's going to help then I'm all for it!

stickytoffeepud1991 · 18/08/2020 15:16

Glad you enjoyed your night @Sansa87 you both look lovely!!

No @whambam89
im just doing joe WiCks HIIT and weights at the moment and watching what I eat 😂

So did another test as I’m due AF Thursday and it was a BFN. Sad it was a 20miu one though so not sure if it was less sensitive than the one I took Sunday but surely it should of picked it up if I was pregnant.

Feel a bit down but just got to wait for AF now and least I won’t be pregnant on holiday so can enjoy a few drinks 🍸 every cloud and all that! Xx

whambam89 · 18/08/2020 15:20

@stickytoffeepud1991 I need to start doing some exercise to be honest. I could do with losing a few pounds to get me into a "healthy" BMI.

When do you go away? Hopefully it's timed well with when you next ovulate. Sorry to hear you're still getting BFNs :(

stickytoffeepud1991 · 18/08/2020 15:27

@whambam89 I was exactly the same!! I put on 4 and a half stone last time and I don’t want to do it again!
We go away 5th September which is literally around my ovulation and by the time we get there and get settled I probably would of ovulated! We are stopping in a hotel on the 4th as we fly 6am the next day too so literally have the 1st/2nd and 3rd to try and hope for the best as whilst on hol wont be DTD at all with our DD around 😂it would be a miracle if managed it next month! Xx

whambam89 · 18/08/2020 15:35

@stickytoffeepud1991 I gained around 3 stone with DD but am still a stone up (and a bit) from what I was before I got pregnant with her. I'm only just out of the healthy range but losing a few pounds definitely won't do me any harm!

Hopefully you managed to DTD plenty and the sperm sticks around for a few days while you're away 😂

stickytoffeepud1991 · 19/08/2020 11:21

How is everyone??
AF still not here but can’t be arsed getting another BFN on a test 😂😭 xx

Sansa87 · 19/08/2020 11:26

Stop me being crazy

Going by clear blue i ovulated three/four days ago.

Last night all I could smell was cat wee (eventually saw one had a little wee in their cardboard house from b&m) and just went for a wee at work and my gums are bleeding.

Exactly my first two symptoms for my bfp in June.

Obvs impossible but bleh!

89Ann · 19/08/2020 11:42

Not impossible @Sansa87! Try and think positive, you weren’t expecting to get the opportunity this month so try and think of it as a bonus try 🤣 Easier said than done I know. I am still waiting for my gynae appointment following drama I had in cycle 1 which led my GP to be worried I had another cyst but I have come to the conclusion it was a chemical. Told myself I would not obsess this 2WW and now I have had a stitch like pain on left side low in abdomen which I had in cycle 1 🙄

@stickytoffeepud1991 I have my fingers crossed for you!

Xx

Sansa87 · 19/08/2020 11:44

That’s where I am atm... If I’d ovulated like normal a couple of days after high fertility I’d almost be convinced I was pregnant. 😂🙈

August might be pact might be madness part 2
89Ann · 19/08/2020 11:57

@Sansa87 do you remember when you spotted these symptoms last time? Did you log it anywhere?

I really wish I had done an early test in cycle 1, I didn't test until the day started AF 3 days late and then a CB digi which was BFN. God this two weeks is going to draggggggg
