@Northernsoul90 it might have been a bit skewed with the alcohol anyway, some people can be affected. Will be good for you to get a quicker rise 🥳

I'm okay just plodding along here, haha xx

Ladies I’m confused with my OPKS. I have attached a pic. I was expecting a low still anyway but it looks fainter when every day it should be getting stronger? Any advice? Xx

Pic now attached xx

@VP91x feeling ok today so much better for having a good pamper. Getting ready for next cycle and trying to get these swimmers swimming again 🤞🏻 xx

@Firevie I'll attach mine. I never got a high reading before my peak. Keep testing every day. What CD are you?

Thank you everyone. I'm just stressing all the time. It swings in roundabouts. I have days where I'm really positive and then days where I feel like I have no hope. I almost wish I didn't get the tests and I'd be none the wiser 😞

@chloedancer897 ah thanks for your chart. Very informative. Didn’t realise they could dip and rise and basically fluctuate. I thought they’d keep rising every time. I’m on cd12. Premom isn’t predicting ovulation until cd33 but that seemed so long so @VP91x suggested starting earlier as pre MMC I have ovulated as early as cd17 on my shorter cycles xxx

@Firevie don't worry, your OPKs will fluctuate alot until LH starts to surge where you will see the progression 😊. It's very likely you'll ovulate sort of around your usual time of CD17. Keep going with them a couple times of day 🙌 xx

@Hayley19835 definitely got to keep positive with each cycle! Glad you felt good with your pamper x

@chloedancer897 totally normal to go through good and bad days, just don't get down over your AMH levels, technically you only need 12 year 😊 plently left over! Xx

@VP91x thanks so much! I had no idea fluctuation was normal 🙈 how often do you suggest I test and what time if day? Almost don’t want to ovulate /peak before cd21 as that’s when I will be back home with OH lol xxx

@Firevie haha, oh hopefully it all lines up with you bring back home with OH. It depends on how your day is, but if you're doing two a day maybe either 12/6pm or 2/8pm some sort of similar combo xx

@VP91x ah thanks so much hun! You really are the expert!!! Xxx

@Firevie I just spend far too much of my time peeing on sticks 🤣 hope you're still having a nice time with your family xx

@VP91x haha!!! Well at least you have all the knowledge xxx

Hey ladies. We went puppy shopping today, nice distraction. But my sister just sent a message into our family group that my brother in laws cousin is 18 weeks pregnant! I can't even look at the words! Why do I need to know that?? And why is it so easy for people to just get pregnant and sail through??
I know we don't know people's stories but it's just starting to get me down now. I know people are probably thinking why I haven't had a child yet, and I think I'm kidding myself that I'll even get my turn to do this. I feel like utter shite this afternoon.

Sorry for being a moany Minnie 😢😢 xx

@MichT4 oh lovely, it's so hard hearing news of other people being pregnant and that's all you want. You will get your time, we are all here ready to cheer you on when your time comes. Sending lots of hugs xx

@MichT4 I'm so sorry you are feeling upset, but it absolutely will be your turn and very soon I'm sure. Your perfect baby will be with you in the near future, there's no words that make this longing any easier when you are being faced with so many obstacles. You're strong and we are here to support you and as @Lollol86 we will be cheering when you get your BFP again ❤️ sending you so much love! X

@MichT4 - so sorry to hear how your feeling. You will become a mum someday soon I’m sure. It’s hard but we have to try and stay positive. You will get your rainbow baby. Stay strong x

@MichT4 Sending lots of love! It's so hard isn't it 😣 I hate it as well when people announce pregnancies to me that i really didn't need to know about. It will be your turn soon, don't lose hope ❤️. We are all here to support you and you are stronger then you think 💕 xx

I went to a bbq yesterday and was asked by 3 different people if we want children 🤦🏽‍♀️ I don't know if I'm just hyper sensitive but who asks those kind of personal questions without having a clue what they may be going through. It's awkward to answer - yes we do I was pregnant but now I'm not?! If you say yes you do want them they keep digging as well 'when do you think you will have them' etc.

@Northernsoul90 it really is an insensitive question, however before I had a mc it's something I would have probably asked. Now I've been through it I would never ask such a question. It's strange how life experiences change who you are.
I hope you are ok xx

SAME. I can't believe I used to ask couples that and even tease them about it jokingly - never again!

@MichT4 I have rubbish days like that too, my heart goes out to you. Won't be long till you're in that privileged position 💕

@Lollol86 @susiebluebell That's a really good point and so true that our experiences make us react and behave differently. I'm definitely guilty of asking people if they will have any more children in the past and now I cringe! I'm fine thank you 😊 I have to say I wasn't upset by it as such, just found it awkward and uncomfortable xx

@MichT4 aw sounds a bit insensitive of her to me, like thoughtless. Does anyone in your family group chat even know the bro in laws cousin? Hope you are ok ❤️

@Northernsoul90 I’d have been tempted to tell them the truth and watch them regret asking 😅

Ahhhh back to work full time from tomorrow 😩🙈 it’s going to kill me after all this time off 😂 no kids in this week though and I’m taking loads of food lol. X

@Northernsoul90 it is uncomfortable isn't it, glad you didn't feel upset though xx

@Pugprincess good luck for tomorrow ❤️

@MichT4 ahh sorry you are feeling low but you know that this feeling won't last forever. TTC feels like such a hopeless journey but you will get there, you know you can get pregnant and I already know that you will be a fab mum when the time comes. Is this the sister you went away? Does seem very insensitive to put that into a group chat if she knows what you're going through 😔 sending you lots of love and hugs x
