@MimiArm I thought it was prescription only? And something needs to happen. 🤣

I don't know- entering 2021 a man down. Who knew it?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

MimiArm · 22/12/2020 20:04

@paintfairy I thought that too, but you can buy it online from clinics where online doctor prescribes it. The issue is that you're supposed to be scanned when on it (at least for first cycle) to see what it's doing, etc. But you can buy if you so wish (I almost did when I was struggling with the fertility clinic).

I know, can you believe! I'll be hanging around here anyways if that's ok, as I want to see how you all go ☺️

paintfairy · 22/12/2020 20:07

@MimiArm of course its OK! I'd be upset if you didn't. We want to know how things are coming along! Best Christmas present ever for you though, at least its a good end to a shitty year. (Aside your wedding of course).

Interesting! Didn't know that. Well, I might resort to it if the drs can't manage to get a blood test and a referral right. 🙄

MrsTwentyEight · 22/12/2020 22:18

I'm so happy for you @MimiArm !! This is the best news I've heard all day. Best end to 2020 for you and the best Christmas present! Please do stay with us. Oh I hope you've started the good luck streak for the rest of us

Juno231 · 23/12/2020 00:44

@MimiArm definitely stay! I'd love to hear all about your symptoms, baby shopping etc 😁

@Juno231 @MrsTwentyEight @paintfairy

Well, if you all insist I stay, then I guess I better stay 🤷‍♀️ 😁

How is everyone today? I finished up in work yesterday and I'm so glad as the last 6 weeks have been so hectic and stressful. I'm really looking forward to getting a week off to relax. I did the digital CB this morning and "pregnant 1-2 weeks". I think that just means 2 weeks from conception, so 4 weeks technically. I was exhausted last night but I could not sleep at all. My body was tired but my mind was racing. I think it's sank in a bit more today and feels more real but I think I'll be quite anxious until the scan.

I really hope I've started the good luck in this thread - I will be so happy to hear when you all catch.

Funny thing is, despite the cliche of what they say, we DTD a lot this month but I wasn't really thinking about it after that. I took off the Fitbit last month as it was pissing me off, and I was so busy with work that I didn't even know what cycle day I was on for the most part!

paintfairy · 23/12/2020 17:42

@MimiArm freezing and wet! Bloody awful weather here. And my roof is leaking! 😡

Yeah I think not tracking is meant to be better. Not that I can not when I need blood tests. So I've had to anyway! Despite the dr telling me to relax. 🙄 AF due Monday for me. My spotting stopped after 3 days (following O) so I'm waiting for the next phase to begin!

I think it's natural to be anxious. I think I'd be awful. I'm a right stress head anyway. But it's great you have time off now, you can relax. I'm working tomorrow but then off until New year. Although I'm wfh so I'm not sure it counts really. They won't expect much tomorrow.

MrsTwentyEight · 24/12/2020 08:50

@MimiArm Yayy!
Ah yes I definitely need to not try. Drive myself crazy testing and this month I was so confident but cruel twist ...AF late but stark white BFNs ☹️ Must have ovulated much much later (if I did) ...in which case didn't even DTD then 😞

paintfairy · 24/12/2020 09:33

@MrsTwentyEight 🤣 Got to love our bodies! Maybe it's only slightly late and might come later? We dtd this morning on waking and that was a mistake. Bedding in the wash. Apparently spotting has commenced! 🙄

MrsTwentyEight · 24/12/2020 20:03

@paintfairy well you're absolutely right - spotting today. Must have OV-Ed very late last month on CD24 (I'm assuming a 14 day LP but how do I even know....)

Ahh but hey at least you had fun first thing 😉

Merry Christmas to all you lovely ladies!

paintfairy · 24/12/2020 20:27

@MrsTwentyEight @Juno231 @MimiArm Merry Christmas to you all!

MimiArm · 24/12/2020 20:31

@paintfairy @MrsTwentyEight @Juno231

Merry Christmas everyone!

Juno231 · 24/12/2020 22:19

Merry Christmas girls! Sorry I've been quiet - I'm cd 4 and just not feeling it atm.. Promise I'll get back in the swing of it by Monday as FW starts again!

@paintfairy when is AF due?

OP posts:
paintfairy · 24/12/2020 23:05

@Juno231 the beginning of the cycle i think is the hardest. I struggle. AF due Monday for me.

MrsTwentyEight · 25/12/2020 10:31

Ahh @Juno231 don't be down. 2021 will be our year :)

My AF is here full blown on Xmas day and I'm telling myself it will be easy to remember my LMP if it happens next month (you gotta remain hopeful 🥲🎅🏼 )

At least I'm getting as tipsy as I like today 🤣 AF has ruined my spirits as I hate cooking when she's around 😞 But hey you don't always get a lockdown xmas! Also we are healthy and safe in 2020 and that's more than some people have had so I'm all here to be grateful 🙏🏾

paintfairy · 25/12/2020 10:52

@MrsTwentyEight Terrible timing! I always feel crap the first day. The year before last it happened right before dinner on Xmas day whilst I was at DHs family's house. 🙄 But like you say- you can drink and not feel guilty! 🤣 Drinks all round! (Sorry @MimiArm 😆)

paintfairy · 26/12/2020 09:55

So- got terrible stomach pains last night. Stomach really unhappy. Guessing I've eaten something that didn't agree, as we went to families house for dinner. Only had a dinner though (can't see it being that?) but I did have cheesecake after (DH didn't) so he's blaming that (but of course won't text his family and ask if everyone is OK?). DH then said couldn't be pregnant and I was like- erm no. You get nausea but not like full on pains like this. I've never had a stomach bug in my life though and only food poisoning once. I'm pretty hardy. So obviously now I'm googling can a stomach bug be pregnancy and guess what? There are examples! 🤣🤣🤣 Step away from Google........

Anyway- not great timing and it puts me off eating at people's houses again!

paintfairy · 26/12/2020 13:14

Apparently everyone else is OK? 🤔
I did eat different dessert though......

Juno231 · 26/12/2020 15:04

@paintfairy if you don't normally eat lots of dairy maybe the cheesecake triggered a bit of lactose intolerance?

@MrsTwentyEight I'm sorry AF arrived :( what shitty timing.

I'm cd7 and just like last cycle I'm still spotting. Planning on starting dtd every other day as of cd10. Also thinking my new year diet will start on Monday 😅

OP posts:
paintfairy · 26/12/2020 15:43

@Juno231 I love cheesecake and often have it. So god knows. Unless the baileys wasn't ok.

MrsTwentyEight · 27/12/2020 19:07

How is everyone ?
@paintfairy any updates ?

paintfairy · 27/12/2020 19:11

@MrsTwentyEight AF due tomorrow. Felt a bit off still this morning, but not too bad since. Spotting as usual. 🙄

MrsTwentyEight · 27/12/2020 19:31

@paintfairy hope she doesn't show!
CD3 here. I want to forget TTC this month and focus on diet and exercise which will prob lower my success rate anyway but I've stopped caring now 😞 Will just DTD every few days and try to forget it like @MimiArm advised!

paintfairy · 27/12/2020 19:34

@MrsTwentyEight I really need to eat better! Thought I might try seven seas vits this month and evening primrose oil. But I can't until I've had my body test Wednesday. I also bought some conceive plus lube.

paintfairy · 27/12/2020 19:34

Blood test! Stupid phone.
