@BellaBella84

Any tips for convincing my husband he's not "too tired" during my fertile window?! 🤦‍♀️
Hey Hun 👋🏽 I found last month we DTD too much too soon after AF so this cycle I pushed that back a little which seemed to work. X
beckyBP · 14/09/2020 13:31

🤞🏽 for you @Emmie12345 xxx

Emmie12345 · 14/09/2020 14:05

Digital one was negative !

Must have skipped a period I suppose ! Hmmmmm, good luck everybody xxx

Theawkwardblonde · 14/09/2020 14:38

So 5DPO and already going mad 😂 on a positive note GP this morning is sending me for bloods and husband for sperm analysis. His reaction was hilarious when I told him 😂
Only thing is have to wait until next month for my bloods due to needing to test at peak ovulation. Fingers crossed we don't need that next month but not holding out much hope!

Anyone had the tests done via GP to check fertility?

Emc16x · 14/09/2020 18:07

@Theawkwardblonde I have been for three rounds of bloods. I hate needles as it is. My cycles are so irregular so I think they’ve been testing on the wrong days. Today I got a devastating call that they’re no longer going to blood test and want me to wait until December to be referred to the fertility clinic! I don’t want to wait!

Been getting ewcm, positive tests from clear blue ovulation tests so no idea what’s happening.

Fingers crossed for you that you don’t have to and you fall pregnant this time around!!

Thinking of your hubby. Mine is mortified too! Hahaha xxx

@WantABunInTheOven
I didn't get a positive till the day of my missed period even with using early response kits.

Wishing you lots of luck

Theawkwardblonde · 14/09/2020 21:12

@Emc16x yeah I'm not a fan of needles either. That sucks you've got you wait till December. Here's hoping you get a BFP before then. I'm a tad nervous actually-it's starting to sink in that there may actually be something wrong with us 😳

turtola · 16/09/2020 09:28

Who else is on the 2ww and symptom spotting?! I'm 5dpo.... I swear my boobs are bigger - which also happened when I suspect I might've had a chemical but didn't test, couple of cycles ago... Probably wishful thinking Hmm

turtola · 16/09/2020 09:34

I know it's way too early for anything concrete but can't help myself 🙈

AKC88 · 16/09/2020 10:48

Me @turtola!! Although I'm only 2 DPO . Trying not to think about it yet (I say while trawling Mumsnet when I should be working Grin)

Theawkwardblonde · 16/09/2020 11:37

Me @turtola . I'm 7DPO and have the standard tender huge boobs and cramps. Had these with both chemicals, but have it with with periods too. Blooming nightmare 😂😂

Emc16x · 16/09/2020 12:13

Me too @turtola @Theawkwardblonde!! I’m not too sure I ovulated this time around though. I get a lot of my symptoms before AF too. What are we like!! I’ve got terrible ovulation pain (could be period cramps), had a splitting headache for three days and boobs are changing shape?! EWCM again today....so I’m very confused. But keeping everything crossed for you guys! Baby dust

SugarPlumRoar · 16/09/2020 12:39

Hi can I join in? I'm 8 dpo (I think) I'm not doing BBT so can't be sure of course. We started trying last year but due to circumstances stopped earlier this year for a few months.

Last month I started using my CB advanced fertility monitor again but have been more not trying but not preventing.

This month we've dtd several times leading up to and following my peak days. Last month I was pretty relaxed and not trying to symptom spot but this month I feel very different.

My boobs are heavy and sore and I'm exhausted which were my first signs with my DD however I remember getting them much closer to 14DPO at the time although my memory could be off as that was 6 years ago.

I've got a selection box of tests but I'm trying to resist the urge especially this early

turtola · 16/09/2020 17:56

@AKC88 ha what are we like! @Theawkwardblonde @Emc16x frustrating how similar the symptoms are to normal cycle changes. Which are such a pig to go through each month, now I come to think of it!! Why is it us girls get such a raw deal!

@SugarPlumRoar hi! Very impressed by your memory! I guess once you're at the stage of tracking ovulation etc then you're def ready for it to happen RIGHT NOW! I know that's how I felt once I did more than just 'not preventing' pregnancy.

MamaPheebz · 16/09/2020 18:16

How is everyone today? I got my static smiley on my opk today. Yay! Is tomorrow 1dpo or the day after?

beckyBP · 16/09/2020 21:03

So I know this sounds crazy but earlier I said to myself 'if only the universe could give me a sign to let me know if I was pregnant'
I just got home and there's an open 'congratulations on your baby boy' card on my hall stand. I said to my fiancé what's this and he was like a card that was sent to our address but obviously not for us.

Is that or is that not weird!!!!!

Emmie12345 · 16/09/2020 22:21

@beckyBP OMG yes !!!!

MamaPheebz · 16/09/2020 22:59

@beckyBP that’s so bizarre!

bombata2 · 17/09/2020 06:12

Haha the is so strange. Was there the baby's name on it already?! 🙃☺️

beckyBP · 17/09/2020 08:50

@bombata2 there wasn't but one of the names it was addressed to (their other child I assume) was our name if we have a girl x

Bizawit · 17/09/2020 09:27

@Orlandoflorida1 how are you getting on? Any sign of AF or BFP?

Theawkwardblonde · 17/09/2020 09:44

How are people doing? Nigh on break down with me this morning. Friend has announced her pregnancy news, turns out it was an accident (grr), and she is happily telling everyone it was an accident.
Also live in the North East so patiently waiting for the lockdown update for us today. It's anticipated no socialising with anyone outside of our household. I work in emergency services too so it's just more stress on top of TTC if we go into semi lockdown.
8DPO and I just know it's a negative. Standard pms signs etc.
Oh well 😞 sorry for the rant. Just feeling very fed up with things today.

Orlandoflorida1 · 17/09/2020 09:46

Hi @Bizawit AF arrived early! On CD 4 now!

Bizawit · 17/09/2020 09:49

Ahh sorry to hear AF came @Orlandoflorida1, but onwards and upwards to the next cycle!

I'm due today and have lots of craps and the usual AF symptoms so expecting her any minute. Baaa.

Bizawit · 17/09/2020 10:21

I meant *cramps!! (not 'craps') Blush Blush Blush
