Thanks ladies! It was the weeks indicator one I used, hopefully it’s just too early, this is exactly why my mother says you should wait until af is late lmao xxx

2020mission · 07/09/2020 13:15

Congratulations @Mrsi2020!

I've had spotting this morning and I'm in a terrible mood today 😂 so AF is definitely on the way for me unfortunately. I'm going to have a rethink at the end of the year on whether it's worth continuing with this for longer than a year. It's definitely taking its toll. Will give the next couple of months a go though just incase.

Hope there's more luck in September for the rest of you!

Mrsi2020 · 07/09/2020 13:33

@2020mission if there’s one thing I can promise you, it’s worth it. You’ll never regret a child you have, but you might regret one you don’t have. I know it’s out of our control to a certain extent but you can do this . Fingers crossed for a bfp soon for you xxx

I have just gotten this... I am buzzing!! Xxx

Digital BPF @Mrsi2020 🎉 HCG levels definitely climbing then!

@2020mission have you tried any fertility tests for peace of mind? We did some last month privately, I was only on TTC #2 but as I came off the pill over a year ago & suffer from bad periods, I just thought I’d get checked before we tried. And all came back good, so getting AF I’m fine with it as I know it more than likely will happen at some point 🤞🏼 It takes the pressure / worry off a bit which helps xx

BigLucy · 07/09/2020 15:48

Hi ladies - I am due on or around 20th September. I am 2dpo. What date do you think I should test x x. X

notyetamumbuttrying · 07/09/2020 19:18

@2020mission I feel like you too. It's a year this month, I'm due on next week and have pmt and period pain already so it's just inevitable now. It's really taking its toll! @Clapham4 is right about investigations though, I've had some bloods done which were normal. Dh will get SA result bk tomorrow hopefully and I'm gonna get day 3 bloods booked in next week. At least I feel like we're actually doing something about it now.
@BigLucy the earliest I would test is 11dpo but whatever you feel comfortable with is best.

Franklydear · 07/09/2020 20:12

@2020mission @notyetamumbuttrying I am getting there quick too, 10 months for us and not getting any younger, I am starting to doubt myself, but every so often I get a glimmer of hope...

2020mission · 07/09/2020 21:23

@notyetamumbuttrying @Franklydear we really do just need to try to keep positive for now. It's all we can do 🤞 💕 surely at least one of us will get there soon 😂

@Mrsi2020 true about it being worth it when it happens. If someone told me it would happen for definite, I'd be more patient and positive with keeping going.

Minster2012 · 07/09/2020 21:23

Hey ladies
Welcome @BigLucy I would say around 11dpo too if you can but many start earlier 10dpo

@notyetamumbuttrying 🤞🏻on the SA results for OH and rubbish fit you @2020mission for the spotting & moods

Congrats on the digital BFP @Mrsi2020 that's clear now!

@lucyrp how you feeling today? Is your AF still continuing?

I had a weird realisation today that my first womb lining scan is next weds. Next week. I saw my best friend, the only person IRL who knows what we are doing & she was like the 16th, that's next weds. All of a sudden it's actually next week?! 😳😬the embryo transfer could be the following week! Then of course cos her head goes so that means you could be testing & pregnant in 4 weeks 😂🙈🙄and i was like, yeah, or I could not be. But least it's actually like "in a time we can think of?" IYSWIM

Franklydear · 07/09/2020 21:35

@Minster2012 great things are round the corner now
@2020mission I would also like a deadline date, wouldn’t that be great?

Mrsi2020 · 07/09/2020 21:46

@Clapham4 hopefully!!!

@2020mission you’re right and it’s easier said than done. My first preg ended in a mc at 4.5mlnths and then my 2 pregs with my girls were horrendous, hyperemesis the whole time, low blood, was in hospital more than I was out of it and everyone thought I was mad having my second daughter but omg all I could think was they’re worth it.... fingers crossed it happens and soon for you.

Thanks @Minster2012!! I’m a dose of poo, now that’s happened I’m anxious about tomorrow’s progression 🙈 shocking! If I was you I would be really excited!!! At least you know something is happening for you, I hope it all goes well xxx

lucyrp · 07/09/2020 21:48

@Minster2012 yesss AF is definitely continuing today! Thank god !

Sorry ladies haven't caught up today yet !

Katao · 07/09/2020 22:05

Quiet on here today! Congratulations @Mrsi2020, I hope this pregnancy is easier for you 🥰
@2020mission sorry you feel like af is on the way.
@Mococo1 hi! Nice to see your name pop up. Howare you? Hope all is going well!
@lucyrp good to hear af is here, at leadt better than the cycle dragging on. Hopefully you get a normal length one next with a bfp at the end..
Welcome @BigLucy for a clear answer wait as near as you can to af due date but most of us test early!
@Minster2012 oh wow thatsso exciting! Youwill have a full bus of cheerleaders here!! 🤞

So after 6 days of high/peak opks I didn't even bother testing today! I give up 🙄

Minster2012 · 07/09/2020 22:19

@lucyrp yassss I'm sooo please get in for AF!! So weird right! I'm really hoping it will be a normal length cycle & you will be in line with me! So how bout @Vil10 where you at now?!!! 🤔are you with us in the AF crew?? Looks like Right do now we need @Franklydear's AF or BFP to join us & we'll be rocking for early October right ladies??!! Ooo what about @Missgoldilocks & @2020mission looks like you are in too, don't worry, we'll have October covered 🤗

@Mococo1 hello!! And @SmileyT you keeping an 👁on us 👀🙏🏻

@Mrsi2020 nah you'll be fine, 🤗🥰😘you try not to stress that little bean (though easier said than done I know xx)

@Katao fuck boy. Don't forget that right! Just keep riding it out. So to speak & not worry about the OPK it's about getting them swimmers to where they need to be.

notyetamumbuttrying · 07/09/2020 22:45

@Franklydear the glimmer of hopes last about 3 days for me now 😂
@2020mission one of us prob will, prob won't be me tho 😆
Thanks @Minster2012 and how exciting about the transfer date looming! Really hope everything goes well for you x
@lucyrp did I read that your period started? Yippee!!

Katao · 07/09/2020 22:52

Lol @Minster2012 ride it out 😂
It just doesn't give me much confidence there is an egg there to catch but hey ho who knows 🤷‍♀️

Mrsi2020 · 08/09/2020 07:32

What a cold miserable morning today 😭 well here in Ireland anyway lol

I expected more of a difference today.... these aren’t tweaked at all xxx

lucyrp · 08/09/2020 07:32

@Minster2012 I know right, I'm on CD3 already! I really hope its a normal length cycle 🙄 I need to check if I have any of the CB OPKs to use witj my monitor ready for CD10!

@notyetamumbuttrying yesss my period has started ! Whilst in work and I wasn't expecting it!🤣

So today I get to do the school run as I'm only working 1 day this week for some odd reason but hey ho 😂 I do miss doing the school run when I'm working all the time so nice to do it every so often but then I've also got a touch up on a tattoo I had last year at 12 o clock and I'm already nervous 😂

notyetamumbuttrying · 08/09/2020 08:06

Whoop, yay to a new cycle!! @lucyrp enjoy the school run and good luck with the tattoo touch up later. I just have another stressful day of work ahead of me, wish I could still be on holiday!

@Mrsi2020 hcg doubles every 48 hours so you'll see more of a difference tomorrow 😘

lucyrp · 08/09/2020 08:28

I tell you what ladies I reckon what's helped AF come may have been the fact I've been taking vitamin C the last week or so to help fight off this cold ? Could that have helped ??

2020mission · 08/09/2020 09:54

@Mrsi2020 best to space them out by a few days to see obvious progress. I was watching lines fail to get stronger with my last chemical and it's not nice. I have a horrible feeling when looking at FRER lines now, all they do is cause me to have anxiety as my only experience with them has always been negative. Hopefully yours will pick up soon though, I wouldn't be expecting a really strong line at 11 DPO as it's still early.

Speaking of which... I tested on a FRER today to confirm nothing is going on (allowing me to treat myself to a full caffeine coffee today and give up on all the faff of the seeds, etc) and it was whiter than white, so I'm definitely joining you ladies who are now trying in October. Will add the test date when AF finally appears. Would rather it would happen ASAP so that my weekend isn't spent feeling sore and miserable.

Looking at patterns, it does seem the only times I've got BFP I've been DTD every second day at most and hit the day after ovulation. This month we DTD every day in the fertile window up to my last peak OPK reading but didn't manage the day after which would be the actual day of ovulation, so I'm thinking that was a mistake.

2020mission · 08/09/2020 09:54

@lucyrp I need to up my vitamin C today then to try and get things on the way 👍🏼

Vil10 · 08/09/2020 10:01

@Minster2012 I'm 2dpo!! So nothing to report yet! So so happy that you're in the situation you're in now and like your friend said, could be testing and pregnant in 4 weeks!! How exciting!!

@lucyrp yasssss to proper period!!

@2020mission sorry for bfn but you seem in a good place and onto the next cycle!!

Well girls, my holiday looks like it's going to be cancelled as we're going to Greece😩 so far Tui have only cancelled holidays from 8th-22nd September and we go on the 22nd so it's not been cancelled yet but id rather them cancel it because all holidays in Cyprus and Turkey are getting booked up!! I'm half way through a 30 day challenge at the gym and lost 9lb so far so I'm not doing this and not having a holiday at the end of it😂😂

Mococo1 · 08/09/2020 12:07

@lucyrp yeh I think vit c is known to help bring on bleeding if eaten excessively!

lucyrp · 08/09/2020 12:17

@Vil10 yaassss hope it's done in like a couple of days then I can get onto my OPKs! Oh no hope you can go on holiday!

@Mococo1 well I didn't eat excessive amounts but I was take the tablets every day for about a week or so so I think that's helped a lot ! How are you doing ?
