@Katao thanks love

@Vil10 this thread definitely does cheer me up & I need that right now which is why I had to hop back on & stop lurking! I see you're tracking your RHR, I started that on my Apple Watch the month before I got pregnant. I think there's definitely a connection with RHR & pregnancy. Mine dipped at 6&7DPO which is when I implanted, I also felt it aswel as thought AF was coming. I then got my positive at 9DPO & it kept rising. Fingers crossed yours is an implantation dip aswel🤞🏻 I know exactly when I conceived aswel because I used the CB ovulation sticks. Got my peak on the Sunday, so ovulated Monday, & we only DTD Sunday morning & Sunday night!

@Newbie0818 I heard the Oreo choc should definitely get you up the duff😉

@Missgoldilocks yes my OH is pretty cold, so to be honest I shouldn't expect anything less, but was still a kick in the teeth when I need him the most. It's honestly like these men are on a different planet sometimes 🤬

@SarahTTC2020 I hope you enjoy Edinburgh, go & relax & remember to drink shit loads😆

@Minster2012 ive been drinking loads of Pom juice too! Which one do you drink? I always buy the really expensive one from Tesco it's about £3.60🤦‍♀️ bloody expensive when it's gone in 2 days! But I thought the more expensive one would be more effective or am I wrong?

Chlo2701 · 16/09/2020 14:37

@Vil10 I noticed you posted on the RHR thread that I'm on. If you've got enough patience then scroll back to 4th Sept 12:16 as I posted that day, I put my RHR chart on & explained what happened

DKDK123 · 16/09/2020 17:00

Just catching up ladies, have taken a bit of a backstep from thinking about ttc this month, having one of those Im so over it months (probably doesn't help my son has been taking the terrible 2s to a new level and the thought of being pregnant while dealing with his tantrums is seeming less and less appealing each day!) Was hoping when I checked in to see lots of bfp but we've been running rather sparce in them lately, surely that means we're due a shitload of them coming up!

@Minster2012 sorry to hear about your results. Have a big cry, lots of choc wee glass of gin then straighten that crown and get started on building up that extra mm, its not a complete write off just a set back, you've got this! 💪

@Chlo2701 welcome back, tho I wish it was under better circumstances, sorry to hear about your m/c and your OH being so sucky in the time when you needed most support. You're definitely back in the right place if you need a support system and place to vent.

Franklydear · 16/09/2020 17:20

@Minster2012 yep, nada, tbf I waiting till after the weekend to test, I have some birthday wine in the fridge, I can drink till it's pink
On the ohs, the shittiest thing ever a couple of years ago, yes I hold a grudge, we were talking to very good friends, so no politeness as an excuse, she was asking about ds birth, 'yep, it went fine, all normal', I nearly fall over on shock, yes mate, only his heart stopped and he nearly died, I had to have counseling about it, it was so frightening... he claims not to remember it

Franklydear · 16/09/2020 17:22

@Chlo2701 sorry to hear about your loss, hugs

Vil10 · 16/09/2020 17:44

@Chlo2701 well I don't properly track it, I'm just intrigued when it gets to this point to see what it does, I need to track it properly so I can get a good pattern! It's weird you saying you felt implantation as you felt af was coming because that's exactly how I felt yesterday at 9dpo and again this morning and afternoon at 10dpo!!! Every time I went to the toilet I was expecting to have started but I haven't and this evening I've not felt it as much, praying it's implantation🤞🏼I got my peak Saturday and only DTD Saturday and Sunday!! I'll definitely try and find your post on the rhr thread Thankyou!x

lucyrp · 16/09/2020 17:45

Just got home and OH has hurt his back at work so was a perfect opportunity to jump on him while he lay on the bed moaning. Twice in one day is quite a lot for us at the moment 🤣

@Chlo2701 sorry to hear you're back with us but nice to hear from you again!

@Vil10 bane of my life doctors surgeries!

@Newbie0818 I know! Not getting too excited though. I'm on CD11 so if I don't see any movement in the next 10 days then il know I'm on a long cycle again!

Also on the OH thing mine was supposed to ring doctors to book his appointment today but guess what he hasn't 🙄

Minster2012 · 16/09/2020 19:20

@Franklydear OMG men. Oh yeah completely normal birth. Oh yeah. Errrrrr what????

@Chlo2701 YES I drink the POM one! My DH tried a bit of it once & said "that really does taste like soil!" I said that's bloody expensive soil!

@lucyrp yay but 🙄on the phone call

Franklydear · 16/09/2020 19:52

@Minster2012 I know, he claims not to remember, the machines started beeping, the midwife shouting out the door and the room full of people immediately after, ... errr, hard to forget, and that’s why we had the health visitor coming daily for 3 weeks and weekly for 3 more months, health centre after until the one year birthday... all was good in the end and scaped with no pnd, and obviously, ok to do it all again,I think, minus the drama, please

Franklydear · 16/09/2020 21:06

To up the tone a bit, I’ve been calculating dates, so... if everything would have been normal, af would have been due wed 23, so I will test Sunday 27th, just to be late and because is the first morning after af due that I don’t work @Juno231

Minster2012 · 16/09/2020 21:08

Men have a VERY selective memory @Franklydear WE MUST NOT forget that 😂😂definitely less please this time (other than you drama queen, which you aren't really 🤣!)

Minster2012 · 16/09/2020 21:33

Can I just say ladies, I'm so pleased for MN, I've had a really good cry today, I'm still feeling super unsupported, but massively better thanks to you lovely lot, DH hasn't asked how I am tonight or anything we've only talked about his work today & tonight & how we can sort the business which is v stressful but I've spent all my extra time helping him out running the business I need him to help me too. Not just him either, my best friend knew & said she couldn't talk earlier, only sent one message saying next week it will be better. I dunno if I was just hoping for more 🤷‍♀️I guess it's so hard doing things in secret.

I didn't sleep last night & DH could have noticed for the fact I know I accidentally woke him a few times tossing & turning. now upstairs watching tv having washed my hair & got wine to console me a couple of hours ago 🤗

Anyway, thank you ladies & like someone said earlier, 👑back on & onwards & upwards FOR US ALL xxx💕💜❤️💛🧡

blodyn91 · 16/09/2020 21:37

@minster2012 noooo I was hoping for some progress news off you 😫 keep eating them eggs and oreos and POM and kale and spinach and all the other stuff thats meant to work! 🤞🤞 All my fingers crossed for your next scan.

@vil10 Im not much help but my RHR showed me nothing, it even dropped below 50. Thing is the amount I exercised and slept affected it more. But from what I read and scrolled and obsessed over, high RHR is good 🤞 for your testing day!!!

Katao · 16/09/2020 22:16

Have you said anything to him @Minster2012? Maybe he needs a not very subtle nudge. Although that's not really the point is it? It's not the same if you have to ask for it. Hope you get a good night's sleep and feel better tomorrow x

LBee2020 · 17/09/2020 07:48

AF arrived this morning 4 days late (I'd already tested and knew I wasnt pregnant) but I can only assume it was the Pregnacare that messed my cycle up as I'm religiously 28/29 days and have never been this late before. Definitely swapping back to just folic acid.

Vil10 · 17/09/2020 09:11

So RHR dipped this morning when I woke up so decided to take an frer just so I knew for sure and bfn at 11dpo so deffo out, slight spotting too so guessing af will be here tomorrow or maybe Saturday, I wasn't as gutted as I thought I would be as it now means I can enjoy my holiday on Tuesday a lot more by drinking allll day long!! Onto cycle 5! Hope everyone else is okay this morning x

Franklydear · 17/09/2020 09:22

My nausea got up a notch, DH asked if I would do a test, I said not yet, why?I want to have some wine first... his face 🤯🙈

Minster2012 · 17/09/2020 09:35

Morning ladies
Down mood today for a lot of us, @Katao yes i had a chat (& a cry) with him when he Came to bed last night saying I needed his support too it's not fair I support him for everything & then I do all this on my own, both physically (remembering everything, taking everything, & going to the appointments) then emotionally as well, as well as doing EVERYTHING else for our lives too and he "just works" albeit hard cod i then help him too. He agreed it's not fair.

A shit night sleep ensued & now I've woken up bleeding. Great. I've left a message with the IVF clinic and can only hope it's just coz I had a dildo camera up there yesterday as she said my ovaries are doing nothing which they should be but it was Brian blood on two wipes, now red so that's not looking good for a nice juicy lining. I guess this might be abandoned now.

@Vil10 spotting for you too, damn it. Not a great Thursday

@LBee2020 onwards & upwards, I'd not heard great things about pregnacare so I didn't want to take it I use the seven seas one bit more iron & vit D in that I think.

@Franklydear I think you should test tbh, but why not ribs tonight first??? No rules on what day.

Right into work & wait for a call from clinic. Sanitary pads at the ready FFS. Don't know what this means for the £1900 spent 🤔

Franklydear · 17/09/2020 09:48

@Minster2012 I think I'll test after the drink, I am so tired that I am not lasting the 10 o'clock news🥺 but I probably will this weekend, I am scared it will be a bfn...
On your bleeding, ouch!

LBee2020 · 17/09/2020 10:13

Sorry to hear about the last couple of days for you @Minster. You are always so supportive of everyone on here; its definitely your turn to have some good news and support. I hope your DH has taken yesterday's chat on board!

Juno231 · 17/09/2020 11:25

@minster2012 big hugs! It's all a bit of a steaming pile of poo this isn't it! I hope the bleeding isn't too bad of a sign and that next week is still on the cards. I'm glad you got to chat with your OH and that he admitted to being in the wrong. Hopefully he'll step up a bit now - and in the mean time you've got us!

CD14 here and my temps are trolling me so I'm still not sure if I really did ovulate on Sunday. Got a 21% on an OPK today which is usually an indicator of OD coming in the next few days and I swear there was a tiny bit of EWCM this morning. Maybe it'll actually happen around CD16 again?

SarahTTC2020 · 17/09/2020 12:25

@Juno231 bloody temps! Just keep DTD and see what happens over the next few days I guess!

Vil10 · 17/09/2020 12:36

@Minster2012 glad that your OH agreed it's not fair, they need reminding sometimes! So sorry for the bleeding too, hopefully it is because of the dildo camera, I have my fingers crossed for you🤞🏼

Minster2012 · 17/09/2020 13:00

You see @Juno231 that's why I never temped because I think it's another thing to screw with you but I know it can really help ppl so I'm just no help (back in your box Minster!) 😂🤣

Thanks ladies, I am awaiting a call from the IVF clinic, I annoyingly missed a call at 12pm whilst on a phone call at work FFS so annoying then I have to call back at 1pm but it's not looking good, I've got cramps & ive had to put a pad on & under any other circumstance I would chalk it down as CD1 so I'm fully anticipating this one to be abandoned. I'm really deflated as tomorrow we go away for a weekend just DH & I & dogs to a lodge with a hot tub so if I have an AF that's shit for that too. But heydeho. We've got a picture for days like this right...or when your body is being a RIGHT FUCKING....

😂🤣

So ladies...let's have a laugh for the end of the week...what's the most out there sex thing you've been asked to do, that you've either done, or not done.

Mine (that I've done) is that an Ex of mine LOVED me walking on his back in stilettos. We worked together in an office which was v smart dress so I wore heels & he used to send me messages asking me to "walk all over him" in my pencil skirt & heels before stripping to just heels. It was sexy at first but then I'm a bit squeamish and I genuinely thought I was going to hurt him! It left marks, I can't stand someone crunching their knuckles so i was worried I would puncture a kidney 😂🤣😳or next fall off & knock myself out 🤔🙄
But it was sexy though.

I have been asked to wee on him too. He was kinda kinky. I didn't do that!
