Thank you @notyetamumbuttrying and no @Vil10 still crappy 😷 but my tips are shit loads of sleep, hot ginger, lemon and honey tea (fresh), and olbas oil. I swear by the tea though, always helps. Hope you feel better soon x

Minster2012 · 19/09/2020 20:15

@Newbie0818 I always make homemade honey lemon & ginger tea when feeling shit it helps me too sending healing hugs!

@Franklydear brilliant. These pics for you

@Vil10 glad he got down safe! Can't say it appeals to me but I guess it could be good! Weekend away is good now after a small health crisis for me today I had an adrenal crisis after not taking my steroids properly over the past few days as I've been focusing on taking 5 lots of the IVF drugs per day I've not been taking my life saving steroids at the right time (& possibly drinking too much last night & spending too much time in the hot tub 😂) sent me shaking, flaking out, being sick & needing my emergency injection of steroids. I should in theory then blue light myself to the nearest hospital for 24 hours of intravenous saline /steroid drip but instead I've been sleeping & drinking salted water v slowly & I've upped my steroids. I'm ok now don't worry, we've even just had sex! So all ok now I'm going to eat a bit of Chinese & chill out 🙄🙈

Love you @Minster2012, also had steak for dinner, with my wine...

Juno231 · 19/09/2020 21:30

@minster2012 jesus you know how to keep things entertaining! Take care of yourself ❤️, glad you're okay!

@vil10 your poor doggy, how the heck did he manage that?!

Had a temp rise so think I ovulated yesterday at CD15, same day as my peak OPK :). It somehow feels like the world's longest TWW already!

notyetamumbuttrying · 19/09/2020 21:45

@Vil10 ooh you'll love it! Send pics to make us jel!
@Minster2012 I love your pics 😂 queen of the pics/memes 👑
@Juno231 aw good you ovulated though! I'm cd7 so patiently waiting. Did it this morning to get the backed up ones out the way 😂 still force feeding him oranges and being fun police on the booze and fags! Needs must 😏

lucyrp · 19/09/2020 21:46

@Vil10 love the nails! Sorry to hear about doggo but glad they're feeling better now 🥰🥰

@KateColx you haven't missed a great deal on my part I'm still here! Holiday looks lush! Very jealous !

@Chlo2701 pretty sure my bum hole is pretty tight too. Although I can take a butt plug a dick is very hard to take 😭🤣

@Juno231 you temp don't you, any thoughts on my chart ?

lucyrp · 19/09/2020 21:48

Also sorry I haven't been on here much todag but been spending time with OH as I'm working tomorrow. We went for a walk up quite a high peak near us with OHs mum which was nice as I needed some strenuous exercise. Came back and we soaked in the bath together and OH washed my hair for me which was actually really intimate and lovely. Was really feeling the love. Especially when I had my eyes closed and he was washing my hair and said "why do I find you so attractive" and upon opening my eyes realising he was very turned on. Was one of those moments of real intimacy🥰 sounds so cringe but love it!

Juno231 · 19/09/2020 21:59

@lucyrp ah yes I saw your chart... Not sure why you felt it didn't look good? The only thing I'd note is that your temps on average seem a bit high to me - your FP temps are as high as a lot of women's LP temps 🤔

OP posts:
LBee2020 · 19/09/2020 22:01

Oooh @vil10 I hope pup is feeling better! My dopey lab is snoozing next to me and I'm not sure what I'd do if he got stung on the eye!

Nothing to report here ladies apart from a heavy AF and empty bottle of cava. Could be worse eh!?

lucyrp · 19/09/2020 22:07

@Juno231 it just seems to go up and down a lot already and I thought it should stay sort of plateaud until ovulation ?? Oh dear high temps in FP aren't a good sign are they... sure that's a symptom of PCOS ?... my temps the last few days have been 36.47, 36.57, 36.71 and 36.51 this is what my chart looked like last time I temoed just for reference

Okay just found this. What on earth ?! www.yonolabs.com

Juno231 · 19/09/2020 22:12

Maybe you just have a higher body temp in general? Or take your temps quite late? Actually are your fluctuations due to you taking your temp and different times some days?

I see lots of the up and down type charts on FF, some ladies do just seem to have more variation than others. Then again thinking about it if you're having peaks and troughs on femometer it would look like mountains and valleys on FF?

Minster2012 · 19/09/2020 22:14

@Juno231 I never make life easy for myself 😂
Yay for ovulation & TWW 🤗

@lucyrp that sounds AMAZING so glad you had such a lovely day & what OH said is beautiful - enjoy! You deserve it

@LBee2020 🍾🥂sounds good way to say up yours AF!

Why THANKYOU @notyetamumbuttrying and glad to hear you are still cutting him down!

lucyrp · 19/09/2020 22:14

@Juno231 would the fact that our bedroom gets very warm at night and we sleep with the window open add to high temps ? I have no idea.

lucyrp · 19/09/2020 22:19

@Minster2012 hope you're okay after your hectic day! Look after yourself 🥰 reallt feeling the love tonight which is nice ❤️

Vil10 · 20/09/2020 07:41

@Newbie0818 I drink hot lemon and honey too!! I thought it was helping but woke up this morning and my sore throat is back and now it's all in my head and sinuses😩

@Minster2012 he loves stuff like that, my family got it him for his 30th birthday! Ohhhh god!!! I hope you're okay?? Nothing like a bit of drama on a night away eh! Look after yourself!

@Juno321 well the other dog ran through a load of wasps and then was running round just being a dick and the one that got stung was just sat there watching, so they obviously preferred him!!

@notyetamumbuttrying ohhh don't worry about that I will do😂

@lucyrp Thankyou!! Also your night sounds so nice, I love stuff like that!! Glad you're feeling the love!

@LBee2020 he's a lot better today Thankyou!! Aw I love labs my mums got one!

Vil10 · 20/09/2020 08:39

Right girls have any of you had the lemsip day and night tablets or the beechams ones? I need something to get rid of those cold😩

Flittingaboutagain · 20/09/2020 08:43

Morning all,

I think the lemsip ones make me feel better quicker. Also I'm with you on the lemon and honey in hot water too. Also if I'm under the weather AT ALL I'm like a child and straight on the lucozade haha

Minster2012 · 20/09/2020 09:00

I've had both @Vil10 I think the lemsip max day & night ones are probably best, were you testing today? Poor sensible dog that got stung!

@Franklydear hope your steak & wine was lovely, good luck if you are testing this morning 🤞🏻🥰

Franklydear · 20/09/2020 09:37

@Vil10 hugs, being asthmatic means I am only allowed paracetamol outside of hospital, so cannot help, I still remember when they send me home after Labour with a gigantic tear, what do you mean I cannot have codamol at home? only under observation, not even cocodamol....
@Minster2012, how can I explain this, other than pure paranoia, I’ve decided to see if af comes in a few days and test next weekend, I only remember after going to the loo anyway.... I don’t feel it, but I don’t feel af coming either, here comes week horribilis...
Steak was ace, dh always makes it perfect....

notyetamumbuttrying · 20/09/2020 09:42

@Minster2012 yep gotta be done! If we can avoid costly invasive treatment by him living a healthy lifestyle then I'm all for it! I'm at my parents this weekend and I've sent him articles on how to improve his sperm and sent him screenshots of the foods to eat, I think he's getting the hint now 😂
How you doing today?

@Vil10 haha that's my girl 😉 bet you can't bloody wait now!

@lucyrp sounds like you had a lovely day and night Lucy 🥰 I'm glad you got to reconnect x

Vil10 · 20/09/2020 09:51

@Flittingaboutagain @Minster2012 I'll go with those ones then!! Hopefully they'll solve a miracle and make my cold disappear by tomorrow🙄 I hate being ill!!! @Minster2012 I were supposed to be but on CD3 now😒

@Franklydear ohhh no that must've been a right pain, literally!!

@notyetamumbuttrying I can't!! I'm just nervous about coughing on the plane!!

Katao · 20/09/2020 09:59

Just caught up. Hope you are having a nice weekend away @Minster2012 and feeling better.

Sorry about af @Vil10 and hope your doggy is doing ok after his stings.
@KateColx! Lovely to hear an update from you, glad you are feeling more relaxed about ttc and hope it pays off, enjoy the hols.
@DKDK123 hope your weekend away got more relaxing!
@Franklydear very belated happy birthday, hope you enjoyed the celebrations. You are right to leave the testing if you really want to.
@lucyrp sounds like you and OH are getting back on the same page 😃

Sorry if I missed anyone out, just had a quick catch up all together and my memory sucks!

Well I tested this morning and bfn 😥 no idea if I'm any dpo or not but cd30

Franklydear · 20/09/2020 10:07

@Katao thanks, birthday was great and very understated suits me just fine, I am really unsure about testing but will next week if af doesn’t show, how about you? anything happened?

lucyrp · 20/09/2020 10:16

@Vil10 same, and it's always lovely when its not all the time and then when it does happen makes it even better 🥰

@notyetamumbuttrying me too, I'm afraid it's quite difficult for us because OH is off on weekends and I'm normally working so don't get many days together ☹️ but was really nice🥰x

@Katao yes thank you! Can't wait to get home to him again tonight. And DS! He wasn't awake before I left for work this morning and has gone to his dads for the day! Sorry about your bfn!

Had a temp dip this morning on CD15 which I would hope suggests ovulation but my cb opks aren't picking up any peaks yet only highs ...
