@candycrush2298 I don't think the appointment will really help me much, I won't hear the heartbeat or see the baby but it will be good to reach the milestone! Everyone I know who is pregnant are getting private scans so I wonder if I should too, but there's only one place to go around here and its £70 and 40 mins away.. The scan in the hospital is 5 miles away and free... I just have to wait another 5+ weeks for it aha.

Symptoms come and go to be honest, but I felt pretty bad this morning. Seem alright as long as I remember to eat often!

Thanks @namechangettc

Kaybobx · 10/09/2020 16:58

@Welliedays oh wow! How are you 7 weeks already?! Thats gone so fast.

@Elakiya haha what you like! My temp dropped again this morning, i know it means nothing at this stage but Dr Googles charts that have dropped dpo4 and 6 have not ended in pregnancy 😢

@candycrush2298 did your bracelet have anything interesting to say this morning? Im sure my temps were alot higher with soy

Welliedays · 10/09/2020 16:59

Ahaha @kaybobx I feel its going so so so slowly!!

Elakiya · 10/09/2020 17:32

@candycrush2298 Yh I agree with you. I wonder if because we haven't had success whether we just believe it will never happen. My husband is very against me using OPK's for this reason. He thinks that because I use opks and spend half my life on mumsnet hahaha that I now feel like I am putting in full effort and threfore it upsets me more when I am unsucessful each month. He thinks we should just do SMEP (Yes he knows what it is... the man seems well versed in trying to conceive) but not test until one of the apps tell me I'm late.

My opinion is screw him lol!

@Kaybobx wonder why you're temps dropping. You sure you're not just rolling around in your sleep too much? I mean I slept on one side of the bed and woke up on the other side so I'd be pretty bad at temping

@snapple21 I hadn't realised you were talking about a thermometer when you said its dead I washed it with bed sheets I was mortified I thought you'd washed your pet!

@Welliedays When is your due date? Is it late April/May. Time is flying by :)

@NamechangeTTC If it makes you feel any better, I worked with a lady who'd been trying to conceive for 2 years. She was put on clomid and she got pregnant on the 4th month. But she said that when she got pregnant she was very shocked because she was spotting 1 to 2 days before AF had arrived but experienced no spotting at ovulation or at implantation. She was pregnant.

Kaybobx · 10/09/2020 17:40

@Elakiya im confident it's because ive not ovulated this cycle. I vag temp now so can't be for any reason to do with waking up etc

candycrush2298 · 10/09/2020 17:49

@NamechangeTTC whahahahaha!!! Maybe its just your bowels playing tricks on you.

@Welliedays yeah I guess its more of like a tick box exercise rather than anything useful. 5 more weeks to the scan 🙈 golly that feels like an eternity away lol!!! Cant believe time is going by so quickly though.

At least the symptoms haven't been constantly bad i think you're pretty lucky hahaha.

@Kaybobx was it a big drop or just a normal fluctuation? It got really cold here by us last night and I still slept with the windows wide open so woke up with a huge drop in my temp from yesterday to today lol whoops will be closing the windows tonight lol!!! I guess that's all that was interesting that happened with only 2 days of data its pretty bland lol. Some things went up like my pulse rate and breathing rate I guess my body was trying to warm me up 😂😂😂 must have not got a hot flash last night from the last night of soy 🤣🤣🤣
As for your Dr Google charts all I can is I hope they are wrong.
How are you feeling about your appointment on Saturday?

@Elakiya yeah I mean I wonder if because we keep getting AF its like it feels like its out of our reach because we haven't gotten it yet but at the same time we still secretly keep hope which is why we test.
Lol men don't understand the app wouldn't be accurate if we don't use opks, but I can see why he thinks like that - because men don't really tend to stress about it so they just assume we shouldn't either they don't realise its our bodies that go through hormonal changes every month regardless of if we pregnant or not. If only they could live a cycle in our shoes hahahaa.
I am really impressed by how much knowledge your hubby has on conception its truly profound.

@Kaybobx when did you start vag temping did I completely miss this???

OP posts:
candycrush2298 · 10/09/2020 17:51

@Kaybobx lol sorry for tagging you so many times in a row. Vag temps are still affected by bad nights sleep if you wake up your core temp rises regardless of whats happening around you. It still needs to be consecutive sleep at the same time etc. The only things that don't impact vag temping are external factors like fans on, Windows open, colder, hotter etc. But internal factors are still impact vag temps

Welliedays · 10/09/2020 17:54

@elakiya, yup, end of April.. I'm sure it will come round quick!

@candycrush2298 I think I've just got used to a constant level of tiredness and feeling sick, so I now only notice it when it gets worse aha. Today has probably been the worst for a few days now. I'm still struggling to eat anything as I only feel like potatoes, bread and cereal. Oh and water to drink, can't face anything else. So yeh, it's not ideal, but I guess it's my new normal now, so I've just got used to it!

candycrush2298 · 10/09/2020 17:59

@Welliedays hahahahaha baby wants what baby wants!! If that's all you can stomach its better than not eating at all. And water is the best thing you can have so no problems there. I would miss my tea though I won't lie lol!!

@Elakiya ahh shame it’s neg, I also know I’m not pg and knew it before my temp dropped

@Welliedays aww 7 weeks!!

Kaybobx · 10/09/2020 18:09

@candycrush2298 it dropped to the coverline! I started vag temping after ovulation when i didn't think i was ovulating so wanted to see if it made a difference 🤣

I definitely had hot flashes in my sleep from my temps lol.

Feel fine about my hospital appointment. They won't tell me anything on the day and im pretty used to having things up my vag these last few months so sure it will be fine hahahaha

candycrush2298 · 10/09/2020 18:20

@Kaybobx DO NOT switch in the middle of a cycle thats why your temps are all messed up. Hun, vag temps run much higher than oral temps in general. Are you sure you did ovulate? Sorry to say this I feel awful but what if you haven't ovulated and your temps are higher because you switched to vaginally?

I am like 1million percent stressing for you right now. Like I am beyond freaking out

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 10/09/2020 18:30

@candycrush2298 i didnt start vag temping until 2dpo dont worry 🤣 my first vag temp i did aswell as more normal thermometer and they weren't that different to be honest. I still don't think i ovulated though because of all those peaks
