@Minster2012 don't worry, I'll disconnect all other media, but let's not kid ourselves, I need you (and you me and you know it)
I have a smear test next week, usually is with my asthma nurse, so I'll have a chat,
I am still the same, tight tummy, sore boobs, back pain, and nausea but that could be because of the phlegm from the cold

Clairey844 · 25/09/2020 20:58

@Minster2012 I have a FRER left and loads of ICs but looks like they'll be gathering dust for another month. Just had pink when I wiped so FFS looks like I'm out again.

I'm stupidly superstitious and I'm now convinced it's because I came back on here 🤦🏻‍♀️ my rational brain knows that's not even possible but my crazy side is like it's your fault for talking about it and admitting any smidgen of hope.

Anyway, sorry @Minster2012 I feel I've posted my whole moan to you.

This whole TTC is so all consuming and I actually don't know how to switch off from it completely. Like I can say fuck it and go with the flow but how do you stop your brain still knowing you're likely to be ovulating, spotting every symptom going etc.

Sorry-I am massively off loading on here tonight.

Think I just need to go to bed and put my big girl pants on tomorrow and deal with whatever happens

Minster2012 · 25/09/2020 21:18

Awwww no @Clairey844 dong be so hard on yourself, for either hoping, talking or wanting it. Whether you are superstitious or not it's good to have An outlet, and I don't mind at all getting your moans 🤗😘. You actually cannot turn your brain off, it's impossible. I watch shitty tv as my way of turning my brain off, it's the only time my brain actually just goes "la la la la la" and doesn't obsess over anything. Stuff like made in Chelsea or binge watching married at first sight Australia or crap like that really!

@Franklydear good plan. Chat to the woman staring at your foof! Wait...can a cold cause a tight tummy? I need a permanent cold then so then my tummy will be nice and tight??? Like a porn star?? So pleased you aren't gonna leave me. I WOULD FIND YOU (jokes....maybe 🤔)

SarahTTC2020 · 25/09/2020 21:25

Ah @Minster2012 no I haven't had a gin! Had a massive Indian and now too stuffed for a drink 😆
@DKDK123 so sorry to hear that, and also that your DH does not have a tactful way of dealing with it!
@minster2012 I am definitely here for your TWW 🙌 we'll all be willing you on! You'll be drinking loads of pom ass juice? I ate Oreo chocolate yesterday... Tastes much better

Minster2012 · 25/09/2020 21:37

@SarahTTC2020 I don't understand. Too full for gin 🤔😂honestly I've been drinking bloody Pom ass juice since may now, (I'm not actually joking) a glass a day, (alright maybe 3/4 of a glass as it tastes like earth) the most fricking expensive habit I might as well snort crack when I told DH the price he thought it was more expensive than the IVF drugs 😂so maybe that's what's built the lining up in the last week 🤷‍♀️

SarahTTC2020 · 25/09/2020 21:46

@Minster2012 haha you know when you're so full you can't fit anything else in? 🤣
Well if it's the pom ass juice then it's totally worth it if it worked! You gonna do all the other stuff like pineapple core after transfer? Remember when everyone on here was banging on about seeds ages ago too 🤣

Franklydear · 25/09/2020 21:51

@Minster2012 I think I’ve given you enough info to find me over the months, looking over shoulder...
That woman has run every test she can think off on me, also makes me coffee ( yes, I go too much to the doctors)she is a good one
Night night peeps

Katao · 25/09/2020 22:01

@DKDK123 I'm so sorry. I really was hoping against hope for you x

Oh my God @lucyrp that's exactly what happened to me! Was booked in for my bloods on the Monday and started spotting at the weekend! It never came to more than spotting though so i am either cd35 or cd13 but got a peak opk today. It's so frustrating though isn't it having all these long and short cycles. B

@Newbie0818 ugh I'm annoyed for you hearing about your doctor's attitude. You shouldn't have to but keep pushing.

@Minster2012 so explain the ivf tww to me....do you get to skip ahead a bit because it's an already fertilised egg? We might not be far off tww buddies!

@Clairey844 ah sweatheat I'm sorry we jinxed you! I don't know what to say, there doesn't seem to be a way to really switch off from it so maybe just stick around and have the support?

@Franklydear sorry about the bfn, are you none the wiser so? What didvthe doctor say to do next if you miss another af?

@SarahTTC2020 you're right no one mentions seeds or any of that. Think I'll bust out the pom juice! Did I miss something with you now I see gin talk? Did the witch get you?

Minster2012 · 25/09/2020 22:05

It's in the most affectionate way @Franklydear 😘❤️your doctor sounds ace, but don't let her pour coffee in your foof. Night night lovely xx

@SarahTTC2020 the seed cycling gosh yes that feel an age ago! To be honest with you I probably will get a pineapple & eat it all, maybe a couple Brazil nuts, and def continue with the Pom juice (mental note to buy more of that) but seeing as I've forgotten my folic acid for past 2 days I'm not doing well! The only reason for those is that I did that all last time & got BFP so I think might as well. But am sat here with g&t enjoying that too, & the night before transfer last time I had a hot bath & soothing g&t & will be repeating that too 🤞🏻

Katao · 25/09/2020 22:05

Phew that was a big catch up! It's intense here at the mo! Lots happening.
@Juno231 how are you? You are getting to the interesting part of the tww, anything to report or are you too busy with houses and boilers to symptom spot? 😂

Juno231 · 25/09/2020 22:08

@katao yay for a peak!! Screw those progesterone tests!

@DKDK123 your OH's comment literally made me burst out laughing 😅. What is wrong with men hey?? I'm so sorry if it's another CP though, def get things going with the NHS and maybe ask about things like baby aspirin to prevent future ones?

@Franklydear yes please stay with us, MN isn't even social media really, it's just a bit of a mental institution where we're involved 🙊

OP posts:
SarahTTC2020 · 25/09/2020 22:14

@katao no witch hasn't got me! I'm part of the drink til it's Pink crew; going to test in the morning as I can't wait any longer so I was going to have a gin tonight... Then I ate too much instead!

Minster2012 · 25/09/2020 22:14

Ahh I've just seen your reply @Katao, yes in theory the TWW doesn't have to be a TWW because the fertilised embryo has been put back in the uterus as opposed to coming back down the tubes, so yes, our embryo gets put back in at 5 days, a 5 day usually implants within 3 days so in theory by about 9 days you should get an answer. What I found from the IVF threads previously is that different clinic actually ask people to test at different days. Ours only give us a home pregnancy test (a cheap IC strip!) to take home and tell us they won't take a result before THE FULL 2 weeks. You phone and tell them. In feb we tested at 12 days as 14 days I was meeting MIL for the day with DS whereas 12 days was a nursery day so I could cry & mope if I wanted to. This time I might be a bit more impatient 😬🙈. Ppl have said they can get "2/3 weeks" On digitals at 10 days after transfer.
When's your timeline?

Juno231 · 25/09/2020 22:17

@katao you're too sweet for checking in. Basically I don't have the mental capacity to respond to everyone on here (especially if the news is bad) so then I feel guilty about it and hold off responding even more 😅. It doesn't help that I'm super busy/really anxious about work either... Spent all of today having the boiler replaced and I still don't have any hot water 😭

Anyway enough of a rant. I'm on 7DPO and although I note my symptoms I'm trying to ignore them overall. I had lightning crotch yesterday and right hand side sharp pain over my kidney area today. Creamy CM as well. I'm so desperate for even a hint of a BFP now that I don't dare hope at all 😅

Chlo2701 · 25/09/2020 22:35

Wow the thread is moving fast tonight!!! I can't keep up! But what I will say is.... @DKDK123 I'm so sorry that it sounds like another CP for you 😔 I'd seriously consider taking the Coq10 & DHA. Your OH is a typical bloke thing to say, they honestly have no idea do they🙄
@Minster2012 ive spent so fucking much on that Pom juice from Tesco🤦‍♀️ I drink about a glass & a half a day & have done for about 4months!! I dredd to think how much I've spent on that shit🙈 I also eat Brazil nuts every day, drink 2 cups of raspberry tea up until ovulation aswel as taking Coq10, folic acid, VitD, VitC & DHA everyday🙉 FML! I'm also with you on binge watching Australia married at first sight! I've just watched the latest one!! Was brilliant!! Loved it! Gutted it's just finished!
Sooooo I'm currently led here after DTD... OH snoring next to me... anybody else's OH literally asleep like 10/15mins after they've just cum!!🤦‍♀️ honestly!!... I'm too worried about getting up as don't want the swimmers to run down my leg😆 I turn round & the fuckers fast asleep!!... night then babe🙄🤣🤣🤣🤣

SarahTTC2020 · 25/09/2020 22:45

@Chlo2701 haha yeah I lay there for a while.too, but always pee after to avoid UTI!

Sorry for the pic if it's tmi but these specks of blood when I wiped, could they be implantation bleeding? Had a squinter on IC earlier and I'm 10dpo 🤷🏼‍♀️ never had anything like this before

@lucyrp attaching both my charts. Basically look how low my bbt is on femometr. Then both apps have me ovulating on different days. So obviously one of them is wrong. 🤞 you start getting a proper rise tomorrow!
(sorry not read other comments)

Oh my god I'm nearly at the end @SarahTTC2020 so don't spoil it 😳🤣😂
I know what you mean about spending so much money! And yes same on the falling asleep after he's cum...I'm laid here waiting for mine...Ive just sent him a picture to rouse him upstairs to bed FFS, and this is just fun sex! Argh, til the morning ladies!

Minster2012 · 25/09/2020 22:50

Ps @SarahTTC2020 I'm hoping that blood is just from the sex, just see how you get on 🤞🏻

Katao · 25/09/2020 22:57

@SarahTTC2020 oh good luck for the morning!
@Minster2012 very excited for you 😁 well I'm anything but predictable lately but if O tomorrow then af should be due around 9/10 October as usually have a 12 day LP
@Juno231 oh I know its so hardto keep up sometimes and I thinking I'm ignoring people when I'm replying! Good to be busy, it'll get you through the wait. Sending lots of positive vibes your way.

@Chlo2701 😂 sex coma! Wow you are going all out with the supplements etc you deserve a bfp 🤞

@SarahTTC2020 this isn't helpful but from all the googling I've done on implantation bleeding seems to be one of those things that can really vary from person to person 😬 fingers crossed!

lucyrp · 26/09/2020 06:20

@Newbie0818 thanks! Hope you got to DTD! Don't be sorry for ranting I'm sure that's what I do on here every day 🤣

@Runnergirl1thanks it's just so draining isn't it! X

@Franklydear that's how I felt the other day about taking a break off here but what would I do without you all really 🙈

@Katao omg look at that peak! It's a joke isn't it! I've woken up this morning and got more darker brown spotting this morning like quite a bit... but I've had a high temp on my bbt and fermometer even told me it's confirmed ovulation as the 22nd of September now ... I'm super confused! It's never been able to confirm it with temperature before I've had to input it with opks data.

@Clairey844 yay welcome back! I'm the same, if I wasn't on here yoj still know you're TTC and still worry about the same stuff don't you just means you have us to talk to about it all and reassure you as opposed to worrying on your own!

@DKDK123 aorry to hear its a bfn after your faint lines ☹️ these men are so funny sometimes aren't they bless them. 🤣🙈

@Minster2012 fuck boy body! Yeah I'm still booked in for my bloods on Monday at 8:45 thanks you're the best with your supporting speeches ! 😉

@blodyn91 I love you keep popping on here! Stay in touch with us please, I already feel sad that SmileyT isn't on here anymore, and it's only me and @Vil10 left of our little foursome to get our BFP as you and @KateColx have left us 🥰 thanks for attaching your charts that's really interesting! I've had a rise this morning but I've had quite a large amount of brown spotting so not sure what's going on 🥴

lucyrp · 26/09/2020 06:22

I'll attach my chart and the information fermometer very kindly gave me this morning, for once it's nice but do I believe it that's the question!.... quite a large amount of brown spotting to come with my rise in temp so wtf!

blodyn91 · 26/09/2020 07:24

@lucyrp that temp on the 18th is higher, possible you didn't sleep well or moved a bit more, then it doesn't look too bad. I do keep up with you all, skim read this thread incase I can help ☺️
@Minster2012 we lost at the auction last night, acctually thought we won, the auctioneer stopped and everything, then this od man decided he could carry on for another £23,000 going over our budget 😭so still looking for our dream house. Got all my 🤞🤞 for your transfer, definitely done the right decision

SarahTTC2020 · 26/09/2020 07:46

Ok gals.... This is it! It's faint as I'm 11dpo but it's definitely there isn't it?
Is it weird that I'm too scared to tell DH as months ago I said we could do the test together?

Sausages and j*zz - Sep Bus 17
Franklydear · 26/09/2020 08:13

Well, ladies, af is here, slowly to start but definitely not spotting...
@Minster2012 I am going to start a new trend, coffee in your foof, says medicine woman, very scientific 🤩🤣
@Juno231 I want to reply to everyone but half way the message I don't remember what I was going to say to @lucyrp... I also miss @smileyt, ...
I feel better, still going to stay away from social media for a while
I am not going to track anything this month, just wait for af without thinking much about it, so I'll just sit in the back for a while
