Welcome to all the lurkers, nice to have you present, we might be crazy but we are also cool, especially me...
Should we all go to holidays next to @Minster2012?
@Sausage1990 so sorry to hear your news, we have your back, you’re home.
@Juno231 put me down for around the 25th... so far, I am very chilled, not caring, don’t even know which cd is, let’s see how long that last....

Katao · 01/10/2020 19:42

Thanks @Juno231 and @Minster2012 😉 can you put me down for the 9th October to test please. That being the day af is due so obviously there is always a teeny tiny possibility of early testing 😂

2alreadywantanother · 01/10/2020 20:01

@sausage1990 I was the same. I needed that wk to come to terms with it and say goodbye. We all deal with things differently, and do as we feel is right for us.

Any have mc and ttc before 1st period. I know they say you shouldn't but 2 wks after your meant to ovulate and be very fertile. I'm actually gagging for some action, the next wk is gona be so hard 🙈

Newbie0818 · 01/10/2020 20:01

@Juno231 I'll let you know my date once I ovulate as it can be anytime for me!

notyetamumbuttrying · 01/10/2020 20:13

@Minster2012 haha well I'm glad you haven't so far, I look forward to hearing what you do 😉
Ooh that sounds fun! Do you still use it time to time?
@Vil10 good motto! I'm defo not hard done by so I do appreciate what I've got. I guess it's because I want this so much and can't have it, highly frustrating.
Yeah test again tomorrow, I'm sure you'll see the increase then.
@2020mission I'm the same! Reckon I'll test Sunday at 11dpo. I also like to at a weekend just in case it is a bfp i know I'll have the whole day without distraction to let it sink in. I couldn't imagine finding out on the weekday and just going about my working day.

Minster2012 · 01/10/2020 20:46

Ooooo so we’ve got some testers this weekend then! Yay! 😁
@notyetamumbuttrying Yes we do use the leather spanking paddle, occasionally, though it’s bloody hard to Stay quiet for DS in next room & so it’s easier to use quieter sex toys of a love honey 🍯 variety 😋

@2alreadywantanother But then you’ll be sex starved, & we go back to that urban dictionary Bonkfest again. The definition that keeps on giving!

@Katao OMG 😆 you are gonna be a bad influence I could so test then but should do the day after. Highly unlikely to last til The 12th @Juno231, just saying! But maybe you guys will keep me strong 💪

@Franklydear I love your post. We are cool too. You are the definition of chilled llama right there darling. All come to us, in 6’s. 2ms apart please and strictly no touching.

I’ve just had to go to my iPad so can’t see who put that gorgeous picture of yorkshire😊but yes it’s beautiful here.... we often holiday in other areas of Yorkshire cos it’s so beautiful 😍 (and we are f ing lazy) no, cos yorkshire is so big and we are in the countryside that it can take us over an hour to get to places 😂🤣

notyetamumbuttrying · 01/10/2020 20:50

@Minster2012 don't get excited for me tho remember. I'm bk of the bus vibes but have early tests in, so why not waste them 😝 ah yes, love honey! Need to visit there again. I've lost my bloody bullet to the bk of the wardrobe and I'm damned if I'm pulling everything out to find it 😂
I'd love to visit Yorkshire! It's on my to do list still. It's crazy how little I've travelled round my own country lol!

2alreadywantanother · 01/10/2020 20:52

@minster2012 I am sex starved 🤣

Newbie0818 · 01/10/2020 21:06

@Minster2012 that was me 🙋🏽‍♀️🙋🏽‍♀️ it was along the Ingleton waterfall trail

Vil10 · 01/10/2020 21:10

@notyetamumbuttrying I know lovely, it must be horrible sometimes but it will happen for you❤️

Juno231 · 01/10/2020 21:15

@blodyn91 it had a slight dip today after 3 days of static 🤷‍♀️. RHR is down one as well so I'm sure I'll wake up tomorrow with AF.

@vil10 @katao @Franklydear noted your dates!

Minster2012 · 01/10/2020 21:23

@Newbie0818 yes we've done that too last year for our wedding anniversary! I mean see, Yorkshire, big place, that's 2hours 20 from us! 😂that's why we go rent a cottage there too 🙈

Minster2012 · 01/10/2020 21:25

You've lost your bullet @notyetamumbuttrying, put that on your list to either find it or buy another 😂 & come visit Yorkshire!

Katao · 01/10/2020 21:42

@Minster2012 i know I just realised then that we aren't as synchronized as I thought 😂 it's because I usually have a sortish lp of 12 days and you are supposed to wait 2 weeks, we'll have to meet in the middle! I was actually thinking of 10th for a testing date because like @notyetamumbuttrying I prefer to test at the weekend. I mean I'd love to do that only test if af is a no show thing but it's not something I ever managed before. It's like I just love wasting money 🤦‍♀️

Katao · 01/10/2020 22:02

And thanks @Juno231 for keeping track 😁 I'm still a bit hopeful for you. Sending positive vibes your way.

@2alreadywantanother fair play to you, you seem to have a positive attitude to starting ttc again. Why do they say to wait for a period? Is it just to make dating easier for them, like when you come off the pill?

notyetamumbuttrying · 01/10/2020 22:03

Thanks 😊 @Vil10 hope it happens for you soon too!
@Minster2012 it's on the list 😂
@Katao kindred spirits babe! I literally love pissing money away 😆

2alreadywantanother · 01/10/2020 22:10

@Katao for dating purposes I think. But wait 2 wks as u can get infection.
Someone was saying to treat day of d&c as CD 1, two wks later you supposedly ovulate b4 u even get period. So waste not want not 🙈
The reason I'm so eager and positive is I'm 40 and don't want waiting a few mths to try. I know some say take the time to grieve and that but if this doesn't happen in the next few months I wont be trying much longer. Just how I feel. We caught very quick last time, unexpectedly so I'm holding onto that for this next few mths and hoping it happens quick again

BellsB1 · 01/10/2020 22:13

@Juno231 fx it's just a dodgy temp and there's no AF in the morning!

@Minster2012 I live in Yorkshire too, I've been exploring a lot more of it in lockdown than I had before 😍

@Sausage1990 I'm so sorry to hear your news, take your time and do what's right for you.

I definitely think I'm going to get AF tomorrow, I'm getting cramps and my boobs might explode, which usually mean she's on her way. Still, 8 days is better than 7 😂

notyetamumbuttrying · 01/10/2020 22:19

@BellsB1 have you tried agnus castus for your short LP?

BellsB1 · 01/10/2020 22:25

@notyetamumbuttrying I haven't, but I've read about it. I've heard mixed reviews... have you/anyone tried it?

notyetamumbuttrying · 01/10/2020 22:39

@BellsB1 I tried it for different reasons. Wanted to delay ov which it did but it shortened my LP. I was always 14 days and now I'm between 12 and 13. I took too strong a dose though..was taking 2200mg tablets like a div 😆 you're only supposed to take 400mg! I stopped them but I wouldn't discourage others from trying it. It's meant to be more helpful to those with short LP's. Have another look online and see what you think.

Minster2012 · 01/10/2020 22:43

@Katao I was thinking the 10th too as DH is there then 🤞🏻, my official test day is the 14th 😂🤣that's NOT going to happen that's the full two weeks.

@BellsB1 & @Juno231 I hope AF doesn't show for you both tomorrow, Hey to a fellow Yorkshirelass Bells! ❤️🥰

@2alreadywantanother im just gonna say that DH & I didn't hear the no sex for 2 weeks info. Pretty sure they didn't mention it else we would have paid attention. My first bleeding was only for 3 days, started before I even got home, hard & heavy. I thought oh great but stopped after 3 days of awful. So 4 days later we got drunk & had sex. We survived 🤣but my MMC experience wasn't great with multiple bleeding over weeks but having spoken to the EPU they said it's normal (& with a random bleed despite being on IVF meds the other week I'm VERY sure the fault is more mine than to do with the sex) 😂

Sausage1990 · 01/10/2020 22:55

@2alreadywantanother I think deciding when to try again after a loss is so personal isn't it. Personally we've decided to wait 1 cycle but that's for me to mentally be ready to get back on this ride. Maybe longer, I don't know yet. And I don't know if I'll go quite so gung ho into all the POAS, supplements, nuts & seeds, juices, pineapple etc straight away. I'd like to just enjoy sex again (because 1st trimester nausea kicked my arse 24/7 so it wasn't high on my agenda AT ALL).

We tried for 8 months before we convinced however I do think that my anxiety was a huge issue for us as my cycles went BONKERS (like 60 ish days long) but as soon as I took the time off work and worked on improving my anxiety my cycles went back to their more normal 34-37days and thankfully we got a BFP on the 2nd "normal" cycle. So I'm hopeful like you @2alreadywantanother that it won't take us too long BUT I feel like I need to mentally be ready to deal with pregnancy again. I found it made me quite anxious anyway but now having had this experience I know myself and I know I'm not going to be able to relax until we're past this point & although it's less likely to happen again a 2nd time in a row, it can happen and I just need some time to be ready for those risks again. I duno if that makes sense.

Thank you for all the well wishes. Means alot 💕

Mrsbear1122 · 02/10/2020 06:27

@Sausage1990 sorry to hear about your loss 😟 take your time to get back into TTC, I believe mental health is very important, and it'll affect your body, so best to take your time and just go for it again when you are ready

Just thought I'd update after lurking for the past 2weeks, I won't be testing on 5th or earlier, as I only got my +opk on cd27!! And my temp only just went up this morning cd29, so checking if it rises again in the next 2 days to confirm I have ov'd. Probably just only going into tww now...have been really stressed with work the last few weeks which I think delayed ov, and also not sure if pregnacare also had an effect, I have since ditched it and just taken folic acid. So this cycle is either going to be a 40+ day cycle or AF will come as usual sometime next week...

2alreadywantanother · 02/10/2020 06:52

@Sausage1990 100% it can happen again and I'll def before anxious about it this time. I honestly dont think when it happens will make any difference I'll worry anyway. Hopefully by xmas we will all have bfp 🤞

@minster2012 that's what I'm afraid of happening the wkend, getting shit face drunk and having sex. Its after the D&C you shouldn't. Even Dr Google says not to.

Picking up my new car today, finally something positive (I'm so excited) like a child lol and doing my nail course tomorrow. Just doing the gel painting for now, progress to extensions later on.
Booked my niece to babysit sun, have a hot date with the hubby 🥰
So busy wkend 💕
