@Mococo1 I have no idea😂 maybe 5dpo, maybe 1 maybe not even ovulated yet? But I did have ewcm on Monday and Tuesday! I hope that's the case with me!!

@Katao I did one today and it was low again, but premom is predicting ov to be Friday, and it was right last time so maybe it's right again this time, but it wouldn't make sense why I had the ewcm, and if premom is right it would mean me having a 35 day cycle but I've always had a 30 day!

Vil10 · 04/10/2020 12:15

@NestinginNL so what would my position be if i conceived? Or is it different for everyone?

Vil10 · 04/10/2020 12:17

@Juno231 you're the girl I come to for help with rhr right?? What would it do around ovulation?

Katao · 04/10/2020 12:18

@Vil10 did you log the ewcm on premom? Is it just ignoring that?

Franklydear · 04/10/2020 12:30

I've spent my morning cleaning the tank

@Katao not a fucking clue where I am in the cycle, and the happiest I’ve been in months, currently going through a bonkfest though, af due the 21st, I put in the diary so I don’t forget, so fw can’t be far I guess
@Minster2012 I think it would be cute decoration to get the dogs to step on paint and leave a trail like a path, love it!

Juno231 · 04/10/2020 12:54

@vil10 I think it depends on the person I'm afraid! Some have a dip and others a peak for ovulation 🤷‍♀️. Can you check what it did last cycle maybe?

OP posts:
Vil10 · 04/10/2020 12:58

@Katao yeah I logged it! Flo and premom have always said different things! Guess I'll just have to keep bonking and just wait and see when/if af arrives!

@Juno231 I'll have a look back on past cycles and see if I can spot anything!

Chlo2701 · 04/10/2020 13:18

@Vil10 my RHR dips when I ovulate x

Minster2012 · 04/10/2020 14:01

@2alreadywantanother 🙌🏻🍆sometimes you're gotta scratch that itch

@Vil10 every time I put ewcm into Femometer it automatically changed ovulation to day after so I would go with then. I def think you are in TWW now

@Franklydear happy to come see you & send in pouches for a painty walk through your house, 😂🤣they've not seen fish before though 🤔

BellsB1 · 04/10/2020 14:09

Thanks everyone! Still no AF, which is great.. I can't believe I'm 11dpo. 😂 I'm in shock as she likes to show after exercise and I've just done a 10 mile walk.

If she doesn't show by tonight I'm going to get OH to buy some FRER for testing in a couple of days.

I'm glad you're the voice of reason @Franklydear 😂 I think I can hold off two days as long as I leap out of bed tomorrow. Testing early isn't going to change the outcome... that's what I need to tell myself.

These dog pictures are making me want one, OH won't let me have one yet 🙄 I do keep trying to persuade him though!

Got myself a lovely decaf tea and wrapped in a blanket for the afternoon now 😂

notyetamumbuttrying · 04/10/2020 14:18

Excellent to hear you made it to 11dpo @BellsB1!! I hope you get a bfp! I'm 11dpo too but decided it's pointless testing when my pms has been so apparent and my pain hasn't subsided. I'll prob come on tomorrow or Tuesday but I hope it stays away until weds and then I'm bk to my normal 14day LP.
Also hope it stays away until weds as I finally have my pelvic scan on tues! Transvaginal which I've never had before so could do with it not being cd1 or 2! 😬
Hope everyone's having a happy Sunday 😊

Minster2012 · 04/10/2020 14:34

@BellsB1 that's brilliant!! I also have a decaf coffee here but doing ironing boooooo you have good willpower then if you are getting FRER for a couple of days 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@notyetamumbuttrying I mean, I'll just say it then, the TV could see something 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I'm getting really miffed now. I bloody hope there's something going on inside me cos my head and the progesterone are playing tricks on me. Bloody IVF is horrible cos they stuff you so full of hormones you can't help but have symptoms 😩so annoying

Franklydear · 04/10/2020 14:45

@Minster2012 yes, come! I also got snails and shrimps! Boo to the symptoms, I only iron essentials needed tomorrow, I find most things don’t needed if folded carefully and ds doesn’t get into the drawers, ooh the mess
Currently watching a scoobydoo movie!

Franklydear · 04/10/2020 14:47

@Minster2012 not sure if the last post sounds right, boo to the symptoms, fast forward to the positive! All the way behind you

notyetamumbuttrying · 04/10/2020 14:48

@Minster2012 I doubt it. The more I read up on hubby's sperm results the more I'm convinced we'll need ICSI with ivf. Will of course keep you posted with it how goes.
Oh that's rubbish, feel for you hun. I'm listening to bfn podcast and they always say just to think it's the hormones as progesterone mimics all early pregnancy symptoms. You're waiting until Saturday to test aren't you, or is it FridayX

BellsB1 · 04/10/2020 14:48

@notyetamumbuttrying I've had the weirdest cramps for the last couple of days, sort of feels like a mild AF, with no AF. Getting back to a 14 day LP will be good though, I dream of those lofty heights 😂 when will you test if she doesn't show?

@Minster2012, I'm one of those weirdos that really enjoys ironing! I allow myself one caffeinated coffee a day then move everything over to decaf so not to overload on it. You're doing so well keeping calm, but I bet it's hard to keep your mind off it! Sounds like the TWW on steroids. Get OH to do the ironing and put your feet up with your coffee! I think we should let the guys go through the TWW sometimes, it's only fair.

I think if we order FRER tonight then it won't come until tomorrow afternoon, so has to be 2 days for FMU 😂 otherwise I'd be testing now haha!

Katao · 04/10/2020 14:52

@BellsB1 @Minster2012 aren't we good girls, I'm currently having a sitdown with adecaf cappuccino 😃
@BellsB1 @notyetamumbuttrying glad both of you girls are making headway with your LP , hope it is actually leading to a bfp 🤞
Good luck with the scan @notyetamumbuttrying.

@minster2012 I'm actually a bit peeved that at 8dpo I have zero symptoms. Seen as my last blood test showed very low progesterone I'm starting to fear thats still the case 😥

lucyrp · 04/10/2020 14:55

Hey ladies💗

Don’t worry I’ve not gone AWOL or forgotten about you, and thank you so much for your thoughts & loving tags @notyetamumbuttrying @Franklydear @Minster2012 @clolo and whoever else tagged me!
just needed a bit of time not commenting & not really thinking bout it all but still got 👀on you!!

I got my day 21 results and not great, blah blah
So don’t know what to think really, if I’m in for another long cycle & could ovulate at another point, or just not ovulate at all or whatever really. Waiting on a gynae/ fertility clinic referral. It’s all just a TOTAL FUCK BOY.

Minster2012 · 04/10/2020 14:58

@Franklydear I only iron essentials too, I've left it over a week though 😆and shrimps are for eating??? 🍤if you look in the emoji thing they are under good. See.

@notyetamumbuttrying that's a brilliant way to think about it. Thank you. I will try thinking like that. It's ALL early pregnancy. Or ALL IN MY HEAD. 😂 and I might test weds if the tests arrive on Tuesday. Otherwise it's def Friday or Saturday 😂 depends if DH wants in or not. Mind you he could be around for testing weds as he's shooting. Hmmmmm ps, the 2 ppl
I know who had ICSI it worked first time. Just sayin.

@BellsB1 yes I have one caffeinated coffee too, in a klean kanteen so it can last about 3 hours 😂😂brilliant. And though most of the ironing is DHs he won't do it. He will kill the clothes. I'm watching 90 day fiancé too so I don't mind

Noooooo @Katao stay positive for a positive. 🤞🏻❤️

Newbie0818 · 04/10/2020 15:02

@NestinginNL that doggy is ridiculously cute 😍😍 mine has just had his first haircut and he looks so different 😭😭

@Minster2012 beautiful doggos 😍 I hope something's going on inside you too x

@Franklydear oooh loving the aquarium!

@lucyrp sorry about blood results. I really think you might have developed PCOS. How old are you again? They'll get to the bottom of it x

Sausages and j*zz - Sep Bus 17
lucyrp · 04/10/2020 15:04

@Newbie0818 I think so too, I'm 23. Although I would have thought something may have been picked up on my other bloods as they tested for everything else apart from progesterone the other two times. It is possible though as I've never had spots and have had a few on my face as if recently which have left scars I've had spots across my chest and I can't seem to lose weight jo matter how hard I try. X

Franklydear · 04/10/2020 15:04

@lucyrp 👋🏻 Missed you! Hope everything turns up ok
@Minster2012 they are amaro shrimp, not enough meat on them, atm about 2cm long, bit less than an inch...
Dh also refuses to iron afraid to kill the clothes, he has no problem with washing them though

NestinginNL · 04/10/2020 15:23

I'm also sitting down with a decaf tea with a book after a long walk. We seem to have all synced with tea drinking.

@Minster2012 we're swapping to a very realistic wood look PVC floor - less skittering for paws and better for dog joints and totally waterproof. Our cats also like to knock beverages over and my OH dropped a chisel on the floor the other day and left a dent. I love wood floors but I think they'd last two seconds in this house! Love that your dogs are also lazy working dogs. My collie cross had working parents but you'd never know (other than how obsessive she can be). I struggle to get her out of bed some days.

@lucyrp that sounds PCOSish! If it turns out to be I can't recommend taking myo-inositol enough. Helped me with my PCOS so much x

@Vil10 the simplest way to describe it is the cervix is much higher and softer close to ovulation, then goes hard drops down low right after. I was tracking this month for the first time after reading about it and it was a very obvious change! Not sure how it would feel if pregnant tbh - I think general advice is not to rootle around too much up there if pregnant in case of infection. I'm sure a good Google can tell you! (Might go off and google it myself out of curiosity).

@BellsB1 so impressed at your self-control not testing! Also doing a 10 mile walk right before AF isn't something I could do, I go flat on my back right before, and I'm generally a walker, so that's a good sign? And dogs are the best. Keep showing your OH cute dog pictures, he'll cave eventually. There's also the argument of getting the puppy as baby practice? Halo

@Newbie0818 aww what a cute haircut! Looks like a little gentleman with it. Is he a Yorkie?

Vil10 · 04/10/2020 15:35

@Chlo2701 I just can't seem to figure mine out, some months it's dropped a lot then others not as much, TTC is a fuck boy!!

@Minster2012 I might change apps! Yeah I'm just going to take it as I'm in the TWW but still doing opks over the next few days to see if premom is right in saying my ov day is Friday!

@lucyrp You're back!! So sorry your results weren't what you wanted, what did they actually say? At least you're getting referred and something can be done to help❤️

@NestinginNL I might have a feel later, or get OH to😏 I'll have a good google and see what I can find! Thankyou!!
