Post Pill TTC - Still Partying

[MintGreenLife]

No idea how we managed to smash through 1,000 messages (40% of them are probably me anyway, ha!) in such a short space of time, but a new thread is needed for the post pill TTC party, so here it is...

Tag anyone I've forgotten please, and new party-goers always welcome :)

@Moocher90 fingers crossed 🤞🏻 for you ❤️

@ChinChilly I wasn't totally imagining things! I did get something resembling a very very light AF after those cramps. The cramps have stopped now thank goodness.

Did some googling and came across what I think is the start of these threads with posters discussing their super light periods! I feel a bit silly I never realised how long it might take for things to normalise. I've started temping to see if I can follow things but not sure how I'll get on with it - woke up with a slightly stuffy nose this morning which affected my breathing and the initial temp was 35.4! (attempt 2 was 36.3 which sounded a lot more sensible)

@Moocher90 I take 2000mg. I guess see if it works and then that's fine and if not you can up it next cycle!

@Juno231 I shall see how I get on. As you say I can up it next cycle if needs be x

I have a terrible cold and I’m trying to convince my OH I’m fine so we can DTD 😂

@Sperr hows that working out for you?! 😂

I'm CD12. No ovulation signs at all, my EWCM 5 days ago seems like a complete one off. We are DTD everyday anyway, although might give him the day off today and go again tomorrow if nothing happens on the OPKs (which I'm not holding my breath it will). And I'm awake ridiculous early, typical given the clocks have gone back so I'm not even benefitting from the bonus hour 😫

How's everyone doing?

Same here @AMS19 up at the crack of dawn, what is the point of the clocks going forwards & backwards 🤨

4DPO over here not a great deal going on!

@AMS19 we did it! Definitely taking a day off today though. My throat is like swallowing razor blades. Hopefully if I just take lots of medicine today I’ll be ready for tomorrow

@ChinChilly It's funny I usually love the extra hour but being stuck in and wfh anyway I'm much less bothered 😂

@Sperr oh you poor thing. Drink gallons or fresh orange juice, it will rush the recovery time!

Morning ladies! I would have loved to benefit from the extra hour but my dogs had other ideas 😅🐶

Im on CD34 and still waiting for ovulation (or AF... either will do)! My poor OH has DTD with me 20 times so far this cycle (although he's nog complaining much 😆)!! All around big LH surges that have resulted in nothing ... so frustrating! 😫😫😫

Anyone in their LP got any exciting symptoms??

Oh jo @Kay00 do you not think your BBT rise was ovulation then? I'm CD12, nothing exciting. No EWCM, no real pains, ZERO LH 😭😭😭 I've been DTD a lot and am now worried I should stop in case I do ovulate and my husband is too worn/emptied out 😂😂😂

@AMS19 that’s true, atleast I won’t be dog walking in the dark in the morning!

@Kay00 I’m 4DPO, nothing much going on, boobs are quite tender and quite alot of creamy CM but it’s too early really to read into it too much

@AMS19 I’m on the orange juice! All I want to do is stay in bed and eat rubbish 🤧. I had some EWCM this morning so hoping that means ovulation will be soon! My opks are low though. I’m going to do today’s later in the day since we are going out shopping now. Im only on CD9

@ams19, no... my temp rise was measly and I have had a high soft cervix + fertile CM several times since then. Just waiting on a good temp rise or AF so I can start all over again!

@chinchilly I like to hear your LP symptoms as I'm dreaming of being in mine!!

@juno231 how are you doing? Are you 10 or 11 DPO?

@kay00 11dpo and bfn, so realistically I think I'm out 😬

Eeeeek!!! I cannot tell you how happy this makes me!!! This is like my BFP 😂😂😂

@AMS19 congratulations!! Are you gonna start testing more often now?

@Kay00 this TWW malarky seems to last forever!!!

@Juno231 you’re not out until AF turns up!

@AMS19 I would start testing atleast twice a day from now!

@Sperr @ChinChilly yes was planning on testing again 5ish then depending on that maybe once more at 10ish?! Or is 3 times excessive?! It is obviously still "low" but the fact there is a line is a win for me. The test line actually appeared before the control line did

@AMS19 I test 3 times once mine start getting dark like that, my peak comes and goes so quickly though

@ams19 yes, test again a couple of times tonight!! Good luck my dear!!

@juno231 bum. But you're not out completely yet! Hopefully your bean is a late implanter!

My cervix is still high and soft and feels open but I haven't had a positive OPK yet. I did a pregnancy test (just in case I did ovulate 11 days ago) but that was negative too. I also... with my FMU did a FSH test (just a cheapie from Superdrug because it was reduced to £10 and couldn't help myself 😂) and that was negative (which is good... is positive it can indicate menopause is approaching and ovulation might not be happening) so im fairly confident im ovulating but it just hasn't happened for me this month (yet?!) 🙃😇

Hope you ladies are all having a nice chill before work in the morning!! 🤗

@Kay00 The cervix is a good sign. Just keep DTD and see what happens. Got everything crossed for you! What CD are you now? And what were your last 2/3 cycles like?
The Sunday dread isn't as bad as it used to be when we actually went into work but I would still rather not be turning the laptop on 😭

@AMS19 any updates on your OPK??
