I too took Pregnacare for two months, but they messed with my cycle too much. The second month, AF was five days early and lasted for nine days!

Having said that, since stopping them, I can't help but wonder of there are any lingering positive effects from these, as this is the closest I've ever been to feeling actual pregnancy symptoms all year. I guess time will tell.

notyetamumbuttrying · 12/10/2020 18:43

Yes @Newbie0818 I hate it 🤪
@Missgoldilocks babe I feel you so much! 13 months and 16 cycles over here, just such tedium isn't it! Never did I ever (ooh sounds like a game 😂) think it would be like this. I've turned into a hormonal mess and live by cycle days...this is my life now 😆

@Newbie0818 soooo bored of it 🥱🥱

Missgoldilocks · 12/10/2020 19:01

@notyetamumbuttrying exactly 😂😂😂😂😂 we talk on mums net language hahaha you know what pisses me off? When I got pregnant with my son I didn't have a cluuuuue about ovulation 😂😂😩 wtf hahaha! It's mad 😬 yeah it's just sooo long and tiring!! I keep hinting to oh to start before January with fertility specialist but he's sooo not having it! Maybe I should turn to acupuncture lol

2alreadywantanother · 12/10/2020 19:06

@missgoldilocks snap. 2 kids here and only learning all the stuff now.

2020mission · 12/10/2020 19:21

@Newbie0818 yes it's definitely got boring! It's fun for the first few months when you've got new things to try and you're still excited and positive.

notyetamumbuttrying · 12/10/2020 19:24

@Missgoldilocks I'm pissed off that I waited to get married without making him do a SA before he proposed 😂 😆
Acupuncture could be a touch though, ppl swear by it don't they. Worth a whirl!

Katao · 12/10/2020 19:38

Oh god girls it's like we are having a synchronised breakdown here!🙈 I actually think it's your bfn @Minster2012. ...we were all hoping so much for you, I think its deflated us all. (I hope that doesn't come across insensitive😬 ) plus the fact that a lot of us have been here so long, we are running out of stamina together. Right we need a pick me up, are we out of memes? Games? Quizzes?

Katao · 12/10/2020 19:46

Lol the chicken one did properly make me laugh 😂

Missgoldilocks · 12/10/2020 19:47

@katao we are aren't we 😂😂😂 I have a few memes!!
@notyetamumbuttrying loool you know what's funny? My mums a witch. She always said that my bro in law would have a low sperm count 😭😂 she'd be like "hell definitely have a low sperm count I can't just sense it"
Low and behold it's like 8 million 😐 that's some scary shit.
My sister hasn't told her it's him she just said they both had issues and wouldn't specify lol I mean could you haha bet she'd never let her live it down, bloody witch

I'm cramping tonight. Really hoping it's not AF coming early... How are we all doing?

Missgoldilocks · 12/10/2020 19:48

Hahaha love the memes @katao :)

Missgoldilocks · 12/10/2020 19:48

@2020mission yeah now it's like oh god sex again? 😂😂😂😭😭😭

Mosherchick · 12/10/2020 19:49

Loving those memes @Missgoldilocks 😂

lucyrp · 12/10/2020 19:52

@Katao definitely lost stamina! I've been on the bus since April/may so 🥱😴

Franklydear · 12/10/2020 19:55

@lucyrp I’ve join in April or may too, it’s been a long time, we need a break

Minster2012 · 12/10/2020 19:56

@Katao I know what you mean, I'm so sorry, I YOLD you guys I shouldn't be on here. I should be on the infertility threads but they are are such dull ppl anyway it makes the hard journey harder, & when they say shit like "I'm gonna stop my meds" I wanna scream.

I have a quiz but it's on my pad in my hotel room & I'm about to eat a duck & a cow 😹. A mooing cow for that matter, which you can't do when pregnant!

Here's a picture of me celebrating my BFN with my flowers I brought to my spa day I bought myself the other day. But my friend sent me wine here to my room cos she's a darling 😻cos I said there was no fridge and I brought white wine. Note. DH- only messaged

Happy BFN ladies!!

Minster2012 · 12/10/2020 20:00

Ps, I've been in a jacuzzi, a sauna, a steam room, an aromatherapy room & a salt room. NONE of white you can do when pregnant
🙌🏻
Silver linings ladies
Oh and I have gin. And had wine.
BIG SILVER LININGS 😂

Franklydear · 12/10/2020 20:08

@Minster2012 enjoy lovely, and don’t dare going anywhere, we’ll be here for the next step
Dh currently complaining I am on mumsnet, instead of reading about COVID new restrictions

Juno231 · 12/10/2020 20:09

@minster2012 that sounds fantastic!! And your tatas look fab in that dress too 🙊

@Newbie0818 so bored and @katao I think I agree with your analysis... I've definitely gone a bit quiet here the last few cycles and I think that's me running out of ttc steam. In the earlier cycles i swear I had something new to try with every new cycle, now I just can't be bothered cause I've realised none of it works 😅

Been on the MN busses since Feb 😬

I'm expecting BD from OH tonight but he's just had such a big dinner that I can see him trying to back out!

@Minster2012 I like your style! Enjoy the r&r. No don't say that, you know we all love you here, we just wish it had gone differently.

Ya @lucyrp @Franklydear I think a lot of us are here since April/may even though a lot have come and gone since. I actually looked back at the first bus the other day and couldn't believe some of the names on it, some girls still here and some who must be heading for 6 months pregnant now 😲 I had forgotten some but then was like oh ya I remember now! Remember we had 3 Aussies at on stage and the thread was active around the clock 😂

Missgoldilocks · 12/10/2020 20:16

@Juno231 😂😂 you know what when I was cd18 I couldn't bear the thought of sex so he produced a sample LOL and I stuck it in me. Actually the BEST syringes are the 1ml ones from amazon they literally sucked up everypart!! I'll definitely be using them when I can't be bothered to have sex now!!

@Minster2012 Ahhh you look amazinggggg Yassssss enjoy queen enjoyyyyyyy!! All the wine and chocolate and fooooood hehe

Franklydear · 12/10/2020 20:25

@Katao I remember the Aussies, was really nice to have someone to talk to in the middle of the night ( we went a bit crazy in lockdown)

lucyrp · 12/10/2020 20:31

@Franklydear we do do😫

@Minster2012 omg you in that dress tho! Love your note from your friend! So thoughtful xx

@Katao I know I did the same and was shocked how many of us there were and how many have gone! The Aussies were the best I was wondering whag happened to skip the other day and her pigeon poo stories ☹️😂
