@lucyrp I don't want to throw a spanner in the works here🙉......... but are you sure that you didn't ovulate on the 11th? I'm only asking you this, because when I ovulate my RHR dips right down into the 50's, & it looks just like yours does on the 11th 🤔

@notyetamumbuttrying yeah me too 😔🤣

@Franklydear 5 days with a 5 year old child inside😂 yeah I have loads too

@Vil10 j know so annoying isn't it. It's not like your body stays the same forever it can change at any time because of anything. Omg your OH has his own dressing room that's tickled me my OH wouldn't need a room he doesn't have enough stuff 🤣

@Newbie0818 I am trying to calm down but a hyper 5 year old is not fun 🙄

@Chlo2701 no no not throwing a spanner in the works but I did think about that myself it was the 10th it dipped down on so that would make me 9dpo today but fermometer didn't pick it up so not sure 🙈 but this is what the chart looks like for the month. Pretty shit isn't it 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Vil10 my dh was complaining that he has 2 draws when I have 8, and ds 6.... his own dressing room 🤣 would be full of my jumpers 🤪

@lucyrp for the jumpers the drawers are kinda like deep pan drawers but at the bottom of our wardrobes 😂

@Katao I didn't mean it to be preachy the "dog is for life" god sorry, I was thinking more "here have one of mine" as one came careering towards me at high speed and my toddler went "go home" and the poor dogs hadn't even been walked for 5 mins and I muttered for the umpteenth time under my breath "and we want another??? FML" sorry if it came across like that! Oops

@Joanna1009 you won't be an old bus wanker 🙌🏻😋. I will shove you off before then (with your BFP I hope) @notyetamumbuttrying I will shove you all off & hopefully find out where you live (in a really not creepy way 😬😳🤪) and send you a card for your little babies when they come but yes, familiar "faces" indeed is lovely, we need it when it's our times to feel down don't we @lucyrp xxx

@Franklydear you got this girl. my baby was a treasure & slept through from 8 weeks old so they do exist. Mind you, he comes from lazy fucker stock, and it means that if we ever had another we are screwed😬🤔#karmaisabitch

@lucyrp DS & I made marshmallow crispy squares today. That went down well (he's allergic to lots of stuff including eggs & oats so lots of baking out) He nailed "tasting" as I was unpacking the dishwasher instead of stirring! I have an indoor trick or treat Halloween hunt I can send you the link for that go with hiding sweets or I've bought little toys to hide in places for him around the home? It's a printable thing for £1? I've got loads of silly little games like that we mixed up with tv /online toddler groups during lockdown

@Newbie0818 it depends if you really don't want to see a test result or leave it to the weekend? So hoping it's your time 🤞🏻gotta shove someone off this bloody bus 😂

And the last line to @Franklydear "DON'T PANIC" in the manner of the guy from dads army (cos she's clearly cool as fuck right now)

@Newbie0818 test in the morning and use your Frer or PIAP and then you can use both! 😬 Good luck 🤞🏾

Here's hoping lovely @lucyrp! 🤞🏾

You're so right @Minster2012! Ah would love a non creepy card from you 😂 need to do the same and send you one too! We'll get there won't we 💪🏾💪🏻

@Minster2012 thank you, dear, I do feel calm, at least calmer than usually at this stage, but I am not even late yet, so trying to be cautious...
my mum says second babies are easier, it’s the third one that you have to look out for, side looking little bro...

@lucyrp yeah if I'm honest looking at that him, if it was me I would go by the biggest dip as ovulation. Only saying that because mine dips most at O. I could be completely wrong as everybody is different, but I'd be inclined to class yourself as 9DPO today. So on a positive note let's keep our fingers crossed that I'm right, & today's dip is implantation for you 🤷‍♀️🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 now that would be ideal 👌🏽

@lucyrp hun not him 🙈 I really should read my msgs bk before posting them🤦‍♀️

@Minster2012 i wish I had drawers that deep. I have a chest of 6 drawers to keep my clothes in and always rotate summer and winter wardrobe with the attic as I have nowhere else to store them 😂 ans yes totally need familiar faces @notyetamumbuttrying. Ooo yes to rice crispy cakes I think I have some chocolate I can use to melt if not we can walk to the shop or grab some on our way home from a nature walk which I am planning. Ooo yes plz to the link

@Chlo2701 oh really ? Have you been following rhr for a few cycles now ? But I did have a dip at what would be 3dpo too if we're calling 10th ovulation ?? 🙈🙈 and I missed a rhr entry yesterday because my watch didn't record it. yes would be ideal but not holding out any hope now lol I had my hopefulness and its gone so well just see what happens 😂

@LaceyMermaid aww. How long have you been teaching? I'm only just a fully qualified and already wanting to leave 🤣 mostly I enjoy it, but there's just only so much one human can do..

@Minster2012 @notyetamumbuttrying hmmm. I'll see how I feel in the morning, and if I chicken out (which I probably will!) I'll test at the weekend if still no af. Story of my life 🤣 af ALWAYS starts on a Saturday, so I'll be lucky to make it by then. I suppose at least my body is regular in that way haha

@lucyrp this is my RHR chart the month I got my BFP. It doesn't matter about the dip at 3DPO, I had it to. If you look at this, you'll see I ovulated 24th Aug. You can see It's the lowest my RHR dips. Then count on & you see I had an implantation dip 6&7DPO. I've tracked for about 3 cycles now, I'm addicted!🙈

@lucyrp

@lucyrp surely they should take that into account as well!! Oh god he has more than me honestly!! So many pairs of trainers and coats it's ridiculous!!

@Franklydear hahahah I wish I could use some of his space!! He packs it all in!

Omg @lucyrp did she really say go have a pint. I'd have wrapped something around her head the cheeky mare.

Everyone seems down kn the dumps, the dark wet weather isnt helping.

Nothing to report here. Not symptom spotting. Just riding out what I hope is the tww and see what life brings.
Like some as saying about getting caught up in it and it's all you focus on. It's so easy for that to happen. My kids are off on mid term next wk and that will actually be a really good distraction. We have gone back into lockdown here in ireland so cant go far but gona try and make the most of it with them

@lucyrp (and anyone else who wants it) here's the link to the downloadable Halloween hunt and there's a free nature one on there too

Would love to send everyone non creepy (or creepy I don't care!) cards 😂

@Chlo2701 oooo yes I can see that now! Which Apple Watch do you have ? Mine is the 3 but just upgraded to a 6 and that's coming tomorrow so I'm excited for that 😁 my current one hasn't been recording data properly so hoping this new one will be the dogs bollocks. I've been checking my rhr for 3 days now and I'm obsessed already

@Vil10 you would think so wouldn't you. Omg really 🙈🙈 my OH has two coats 🤣 to be fair he hardly wears one he gets really hot easily so its only a jumper maximum mosh of the time

@2alreadywantanother her words were when I had my chemical " don't worry you're only young I'm sure you'll be back here with us in no time. Go and have a pint and don't worry about. You have plenty of time" 😡

@lucyrp the neck

@Chlo2701 my bbt reading on the 10th is the highest I've had this cycle which is when I had my biggest rhr drop...?

@Juno231 I'm now wondering if I've actually had 2 cycles in the space of time I think I've had one. I had spotting for 5/7 days from CD20-CD26 but literally only spotting if that when I wiped when I went to the loo I'm so confused I'm just looking at all my data tonight thinking wtf 😂

@Newbie0818 15 years 🙈 it’s changed a lot in that time!

@lucyrp I do call out health professionals when they are being arses, my health visitor wrote in the red book at 5 months old that as my baby was big ( read tall) I should start weaning in solids, so I wrote under that both the British medical association and the American one (others available) have done studies that regardless of size, there was evidence that suggest the gut doesn’t fully develop until the 6 months mark and I wasn’t about risk a lifelong of digestive issues, also that her suggestion of baby rice should be reconsidered as it’s mainly empty calories and very little nutrients, not introducing flavour or texture, so didn’t add any value to diet, I did signed it mum, we still have a chuckle whenever the red book comes out, my gp couldn’t believe I dared, but I ask him to point out exactly where I was wrong. (Different gp, Rosie is lovely)

@lucyrp remember at the end of august I had only spotting? that was a cycle...
