@Florence13 I literally have nothing to lose so anything's worth a go right ?!

Florence13 · 23/10/2020 20:28

@lucyrp definitely, you’ll have to let me know I might give them a go next cycle. Think I’m very aware we are coming up to the year mark of TTC

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 20:31

@Florence13 I'm in month 15 now of ttc 😔 I find it worse as I don't have regular cycles so literally feel like there's nothing I can do. We don't have the momentum to DTD every other day because it could go on for 72 days and no ones got that much energy not knowing when you're ovulating. Like today I'm CD48 and by this point last cycle I'd got my period but I went to the loo before and I'd got creamy white cm in my knickers 🤷🏼‍♀️

Franklydear · 23/10/2020 20:31

I think it's worth a try @lucyrp

Vil10 · 23/10/2020 20:36

@Kirky658 @NestinginNL @Newbie0818 Thankyou for the advice ladies!! Some of my periods are heavy but I never leak through into my underwear or anything, just on the first day or two my tampon is full after a few hours, I have period pains on the first day but nothing that stops me from doing anything, I have the odd pain when I lift my legs up during sex but I always put that down to my ibs, other than that there's nothing else but I'm worrying now😂

@lucyrp I was thinking about trying them too!!

Missgoldilocks · 23/10/2020 20:46

@Juno231 if there's one thing I've learned it's that nothing is reliable to make you think you're going to get a bfp, but, I still Google all the same things every 2ww 😅😅😅😅😅

Chlo2701 · 23/10/2020 20:48

@Franklydear tell me about it! The statistics show that it's not hospitality that are spreading it, at the end of the day it's schools & people mixing in households that are spreading it 🤦‍♀️ but hospitality is getting penalised for it'
@lucyrp yes try them, you've got nothing to lose. I think when we get to the point that were at we're willing to try anything!

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 20:51

@Franklydear @Vil10 thanks ladies

@Chlo2701 yeah like I just want my cycles to be regular and when I don't have any reason for them hot to be what harm can it do. The only bad reviews for them are people with normal cycles making them longer but I won't have that problem 😂 I didn't want to take anything other than folic acid because I thought it was more to go wrong but most of these reviews are related to PCOS or long irregular cycles whose cycles have regulated and become short !

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 20:51

Anyone's OH take wellMan conception vitamins !

Florence13 · 23/10/2020 20:53

@lucyrp aww I feel you hun. I had really irregular cycles but dare I say the last couple of months they have been regular. I think go for it and I will try them next cycle I think as well. Like you say we have got nothing to lose and everything to gain.

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 20:58

@Florence13 I used to have regular cycles then went on the depo after a termination and was on it for 3 years then came off it and it took 4 months for my regular cycles to return and as quickly as they came back they f**ked off again! Had a 7 week one which was a cp and then 72,47 and currently 48 as I said before. Wanted to let them regulate by themselves but fed up now 🥺

Minster2012 · 23/10/2020 21:10

Wow, I go away for one day 😂so much!
@NestinginNL bloody cute pic that, I tried to put our dog in a back pack when it was a puppy, it was like "WTAF are you doing to me??" Yours looks adorable! Puppy not great for sex though, much like having a baby ya!

@lucyrp def try seven seas, worth a shot. 🤞🏻

To all those on half term 🙌🏻🤪

@Chlo2701 I have complete sympathy for hospitality. What the fuck difference they think 10pm is gonna do I don't know compared to midnight for instance, might as well make it midnight at least try help out a bit more when so many other things can reopen/stay open which are worse I have no idea

@Juno231 you are total zen, love it 🤞🏻❤️

Florence13 · 23/10/2020 21:13

@lucyrp yes I was on the depo for ten years so know where your coming from. I went on the pill for a few months because I was bleeding continuously when I came off it. Then I came off the pill and had really irregular cycles but hoping they may have considered sorting themselves out now.

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 21:17

@Florence13 wow ten years! I've read up lots about being on the depo for too long and was worried 3 years was too long 😬🥺 I'm at the point where I'm considering going back on contraception to see if going on it and coming off something different might kick start my body! They're just so long. My OH has lost all interest in trying for a baby and reminds me I'm the broken one and it's true. We can't really do anything to help. I'm not sure if I even ovulate. Going by my bbt I don't 🥺

Florence13 · 23/10/2020 21:22

@lucyrp yes super long time. I was advised to go on the pill due to it messing up my cycles so bad and although initially I didn’t think it had helped I do think now it definitely has as I now seem to have 28 day cycles.

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 21:27

Just input all my data on ff to see what that said if anything and its come up with another ovulation date wtf ?

NestinginNL · 23/10/2020 21:27

@Kirky658 oh I didn’t find that one! You mentioned it being a woman who’d set it up with loads of resources and I thought Nancy’s Nooo ☺️ That’s great there’s a UK specific one!

Belgium just cancelled all non urgent surgery and they’re talking about total lockdown here (we’re partial atm). I hope my tests don’t get cancelled now they’re finally on the horizon 😣

@Minster2012 he’s the calmest border collie puppy ever, he loved the backpack. He’s been temperament tested to be a therapy dog, comes from a line of them. I’ll probably train him up when he’s older. We met a friend with her three kids (all under 5) and he was amazing with them, even the girl who was scared of dogs being very jumpy and screamy. She loved him by the end ☺️ Total opposite of my other dog who was a hyper crocodile at this age.

Puppies are bad enough for 🍆 but I’m in a bit of an “I don’t want to see your face” mood with OH at the moment. Long story but our trip got a bit ruined thanks to his ongoing inability to leave work at home. I need to get past this before the egg drops 😣😣😣 we don’t normally get into fights, certainly not ones that last, but I just want to sleep on the couch right now 😭 haven’t seen most family and friends in nearly a year which doesn’t help things. There’s no break from each other with this damn pandemic 😞

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 21:27

@Florence13 how long did you go on the pill for ??

Minster2012 · 23/10/2020 21:36

@lucyrp @Florence13 I was on depo for 17 years 😩 I had a review every 3 years and every time I was told I couldn't go on anything else as I had to be on a hormonal contraception for my chemo & based on my medical history (& my family's) there was nothing else I could go on. They didn't think it would affect my fertility only potentially lead to osteoporosis 🤷‍♀️. It likely didn't help.

@NestinginNL your pup sounds fantastic & sorry to hear you & OH are fighting, it's so horrible, that's what we were like last week. I hated it. And I really hope your tests can go ahead 🤞🏻

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 21:53

@Minster2012 omg !!! To be fair I liked it when I was on it as no periods and it worked fine. Until I came off it and realised how fat and depressed it had made me !

NestinginNL · 23/10/2020 21:56

@Minster2012 I’m not sure he even knows we’re fighting 🤦‍♀️ he’s a bit inscrutable. I’ve put the dog as a buffer in bed between us.

I don’t even know it’s worth me staying angry over. Can’t change the past and he’s apologised already. I’m still just so angry though. Just need a bit of time I guess.

Katao · 23/10/2020 22:08

Oh @lucyrp 😬 your OH needs to be a bit more sensitive I think! I'm sure you are not broken, just a bit out of whack at the moment x

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 22:13

@Katao he is only joking and I take it as a joke but just get annoyed it's me sometimes I wish it was him that the problem was with! The more I think of it as temporary the more permanent it becomes. I'm wondering whether to have a complete off the tracking month next month. Will take those seven seas but not do bbt etc ? I just don't know 🥺

Minster2012 · 23/10/2020 22:17

@lucyrp I liked it, bloody loved having no periods gotta tell you! And like @Katao says, you def aren't broken & it takes 2 to tango to make a CP too that's not fair in any way 😩sending massive hugs your way, he's only hurting cos he wants it too

@NestinginNL honestly I get like that too, proper angry for days like "I'm still hurting & you don't even know why" but guys don't think like that, they are like "ok it's fine now" NOOOOOOOO it's not pahhhhh I've just learnt I have to let go.

lucyrp · 23/10/2020 22:32

@Minster2012 it was great but then I got to a point where I felt dirty for not having any periods and felt like I needed a clean out 😂 it's okay it's only a joke we have between each other, because I am broken so if I don't laugh il cry 🙈 I do even wonder if I even had a cp now or whether it was the start or my stupid cycles and just some rubbish tests 🥺
