@Chlo2701 my fingers are crossed for you lovely 🤞🏽🤞🏽 Bvits have me an extra day each cycle. How many days usually is your LP?

Chlo2701 · 04/12/2020 15:53

@AnxiousAnnie86 RHR plummeted today & I did a FRER & it was stark white so AF definitely coming tonight or tomorrow. I'm annoyed but at least I can have a drink at Christmas so that's a bonus! I'm CD31 today which is unheard of so @Blossom428 those vitb have given me an extra day so I'm pleased about that as my usual LP is only 10days.
@AnxiousAnnie86 that's sooooo shit that you're suffering with sickness again but it'll all be worth it in the end! Can't believe you'll be 10wks tomorrow!! Crazy how quick time is going. My best friend is 10wks on Monday & she's not had any sickness at all (lucky cow) she's just constantly hungry🙈🙉 good luck with the scan on Tuesday, please come bk on here & update me!😃
@Blossom428 how far are you now? How you feeling & have you had a scan yet? Xx

Chlo2701 · 04/12/2020 15:57

Also @Blossom428 did the vitb's affect your ovulation do you know?

Blossom428 · 04/12/2020 17:07

Sorry to hear stark white- but there's still time!! @Chlo2701
One cycle it did push back ovulation. So I used to take b complex up till ovulation, some times stop that a few days before and then I would take B6 after ovulation.
I'm okay thanks, I'm 6+4 today. Time is going the slowest EVER! Scan next Thursday. Very mild symptoms so I'm fearing the worst, but trying to keep positive as I know some people jsut don't have many like you say with your friend.

Blossom428 · 04/12/2020 17:07

Bonus with the drinks at Christmas!! I'm trying to come up with ideas to hide it, but it's going to be difficult. Least the pubs aren't open where I live haha! @Chlo2701

Argh, guys - ever since we decided to stop making so much effort I’ve been feeling really guilty and like I shouldn’t have given up, and DH has pretty much lost his sex drive entirely all of a sudden and I don’t know what to do.
I’m on CD21 today which is the start of my two week potential ovulation window, felt like sex, and tried but he rejected me so hard and pretty much has now run off upstairs. It caught me by surprise.
Still waiting for test results, I really don’t know what to do. I was kind of hoping for a decent amount of sex this cycle without planning it, so there might be a chance, but things have just suddenly gotten weird. 😩

bwfcchick88 · 11/12/2020 22:38

Hey ladies.. sorry I've been quiet, I've just been carrying on. Managed to dtd when I was fertile & got the below pic yesterday..dunno what to think! I've never had a hint of a second line before. Any advice welcome x

TTCagainHOPEFUL · 12/12/2020 08:37

@bwfcchick88 how long after doing the test did this line come up?

I’ve had trouble with these tests and sadly they were evap lines. I was adamant I was pregnant after seeing loads of them but then my period came 😩

Ah ok, it came up within the required time but still a bit weird... I'll see what happens, thanks though x

TTCagainHOPEFUL · 12/12/2020 12:34

@bwfcchick88. Hopefully it’s a positive for you. Get a pink dye test. Fingers crossed for you

Thanks hun..I have a feeling it's just a random test and my period will start, but will see. It was our first month using the OPK sticks so far too good to be true that it would happen the first month. Will see how it goes x

Blossom428 · 12/12/2020 14:39

Oooooh get a FRER @bwfcchick88 you'll know for sure! My fingers are crossed for you xx

bwfcchick88 · 12/12/2020 15:12

@Blossom428

Oooooh get a FRER *@bwfcchick88* you'll know for sure! My fingers are crossed for you xx
Thanks hun, me too - I'll see if my period starts on Monday and if it doesn't I'll get one. Hope you're good xx
AnxiousAnnie86 · 13/12/2020 08:45

@bwfcchick88 hey! Surely that's positive?!! That will be so so cruel if it's a false, especially given it was in time frame? How are you not testing again?!!? Xxx

I tried again yesterday but the test (from the same pack) didn't work (no line at all, not even a line to show it had worked) so part of my thinks it was a dodgy pack plus I always think I will jinx myself! Have had a few cramps so reckon AF will show up - will see if she does tomorrow and if not I'll retest! Very weird. Hope you're ok xxxx

AnxiousAnnie86 · 13/12/2020 11:54

@bwfcchick88 that's so awful if it's a faulty pack! I haven't heard of that wirh clear blue but I never used those ones so I dont know :( I have everything crossed for you, I'm okay thanks apart from looking and feeling like total crap all day everyday :( xxxxx

Aww, it'll all be worth it though 😘
Tbh I'm naturally quite a negative person and always think the worst so I wouldn't actually believe I could get a positive, in truth my negative thinking is why we haven't conceived as there's no medical issue. My mental health is much better these days so I'll just keep an eye out for AF and see what happens. Trying to stay really calm has often hindered me so this time I'm going to trust my body and stop obsessing xxxxxx

bwfcchick88 · 13/12/2020 12:13

When I say my negative thinking is why it hasn't happened, I don't meant to cause offence, I mean that, for me, constant worrying and overthinking has made me reluctant to try because I've convinced myself it will never happen - so we haven't had regular sex until recently, if that makes sense. Xx

AnxiousAnnie86 · 13/12/2020 12:21

@bwfcchick88 I was so anxious about it all it was really causing me the worst anxiety! I started reflexology and it really helped x

I think I'm going to give it a try when covid permits! Hope you're doing well x

bwfcchick88 · 15/12/2020 11:49

Update: I started bleeding today so guessing the test I did was dodgy/an evap. Absoutely gutted as it was our first month using the ovulation sticks and we did everything right. Need to stop crying and write this bloody synopsis for part of my research. Hope you're all okay xxx

TTCagainHOPEFUL · 15/12/2020 13:06

I’m sorry to hear that @bwfcchick88 I’m the same as you with the negativity though. Trying preseed this month. Has anyone had and experience with it? Xx

Thank you x no I haven't tried preseed but will check it out. Are you ttc your first or second? Xx
WaitingForEgg · 16/12/2020 21:44

I’m sorry @bwfcchick88 I’m riding the disappointment bus with you. My next focus will be on losing a bit of weight. I’m about half a stone heavier than when I conceived my daughter, so figure it couldn’t hurt to lose it.

TTCagainHOPEFUL · 16/12/2020 22:27

@bwfcchick88 my second. Finding it hard this time round. Hoping nothings wrong. I’ve read amazing reviews from the preseed with people falling pregnant within the first or second cycle... that’s if it’s to be believed. Worth a try though surely? Xx
