@2alreadywantanother aww how old is your son? My husband has type 1
too but he wasn't diagnosed until he was 18 so it didn't impact his childhood.

@lucyrp I've been on the pill for 11 years and I can honestly say it helped so much with my skin and cycle etc, but my libido was zero and my mental health was bad. The pill is ok as a symptom bandaid but doesn't help with the underlying issue, id investigate your cycle first and avoid it if you can. Obviously it's not good with ttc too haha.

@Newbie0818 oh yeah I've been on 3 different types of the pill before, I just meant if there's no obvious reason as to why my cycles are like this because I can't see that there is at the moment then it might jump start them back into regular. Definitely not useful with ttc but what's 3 months in the grand scheme of Everutning 🤣

Officially testing 6th November (but I might cave on Wednesday)

@lucyrp ahh I see. You never know 🤷🏼‍♀️ worth a try if you don't mind I suppose

Also, about the schools, I'm a secondary teacher and we're doing whatever we can to avoid it. Like someone else said anything is possible with BJ. I'm in 2 minds about it... on one hand I get it, economy, education, vulnerable kids, but on the other hand I just don't see the point of a lockdown if schools are still open, just nip it in the bud. I'm seeing so many of my colleagues and students going off sick and I feel unsafe at work because unless you've been in a school, you don't realise how social distancing and all that just doesn't happen. In my cousins school they had kids spitting at each other and in the water fountains. Gross. And that's a good school!

@newbie0818 my DH is also a secondary teacher in a rough ish school. Kids are good in school re social distancing but a nightmare outside in the yard and when they leave school. They're wearing masks in the corridors, sanitising and temp checks but I don't half worry about him...

@lucyrp awww my love it really is just one massive mindfuck for you!
As it's now gone up it doesn't look like AF will be coming in the nxt 24hrs does it! With you it's literally going to be a sit & waiting game. But I know if I was you I'd be testing on internet cheapies every few days now until/if AF arrived. I wouldn't be able to help myself 🙈 I'm only 7DPO (that's if I did definitely ovulate) & I'm dying to POAS already🤦‍♀️ even though no doubt it'll be a BFN if I do do it in nxt couple days. I just can't help myself! I've only fallen pregnant once in 17 months so the likelihood of it happening is looking very slim

@katao no I think I'd missed that, thank you! @Runnergirl1 congratulations on your BFP!! So happy for you ☺️. How many dpo were you in the end before you tested?

Had our SA results back today and everything is good 🤷‍♀️. He has a very elevated round cell count but they didn't even comment on it so... Guess we're plodding along a while longer and hopefully something will happen one day! If nothing happens by Jan then I think we're prime candidates for IUIs?

@Kirky658 it's awful! It just doesn't make sense to me. But hey ho.

@Juno231 glad it all sounds ok 👍🏻 what's a round cell count?

@Chlo2701 I know and any normal person rhr going back up would be a good thing! But who knows with me. I've got a few cheap sainsburys tests thag I might start testing with 😬 fingers crossed you have ovulated!

Hello, all good here, dtding casually, like who cares
Boss boy new name is temper boy, god, he can be violent...
Trying not to and failing, ewcm at the moment...

@Juno231 great to hear that all is good from the SA 🙌 I'm curious though... did he deposit week old semen or clear out in the days before 😆

@Minster2012 that's so selfish of your friend to say that though especially when she wasn't even pregnant or had a chance of being if she wasn't with anyone!! I hope you get a baby girl and call her Beatrice!!

@Kirky658 I really hope they don't, but we just never know do we☹️

@Gem176 isn't it frustrating!! My friend is due next month and doesn't know the gender and hasn't mentioned any names she likes but I just have a feeling she likes a boys name I do!!

@Juno231 so glad your OH's SA results came back fine!! At least you know for sure there's nothing wrong, that's a positive!!

@Juno231 ooooo the house move yes of course but being stressed and waking up doesn't sound good, maybe you need to electrocute your director 🤔I think we must alllll be retaining 4lbs of water. Definitely. Yep. That's good in the analysis tho right, so do you get a follow up appointment or something?

@kidky oh god yeah welcome to the world of dogs/puppy and sickness. Though maybe you'll end up like me, my dog is sick I'm like mehhhhh stupid dog eaten some crap 🙈🤦🏼‍♀️they'll be fine after some chicken and rice 😬

@Flossy1982 I mean, if you get a BFP on weds you might want to know before lockdown....just sayin! (Or BFN I guess) but let's hope it's the former 🤞🏻🤞🏻🥰

Yeah @Newbie0818 totally see what you mean. Kids are vile in most regards and it is really stupid how a child's "bubble" at school can be 120 kids yet at home it's 4? And not seeing grandparents/aunts uncles cousins etc??! Wtf??

@Franklydear violent?? That doesn't sound good...you ok? Or more temper tantrums towards others? Trying to be casual I take it but make sure you keep 🍆

@Vil10 we prob wouldn't actually pick Beatrice more Bea or something that could shorten to Bea but isn't Beatrice as that's a bit too prim for us (she says with a DS who some ppl get wrong and say poshly as it kinda isn't a "proper name on its own" but we just used it, sounds strange til you know what it is!) our surname starts with B so our DS was nicknamed baby 🐝& we quite liked it but yeah it wouldn't actually stop us. Our favourite girls name I know someone who's dog is called it so it's all a bit weird 😜😆do you use that or not 🤷‍♀️🙈😬

@Minster2012 don’t worry, I am fine, today he got crossed, and kick some heavy metal draws, just to close to someone else, could have gotten hurt, he wouldn’t dare take me on, he is afraid of my mummy voice and I seem to have a special talent to make feel shit about himself, ie call him on his bullshit.

@Vil10 aw thanks lovely, it's starting to feel real! how's everything with you? X

@Katao oh no that's shit, I hope the fertility clinic has some answers, or even better that you get a BFP before you get to it 🤞🏻 X

@Minster2012 oh no I'm so sorry to hear that the next IVF might be delayed even longer now 😩 Gosh the due date must have been hard to take 😔 hope you managed to do something nice to take your mind off it? The Christmas list dildo made me lol 😂 our sex life has taken a turn since BFP 😩 x

@Newbie0818 sorry you've had a rubbish couple of days 😔 I think the whole lockdown situ / horrific weather on top of everything everyone has on anyway, just makes it all feel quite heavy doesn't it? At least some toys to cheer you up and distract you soon 😂😍 x

@lucyrp I'm with you on the weighing depression 😂 I don't feel like eating much at the min, but anything I do want to eat definitely isn't diet friendly 🙃 really hoping I can sort it out once I stop feeling sick otherwise I'll resemble a small whale soon 🐋 x

@Juno231 glad the SA results came back looking good! ☺️ x

@Juno231 don’t let the stress get too much, enjoy the house, @Vil10vil we use Celtic heritage names, quite hard when you need it to sound ok in English, Spanish and Portuguese
@lucyrp straighten that crown, the pill is vile, and might mess about some more

Thank you so much everyone. Fingers crossed this is a sticky bean and hangs around this time. You ladies have been a life saver and honestly I’m not going anywhere.

@Juno231 I tested a few times if I’m honest but all bfn. I got a whiff of a line at 14dpo but I mean you really did have to squint to see it but then 16dpo I got my second line

@Runnergirl1 wow that's an inspiring bfp! Any chance your OD was later than you originally thought? Your line is beautiful btw!

@Juno231 I think it must have been, around 2 days after, however ewcm and a peak cb advanced Says otherwise. But I checked two days later and had a high wide open cervix but we only had sex the day Before and day after cb said X

I used my last FRER sunday morning (bfn). I ordered some femometer test along with my thermometer and they arrived this morning but I've just looked and they are only 25mui 😭😭😭

Haven't caught up yet girls but I NEED to tell you all that I just bought my first ever sex toy!!!! It's just a little vibrator thingy, but I'm still feeling pretty proud of myself 👏🏼👏🏼

Ps these things are expensivvvve. $125 later..

@skip86 woooo get you!

So looks like I'm staying on the bus for now ladies. AF turned up in the night after a 26 day cycle. The month before was a 31 day cycle. She's doing my head in!
