Thread 2!
Will try to tag everyone who was active recently in the old thread, but sorry if I missed anyone. And if you're one of the many who got BFPs in the old thread and you're currently wading through the dark depths of morning sickness, feel free to ignore us 😊

Oh ladies. I am feeling like poop today! Cd26

BFN yesterday (attached). Which I only took because of weird shooting pains. But today I've woken up hot and actually thrown up a little bit as soon as i got to the bathroom. So weird!

Is it possible to get nausea before a BFP? Or am I just ill? 😅

Oh no @Pudding01 sorry you're feeling rubbish. When is the date range you'd expect AF to arrive? If you're super regular and always 28 days I reckon it would probably have showed on the frer by now. By if you sometimes have longer cycles you're def still in!
Don't think the sickness can be related though... if you don't have enough HCG yet to show on a frer then I can't imagine it could make you feel sick? I guess everyone's got different HCG sensitivity though!

Aww @Pudding01 I’m sorry you’re feeling rubbish and about the bfn. Like @HerringGull said guess it depends when you think AF is due? Hope you feel better and that she stays away!!!

According to last 2 cycles she may come tomorrow or Monday, as I had a 28 and 29 day cycle. No idea when I ovulated to know where in my cycle I am 🙈 sickness went by late morning and I just napped from 3-5pm lol

Tested today, Cd27 and getting deja vu with the squinter 😅 Staying as casual as I can lol x

I can see that @Pudding01! 🤩

I hate this bit 😅 So glad you can see it and I'm not going mad! Already convinced myself it will be the same as last month & AF will come. Don't want to be disappointed again 🙈 I will test again tomorrow. Reallyyyy hoping it gets stronger 🙏 x

I don't believe it... AF has come early! 😟
BD this morning and had some light pink spotting after, but thought nothing of it. Now full flow. I give up. Guess it was yet another evap line! Thought FR were meant to be reliable x

Oh no @Pudding01 😔 Do you think maybe it was a chemical? I'm really sad for you anyway, whatever it was. It's so cruel when you get your hopes up xxx

Oh @Pudding01 I’m so sorry. Maybe a chemical? They are so cruel ☹️ Hope you are able to do something nice for yourself today and have a good rest.

You poor thing @Pudding01. I'm sorry this has happened. Take care of yourself lovely 💕 sending hugs your way.

Makes me feel a bit stupid when I post the pics with the faint line on and then AF comes 🙈 Was so shocked to see her early, especially after what I thought was a BFP 😭

Very weird period though. Yesterday was so painful in my lower back and hip. Started with the painless pink spotting. Then more flow which looked bright red, but never filled a tampon. Then today so light again with a bit of red earlier then pink spotting again. Still not enough to fill a tampon. Really can't understand why it came early but is so light 🤷🏼‍♀️ maybe I'm just still irregular after coming off the mini pill in October. Not having fun any more though lol

Update - just want to check as feeling 'wet' and minus a small dot of pink it's like the watery cm you get during ovulation. Any one experienced anything similar? Weirdest AF ever 😅

@Pudding01 sorry, never happened to me yet. So frustrating when our bodies do these weird things eh 😔
Keep us posted how you're getting on xx

Hey @Pudding01. Have you considered doing another HPT? It could be weird implantation bleeding. I think you'll get your answer that way. But sometimes cycles change for no reason at all. Or you could be going through an unfortunate chemical 🙁 how are things this morning?

So today was some more pink spotting this morning and now brown spotting with some more cm. So would suggest I'm coming to the end of whatever this is...

My DD got me up at 5am and I went to the loo, so I didn't use fmu and it was BFN.

Cervix high and tilted back.

Feel rough as today 😕 Hot, irritable, bloated, gassy, very tired and back ache.

Without the weird bleeding, how many DPO would you be? @Pudding01

@unCliche i wish I knew. Had I of tracked, I could have had more of an idea as to what's happening.

Last 2 cycles I ovulated cd17 and cd16.
This all started cd27. So if it's AF but a spotting AF for 3 days then I'm cd3 today. If not and something is up then I'm cd29 today.

@Pudding01 so your AF should be due today? Give it a few more days to see what happens then take another HPT. Although you did get a faint line before so the only explantation would be a chemical. But since your bleeding is light, I can't be too sure about that either! I wish we had answers for you! The body rarely makes any sense 😔 sorry you're going through so much confusion!

@Pudding01@unCliche@HerringGull I’ve stopped getting message alerts, sorry feel like I’ve missed loads!

@Pudding01 sorry to see what’s happened not nice at all but your period sounds odd, definitely maybe test again in a few days and if not as you said maybe linked to mini pill

Looks like it was just an extremely light AF, so must have ovulated cd13/14... That's all I can think of as that is when i had the cramps on FF. Maybe I didn't ovulate at all... But I must have done for the symptoms? No idea why I had such a weird and painful cycle!

@Pudding01 that's really strange, but at least you are now definitely into the next cycle. I hope you're not too sad about it :( It's so hard to deal with it all sometimes. I especially hate that the disappointment days each cycle always coincide with the day or two I feel sad because of period hormones - just doubles the misery!
Are you planning to track this cycle?

@Pudding01 - Sorry, negatives are never nice. Do you think it could have been a chemical. I did have a faint positive early Nov I then came on really heavy, 2 weeks early and for a few days. I think had another period 2 weeks later. I cannot be sure if it was a chemical or not but it was definitely unusual for me. I then fell the following month :) x

@Pudding01 how are you feeling? So sorry that cycle didn’t work out for you- time to enjoy FW again soon and we’ll all be keeping our fingers crossed for you!
How’s everyone else too?

Hey @EllyNC I'm 8dpo today. Much better chart than usual, higher temps in LP means more progesterone right?
It's sunny here, just been out for a nice walk, although the northerly is a bit fierce! We had takeaway last night as a treat and it was really tasty - lots of leftovers for tonight That's about the excitement in my life just now! Been dreaming a lot about getting a puppy but it isn't really practical just now sadly. Sensible to wait until post-extension building.
What's going on with you? You have a young dog, don't you? How's s/he coming along?

Wooo @HerringGull glad your chart is looking good! Are you going to hold out to test?
Weather is bloomin’ miserable here so I’m jealous of your sun!!! And of your takeaway Actually- my diet is mostly consisting of crisps currently as it’s about all I can stomach- baby is 8 weeks now and I am feeling rouuuuugh!!!! No dog sadly (one day!!) but a very active one year old who has decided he doesn’t like naps 🤣🤣so all in all I’m exhausted but getting by!!
I don’t want to be the devil on your shoulder here but I think a puppy sounds like an amaaaaazing idea!!!!!!
