Post Pill Party - The Mosh Pit !!

995 replies

Kay00 · 16/01/2021 20:33

As the Post Pill Party fills up, the lights are dimmed and the music drops a beat. The lead singer of this rambunctious band shouts: Mosh Pit!! The ravers all storm for the small space in front of the stage allowing their bodies to dance to the beat however the f* they want!! You go ladies!!

This is the 7th post pill party thread for women whose bodies aren’t quite dancing to the expected rhythm: we have delayed ovulation, crazy long follicular phases, crazy short follicular phases, light AFs, short luteal phases, long luteal phases, confusing temp charts and blindingly white OPKs!

In the crowd I can see:

@Juno231 Oh no that's so crap. You should definitely call them GP if you can though as it's better than the pain of it all.

@Sperr I'm on of the ones 1 day ahead of you! You can join our gang

@Gracie2021 😂 I've also been wearing 2 pairs of socks and my slippers too!

4dpo for me and the uti feeling is back with a vengeance (it was gone yesterday now back again!) . Woke up at 4.30 needing a wee and have been backwards and forwards to the bathroom since. Now sitting on the sofa 'working' with a hot water bottle and a pint of water!

Gracie2021 · 04/02/2021 09:39

@MissC07 @Juno231 are we jinxed? UTIs, thrush and cysts....... @Sperr not sure if you want to join this line up..... is it from DTD so often ye think? Never had cysts like this til we started TTC. @Juno231 def call the doctor. If it takes that long to be seen you can always call to cancel if you're better in a day or two. @MissC07 mind yourself. Attempting a positive spin - could look at the freq urination as the universe giving you practice for the months ahead

Sperr · 04/02/2021 09:58

@Juno231 that sounds awful! Hopefully you feel better soon!

@Gracie2021 without sounding stupid, what do the socks do 😂. I’m prepared to give everything a go now! Need to get my pineapple on my lunch today!

@MissC07 yay! I mean one of must be lucky the amount of us so close together!

I almost thought I had a UTI yesterday but I managed to drink a load of water and it went away thank god. I almost didn’t DTD because of it but I’m glad to know we can have a little rest now from it 🤣

Juno231 · 04/02/2021 10:04

@MissC07 aaah not a UTI! My recommendation is drinking a glass of water with 1tsp of bicarb in it - preferably on an empty stomach.

@Gracie2021 yeah definitely due to too much DTD I think! Saying that though I don't have all that much lol...

And don't worry girls, I've done all the grapefruit, pineapple, pomegranate stuff in the past too Grin

@Sperr hot feet to get knocked up! If they're cold you won't get that bfp apparently

MissC07 · 04/02/2021 10:13

@Juno231 @Sperr @Gracie2021 It's so annoying! It's like not a full on UTI (touch wood) and it only seems to be in the morning. But this morning was particularly burny (tmi!!) Will definitely try the bi-carb in a minute as haven't had breakfast yet - thank you! In positive news my temp went up again so just trying to focus on that.

ChinChilly · 04/02/2021 10:22

@Sperr I do like grapefruits I just never buy them because they’re a faff!

@Gracie2021 I think your doing/taking everything you can this time 😂 fingers crossed!

What’s this about cold feet and no BFP? My feet are always cold!

@MissC07 cranberry juice is supposed to be good for potential UTIs I thought I felt the start of one a while ago so I started downing the cranberry juice seemed to have done the trick

Sperr · 04/02/2021 10:23

@Juno231 literally just went upstairs to get socks now 🤣. I’ll be wearing a coat to bed at this rate trying to be warm

Sperr · 04/02/2021 10:24

@ChinChilly Sainsbury’s and co-op (way more expensive!) near me had the juice. I thought I would ovulate way later than I did so I still have loads spare 🤣

ChinChilly · 04/02/2021 10:28

@Sperr I need to pop to the supermarket at some point so I’ll have a look for some.

I am not painting my nails when I should be working from home 😂

Gracie2021 · 04/02/2021 10:39

@ChinChilly I reward myself checking this chat every time I finish a task 😂 if there no news here I go to the petty revenge thread on Reddit instead!

@Sperr well done for pushing through. I got days -1 and -2 but by O day I was so sore I just couldn't do it! Delicate creature that I am 😂

Sperr · 04/02/2021 10:43

@ChinChilly my OH is one of those people that will eat everything in the fridge so luckily he hates grapefruits so my juice was safe.

@Gracie2021 my OH kindly reminded me that Id feel bad if I didn’t do it and I didn’t fall this month. He only gives me these motivational talks when he wants to DTD and I can’t be bothered 😂

ChinChilly · 04/02/2021 10:47

@Gracie2021 I do the same, haha! I’m lacking any motivation today so nail painting and mouse wiggles it is 😂

Gracie2021 · 04/02/2021 11:27

@ChinChilly .....ahem..... mouse wiggles?

Gracie2021 · 04/02/2021 11:27

@ChinChilly oh wait computer mouse 😂😂😂 my friend has gerbils, my mind went to a strange place 🤣🤣🤣

ChinChilly · 04/02/2021 11:34

@Gracie2021 😂😂😂😂😂 omg that’s hilarious 🤣

Flowers222 · 04/02/2021 11:53

I can't stand grapefruit! But @Sperr mixing it with apple juice doesn't sound so bad! I definitely do the whole wearing socks thing, even in bed, as my feet are always cold and I had heard it can help to get a bfp. I am willing to try anything!

So I have no idea what is going on with me. No peak OPK yet though it got a little darker last night. But then I had a temp drop yesterday followed by a temp rise today so maybe yesterday was O day 🧐 I usually get 3 days of clear positive opks so will just see what my temps do over the next few days.

Juno231 · 04/02/2021 11:56

@Flowers222 like someone on here said recently - this TTC malarkey is just a whole bunch of "wait and see" isn't it!

Flowers222 · 04/02/2021 12:17

@Juno231 it really is! Every time I think I understand what is happening, my body decides to change things up a little to keep me on my toes 😅

TheDaydreamBelievers · 04/02/2021 13:21

@Gracie2021 you are making me feel like a TTC slacker - you are ON IT. I will need to read up on warm feet... We take a hot water bottle to bed a lot atm and I found myself worrying it could somehow prevent implantation or conceiving as I hold it against my tum sometimes Hmm

@Juno231 I'm so sorry you feel crap. Hoping that it clears up soon for you. Thrush is so awful and can be hard to get rid of when you are having lots of sex. I'm pretty prone to UTIs and am amazed that TTC hasn't made them come back with a vengeance.

FlyingGiraffe · 04/02/2021 13:28

Ladies, I need a hand hold please. After 12 days of spotting/bleeding then nothing the last two days, I noticed my temperature was still quite high above the cover line. I was thinking it was maybe because I'd slept bad last night, having gotten up twice to pee despite having had only a sip of water all evening. My boobs still felt huge like pre-AF and when I showed them to my DH he said on Tuesday night 'are you sure you're not pregnant?!😂' Well, that got in my head and I did a IC yesterday morning which had the faintest smudge on. So this morning I decided to do a Clearblue early detection. And it was positive. I'm in shock. And scared 😳😖 it's not a very strong line for 15dpo i dont think and I've had a hint of coloured discharge today. I'm just freaking out a little. Help! (Yes, I'm a crazy lady and tested twice using two batches of Frer's in case the first was a dud!)

Post Pill Party - The Mosh Pit !!
FlyingGiraffe · 04/02/2021 13:31

I meant FRER not clearblue! Argh. I'm clearly not thinking straight today!

Juno231 · 04/02/2021 13:50

@FlyingGiraffe aaah congrats! I wouldn't worry about the line - the top one looks strong to me and it could be due to a number of things! Slow rise, miscalculated ovulation day, diluted wee, late implantation etc. Looks great to me!

Flowers222 · 04/02/2021 13:52

Congrats @FlyingGiraffe you can definitely see those lines! As @Juno231 says I would try not to worry how dark they are at this point! Very exciting for you!

Gracie2021 · 04/02/2021 13:56

@FlyingGiraffe omg omg omg!!!! I love this. So you thought you were having your period for the last number of days and all along the bean was sticking. This is so exciting. All the fingers crossed the lines keep getting darker and darker for you.

Sperr · 04/02/2021 14:06

@FlyingGiraffe congratulations ❤️

I just ate the core of a pineapple as I read it’s supposed to help with implantation - that is disgusting 😂. I have also got some pomegranate juice which I will be trying for the first time in my life now
