Post Pill Party - The Mosh Pit !!

[Kay00]

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:

@FlyingGiraffe sorry to hear of your news this morning xx it’s a positive that you can get pregnant and I really hope there’s a sticky bean real soon for you

@FlyingGiraffe sorry to hear this. Hope you’re doing okay 💙

@Kay00 I paid for the premium on FF so I feel better now 😂. Really fun (how sad am I) to put in my RHR as well which has followed pretty much the same pattern. It went back up yesterday so I’m thinking my temp will rise again tomorrow

Oh @FlyingGiraffe I’m so sorry to hear your news
Look after yourself I can only imagine how the last few days have been ❤️

@FlyingGiraffe I'm really sorry that has happened! Glad you can take some positives from it though! Take care of yourself x

@FlyingGiraffe I’m sorry this has happened. It’s great you’ve taking some positives from it. Look after yourself! xx

Sorry I've not been on in a while had so much going on at home and with work 😩

@FlyingGiraffe just saw your message and I'm so sorry! When we were trying for my son a similar thing happened we had a week of positive tests (although faint) then started bleeding. It's ok to feel sad, I kept telling myself it was early and people go through much worse and wasn't sure if I even had the right to be upset but you do, if you need to take time to process it's ok ❤️
Glad you're seeing the positives that's what the dr told me and reassured that it just wasn't viable nothing I did to cause it or could've done to change it.
My cycle the following month was normal I counted the first day of bleeding as my period and ovulated bang on time as I usually did and conceived again that month and he's now sat watching cartoons 🙈 wishing you lots of luck for your next cycle 🤞🏻

I hope everyone else is doing ok, lots and lots of messages to read through 🙈😍

❤ Thank you @Kay00 @Moocher90 @ChinChilly @Robyn101 @Sperr @firsttimemummy321 @Flowers222 @MissC07 Its such a lovely group here. Thankful to have you all! And thanks for sharing your positive story @firsttimemummy321 I can only hope we have the same luck 🤞

Let normal Sunday analysing resume anyway...I dont want to be a debbie downer on the thread! I started on the B complex today you recommended @kay00. How are you getting on?

I'm sorry to hear about your chemical / v early MC @FlyingGiraffe. I hope better days come soon

Random TMI Q - do you guys ever have cycle days where you just SMELL? I promise I shower every day and clean bedding and all but my armpits this morning are awful! Not my usual sweat smell either

@thedaydreambelievers 😆 its hard to remember my last LP, but I tend to get night sweats when my temps shoot up... and I usually wake up a stinky sweaty mess 😆

@flyinggiraffe im ok thank you xx just waiting. I had a temp drop this morning which I hope means my estrogen is rising, but I might have just been sleeping with my mouth open. OPKs still negative.

Good luck with the BVits! They work wonders for me xx

@FlyingGiraffe I'm sorry you had to experience that! I can only hope this cycle is better to you! 🤞🏻❤️

@minipilling I would imagine you still have a way to go if you've only just stopped spotting but I'm no expert haha! Best thing to do is just keep testing and checking for cm!

@Juno231 how are you coping in the TWW? 7dpo today?

@Moocher90 I'm sorry you've got the worry of hashimotos/thyroid issues. Hopefully the blood tests shed some more light!

@Sperr my fingers are crossed for a temp rise for you!

No idea what my body's doing... 🤔 FF has given me dotted cross hairs for the 1st but I really don't think that was it! Was definitely a LH surge around that time though. Temp was a bit meh this morning so no idea 🤷🏼‍♀️ yesterday was the first day my OPKs got stronger throughout the day though, so maybe a peak today?! Trying to hold my wee a bit longer/drink less as I pee every hour if not and it's too dilute to read.

@FlyingGiraffe I’m so sorry 😢 that must be so difficult and disappointing. As you say though, a positive that you got pregnant but still heart breaking 😔❤️ I’m also trying the b vits today.

@Kay00 hope the temp dip is the sign of ovulation on it’s way! CD19 here and still nothing so feel like it’s another long and weird cycle for me. My CD21 blood test isn’t going to show anything but maybe that’s a good thing in a way as he’ll take me seriously hopefully and maybe refer me quicker I don’t know. Still can’t get DH’s SA booked in.

@LauraT94 hmm confusing. Hopefully you have ovulated or else it’s on it way. I always try to drink loads in the morning as water is good for cm etc but then dehydrate myself in the afternoon for my OPK test 😂

@Kay00 maybe, I hope my temps are about to rise but OPKs still blank and temps still low 🤔

@Kay00 really hope the dip means ovulation is on the way. Do you usually catch your peak on opks?

@LauraT94 I think it is hard to see if you have ovulated as your temps have been so high and slowly coming down so it doesn't look like a big rise. Hopefully it comes clear soon!

Anyone here use cb opks? How many days of flashing do you usually get? I've been using them for a few days and got a flashing smiling face today! So hoping that means something is going to happen soon but no idea how long it might be until I get peak

@FlyingGiraffe I am so sorry to hear your news, got everything crossed for you next time, it will happen Xxx

@FlyingGiraffe I'm so sorry this has happened. Take care of yourself xx

Update for today: still no smiley! -draws another line on prison wall tally-

@minipilling I feel you! CD19 and nothing! If it helps I spot for a long time too. Last cycle I spotted until CD12 and ovulated CD23. Hope it happens for us both soon. Sooooo much waiting and seeing when ttc 😫

Also prison wall tally 😂😂😂

Hi all, sorry for being a bit MIA!

@FlyingGiraffe so sorry to hear your news. Hope you're doing okay and glad to hear you are taking some positives from this

@LauraT94 hhmmm, your chart is a bit confusing... I'm not convinced you ovulated when FF says you did.... I'd keep testing and temping and hopefully will become clearer in a few more days

How are our TWW'ers getting on??

I'm very confused by my body, and a bit fed up as we did the DTD loads over last 10 days covering for predicted FW which ended a few days ago and still no temp spike to suggest O so looks like all that sex was not helpful for a BFP! Had a positive OPK on friday and previous month temp shot up the next day. We're now 2 days later and nothing so I'm wondering if had a LH surge but didn't ovulate. It's taking it's toll on me and OH all this scheduled DTD! We're more 1-2x a week sort of people and DTD is knackered with work and fed up with the schedule, and I'm just like gah, body, come ON, then we can be in LP and just go back to enjoying sex again whenever we feel like it!

/endrant

Hi all! Sorry I've been quiet.

@FlyingGiraffe I'm so sorry it was a CP but as you said, it's amazing to know you can get a bfp and if the bean wasn't meant to be your body has done the right thing by sparing you later heart ache ❤️

@LauraT94 hmm yeah I wouldn't go by the crosshairs either - looks like ovulation is yet to happen potentially. I'm sorry it's dragging - must be so frustrating!

@Kay00 How's your bowel inflammation /fodmap diet going?

Yup 7dpo today. Chart attached. Had lower back pain and uterus twinges yesterday but nothing today other than tender breasts/nips 😬. Good old progesterone messing with my head.

Hey @Juno231 - where do you find HR on FF (is it a paid for feature)

Crossing my fingers for you this month

@Juno231 your chart is looking good for 7DPO x fingers crossed for you

@Juno231 your chart is looking good 😉 this maybe the month 🤞🏼

@abi555 I think you’ve both earned yourself a night off!!

@Moocher90 how are you feeling about your thyroid stuff now? I’ve got my GP phone call tomorrow, I’m kinda nervous because I know I need to lay it on thick to get them to do anything!

Hope everyones had a good weekend! Dreading the commute to my dining room table tomorrow 😂

@ChinChilly unfortunately if I didn’t do a private test I would never have known as GP would prob never complete a re-test unless my TSH was over 5. Will speak to the out of hours GP on Sunday which goes in my favour as my actual GP was a dick and very dismissive when he gave me my results in December but did refer me to an endo when I discussed my concerns but the out of hours who ordered the tests and previous female hormone tests was so much more understanding. I think you really have to be pushy and advocate for yourself and tell them how you are feeling symptoms wise. I am going to keep fighting it as if it’s affecting my ovulation I may never ovulate without help. We shall see this cycle as I’m only CD7 and my body had a peak opk on CD17-18 last cycle. I am making lifestyle changes with the gf and df and walking atleast 10k steps a day and will try spin 3 times a week too. Losing some weight will help as well and already lost 9lbs in 5 weeks.

@Moocher90 my GP was the same, really dismissive and generally not interested! Hopefully the GP I speak tomorrow will be more understanding, I am going to really play my face though otherwise I’ll get nowhere. It’s good that you got a referal to an endo though! I’m trying to go GF but I have failed miserably over the weekend. I’m definitely trying to do more exercises and generally eat better and hope that helps. That’s a great loss for 5 weeks well done xx

@TheDaydreamBelievers it's a premium function I'm afraid! It doesn't recognise it as rhr per se, you can just choose to add a second line to plot of whatever it is that you want it to be.
