Post Pill Party - The Mosh Pit !!

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:

@ChinChilly so sorry about your covid result. Sucks. Vomiting sounds awful too. Maybe it's the variant. Get better soon! At least it explains your recent wild temps!!

@abi555 hope it's not your period!! I'm due on on Monday too. Meh.

FlyingGiraffe · 20/01/2021 18:23

@Cams50 @MissC07 @Moocher90 Thanks! Daffodil I've been getting what I think are ovulation pains all day. It feels like my insides are on fire - im not sure that's the best way to describe it but it's definitely a weird feeling!

@Moocher90 - That's great you got a temp rise this morning. I tested with a IC opk last night and this morning (as well as the clearblue digital...I obviously like poas!) - it was an even stronger line this morning so I'm hoping I get a rise tomorrow morning.

@ChinChilly Hope you feel better soon!

@TheDaydreamBelievers I'll be joining the TWW soon I think! It's so nice to talk to people in the same boat isn't it! Definitely don't think you're out this month.

Keeping my fingers crossed for some BFP's in this group soon!

abi555 · 20/01/2021 19:02

@Flowers222 aaaah, thank you! I have changed the settings and now I have dots instead of triangles Grin

Cams50 · 20/01/2021 19:28

So I’ve just had some bleeding. I’m only 7dpo. This is my worst lp yet. I know it doesn’t necessarily mean fill AF as it’s more spotting but I do get spotting every time before AF plus my temp drop today. Feeling super fed up. Do I call this CD1 or no?

@Juno231 I know you’re seeing the fertility specialist. Did you get bloods etc done before the one year mark? Do you think I should get onto my GP again or is there no point until it’s been a year.

@FlyingGiraffe that must be ovulation pains!! Exciting x

Kay00 · 20/01/2021 20:46

@ChinChilly oh no!! Get better soon!! My sister had Covid and lost her sense of smell and taste... she loved it because the only thing she liked to eat was salad... and she has lost a stone and a half in weight, she calls it the best diet ever Grin. In all seriousness though, I hope your symptoms don't get any worse xx

@cams50 I was having very short LP until I started taking a B-Complex vitamin with an additional B12 top up, and now my LP are all 11 days+. Don't count today as CD1 just yet, wait to see what tomorrow brings x

Cams50 · 20/01/2021 21:25

@Kay00 thanks ❤️ I know I need to chill out. I did try B vitamins very briefly but then I stopped taking them. Not really sure why. I think between taking that and pregnacare I was worried I was overdoing it on b vitamins but think I probably need that at this stage! Hope your inflammation symptoms have eased a bit x

Juno231 · 20/01/2021 22:28

@Cams50 I went at the 7 cycle mark but stressed the early menopause history in my family and they seem to have progressed from there as if I'd passed the year mark. I know others just say it's been a year if they're worried something is wrong so maybe you can just go ahead and do that?

Cams50 · 20/01/2021 22:34

@Juno231 thanks. I think they’d know from my last pill prescription that it hasn’t been the year yet. Oh well. We’ll see what the next few cycles bring 🤞🏻

Juno231 · 21/01/2021 07:56

@Cams50 nah - all you have to say is that you considered going back on it but then didn't or that you planned on going on holiday and wanted to skip a period but didn't or whatever. If it makes you feel uncomfortable though you've got nothing to lose in just having a call with your gp and expressing your concerns?

Cams50 · 21/01/2021 08:01

@Juno231 thanks. Yeah I might try calling them. I feel bad as I know how busy they must be at the moment. I guess I can see what they say.

@ChinChilly how are you feeling today?

ChinChilly · 21/01/2021 08:13

Hi all,

Thank you for all your well wishes!

@Kay00 that’s hilarious about your sister and the salad, I find I’m not eating much because well what’s the point 😂 plus I’m still vomitting so whatever goes in doesn’t tend to stay in.

@Cams50 I’m ok, thank you asking. It seems to come in waves so one minute I’ll feel fine the next I feel like I’ve been hit by a bus. The brain fog is real aswell 😂 When I think back I think I actually had the worsen of it over the weekend and didn’t realise

Covid doesn’t seem to have effected my temps apart from that one rouge temp so I’ve been keeping up with the BBT

Cams50 · 21/01/2021 08:29

@ChinChilly your chart is looking great! Hopefully you’re over the worst of it. Fair play for powering through with DTD during covid. That’ll be quite the conception story if you get your bfp this month!! 🤞🏻😂

ElizabethP141 · 21/01/2021 12:48

@ChinChilly sending good vibes for getting well soon!!

How long does everyone’s EWCM last? I’ve got the start of some today. OPKs progressing but still definitely negative so just curious to know!!

Elsie2021 · 21/01/2021 12:58

9dpo today. Got some back and tummy ache. Hoping it’s implantation but panicking because I’ve had an 8 day LP before and I really don’t want to be going backwards :(

How are the other TWWers feeling?

crabette · 21/01/2021 13:01

Just checking in ladies - hope you recover soon @ChinChilly 😢 Can't believe we've got a COVID BFP!

I'm on CD19, and after EIGHT days of "high" CB OPK results, I've finally got a peak today!! So will get BDing, though my OH says he's knackered from the past 8 days as it is 🙈

I've not temped at all this month, but think will try the next few days to see if I can see a confirmed rise or if my temps are in my post-O range.

Next challenge is luteal length... @Kay00 what B vits are you taking? And are you taking them full cycle length? I'm taking pregnacare atm which already has B12 in, but not sure if I'm missing something?

abi555 · 21/01/2021 13:08

@Elsie2021 Fingers crossed that is implantation and not AF coming for you!

TWW update 10DPO - I'm completely confused by my body today!! Absolutely convinced I was out and AF was coming yesterday (to the point that I booked my covid vaccine and ordered a load of new TTC supplements). Had tiny amount of spotting, low + hard cervix and very dry CM yesterday. Woke this morning expecting temp to have plummeted and it's actually gone up! 36.67 -> 36.81. So no idea what to think now!

I did have a bit of a disturbed night as had such a vivid dream of my bedroom mirror tickling me that I jerked awake and semi-screamed and scared my OH half to death ahhahaha! So maybe that accounts for the temp rise.

Will just have to wait and see what happens I suppose! Testing saturday am, but will probably have AF before then.

abi555 · 21/01/2021 13:14

@ChinChilly sounds horrendous!! Really hope you start to feel better soon!

@crabette woooo for peak reading!! I'm sure you can convince OH haha!

Elsie2021 · 21/01/2021 13:14

@abi555 I think that all sounds pretty promising! I’ve heard disturbed sleep and vivid dreams is a symptom! Fingers crossed for you 🙂

Kay00 · 21/01/2021 13:44

@abi555 ooh... fingers crossed AF doesn't show!!

@crabette I was only taking the B-Complex after ovulation, but I am going to start taking it all the way through the cycle. Other ladies (including Juno) take it throughout. I take a B Complex on top of the B vits in my pre-conception multi vitamin, so i'm getting a super dose of the B12 (500ug) and B6 (100mg). I think the Complex is important for helping you absorb the B12. Honestly, it worked on the first cycle I used it and I haven't had a whiff of a short LP since!

@abi555 Oooooh yeah I've heard vivid dreams as a symptom too. Fingers crossed no AF and for another high temp tomorrow!

@Kay00 Thanks - I've just ordered a B Complex online for delivery tomorrow - can't find one with as high doses as yours lol but seems to be 10mg B6 and 25ug B12, which looks like it'll top up my pre-conception vits a fair bit! Will start taking tomorrow and see how that goes - my luteals are normally about 10 days, so don't think it's medically classed as short but right on the border so I worry it's having an effect!

SalemsPot22 · 21/01/2021 15:59

I think I might have a really squinty line. Fiancé can’t see it but me and my friend can so going to test again in a few days!

MissC07 · 21/01/2021 16:31

@ChinChilly So sorry to hear about covid test result! I hope you're managing to get as much rest as possible.

@abi555 fingers crossed for you!! And good luck with your move tomorrow. The dream about the mirror really made me laugh 😂

@crabette yay for the peak reading!

CD21 for me, temp has dropped again and I'm still getting low on Premom, high on femometer OPK's. Hoping something happens one way or another soon (mostly so I can stop burning through OPK's 🙈)

LauraT94 · 21/01/2021 16:41

@ChinChilly hope you're not feeling too rough today with the sickness! Covid BFP is not the one we're all wishing for haha!

@abi555 vivid dreams were one of my biggest early symptoms! It was 10dpo that I started to feel like I might be pregnant (also had awful trapped wind which I hadn't had since I was a kid!). That night I had such weird dreams about having a baby boy! Made it through to 5.30am before I got up to test and got my BFP at 11dpo! Good luck, hope this is it for you.

I've been having a rough time with my body messing me around with my MMC but I'm hoping it's finally over now... Already started doing ICs to check for my BFN 😂 impatient to be trying again!

MancMama39 · 21/01/2021 17:46

@ChinChilly hope you're doing ok, my BIL has the new strain we think as he had a positive test and has the sickness too, it sounds awful, hope you can get some rest and recover quickly.

Still having the smallest bit of browny pink spotting on and off, but very surprisingly have made it to 10dpo now. Trying really hard not to let myself hope... 2 weeks away from my 40th birthday... oof when AF does flow they'll be tears!!! If I can get through the weekend will test but I've prob jinxed it coming on here. But worse case, a longer LP is a good thing so I'll take that?

Fingers crossed everyone else in the 2ww Xx

Nellieee · 21/01/2021 17:48

@Cams50 how are things looking for you today? Spotting stopped?

@abi555 good luck with the move and Saturday morning test! I've been feeling like I'm going to come on any minute too. Gah! Good that your temps have gone up though. Mine have gone down past few days but still above cover. Grr.

@crabette woohoo for a peak!

@Elsie2021 aw I hope it's not. Have your LP got longer? I had similar at around the same time. Nothing since.

10dpo and I keep convincing myself that: a) I feel sick b) my boobs ache c) I have backache d) I have everything else that I've ever read about early symptoms. I am useless in the TWW. Don't think wfh helps. Temps dropped last two days so... 🤷‍♀️
