Please add anybody I've missed off!

@Juno231 oh god, sounds like you’re having a right morning of it!! Work men have taken our stuff before it’s always random stuff aswell!

Well I’m not sure whats going on here, I had a heavy bleed yesterday with cramps from the moment I opened my eyes but today it’s virtually stopped, I expected more to be honest. I POAS this morning just to make sure it was negative (rule out ectopic) and it was stark white so who knows!

So sorry to hear about your CP @ChinChilly xxx

@LauraT94 congratulations!! 🥰

@ChinChilly so sorry to hear this! I was routing for you in the background!

@Kay00 go for soy!

CD17 here- I don’t want to jinx it but maybe just maybe the soy worked for me and I might have ovulated yesterday! I had a temp drop on CD16 and it’s gone high today but I’m on the wait and see (I’m still gonna keep DTD because I don’t trust my body 😂). Fingers crossed it did happen because I’m tired already 😂😂😂

@Sperr ahh thank you! I think I’m over the worst of it, yesterday was a nightmare but I feel more emotionally stable today lol! Hopefully you have ovulated and you can take a break 😂

@sperr Oh yey!! I'm hoping the Soy did help you and that you have ovulated! Has your cervix returned to a firm closed position (I always can tell when any ovulation attempts have ended because my cervix does this)??

@TheHotelCalifornia in answer to your question about Soy Iso, It could indeed help bring your Ov forward, but you need to only take it for 5 x days at the beginning of your cycle (eg. days 1-5, days 3-7 or days 5-10) and no later. There are some really informative threads on MN about Soy Iso that are worth reading

@Melissaq94 Ooh, interesting about the effect of hormones on your eyes. Our bodies are so complicated!

@abi555 Sorry to hear about your CP xx I think it is possible you have ovulated (temp rise after +OPK etc) but your pre-ovulation temps are quite high which makes it difficult to tell. And that might be because of your CP last cycle.

@Juno231 Meh - so sorry it looks like AF is on her way And double sorry for the damage the workmen have done! So annoying! My electricians too a circular saw to my floorboards, destroying them near every plug point we had installed (it was a complete re-wire) . We are slowly and painstakingly replacing and repairing them all!

Im on CD3 (or 4 if you count the first days of light spotting) so I will try taking Soy Iso from today. I'm not hopeful though. I have been quite poorly the last few days with fatigue, confusion and i'm very dizzy today. Yesterday (and to much lesser extent today... so far) I was in a huge amount of pain: I felt like i was being stabbed through the stomach, and everything feels very inflamed.

I need to talk to my doctor again. Its difficult to function like this. I certainly can't imagine falling pregnant. Damn my body .

@ChinChilly glad you're somewhat okay today!

@sperr CD16 for ovulation would be brilliant! Fingers crossed this is it.

Royally cheesed off with our remortgage process for the flat btw. First they were going to reject us if we didn't provide them with an EWS1 form (you know the one for cladding that's been all over the news since grenfell?). Except we're exempt from having one as we're under the height restrictions - but Halifax would have none of it and demanded one regardless. Luckily our management company had one commissioned in Feb 2020 and the report only just came through last month (!!). We passed the inspection of course but there's mention that some of the balconies (not ours!) have timber flooring and how it's probs best that gets replaced as it could be a risk. So Halifax are now genuinely trying to reject us on based on this - wtf!

First they want a form we don't have to have, and when we've provided it and shown that it passed they just change the goal posts again?!

@Juno231 that sounds really stressful! I heard about this happening on BBC Radio4 moneybox (or some similar program) its really unfair on property owners!

@ChinChilly I have my toes crossed that my temp goes up again tomorrow 😂. Glad to hear you’re feeling a bit better xx

@Kay00 if it hasn’t worked I’m planning on taking it days 2-6 instead next cycle. I did get headaches when I took it but I just drank shit loads of water to power through the pain. One of the days I did have to take paracetamol it was that bad.

@Juno231 that sounds like a nightmare! I can’t see why the whole timber balcony floor makes a difference if yours isn’t timber...so annoying 🙄 We are with Halifax..We were planning a remortgage to get the bigger works done to the house but I’m not sure I can be bothered with the stress!!

@Sperr everything crossed for you 🤞🏼

@sperr you could trying taking the soy before bed so you sleep through any headaches. But I woke up a few times in the night with palpitations, so I'm personally going to be taking them during the day.

@ChinChilly @kay00 ha the silly thing is that we had such issues with them last year for our current house mortgage that we actually had to file a complaint. So really we're nuts for even going down this route again. The case manager just called and they're on our side against the surveyor and want to file a complaint on our behalf lol!

@sperr @kay00 wow had no clue about the soy side effects. Makes my omega three fishy burps seem rather pleasant...

@juno231 yes, the Soy is pretty powerful stuff, which was why I was so upset when I didn't ovulate at all after taking it 😫

Sounds like you'll be going down the complaint root again!

@Juno231 I had to complain to Halifax a couple of years ago, they changed my address to some random address and i only found out when I tried to switch my current account and it got rejected. The customer service woman even told me that I must of changed it because I would of had to produce ID, even though I obviously had no ID for this random address.

I was having a moan about it at work and one of the women i work with said Halifax changed her status on thier mortgage to ‘deceased’ and even sent her husband a bunch of flowers 😳

Good that they are on your side though, hopefully it gets sorted soon

@Kay00 @Sperr also had no idea about those side effects of the soy, sounds horrible!

Hey again everyone,

I was just wondering if I could have some advice? I got my peak OPK and solid smiley yesterday at 6pm. Today I tested at 12:30 and it was still high but not peak and I’ve just done another one and the control line is lighter than the test line. What does this mean in regards to when I will or did ovulate? Does it mean I already have done? Sorry it’s just so confusing I can’t get my head around it! 😂

@ChinChilly luckily I’d read about some people getting headaches so I was prepared!

@Kay00 oooh I may try them before bed!

I’ve just remembered I didn’t take my vitamin this morning but I’m already cosy in bed 🤔🤔

@Chloerobinson97 Sounds like your peak was last night and you can expect to ovulate either today or tomorrow, best jump OH today if you can!

@Kay00 thank you! I better get bd’ing 😂

Hi ladies. Today I got a letter with an appointment at the fertility clinic in May. I’m so shocked as my GP only referred me on Monday.

@Sperr thank you! Fingers crossed Ovulation has already happened! 🤞🏻

@Juno231 I'm sorry it looks like you're having a short LP this cycle, seems odd after your long one last cycle! And as for the house etc... 😱 Fuming! Really feel for you.

@Kay00 I'm sorry you're feeling so shit, it really doesn't sound ideal! I have everything crossed for a clear Ovulation for you this cycle though 🤞🏻

I woke up with my mouth open 😫. So I’m still on the wait and see if ovulation happened 😫😫😫.

Hi guys, been a bit low about the whole tt thing this month so just trying to ignore it hence haven't been on here much at all. Following the same approach as you @abi555 Just catching up on all the updates now.

@Tillybabs that's fantastic it's happening so quickly for you. That's a great GP.

@Juno231 tradesmen can create such frustration. I was bawling down the phone at someone over a door yesterday. In his defense it was mainly PMS and not the door itself 😂 for the sake of some extra effort your poor cornicing and floor. Sorry about the temp drop too.

@Sperr fingers crossed for the O! @Sperr @Kay00 those are some heavy side effects. Hope ye see the benefits from taking the soy to make up for it. @Juno231 I hear you on the omega 3 burps 🙈

@ChinChilly im so sorry for your loss. Gutted for you. Mind yourself xxx

@Gracie2021 thanks yes my GP is great! I’m really happy they are moving so quickly especially with AF on the way, it cheered me up.

@Kay00 you poor thing. The inflammation sounds awful. I really hope you get some answers and solutions soon.

@Juno231 house stuff can be so stressful. Sorry you had a rubbish day and it’s so disappointing seeing the temps drop and having a shorter lp. It feels like you’re going backwards sometimes doesn’t it. Although for me that lp would be amazing 😂

@Sperr same thing happened with me!! So annoying. I woke up at 5 so decided it to take it but it was super low and I’m super clogged up at the moment - think it’s hay fever. But I went back to sleep and then woke up again, closed my mouth for a few minutes and it was much higher but I feel like I’m cheating lol.

@LauraT94 how many dpo are you now? You must be having some seriously dark lines. Any symptoms? Have you told your doc?

@ChinChilly glad you’re feeling better and starting a fresh cycle.

@Tillybabs that’s great! Super quick.

@Gracie2021 do you think AF is about to come?

5dpo here but my temps are not as good as last cycle so already feeling like it hasn’t happened and presume a short lp is inevitable as usual. Which means cycle 12 is in the horizon which is obviously a milestone I didn’t want to get to. DH has his SA next week so we’ll see how that goes I guess.

@cams50 @Gracie2021 ha I did end up crying yesterday over the house stuff but mainly because I felt OH was being dismissive about all the things I said - definitely tears fuelled by hormones though. Once he realised it would be over £100 to buy a new gate door plus extras for painting it he was a bit more apologetic...

@sperr that's when you close your trap, wait for 5 min and take the temp anyway! I sleep with a mouthguard so wake up with an open mouth maybe every third day I reckon.

12DPO and had a temp rise so took a cheapie just in case but obv BFN. Spotting now so just waiting for AF to show.

@LauraT94 @cams50 although the variability of my LP is still annoying it's easy to forget and therefore not be grateful for my FLIPPIN POST PILL ACNE finally being gone. I legit didn't get a single spot this TWW whereas last year I was a bona fide pepperoni pizza face.
