Swing your partners round and round (the bedroom). Grab a spot and put your best checked shirt on. We're all stepping together to create some seriously strong lines - Yee-Haw! Now let's get making some cowboys (and girls!) It's time to begin now count it in...5...6...7...8!

This is the 9th post pill party thread for women whose bodies are a bit out of sync post pill. So pull up a hay bale and share your stories of dreary delayed ovulation, fascinating follicular phases, lively luteal phases and terrific temp charts.

@AllyCat31 haha!

@Juno231 @Flowers222 @ChinChilly bum! So sorry that its not looking hopeful again this cycle.

I'm 4DPO and i'm going to try and speak with a doctor/my GP surgery about getting some day 21 bloods taken on Friday/Sat (7 or 8 DPO) as ovulation is such a rare occurrence for me, I couldn't have possibly predicted when Ov would have been - haha! But its a pretty last minute request!

ChinChilly · 06/04/2021 13:32

@Gracie2021 @Kay00 I mean I am only 11dpo and it wasn’t FMU and was quite diluted but I think I’m just making excuses for myself 😂

Robyn101 · 06/04/2021 13:54

@AllyCat31 I had really long cycles but would use OPKs and BBT to track ovulation. When I got my BFP the FF app just added 2 weeks back from my ovulation date

I’ve had an early scan this morning and the dates match up perfectly (6+4) , so I’d suggest trying to track Ov if your cycles are haywire HYH

Robyn101 · 06/04/2021 13:54

HTH*

Flowers222 · 06/04/2021 13:59

Thanks @Juno231 @ChinChilly @Gracie2021 @Kay00 I've eaten a whole Easter egg and feeling a bit better (if a little sick now!) I had a chat with my OH and he just said we have plenty of time, it will happen when it happens and everything will be ok. But I want it to happen now 😅

@ChinChilly I'm really sorry you got a bfn too and @Juno231 sorry your temp dropped. Sounds like we all need a bit of pampering this week.

@Kay00 hope they can squeeze you in for your day 21 tests!

ChinChilly · 06/04/2021 14:05

@Flowers222 my OH says exactly the same thing 😂

@Cams50 I’m listening to the making babies podcast is it the one with Andrea Byrne? I’m literally sitting here nodding my head 😂 especially when they are talking about obsessive googling 🤣🤣

AMS19 · 06/04/2021 14:08

@Kay00 not sure if helpful but as a backup Medichecks have a sale on and I've just ordered the 21 day test for £31. You can get next day delivery if needed. There as an option if thr GP can't help

AllyCat31 · 06/04/2021 14:26

Hey @Robyn101 I’ve been doing that and thankfully I know exactly when I ovulated. I meant more, how do the nhs work it out and the best way to get them to give you an accurate DD but I think when the time comes I’ll just be honest with the GP and hopefully get an extra dating scan

Robyn101 · 06/04/2021 15:18

@AllyCat31 Yep so because my periods were all over when I booked in for my 1st appointment I just told them how far along I believed I was due to ovulation and they’ve gone from there - they don’t have to use your LMP if it would make no sense (mine was January so made zero sense) ☺️

AllyCat31 · 06/04/2021 15:23

@Robyn101 awesome thank you. I’ll just be happy if I have that problem tbh, the TWW is getting to me and my husband asks about stuff almost every day... as if I can make time go faster 😂

Cams50 · 06/04/2021 16:06

@ChinChilly yea that’s the one!! It’s good isn’t it. I know I felt they were talking about me 😂 Sorry about the bfn but as you said yourself you’re only 11dpo and didn’t use fmu so you’re not just yet 🤞🏻

@Robyn101 how exciting about the early scan. Sounds like it’s all going really well 😀

ChinChilly · 06/04/2021 16:13

@Cams50 So did I, I actually got abit teary so surely that means AF is defo on the way 🙄

Robyn101 · 06/04/2021 16:14

@Cams50 Thankyou ☺️ Didn’t feel exciting this morning. Had horrendous shoulder pain so got myself in a right panic about it being ectopic. Thankfully it isn’t and smudge is growing in the right place so I can breathe again and sit on my hands for the next 6 weeks

Juno231 · 06/04/2021 16:49

Who is setting up the next bus btw? We'll need one in the next day or so I imagine!

Kay00 · 06/04/2021 17:42

@robyn101 ahh, that's good to hear Easter Smile

@Cams50 @ChinChilly I clearly need to check out this pod cast. I have been trying to encourage my OH to read around the subject/listen to pod casts ... or do something to affiliate himself with the world of TTC and babies... or it all going to come as a very big shock to him one day!

@juno231 - well spotted! I'm happy to drive but is there anyone else who would like to give it a go this time? We will need to think of a theme... we have had discos, mosh pits and country line dancing... whats next??

Flowers222 · 06/04/2021 18:05

@Robyn101 smudge! I love that 😊 so glad everything is going well for you

@Kay00 maybe fitting with the times we need some sort of chilly garden party

MissC07 · 06/04/2021 18:22

@Juno231 @Kay00 @Flowers222 definitely agree, we need some sort of chill out session. Sort of magic fm in the back of a taxi on the way home from a night out vibe 😂

OP posts:
Cams50 · 06/04/2021 20:16

@Kay00 yes it’s a great listen!

@ChinChilly it made me a bit teary too but AF does stay away! Think I’m emotional at the best of times 🤣

@Flowers222 @MissC07 yes love the chilly garden vibe!

ChinChilly · 06/04/2021 20:22

@Cams50 I think it made me realise the emotional strain of it all. I listened to another one earlier called girls with no filter - breaking the silence on miscarriage I think it may of been 3 girls out a towie (never watched it so I’m not sure) it’s not just about miscarriage, the one girl had 2 loses at 6 weeks and she just talks about the whole TTC stuff...she quickly mentioned being on mumsnet at 3 oclock in the morning 😂😂 that was a good one aswell totally related to everything she said.

@MissC07 @Kay00 love the sound of a garden party!

FlyingGiraffe · 06/04/2021 20:43

@Juno231 @Flowers222 sorry you might be joining me in the 2022 baby club 😞 hope you're both ok. @ChinChilly fingers crossed for you still. It's good your temp is still high 🙂

@Robyn101 So glad things are going well 😊

@Kay00 Did you get hold of the surgery about bloods? Hope you get an appointment! Otherwise what @AMS19 has found sounds like a good deal!

@TheDaydreamBelievers hope you're doing ok today. I've found myself comparing tww symptoms to my chemical back in January so I know what you mean by getting disheartened when you haven't had the same symptoms and start thinking it's not happening this month. Maybe we'll have a completely different set of symptoms next time though?! My fingers are crossed for you 🤞💕

Love the sound of a garden party girls! 🥳🥂🏡

Emmgrem · 06/04/2021 21:56

Hey ladies thought I'd check in as I've been lurking a bit due to being so annoyed with my stupidly short couple of anovulatory cycles post chemical pregnancy..

But I'm now back in the game and 6dpo so I'll keep you updated on how it plays out🤞Done a few different things this cycle like acupuncture and raspberry leaf tea.

@Kay00 so happy to see you've ovulated 🥳

@FlyingGiraffe I know exactly what you mean re comparing this cycle to your CP cycle and wondering whether to hope for the same symptoms or totally opposite ones 🙈

Sorry to those of you who've had BFNs or AF arrive in the past few days. Onwards and upwards to the next cycle. ✨

@Elsie2021 I was so sorry to hear about your MC lovely ❤️❤️

TheHotelCalifornia · 07/04/2021 07:22

I’ll set up a new one for us ladies! Will do it this morning 😊

FlyingGiraffe · 07/04/2021 07:42

@TheDaydreamBelievers Sorry lovely- I just realised that I meant to tag @TheHotelCalifornia in my last post. What a dope. Hope you're doing ok too anyway 😘

@Emmgrem nice to hear from you 👋 and great that you're back in the game! How many acupuncture sessions have you had? What is the raspberry tea leaf supposed to do? I'm trying Agnus castus again this cycle but morning and night before ovulation this time. I kind of gave up half way through last cycle because I knew I was having blood tests on day 21 and wasnt wanting to alter the results too much!

Emmgrem · 07/04/2021 08:43

@FlyingGiraffe I've had 2 acupuncture sessions so far and got my third this week. She's also given me floral remedies to take as drops on my tongue and Chinese seeds to go in my ear- yep I've jumped fully onto the crazy train now!!

The raspberry leaf tea you take 2-3 cups a day up until ovulation. It's supposed to balance hormones and regulate your cycle. This has been my first normal cycle since the CP so hopefully something has worked.

Ooh I bought Agnus castus but haven't used it this cycle as I didn't want to introduce too many new things at once and did read a few scare stories of it messing up people's cycles. How did you find it? I might give it a go next month.
