Regret taking MAP

[hormonalhandbag]

Hello!

MAP Regret Help

I am looking to see if there is anyone that has been in the situation I find myself in at the moment?

I keep trying different contraception methods and keep having bad reactions so I currently am au-natural. Myself and my long term OH happy healthy relationship and have 3 DC together. I love having a big family.
Not TTC but in the throws of passion last week we had un-protected sex and I don't know if I was ovulating or something (period was maybe a week or so earlier) but I will be completely honest and say I couldn't get his boxers down quick enough, poor bloke!

We hadn't discussed ttc and on auto-pilot and went and got the MOP which I took 48 hours later. I instantly regretted it, like it had made me realise maybe I am ready for one more? I'm 37 and not getting younger. I stopped breastfeeding my youngest at 2.5 years at Easter, so where as definitely not an option before then - maybe I am now broody?

We went on to have un-protected sex twice more the night I took MOP and the night after.

I am now hoping the morning after pill didn't work, a bit hoping he caught me in the nights after. Has anyone decided it's baby time as quickly as this?

Has anyone conceived still after taking MAP?

Sorry for long post... feeling a bit alone feeling this way.

Just in case anyone in a similar situations searches and finds this on a thread... I thought I would deoxygenated my journey for the rest of this cycle.

I suspect I'm around 7/8DPO

Symptoms... feeling very very AF crampy
Low dull ache like it could show up any moment. Maybe my period is due sooner than I thought

Obviously too early to do a PGT but thought I'd test the OPK theory while I obsessively pace out the TWW!

This is my OPK 7DP (pm)

Will do one each today until either the witch shows up or + test, just to see! It'a helping with the POAS urges if nothing else!

I think I’m around 9DPO and the mental pregnancy symptoms are playing mind games with me. Big time! I’m fully aware that it’s most probably the hormonal reactions to MAP

• Cramping like AF is about to arrive
• Headache
• Hot flush
• Vivid dreams (not usual) I hope either AF arrives or I get to AF due as quickly as possible so I can stop wondering (/obsessing!) !!!

I’ve realised I’m really not sure when my last AF was but will get around 3-4 weeks ago.
Now do I know accurately when I ovulated but would have been around MAP taking time. Maybe just before.

I took the MAP 13 days ago.
No period
BFN on the internet cheapie sticks

AF cramps were really strong but have now calmed down.
Feeling a bit meh but could be the heat.

I’m guessing AF due by the end of this week but may be delayed because of MAP 😭

Can’t wait to get out of limbo now!!!!

I've been reading this and I hope you get your positive!

@SpacePug thank you so much for the support!

Excuse my typos above I hope it's making sense

Today's tests were a million percent negative and I have no clue if I'm testing early or when AF is due and I'm driving myself insane, I can't concentrate on anything else waiting ugh!...
So tonight to keep my mind off it I've been researching nice family holidays that I could book if AF turns up and I feel sad about it!

What will be will be with this situation but DP is suggesting maybe we are done and maybe it's time for him to get the snip - so will defo need a holiday to cheer me up if that's the case! No more cute babies waaaah!

Thanks for your wishes. Very kind of you

Woken up to ‘real’ AF cramping!
The witch is coming, I can feel it.
But of upset tummy too.

I might get some work done at least now!
Need to snap out of the ‘baby dreaming!’

Oh no those familiar cramps. Hope you're okay I'm sure whichever the outcome is, it will be the right one for your family in the long term

@SpacePug you’re absolutely right

Still no AF today yet 😣
Just some creamy/white cm (always feel that’s such a gross thing to share but just in case it’s relevant!) and some heartburn last night but probably because I hasn’t eaten since lunch.

The sensible side of my brain is saying look... it’s unlikely it’s happened, you got the cramps, you took the MAP, AF is coming - chill and wait.

The hormonal crazy lady in me can’t help but veer off into trying to work out if cramping is a sign and if I’ve been testing too early if I caught in the sexy time that happened after taking the pill.... blah blah blah! I think I’ve read every thread that covers this!!!
Then I flit back to realising how crazy that sounds.

I really hope to know one way or the other soon so I can move on!

The MAP didn't work for me after taking it about 8 hours later so hopefully it hasn't worked for you. Do you think your husband will come round to start TTC?

@Katefoster did it not?!! Ooh this gives me a little bit of hope!!!! Did you know? Did you get symptoms or was it a case of no af that led you to suspect? If you don't mind me asking

*misery
Typo queen over here sorry!!

Brown spotting this morning and heavy AF cramps... I think this is her!

Do you know if you are late? That's if it's not arrived yet. Maybe take a test if it hasn't

@SpacePug sorry for late update!
AF did arrive! Thank you for your support

I think you'll be disappointed if he gets the snip. Seems like you'd really like number 4! Keep us posted!

@Gabby82 you are absolutely right there! Totally telling him "that's fine if that's what you want"... totally not fine! Definitely broody again! Will keep you posted
