@BiscuitLover3678 I was very good! πŸ˜†I managed to stick to just having one...wispa's definitely have a taste of more...πŸ˜‹

ViMa1820 · 25/07/2022 19:27

@Nypie Hiya! I have to look all the abbreviations up, but nope not in the TWW club yet. Start baby making at the weekend!

No tips, absolutely none! Just gotta enjoy life inbetween all the bloody waiting. Happy mummy vibes....πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

It's worse when it's the first time, the time between just feels like years. It's a horrible long process but when that BFP comes it'll feel like all the waiting was worth it and everything is coming together. It's so exciting...just keep positive. Law of attraction is how I lead my life ❀️

How quickly do ovulation tests go dark? I'm really trying to not get obsessive but panicking I might miss my peak overnight or something. Last month it literally happened from one test to another.

Hugs for all the BFNs πŸ’•

I think it would be unusual to completely miss it, mine tend to go from negative to very dark positive and then β€˜same colour as control’ positives for about 24 hours after that.

@NiceToChat88 Welcome πŸ˜„I am 9dpo and I am literally after reminding myself that pregnancy tests are expensive and BFN's suck. Thanks for the link! πŸ˜„

@NSx Nice! 😍Good luck!! πŸ’šMy temp took a nose dive... I didn't sleep too well...DH was snoring, and I woke up to pee during the night...silly me decided to drink a cuppa before bedπŸ˜“I am interested to see what happens in the morning! πŸ“‰or πŸ“ˆπŸ˜

@CinderellaFant I was the same this morning...ouch...had to walk a bit slower at work because they were noticeably more painful today. Sorry to hear that you tested positive. Take care of yourself and rest as much as you can. I hope your brother and mother make a speedy recovery.

Mummyme87 · 25/07/2022 19:48

@Aurora81 i will look into fertility alternative therapies after 12months I think. Hear good things about acupressure and acupuncture

end of 6dpo and continue with sore boobs and Ewcm type discharge

HeartNutella · 25/07/2022 19:49

ThePodParent · 25/07/2022 18:08

@HeartNutella Yes! With my second pregnancy I had heartburn in the afternoon/evening from 7dpo which made me feel a bit sick if I didn’t eat something quickly. It was my first symptom! 🀞🏼

Thank you for sharing you experience!! I thought I was going mad, so weird as i've never had experienced such a long continious heartburn before, in fact hardly any heartburn ever.
Hopefully it turns into a BFP. Also, when did you test positive when having this at 7dpo.

EdinburghGirl1 · 25/07/2022 19:54

@Aurora81 that's good you enjoyed it before and found it beneficial.

Doodle10 · 25/07/2022 20:01

@Aurora81 thank you, yes, it’s very hard not to over think! I feel quite nauseous tonight and very tired but I’m convinced my AF will show up in a few days. Feeling very bloated again. How many days post ovulation are you?

BiscuitLover3678 · 25/07/2022 20:09

Drat my toddler is finally asleep (good!) but I want a whispa more than ever and I can’t go our and get one πŸ˜‚ DH is out working late tonight.

Tomorrow DS and I will have to go and get one.

anyone else waiting for AF to arrive?

RugbyGirl1 · 25/07/2022 20:17

@NiceToChat88 yep I take b6 (along with other vits meant to help) and I think it did push it out a day or two... It used to be around 8/9 days which is too short.

@HeartNutella symptoms sound good! FX for you!

@Nypie and @ViMa1820 I think I'm going to ovulate today so only just about to start the TWW - hoping for the BBT rise tomorrow to confirm 🀞 I always worry we don't DTD enough

Aurora81 · 25/07/2022 20:28

@ViMa1820 Welcome😊Are you using Opks? I definitely agree that we need to have fun too and enjoy life! Good luck to you too πŸ˜ƒI'd say we all had to look up abbreviations at the start so don't worry! I definitely didπŸ˜†

@HeartNutella I had bad heartburn when I got pregnant with my DC, but I had it bad after I missed my period. Fx it's a sign for you! πŸ’•

@RugbyGirl1 Oh my! πŸ˜†My phone does funny things too... it often rings people 😳Good for you booking a private appointment to get answers! I did the same thing. I have a consultation on Thursday, so I hope I get some answers about my spotting, and hopefully they will scan me too. I am going to take extra Vit B6 to help support my luteal phase. What brand of Vitamin C do you use? I use the Biocare Vit C powder.

NSx · 25/07/2022 20:33

@Aurora81 I feel like bbt is very fickle … I wouldn’t rely solely on this - you just never know, but it can be a good indicator of AF atleast!
let’s see what the month holds 🀞 x

RugbyGirl1 · 25/07/2022 20:35

It managed to tag one of you about 50 times and mashed together two separate paragraphs so I asked for Mumsnet to delete it an thankfully they did @Aurora81. Good luck with your appointment on Thursday! Will be interesting to see what they say 😊 at the moment I'm just using Sainsbury's own brand as I'd run out of my usual one, which is healthspan, I get most my vits from them tbh

NiceToChat88 · 25/07/2022 20:39

@Aurora81 I’ve scrolled back through but im drowning in the comments - have I picked this up wrong or have you done acupuncture? Im sooooo tempted to try!!

Charl881 · 25/07/2022 20:56

@BiscuitLover3678 I’ve been massively awol on this thread as so far behind you all now, but keeping everything crossed for you this cycle!

Aurora81 · 25/07/2022 20:57

@Doodle10 I am 9dpo and literally just have the same old sore boobs that I always have at this time. Sometimes it's hard to switch off when we want something so much. Your symptoms sound very promising so keep the faith😊

@Mummyme87 That's a great plan!! πŸ˜ƒI hope though that you will be long after conceiving by then.

@Orangesaretheonly I use the CB digital ovulation test, as sometimes it's hard to use cheapies at work and I tend to use them on my lunch break at home, or when I finish work. Sometimes I wonder if I get a shorter surge or is it probably because I tested at the wrong time, or was it because I was at work and couldn't test. I was on Annual leave over a week ago and I noticed that it was easier to track my cheapie opk progression, as I had time to repeat it when I noticed it getting stronger. Long story short πŸ˜†I prefer the CB tests as I can use FMU get and answer and get on with my day πŸ˜„

@BiscuitLover3678 I feel guilty now for mentioning the wispa I devoured 😁I have to ration them as they are just delish with a cuppa tea πŸ˜‹

@RugbyGirl1 did you get a positive OPK? I think I am going to do SMEP next cycle...here I am planning ahead already...what am I like πŸ˜†DH had a SA 3 days after I got my peak, so we couldn't follow the plan properly this month. I am spending a small fortune on vitamins, as I am gluten intolerant and I have to make sure that my vitamins don't contain any gluten.

@NiceToChat88 I attended both acupuncture and reflexology a few years ago...and while I do believe acupuncture is amazing, I am more drawn to reflexology, so I have scheduled a fertility reflexology. I am not that fond of the needles, but to be honest they don't hurt that much at all really.

@NSx Exactly! It could shoot back up tomorrow, who knows...but I literally think if DH starts snoring again tonight I will escape to the spare room for my beauty sleep 😁and a more accurate BBT reading of course πŸ˜‰

Dogmum13 · 25/07/2022 21:05

@Aurora81 yes I think we can all learn so much from each other on here πŸ₯°

ThePodParent · 25/07/2022 21:06

@HeartNutella Same - I’m really not a heartburny person either. I tested at 10dpo because I was like 🧐 as the feeling reminded me of being in the third trimester with DD and I got a faint bfp!

NSx · 25/07/2022 21:10

@Aurora81 - keep me posted about tomorrow I’m intrigued to know if it goes up.
im going to start doing mine properly when I’m home from hol tomorrow as it’s impossible 🀣 have u tested yet I can’t keep up with everyone in this thread x

RugbyGirl1 · 25/07/2022 21:18

@NiceToChat88 I have acupuncture for fertility πŸ™ƒ I enjoy the time to relax, bit of me time, but I'm not sure how much it helps tbh. Having said that, my spotting has definitely improved so maybe that's been because of acupuncture? Hard to tell!

NiceToChat88 · 25/07/2022 21:22

@RugbyGirl1 its hard to know what is helping sometimes isn’t it with all the things we are trying, vitamins and supplements etc etc! X

RugbyGirl1 · 25/07/2022 21:37

@Aurora81 yep I use the CB smiley OPKs, got the solid smiley on Sunday which was actually a bit of a surprise as it was only CD15 and for the past 10 cycles or so it's always been CD17! I've not had my temp rise yet though, and in previous cycles I've ovulated same day as the smiley, this time I think I'm ovulating today - had some pain towards my left ovary which is not normal for me! So only one day different.... I hope!
