@MrsJGrealish Well of course we're interested :p

@FfoxRedN @TheBirdintheCave NEVER believe me when I say I won't test. I'll be testing up to the very day AF arrives BUT no expensive tests which I'm proud of 😅

Those one step tests give you a line no matter when you test. Might do a water dip tomorrow 🤔

MrsJGrealish · 10/03/2023 22:58

@FfoxRedN defo bfn 😖

bringmearainbow · 11/03/2023 07:03

Well think it's a done deal that I'm out expecting af to show tomorrow bfn today. Not even a whisper of anything ☹️ we're off to the zoo today

@MrsJGrealish proud of you for just using the cheapies! One steps sound like they should be chucked in the bin 🙈

TheBirdintheCave · 11/03/2023 08:22

@bringmearainbow Nothing on mine either. Slight temp rise this morning though so maybe this will be just really late ovulation? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Considering asking the fertility clinic for something to make my period start.

FfoxRedN · 11/03/2023 08:31

@MrsJGrealish @bringmearainbow oh ladies I'm sorry this wasn't the month for you ☹️.
@TheBirdintheCave can they do that? It's worth an ask if it's not turned up by Monday xx

bringmearainbow · 11/03/2023 08:36

@TheBirdintheCave oh odd def worth an ask if AF hadn't shown up all they can say is no.

@FfoxRedN thanks lovely tbf it's not all that unsurprising so although still disappointing not as disappointing if that makes any sense 😂 I told him last night to get prepped for lots of sex after af has finished 😂 he reckons he's up for the challenge 😅 such a man answer

MrsJGrealish · 11/03/2023 09:03

@FfoxRedN thanks lovely! I didn't think I'd catch this month but still 9dpo so early enough xx look at me the eternal optimist 😂

MrsJGrealish · 11/03/2023 09:16

@TheBirdintheCave I think you can induce a period but you need to have had no unprotected sex in the run up so alas maybe not you 😢

LuckyMoonstone · 11/03/2023 09:43

@MrsJGrealish have you got any tests to show us or are you waiting until tomorrow?

@bringmearainbow sorry for bfn 😔

TheBirdintheCave · 11/03/2023 10:11

@MrsJGrealish Well I'm certainly not waiting 60 days for it to turn up 😂 Surely they can do something.

I hate this constant torture. It feels like my chance to have a baby is just being pushed further and further away 😭

OP posts:
MrsJGrealish · 11/03/2023 10:43

@LuckyMoonstone I'll be 10 dpo tomorrow so I'm do a fancy one and post that.

@TheBirdintheCave I missed a cycle once and it was so frustrating and I wasn't even ttc, I've read that some woman take a high dose of progesterone for 5 days then stop and that induces a bleed. What cycle day are you on? Have you any AF symptoms?

TheBirdintheCave · 11/03/2023 11:40

@MrsJGrealish CD30 at the moment. But with no proof of ovulation I have no idea when to expect it 😭 I've still got vaguely sore boobs but that's my only symptom.

OP posts:
MrsJGrealish · 11/03/2023 12:14

@TheBirdintheCave I remember you saying you had ov pains? I'd ignore all premom readings this cycle

TheBirdintheCave · 11/03/2023 12:48

@MrsJGrealish I did have yeah but the temps don't reflect that anything actually happened and I carried on having EWCM after that. It's only just thinning out today I think. Still, if those O pains were correct I'd be 9dpo so I guess maybe I'll just have to keep waiting 🤦🏻‍♀️

Sorry I'm such a downer today 😂

OP posts:
MrsJGrealish · 11/03/2023 13:58

@TheBirdintheCave don't be daft! You aren't being a downer at all. My advice would be follow your body and the ov pains. You weren't well, strep A is no joke and that could've upset the temps. Also 9dpo today myself

TheBirdintheCave · 11/03/2023 14:01

@MrsJGrealish I only started temping again after I was better (discarded all of my fever temps) so unfortunately I think they're legit :/

OP posts:
MrsJGrealish · 11/03/2023 14:01

@TheBirdintheCave I had so much CM on Thursday I had to use a tampax at work 😂

MrsJGrealish · 11/03/2023 14:07

@TheBirdintheCave I am a temp novice. I can slightly feel it myself. My boobs produce more heat in the luteal phase

MrsJGrealish · 11/03/2023 14:51

@TheBirdintheCave sorry I'm zero help ☹️

TheBirdintheCave · 11/03/2023 15:12

@MrsJGrealish Not your fault :) I think my body is just broken 😂

OP posts:
MrsJGrealish · 11/03/2023 18:04

@TheBirdintheCave not broken lovely. Dodgy cycle maybe. I've seen broken and you aren't close 😘

MrsJGrealish · 12/03/2023 01:07

The heartburn made me test early on a 2 hr hold. This could very well be an evap not a lot of blue in it. Even if it's positive it means v little to me now..🤷‍♀️ chemicals leave scars 😢 just really odd symptoms this month. No sore boobs but my nipples can't be touched and a sore hip?! (10dpo today Sunday)
I would however kill for a bottle of gaviscon double action 😘

Girls, I'm back 👋. Hope u are all doing well? I can defo see a hint of a line there @MrsJGrealish. So our beautiful rainbow 🌈 baby girl 🥰 was born on the 10th March at 15:44. She's absolutely perfect. She's 7lb 5 so just tiny..and we have no name as yet! ( open to suggestions!). We got home earlier last night. I won't lie...the pain is something else 😳..and I'd forgotten how little sleep u get with a newborn. I pretty much cried all day Friday, just so so relieved to finally hold our healthy girl. I was convinced right till we got out her out that there may be an issue of some sort down the line but looking back I'm just blaming this on post MC trauma. I think I'll post pictures on the Facebook group if u are all ok with that? xxx

MrsJGrealish · 12/03/2023 03:52

@calimc83 massive congratulations lovely!!! Yes please send us a pic💗
I'm soo happy for you 🥰🥰🥰

Oh yes I keep peeing at night too
