@Amy95 yeah it's normal to have difficult days! Give yourself a treat (snack, face mask, bath) and get a really good sleep. You deserve it! 😊

So, I've just had (and still sort of have) some prickling type cramping. It's really weird, nothing like period pains or IBS. I don't remember this last time, but it's quite sharp! Has anyone else experienced this with implantation? Hoping it's a positive sign!

chlx3 · 29/05/2023 22:26

I've just had the worse cramps EVER. Had sex then had such bad cramps I was sick. Never felt anything like it. And still no period which is due Wednesday. Anyone ever had this? Honestly, it's what I imagine the start on contractions to feel like🤣 IT HURT SO BAD. It's not pcos as I've been checked for that but I've been cramping everyday for a week and then that happened and to be honest it scared me🤣🥲x

Sealover123 · 29/05/2023 22:27

I had a prickling sensation when I conceived before! Where is the prickling located?

Sealover123 · 29/05/2023 22:30

OMG those cramps sound intense! When are you going to test next??

emmatcc1 · 29/05/2023 22:32

I feel like everyone here is getting these stabbing pains this cycle.

@teaontap21 Since I started tracking bbt I figured my luteal phase is a day shorter than I thought. What I like about it is it confirms ovulation so you know exactly which day it was and since my luteal phase always stays the same I know when to expect af.

Sealover123 · 29/05/2023 22:50

@LeopardLover @chlx3 sorry I forgot to tag you in my responses above!

@emmatcc1 yeah it sounds like it! Have you? I've just had a bad lower back pain but not really prickling or frontal cramping.

emmatcc1 · 29/05/2023 22:53

@Sealover123 Yeah I had sharp pains on my left side for about a week and had some af cramping and back pain yesterday and today now my right side is feeling a bit tender.

I was going to test tomorrow morning (period due tomorrow) but temp dropped from 36.6 to 36.4 this morning which is still slightly above normal (36.3) so think I'm out this month😕 12dpo today so think it's too late for implantation dip :( sending baby dust to everyone 🤍x x

justanothermummma · 30/05/2023 07:23

@GeoSmed hahahah, I'm married yeah, met my husband at 19!

What about you? 👀

Also your hair sounds amazing!! My girls have totally different hair and eye colours, it's cuuute.

Borkled · 30/05/2023 07:32

Woke up to a temp drop and AF started - I’m out.

My temp had dropped by 0.2 but no period?

Atleast you know that there's always next cycle! I get so upset when period arrives but then feel grateful that Atleast I get period regularly and know that one day I'll have a baby🤍
Hope you're okay! x x

LeopardLover · 30/05/2023 07:48

@Sealover123 They are probably unrelated 😅it's really unusual, although if it happened when I wasn't TTC I wouldn't think about it! Prickling across my lower abdomen. 🤔 It probably only lasted 15 mins.

@chlx3 I do recall having the worst cramps before my period was due when I was pregnant! It felt like thunder and lightning inside 🤣

LeopardLover · 30/05/2023 07:49

Ugh, sorry @Borkled 😔 At least you are joining the amazing @GeoSmed next cycle. Hope you are okay xx

I was doubled over in pain it was so bad!! Never felt anything like it!! EVER! But bbt dropped by 0.2 this morning so think I'm out this month :( contacted doctors and waiting for response about the pain last night because that did not feel normal🤣 I usually have really painful periods but that's when I'm actively bleeding. I had that pain last night and expected to wake up to my period, but no sign of it x

This is so true and our bodies are amazing, despite what we throw at them, they still show up for us every day and keep going. I’m still finding it novel that my body is having a full cycle atm, and all the usual things, I’ve not felt for years and years so it’s amazing even more. Remember it’s when not if. Your new family will start when it’s meant to. X

chlx3 · 30/05/2023 08:01

@GeoSmed this! 100%. This is our 10th cycle trying and it does hurt when you get the negative results and a period, but I'm so glad I do get them because without them, there's no chance of a baby! When you think about it, it really is amazing what happens throughout the cycle and how much your body changes! x

Pcos doesn’t cause pain Jusy a fuck load of other shit instead. Do you bleed after usually or not? X

chlx3 · 30/05/2023 08:05

@GeoSmed the day after ovulation I spotted a tiny bit after but haven't bled after for almost a year. Last February I started bleeding during and it was so embarrassing. I'm just so confused about what's going on because I only get cramps when actually ON my period, never had them before and this pain was indescribable, but not one drop of blood since 28th april x

Bubblesandtroubles · 30/05/2023 08:14

@Borkled sorry to hear that. 😔
I'm still technically in the mix but not got any symptoms I don't think. I don't temp at all so nothing to go from there.
I'm going to resist and not test til the weekend if no AF before then.
Good luck to anyone testing today. Xx

Honestly 🙈 Hopefully you won't have to pay for anything soon and you get those twins 😉 I'm really not sure, he's quite the diva. It would be a good match 🤣

Yes, which is important! She is younger than me for sure, but I'm very youthful if I do say so myself hahaha. She seems quite mature! Maybe around 30. I used to work for travel brands, that was the dream 😍 except for the agency haha. I used to love community management and creative ideas for travel. SIGH... I think it's all pretty similar tbh, it's always hard to get into B2B when you don't have the experience, then you get in and it all feels super similar. I once missed out on a dream job (not salary wise) at Aardman because I didn't have any B2B experience. Hopefully I'll get another shot there one day 😅 Dulux sounds quite fun?

Oh wow, check out you, Daenerys Targaryen! Your hair sounds amazing. Unfortunately not, I'm very Irish looking with straight dark hair. My husband is mixed, so has tight curls. I was really hoping he'd look like my husband with his green eyes and beautiful complexion... But unfortunately he looks like me just with big curls. 🤣 What does your husband look like? It is so exciting, not knowing how your baby will turn out. You have no idea, so when they pop out it's pretty hilarious... Initially Adolf looked nothing like either of us. If he hadn't been with me the whole time I would've thought they swapped him 😅

Ahaha. Can you imagine. I guarantee I go on about how I want to be pregnant and joke about twins but actually being pregnant I’m gonna be one of those women who think they’re dying when pregnant and everything is the worst and total drama. I can just see it now. I’ll be like mouse Jusy fat and hormonal.

ah haha yeah tbf, to say I’m 34, I look 26 (apparently 😏) and act 12 😂 fingers crossed she’s lovely and it goes okay today. Do you work remote or in office? Wow that dreamy. I’d love to work for travel or aldi randomly! Their marketing team are so creative. Come work for me we have an events role vacant atm 😂 be surrounded by geeky cyber techs - what’s not to love 🤔good luck anyway. Hope she’s lovely.

awww are you Irish then? Or do you just look Irish? Your husband sounds dreamy. Swap? 😂 js he naturally tanned? Well, my household is like a sunshine disaster waiting to happen. I’m really fair with white hair and skin that I’m pretty sure is just tracing paper. Husband is fair and bungle, tho it’s more strawberry blonde these days, but weirdly does tan. But also burns. So it’s factor 50 club here. He went on a stag few weeks ago and came back just bright red 😂 yeah I defo think that’s freaky! Does Adolf look more like you now he’s older? Xx

Absolutely. It’s fascinating and at least you’ve had 10 chances like you say. 10 months is a long time tho I totally get that.
and very promising it’s not come since apr 28. Is today due today? X
