[Ontheflipside_]

Anyone want to join? I'm going insane!! I'm not sure whether it's because it will be our last chance to have a baby in 2024 or that this is our 5th cycle so if AF comes it then marks half a year of trying, but I'm struggling this cycle. Need distraction! Lol

They're addictive aren't they?! I've been informed it's an indent not an evap, so that clears it up and explains why its lighter.
Thank goodness for the hive mind of mumsnet!

Thanks @Hopethisendswell ! You're still very early for bfp so fingers crossed!

Haha @Ontheflipside_ I've tried once to feel my cervix but either it's so high or my fingers are too short, not sure it's something I want to keep persevering with 🤣.

@Cherry85 oh my goodness yes, I haven't been on the pill since my teens (now 34) but yes I was terribly nauseous with that! I'm also soo prone to motion/travel sickness too 🥴. Where are you on your journey?

Oh sorry @Cherry85 just seen your previous posts. Can I ask what HI is?

Hi ladies,
too many messages to respond to you all! But it sounds like the TWW really has taken hold of us all! 😂
I’m only 6dpo I believe, although I think I could be more 7dpo… I’m still spotting light brown blood but it’s mixed with creamy and almost EWCM… very very strange! I’m hoping it’s a good sign- my sister who is currently pregnant genuinely thought her period had come albeit light but she bled
for 4/5days but no it was implantation bleeding! So holding out hope, rightly or wrongly 🙈
I’m really hoping it’s not my period starting early, I’m only on CD23 but last month I had a very short cycle at CD25 which was rare for me!

Keep hoping 🤗have everything crossed for you xx

I'm also cd23 and only had 25 day cycle last month which is also unusual for the! I had some weird discharge today with a very faint yellow tinge. I remember having a low of yellow discharge my first pregnancy but I can't help but feel like it's maybe the start of spotting! I usually always spot 2 days before AF...

@Ontheflipside_ what is your usual cycle length? Before Christmas I was always 27/28 days but then I went to a 30 days, then 31, then 25 and now who knows! Really, really hoping that it’s implantation and not just early spotting 🙈 so strange that you said about the yellow tinge… I thought mine had a yellow tinge to it earlier on, that’s when it had a more EWCM texture. Let’s hope it’s on the route to our BFP.

@Hopethisendswell thank you! 🥰 have you managed to figure out if your OH is wanting to TTC if you don’t get your BFP this month?

Well I came off the coil on November so it was 32 days, 27, 28 and then 25 and so far cd23.

I had loads of white mixed with ewcm and then some yellow again! Who knows. Desperately trying to hold off testing but do have 2 boots cheapies staring at me!

@onethingonly Home Insemination. We had tried for a few months but DH was struggling with ED so decided to give it a go

I chatted with DH last night about that. From his viewpoint he's shattered because I'm a bit sex mad at the moment - no idea why 😳 and he thought bulk buying tests might mean months of this and wasn't sure how he'd cope 😂
I was hearing "months of this" as TTC whereas it was blind panic!

lmao yeah I’ve been trying to keep sex interesting bc I don’t want it to feel like a chore for my partner, whereas all I am waiting for is the sperm 😂 but don’t wanna give him performance anxiety

😂

I don't think he'd normally mind, but we aren't even TTC, this month we got carried away and might end up with a surprise. Genuinely no idea why I'm like it this month. I did a test a couple of days after AF as it was so strange and that was before everything kicked off 🙃

We just felt it was becoming all encompassing and was damaging our relationship, so have now separated sex for sex and us, and HI for pregnancy - so romantic lol. It's definitely taken the pressure off, especially as we have a 4yr old - it means he can nip off and do his bit, and I can nip off and do mine and we aren't waiting for DS to go to sleep etc

Does anyone know if boots early tests have form for indents? I just got one 🙄

I’ve heard good things about boots ones I think @Ontheflipside_ do you have a pic of the test you did?

I did a boots one last time I got pregnant and seemed to be the most reliable one.

that sounds fun honestly. Maybe you had strong ovulation this month - I become wild on my ovulation week hahah. My sex drive goes through the roof

@Hopethisendswell how do you feel about that? Happy either way? :)

@Cherry85 i can see the benefits of that! Sometimes it does feel like it just needs to be done which could definitely get old if this turns into a long time!

@Ontheflipside_ have you tested?! Have you got a picture?

You honestly cannot see it at all in the pics. And after 10 minutes you could barely see it in person anymore either

I actually feel embarrassed posting this. I'm only 7dpo 😂😂 what is going on!!! Dignity- goodbye

I'll post my BFN tomorrow to make you feel better 😆

I honestly don't mind either way @MissEmily5 , I actually think I'd be a bit disappointed tbh, but for years it was my worst nightmare! I'm 40s so ppl stopped asking years ago if we were having more babies, and we have two older teens so it'll be a little embarrassing to tell others. Nearly got my figure back too...

Although I have two friends my age who had LOs so I guess as long as I deny knowing my teens people will think nothing at all 😁

Agree about trying to keep the sex exciting and not just functional. Been trying to switch it up a bit, but quite frankly we both “know” 😂 had sex after a bit of row last week, that was a low point 😅

poor guy, I think I’d struggle under the pressure!

literally zero symptoms at all for me, 5dpo I think. Worried I didn’t ovulate or ovulated a few days after peak (in which case we didn’t DTD at the right time). BBT has been so messed up after my MC and the wisdom teeth pain/infection messed things up even more.

boobs do feel bigger but I genuinely think it’s because I’ve put on a few pounds after a very unhealthy few weeks!

the Boots early ones gave me a faint line at 10DPO when I was preg with the MC. I do rate them however when I next start testing I’ll start with the wondfo strips then move over to Boots if there’s anything 🧐

@Ontheflipside_ i can’t see anything on this picture i’m afraid but still is early!
I really have the urge to test tomorrow morning now even though I know it’ll be a BFN. I just have this vision that if it is by some miracle a BFP it would be the best to tell my OH on his birthday!

@Hopethisendswell hahah well
teenagers do like to ignore there parents at times, why not the other way around 😂

@Ontheflipside_ try again tomorrow or hang on a couple days if you can!

Im planning on testing Friday at 9dpo. Have everything crossed but just hate the feeling of a bfn. Although I’m testing then as out with friends that evening so hopefully that’ll be a good distraction!

@Sarah268 im starting with the Wondfo ones too! I then have a trusted Frer if I see anything which I so hope I do!

CM has changed to watery today and tonnes of it. But then this evening back to thicker and stretchy! Not quite EWCM but I have no idea what’s going on! Supposedly 6DPO. Swear I’m normally dry at this point.

anyone else having changes to CM 🔬
