Congratulations Sakura!!!!

Can't wait to hear your result HappyLassie13!

I am SS like mad even though I know I shouldn't. TMI but my nipples have been really sore and that doesn't normally happen in the run up to AF. I think I'm about 8 DPO.

There's also a job promotion coming up at work so I know theoretically it would be better if I wasn't pregnant, but I want it so much!

Hi all

Congratulations to Sakura and happylassie fingers crossed for you

Ive had a bit of a rubbish week I was meant to start the pill on the 17th but I obviously didnt all this week I have had really bad cramping pretty much everyday been so uncomfortable and getting a bit fed up with it now
did anyone else experience this when they came of the pill cause at the moment I feel like it will never end lol? The app I!!!8217;m using said I should start ovulation today but Im not expecting that to happen due to the short time Ive not been taking the pill but could the cramps be that? Sorry to be so dumb but I was the pill for so long I cant remember what my cycle was like pre pill lol

Hope everyone else is doing ok x

Faith when I unintentialy came off the pill (accidentally forgot to take it for 3 weeks haha) i had a week of nausea and stomach cramps. It was when all the flu was going round at the start of the year so I wasn't sure if it was that but when I started taking the pill again the symptoms suddenly stopped. I think it took 2 weeks for the symptoms to start then stopped the same day as I started taking it. So it might just be withdrawl from not taking the pill? If that can happen.

Congratulations on your BFP Sakurah! How did you tell your OH? I hope we are lucky enough to get a BFP soon, I am pretty sure it won!!!8217;t be this cycle so fingers crossed for the next! Doing the lists was meant to be lucky!!!8230; I think I!!!8217;ve broken that hahaha

I have everything crossed for you HappyLassie! I'll be checking back constantly for your update no doubt!

Bapbap definitely still go for the promotion! You will still be working for months before maternity leave anyway and the higher pay will be useful for mat leave calculation!

Faith177 our bodies go through so much coming off the pill. We!!!8217;ve fed it chemicals for years and then they are suddenly stopped, so it!!!8217;s understandable that you are having cramps and pains. Ovulation pains are usually short and may last a couple of hours (I think) so I don!!!8217;t think it will be that. Plenty of TLC for you! I hope the cramps subside soon.

CD28 here, Ovia is predicting AF for tomorrow. If my cycle is back to !!!8216;normal!!!8217; then it would vary between 29-34 days so AF should arrive sometime this week. So far I feel!!!8230;. NOTHING! No cramps, no spotting (typical pre AF for me), no nausea (other than cutting toe nails the other night, and well I think that was more due to what I was doing hahaha), no 'heaviness' in my tummy so I'm thinking this may be another long cycle again

Evening All

Aww a huge congratulations Sakurah that is wonderful news!!!!

HappyLassie I am keeping everything crossed for you!

CD16 for me, but been away on a hen do this weekend. Accordingly to my Ovia app, I am in high fertility.

Hope you have all had nice weekends.

HappyLassie13

I haven!!!8217;t tested yet as the tests I had in were the cheap ones from home bargains and I didn!!!8217;t get a faint line on them last time until I was 3 days late. So we went to the shop today and I have a clearblue test in to do tomorrow.

Still no sign of AF though and I!!!8217;ve felt sickly today but I!!!8217;m not getting my hopes up.

I tried to old wives tails today with my first urine of the day as well ha ha

Hello lovely people, have been a bit off the game last few months but back on it! Emotionally a bit all over the place as one of my closest friends has announced she pregnant (she has been trying for almost as long as me so very happy but still a little part is oh so jealous).
Had a good heart to heart with OH last night as we are awful talking about TTC and feeling hopeful again and starting to try again properly as has been half-hearted for last few months and we have avoided talking about it almost.

so, would love to go back on the lists, CD11 so lets see what the next few days holds!

Sakurah - congrats on your BFP!

Happylassie - keeping everything crossed for you!

Opk question - I have been Using opks the majority of ttcing, today if the first clear clear positive I have ever had, do other people find them hit and miss? I have had what I believe to be positives but todays result was the first time my test line has been darker than the control line! They have been dark at certain points in my cycle over the last few months and when I test I use like 3 a day so I would def catch my surge! I am wondering if I have ovulated at all previously, can you have AF without ovulating?
