My cycle has been a mess since my d&c 2weeks 2weeks then 3 weeks hopefully everything is back to normal this month

Sorry if I ask but what it is a d&c?

CD6 today and AF has finally f###ed off. Really killer cramping this time, lucky I've been at uni and not on shift as I felt bloody awful.

Last cycle I honestly thought we may have cracked it. I had sore boobs for way longer than normal. I had creamy CM for a week leading up to AF (so clearly both are BS fake signs for me) and we BD loads around the +ve opk. oh well, moving on.

Right, so this month - I am armed! Took first temp today (cat heard the beep and legged it so clearly is traumatised from his vet visit last week). I have opks, did one today - why not eh and there is a faint line but obviously not positive. But last month I didn't get a line at all at this time so I'm wondering if Ov will come a little earlier. Also taking a mutilvitamin as well as folic acid - can't hurt.

Got the weekend off with my husband before we are both back on shift and our paths won't cross much if at all for a good few days. Think I'm due to OV mon or tuesday so we'll have to get on it over the weekend. Since coming back from holiday we've both been knackered and working so I think I'll start the every other day from today to the weekend. Feels like ages since we BD (it's not been that long, although he probably doesn't agree lol). I didn't see him at all last week so I'd have been gutted if that was the fertile window and he'd had probably died of exhaustion.

So I guess it's fingerscrossed to all for this cycle, may you bask in the glow of postive opks, cha cha cha BD and discover a peaking BFP at the end of it xx

What job you do (sorry if I asked again but lately I got the memory of Dori from Nemo).....I do work on shift, I will be off with hubby this weekend, we hardly seen each other last month because of work and I will be ovulating next week

I'm a Student Paramedic (I'm 39 not 21, lol). Been in the job for a couple of years now as an Ambulance technician and this year is a top up to Paramedic. I've been doing blocks at uni (currently writing a second dull assignment this week) and blocks on the road - hence shifts. Shifts aren't in a pattern because they have to fit with certain mentors so they are pretty much trying to kill me. OH is a Tech so shifts don't match up much at all now until I finish the course in November

What do you do?

Sorry if I ask but what it is a d&c?

It’s a dilation and cutterage when you have a missed miscarriage or a blighted ovum, basically they dilate the cervix and go in and clean your uterus out

What do you do?

Yes, you already told me, I do have dementia then!
I am a Senior Carer Medication Administrator for a very famous care company and I work in one of them five stars nursing home, I am practically working on the nurses side and after I will have a mortgage I am planning to take a degree as a nurse that is practically what I am doing unless the pay
My husband it is a graphic designer so he is at work during week and off during weekends, I am on shift often on weekends and off during weekdays....so you can imagine how much we see each other. I also do 12 hours shifts so I am exhausted when I am back at home, I don't have even have the energy of talk to him, doesn't matter BD

Oh I am so sorry you had to go through this, big hun xx

 

[Crumble]

So, I got mad today and I gone to join the gym! Actually it isn't a normal gym but it is a health center where I am planning to take yoga classes and where I can swim in the pool. It is open 6:30 to 220 every day, either on weekends and I can bring my son to swim too so I think it is very nice. So I will keep myself distracted from ttc, de-stress and healthy.
I got an appointment on Tuesday to have a medical check and to discuss of what type of exercise and activities I am looking for so I will tell them that I want to do something to increase my fertility (yoga) and de-stress (swimming) and to keep fit either during and after pregnancy. This is the plan! I hope my laziness will not destroy it

 

[Vespa]

Sounds like a great idea Crumble!

Ugh, my boobs hurt already and I haven’t even ovulated

Which CD are you now?

 

[Vespa]

Cd 13 today.

Cd 13 today.

You are probably going to ovulate soon, that is why x

 

[Jellybean86]

Can I have 17th please?

 

[Jellybean86]

I think I will ovulate around the 6th October...My AF started today and it's the first one after my mc (that happened 4 weeks ago) I felt my ovulation cramps 2 weeks after that and now my AF. So I'm thinking my cycle is back to normal straight away. Hopefully this is the month!

 

[Kitana]

That's a great idea Crumble! Keeping fit is such a great way to keep your mind healthy and your body ready for pregnancy! I have to start working out again since I've become so lazy for the last month or so! The worst is that I have access to loads of nice gyms but I'd rather just lie in my bed and symptom spot
Hate it!!!

Usually around cd15 but it was cd17 last month. Still negative opks but getting darker so hopefully I’ll get a positive tomorrow.

Never had sore boobs for ovulation before. In fact before I got my bfp I never got them at all, now I have them every cycle. It was pretty disappointing the first couple of times after my mc as I was sure I was pregnant again but no.

I do have sore boobs during ovulation and before my period start, my pregnancy symptom is to don't have sore boobs before my AF, it is happened with all of my pregnancies....so I am always hoping to don't have sore boobs now!

Could I have the 10th please?

I think I'm the same as my nips hurt like hell last cycle, they literally looked like blueberries - didn't let the husband anywhere near them!
