On to my next cycle.....who wants to join me? :-) x

[Kelly1982]

Well, another flashing smiley for me today! We DTD again last night which was fun! Lol!
I'm starting to think I'll never ov! Gill, how many days did you get flashing smileys until you got your solid one? Xxx

 

[yummymummy80]

hey Kelly how are you? this month I had 5 flashing smileys, and last month I had something like 4 blank faces then 6 flashing before I got my solid stick with it you will get your solid. how many flashing faces have you got so far Kelly?

 

[Kirstyt]

Gill your right you get your solid the next day you ovulate and then 1dpo day after that x

 

[yummymummy80]

kirsty sorry did you mean you ovulate the day after you get your solid? if so that means my ovulation day is today

 

[Kirstyt]

Yer Hun soz tmoz is 1dpo xx

 

[yummymummy80]

ah right just need to clear up a myth might sound totally thick here, but ive read online before that you have sex 3 days in a row after you get your positive opk so does that mean ov day 1 dpo and 2dpo or does it mean 3 days after im confused

 

[SharonP]

I thought that is was the day of the +opk, the next day, and then 1dpo; but I could have that wrong.

 

[Emmajaine]

My thoughts are the same as Sharon's, day of positive opk, next day (ov day) and 1 dpo. Xx

 

[yummymummy80]

that's what I thought too but was getting myself muddled up LOL gosh who would of thought ttc would be so complicated? you spend your younger years trying not to get pregnant cause its drummed into you one slip up will get you pregnant, then when your ttc you realise it takes more than 1 try

 

[Emmajaine]

My oh and I have had exactly that conversation! I honestly never realised how hard it could be to get pregnant. Don't think it helps that all my friends have either fallen pregnant by accident or within the first month of trying! Makes me feel like a failure sometimes! Xx

 

[yummymummy80]

I know that feeling emma, what made it worse for me is that I just told my mum we were trying (shes not very supportive of anything I do but I decided to just tell her after all what can she do?) and she turned round and said well maybe its fate your not meant to have kids, don't know how it would affect anyone else but it really hurt me.

 

[Emmajaine]

Aww gill, that's horrid, I'd be soo hurt if anyone said that to me let alone my mum! Feel the need to send you loads of after hearing that!

We haven't told parents that we are trying, I know my mum would be excited but each time I spoke to her there would be the "soooo... Any news" comment, which wouldn't help.

Xxx

 

[yummymummy80]

thanks emma, ive not told my hubby cause that comment would upset him too. this is how I love my pf cause I can tell you all about things and we're all in the same boat so you understand.

my mother in law knows we are trying aswell mil is great she is the best.

so how far are you in your cycle emma are you in your 2ww?

 

[SharonP]

Aww Gill I'm stunned your mom would say such a thing, I've thought it about myself at times but i'd be incredibly hurt and angry if anyone said it to me. I'm so sorry. Sending you lots of hugs hun.

 

[Emmajaine]

PF is great isn't it, I honestly feel so comfortable talking to you ladies about anything and I know you'll understand!

I'm on cd16 (have short cycles, average of 25 days) so in theory yes I'm in my 2ww.

But I'm not sure that I have ov'd yet and I've run out of opks. I missed a couple of days with the opks and all the others have been negative. But I'm still getting ewcm, so don't really know what the hell is going on!

If I ov'd at the weekend then I'm in with a chance, but if it was yesterday or today them I'm out (last bd was Monday).

Where abouts are you in your cycle? How confident are you feeling this month? Xx

 

[yummymummy80]

thanks Sharon it actually made me question the fact will I ever have kids? but im determined to prove her wrong

 

[yummymummy80]

hey emma im on cd 18 today is ov day for me so 2ww tomorrow I was feeling quite upbeat about it, but after my mum saying what she said I don't feel confident it will ever happen

 

[Emmajaine]

It will happen for you hon, I know it's hard but try to block out her horrible comment. You will show her that she is wrong!!!

Xx

 

[yummymummy80]

I really hope so emma but something like that does knock your confidence though. anyhoo enough of my moaning for the day lol

anyway so how are you today, are you getting cramps or anything? im getting really bad cramps today almost like af cramps however she would be 2 weeks early lol. just wondering I was away to make something to eat poached eggs on toast but just thinking I like my yolks runny do u think its still safe enough to have that?

 

[Emmajaine]

It's completely understandable that it has knocked your confidence, but she is WRONG! You are def gonna be a mummy!

Nothing symptom wise going on with me at all! I can never go by cramps as my ibs gives me random cramps all the time.

Ooh, not sure on that one, if it was me I'd go for it, but there might be a bit of a risk.
