Does anyone know if being ill in bed and probably a little dehydrated can affect the result of an OPK? Had a + today (it's on another thread if you want to take a peek!), but not sure if it's because I'm ill. x
Congrats Sweedot!
hope you're all well ...
, what's new with everyone?

Hi Zilla, hope you're well too!
Well I went in today for my NST and had loads of long (2-3 minutes EACH!) contractions, but LO was responding well to them. I'm 50% effaced and 1 cm and my OB could touch baby's scalp. 5 days ago I was 0% effaced and only a fingertip dilated at the cervical opening. Hoping that labor starts soon, because this irritable uterus thing is torture. I spend 6-8 hours a day contracting painfully (no painkiller will touch it) and these awful contractions have been producing virtually no cervical change. It's been going on since 34+3 so I'm hoping that since things have finally begun to change, the end of the daily pain in sight.
Sending frosty love to everyone from Texas--it's been in the upper 20s here for the last 3 days. I know that's nothing compared to the cold that some of you must be enduring, but it's been quite unpleasant as it's SUPER dry and windy too!
Well. I'm three weeks pp now and suffering horribly with haemorrhoids...blah...they re terrible and I am always a,aged that they only ever come up a week or so pp...otherwise I never have issues with the,. Not during pregnancy, birth..and I only pushed for five minutes, lol. Anyway, despite the pain and discomfort of recovery, I a, already incredibly broody for a third baby. Its nuts...it must be the hormones.
That's good that LO responded well! - Hopefully you'll be meeting LO#2 very very soon, eee I'm so excited for you! They don't do that here in the UK, I had to google what it was! x
It's supposed to snow here next week, it's been so rainy this week - we've got a drainage ditch opposite our house and it's flooded so much that we now have ducks living outside - they're so noisy though lol!
As for me ... haven't got a clue what's been going on.
Haven't had ANYTHING since CP in November, thought I had a +OPK 10 days ago but I'm not 100%, thought I had a +HPT last Friday (but then I had 3BFNs that day and 1BFN the day after, first + test was an IC and tested a couple hours later with FRER and it was BFN so think the IC had a dye run or something...)
But then yesterday I thought I was getting AF ... had weird pinky/brown CM for like a couple hours ... could only see it when I checked my CM & not on the TP or anything, but then this morning there's nothing there??
So no idea what that could have been. Maybe the +OPK was accurate & it's IB?
Has anyone had IB?
