3DPO today... Anyone else?

Got my first ever temperature predicted ovulation on 19th December on cd19 which was really much later than I expected. Anyone else want to join me in the 2ww over Christmas? I'm only seeing my DP from 27-29th so will probably be testing early so we can do a test together. FRERs at the ready 😂

Yes the waiting is the worst! I got my dates wrong I think so I am around 6dpo but DTD so hopefully even if we don’t catch we’ve learnt this month to do every other day as the dates can change. Normally I get EWCM around ovulation but this month haven’t had any so might not even of ovulated. Will use OPKS and temps in a few months if we can’t figure it out on our own!

Hi all, just jumping on if you don’t mind. This is our first real month of TTC, said we were going to a few months ago but life gets in the way and didn’t DTD at the right times etc. I’m either 5 or 7dpo and AF due on the 30th/ish. This is my first month of a regular period after coming off the implant a few months ago really, so we’re only using the app and my ovulation day changed suddenly on there but either way we were DTD, it’s only our first month so not too stressed either way but wishing you all the luck in the world for this month! Can’t wait to hear all about your BFPs x

Congratulations! Amazing news for the New Year🎉
Might see you over on the Due September2019 thread?

Thank you ladies, BFP on frer this am. Faint line but there I think I'm 10 DPO hope it sticks! Good luck to Anyone left to test x

I'm taking q10 also. Next cycle I'm going to eat pineapple core before conception and eat brazil nuts after. Apparently this also helps (feel free to correct me if I have got it mixed up or the wrong nuts Grin)

Clementine19 · 31/12/2018 20:29

@whyhaveidonethisFlowersFlowersFlowers
@MrsP4 Speaking of supplements, I took CoEnzymeQ10 and so did husband for 3 months before trying, as a bid to improve egg and sperm quality. It’s about £13 on Amazon for a months supply, so not too bad.
@tobeornottobe1 got both🤞for you.

MrsP4 · 31/12/2018 12:52

@whyhaveidonethis I'm 26 nearly 27, but just trying everything at the minute to try and help, myself and because I read loads of reviews just thought I'd try it, I will let you know how I find them, going to try SMEP again this cycle.

@tobeornottobe1 I did, cd19 on 19th December.

@mrsp4 I'm so skint at the moment. I might have a look after I get paid in January. How old are you my dear?

MrsP4 · 31/12/2018 11:07

Oh no @whyhaveidonethis honestly have a read up and try them tablets said to be great especially for people a little older as it helps eggs mature and be strong enough to fertilise. Glad to have you with me in Jan 😘

tobeornottobe1 · 31/12/2018 11:06

@whyhaveidonethis I think you said you ovulated late like me? Around CD19?
@Clementine19 thank you I will be out later buying every test on the shelf 🙈x

@mrsp4 AF arrived.

Clementine19 · 31/12/2018 09:41

@tobeornottobe1 That’s so exciting!
AFAIK, you’re far more likely to get a false-negative with expired HPTs as their sensitivity is affected by age, so you may well be pregnant!

tobeornottobe1 · 31/12/2018 09:16

Ah ladies, I think I got a squinter on a boots own brand test this am however just checked and it's out of date by a year 😮
Il have to grab more tests today to see,
Symptoms I have are:
urinating more frequently,
Heavy feeling in lower tummy
Boobs feel differently slightly tingly at times
Metallic taste
Feel like AF on her way and I also get some of these with AF every month, so I'm really not sure 😢

MrsP4 · 31/12/2018 08:16

@whyhaveidonethis Your not out yet! And in the nicest possible way I hope your not my cycle buddy for Jan because your going to get your BFP, but if not I'll be here waiting for you offering a hand to hold for next cycle! Xx

Clementine19 · 31/12/2018 07:23

@whyhaveidonethis All sounds promising. Nothing more frustrating than not knowing what’s going on with a cycle/fertility-wise.
@tobeornottobe Keeping 🤞. X

tobeornottobe1 · 30/12/2018 21:18

Thank u @Clementine19
I have a dull heavy feeling in lower tummy, very AF style. Abit of a back ache and constantly feel like I'm going to come on around 8 DPO today. Sad

whyhaveidonethis · 30/12/2018 20:15

@clementine19 it's set for my cycle to be 26 days long and as its my first cycle I don't think it's caught up. I just had some brown mucusy discharge so I think AF is paying a visit. Still at least now I've charted a full cycle, had bloods to show I'm still fertile and ovulating, so onwards and upwards.
@mrsp4 looks like we might be cycle buddies this month.

Clementine19 · 30/12/2018 20:11

@whyhaveidonethis That is very strange. Also strange that it’s telling you to take a PG test at 4 days post O?? Does the new O date tally with your observation of fertile CM etc?

Congrats Ashleigh95!

@MrsP, if it’s any help we used Preseed, but only half the recommended amount.
All the best for January. X

Ashleigh95 · 30/12/2018 14:00

Thanks @MrsP4, it's my first cycle of TTC (very lucky) had my copper coil out just under 2 weeks ago I'm so shocked!! U did however after DTD keep my legs up for a few mins (sorry for tmi)

MrsP4 · 30/12/2018 12:34

Congrats @Ashleigh95 did you do anything different this cycle?

Ashleigh95 · 30/12/2018 12:01

Thanks for comments I got this just !!! Good luck everyone
