Had 2 pregnancies in past (2002,2011) ending in MC
Married now for 9years so yeah looking to start a lil family.
Currently 2dpo and wait is already horrendous and symptom spotting is in place 😂

Good old Google lol

hopeful31 · 09/02/2019 20:14

@Louise392 didn't know it can be dark brown. @Lammoshay hoping that it is implantation x

Louise392 · 09/02/2019 20:02

Colour: for implantation bleeding the discharge or spotting will usually be pinkish or dark brown, whereas period blood tends to be bright, vibrant red. ... Timing: implantation bleeding usually happens about 10 days after ovulation

Just seen that so @lammoshay it could be implantation bleeding as its pinkish. Fingers crossed x

Hi @Rachieb46
I am TTC #4 - the first 3 were a breeze, this is the first baby we have sat and properly planned to conceive and its a nightmare!

@hopeful31 think i ovulated yesterday as i had a lot of ewcm and lots of cramps and today i am alot dryer and no cramps at all.

Hi @Rachieb46
Ttc is a crazy emotional rollercoaster that I did not fully comprehend before I started. It can be soul destroying but I expect it all to be worth it when we get our bfps x

Rachieb46 · 09/02/2019 19:04

Heyyy,

I’m in here too 😊. TTC #1, I’m 30, OH is 23. Cycle 5, CD2 so AF is in the house. Was gutted cos she was 4 days late and I really thought we’d cracked it. Crossing everything to get there soon, 6 friends at work have all gone on mat leave in the past 3 months, one with twins and only 1 of them actually tried to conceive. It can be soul destroying, but really trying to keep positive. 😁

Louise392 · 09/02/2019 17:16

@Lammoshay that looks similar to what I had the first day before that weird period last month. How many dpo are you again?

hopeful31 · 09/02/2019 16:34

I honestly don't know. To me it just looks off colour. But not spotting. Sorry

@Louise392 thank you. I have just found something that said once u get the static smiley face, you are due to ovulate within the next 24-36 hours. So once dh is home, we r dtd.... again lol

Louise392 · 09/02/2019 13:36

When it detects a rise in your level of estrogen it displays High Fertility (flashing smiley face), and will continue to display High Fertility in the following days whilst it looks for your LH surge. When your LH surge is detected, the test displays Peak Fertility (static smiley face).

That is what i have just read online about the static one. Not sure if that helps you or not :)

hopeful31 · 09/02/2019 13:07

Ok so anyone know about the clear blue ovulation kits. this morning I got a static happy face. Does it give u a heads up or is that me now ovulating for the next ??? Hours?

hopeful31 · 09/02/2019 13:06

That's good. @Lammoshay. Fingers crossed for u

@hopeful yeah not to bad- I explained more about the window OV etc and he is getting his head around it- told him I’m gonna be a bitch on heat and he has said we will do the speed meets egg properly for 2 months and see if that works, if not we will just enjoy the ttc and not put any pressure on so that’s fair x

@Louise392 I'm the same, will be dtd every day for the next load of days. I had little twinges today, but I usually have cramps coming up to ovulation so maybe I'll ovulate closer to Sunday.

@Lammoshay it's still early if ur not due until the 13th . How's things with dh?

Hey hopeful- no change here although today I had maybe 3 times where I felt nauseous it passed within 30 secs and maybe cause I was hungry.
Tested last night and bfn x

OP posts:
Louise392 · 08/02/2019 20:19

Just going to make sure we dtd every night now for a few days to make sure we cover everything.
Glow app says I am high fertile today and ov on Sunday, having some major cramps and bloating so can't be far off now.

Do you feel like you are approaching ov @hopeful31?

hopeful31 · 08/02/2019 20:07

It could do. I'm not completely in the know about those ovulation sticks because as u know I'm using cb. But you seem to have covered all bases this month

Louise392 · 08/02/2019 20:03

Yes they have been lighter today, have had lots of ewcm today and yesterday, we dtd Wednesday and will do again tonight. Thinking that lines up with possible ovulation tomorrow?

hopeful31 · 08/02/2019 19:55

@Lammoshay how r u getting on
