So my AF has arrived today but looking forward to having another go at TTC for a baby in November 2019.

Cycle: 4
Age: 34
CD: 1

Anyone else want to join in the same position as we try to get through this next cycle together?

So I just did a pregnancy test before having a beer with DH and got the faintest positive line. So faint I'm struggling to even get a picture, but DH could see it. I'm CD23 somewhere between 5-10dpo (depending what app you believe). Going to buy a frer or Superdrug test tomorrow and do it on Thursday/Friday morning (depending on how much patience I have). Period not due until Monday.

@WildFlower2019 that's some good news, and food on you for getting a plan together xx

ale2992 · 05/03/2019 19:04

@dragonmummy17 I'm trying to be!

WildFlower2019 · 05/03/2019 19:00

Been to the doctors today (after you all told me to two weeks ago.)

She's not concerned with the irregular spotting and thinks it's probably hormone related after my TMFR last year and because I've put a stone and a half on in 6 months.

She has booked me in for a uterus and ovary scan at the hospital just to make sure it's all looking ok & no "retained tissue".

Also, all my tests came back clear. No infections or decade old STIs 😱😱😱

So I'm making it official. I've decided. Im getting back on the exercise bike first thing tomorrow. I'm going to follow the Harvard Fertility Diet more closely and I'm stopping the junk food binging!

AFTER I've eaten these chocolate pancakes obvs ........

Can anyone offer me advice please,

I'm confused this cycle seemed to have ov'd later than usual, i temp and use OPK strips.
I got a positive cd16 and a really dark positive cd17, I think I ov'd cd18/19, due to cramps etc, my natural cycle app has it as cd20, I'm now cd25 and since cd23 until today I keep getting twinges right side, a little like ov pain. I'm also going a little dizzy, but been away and not sure if it's from the journey... I just don't know if I'm thinking too much into it or not. It's not like me to symptom spot normally either.
I just wondered if implantation would be this early, and what it's normally like?

Any advice?
Thanks

Pinkelephant12 · 05/03/2019 13:04

Need advice ladies. I’m only 7dpo but have been feeling extremely nauseous and tired the last couple of days. My LP is only 12 days. Is tomorrow too early to test do you think?

Kinsella82 · 05/03/2019 12:19

Sorry to hear that @WildFlower2019 it must be even worse with the timing that's in it for you :( sending love x

dragonmummy17 · 05/03/2019 11:17

@ale2992 so sorry. Hope you are being kind to yourself
@Kinsella82 sorry AF got you
@WildFlower2019 sorry for the bfn... the timing sounds rubbish too. I hope you are taking care of yourself

I'm 8dpo and planning to test on Saturday

Explorers10 · 05/03/2019 09:29

Sorry to hear about all these BFN & AFs Sad I’m in tww but don’t feel any different so I reckon I’m also out this month

Thanks @Paddypaws91

Peachyx2505 · 05/03/2019 09:21

I did mine about 10am from cd 9 until I noticed they were getting darker, then did them at 10am and evening xx

Kinsella82 · 05/03/2019 09:02

Thanks @WildFlower2019 definitely gonna use opks this month. They should be arriving any day now from amazon.
I know I really wanted a 2019 baby!! Lol

Kinsella82 · 05/03/2019 09:00

@Peachyx2505 good luck with the TWW!! I've ordered some IC opks so I'm going to start then this month after AF. Do you do them in the afternoon? Or morning?

Thanks @Paddypaws91 I only came off the pill at Christmas - had withdrawal bleed straight away then it was 28 day til next AF and now this one at 37 days.

WildFlower2019 · 05/03/2019 08:40

12dpo and BFN. AF due in two days but the spotting has ramped up this morning so I know she's on her way.

Bit of a stinger because today is my original due date. Thought I'd be pregnant again by now. Strange to think that in a parallel universe I'd be ready to pop anytime.

@veeboo I hope being given the all clear on the scans is good news (or is it bad because if there was a cyst that would be treatable?) either way, i hope you're ok x

@ale2992 aww, how disappointing. I'm so sorry xxx

@Kinsella82 Sorry AF got you too. What about testing with cheapie OPKs from about cycle day 8 onwards and when you see them start to darken, move to a clearblue digital? Or just stick with the cheapies x

We might need a new thread... TTC December babies ? Argh I can't believe I only have one more shot of having a baby THIS year. That's rubbish x

Paddypaws91 · 05/03/2019 07:40

Sorry @Kinsella82 :( are your cycles normally quite regular?

I'm 13dpo today and feeling quite crampy, so think I'm out too - boo!

Peachyx2505 · 05/03/2019 07:39

@Kinsella82 have you tried the cheapy opk? I've found them useful in showing me when my surge is just before ovulating. Not sure yet if they've helped with the making a baby yet, but I've got more of an idea of how long my cycle length will be this month (give or take a day or two) xx

Had my surge Sunday evening, and cramps from yesterday afternoon, I'm pretty sure I ovulated yesterday so the 2ww has arrived! Bring on the torture!

Kinsella82 · 05/03/2019 07:02

Hope you're ok @ale2992 :( hugs xx

AF has arrived with a bang this morning. :(
After a 37 day cycle!!!
Previous one was 28 days. So how on earth do I work out when I'm going to ovulate next?? Any advice?
I was pretty sure I wasn't pregnant so I just wanted AF to hurry up and arrive but at the same time it's disappointing to see it and now more waiting :(

Peachyx2505 · 04/03/2019 20:39

I'm so sorry @ale2992 xxxx

ale2992 · 04/03/2019 20:26

Not going to lie I'm hating life right now

Paddypaws91 · 04/03/2019 20:24

so sorry @ale2992, hugs Thanks

flyingplum · 04/03/2019 20:17

I'm so sorry, @ale2992 :(

ale2992 · 04/03/2019 19:43

Spotting is getting worse, also have done a test and it's come back negative. Looks like this isn't my month after all 😞👎🏻

ale2992 · 04/03/2019 19:01

@veeboo yes I suppose but they said that last time when I miscarried also

veeboo · 04/03/2019 17:58

@ale2992 it's positive if epu said its normal but I guess you could ring them back up if it continues.

ale2992 · 04/03/2019 17:34

@veeboo still spotting some red now and feeling cramps but don't really know whats happening unless full blown af shows up?
