March bus!

I use Ovia. I logged ovulation for a couple of months. Using the clear blue kits. Didn't this month but think I could tell physically when ovulated with EWDC. AF due on Saturday. Not sure at all if it's happened 🤷‍♀️

@Peachyx2505
I have been 27/28 for ever!! But my last 2 cycles were 24 days. I didn't monitor anything. So going by my early ovulation, it'd make my cycle 24/25 days again.
I'm 36 soon, so that's a bit of a worry 🥺
I'll mention it to the doc later anyway.

Glad I've got a 2ww buddy lol
however even if i conceive, it probably won't stick... 🙄 hence the hospital appt!

Good luck, try not to drive yourself nuts xx

@Wishful30 Good luck with your hospital appointment today. How short have your cycles been? Hopefully using the OPKs will have helped this month 🤞🤞

@barnburntdown secretly got everything crosssd it's implantation for you 🤞

@sukisydney hugs lovely x

@MilkyMum23 sorry af came x

I had cramps yesterday and my opk is now negative ( had my positive Sunday eve) so definitely think ovulation (🤞) was yesterday. Well my body attempted to at least! Bring on the 2ww torture!

Well, my opk is negative this morning 👍🏻

So looks like I'm ovulating early. At least I can now expect a shorter cycle! Tho I don't know why this is a regular thing 😑

First time in a while my ovary was hurting for a good few hours, so hopefully that means I've ovulated now. Pain is gone completely this morning, and dtd last night. 🤞🏻

Off to the hospital today for some test results. Feeling positive, hoping for some answers.

Have brown discharge at 8dpo ....never this early to start AF. No idea what's going on and don't want to get hopes up 're implantation bleeding but .......

Sorry @MilkyMum23 @WrexhamBuxom - hope next month is luckier. And @ronniemipperton sorry next month won't work out - can you go wild doing all the things we 'shouldn't' for a couple of weeks to make up for it?

@CoachBombay glad your pain has subsided, at least you know the eggs were ready and waiting, fingers crossed it's your month!

I think I'm fertile but DH is ill and anxious/depressed so is not really on board this month. Pretty gutted as after the CP I was feeling really eager to try again. Going to see if he feels better about it all later, but I reckon I've only got a 24 hour window left...

Hi ladies,

Firstly congrats to LJS8987

AF arrived one week late! Was so upset, not sure why as I didn't actually think I was pregnant but just feel so down every time it comes.

Have started using the Ovia fertility app, has anyone else used it? Is it worth using and accurate? Or am I wasting my time?

Had a frank chat with DH last week and said he has to take it more seriously, he's the one who is desperate for another baby and yet is a bit resistant to finding time to dtd when required. We'll see how we go.

Hello ladies!

So sorry I have been quiet, had a bit of a manic half term here!

My OHSS has calmed down and hopefully will pass soon, I'm no longer bloated and the pain is only a niggle now and again. I'm probably about 10dpo...problem is hospital ward called back the other day on-call Dr to discuss my scans and they are now concerned I may have released 3 or more eggs! I did however calm them down by saying not to worry too much as 50% of my eggs don't work due to a genetic condition so could only be one good one or all bad. It's the luck of the draw sadly. They seemed calmer about it by the end.

I've done no symptom spotting because really there's nothing to spot..so I'm just sitting here waiting....and waiting....and waiting!

Welp, I am officially out, as AF showed up today...right on time.

I am probably off the March bus, but I am going to keep hope that maybe Mother Nature will surprise me.

Looks positive to me @Wishful30 🤞

Morning ladies.
I hopped on the April bus, skipping March.
But it looks like I'm ovulating early 🤦🏻‍♀️

Not crazy am I?!!

This will be my third short cycle in a row if that's the case 😑

@sukisydney

Thanks for the positive vibes. AF is definitely being a little weird, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up or anything. AF isn't due till tomorrow, but usually I have a significant amount of spotting (on the underwear) the day before, which I don't have.

I got a small spot on my underwear yesterday morning, but nothing significant on the TP, and nothing on the underwear since. TP has been hit or miss....sometimes nothing, sometimes a light pink or brown mixed in. Normally once AF spotting starts, it is pretty consistent till she comes.

Like I said, trying not to get any hopes up. HPT was a negative but on the teeny tiny chance it was IB, I'm sure it wouldn't show up for a bit anyway. I'm just trying to keep a positive attitude either way. Either it will be a shockingly pleasant surprise (which I'm not expecting) or the longer AF waits, the better the timing will be for DF and I BD-ing.

Hi ladies,

Mind if I join?
Age 33
TTC # 1
CD 11

We’ve been trying to conceive since May last year - fell pregnant cycle 1 but mc at 6 weeks, then fell pregnant again 2nd cycle after but mmc in October at 12 weeks. Had issues with retained tissue and hormones following the second mc, and so this is the first month we’ve been able to ttc since then, and so I’m full of hope, but scared at the same time.

It’s lovely seeing all the bfps, congratulations to you all, and good luck to the rest of us!! Hoping to test in a couple of weeks time, due to ovulate tomorrow and normal cycle is 24 days.

Xx

@PyjamasForever it's all sounding promising 🤞🤞🤞

@MrsP4 hope you had a nice time x

Did a cheap opk when we got home and it was very positive 😃😃 I'm working tonight, so no dtd... but hopefully this morning will count 😳 We are both on annual leave this week so may jump him tomorrow too 😉😂

Major symptom spotting here (9dpo by my calculation and 4dpo by app)... still intermittently have a funny taste and I've had some boob pain since last night. I know if this was due to pregnancy I'd have enough bHCG to show in a test, but I can't face the crushing disappointment if it's not... so trying to wait until next Sunday.

Hi everyone, hope everyone is ok, just got back from a weekend away, Cycle 6 has begun CD 6
DH had a sperm analysis done on Friday and I had CD 4 bloods done too, going back on CD 21 for another blood test, Doctor is going to see if I'm actually ovulating, and should get results back from DHs sperm this week, how's everyone getting on any cycle buddies this month?

Hi to the new ladies. Keeping fingers crossed for you.

Hubs and I have had a weekend away (childfree!) and I should be ovulating today/tomorrow. Hopefully our time together has errrrm been successful 😳
Forgot to bring my opk with me... epic fail in detecting the surge! I'll try one when we get home this evening.

Hope everyone else is getting in ok. Anyone testing this week? Xx

Hi can I join?

Today is my ovulation day according to apps, first month of no opks as I was a poas addict and was obsessively using them as a Way to see if I was pregnant! But I have had a very strong second line every time I've done one on the day my app says so I assume I will be ovulating today. Not buying any tests until I'm close to AF, was sat in the draw past cycles, way too tempting..

Cycle #4
Ttc #2
Age #25

Good luck ladies xx

Ahhh @ronniemipperton sorry to hear that. I wish you all the luck in the future xx

Joining the bus, TTC #2. January was a bit of a bust (two periods?!) so this will be our third cycle.

Sorry to hear that @ronniemipipperton. Hopefully your DH will be around for the cycle after next and that will be the one for you.

I’m definitely out, AF here in full force. Slightly earlier than expected based on ov date but bang on time for usual cycle length.

DH is away for the whole of my FP this month though, so no chance of a BFP for me for a while now.

Good luck everyone, hopefully by the time I’m on another bus you’ll all have BFPs 🤞

@pinkoi @WrexhamBuxom I had spotting 2 days before AF due with my last BFP - I think implantation is often just a couple of days before AF, so unless it gets heavier keep the faith! X

@pinkoi I'm so sorry, girlie. I am right in the same boat with you. Started spotting today. So, now I am in the mode of hoping it is a slow/delayed spotting and that AF comes a smidgen late, which would give me a chance in March for the timing to work for me and DF. Right now the spotting seems to be TP only, so crossing my fingers to keep AF at bay for a couple more days.

Like you, my cycle does vary, which makes it tough to figure out days. The last few cycles, it has been at or just north of 30.

Good luck to you.It is definitely a tough thing to suffer through month after month: the loss of hope.

looks like I'm out.
Spotting started CD 26 and today 27. Too late to be implantation. usual cycle length is 28/29days
Felt sick for the last 2 days and I had imagined my nipples changing colour. The mind is a powerful thing!

God knows how people have the mental fortitude to TTC month after month. It's only been two months for me and I'm miserable as FLIP!
😢
