AF due 13th/ 14th
Currently symptom spotting; I’ve had what I think are twinges, a shooting pain in my boob yesterday, moodiness and tiredness, however, my boobs are normally really sore from ovulation to AF - but not this month; I don’t know if this is positive, or whether it means i did not release an egg this month? I’m driving meyself nuts!

Baby dust yo all, as they say :)

Good luck ladies
@Chips4dinneragain do you know if you ovulated? I had one weird cycle last year where I had a light period mid cycle I think because I mustn't have ovulated. Maybe that is the case for you. Could be a cyst though. If you have any concerns then do see your GP. I'm pretty clockwork so it was very odd but I haven't any issues with cycles or ovulation so don't believe it was anything to worry about.

Cycle #6
TTC #1
AF due 19/03

First month using clear blue ov test. Got a smiley face on my very first test! Had chemical last month Sad

Good luck everyone!

Nowthenforever2019 · 10/03/2019 22:39

I'm planning to hang on until AF is due (Sunday)... so so tough!

ttcAlex · 10/03/2019 22:32

@Rach1384 My ovulation symptoms usually last for 2 days. Lower tummy pain, bloating, increased cm and sex drive.
I plan to test at 9 dpo at the earliest, which is this Wed for me. If I can hold on till the weekend, when AF is due, I will! but probably I won't Blush

Rach1384 · 10/03/2019 16:03

How long does everyone have ovulation symptoms for after it has occurred? I had my positive opk on Thursday and have had a dodgy tummy since Friday.

Chips4dinneragain · 10/03/2019 14:02

I cracked too, absolutely no willpower whatsoever, unsurprisingly BFN at 6DPO. definitely not doing another before 12dpo.

Catconfusion · 10/03/2019 11:20

I'm 7 dpo and had a temperature dip today. You never know could just be implantation as nowhere near AF. It was a little disheartening to see but it's still quite early I guess.

Peachyx2505 · 10/03/2019 09:00

@MrsRLM I'm going to try and hold out. I also have a few ic in the drawer so I'm sure I'll be tempted 🙈

Charlotte9876 · 10/03/2019 09:00

Well I just POAS so I've cracked already, BFN obviously as it's still too early but as I'm too rushed in the mornings in the week before work to do it I thought I'd have a practice (I also bought a load of the super cheap ones off amazon)!! I'm either 7 DPO (based on OPK) or 5PO (based on fertility friends BBT calculations) xx

MrsRLM · 10/03/2019 06:57

When is everyone going to POAS? Im 8 DPO today so I know still a bit early but it's so temping. I want to try and hold out til at least 10 DPO but I've loads of the little cheap HCG strips from Amazon so probably won't last.

Rach1384 · 10/03/2019 05:53

Hi guys cycle 1 af due 22/3. Having 21 day bloods on thurs to check progesterone levels due to previous fertility issues - fingers crossed all ok!

ttcAlex · 10/03/2019 03:17

Has anyone else got sore boobs straight after ovulation? Mine started literally the next day and have been increasingly sore since.

ttcAlex · 10/03/2019 03:14

@StarlightIntheNight my DC2 is also 5 Smile, DC1 is 7, both girls.
Not sure about what level of drinking would actually affect fertility, but I'd think the occasional 1 or 2 glasses of wine would be fine. And men's fertility - its supposed to last longer than women's as they age, but obv everyone's different x

HellsBellsK · 09/03/2019 20:11

Me please.

AF due 21/3

Cycle 4 with a MC end of January.
Trying SMEP this month so fingers crossed.

Catconfusion · 09/03/2019 18:27

Yes please, AF due 20th March due to 17 day LP. 6 dpo and symptom spotting like a crazy person. Good luck everyone!

jpaws · 09/03/2019 18:07

Me please :)

TTC #1 , cycle 1, AF due 16/3.

StarlightIntheNight · 09/03/2019 17:46

ttcAlex , thanks. So your oldest is also 7? How old is dc 2? Mine is 5. I am in pretty good shape. I walk loads and same weight pre pregnancy. The only problem..well not problem, but I do like wine so I drink a few nights a week (not more then two glasses) and we don't go out so never big nights out drinking. But I wonder if drinking a few times a week could effect fertility negatively. Also, my dh is 8.5 years older then me....so hoping everything is still okay on his side !

Chips4dinneragain · 09/03/2019 16:43

Just had a weird 'bleed', wouldn't really call it spotting as it was bright red and quite a lot of it (sorry TMI overload)' also only 5DPO so too early for IB, any ideas? I do usually spot before AF but not this early and not like this, wondering if it might be a burst cyst or something...

wannabebump · 08/03/2019 20:35

I'll join please!

AF due on 20th March based on 28 day cycle which I've been for the last 3 months after AF finally returned after being off BC since Sept..

Should therefore be 1/2DPO...fingers crossed! Xx
