Hi all ,

I want some company .... currently in my 10 month of TTC after a miscarriage last March at 14 weeks

Due to ovulate around the 10th so my TWW will start around the 11th

Anyone else in the same boat ? Let's keep each other company

Ps I need support not to test early as drove myself mad last month !

Xxx

@Adrianoska I didn't use any ovulation strips only guess work really with an app but I've read up that you need to be having sex 3 times a week every week to give you the best chance of conceiving.
I always thought you make them wait until you ovulate so there is plenty of sperm but apparently not the case at all it's actually worse, you need to keep everything flowing.
Maybe try this method and see how you go on xxx

@Adrianoska basal body thermometer - was thinking it might be useful to start tracking that in case you're getting false positives with your LH surges

Adrianoska · 23/03/2020 19:21

@Juno231 bbt? Bbw? What's that?

Thank you girls. I will carry on bd. And according to my amazon cheap ovulation tests I did have a surge every month exactly on the day 10...
Hmmm

I might invest in proov

Xxx❤️

@Littlepeas2 last four months no bang on 27 day cycles but before wasn't unusual to be a day or 2 late so I'm not getting my hopes up although I'm almost certain I ovulated on time so can't I'd understand why AF is late but she is and I'm guessing my cycles have changed again . If no AF in 2 days will test again as I'm never more than 2 days late .

@Adrianoska I can't really advise but agree with Juno keep trying until you can get another test done !

Bit worried as I've not had this before ,
So AF was due today and no sign of her and BFN on tests still got back ache but no cramping unless I put pressure on my right side of my abdomen then it seems to hurt ? Do I need to get this checked ? It doesn't hurt unless I apply Pressure to it and goes away when pressure is off it xxx

@Donnat89 are you sometimes late? Or usually bang on? It’s so hard to not get your hopes up isn’t it. I feel so hopeful for you and @juno231 !! I literally have no symptoms of anything. Neither pregnancy or period 😂

@Adrianoska I’m so sorry I haven’t any advice there as I don’t understand cycles properly myself! But I agree with @juno231 there’s no harm in still trying whilst you wait for another test! X

Juno231 · 23/03/2020 18:27

@Adrianoska For what it's worth I completely agree with you. Just read that day 21 tests only make sense if you ovulate around day 14 and that the doctor should have confirmed your cycle with you first.

I say carry on DTD until you can get another test done - probably on CD 17? As it's meant to be halfway trough your luteal phase.

Are you using bbt as well btw?

LexieBB · 23/03/2020 18:25

@Adrianoska I can’t answer that question, but my last cycle I conceived, I used Proov progesterone test strips to check whether I ovulated. They’re pricey but helpful IMO. You can get them on amazon. And there’s a support group on Facebook that the creator is a part of and interacts with users frequently to help with questions.

Best ❤️

PLEASE HELP ME TO UNDERSTAND

I had my progesterone test on cd23 (21 was Saturday so could not)
My period arrived the day after as my cycles are regular but short:24 days.
According to my ovulation tests I ovulated on the cd10.

My progesterone level was only 2 and doctor told me on the phone today that I didn't ovulate. But when I did some research it seems that the progesterone levels start dropping 7 days before period (that's why test on the CD 21 assuming that you have 28 days cycles). If I ovilulated slightly earlier than avarage (3 or 4 days earlier) and then I had my test 2 days late that puts me almost a week after the progesterone peak, right? So it is not certain that I didn't ovulate. Am I correct?
Does anyone know?
Thank you so much xxxx
My gp can't run another test until that corona thing is over.
But i still want to TTC 😭❤️

LRHR · 23/03/2020 16:02

@Juno231 @Donnat89
Definitely nothing to say you aren't gonna get a BFP.
You might just not be producing enough HCG yet xxx

@Donnat89 you still never know! read soooo many stories now of people that only got BFPs 5 days late or whatever.

But yeah haha maybe let's not get our hopes up!

@Littlepeas2 promise to keep you updated. Still no AF here either!

Donnat89 · 23/03/2020 15:42

@Donnat89 @Juno231 it's not over yet. I had the little bit of spotting and pink discharge and then 2 days later tested positive xxx

Donnat89 · 23/03/2020 08:04

@Juno231 same here did IC and FRER and both BFN . So obviously didn't ovulate when I think I did of at all and my cycles has decided to change again 😫😫 will see if she appears today but no sign yet ! X

OP posts:
Juno231 · 23/03/2020 07:54

No AF and still BFN 🤷‍♀️.
Had the tiniest, tiny bit of spotting last night which made me think this was it but then nothing. Perhaps I never did ovulate this month! 😂

LRHR · 22/03/2020 18:38

@Donnat89 @Juno231
Fingers crossed for you both ❤️❤️❤️

Yes this is true You just never know really will see what tomorrow brings xx

OP posts:
Juno231 · 22/03/2020 17:13

@LRHR I'll test on a cheapie with FMU tomorrow and will hold off using a FRER until mid week if AF still hasn't shown her face.

LRHR · 22/03/2020 17:04

@Juno231 he's absolutely ecstatic ❤️
@Donnat89 you never know...my frer was lighter than the cheap tests.

Tests again on a cheapy, I've had period pains and I thought yesterday I was going to start xxx

Donnat89 · 22/03/2020 16:53

Sounds wise @Donnat89

@Juno231 I haven't said anything To mine about the faint line as it happened before and he was so upset when AF showed so will not tell him until I get a blazing BFP and AF not show hence why I won't test until tomorrow. Xxx
