Hi all!

I am 26, married for nearly 2 years and It’s my second month TTC. Had the implant out in Feb and had a withdrawal bleed almost straight away. Started tracking last month with OPKs (ova view) but got to CD 17 and never had a positive. Still DTD throughout the month but AF got me (after I went through demented first cycle POAS HPT madness!!).

Decided to buy a different brand OPK this cycle and purchased Wondfo which showed a clear peak surprisingly early on CD 10 and 11 (Sunday 5th and Monday 6th). Had luckily managed to DTD a few times before and just after pos OPK, and feeling more positive this month! Have ordered some ic HPTs and FRER which thankfully haven’t arrived yet! Feel like I need some friends on here to keep me from POAS too early...

On a side note, when I got a positive Wondfo OPK this month I tested same urine with an ovaview... which came out darker than normal but nowhere near positive! Maybe I had a bad batch? Think I will steer clear of them in future though!

Hey can I join? AF due on 20th, I wasn't going to "try" this cycle because of the current situation but then got some extreme EWCM and now have been symptom spotting like crazy so I guess here I am 😂

@Megan1591 I've been using ICs and getting BFNs so am probably out! 11DPO today.

Hey, I'll join AF due 21st.

Juno231 · 10/04/2020 20:20

Hello I'll join you girls! AF is due on the 19th so will be testing around that time. TTC cycle 3 for #1. Ovulated on Apr 5th and confirmed with OPKs :)

@HopeWish sorry to hear about your family troubles...
It does feel much calmer when you are not constantly waiting for that good news.
I hope it stays that way 😄

@SunnySideUp2020

Best of luck to you!

I am feeling much calmer in the TWW this month but I'm not sure if I just feel less stressed about trying to urgently get pregnant.

Last month my family was going through a really difficult time with my grandmother very suddenly deteriorating and passing away from an aggressive cancer within 2 weeks. I was desperate to get pregnant because I thought I needed the good news to keep myself and my family sane.

This month I don't feel that pressure any more, I think I'm over the initial grief. ...But I still don't trust myself not to POAS too early!

Hi! AF is due on 20th, won’t be testing before that as I’ve learnt that a BFN is much more disappointing than AF appearance! Here’s hoping this is the month for us all and our potential Christmas babies!

SunnySideUp2020 · 10/04/2020 17:03

I am testing earliest on 20th too! Will be 11dpo :) but ideally i will wait for AF to be overdue so 25th 👋🌞

Hey @hopewish my app says to test on April 22nd, so I think I'll try my best to hold out till then. I'm in and out of positive and negative mindsets, I have a feeling already I May have missed my time this month. But we shall see. Best of luck to you! Xxx
