Long Cycle girls TTC #2

@Newbie0818 how’s your temp today?

@Tink2019 yeah we'll see, still spotting today so af is definitely on the way.

Yours is well above the coverline @Newbie0818 so may just stabilise where it is 🤷🏼‍♀️ Temping is good for confirming O when you have shitty irregular and long cycles, but don't love it during TWW 👎🏻

Me too @Tink2019 steady drop so I'm not even going to bother testing now :/

@SarahTTC2020 I'm not sure, thought that was normally a one day thing, but mines been two low temps in a row...took soy isoflavones this cycle which brought forward O to CD18 (was CD26 the one before), but wondering if it's messed with my LP. Guess will have to see what happens tomorrow with temps but feeling very crampy like I do with AF. Hope O happens for you soon x

@Tink2019 maybe an implantation dip then as 8dpo seems too early for AF?

@xoJellyBean that's exciting! Enjoy all the sex before tww begins haha

Cd23 for me, still waiting for a peak unless I've missed it but had low OPKs sat and sun. Will see what today's is but haven't had ewcm yet and usually get lots for 2 days

@Newbie0818 how's your temp doing today? I'm in a similar situation - temp is now below coverline so wondering if AF is about to come at 8dpo! Normally have a 13dpo luteal phase...

Thank you @Pol96 @Newbie0818 that does give me hope!

Stay positive @Newbie0818 x

@Suki2020 let's hope it's all good news for you 🤞🏼

Yay welcome back @xoJellyBean enjoy fw :)

@xoJellyBean aww good luck. Is it your first cycle not temping and testing for a while?

@Newbie0818 try and keep positive, but I know it’s so hard. You’ll know within a few days. I still feel a bit off headache keeps easing off then comes back. Not sure if it’s where it’s been hot and I have to wear a visor for work. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But other than that all I have is sore boobs which I always have after ovulation.

@Suki2020 that's definitely one way of looking at it! Thank you :)
It's a weird consistency, like ewcm with streaks of brown in it. God I hate being a woman sometimes!
How are you feeling?

@Newbie0818 well if it does turn out to be AF on the way at least you’ve had a shorter cycle this time and hopefully the next one will be as short. It could also be implantation bleeding so your definitely now out yet x

@Tink2019 yeah I think that's my way of coping, we'll see x

@Suki2020 around 12 days, although last cycle was 17!

@Newbie0818 hope af stays away for you. How long is your luteal phase normally?

I hear ya @Newbie0818 best to be realistic then pleasantly surprised rather than hopeful and disappointed x

Tbh @Tink2019 I've stopped kidding myself it may be that as it's just so rare 😕 we'll see what happens

@Newbie0818 or implantation bleeding? Really hoping it's that for you xx

I think I may be out at 9dpo 😭😨 went to check my cervix and I have pale brown blood up there 😭 I've put on a panty liner to monitor it but I usually get spotting before af 😞

@Tink2019 I know, I'm awful in the tww! Doing everything I can to distract myself. I already feel out so I guess a bfp would be a nice surprise :)

@Pol96 it may well be, tbh my temps are never very consistent so I don't know why I'm worrying so much. I guess I just really want to give hubby a pos stick on our anniversary next week 😭😭

@duckii we only got 1 time in during fw! The day before ovulation, and my dates were perfect at my dating scan. Don't loose hope!

@Newbie0818 hopefully it's just because of restless sleep, plus not sure where you're located but it got a lot cooler overnight here!

@SarahTTC2020 wohoo super exciting! Hope that peak comes soon.

@Suki2020 I get migraines and they seem to have gotten worse this year - try Kool n Soothe, they stick to your forehead and are super cold. Those, a dark room and sleep are the only things that work for me. I heard Coq10 can also help so 🤞🏻 as started that this cycle.

@Newbie0818 I stress so much about individual temps, so can't believe I'm saying this, but try not to worry as it could shoot back up tomorrow. I had a really restless night so my temp has dipped quite a bit today. Could also be an implantation dip for you? 🤷🏼‍♀️🤞🏻

Don't lose hope yet @duckii as I'm sure @Pol96 said she only did it once during fw, it only takes one little swimmer :)

I had a bit of a fiasco with temping this morning, forgot to do it when I normally do, spent ages just laying awake tossing and turning in bed, went to the loo etc. Then decided why not try, and my temp has dipped, probably would have been below cover line had I taken it properly 😨 if af comes this early then that's just cruel 😑

Hi everyone, I think I'm 4dpo. Feeling like I've completely missed this months chance. Only dtd twice during fertile week, DH was away for work and when he came back he was tired (he has been working v hard). Trying not to hold it against him!!

Fingers crossed for anyone testing soon!
