TTC October 2020 Bus

Hi ladies. I'm on CD21 of cycle 2, TTC #2. Stopped breastfeeding in August and had quite a normal AF arrive a week later. Then in September I had weird spotting for 6 days starting CD22 followed by a slightly longer than usual AF last month but I expect it was just my cycle getting back to normal after breastfeeding? Hopefully AF will be more normal this month, well actually, I hopefully it won't arrive at all 😂

Hi all, can I join in please?
I’m into month 9 of my TTC journey but only on cycle 6 due to long cycles. Only on CD7 at the minute so I’m waiting for ovulation. Haven’t really tracked ovulation up to now, just been DTD every other day throughout my cycle. I think I normally ovulate around CD30-ish (that’s if I ovulate) but I’m trying soy isoflavones this month in the hopes of bringing ovulation forward and making it stronger. I’m also going to use OPK’s this month (started these today) In the hopes of being able to focus DTD when I’m most fertile.
Wishing you all lots of luck and fingers crossed that I’ll see plenty of BFP’s!! 💜💜💜

Ah sorry @SparkyLauz I meant BFPs! Stupid sausage thumbs

Hi @SparkyLauz

Nice to meet you! Glad I am not alone with it and don't worry, I am the same with OPKs and early testing! I did one this morning but sadly it was bfn. Will try again in a few days. How are you finding the OPKs? Im currently not temping but I think if I dont get anywhere this month then I will try it next month and stick with my clearblue digital OPKs.

I was on the pill but I came off it 2 years ago just after we got married. Its horrible when you feel your emotions are all over the place when coming off it but its good to hear that they've settled a bit for you. Sending you lots of baby dust and luck your way! Hopefully we will get BFNs soon! Xx

@ACNass I feel in the same position as you, just come off the pill and have no idea what is going on! If I do OPK in the morning I have a test line but if I do in the afternoon its negative and the control line is really faint, feel like I'm super paranoid and its only cycle 1!! X

Hi @gracie2307 !
I'm fairly new too, I joined a few days ago, in the same boat as you not being able to talk to anyone else about it as dont want to tell family or friends about TTC just incase it doesn't happen etc. Also my DH just thinks I've come off the pill and 'letting it happen naturally" he's no idea I'm obsessing with OPKs and early testing, I dont want him to think I'm being crazy and also don't want him to feel under any pressure so he doesn't even know when AF comes either!

I'm on my 6th month of TTC at the moment and 7dpo now! Was you on the pill before? I stopped the pill in April and I found the for the first 3 or 4 months my emotions were all over the shop but thankfully that has gone now I think the hormones have settled down and just plodding, was hoping for a bfp before now so getting a bit down when AF arrives.

Hi all,
TTC baby number 1, although not trying this month due to stress and work.
Window of opportunity has gone for this month but hopefully back to it soon. Hope everyone is doing well and maybe a few get some BFP’s soon x

Hi everyone! Please can I join? Bit late to the party. TTC for baby no 1# now on month 4. AF due in 5 days. Im 29 and me and my husband have been trying for a few months now. Currently 8dpo and going mad!! For the past few days, I've had like a pain in one side - is that implantation or something else? Has anyone else felt this at all? I cant tell if it is just PMS or early pregnancy and my mood is all over the shop - laughing one minute then crying at a bloody advert on telly.... Any advice is much appreciated I feel a bit lonely as I haven't really confided in any friends that we are TTC as I don't want all the questions. Xx

I had two OPK tests that were almost positive two days in a row (I used FMU) but were always negative in the afternoon/evening. This mornings OPK was super faint again. I'm so confused! I came off the mini pill in LTE August and got my withdrawal bleed September 22nd. I don't have a great idea of how long my cycles are as this is my first cycle off birth control. Am I just being super impatient?

Hey! Quick question, did anyone have a lot of spotting when stopping the pill? I had my withdrawal bleed for 4 days and stopped for 2 and have been spotting everyday since...

Hello all, joining in! I'm TTC #1 and due to ovulate on the 18th. Had my Mirena out end of May, and I've been using Amazon cheapies for OPKs and temping using the Tempdrop armband, which is absolutely brilliant and which I highly recommend.

@Hannahusky so sorry you went through this. I understand completely about being a fertility psycho. It's all I read and watch about these days. We use preseed and that works fine. Here's hoping this is your cycle.

@Tillyturtle I can only imagine how you feel but hang in there and you can always vent on here. X

AF arrived today and I treated myself to a couple glasses of wine and ice cream 😀 Gearing up for cycle 6. Where did the past few months go?! 🙈

Wishing baby dust to all you ladies currently in TWW xx

Wondering if anybody can help?
Today I'm cd 9 of cycle
yesterday i was having what felt like a random one sided cramp but surely it's too soon to be ovulating yet ? I was walking the dog yesterday and had to climb a fence - as I got down, leant over to pick up dog lead, straightened up, it went sharp then dissipated?

Hey girls, mind if I jump on?🙈 currently 8dpo ttc #1, getting so fed up waiting 😨 baby dust to all x

Congrats xx

@SparkyLauz hope it happens for you! Fingers crossed it's this month!

@Tillyturtle so sorry to hear that, must be heartbreaking. Everyone needs to vent, and this is the place if you need it. Hope it happens for you too

@ACNass it's nearly there. Test again tonight and i think that will be a blazing peak. I used the 'easy@home' app. You can scan you opks and it tells you if it's peak as the lady above stated.

Hi everyone! Just took an OPK test this morning and it's the darkest like I've seen since I've started testing. Is this a positive test or on its way to being positive?

Currently on my 6 cycle TTC and 4dpo fingers crossed!!
