Hi everyone so I got my peak on 23rd January and I think I ovulated on 24th.. I’m now 6DPO ovulation. I tested this morning and obviously I couldn’t see anything, but I’m already planning how to tell my partner and looking at baby clothes.. what is wrong with me! Anybody else? And the wait is dragging too!x

[quote Cafeaulait27]@Horehound I think breastfeeding kind of acts a bit like a contraceptive hormonally doesn’t it? I think I heard that somewhere but could be wrong xx[/quote]
Yeah it deffo does. And it has kept my period away for 16months. Then got a period December. Nothing January and I have tested with opks which I kept getting negative results then all of a sudden end of Jan I got three days of positive in a row and on day three I also saw loads of egg white mucous.
Uft I change the wait!

@willow2021 it's written 6 days before period. I ordered now the first response and they will come on Monday so I guess I will test on Tuesday morning. I hope it will get clearer!

@LadyJane18 hahah I am trying! Good that my hubby is not home otherwise he would see me use all the lamps in the house checking the lines...

LadyJane18 · 06/02/2021 18:55

@oannic I can see a faint line! ahhhh 😂 keep calm keep calm 🙈 haha

@1boo1 he is excited he was like ‘do we celebrate or wait for the tomorrow what do we do’ 😂 bless him.

Hi @laura2093 it sounds to me like your on it so I really hope it happens for you soon! I’m afraid I know nothing about the charts etc but I’m sure other ladies on here will ☺️ I’m just here to support and ask for advice 😂 Baby dust to you ✨
P.s im shitting my pants 😂

willow2021 · 06/02/2021 18:54

@oannic what is the sensitivity of the sticks your using now? my cheap ones I have been using to track the change every day since i got my BFP but its super slow on those sticks. i would imagine i wont get full two lines on them till im around 20dpo. But the first response one got fuller much faster with a two days and the clear blue ones. I know its hard but just waiting a day or two to not test really just stops the obsession. So its a good plan to test with the first response in two days.

oannic · 06/02/2021 18:46

@Cafeaulait27 9dpo.. will definitely test tomorrow. It is very very faint but i see it.

@willow2021 no, I didn't even buy first responses but I will order now some to arrive Monday. I've been doing just some cheap tests I got on amazon cause I knew it's too early.

I am trying not to get too excited!

Horehound · 06/02/2021 18:44

Yup I'm only 5 dpo and no idea when my period is due as last one was first week in December and that was the first after giving birth 18 months ago. No idea. I'm breastfeeding too so not sure if that will affect things. But I'm pretty certain I did ovulate as have done opks everyday and then one day also had a load of egg white mucous

willow2021 · 06/02/2021 18:42

@oannic i see a shadow line. Have u done a first response one yet?

Cafeaulait27 · 06/02/2021 18:40

@oannic I see a line!!!!! How many dpo??? Xxx

oannic · 06/02/2021 18:32

So ladies I need your help. I did another test now and I am staring at the stick swearing that I see something.
I think I am just imagining things that's why I need your help! Confused

Only 6DPO and I feel like I’m going crazy! Anyone else with me?

@LadyJane18 love that you said it's a possibility, bet he can't wait to find out!

I'm only 6DPO (I think, first month tracking ov but that's what my CB test says). I had these symptoms when it happened last month except didn't notice the CM as was an accident so wasn't paying attention to that. It's very white though past 2 days which I've never noticed before so hard to compare with the norm. Hope the next week hurries up so I can test! AF not due until 14th, next sunday/Monday so a while yet x

laura2093 · 06/02/2021 18:18

Hello ladies,

I am Laura 👋 I am 27 yrs old and we have now been TTC since March 2020, it currently feels like it's never going to happen. My doctor has been helpful and already started the ball rolling with fertility support. I have my OH's SA here to do and get my D21 bloods back Monday - kinda scary really!

I've attached my BBT's this cycle - can anyone tell me if this looks normal?!

oannic · 06/02/2021 17:58

@Cafeaulait27that's good to hear!

@LadyJane18 I'm 9dpo and tested yesterday and today but all bfn. Is expected though, it's still very early. My period is due next week Th/Fr. I am curious if some symptoms will appear.

LadyJane18 · 06/02/2021 17:31

@oannic I wanted to make it a suprise, I had a whole thing planned but he kinda knew when I would be testing so he has been asking 😂 I haven’t fully confirmed it to him but mentioned it’s possible 🙄 so might still try and make it nice haha
@Stardust89 sounds like a good sign to me I’m only just getting that now :)
@1boo1 @oannic mine was like that (just kinda dried) up until the past two days 🙂 how many dpo are you guys? Apologies if you have said already and I’ve missed it 🙈 x

Cafeaulait27 · 06/02/2021 17:17

@ChristmasJumpers sorry to hear your AF arrived and hopefully you can get some answers at your fertility appointment 😊

Cafeaulait27 · 06/02/2021 17:16

@oannic that CM sounds like a good thing! It could be your body protecting the cervix and preparing it for a baby! I’ve got quite a lot at the moment Xxx

oannic · 06/02/2021 16:01

My cm is also white.. but I see only on my undies and don't feel "wet". It's just dry on the undies (sorry for the tmi).

I also don't know what to think of this. Hmm

1boo1 · 06/02/2021 15:57

Thank you for the positive vibes everyone 🥰 this group is great. I've learnt so much and nice to be able to chat and read about symptoms openly (even if some are tmi 🤭 lol) as those are the things we all wonder and you can't find online!

Plus my DH obvs has no idea about CM so don't think I'd bore him with that! Although he agreed my boobs were 'more weighty' 😂 this morning which made me laugh a lot.

CM seems to be very white(sorry tmi), not sure if it usually is this part of cycle for me as don't pay attention that much?

Stardust89 · 06/02/2021 15:39

@oannic
Same here my boobs are normally sensitive by now but they aren't yet. Super tired too but that's because I'm cutting down on caffeine.

@1boo1 sorry to heat about your MC, fingers crossed for this cycle.

So happy for you @LadyJane18 ! My cm is still creamy, but not sure if that's normal for me as it's first month of me tracking it.

@ChristmasJumpers sorry to hear about AF. I know it might not be comforting but a lot of people say they stopped trying and got their BFP so fingers crossed for your next cycle. Baking sounds like a great distraction too.

oannic · 06/02/2021 15:34

@LadyJane18, congrats!

ChristmasJumpers · 06/02/2021 15:17

@cafeaulait27 I've been tested and had it ruled out but hopefully will know more once I've had my proper fertility appointment 🤞

I'm officially out now, AF has shown her face and I've had a good cry. I'm now baking and trying to forget about it!!

I use the MN app so it's hard to remember lots of people's usernames to tag but congrats to everyone on your BFPs and good luck to those still waiting to test Daffodil

Cafeaulait27 · 06/02/2021 14:43

@ChristmasJumpers ah ok, do you think you might have pcos if you have irregular cycles? I have it and take metformin which regulates them really well - I was amazed at the difference. My cycles are now 30 days on the dot every month. I had to go to a private endocrinologist for the metformin as nhs and gp referral was taking too long.

Just a thought in case it helps you in the future 😊

LadyJane18 · 06/02/2021 14:33

Thank you @IndaFlowers☺️
@Stardust89 @oannic there’s still time for sure :)
It’s crazy because I had no symptoms at all until late on at 9DPO I had like a sharp pain that came and went right in the middle of my abdomen (towards the surface not deep inside) if that makes any sense 🙈 that lasted all the next day. And now 11dpo I have slightly tender boobs, creamy cm, and a heavy feeling with little pulses like a twitch. Seems like my symptoms only started after implantation (no implantation bleeding) I’ve had two seemingly positive tests now. Going to do a digital tomorrow morning and hopefully little one will stick :)
Sorry to go into detail but I know this is the sort of stuff I look for on these threads 🙈
No symptoms doesn’t mean anything 😁
Excited for everyone ♥️
@1boo1 I’m sorry to hear about your mc, it’s good you’re feeling good about this month! Fingers crossed for you all🥰

1boo1 · 06/02/2021 13:52

Been waiting for some symptoms to arrive before popping back but just caught up and exciting to see some BFPs, congrats 😊

I'm 6 DPO and boobs are feeling heavier and fuller (easy to note the change as super small usually!) I know its very early on but feeling optimistic.. As this happened in Jan around similar timings but unfortunately mc 😢. Really hope it happens for us this month!

AF due Valentines day and hope she stays away! Not sure when to test but thinking around 11dpo or after to maybe avoid the worry and BFN?
