Hi ladies anyone want to join me in a thread to chat about ttc this month? I’m currently on CD2.
A bit about me.

I’m 28 and TTC baby number 1. We’ve been trying for a year and a half now, I had 4 recurrent miscarriages in 2020 so hoping the next will stick. I’ve been given new medication to try next time.

@CycloGoose I saw a bumble bee today!! Sending it to you 🐝

CycloGoose · 25/02/2021 15:12

@Iloveoreos cool. I currently want to throw mine out the window after 7 days of flashing smileys but they are good 🙂

CycloGoose · 25/02/2021 15:06

Bumble bees 🤣 they're currently in hibernation.

Just a bit of fun isn't it and mine says could be next 18 months.

I came off birth control in August and that's our anniversary too so it's a significant month anyway 🙂

@CycloGoose did she say any special signs? What are we looking for?? X

CycloGoose · 25/02/2021 14:41

She's said August. Sulk.

Iloveoreos · 25/02/2021 14:16

@CycloGoose
Purple one. Got it from amazon. Box of 20 i think

@lucea87 im around same days as u..yay

CycloGoose · 25/02/2021 14:06

Ooooooh she put another £8 offer on so I've gone for it. Clearly going to be told some time in the distant future or nothing can be seen for me 🤣

CycloGoose · 25/02/2021 14:00

@Iloveoreos I think Kayls is similar timing to you as well.

Did you get the pink ones or the purple ones?

@Slinks8113 I'm a bit scared of the Agnus Castus.... I just hope I'm wrong and everythingthing is fine!

@lucea87 fingers crossed for your rabbits!

lucea87 · 25/02/2021 13:48

@Iloveoreos

I feel like im so behind 🤣since i started new cycle few days ago. I bought the digital cb opk
I'm only CD7. I start OPKs next Wednesday. Ok I've just seen none Easter related rabbits on the curtains on Mrs Hinch's story on Instagram 🤷🏼‍♀️

@CycloGoose I had a short one last cycle too so I'm just hoping this Angus cactus helps but have read different things about it so will see if it works for me or not. Will be stopping taking it when I get the temperature rise.
@lucea87 completely forgot the Easter reference you know! 😂 so yes I guess rabbits will be everywhere you go at the moment.
Still haven't seen a pig 🐷😂🐷 @Genevive123 has had an array of palm trees!

CycloGoose · 25/02/2021 09:00

@Clareabelle24 I can't even imagine. There are a few ladies on this thread with similar experiences and my heart breaks for all of you. I've not had so much as a sniff of a BFP yet. On the opk I always have a faint line and then on peak it's very obvious. I know you can use them in lieu of a PT but at 10dpo not reliable enough as hard enough to detect HCG on an early FRER. Weekend sounds like a good time to test. Fingers crossed.

@Slinks8113 yey!! Hooray for statics! Still flashing here - a whole f'ing week! I'm feeling like it's very close now though. Either later today or tomorrow. But I think my luteal phase is on the shorter side so will definitely be TWW buddies. I'm sorry to hear about the pressure but also reassured I'm not the only one! My DH is a morning person so, if I get a solid later, unlikely to DTD until tomorrow now anyway.

So hard not to get hopes up every month. I'm really concerned about my luteal phase but can't do much about it. Just hoping beyond all hope that I'm wrong!

lucea87 · 25/02/2021 08:29

Welcome @Clareabelle24 sorry for your loss xx

@Genevive123 I am literally surrounded by rabbits now. However, it is easter....

Clareabelle24 · 25/02/2021 08:19

@Slinks8113 Sorry to hear that you did too. I was shocked how much or affected me. I know what you mean, I feel that way too. Thank you, fingers crossed for everyone xx

Slinks8113 · 25/02/2021 07:47

Welcome @Clareabelle24! Sorry to hear about your MC in December, I also suffered the same in December. It really does hit you hard and there's times where I think I'm doing ok and then it randomly hits me again. Fingers crossed for you though that this is your month x

@CycloGoose the static is here and my temp has dipped as well. Tried to DTD but think the pressure was on so will give it a go later 😂. I am ovulating slightly earlier than last two months so I am hoping cycle is getting back to normal after MC. Any sign of a static for you yet? X x

Clareabelle24 · 24/02/2021 22:53

Thank you @CycloGoose. It hit me harder than I thought but I’m feeling much stronger again now.

Ah do you? I have only ever got them around O and usually negative any other time. I thought what the hell and I’d just do a test.
I think I’ll wait until the weekend when my OH is off work then, AF is due Monday.

Thank you, fingers tightly crossed.
It would... I’ve just read it and it says the first week of May shows something very significant for baby related... we shall see.

CycloGoose · 24/02/2021 22:41

Sorry to hear about your MC, @Clareabelle24 it's so sad.

I pretty much always get 2 lines on my OPKs so I wouldn't read too much into it either way. 10dpo would be early to get a result on a FRER even so I'd test with a pregnancy test when you next feel you can. Fingers crossed for bfp xxx April would be right for a scan for you.

@genevive123 that's so funny and exciting. Let's hope it's a BFP on the way.

Clareabelle24 · 24/02/2021 21:59

Hi, first time posting.

I had a MC in Dec. Recommended to use preseed by a relative who used it twice and got pregnant both times.
Used it for the first time this month, ovulated On Valentine’s Day 😍, bd 4 times and used preseed each time.
I am in absolute agony with sore boobs, they’re huge and really veiny- this has been since the end of last week, very nauseous too.
Currently 10dpo and tested on an opk this morning (I know some are against doing that) and it was faint but two lines, negative yesterday.

Any advice at all?

Thank you in advance.

Ps I’ve also had a reading off that lady too, she said April and may show some significance and could relate to bfp, first scan etc etc.

Genevive123 · 24/02/2021 21:50

What's going on?! haha it's not like I've searched for holidays AT ALL if I had I'd understand this ?!

Oh thank goodness!

Sallyjo27 · 24/02/2021 20:59

@laura2093 no, it’s normal. I think the receptionist won’t give the results incase you’ve got any questions about the results etc. If the receptionist gave wrong information you could sue so they’re very careful x

@CycloGoose

Sorry to hear that *@Penguin143* but another day closer to being fertile again. I know how you feel. I was so confused after my really short cycle. Our bodies can surely sense our stress! I've bought a no alcohol cider to try in the TWW haha.

@kaylsd so glad you have got this weekend off together as well after missing valentines. It's good timing for you to have some chill time together.

@Genevive123 ohhh fingers crossed for your one week wait now! Bizarre about the bloating but kind of exciting. I didn't get the tarot because it was a bit too pricey for a bit of fun. I'll try if she has another sale.

@lucea87 tell me about it! I'm on CD11 and repeated flashy smiley faces from day 7 which is annoying.

Also, I'm finding it tricky to find the balance between drinking enough so that I stay hydrated and have lovely, welcoming ewcm whilst also not drinking too much so that I can have non-diluted little pots of pee for the bloomin OPKs. It's an absolute minefield.

Looking forward to the weekend off! Going to walk the pooch round some nice places n have a couple of glasses of wine or kopperburg which I have in the fridge with my name all over it come Friday! Hope your okay :)! Xx
