TTC February/March

This forum makes me insane. Right. I've bought one. Arrives tomorrow!

[quote CeeJay1987]@CycloGoose thank you!!! I have one stick left, so I may do that Sunday just to be sure!

I used First Response 45 Seconds test... the line is darker now and definitely there! Eeekk!!

I’m on proper cycle #2 (we did December but it think I got it all wrong lol). This month I used SMEP method, conceiveplus, I also tried Ferti-Lily and took the supplements Proceive Advance. Seems an awful lot when it write it all down! Haha

I’ll keep you posted on Sunday and good luck to all of you ladies, and to my cycle twins also testing Sunday! xx[/quote]
I have the ferti-lily cup! And we also said SMEP this month so that gives me hope!! So happy for you! Wish us luck for next month! I'd love to have a little bubba here for xmas and this cycle is our last chance because of my cycle length unless I'm early xx

Ooo hello @Dagray21 and welcome. Everyone has been super lovely on this thread ☺️

I'm CD7 but I got flashy today already as I started testing early - you have to use your shortest cycle. The testing day is on the instructions in a little table, I think it's 20 days before end of cycle i.e. CD10 for you but you should deffo check the table. And you have to use FMU until you get flashy which is different from normal opks where you shouldn't really use FMU.
I'm excited to ovulate! DH has been told his duties 🤣🤣🤣 Would be great if I ovulate before Term starts getting too stressful!

How long have you been trying? I'm 34 and on my 6th cycle. Eating all the supplements and trying everything possible this month!

Welcome @Penguin143 I'd say if your luteal phase is usually 14 days, expect AF 14 days later than your OD... Fingers crossed for you! I was googling phantom pregnancy on my first cycle and since then I've felt nothing 🙄

@CeeJay1987 that's a really strong BFP for so early! What test did you use? Any tips for us ladies in waiting? Haha. Congratulations!! So excited for you! You don't need to test again. Just keep healthy and maybe ring the docs? They might want to wait until 5 weeks after CD1 before booking things in and then that's it! Incubate that beautiful baby 😍☺️👏👏👏🥳🥳🥳
What cycle of trying we're you on if you don't mind me asking?

In other news, my parents dog just had her litter of 7 beautiful puppies! I'm hoping some of her baby making skills rub off on me 🤣

Congratulations on all the positives so far! Lovely reading the positive posts too. I am cd6. Just bought cb digital opks. Bought them once before and they turned me into a psycho. Don't think I ovulate the month I used them. Am between 30 and 32 day cycle....what day should I start using the opks? Good luck to everyone that hasn't ovulate yet this month!!

100% that’s a positive for you! Congrats!! ❤️❤️

@CeeJay1987 That's a lovely looking line 🤩 yeah I would wait til Sunday and do another. Maybe get a digital so you can see the word, might sink in more!!

Thank you so much!! I’m a bit shellshocked at the moment... I know it sounds silly but what should I do now... should I wait until Sunday when AF would have been due to test again to make sure?! I’m trying not to get too excited, or should I? xx

Ok I caved and just did a first response test, but I am not due AF until Sunday.... I’m not sure if there is a very faint line?! What do you ladies think??

Hiiiii! Can I jump on this post?
I am using CB digital and had flashing smileys and then a static on cd17 which is quite late?? . So I now am around 10/11dpo and having ALL the AF symptoms but the cramps aren’t as extreme as normal. I stupidly did a clear blue ultra early today and it was a very clear BFN! I am due on today but because I ovulated late will my period come late in theory? I won’t test again now until Monday if AF doesn’t come but I have convinced myself I am pregnant so much I think I am having a phantom pregnancy like a dog 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Enjoy the booze @lucea87 it's been a long time coming!
It's a good sign that you had a thick lining though and don't beat yourself up. Even if you do everything 100% right you can't guarantee a baby.

Good luck @Iloveoreos

Hey girlies!

Deffo AF for me. It's like a frigging murder has taken place, sorry TMI 😂😂 but it is the heaviest I've had for a long time. Clearly the extra 10 days helped thicken me up....!!

Feeling ok, I'm gonna get drunk tonight to be honest and forget about it. Onto the next cycle! We must have just missed the egg as we DTD in the early hours of 6th Feb, and my egg must have just gone. Bummer! So going to be more on it this cycle and have lots more fun!

Wishing everyone lots of luck. I won't be testing or expecting AF for around another month, hope it goes fast!

14dpo today. Af could be arriving any day now given that all tests ive done are bfn. Not tested today
Was tempted but didnt cave in today. Yet!

@kaylsd I don't think the antibodies last that long though - 3months maybe?

@lucea87 how you feeling today? Does it feel like a cycle day 1?

Still time ladies - not everyone gets symptoms and maybe your lack of them actually means no AF?

I'm totally confused. Flashing smiley today on CD7! Seems way too early. Worried there might be something wrong with my estrogen levels. Hoping it's just a short cycle and it means I get more chances to try!

I'm actually doing so well with not testing, normally I'm like I'm at least 3 negatives deep! I'm actually ended tempted to wait until a couple of days after AF if it is late as each BFN gets harder after each cycle passes :') keeping myself busy this weekend watching that Cecil hotel on documentary 🧐 how do you plan on keeping busy?

10DPO today and I just know I'm not pregnant so I'm not testing and waiting for AF so I can start over. Never been this chilled before! Happy Friday everyone!

[quote CeeJay1987]@kaylsd oh wow you look absolutely stunning! Glad you managed to get your wedding ceremony in! Our ceremony is planned for 29th May this year and a blessing and reception so everyone can come in June 2022! Fingers crossed!

Mable is gorgeous! We have a shepherd x retriever and he is a little pickle. His name is Koby and he likes to pester mum when she’s trying to work from home....[/quote]
Omg Koby is absolutely beautiful look at that cheeky face he's giving you like mummy can you pls give me attention pls pls haha, I think if it wasn't for our Mable our lockdown experience would have been far worse because only time we would have been going out is to put bins out on a Thursday 😂🙈 thank you for your well wishes on my photo hehe means the world, it was a beautiful day under the circumstances I don't even think I would change it for the world ❤️

@Slinks8113 thank you, probably tomorrow then! Xx

@ceejay1987 sunday is af day ..so lets see
Not testing is relief. That heart sink i get everytime i see a single line is so not good

Pretty sure I'm out this month girls, brown spotting today, bugger. Do I could today as CD1 or wait for a flow? Now I don't know when to start testing! Will start tempting tomorrow and recording everything on Femometer, and be guided by that I guess....I've got femometer OPKs and also clearblue.
