Let’s start with us and add others if they pop up on the other thread. Hopefully March is our month and we get a Mother’s Day BFP 🤞🏼
Cd1 for me!

The apps all say you have a high chance the few days before so I wouldn't have thought you were out.
I was looking back at the timing of when I dtd for the 2 times I fell pregnant before my chemical pregnancies and both times I dtd cd13 and ovulated cd 15 (it's cd13 for me today so definitely going to dtd today)!

KazMumTo2 · 02/03/2021 05:45

My app has just changed my ovulation day to what I originally thought it to be!

We DTD Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Originally the app said I ovulated on Wednesday based on BBT so I thought great! But I’ve got another high BBT so they’ve changed ovulation to Friday (which was the day I got a peak OPK in the morning and a high in the afternoon)! This was the day I thought I’d ovulated! Problem is that hubby was too tired Friday and Saturday after work so just wanted to sleep so now I've only got a few days of DTD that will count! I don’t think this is my month guys :(

I’m now classed as 4dpo and my next period is due Saturday 13th x

Sussexgirlie5 · 01/03/2021 21:54

@Mum2Girls19 lol oh gosh! When will you test?
I can’t wait for this week to be over x

@Cakelaur it’s not unusual to have 2 days of peak but I think you go with the first peak cos it can sometimes take a while for the LH levels to drop.. I usually get three days of ‘peak’ on the cheapies. Keep dtd if you can lol bless you.. you must be exhausted

Cakelaur · 01/03/2021 20:48

@Sussexgirlie5 I've had these for 2 days now! 😂😂 they started Sunday morning.... still getting mega peaks!

Mum2Girls19 · 01/03/2021 20:35

@Cakelaur I'm 8 dpo today...

@Sussexgirlie5 I hope thats the case because im 9 dpo tomorrow lol this week has been hell

Sussexgirlie5 · 01/03/2021 20:30

@Cakelaur lol that’s a proper peak x
You may ovulate tomorrow.. I would go with this you know, your monitor might be buggered cos of the expired sticks..

Sussexgirlie5 · 01/03/2021 20:29

@Annannanna I know right as soon as I threw up I thought can it be haha well it’s not impossible to feel nauseous this early but it’s rare apparently lol been Googling the whole afternoon!

I agree with you on the TWW lol I reckon the first 9 days are the hardest after that it kinda goes quick.

Hopefully you’ll get your peak soon, how are your lines looking? x

Cakelaur · 01/03/2021 20:17

Still bloody peak over here! 😂🙈

@Sussexgirlie5 the only time you are happy to be sick in case it’s a sign! Fingers crossed it is, can it happen so early?

I’m still in my fertile week waiting for my peak, can’t wait to get to the tww, it drags but it is quite exciting to think you could be pregnant!

Cakelaur · 01/03/2021 20:16

I think we need a roll call to see where we're all at in our cycle.
I'm hoping to be 1dpo tomorrow! 🤞🏻

Sussexgirlie5 · 01/03/2021 20:08

How’s everyone doing?
I got so sick in the car today and actually threw up! But I thought to myself I’m only 3 dpo so I’m not sure what that’s about...
TWW goes so slow oh my!

Trollydolly1993 · 01/03/2021 17:07

@kazmumto2 thank you so much hopefully one of 2 things will happen they will either get in a rhythm quickly so I can try and track ovulation or I'll be lucky and fall pregnant quickly without trying too hard 🤞thanks for your advice good luck with your next ttc journey 😊x

KazMumTo2 · 01/03/2021 16:51

@Trollydolly1993 every one is different but when I was TTC my first I had previously been on microgynon for 8 years! I came off the pill and had what I thought were normal periods for 6 months...then out of nowhere my periods stopped completely for 6 months (got excited the first month as thought I might be pregnant but negative test after negative test for me to then not have a period for such a long time I thought there was something wrong)! I then had 3 actual normal periods before conceiving my first baby!

But as I said everyone is different; some people conceive whilst on the pill, some just have to miss a pill and they get pregnant; others as less fortunate like me and it takes what feels like forever 😔

Just monitor your body and go with the flow until you get to some normality x

ShonC · 01/03/2021 16:00

This will be my second month for TTC. My second cycle period hasn’t come yet and showing negative tests x

Trollydolly1993 · 01/03/2021 15:32

Hi girls hope you don't mind me joining been on the pill for 10 years I was on the pill where you take it for 21 days then have a withdrawal bleed every month I came off my pill end of Jan and had a withdrawal bleed 1st to 4th Feb...... I guess what I'm asking is when would my actual period be due would you think as I don't know if my period is late or not😂😂hope someone can help?

Twittwoo2020 · 01/03/2021 13:32

@Cakelaur Thank you! I had what felt like AF cramping yesterday! I’ll keep going with the OPKs for the week and see what happens!!

I think next month I’ll skip the BBT, find it a lot of pressure 😂

KazMumTo2 · 01/03/2021 13:15

@Cakelaur defo just my imagination I’ve been at work since 8am and feel absolutely fine! Isn’t it strange what your brain can do if u do keep it occupied lol! Those cheapies defo look like peaks! Sounds like you’re covered for ovulation as soon as it does happen; maybe try not to stress about seeing it on the machine and just go with the flow! Easier said than done I know! X

girlmummy25 · 01/03/2021 12:49

@Cakelaur i doubt they actually expire... but who knows!
Could you order some femometer ones on amazon for next day delivery, might give you a better idea.

Just had a very positive Opk so thankfully yesterdays wasnt a true positive. Means i didnt miss a day! Woo

Cakelaur · 01/03/2021 12:32

You can peak and not ovulate the first time, and then have a second peak a week or so later. But equally you can have a slow rise after ov, it might shoot up tomorrow.
Mine are also lower than usual. Ultimately. The way I look at it, the result is the same. You're either pregnant or you're not. So I would worry too much about the chart. Did you get ov pains or anything?

Twittwoo2020 · 01/03/2021 11:22

@Cakelaur thanks for taking a look! No fermometer adjusted to say Friday based on the info I have been inputting. My peak was on Friday night (crazy dark line) then the lines on the OPK on Saturday both read high and then Sunday there was only a squinter of a line. Will take another OPK today. Can you get a peak and then not ovulate (sorry might be a silly question). I’m also starting to wonder if the battery in my thermometer is starting to go, I’ve never had such low temperatures or maybe I’m doing something else wrong! 😂😂

Cakelaur · 01/03/2021 11:03

@Twittwoo2020 It would look like you haven't ovulated yet.
Does femometer just say you ov on the day of your first peak? I have one app that does that. Usually you ov 12-36 hours after your first peak.

My chart is not showing ov yet either.
My charts are a little rocky due to kids waking in the night. But generally all under coverline. My coverline is usually 36.3

@Annannanna yeah clear blue is just saying high.

BUT I just realised the sticks are expiry 2019! 🙈 dunno if that makes an actual difference.

Twittwoo2020 · 01/03/2021 10:49

My chart is all over the place this month, I have had up and down temperatures to the point it’s stressing me out!!! I would have thought myself not going by temps that I ovulated on Saturday but FF isn’t giving me any cover line! I got my peak on OPK on Friday night. I have the fermometer app as well and that’s saying I ovulated on Friday. So confused!!!

Annannanna · 01/03/2021 10:38

That does look very positive, hopefully that's your peak. Did you do a clear blue too? Xx

Cakelaur · 01/03/2021 10:26

What's annoying is I have VERY positive cheapies. So I dunno if the machine isn't really working.

Even just now it's still positive.
I dunno. I need my temp to rise! We DTD Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday and we'll go tonight. First positive was on Sunday around 10am
