How you getting on @Willow1982?

sorry to hear that @Lollipop25! :(

Congratulations @Sophiederuges!! And thank you @Sunshine8888!

Welcome back @dunkedbiscuit. xx

dunkedbiscuit · 26/05/2021 17:25

@gimmeavino haha! These acronyms are a nightmare! 😂

That sounds like a frustrating cycle, I'm guessing you've done a test?!

gimmeavino · 26/05/2021 17:09

@dunkedbiscuit omg I mean BFP!!

gimmeavino · 26/05/2021 17:09

@dunkedbiscuit welcome back and fingers crossed for your BFN soon xx

Cd36 here, think AF must be stuck in traffic. Doubtful of a BFP at this stage

dunkedbiscuit · 26/05/2021 16:37

Thank you @Sophiederuges and what lovely news ! Congratulations on your 🌈 xx

Sophiederuges · 26/05/2021 16:27

@dunkedbiscuit Everything went back yo normal very quickly for me. The first cycle was 35 days long and anovulatory but the following one was 30 days like before with same follicular and luteal phase. It’s my 3rd cycle and am pregnant now.

@purpleskyssssss Thank you!

Sam8582 · 26/05/2021 16:25

I'm not too far behind you @Willow1982 and @Sunshine8888, I'm 5dpo. Hoping the wait gets easier/quicker as the months roll on!

Good luck with your opks this month @dunkedbiscuit, I agree it must take a lot of strength to get back to trying, I hope you find your cycle is back to normal quickly :)

Are there any ladies due to test now?

purpleskyssssss · 26/05/2021 15:37

Congrats @Sophiederuges ❤️ fingers crossed for a sticky bean, looks like a good line! xx

Fingers crossed for you @dunkedbiscuit that is hasn't put your cycle too much out of place and sending lots of baby dust!

I have had a few days away also from MN, going into month 7 this month, I do think being on MN helped this month as I didn't shed a tear when AF shown!! It sort of puts it into perspective that your not the only person that finds ttc an emotional rollercoaster 🤣

Good luck to everyone for June month let's hope we all get some BFP's:)

dunkedbiscuit · 26/05/2021 15:10

I'm so sorry for your loss @Sophiederuges it takes a lot of courage to try again I think ❤️ did you find your cycle went back to normal afterwards or did it take some time?

Sophiederuges · 26/05/2021 14:33

@dunkedbiscuit I hear you about being terrified. I’m pregnant after mmc and although I’m trying to be optimistic, I’ve lost my carefree attitude.

1stimer16 · 26/05/2021 14:20

@dunkedbiscuit sorry to hear :( fingers crossed for you xx

dunkedbiscuit · 26/05/2021 14:08

Hi guys, tentatively getting back on the merry go round after the chemical. I had to take a break from MN for a bit as it was all too much. But I've finally finished bleeding so back to OPKs to work out what may happen now with ovulation etc, I don't know if the pregnancy loss will out that out of whack.
Tbh I'm terrified of trying again and having another loss, but I do want a baby and this is the only way!
Hoping for happy news all round for June

Sophiederuges · 26/05/2021 12:27

Just did a digital and it’s definitely positive Smile

I also just received my day 21 progesterone result and it is on the low side so I have booked with the consultant for next Wednesday. Fingers crossed I’m not too late !

1stimer16 · 26/05/2021 12:11

Congrats to all with their BFP’s!

Fingers crossed for all of us waiting for next month x

Willow1982 · 26/05/2021 10:45

@Lollipop25 sorry to hear that AF came, I will be on to cycle 3 after mc in June, I think by the end of this week I’ll know if I’m joining you! At least you can have a good drink over the BH!!xx
@CocoLady I agree with @Sophiederuges it can become obsessive, Iv been tracking a couple of months, I think once you get the idea of when things happen it’s slightly less stressful, it threw me some curve balls at first with early peaks, but I’m getting used to it now, good luck, to you, and congratulations on the BFP Sophie looks good to me!!xx
@Sunshine8888 I’m thinking I’m about 9dpo so near you, app says AF due tomorrow, hoping it’s wrong, just waiting to see what the end of the week brings me!! Zero symptoms, so zero urge to test.....yet!!!xx

CTMcG · 26/05/2021 10:44

@Sunshine8888 1st cycle for me too and i have just been put on levothyroxine for subclinical hypothyroidism so maybe a good thing i wasnt lucky enough to get a bfp first month!

Sunshine8888 · 26/05/2021 09:10

@CTMcG this may have happened to me too as got my peak, LH levels dropped but then rose again a few days later. I’ve had a week off DTD so if I didn’t ovulate around my peak then I’ve no chance. It’s only my first cycle so not expecting much

Sunshine8888 · 26/05/2021 08:57

@Sophiederuges that looks positive to me. Test again tomorrow to see if the lines are darker

Sunshine8888 · 26/05/2021 08:56

Sorry to those out this cycle @AlmostLondoner @SkaterChick @Twochews78 @Ttcbn2 x sorry I’ve missed anyone 💕

Not much to report here. 7DPO, too early for anything so just been keeping busy and trying not to think about it too much. X

Sam8582 · 26/05/2021 07:18

@Sophiederuges that looks like it has some colour to it...fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻

CTMcG · 26/05/2021 07:16

Im now 2 days 'late' on cd36 but bfn 2 days ago. Not as regular as i thought! 15dpo when i THINK i ovulated but maybe i didnt and my body tried again a week later which means no chance for me this week... i dtd 5 days the week i thought i ovulated and only once a week since... school girl error on my first cycle ttc#1. Just wish af would show her face so i can move on and go again!

Sophiederuges · 26/05/2021 07:03

Tentatively joining you as I think I might be pregnant... But I’m always worried it could be an evap or an indent...

It was yesterday at 10dpo.

Sophiederuges · 26/05/2021 06:58

@CocoLady I started tracking 3 months ago after a miscarriage on the advice of the nurse to check I was actually ovulating. It is actually quite easy but depending on your personality type, you can easily get obsessed.
I know my body much better now so I managed to only temp and use OPK around ovulation time and until ovulation was confirmed by my app. Then I stopped because I get too obsessed with the “pregnancy sign” part of the app Hmm

CocoLady · 25/05/2021 23:20

Hello 👋🏻 all ! I've never tracked my ovulation etc but after reading up on it it seems quite complex or am I being thick ?! Lol
Do the ovulation sticks work well and does tracking help with more of a chance of conceiving? Thanks xx

Lollipop25 · 25/05/2021 22:38

Well I'm out too🙄🙈 CD33 and AF due tomorrow and have had some cramps and spotting today so onward to cycle 3 after mc. #Gonna buy me some alcohol tomorrow😂# best of luck for anyone still in TWW.
