It seems AF is coming to get me end of this week (Fri), so instead of feeling sorry for myself I’m trying to look forward to October and getting to try again! šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ¤žšŸ»

Anyone else with me?

Morning all!

@SammiStap ahhh sorry to hear that you got a BFN, but I am still holding out hope for you too hun! You’re not out till you’re out! šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ¤žšŸ»

@Firsttimetrier, I kinda think you’re covered anyway! You’ve done plenty of BD! Fingers crossed! šŸ¤žšŸ»

So…I have a question…
I got static 😊 on CB on Thu morning, and I got a Peak reading on easy@home on Fri morning, so in my calculations…I should have O’d at some point on Sat, right? (12-36 h after the surge?). Yeah, but my lowest temp was on Sun morning and it has been quite a bit higher the past 3 days so the stupid app moved O to Sun!! Can that be right? I am getting annoyed because:
a. We didn’t DTD on Sun, last time was Sat evening.
b. The bloody app is now telling me I’m 3 DPO again, when I was 4! 😤

Any advice?

Ahh sorry @SammiStap. There's still time so sending you lots of luck xx

@Firsttimetrier when did you get a static on your ov test again?

Firsttimetrier · 13/10/2021 07:48

I hope AF doesn’t come and you get your BFP! šŸ¤žšŸ½

I think I’m out this month despite all our efforts as this morning I had EWCM and I’m at a work function this evening. Last time we DTD was Sunday, so kind of annoyed we missed the window.

On to the next cycle with learnings of my fertile window etc šŸ¤žšŸ½

SammiStap · 13/10/2021 07:42

@Elsols93 I’m holding onto hope by a thread now. It is so unfair and cruel. Got all my usual aches and pains that I’ve had for the past week still though.

Elsols93 · 13/10/2021 07:12

Sorry @SammiStap I never read your post properly half asleep ! There still could be hope untill AF arrives nothing is final xxx

Elsols93 · 13/10/2021 07:11

oh no @SammiStap sorry ā¤ļø The waiting game is so horrible and unfair! Hope next month brings you some joy xxx

Marie93 · 13/10/2021 06:55

Thanks @Squiff70 I never knew that as never had it before, I didn’t manage to DTD as didn’t know what was going on. I thought it was strange as I hadn’t had any cm yet, and then this morning got another flashing smiley face so maybe I should get chance to DTD today

SammiStap · 13/10/2021 06:44

Took a clear blue 6 day early one this morning and BFN šŸ˜” just wait for af to come I guess but 15dpo today and nothing yet. I still got a small bit of hope stupidly.

Bundaberg84 · 12/10/2021 22:24

Both cycles I had no symptoms but usual AF signs like a bit of cramping and bloating ended up in BFP.

Cruz86 · 12/10/2021 21:46

Tiredness is definitely a sign @Mummytobe93!

Try not to feel too deflated and like you're out already @Squiff70 and @Missy95. Don't forget that pregnancy symptoms are much the same as PMS symptoms! X

Missy95 · 12/10/2021 21:38

Im feeling really deflated tonight. AF not due until early next week but I have started with my usual PMS symptoms so I just know I'm out already 🄺 I suppose all I can do is wait and see! Xx

Squiff70 · 12/10/2021 21:16

@mummytobe93 I'd say tiredness is my number one suspect for pregnancy. Fingers crossed for you!

@Marie93 some people bleed slightly when they ovulate. It's when the CL ruptures. I wouldn't worry too much but get DTD if you feel upto it.

Squiff70 · 12/10/2021 21:12

Sorry @SammiStap, if it's AF then rest in the knowledge that you did everything you could this cycle.

I suspect I'll be out soon too. I'm feeling very bloated which for me is a sign of AF. I'll try and hang in there (not testing) for a couple more days though.

Marie93 · 12/10/2021 21:12

Hey, quick question has anyone else had this, I’m on cd10 and for some reason just had some bleeding but I’ve not ovulated yet, I got my flashy smiley the today and yesterday and help would be great as no idea what is going on with this cycle

Mummytobe93 · 12/10/2021 20:53

Sorry to hear about the AF arriving for some of you ladies … šŸ’”

I’m extremely tired in the evening, first time it happened on Sunday and today, I passed out on the sofa before 8 pm 😓😓😓
Think is the temperature drop and this time of year in general

BH1926 · 12/10/2021 20:29

Sorry to hear that šŸ˜ž @SammiStap @Dob29

BH1926 · 12/10/2021 20:15

@Cruz86 thank you 😊 I know! I was so sure I was out!
@Danani thank you ā¤ļø

@jadeypies wow really long cycles! I'm 10dpo - AF due in 4 days so I've not long to wait. Feel for you having such a long luteal phase. The wait must be awful šŸ˜ž xx

Tefiti3 · 12/10/2021 20:12

Sorry, I fell off the thread for a while there. CD 19 but not sure when I Ov’d as I am trying to be relaxed about it all… Yes @apwilso my DH works away too, it is really frustrating and my heart sinks when I look at his next rota and see he is away for the important days! If I am honest, I would go to the GP at 12 months, even just to fet the ball rolling with any bloods etc needed as they can take a while to send any referrals.

SammiStap · 12/10/2021 20:07

@Danani I’ll keep you all updated…holding onto a tiny slither of a chance but I’m not a lucky person!

Danani · 12/10/2021 19:54

@SammiStap sorry to hear that lovely, I had such high hopes for you too! But….you never know until AF really comes! šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ¤žšŸ»šŸ¤žšŸ»

Meant to have said Thursday morning Friday!!!

SammiStap · 12/10/2021 19:46

Either tomorrow or Friday @Cruz86 and yea it is normal sadly. I felt really optimistic this time too.

Cruz86 · 12/10/2021 19:43

Sorry to hear @SammiStap and @Dob29. You're not out yet though!

When is af due @SammiStap? And is that spotting normal for you?

Dob29 · 12/10/2021 19:26

@SammiStap I think I’m out too! Pain in left boob has gone now and the usual pre-period spots have appeared on my face šŸ˜” AF due on Thursday according to the app.

positiveovernegative · 12/10/2021 19:25

@jadeypies šŸ¤žšŸ½šŸ¤žšŸ½ let us know how you get on x
