Hi, I am on CD12 and really hoping Novemeber is my month. Anyone care to join me on this ttc journey? Its nice to talk to people who are in the same situation.

This will be mine and my husbands second child (DH is nearly 4) my periods have been really irregular so started using OPK's for the first time this month. Not had my peak yet but hopefully soon. 🤞

@sweetbabydust1989 sounds awful but glad everything came back normal and u can continue with you ttc journey and get that BNP.
Its such a mix of emotions ttc after loss. I had a mc before I had my DD but was very early on. Only found out I was pregnant the week before so like you not many people knew. Still I was so scared to do anything incase it was the wrong thing to do and used to overthink everything. Hope you can relax a bit in the knowledge everything came back clear.
I am 1dpo on cycle 2. So it's now a waiting game. As I said above would like to DTD tonight but think my husband is shattered. We are usually a once/twice a week couple. 🙈 x

@staryeyes1978 I am 1dpo today. Got my peak on my OPK's yesterday morning and had aches in my stomach last night so I think this was ovulation. We DTD Sat, Mon, Wed and last night so 🤞. I would like to try tonight but think my husband is tired, we r not used to it. 🙈
This is really my first month being aware of my body and what it is doing. When i fell pregnant with DD we were just seeing how things go and not really trying but not using protection either. So this time is different.
How r u feeling? Any symptoms? 🤞 x

Hello ladies! Keeping everything crossed for you. I would love November to be the month that my doctor clears me for my 1st IVF cycle. I knew there is a lot of waiting, but I expect to wait this long just to start. Anyways, I have a good feeling, baby dust to all

CD12 here too, but usually don't ovulate until CD17/18. Finding this wait for the fertile window longer than the TWW itself! Trying for #2 x

@StaryEyes1978 thanks lovely I am only CD12 so not in the 2 week wait yet but baby dancing tonight and then no more we have been doing it every other day other half is shattered 😂 I can sense my ovulation I get really bad cramps that come in waves.. did you use a first response test?? Xx

Sweetbabydust1989 · 30/10/2021 19:36

@Glago2017 thanks lovely oh it's been awful jan first loss then in April had to wait for scans and then this op to confirm what was happening inside well it all came back clear I couldn't believe it when they told me my tubes had a good fill and spill what ever that means I was off my face on pain meds to even comprehend what my consultant was saying I was expecting too loose the right one which was why I had the op.. I am hoping this MOT and full service of my insides is what I needed to get a BFP.. I am scared and very longing on this ttc journey especially after loss not many people no about it I kept it private as sil announced her pregnancy which she is due on my second loss due date.. how is your ttc journey going xx

StaryEyes1978 · 30/10/2021 19:31

@Glago2017 Where Are you now in cycle terms? Keeping everything crossed for you!

StaryEyes1978 · 30/10/2021 19:30

@Sweetbabydust1989 will
Keep everything crossed for you. Sprinkling lots of baby dust your way!
I'm 13 DPO I tested yesterday and got a BFN although AF due tomorrow/Monday and still no symptoms so clinging onto a shred of hope.
I'll test again in the morning but expecting another BFN
To be honest!

Can I join?? I have had 2 ectopics this year both in right tube expectant management treatment and had a lap & dye with hysterscopy done nearly a month ago which all came back clear even my tubes.. I am currently CD12 done a CB ovulation test this morning got another high fertility I thought I would do another test tonight as I could sense ovulation pains coming more strongly lucky I did test I finally got my peak.. hoping to end this crappy year on some actual exciting news xx

Hiya!
Best of luck with everything! I am TTC no 2. I'm in cycle 3 of trying this month. Currently on CD 21 and 7 DPO.

Keeping everything crossed this month!

DD is almost 4. 😊 I also have a really irregular cycle (and add the fact that I am an older Mum to the mix) and it makes things a little more challenging.

I'm in the TWW now and it's a killer!
