Just started this new thread because ours is full. Hope the name change isn't confusing 😂 Tagging you too @rita83 if you ever pop back in to say hi! Have I missed anyone? I'm so rubbish with my memory 🤦🏼‍♀️ x

@Cruz86 how did you get on?
I know me too!
@Cruz86
@Lucyasc @Mama500 @Janey3090 I can see the faintest line on a FRER this morning it's hard to capture on camera. Can you see it or am I going mad I'm very likely the latter!🤦‍♀️ thanks xx

Oh I really hope so @Ladylou17 😩 I was meant to be relaxed this cycle because oh wasn't keen on a November baby. Now I'm not relaxed 😂 I fell asleep putting my son to bed too so it's now or never 🤦🏼‍♀️

Haha no it'll be such disbelief! I would just love it if we could get a bfp this month xx

@Cruz86 hopefully it's just LH levels going down after your peak hun.
Oh god me too 😂😂 I swear I won't believe an actual positive if I do see one haha!xx

There's definitely still time @Ladylou17! Keeping everything crossed for you. It really does drive you mad 😂 I swear I see lines on people's tests - not just my own!

Well my opks are lighter than it was earlier. Very confusing and I guess just hoping that I've missed my peak xx

@Cruz86 not due AF till Monday so while away yet, I read average implantation day is 9 so trying to stay positive, im at the stage where I swear I can see lines I swear ttc drives you mad 😂
I probably wouldn't say and just be all romantic post Valentine's Day etc 😉 xx

He doesn't actually know it's on the cards yet so 🤞🏻🤞🏻😂

Ah I'm sorry @Ladylou17. It is still early though so see what happens in the morning. When is af due? Xx

Ladylou17 · 15/02/2022 17:32

I'm sorry @Cruz86 that's frustrating maybe he will change his mind when he's home 🤞

No it's not quite as dark! My oh is on his way back from a work trip and in total he'll probably have driven for about 11 hours in 2 days - already told me he's going to bed early when he gets home tonight. Blood typical!!! Xx

Ladylou17 · 15/02/2022 14:09

@Cruz86 that's definitely a high opk doesn't quite look as dark as the test line, maybe test again this evening? Dtd just incase ☺️ xx

Well it was looking promising until I did an opk (as soon as they were delivered 😂) and this is what it looked like 🤦🏼‍♀️

Aww I bet it's been hard @Ladylou17. It's a horrible thing to have to go through and deal with 😞 xx

OP posts:
Ladylou17 · 15/02/2022 12:37

I bet it's so frustrating fingers crossed you have 🤞 @Cruz86
To be honest I've been so sad the house feels so empty, im hoping for positive news this month but I know they say stress is terrible when ttc and I've definitely not been calm this month 😂😂 how are you otherwise?xx

Cruz86 · 15/02/2022 12:30

If my temps from the last 2 days are accurate, about 2dpo hahaha. But I'm not convinced I've even ovulated yet!

Wow, 9dpo and you haven't tested yet @Ladylou17?! I know it's been a stressful month but you did dtd a lot! How have you been since your dog passed away? Xx

OP posts:
Ladylou17 · 15/02/2022 12:08

@Cruz86 hopefully it is just sorting itself out. Sensitivity is a good sign! How many dpo do you think you are?
I'm ok 9dpo trying not to test, not feeling any different apart from some cramping this morning. I'm not feeling very hopeful I've been super stressed this month xx

I honestly think the Vitex is either messing with my cycle or helping to regulate things over time, hopefully the latter. Will just have to wait and see what happens! I've also got quite sensitive nipples which I don't normally get at this time so I'm just very confused 🤷🏼‍♀️ 😂 How are you doing @Ladylou17? Xx

Ladylou17 · 15/02/2022 10:16

@Cruz86 oh good ☺️ xx

Ooh I've not seen that before! Thank you @Ladylou17. So that means it's 37.09 which is significantly higher xx

@Cruz86 here you go

Ladylou17 · 15/02/2022 09:57

I would go by the other one hun @Cruz86 you need at least 3 hours uninterrupted sleep minimum xx

Cruz86 · 15/02/2022 09:54

Yeah @Ladylou17 😩 it's so annoying because when my son stirred in the night I took my temp and it was 36.76 so I got really excited, but then when I took my temp at wake time 3 hours later, it was 36.06 xx

OP posts:
Ladylou17 · 15/02/2022 09:43

@Cruz86 are they back down again this morning?xx

Cruz86 · 15/02/2022 09:20

Haha let's hope he does better if need be next time! But I'm hoping you get your bfp before that anyway @Lucyasc.

I honestly have no idea what's going on with my temps 😩 think I'm gonna have to give up this cycle x

OP posts:
Lucyasc · 14/02/2022 13:53

@Cruz86 yeah we are there for 16 nights we are so excited, I would love a BFP right before the wedding or just after! Wouldn't that be lovely! At the moment I'm just hoping next FW my OH will stick to the DTD schedule and not back out 😂

Cruz86 · 14/02/2022 09:48

Ooh wouldn't a wedding bfp be amazing @Lucyasc! Are you going to Florida for 2 weeks?

Okay thank you @Ladylou17. It's really frustrating because I've had hardly any fertile cm this month either. If my temp doesn't stay up tomorrow I don't know what I'll do 😩 x

OP posts:
Ladylou17 · 14/02/2022 09:26

@Cruz86 your temp is up this morning and you dtd yesterday and you usually see a temp spike after ovulation so I would assume you're covered if it was yesterday if you have ovulated later 🤞 xx
