I’m almost 100% convinced I’m out now!

Really really hoping a December baby is the one. Anyone else?

[quote MrsGrealish]@Bubblesandballoons my luteal phase is 12 days too so I started vitamin B6 mid cycle. I take vitamin B12 (was deficient last year) and Q10 (meant to help egg quality) I am awful at remembering to take them so I'm gonna make a real effort this cycle. Obviously folic acid and vitamin D already.

@RMS0209 my new plan is more vitamins and DTD every 2 days from day 10 even when OPKs low. šŸ¤žfor next cycle!!ā¤ļø[/quote]
@Newbiemg :) might help you 12 day

@MrsGrealish yeah all the ewcm makes you think no way the swimmers haven’t made it šŸ˜‚. I have the clear blue too, but tbh I use the cheapies alongside as my peak is often on day two of the peak on cb digital so I’d be missing ovulation day, so I’d say if you find peak ok in cheapies save your pennies and just dtd every other day in days leading up to cover yourself till you get peak.

I’ve started b6 on top of what I’m already taking to try and lengthen my luteal stage as I’ve come on twice at 12dpo now. Feel like i’m doing something in my month off šŸ˜‚. Anyone know of anything else that may help?

RMS0209 · 27/03/2022 15:02

@BiscuitLover3678 lots of luck to all of us for April ā¤ļø

@MrsGrealish ooh yay the supplements! I'm in the mind now I just want to keep powering through and hopefully get the good news sooner rather than later...
The clear blues are good but I think I need to be dancing before I get the peak smiley! Sometimes I only get a peak no flashy - very annoying!
I use the easy @ home's too, definitely going to try every few days to keep myself "topped up" ha ha you know what I mean! X

MrsGrealish · 27/03/2022 14:53

@BiscuitLover3678 also you weren't well last cycle so don't be too hard on yourself xx

MrsGrealish · 27/03/2022 14:44

@RMS0209 well the wild health vitamins are on order for both me and OH. So I think I see what direction I'm headed inšŸ˜…
I was considering ordering clear blue ovulation tests but not sure I can justify expense with so many easy@home sticks in the house.

@Bubblesandballoons it's so hard. I always get really optimistic in fertile week damn oestrogen surge making me think anything is possible. Then the TWW is a killer for me

@BiscuitLover3678 I'm right here with you xx no early testing this time. It melted my head

Bubblesandballoons · 27/03/2022 14:24

@BiscuitLover3678 ahh bless you, I do hope this is your month šŸ¤žšŸ». It’s hard deciding what’s for the best, in the end you really do just have to go with your gut.

RMS0209 · 27/03/2022 14:23

[quote MrsGrealish]@Bubblesandballoons I'm deciding between having a break or throwing everything at it this month. I feel like I'm too old to be having a break but I think I'll see how I feel fertile week. [/quote]
@MrsGrealish throws everything at it! That's what I'm doing next month we can all support each other. X

Bubblesandballoons · 27/03/2022 14:21

@MrsGrealish i must admit I do find the idea of having a break hard as I’m not getting any younger and would love a sibling for my ds. But I’m away on holiday the last week of my tww and just feel I need to be able to enjoy myself and not be symptom spotting/worried about miscarriage or getting sad if Af shows. Hopefully my body will then be ready to give me my bfp that sticks around in may šŸ¤žšŸ».

I was so upset last few days I’ve realised I can’t have a break now šŸ™ˆ

Bubblesandballoons · 27/03/2022 13:23

@Charl881 ooh looking forward to seeing those lines get darker. I’m not trying for a month or two now. Gonna take a break from here too, will keep checking in though to see how you are getting on

exne · 27/03/2022 12:04

@Gioia1 thank you so much! Ovulated late so not sure if that changes things - either 1st or 7th December :) I feel super nauseous (nearly threw up at the smell of baking bread!), head hurts a bit, then my back hurts!

@Charl881oh my god congratulations!! I knew you were!! Such brilliant news! ā™„ļø

Mummyme87 · 27/03/2022 11:43

Yeah, I’m not feeling out yet. Only 9dpo, didn’t get BFP until 11dpo with DS1

Charl881 · 27/03/2022 08:54

@Mummyme87 if it helps, my FRER on Thursday I was absolutely convinced was an evap line as it was so thin and grey. It’s only because I got slightly pink lines on the cheapies that made me get more to take yesterday which was 14dpo. I always assumed with FRERs you’d get a strong positive way before 14dpo!

Charl881 · 27/03/2022 08:53

@Bubblesandballoons I did another last night and it was positive again although no darker, I have more tests coming later so I can check if it’s getting darker over the next few days. Got some digitals for next week too.

That sounds odd, I didn’t realise that could affect your length of periods. Although at least that might be you ovulate earlier this cycle so can try again sooner!

Mummyme87 · 27/03/2022 08:51

@Charl881 no I was running to work, doubt would have captured it. Will do another tomorrow

Bubblesandballoons · 27/03/2022 08:45

@Charl881 yay congrats. So happy for you ā¤ļø. How’s it looking today?
@Mummyme87 sounds like there is still a chance it’s the start of your bfp.
I have no idea what’s going on, no sign of af today, so my af only lasted two days. Thinking maybe I didn’t ovulate last cycle due to getting a uti on day of peak, as only other times I’ve had short periods are when I wasn’t ovulating.

Charl881 · 27/03/2022 08:39

@Mummyme87 do you have a pic??

Mummyme87 · 27/03/2022 07:19

Did a fRER, I’m saying BFN. There is a line but probs an indent.

Mummyme87 · 27/03/2022 06:30

Morning ladies, 9dpo today. I’m awake as I have work today… one hour less sleep, work on a Sunday, work on Mother’s Day gahhh. But hopefully I’ll catch a baby ā™„ļø

Had such a vivid dream that I got a dye stealer BFP on FRER 😩😩

Charl881 · 26/03/2022 19:57

@princessrapunzel yeah I think because I knew we couldn’t try next cycle and because so many friends were announcing pregnancies this month, I really wanted it more than any other month. Was so worried when I kept getting the faint lines!

We’re both so lucky, hopefully we both have smooth sailing pregnancies.

princessrapunzel · 26/03/2022 19:53

… the app kept crashing lol.. was going to put at the end of that message that its also so great to have the excitement with you that weve both got our positives

princessrapunzel · 26/03/2022 19:30

@Charl881 im so excited for you. I could really feel you disappointment this time round. Your cycles always been around the same sort of time as mine so have been feeling let down the same time as you
