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

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

@BiscuitLover3678 I think as long as baths aren’t hot enough to make you light headed they’re fine!

BiscuitLover3678 · 11/04/2022 15:54

Scratch that, I’ve read that low mood just after ovulation is normal and that feeling low is negatively corresponding with pregnancy on that countdown to pregnancy app. 🄲
Just one of those things then.

Is low mood a sign? Only 4-5 day po and have felt so rubbish today! Granted could be other things like sleeping badly and the house being a tip again.

Any ideas on baths? When does it get bad or should I avoid one now? I just really fancy one.

@F03t wow congratulations! Great news. Have a look online or contact GP, some places you self refer to the midwife services and they’ll book you in for a booking appointment which is usually around the eight week mark.

@F03t

I posted here early in March hoping for a little penguin-december baby. Was abroad last week and felt sure I was out because my OPKs showed a very early peak (CD13 on a 33ish day cycle) - but no period so tested this morning and BFP, confirmed with clear blue showing 3+ weeks. Doesn't quite feel real! Any one know what you're meant to do next?! :)
Amazing! Your first?

I’d call up your gp surgery. They’ll tell you but some areas you go for a gp appointment and they refer you to midwives.

@Poppyjen sorry chic..covid has a lot to answer for. Good luck next cycle😘

Poppyjen · 11/04/2022 07:49

Update. As suspected, I'm out šŸ˜ž good morning AF. I had Covid mid-cycle this time, maybe it disrupted everything. 10 day LP is not normal for me.

Good luck everyone!

Poppyjen · 10/04/2022 21:49

Hello all - feeling a bit 😬 today. I am 10dpo today (according to OPK), since yesterday I have had some pink tinged CM when I wipe (sorry TMI), not enough really to even mark my pad but it's there each time.

I have tested with FRER yesterday and IC today and both BFN.

My cycles are sometimes longer than expected, but never this short. It's weird. I am expecting AF to arrive properly any minute (albeit earlier than expected) but there's a small part of me that is wishing for this to be the mystical implantation bleeding šŸ˜‚

Has anyone had this experience?

Charl881 · 10/04/2022 21:40

@MrsGrealish sounding promising! I also cba to BBT and don’t think I ever will.

Reckon ovulation will happen for me tomorrow so that will make our one attempt at DTD four days before ovulation… so not out but a long shot!

BiscuitLover3678 · 10/04/2022 15:08

[quote MrsGrealish]**@BiscuitLover3678* so when I got pregnant last year (very unplanned) I had zero symptoms. Just a tiny bit of implantation bleeding which I thought was early AF but it didn't arrive. So I did two hugely positive tests. I only miscarried because of an absolute f**k up with the medication I was taking. Hospital were too long in changing quite strong blood thinning drugs. I was 8 weeks.

Anyway no symptoms are a good thing😊 so I'm hugely hopeful for you xx I go to Greece 2nd week of may and DH goes away 20 April for 3 days. [/quote]
I’m so sorry about your miscarriage experience , I really can’t imagine Sad so awful what happened with the hospital!

I hope Greece is a welcome break. Not long at all!

[quote MrsGrealish]@BiscuitLover3678 I'm not 100% sure either. I was working and missed an ovulation test so I kinda got 2 lesser peaks😩 at the most I could be 7dpo but I don't want to believe that. For my sanity I'm saying 5dpo

So I've had mild AF like cramps for 2 days only noticeable when trying to sleep. CM has upped (wet TMI sorry) Absolute agony hot boobs last night but woke up to a lot less agony but I'm aware of them. I wish I did bbt but honestly do not have the patience or time for that. [/quote]
Definitely got some symptoms then! Not long to go until you know for sure. When do you go away?

I DTD Saturday, Monday and Thursday. Ovulation was either Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. My gut says Thursday so let’s see I guess.

But as I have no symptoms whatsoever probably nothing šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø And was probably Wednesday after all and sperm didn’t want to stick around.

MrsGrealish · 10/04/2022 14:35

Maybe I didn't even ovulate and this is a tremendous waste of energy 😩

@Bubblesandballoons

Hey, finally can breathe and look forward to the next cycle. Will keep checking in, hoping at least one of you og’s gets your bfp this month. *@Charl881* I had ten days of flashing smileys after the 1st chemical, so hopefully there’s still a chance for you
10 days! Shock

@MrsGrealish

Oh *@Charl881* don't even šŸ™ˆ I'm symptom spotting like crazy.
Ooh what do you have? I don’t think I have anything yet, but then I never do!

I also have no idea when I ovulated! Oops.

@Bubblesandballoons thank you but I think ovulation is just round the corner! It’s just one cycle though and I know we can properly try next cycle so I’ll be joining you then for sure. It will be nice not having to obsess over a TWW anyway, we can obsess over @MrsGrealish and @BiscuitLover3678ā€˜s TWW instead!

Charl881 · 08/04/2022 21:13

Well I had a high on a CB this morning so no chance of ovulation being delayed until next Friday! Just got to hope that yesterday’s DTD at least gives me a chance, I guess if I ovulate on Monday it would still be within the five days sperm is meant to live for. I have to remind myself it was never going to really be possible this month and focus on next month, like you say @BiscuitLover3678 a spring baby would be lovely.

BiscuitLover3678 · 08/04/2022 17:31

[quote MrsGrealish]@BiscuitLover3678 4 weeks from lmp is 21 April but I peaked early so may start earlier šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø thanks lovely 🄰 [/quote]
My apps are all saying different things - 19,20 or 21st so basically the same time. I’ll be here šŸ˜„
