Hoping For a BFP in April

Yeah my ovulation kit from easy@home just arrived so going to wait for AF, assuming it'll come tomorrow as was due today! And focus on the next cycle. Fingers crossed for us all!

@MissBlue93 omg, make you question those test now! I really want to test only if i have missed my period as i was disappointed last month too. Hopefully i have the patience as it is hard.

Yeah I know but since then they've all been negative and I did this one now that had a line but it's clearly an indent as everything else is neg! So frustrating. The pic with a stronger line is one I randomly took during my period last month which proves how crap they are for indents! As I wasn't pregnant then either x

@MissBlue93 this is so strange, your frer had a good faint line, but i did have some light pink lines on them last month and i am sure they were just indent but definitely weren't like yours. And you had faint on different brands didn't you? Ah fingers crossed AF doesnt show and things turn around. Xx Ttc is awful and exhausting when you want it so much.

My AF due today and no show. Negative tests despite having faint lines during the week. Looks like perhaps a chemical 😔 did a FRER this morning and the faintest line so looked like an indent. They'd of been stronger by now considering weds I had one with a faint but clear line. No LH surge either but going to track it once AF comes as this month we just winged it!

Hi ladies just checking in, CD26 of a usual 30/31 day cycle, still have 4-5 days of going crazy and hoping for the best! Think I’m roughly 8dpo had to pee on an opk to just shift the need to poas!!! Zero symptoms as usual which always gets me down!! Good luck to all xx🍀
PS has the May thread been made? Think I’ll be needed it!😩

Well done you on being so patient! Do whatever you feel, i personally wouldn't wait that long, with my first i had a very strong positive on date Af due. Good luck x

Pretty sure I'm out for April 🙁 See some of you in the May thread!

Welp af is now 3 days late, bo symptoms really other than a bit of boob ache but nothing severe unless they're touched. Haven't tested yet as I'm too scared and just waiting for her to show up anytime really. I'm trying to decide whether to brave it and do a test tomorrow morning or wait until I'm a week late

@curliegirlie oh yeah I'm due af at the start of may too oops haha

@MissBlue93 it's likely 1-2 days after peak opk but it's easier to pinpoint with bbt as you'll see a temp rise once you've ovulated

Hehe, yeah well, we’ve been pretty active over the Easter holidays as we’ve been on annual leave (so less tired/stressed), so it’s irritating that probably none of this copious DTD-ing is likely to have been in my fertile window! I just wish I knew for certain what is going on…

I’m also posting in the wrong group really too, as expecting my cycle to end around 9th May if it’s 30 days again…

Quick q ladies, assuming my AF comes this weekend.

I've ordered easy@home ovulation strips as I'd like to try and figure out when I'm ovulating. How do you count your DPO start date? When you get a peak test? Or from the day after peak etc? I'm also tracking my BBT now too so what am I looking for with that regarding ovulation? Thanks!

@curliegirlie what a pain, especially when you've started dtd a lot in anticipation of ovulation and it seems to never arrive, gets exhausting 😂

Ha, if you think the TWW game is slow you should try the waiting to ovulate when your cycle is a bit wonky game! I don’t temp as I think I have too many random wake-ups but I’m ov testing and on CD15 and although I’m expecting to ovulate any day now (last cycle was 30 days) my second lines have pretty much properly disappeared after being 0.28/0.3 on CD11 and CD12 🤔🤷‍♀️

It really is going SO slow @Sassy144 🙄😩🙄

@allthingssparkly that's great it is easier to see there, it's easier to make sense of it all when you have a whole cycle in front of you too. Only a few days in and the tww is going excruciatingly slow!

Thank you @Sassy144 I have inputted my temps into the fertility friend app and it's much easier to make sense of the chart 😊

Counting down the days till the TWW is over 🤣

@allthingssparkly yes totally normal to still go up and down slightly. Mine's a bit down on yesterday too. @Purple29 @Kitty901 I'm also in the 23/24 day cycle club.

I did an ovulation calculator and I'm supposed to be ovulating from yesterday (20th) but the ovulation tests keep coming back negative. Is this normal?

Is it normal to get temp dips throughout the TWW when BBT @Sassy144? My temp seems to be ever so slightly lower in comparison to yesterday 🤔

I need to find a better BBT chart to plot my readings as this one doesn't give me a clear lime to show temps before ovulation like yours does.

@Kitty901 thanks ill try all of these. I also take CoQ10. When my cycle started after DS I seemed to have settled into 27 days, but since my ectopic they have been shorter.

@Purple29 my cycles are also 23-24 days long. I take vit b, vit c and seven seas, hope those work. Mine has been like this since the birth of our child.

@Purple29 are you taking pregnacare? That made my periods shorter
