CD1 here, starting a new thread for those who are hoping to get a BFP in May for a January/February baby 🥰

This is my cycle 3 trying for #2. I've got an 18mo old son.

Now started with nausea (induced by my coffee 🤢) which was one of my first indicators with DS and went off coffee for my entire pregnancy but my cervix is low which dosen't give me much hope as it's supposed to be low before you start af but I don't consistently check that so I'm not sure 😫

MissBlue93 · 24/05/2022 12:23

Cd31 for me so it's gone longer than usual 28 days but as I said before I ovulated late.. however I've just had some brown/red spotting so looks like AF coming. Temp dropped even more today, 11DPO.
Have joined the June thread ready!

@Decaffe absolutely would have wine!
@kizzy97 af?
@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing any luck today?
@Izzyboo1234 sadly it’s one of them things isn’t it 🙁🥹 it always happens eventually it just absorbs our lives trying 🤣

Haha totally!

Hopefulprincess · 24/05/2022 10:38

@Salcal maybe see a slight line , good luck! Sometimes people implant Late then it takes days for hcg to show in wee. People get disheartened with bfn at 9-10 dpo but many havnt even implanted yet at that point

@Salcal fingers crossed for you!

Thanks for replying Catred4! Yes that’s definitely a possibility. I’ll test in the morning to see and hopefully get an answer one way or another asap 🤞🏼 I got it from Amazon it’s the selfCheck pregnancy tests - they’re a bit expensive and possibly not worth the money but a faint line came up in the timeframe so I’ll keep you posted 🤣

Catred4 · 23/05/2022 20:21

@Salcal hi! I think I may be able to see something on the second internet cheapie test but it's so hard to tell on this app. I wonder if maybe you just ovulated later than you thought (and maybe the same with your previous pregnancy) which is why positives are showing later than they would with most people. I've never seen one of those blood tests before! Where did you get it?

Salcal · 23/05/2022 17:58

Hi all, just wondering if you could help..

no sign of AF and potentially 14dpo today by my app (not sure when I ovulated)

Had spotting (?imp bleeding) from the 19th pm to yesterday am and nothing since. First picture was from 20th (not too much to see but maybe a shadow of a line on bottom stick), second pic is from this morning and then did a hcg blood test (third pic) this afternoon with a vvv faint line.. please can someone tell me I’m not crazy and imagining these lines? 🤣

Also: do some people just generally take longer to get a BFP on a urine dip? I tested positive at 20dpo in my previous pregnancy and wondered if it’s happened to others and whether I just take longer for BFP

@Decaffe deffo have some wine! Sounds like you've earned it

kizzy97 · 23/05/2022 11:03

@Hopefulprincess af isn't here yet! I was due yesterday took a test and it was negative but she still isn't here yet xx

Decaffe · 23/05/2022 09:06

Hi all, just checking in. Life has been absolutely manic over the past few weeks:

  • the HSG ‘bounce’ didn’t happen in April. The research shows it lasts for three cycles so we have two left
  • we have been so busy that we only got chance to DTD on ov-1 and ov day.
  • I have been referred for IVF! After lots of research, I have decided to go to a clinic that specialises in natural and mild IVF.
Currently 4dpo but honestly work and life are just hectic at the moment so I’m not tracking any symptoms or anything like that. I’m out with friends on Thursday though - would you have some wine?

@Izzyboo1234 I’m so sorry 😞 here if you need anyone to talk too ! Have had far too many it doesn’t get easier 💜
@kizzy97 sorry for af !
@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing your as bad as me on tests 🤣😂 I see lines on all good luck 🤞

so I’m cd 6 today af normally buggered off by now but still going! My first super light day of af I took a test and look…. Not sure if Evap or chemical? This af has been different to normal and previous chem ones I don’t get it 😞 Iv booked a private fertility appointment just to get everything checked as my cycles are different now. I had private assistance with my last child after the consecutive losses one 3rd trimester

I am so sorry for your losses, I feel for everyone who has to go through this. I always had empathy and sympathy, but going through it add understanding. It’s an awful thing.
I hope you get some answers, always here to listen 💐 Thank you for your support.

Sorry to hear that @Izzyboo1234. I’ve had multiple miscarriages and it doesn’t get easier. Hope you’re okay.

I think I’m out 😔 10 dpo and the vvvfl on FRER has disappeared. Also bfn on cheapies which are always positive for me from 9dpo if I’m pregnant. Period due on Thursday so looking forward to that so I can crack on with next cycle!

I’m sorry 😞 always a disappointment and I wish you all of the luck for your next cycle.
it is a rubbish situation isn’t it! So many emotions and so many thoughts/questions 😞

@Izzyboo1234 sorry for your loss 💐

Thank you. I have been met with such kindness on Mumsnet. You are all great 💐

kizzy97 · 22/05/2022 11:01

Welp af due today, done a test and BFN 😭 onto another cycle I guess

TeddyBeans · 22/05/2022 06:44

Starting to feel a bit cautiously optimistic about this cycle... I've had a few sharp pains (like ovulation pains) and some dull aches which doesn't usually happen and my BBT dipped this morning, I'm hoping that's a good sign, but I'm not sure if it's a big enough drop. AF due on the 29th and I go camping on the 27th 😬
