Don’t know what I’m doing with the emojis this time!

Who else is on for Jan? When would you be due?

I’m on cycle day 1 boooooo. Due to ovulate 2nd May. I think is due date 24th January.

So I’ll be testing around 15th May

@BiscuitLover3678 oh he was able to just (how do I put this delicately) couldn't finish? 🙈 yea tomorrow would work too. We DTD CD8 so CD11 wouldn't be too far of a stretch.

I hope it works for you tomorrow. Completely get why you’ve be frustrated!

@Charl881 you'll be pregnant @BiscuitLover3678 you will get pregnant and I'll be here not pregnant 😭 but I got a promotion in work yesterday so yay 😢 (I could not give one f*k about promotions tbh)

You don’t know that - I’m sorry he’s not able to :(

A promotion is amazing btw and will be so good when you have a fourth.

I feel like you still have a few days? Can you try again tomorrow?

@Charl881 for sure the chemical has made it late. Not too much longer hopefully 🙏. Good god I didn't show him the OPK but he has definitely guessed. Literally could cry. Haven't had an OPK that dark in ages

Charl881 · 26/04/2022 20:28

@MrsGrealish oh no! I don’t tell mine if it’s a positive OPK although I think he guesses now.

@BiscuitLover3678 thanks but I’m pretty sure it’s just a case of waiting for AF since we only DTD once. I’m never more than a day late but I did start taking some medication a couple of days ago so wondering if that’s delayed it, plus the chemical last month could have thrown things off I guess.

Charl881 · 26/04/2022 19:44

I’m going to fall massively behind you on this cycle I think @BiscuitLover3678. AF was due yesterday but hasn’t arrived. All negative tests. Even if I ovulated late I wouldn’t have caught as it’s been 19 days since we DTD. I’m at least 13dpo so could still get a BFP but I imagine it’s unlikely. Just waiting for her to show, I hate being late!

Ooh will be thinking of you!

@Charl881 this would be all well and good if DH didn't get stage fright 🤦‍♀️ the night is young though

Charl881 · 26/04/2022 20:14

@MrsGrealish thought I was yesterday but AF never showed so I was premature in saying Cd1 😂 That’s very positive OPK!

MrsGrealish · 26/04/2022 19:51

@Charl881 I thought u were CD1..CD10 for me and boom 💥 positive ovulation test.

@lyra12 hey!

So with my son I got a faint BFP on 9DPO so going to try and hold out til then. But this time I'm breastfeeding so I'm not holding out much hope as my cycles have been very short and I'm not convinced I'm fully fertile yet (short luteal phase last cycle) but you never know - fingers crossed.

When will you test?

When I was pregnant before I had heart burn and headaches and bloating before I got my bfp.

Weirdly today I have loads of CM and I normally dry up post ovulation - really strange!

That’s a lot of symptoms’ good luck this month.

I’ve been useless on tracking this month, think I’m giving up a bit. Worked out I’m on CD8. Will start properly checking cm from now on. Not sure I can be bothered with opks. Let’s see!

@Charl881 love a fresh cycle!! Full of hope and dreams..till the progesterone hits you on week 3😂 CD9 for me today and lh seems to be on the up

Charl881 · 25/04/2022 13:00

@MrsGrealish yay was hoping you’d make it over here. I’m CD1, ready to give it a proper go again this month.

lyra12 · 25/04/2022 08:46

@parkrunsandpinot with my DD I got a dark BFP at 12dpo and didn't actually test before so I'm going to test 10dpo. I was violently sick at 10dpo with my DD and my HG kicked in a week later - I'm so so so dreading that happening again.

I'm twingey in ovary area and my boobs are a bit twingey too. But of course I will over analyse every slight twinge at this point haha! I really can't remember what symptoms I had before BFP with DD other than sickness. I think my nipples were sensitive and went a bit dark.

Moving over if you'll have me. Last cycle was 24 days..CD8 today. Here we go again

lyra12 · 24/04/2022 22:24

@parkrunsandpinot 1dpo and DTD 1 day before ovu too!!! When are you gonna test?

parkrunsandpinot · 24/04/2022 19:41

Hope it's ok to join too :-) I'm 1DPO today. Dtd day before ovulation and that's it this month as DH says I put too much pressure on him 🙈 but it worked to conceive our DS so fingers crossed! Good luck everyone

Hi ladies can I join you?

I'm cycle #1 TTC (again) after multiple losses. No living children yet but had a loss in Jan 2020 (5weeks), MMC in Oct 2020 (12 weeks) and MMC in May 2021 (11weeks). We've taken nearly a year off to heal in every sense of the word and for testing with reoccurring miscarriage clinic.

This is my 1st cycle TTC and currently cd29 and I think possibly 10-11dpo..my cycles have been ALL over the place since my last loss so who knows where I'm at. I didn't do any opk tests or anything just keeping a casual eye in cm.

Xx

HR2022 · 23/04/2022 12:30

May I join this thread? I’m 6DPO today and find myself searching through every symptom possible every evening. This is my first cycle TTC so not holding out huge hope this time round as came off the POP pill this month too. So desperate to test but know it way too soon!

Reading through these threads is getting me through to TWW!

Hope you all get your BFPs soon! X

lyra12 · 23/04/2022 10:45

Ovulation day 🤞 DTD last night and 2 nights ago, should probably again today but I might just leave it at that and see what happens. Urgh bloody hate the TWW though, it really drags doesn't it

Bubblesandballoons · 23/04/2022 07:07

@Charl881 it’s so much nicer when you have other things to think about when ttc. When is af due?
Welcome @lyra12, I tried the month that I would be due on my ds’s bday, as figured we’d work round it.
@Amber17 welcome I am cd5 today too. Nice when a few of us are similar to navigate the tww together.
