Ok second thread for those of us that are still TTC an April baby.

I am CD12 so still got a bit of a wait yet...Not even at the TWW yet.

Fingers crossed this is a lucky thread for us all ✨

@Mummyme87 After having the Mirena removed my cycles were shorter and slightly irregular, it's only now (10 months later) that they're coming right.

I'm 5 DPO! Trying for no.3. AF is due on the 10th. The wait is already driving me nuts! A couple of months ago my FSH level was menopausal high, but when it was tested again it was within the normal range. My iron was really low as well. So although there is no evidence really to suggest I'm pre menopausal, it is in my head that a 3rd might not happen. But the doctor did say that there was no reason to suggest I couldn't have another baby. So I guess I'm worrying for nothing. Arrrghh!

I'm just waiting/hoping for symptoms...

Anyone had any early symptoms?

Charl881 · 01/08/2022 18:40

I’ve had blood with my EWCM today… has anyone ever had this before?

It’s a first for me though a quick Google tells me ovulation spotting can be a thing.

CD15 and still flashing smiley rather than static although I don’t usually ovulate until CD17/18 so that’s normal for me.

Hello! Can I join please? 7dpo today, stupidly did a test this morning and it was a bfn. I’ve got tingly/itchy nipples (TMI, sorry!), weird cramps in my pelvic area - they don’t feel like AF cramps but very aware of that area if that makes sense and woke up this morning on my front and felt like my uterus was really full. Probably just reading too much into it. This is cycle 6 since my MMC at Christmas ttc #2 so fingers crossed - if not, I’ll see you in May!

Nichelette · 01/08/2022 12:59

BFN here too. Due AF yesterday or today though still no sign. Tested at 3am as toddler woke me up and I was being impatient so probably didn't hold for long enough. Going to leave it until at least Friday if no AF in meantime.

thedust · 01/08/2022 09:39

CD25 here. Unsure on dpo, not really tracking as only cycle #2 but maybe 12dpo or 10dpo depending on what app I look at. Just tried to have lots of sex during that fertile week and when I felt like it! On Friday I was really sick, threw up and also had diarrhea. So the diarrhea makes me think it was food poisoning but obviously hopeful it was morning sickness (albeit ridiculously early!). AF due Thursday so I'll test on Friday if no sign.

RugbyGirl1 · 01/08/2022 08:42

@EdinburghGirl1 ah no sorry, I was correcting a typo! Sorry to hear about your BFN though πŸ˜” I'm due to test Friday or so, will no doubt be joining you soon on the May thread!

EdinburghGirl1 · 01/08/2022 08:36

@RugbyGirl1 sorry to hear this. I also got a bfn this morning so I've hopped over to the May thread instead

Morning all πŸ‘‹πŸ» tested this morning at 10DPO and its a BFN. But.... Just looking through my chart and it says I O'd on CD13 but I think it could have been CD15 which would only make me 8DPO. My temp is up again this morning too. Could anyone please offer their thoughts on this? Please be brutal if you think I'm just clutching at straws πŸ™ˆ x

I know nothing about temp charting. But imo even 10DPO is fairy early so I'd say give it another few days. AND I've also been reading about FMU not necessarily being strongest and some peoples urine is stronger in the evening. So I'd say no straws are being clutched and my fingers are crossed for you x

RugbyGirl1 · 01/08/2022 08:10

BFN* - it's too early on a Monday morning! Good luck to anyone else testing today!

@Orangesaretheonly yeah I’m not sure if covid has affected mine, I used to be 27days when TTC my 4yr old, then was on cerezette for 2yrs, came off for like a couple of weeks and thought I would give natural family planning a go before having a mirena put in and got pregnant (literally had sex once and had been off the pill 2weeks!!!!!) which was a ruptured ectopic. Had coil put in, removed after a year and now cycles are 23-27days. Meanwhile I’ve had covid three times and my three vaccines. So was it the hormonal contraception I’ve used? Mirena? Or covid/vaccines? Ovulation day just keeps moving about between CD11-15

It is annoying. You're not out until AF so my fingers are crossed for you. I also have a 4yr old- is yours starting school? If I am pregnant (🀞🏻) I'm going to be even more of a mess on her first day!!

So AF still hasn’t turned up, due tomorrow and had streaks of pink/blood/brown in my cm since Friday. Not tested today but yesterday was negative. I very much think I’m out. If AF hasn’t appeared by the morning I’ll test again but I don’t think this cycle is mine
12dpo today. I wondered if covid has had anything to do with my cycle, I had symptoms before I ovulated so wonder if it buggered it up. Gahh. 2nd time I’ve had it whilst TTC

I am sure that having Covid has shortened my cycles, could also be complete coincidence but since I've had it I've gone from 30days every month to 26-28 days. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Orangesaretheonly · 01/08/2022 07:49

Found you! 5DPO today. For some reason thought I ovulated Tuesday but just checked app and it was Weds! I am determined to wait to test until Monday 8th which is when AF is due. 🀞🏻
I feel SO bloated!

RugbyGirl1 · 01/08/2022 07:41

@Mummyme87 sorry to hear about your BNF but until AF arrives you're not out. Fingers crossed she doesn't show for you today!!

Mummyme87 · 01/08/2022 07:31

@cinderellafant congratulations!!!!

BFN, AF due today. I’ll move over to the May bird. Good luck everyone!!

Tropicana1 · 01/08/2022 00:20

Aimee1995 · 31/07/2022 21:42

@Charl881 always do it if you can find the energy, you never know when a surprise peak will hit! This month I went from reading of 0.2 to 1.73 overnight for my peak and never saw it coming!!

Nichelette · 31/07/2022 21:18

@RugbyGirl1 maybe it's a sign πŸ˜‚

Charl881 · 31/07/2022 21:16

Thanks for the new thread @hipposinacircle!
