@MamaSJ15 I think maybe Sunday

Last month my LP was 11-12 days, it was kind of over night so I'm going with 12 days so it would be Sunday... but it could be different this month. My cycles are a bit all over so I don't really have anything to go off.

MamaSJ15 · 07/10/2022 12:19

@Hjudge56 there's still time for your bfp, chin up! I'm feeling a bit crampy today, nothing major but definitely something there. 😕 I don't usually get crampy before AF, it's usually as it's arriving, but who knows.

@Havanalily1806 thank you, you too! They all sound like good signs! When is AF due for you?

Havanalily1806 · 07/10/2022 10:59

@Hjudge56 @MamaSJ15 good luck both of you! I think I'm in a similar place in my cycle.. currently 10DPO today, last month my LP was 12-13 days (AF arrived at night so not sure what to go off😅)

Ive had lots of different symptoms this month to last, dull aches and twinges days 6-7. Nausea I can't shift since 8DP0, headache and exhausted yesterday, and my BBT has really spiked the last two mornings.

Don't want to get my hopes up but it's so hard to ignore things in TWW!

Hjudge56 · 07/10/2022 10:57

Ah I’ve just tested and BFN! Don’t have much faith left this cycle

Hjudge56 · 07/10/2022 10:35

@MamaSJ15 got my fingers crossed for you! Yeah I think less is more is smart! A lot of people I’ve seen on here tend to fall pregnant on the cycle they only DTD once or twice! So hopefully this is your month ☺️ We DTD 2 days before ovulation and the day of ovulation (I think! Just went off Ewcm this cycle!) so I’d say well timed like you but god knows! AF is due Tuesday!

MrsCristianoX · 06/10/2022 22:15

@MamaSJ15 @Hjudge56 so close! Good luck xx

MamaSJ15 · 06/10/2022 21:10

@Hjudge56 AF due Saturday, you? I want to feel hopeful but I'm just trying not to think too much about it because I don't want to be too disappointed again (bit of a silly thing to say cause I'm sure I'll be disappointed anyway!). We only DTD once but it was well timed, I'm hoping the 'less is more' approach works 🙈 how do you feel this cycle?

Hjudge56 · 06/10/2022 20:54

@MamaSJ15 oh lovely! I’m 9DPO so we’re on a similar path which is nice! When is AF due for you? Are you feeling hopeful this cycle?

MamaSJ15 · 06/10/2022 20:48

@Hjudge56 I'm all good thanks 😊 keeping myself busy with work, a toddler and a house move 👍😂
CD27 for me today, AF due Saturday. Short luteal phase so only 8/9dpo at the moment! How about you? You doing okay?

Hjudge56 · 06/10/2022 16:35

@MrsCristianoX sending you a big hug!!! I can only imagine how your feeling after that news 😔 but maybe a break will do you good!

@MamaSJ15 how are you feeling? Whereabouts are you in your cycle now?

MamaSJ15 · 05/10/2022 20:56

@Tropicana1 thank you 😊🤞

Tropicana1 · 05/10/2022 20:46

@MrsCristianoX ah gutted for you! I know what you mean feel like I know you all too 🤣
Hopefully 8 weeks and you'll be right back on the horse
@MamaSJ15 ah got my fingers crossed for this weekend for you

@MrsCristianoX I'm not surprised, I would be too. Always bad timing isn't it! So is this a break from TTC or a stop altogether? I haven't had a DM, just in case you'd sent one 🙈

MrsCristianoX · 05/10/2022 19:04

@MamaSJ15 omg yea this feels as bad as a breakup. I've been in tears most of the day. I'm out for 8 weeks. And a fertility cup delivered today ...cheers Amazon. I'll dm you 😘

MamaSJ15 · 05/10/2022 17:37

@MrsCristianoX oh I'm so sorry, that's rubbish news! I feel like I know you too to be honest! If you'd like to keep in touch then we could always WhatsApp, but I understand if you'd rather not, and to move on easier. ❤️

MrsCristianoX · 05/10/2022 16:26

@alwaysseeingstars oh no don't worry Im not on the verge of death it's just with my previous stroke and recent blood tests I need treatment which the doctors were ok to withhold until today when I rang to ask about results. Now it's you need this, we can't overlook 🤷‍♀️ I'm also on a waiting list for heart surgery but with covid I could be waiting a while 😅 I have 3 beautiful children I'm all good Xx

alwaysseeingstars · 05/10/2022 15:39

@MrsCristianoX oh 😔 I'm so sorry to hear that lovely, I hope you're ok otherwise?? xx

MrsCristianoX · 05/10/2022 14:54

After two conversations with doctors today, I'm going to have to put a pin in ttc. I wish you girls all the luck in the world ❤️ feel quite sad weirdly. I don't know you ladies at all but feel like I do Xx

MamaSJ15 · 05/10/2022 13:36

@Tropicana1 I have no idea 🙈 hoping to wait until Sunday but who knows if I'll have the willpower! I have a short luteal phase though so it's silly of me to test any earlier because not enough time has passed!
@alwaysseeingstars oh wow that's gone so fast!

alwaysseeingstars · 05/10/2022 08:26

@MamaSJ15 glad she's settling in well! 😊 I'm 13+3 today.
@MrsCristianoX obviously I have no idea how to know if it helped but I was just using the seven seas trying for a baby vitamins, OH was taking Holland & Barrett 'Ultra Man' as they covered all his general a-z vits as well as some fertility ones, and we used Conceive Plus lube the two times we tried that cycle (hadn't used it before that). Don't know if that's helpful!!

MrsCristianoX · 04/10/2022 23:16

@Tropicana1 gonna give them to DH too. He loves a vitamin 😂

MrsCristianoX · 04/10/2022 23:14

@Tropicana1 o my!! That has flown in. You'll get to see the reason you feel so sick and it will be so worth it xx

I am going to go mad with vitamins this month and actually take them and wait for it..bought a bloody fertility cup! That'll be a joy to use. I'm actually ok I knew on Saturday with the pms rage just annoyed coz I got a good peak and seemed to time it right. Obviously not. Or it was a bag egg. I wish there were more answers without paying a fortune 🙁

Tropicana1 · 04/10/2022 23:07

@MrsCristianoX sorry af arrived 😭 been having mumsnet app issues on my phone so not managed to get on since your last test and was really hoping for a strong positive for you. Onto the next!

@MamaSJ15 good luck for the weekend! When will you test?

I've got my 12 week scan on Sunday and telling myself my nausea will just magically disappear immediately afterwards 🤣
