Hi all just creating a new thread since the other one is almost full!!! Really really hoping this is our month, but not hopeful, DH is away with work for most of my FW and only comes home the day before I think I will ov. I've also injured my back!!!

Could I ask how most people are tracking ovulation dates? I'm using the fertility friend app and tracking BBT as that's what worked to conceive DD1 nearly 4 years ago but I wondered what works for everyone else?

@Baby3herewego oh wow really?! That's definitely got my hopes up now! Terrified but sooo want my rainbow!

@MendaciousMabel I'm 3DPO and feels like Iv got a cold coming too 😩xx

MendaciousMabel · 19/10/2022 18:31

5dpo for me now - had some unusual twinges earlier today, enough to make me wince a bit! I've been super tired this week too, falling asleep early and straight away which isn't like me either. But I've now got a sore throat so I'm wondering if I've caught dreaded lurgy from work which is going around atm and that's why I'm so tired!

I am now 4dpo and I actually am discounting this cycle. We dtd on cd9, got my peak on cd12 and then couldn't dtd again until cd14 and 15. So think we will have missed it!!!

Actually nice as it hasn't been playing on my mind. If it works next cycle I'll find out right before my 40th. Would be the best gift ever!!!

@ScaredSally I had that and got my bfp!!!

shibeshibe · 19/10/2022 16:48

7dpo and starting to feel like my period is coming and one really sore boob. I am hopeful its a sign of good things but realise it's probably just pms, although i have regular cycles and dont usually get sore boobs until one or two days before AF. Holding off the test for Saturday or Sunday 10/11dpo but feeling like it's gonna be me doing one on Friday as I can't help myself. 🤣

Congrats @Baby3herewego !

ScaredSally · 19/10/2022 16:06

8dpo and had an increase in really watery CM...sign? I don't remember if this is normal or not

kizzy97 · 19/10/2022 14:06

CD 20 today, 9 days to go until test day 😬

821k · 19/10/2022 14:01

Thank you @Baby3herewego 🤞I hope so too I am starting to get discharge again now and we have been having it every 2-3 days xx

Sparklythings1 · 19/10/2022 13:29

@CheeryCupcake I always wee in a little cup so I have it there in case I want to do another test. It’s definitely possible it’s not had enough to be able to detect it

Baby3herewego · 19/10/2022 13:26

@821k I’ve been taking the before conception pregnacare so hopefully you’ll have some luck with them too xx

CheeryCupcake · 19/10/2022 12:59

Not to clutch at straws but is it possible to get a BFN if you somehow don't do the test right? Like don't wee on it for long enough or something?

CheeryCupcake · 19/10/2022 12:55

I caved and did another test today, 11/12 dpo now, AF due today but no sign yet. BFN. Confused. If AF doesn't show up by Saturday I'll do another test then. Now to distract myself until then....

821k · 19/10/2022 12:36

I have ordered pregnacare before conception vitamins which are being delivered today so I am going to start taking them today @Baby3herewego xx

821k · 19/10/2022 12:33

Congratulations @Baby3herewego we are trying again and hoping to get pregnant with our rainbow 🌈 baby soon we did the deed on Friday night and then again on Monday and we are going to do the deed again tonight it is a 11 days ago since I misscarried 🤞we get pregnant again soon xx

iloveeggs · 19/10/2022 12:33

@Baby3herewego Amazing, congrats.

I'm 9DPO but I feel like my period is coming, just got to wait and see 🙏

Mummyme87 · 19/10/2022 11:57

That’s lovely @Baby3herewego congratulations again

@Sunbird24 im sorry you got a bfn, everything crossed for you

CD3 today. Just plodding along

Baby3herewego · 19/10/2022 11:42

Last day of testing for me. I got my 2-3 weeks on the digital and I think my FRER is a dye stealer today. I feel like I can relax a little now.

How is everyone feeling/doing today?

Hoping for a BFP October/November
Sparklythings1 · 19/10/2022 09:23

@scaredsally it’s just too tempting, I feel like 9dpo will be a waste of time and I’ve only got 2 FRERs and a clearblue so don’t want to have to go and buy more if I still don’t have an answer by 12dpo like last time 🤦🏼‍♀️ My cycles are all over the place but if I make it to Saturday without AF itl be cd30 so possibly quite a decent clue that I am pregnant, I hope 🤞🏼

Sunbird24 · 19/10/2022 08:40

I’m 6dp5dt (translates to 11dpo) and on a BFN. Not feeling very hopeful.

Daisy155 · 19/10/2022 08:35

Good luck to everyone fingers crossed for you all waiting to test xx

ScaredSally · 19/10/2022 06:11

@Sparklythings1 im going to test at the weekend too but reckon I'll cave and test early on Friday before work haha just too impatient!

Sparklythings1 · 18/10/2022 22:58

@Sunny1986 there’s so many variables with these things too, I think that’s the problem though, you just want a definite answer! Fingers crossed for tomorrow. Used to hate wasting tests too early but at the same time the temptation was always too much! I’m testing on Saturday at 10dpo as my earliest but I guarantee on Friday morning I’ll consider it 🙈

Sunny1986 · 18/10/2022 20:41

Sparklythings1 · 17/10/2022 23:01

@Sunny1986 I didn’t get one til 12dpo last time so you’re definitely still in with a decent chance.. maybe tomorrow morning you’ll be lucky 🤞🏼

Good to hear, thanks! I did another FRER this morning and nothing. But still v light spotting... can't help hoping 🤞
