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!!!

Should be ovulating any day now, don't think I can face another failed cycle

staceymarieox · 16/11/2022 10:40

AF finally showed her face today after 42 days 😭

Kind of gutted but was also kind of relieved because it had been so long and no sign of BFP! Onto a fresh cycle now :)

Good luck to everyone :)

Daisy155 · 15/11/2022 21:53

Aww Sorry AF arrived so frustrating!!
Yes on to the next cycle and my fingers are crossed for you for the next cycle! And this cycle I will wait until the missed AF I am so hopeful but we will see!

BCxx · 15/11/2022 20:28

@Daisy155 I think that’s the best plan! AF arrived this morning, so slowly I hoped it was maybe implantation at first 😩 I’d already wasted a clearblue at 5am! Onto the next cycle.. this is getting boring now 🙄😂 good luck!

Daisy155 · 15/11/2022 13:24

@JosieB68 I can see something there that so exciting xx

@Bananatoast123 sorry to hear this xx

kizzy97 · 15/11/2022 10:42

I see it @JosieB68 everything crossed xx

JosieB68 · 15/11/2022 10:09

11 DPO and think I just got my first BFP 🤩 very faint with a first response early test but the second line is definitely there.

13dpo and BFN. Had a little glimmer of hope yesterday with some spotting but it was definitely just pre-period spotting. Just waiting for AF and onto the next now… hopefully cycle 10 is our lucky one.

Daisy155 · 14/11/2022 21:29

@BCxx yes clear blue just gets to the point thankfully 😅 that’s what I also have this time I didn’t buy First response on purpose because I would be tempted to test before AF. I am really going to be disciplined this time around! 😂 Good luck for tomorrow’s testing!

@Knov20 that’s good you are having some sort of signs of something coming up the cramps and twinges I hope they turn out to be a BFP and also good luck 😉 for the weekend!

so anxious and excited for us all!

Knov20 · 14/11/2022 20:51

@Daisy155 yep in the TWW here. Can't really test until probably the weekend. Keep having cramps and wee twinges but wondering if it's My period coming because I actually don't know my cycle yet as just off the coil!

BCxx · 14/11/2022 19:47

@Daisy155 thanks, and you! Haha I had the phone torch out this morning too 😂 Right at the edge of it I was starting to see the hint of something but then I’d look away and look back and it just looked completely stark white! I’ve only got clearblue digitals left so itl be a yes or no tomorrow and I’ll move on with my day 😂

Daisy155 · 14/11/2022 18:24

Good luck @BCxx Its so frustrating when you start seeing all the lines, last cycle wasn’t as good as this cycle but here I was using my phone light to really see all the lines 😂😂 my DH was cracking up!

Bananatoast123 · 14/11/2022 17:27

@UserL95 youre right we are!!

no way I’d remember seeds as well as vitamins 🤣 good on you though!! As soon as AF comes I’m going to do everything I did last month again I think! Although we go away in my tww and not sure I can get all my vitamins through security 🤣

BCxx · 14/11/2022 17:20

8 or 9dpo for me today and another bfn this morning on a frer, I stared at it to the point my eyes were creating lines everywhere I looked 😂 I was bursting for a wee when I woke up so think I was too hydrated anyway, need to limit water tonight!

BCxx · 14/11/2022 17:19

@Ballygowenwater congratulations, what a nice surprise 🎉

Daisy155 · 14/11/2022 16:50

In my Tww test day 23rd I have said I won’t test until missing AF I am trying not to symptom spot I have planned out my week but I keep getting heartburn then I am like is it ? 🧐 could it be 😏

this is the longest TWW 😩😂 anyone else in the TWW?

Daisy155 · 14/11/2022 16:47

@Ballygowenwater aww congratulations that’s so lovely 🥰 Xxx

UserL95 · 14/11/2022 16:31

@Bananatoast123 stay strong girl!! We are all in this together xx

seed cycling is including seeds in your diet pre and post ovulation. Flax and pumpkin before, sesame and sunflower after. All to do with regulating hormones and stuff naturally apparently - thought it can’t hurt to try though I defo deont remember to have them every day

Bananatoast123 · 14/11/2022 13:52

Just seen this sorry!! Big congratulations @Ballygowenwater enjoy every second xx

kizzy97 · 14/11/2022 13:37

Huge congratulations @Ballygowenwater xx

Bananatoast123 · 14/11/2022 12:56

@UserL95 yesss! I’m not sure how much of it is a myth but I have to say I do feel healthier as a whole with the vitamins etc and with eating better, so a bit of a win! Will have to try pomegranate juice next time - I’d give the blood test a try, it’s definitely given me peace of mind that all my hormone levels are ok.

what’s seed cycling?

I hope you’re right, for the both of us! But we will get there and your message has really helped thank you 💜 I’m such an over thinker so I do think I’ll always like let my head go “what if it’s this”! I think once we get OH tested and myself a scan and if they’re all ok I’ll probably be like right I can just let nature decide when. I say this but I’ll probably find something 🤣

UserL95 · 14/11/2022 09:57

@Ballygowenwater this is such a beautiful BFP to share with your OH! Congratulations xx

@Bananatoast123 yes i heard about this, warm feet = warm uterus and you’re meant to eat warm foods too like soups and avoid things like salads. I also have pomegranate juice which is meant to help progesterone in the TWW. I forgot to say I’m seed cycling this month too. Gosh I can barely keep up!
Having your progesterone tests come back is another small win. hopefully these little wins at a time will lead to a bigger win right? I want to tell you to stay hopeful but I get how hard it can be.
AF may be a few days early due to possible CP aswell trying to empty out the uterus? Try not to worry about LP too much

Bananatoast123 · 14/11/2022 09:44

@UserL95 I think so too. I’ve not had this many symptoms pre AF and this early before… like sore boobs, cramps/twinges, gassy, headaches and so so tired! I’m 2 months behind you so how strange!! I’ve started spotting now, which if AF comes today means my LP was only 11 days which I’m not sure if concerning or not! My progesterone test at 7dpo was v good tho so I’m a bit unsure!

Oooo I really hope this is your month! Sounds like you’re doing all the right stuff 🙂 I’ve read how in Chinese medicine they believe in the TWW about staying warm so socks always on and hot water bottle etc!

buttercupbee · 14/11/2022 09:25

@Ballygowenwater congratulations!! 💕

Ballygowenwater · 14/11/2022 08:53

I had a clear blue in the cupboard I was keeping till I was positive to show my partner, figured it would be easier for him to read and…..
