Hey hey, making this thread to lead on from last months. I’m 1 or 2 dpo today and I’m going to try and not symptom spot this month!! Also going to try my best to not test until 12dpo at the earliest!

what DPO are you all?

Just had another positive ovulation test I’m so confused 😫 I’m only 7dpo so would assume it’s too early to be pregnancy related

will have to trust it and keep dtd incase the first one was a random LH surge

gosh this is complicated!!

@PPop I’m awful with doing my BBT!! I’m gonna be the same if I’m out this month, try and track properly for once 😂

@Peeonastick22 I would be chuffed to bits to not drink and rock out regardless! So still holding a little hope!

Thank you for that I was panicking my body was too hinky and hadn't done anything useful 😂 I wish I'd been better with my BBT just couldn't get into a rhythm of the time to do it and then the cold set in which made it so much harder to do!! Next month!

@PPop to be honest I’ve had full cycles with no positive OPKs but had every symptom of ovulation, and have read a lot of women saying the same thing! I’m guessing some women either have very quick LH surges that are hard to catch, or lower LH levels when ovulation occurs! Every body is different hey!

New Years Eve rock concert sounds fab!! Will keep my fingers crossed that you don’t get to drink though 😉

@Mortima that is lovely!! So excited for you!!

@Peeonastick22 fingers firmly crossed for a BFP!!

Thanks both I'm so confused as had consistent LH but only missed one day, I mean I can't really get dipping my stick in pee wrong?! Always do it last thing before bed, make sure I haven't peed 2 hours before, and previously I've had results so I'm confused as heck!
Apart from a period of time when DH had his tooth out we have been active so hopefully whatever is going on has been caught if not I guess I can drink at our New Year's Eve rock party we are going to 😂

@Mortima I was thinking if this is my month, I might pretend to drink 😂 although that might be obvious. Finding out whilst looking at the test together is lovely ❤️

@PPop that sounds so frustrating!! Fingers crossed you caught it as some point if you have ovulated

If this isn’t my month then my body is being so mean. I have tender boobs which I absolutely never get and I’m very gassy, also never get, and have pinching in lower abdomen unlike what I’ve had in previous cycles (I’m 6dpo)

Thanks everyone 😊DH knows; I took the test first thing yesterday morning and brought it back into our bed to wait for it to develop, and we looked at it together. It was lovely. I think we'll have to end up telling both of our families at Christmas, which will be really early still, but it will be obvious if I'm not drinking.

@PPop How confusing for you- keep testing! Hope you manage to catch/have caught it 🤞

PPop · 11/12/2022 20:26

@Emmalou0607 I think I'm out... unless I haven't ovulated yet 😂 I'm still very confused my LH 0.19 yesterday which is the highest it's been since 29/11 at 0.29. But the app says I'm ovulating today at CD27 I haven't felt much going on but we DTD anyway.
Just in case I've ovulated the weekend I thought I was gonna (the original date on the app before it changed) I did a pregnancy test... but that was whiter then the very best hotel sheets! 🤦‍♀️

Emmalou0607 · 11/12/2022 19:23

How are you getting on @PPop ?

Emmalou0607 · 11/12/2022 19:23

Ohhh how exciting! Congratulations @Mortima 😘😘

@Mortima so pleased for you, crossing everything for you. The positive digital is a good sign. ❤️❤️

MillieKitty · 11/12/2022 09:42

Congratulations @Mortima , fantastic news before Christmas 🥰🥰🥰

Mortima · 11/12/2022 08:30

Morning everyone - some good news for me today, at 11PO (sorry for the shit pic).
I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much, but so far these lines are much better than last month (and the positive digital, which I didn't get before). Doesn't guarantee anything of course, but it's not a bad thing.

1-2 DPO time to TWW 31.10.2022
Wrenegade · 10/12/2022 18:32

@Emmalou0607 sorry to hear you’re out this month. I know it isn’t the same but enjoy a drink at Christmas! Next cycle is a new year.

@Mortima I have told two close friends, I couldn’t keep it in and it was helpful to have some reassurance about symptoms.

@Peeonastick22 thats really encourage! Will have everything crossed for you. Will testing be the week of Christmas?!

I was a little nervous to begin with, now I’m past when AF was due I am feeling like I can relax and be excited. Everyone in the family is expecting and it was hard whilst trying but now the idea of having so many cousins close in age is exciting.

Peeonastick22 · 10/12/2022 10:46

@Wrenegade yeah got the strongest opk I’ve had since I started tracking! Don’t 100% trust it but we’ve been dtd regularly anyway so will hopefully have caught it/will catch it!

that sounds positive! Are you feeling excited?

@Emmalou0607 ahh so sorry to hear that! I’ve been thinking the same, if I’m out this month at least I can have some wine for Christmas!

OP posts:
Emmalou0607 · 10/12/2022 09:38

@Mortima that's what I've been telling myself. It will at least help me through Christmas with the in-laws 😂

Mortima · 10/12/2022 09:02

@Emmalou0607 Oh no, I'm sorry Flowers It's a rubbish feeling. I hope you get to enjoy some wine over Christmas, at least.

@Wrenegade Glad you're still doing ok, if tired - have you told anyone apart from DH?

Emmalou0607 · 09/12/2022 15:42

I'm out this month 😔 good luck to everyone still waiting! 🤞

Wrenegade · 09/12/2022 13:14

@Peeonastick22 how confusing, hopefully the faulty temping is the reason you haven’t confirmed it. I can’t remember if you have you been using OPKs?

I’m doing ok thanks. I’m surprised at how much I am feeling mild pain, twinges and cramping. My body seems to be being effected very quickly, mostly feeling tired.

Peeonastick22 · 09/12/2022 09:08

@Wrenegade 3dpo today although not confirmed with temping!

how are you feeling?

OP posts:
Wrenegade · 08/12/2022 20:42

@Mortima and @Emmalou0607 wishing you both positive weekends, keep us updated. You both have so much more discipline than me to wait to test. Today is 14 dpo for me so in theory the day I should have tested.

@Peeonastick22 sorry that your thermometer has been off, how frustrating. Mine is definitely effected by the temp of the room! Where about in your cycle are you at the moment?

Emmalou0607 · 08/12/2022 19:53

@Mortima same here with the caving! Especially when you've got tests at home it makes it so easy to just check.

Spent most of this week working in the office rather than at home which has taken part of the temptation away 😂

Fingers crossed for a positive weekend for us!
