Hi,

Currently trying for DC 2, already have a 2 year old DS.

I should have ovulated today 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Anyone else entering the TWW? Due AF 7th Jan but will probably end up testing a couple days before 😄

BFN here too! No sign of AF but my bbt has gone down so I’m no longer hopeful. Roll on next cycle

Downtherabbithole83 · 06/01/2023 17:20

Sorry @30mummy and @MrsL22 that you also got BFNs today.

As soon as I’d taken the test, I wished I hadn’t. Much preferred yesterday when I just didn’t worry about it.

Hopefully we see some BFPs tomorrow. Am I right in thinking there have been two BFPs on here in totally so far? I lost track…

Downtherabbithole83 · 06/01/2023 17:18

Let us know what the test says when you do it later @Pitstop1986 - I’ve heard that opks can also give high results if you’re pregnant so keep that in mind!

Sorry that both you and @cdn298 are having so much stopping and starting AF-wise. I bet you don’t know if you’re coming or going… still no hint of AF for me (not due until Sunday anyway) but the back cramps continue. My last period was pretty light after my tfmr (much lighter than I expected) so I think this one might be hideous to make up for it!

Pitstop1986 · 06/01/2023 16:08

@Downtherabbithole83 I have a clearblue ovulation tester so I'll do that plus a Pg test. I'm going to try to hold my urine for 4 hours so that I get a decent concentration.

@cdn298 you sound as confused as I am!

I have had no more actual red blood since I said yesterday just a bit of brownish spotting a couple of times today when I have wiped and that's it.

Driving me absolutely mad now. Just want Af to hurry up now x

@Pitstop1986 During my last pregnancy I had a lot more CM in the days before my BFP but it was fairly constant.

Do you have any LH tests you could use?

Pitstop1986 · 06/01/2023 14:56

This cycle is driving me mad!

Still no more bleeding, but just went to the loo and there was a big glob of cm very similar to EWCM but a bit thicker when I wiped. Obviously played about with it because I'm weird like that (probably lead me to me job as a nurse!) and it was stretchy between my fingers. Not sure I've ever had that before on CD 30!

I might just dehydrate myself a bit and hold my urine for a few hours to get it concentrated and then take another pregnancy test.

If it's negative, I'll DTD with DH incase I've had some freak late ovulation!

MrsL22 · 06/01/2023 11:12

I really thought it would be our month. Maybe we are all in sync and it’ll be next month!

Pitstop1986 · 06/01/2023 09:28

And @MrsL22 sorry, I missed you out! Sending hugs to you too

Pitstop1986 · 06/01/2023 09:25

@Downtherabbithole83 @30mummy so sorry that you didn't get a positive this morning. I'm still in the mindset that it isn't over until AF arrives!

@cdn298 that's a real shame. I've been rooting for everyone this month. I thought that it would be out month! At least it's come early to save you the frustration of those last two days.

Sending hugs for everyone xxx

Pitstop1986 · 06/01/2023 09:20

Maybe it's not hormones and just the magic of Disney?! 😄 It was Frozen 2. My daughter only watches Encanto or Moana (we put it on to keep her entertained whilst I cook dinner/if she has a meltdown) and I need a bit more variety than just them 2 films, so been putting Frozen on in the background when she plays to try to wean her into it... It's not worked so far, she still refuses to sit and watch it! 😭

Still no bleeding for me, but I purposely got up at 5am to pee so that my fmu was gone and I wasn't tempted to test. I don't think a 25miu test would pick anything up if I was pregnant, but I still suspect AF will arrive and I don't want to go wasting tests. If AF is late, then I'll use one!

Ordering some ICs for next month so that I can POAS to my heart's content!

MrsSprouse · 06/01/2023 09:08

Sorry about the BFNs and AF guys, hopefully things change the next few days

@Pitstop1986 was it Frozen 1 or 2? 2 always gets me, I'm a sobbing mess by the end of it LOL

MrsL22 · 06/01/2023 06:52

BFN here too 👎🏼 I’m actually shocked!
Guess we all buckle down and wait for AF and try again next month x

30mummy · 06/01/2023 06:23

Another BFN here too.. (12dpo)

Baby dust to all x

Downtherabbithole83 · 06/01/2023 06:05

Aaaaaand it’s another BFN today.

No more testing for me this cycle - hoping AF hurried up and comes so we can start trying again…

Downtherabbithole83 · 05/01/2023 22:47

Really sorry to hear that @cdn298

🤞 for next month xx

Good luck to tomorrows testers!

MrsL22 · 05/01/2023 22:09

😂😂😂 well fingers crossed for tomorrow @everyone 🤞🏼

Downtherabbithole83 · 05/01/2023 22:07

100% - makes me feel like I’m doing something constructive and takes less effort than actually dtd! 😂

The need will wear off after a few cycles…

MrsL22 · 05/01/2023 22:05

😂😂 hello my name is @Downtherabbithole83 and I’m a POAS addict!

Downtherabbithole83 · 05/01/2023 22:03

As long as I’ve got a stick to pee on… I’ll be okay! 😂

MrsL22 · 05/01/2023 22:02

@Downtherabbithole83 😂😂😂 we will be experts soon enough

MrsL22 · 05/01/2023 22:02

I’ll be here until the last of us gets the news we want 🥰

Downtherabbithole83 · 05/01/2023 22:01

We can share pictures of opks instead of BFNs.

That’ll keep us all busy…
