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 😄

@CLowers ahh really? I'm going to test the end of this week and see.. so scared of another chemical so just making sure. Hope you have a happy and healthy pregnancy!

CLowers · 05/03/2023 19:52

@30mummy my lines were like yours and I’m now 7w3d 🤞🏼

30mummy · 05/03/2023 17:53

Thank you! Really hoping this one is a sticky bean, I had a chemical last month but never had dark lines like that!
Good luck to you all.. hope this tww goes very quick for you x

SMG1992 · 05/03/2023 17:49

@30mummy congratulations! Lovely line progression!
I’m still just about in peak today so will be 1dpo tomorrow and the TWW will begin! Fingers crossed for everyone! X

Aww thank you @Downtherabbithole83. How are you all doing? I know were all on different cycles.

Downtherabbithole83 · 01/03/2023 15:16

@30mummy I can definitely see a line - I’ve got everything crossed for you!

30mummy · 01/03/2023 12:23

aww thank you @Pitstop1986 & @cdn298. Hope its a sticky one this time! I swore i wasn't going to test early again but we are trying for our first and if I keep having chemicals I wanted to let a doctor know (Not sure if it's something they could help with) I am only testing on Friday to give it 48 hours so I will let you know the results! x

cdn298 · 01/03/2023 12:19

I see a line!

I'm currently cd 8 and due to ovulate mid/late next week I think. AF finally arrived about 2 weeks late for me after what seemed like an eternity!

I've cut gluten out of my diet to see if that helps any. We have a lot of coeliacs/wheat intolerance in our family, so I've stopped eating it just incase I'm intolerant and it's causing harm, I want to give myself the best chances. I've also upped my intake of healthy fats- avocados, nuts, etc and been getting much more than my 5 a day!

Downtherabbithole83 · 28/02/2023 17:19

Oh that’s lovely to know @DancingNancies ! I’ll keep my fingers crossed xx

DancingNancies · 28/02/2023 15:53

@Downtherabbithole83 i only did once last cycle too and I'm currently 6 weeks pregnant - the cycle before we tried loads (DH didn't know what hit him!) and we ended up with a chemical...just has to be that once at the right time - and I do think feeling relaxed helps! Wishing you luck!

Downtherabbithole83 · 28/02/2023 12:30

Hey @Mrsrobinsonx - how are you feeling?

Mrsrobinsonx · 28/02/2023 06:42

@Downtherabbithole83 hey! I’ve just gone into the tww for this cycle, x

Downtherabbithole83 · 28/02/2023 06:01

How’s everyone doing? I’m back in the tww wait again… not hopeful this time as only dtd once in the window because of feeling unwell but as a result I’m way more chilled which is kinda nice.

Hope you’re all okay at whatever stage of the journey each of you is at xx

Downtherabbithole83 · 18/02/2023 21:47

Glad to hear you’re managing to relax @Pitstop1986 - I baked earlier in the week and have been making the most of the available cake this evening!

@SimplyChic afraid I’ve no experience of that one. Weird that there is nothing about it online… (isn’t everything available via Google?! Even if it’s not the truth 😂)

I’m doing okay - though AF had ended but it’s reappeared tonight (much to my other half’s annoyance 😂) so waiting to start the opks again… I bought a massive pack so I can POAS as much as I want. I’ve not bought any early pregnancy cheapies this time though. Determined not to test unless AF doesn’t arrive this month… we shall see how that goes.

SimplyChic · 18/02/2023 20:47

@Downtherabbithole83 hello, nice to hear from you! How are you also?

Bleeding is slightly heavier today, although not much if I'm honest - it's definitely lighter than my usual flow. But I'm just glad something is occurring now regardardless of that.

About 1.5 weeks ago, I began taking myo-inositol for my irregular cycles, so I'm unsure if this has had an effect.

I also don't know if I'm meant to stop it in advance before the fertilty blood test, as they are testing for glucose etc, as I'm unsure if it will effect results and I can't find anything on the internet for it 😫

Pitstop1986 · 18/02/2023 20:10

Still no AF but negative pregnancy test, so I'm relaxing watching a film with a glass of wine. Got some cookies in the oven to munch on and I'm just going to relax

Downtherabbithole83 · 18/02/2023 20:04

@SimplyChic and @Pitstop1986 - how are you both doing today? Any changes?

Pitstop1986 · 18/02/2023 08:56

I was going to do a pg test this morning, just incase DHs sperms managed to stay alive inside me for 8 days... Completely forgot! I'd even drunk a large glass of water and a cup of tea in quick succession before I realised, so I can't even do a hold right now as my urine is going to be so diluted!

Going from when I got ewcm, I'm due AF either today or tomorrow, I guess I'll just have to wait around the extra day for AF. (Or dehydrate myself and test tonight)

DancingNancies · 17/02/2023 19:52

@SimplyChic my AF always starts like that, on and off for a day or two before coming in full force so I hope you get an answer soon.

@Downtherabbithole83 1st pregnancy, I rang the dr and they sorted the booking appt, midwife came to my house, took bloods/bmi/family history. 2nd pregnancy they made me make an appt at the surgery, then the same as you - said congrats but then told me to make a booking appt at reception so again through the surgery, midwife to my house etc etc.

The receptionist spoke to my like I should know what to do this time, and I was a fool for ringing them to book - it's only been 6 years since my 1st time and 3 since my 2nd and it's changed SO much, madness!

Downtherabbithole83 · 17/02/2023 18:38

@Pitstop1986 just a thought but have you started taking or changed any vitamins lately? I know that some people find some of the pre-conception vitamins can affect your cycle. I’m really sorry that you are still in limbo.

@SimplyChic the AF before last, I had 48 hours of that kind of bleeding - kept logging that my period had started on my app and then having to take it off again. It did eventually come properly so I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you 🤞

@DancingNancies my doctors made me an appt with my last pregnancy (it was a telephone call) and then during that call they basically said congratulations and told me to self-refer. Then during my first midwife appt I had to give the history of my last two pregnancies (including my sections, one of which was an emergency) because I’d moved counties and apparently they couldn’t see my hospital records?! It’s all a bit odd…
