January Testers (TTC September/October🎃🍂)

Sorry I struggle to keep up with these messages
How is everyone? Any bfps yet?
When are people planning to test?
My app tells me to test in 1 week I'm hoping I can hold outt lol

@kinkin0518 I think you and your OH deserve a medal for your dedication to the cause 🏅

@kinkin0518 sounds like you've given yourselves a fighting chance 🤞🏼🙏🏼

We have DTD for the past 5 days, tonight will be the 6th. I got a positive ovulation test Wednesday morning, I tested again Thursday morning and it was negative. Hopefully I ovulated yesterday. We have been DTD at night, hopefully that is ok (fingers crossed).

It's my 8th month so it's getting harder each month! I agree it does take the fun out, I'm ok after ovulation because I get excited to wait for the symptoms lol but never happens

I feel like the wait from AF to ovulation week is hard enough, nevermind the TWW😅 only month 2 for us but feel like the fun has been taken out of DTD already…does anyone else feel the same?

My Af is almost away, this is our first month trying I am too excited so I used a ovulation test this morning lol! Just wanted to see what it is like. I use the flo app and I'm pretty regular, so it will be interesting to see if the tests match up with the app will be testing for ovulation every day now just to know where I am

Flo app says it's my ovulation day today, we've only managed to DTD twice this week Monday and last night so I'm hoping that's enough but this morning it woke me up about half 5 to cramps I know it's way too early but it's unusual for me around ovulation. Unless I ovulated early but I'm due AF 20th so TTW for me. Fingers crossed for us all

Got a static smiley yesterday on clearblue ovulation test.
OH is really not well with flu etc… we hadn’t DTD since 25/12 due to my HSG and he’s been poorly since.
He managed enough energy to DTD last night so I didn’t take any chances and popped my Ferti-lily in for the first time.
Definitely had no leakage, as they say “it only takes one swimmer” so hoping it’s enough but not going to get my hopes built up too much and just wait until next cycle when he’s feeling better.

It gets a bit much doesnt it! We decided to go for every other day this month. I really don’t want to test early after chemical last month but I know I’ll do it anyway. Sucker for punishment!

I had really bad cramps last night- don’t know if it was ovulation or wind though 🤣

Today is apparently ovulation day according to my Clue app so I guess it's the TWW for me, for cycle 3! Will DTD next few days just in case... it's been every night for 7 nights running 🤣 due AF on 19th Jan, will start testing on the 15th I think.

With this being the 3 month mark, if unsuccessful this month I can feel this being the tipping point into starting to stress, and worry it might not happen. Logically or not. 3 months seems reasonable, longer than that seems more nerve inducing to me. Fingers crossed all.

@PrimarilyParented that’s really interesting, thank you!

I’ve been having EWCM for a week now which isn’t like me at all 🤔 We have DTD for the last 5 nights in a row 😰 not sure we will tonight but Flo predicts ovulation was yesterday. I’ve got a gut feeling it was earlier and I don’t know why?! But last night I did have a horrible stitch like pain on my right side which has continued into this morning. We will probably continue every other day for a few more days incase ovulation is late… AF not due till 19th… I can’t take these two week waits!!!! 😩🤣

@ttcat37 oh yes how exciting. Got fingers crossed for us all. We dtd lastnight and the night before. Not sure I can push for tonight too 😆😆😆
Going to promise myself not to test early!

@ttcat37 how are you feeling? :)

@ELJ1502 @Knov20 can I be TWW buddies with you guys? I peaked yesterday 🙂

@2021lady that sounds quite promising, it's such an agonising wait isn't it! Like others have said on precious threads why can't we know straight away and not have the awful wait where we practically put our life on hold and think of nothing else!

Because I had a subchorionic hematoma with my last pregnancy and unfortunately miscarried, I've been googling everything to do with that too and joined a couple of groups on fb. I'm an avid gym goer and during the tww for the past 2 months I've not gone because I'm scared it will have an affect on implantation. It's controlling my life and as much as I hate it I'd hate it even more if I'd carried on and got pregnant resulting in another sch even if it weren't related i would find blame. We don't half go through it as women!

@Knov20 fingers crossed for both of us and that it’s not too painful of a wait

@ELJ1502 we will be TWW buddies 😁

I'm only like 5 or 6dpo so could do either way. I'll know hopefully soon anyway. Just feel so impatient lol

@ELJ1502 ooooh exciting, enjoy and good luck 🤞🏼

@2021lady how many dpo are you? Could maybe be implantation cramps.

@Lal33 I would say it's more than likely to be an OPK but you could always make sure and test with what you know is a pregnancy test.

Weird one here, and I'm probably being thick but there we go.

I've a drawer full of OPKs of different varieties and a couple of what I think are pregnancy tests, though the packaging doesn't say, in the bathroom.

I did what I thought was an OPK yesterday and it came up positive, as expected. But now I'm thinking, the OPKs are in a purple packet and say on the sleeve, these ones are in a pink packet and don't say on the sleeve.

I had AF over Christmas.

Is it possible that high LH can throw a false positive on a pregnancy test? Or is it more likely I've done an OPK as intended?

Picture of the offending confusing article attached.

Feel like I'm gonna start my period any minute even tho im not due on for 10 days. I hope femara hasn't messed up my cycle

Forgot to add: CD15 and natural cycles predicts ovulation on Saturday.

Positive LH test this morning, rising basal temp and feeling very crampy. 🤞🤞🤞
