Ahh congrats @Laul89 🥰😍 so lovely to see a BFP!

Roxxybabe · 23/01/2023 18:26

@Laul89 congrats hun! Try not to stress, 5 weeks puts you past the chemical pregnancy stage so that is really reassuring!! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months xxx

LotzW · 23/01/2023 18:02

@Laul89 Congratulations!

Hi everyone.. just a little update from me 🥺🥰😭❤️ Still doesn’t feel real and I’m so anxious but I’m around 5+1 today.

Thank you all so much for the support & advice, this thread has been invaluable and I wish you all the very best, sending lots and lots of baby dust your way ✨

@Yolo23 I sent you a private message yesterday but didn’t think you had got it 🤣❤️

I'm out for this month. 2 days early. Which feels like a result, can get started on Feb 2 days early 😂

Sb86 · 23/01/2023 14:24

@Ella31you're not out until af arrives, I didn't get a positive until I was 14dpo back in September and I'd tested on the 12th with a stark white BFN. Unfortunately I mc hence why I'm back here on a ttc thread 😔

Ella31 · 23/01/2023 10:54

Clutching at straws here. So i ovulated on the 12th my period is due on the 27th. I'm 11dpo as of today. Stark white Bfn's..am I out.....pretty much. Cycle 4 here after a miscarriage and losing hope

Sb86 · 23/01/2023 10:52

@LotzW just try and hold off a couple more days, it could have been implantation bleeding. So if that was the case in a couple of days there should be enough hcg in your system to show on a test.

Yolo23 · 23/01/2023 09:58

@33Carr i feel you! After the above comment, I can safely say AF is on its way… women’s bodies are just mental 🤣😅

TTCno1in23 · 23/01/2023 09:41

@kinkin0518 I’m not sure as I’ve not taken them sorry!

33Carr · 23/01/2023 09:32

AF arrived last night 😭 I'd convinced myself I was having stronger symptoms than the typical pre-period ones, Urgh. Another cycle it is then!

PeopleAreToads · 23/01/2023 09:15

@Roxxybabe I had a chemical last month too so expected I might ovulate a bit late this month as cycle days counted from the chemical bleed which was earlier than AF. But had a flashing smiley on an OPK this morning at CD7 which I don't normally get til about CD10.

So I'm thinking it's just slightly wonky cycles after chemicals

LotzW · 23/01/2023 08:57

@Sb86
11 dpo. I've had some spotting the last 3 days so think at is on the way. I did a frer so would have thought that would have picked up at this stage 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yolo23 · 23/01/2023 08:43

@Laul89 my update above.. hope you’re ok and I’m keeping my fingers crossed you’re just quiet to celebrate!?!? X

Yolo23 · 23/01/2023 08:42

Positive ovulation I should have said!

Yolo23 · 23/01/2023 08:42

Hey ladies! Very strange cycle for me.. I had a positive digital - so we know we DTD at the right times this month..

I had browny CM around 3/2 days before AF was due and then had some bleeding (not much at all) yesterday and day before AF - AF is due today but not a sign of anything just yet. I have endometriosis so my periods are normally horrendously painful the day of AF.. I thought it was coming early yest as I needed tablets - don’t know what is going on! I’m away right now so no tests 🤣😅 probably a good thing as AF will probably jump out at me later… but how very weird!

Sb86 · 23/01/2023 08:31

@LotzW how many dpo are you?

Sb86 · 23/01/2023 08:30

@Roxxybabe how odd 🤔 maybe dtd a few times over the next coming days just in case? It is possible the chemical could have messed with your cycle but if you bled the same time you would have done as af you'd have thought not. Hopefully someone else on this thread might have some better advice for you.

LotzW · 23/01/2023 07:35

BFN this morning 😔

kinkin0518 · 23/01/2023 00:38

TTCno1in23 · 22/01/2023 21:25

@kinkin0518 wow that’s so willpower!! How long are you aiming to wait before testing? X

I'm going to wait until I'm a week late. Have you experienced delays eith orenatals?

Roxxybabe · 23/01/2023 00:29

Hey ladies, so I’m CD25 and 9DPO (or so I thought). I usually have a 29 day cycle so would be due on this Friday, but I’ve just tested OPK (I test daily) and I got a v dark line (almost positive). I had a chemical last month so my last bleed wasn’t actually a proper period but a chemical bleed, could the chemical have messed up my cycle and am I gearing up to ovulate. I already had a positive OPK on CD15 and assumed I ovulated then, so I am a little confused. I have heard your LH can rise before AF so I guess it could just be that but I’m not due until FRiday, unless she decides to come early, I’ve also heard this can happen when you’re pregnant but I got a BFN on an IC. Only tested because of the high OPK!

Just adding pic of OPK

@ttcat37 for late reply...I'm trying a more relaxed approached this cycle. I've not bbtd at all and just going to dtd every other day. Not tracked ovulation either so I won't know how many dpo unless i feel it happen. I say more relaxed but I am eating differently, for health more than ttc although I've added walnuts, Brazil nuts and then a huge array of seeds and powders to add to smoothies that are apparently great for fertility. I'll try anything 🫠

How are you feeling?
