TTC Feb 2023

Definitely! It doesn’t feel real right now as apart from a few symptoms I don’t really feel anything! I did another pregnancy test today just to make sure 😂

Also, I am potentially going mad. Looking for guidance, thoughts, self control, dignity all of the above 🤣

I am 7dpo and tested today with a Amazon cheapie. Pretty sure it is a BFN but have gone mad on the line eyes and also inverted it like a real delusional animal and here we are.

thoughts??? Is it just me? Pics here, inverted and normal. I can’t actually see anything in the normal pic but in person it’s like the tiniest shadow of nothingness…

@Tryingtobe123 how exciting!! I bet you can’t wait to see the scan with your own eyes. Will feel much more real for you then!

@Tryingtobe123 for comparison this was
ny last pregnancy at around 12 DPO or so

@Tryingtobe123 yeah but I could even see your realt faint lines! Mine is in my head I think!!!

@Caths456 mine started off so so faint! So don’t be disheartened!

@smldnlove good so far 🤞🏼 just have the odd bit of nausea every now and then and my boobs are ginormous (other half obviously pointed that one out didn’t he) and really really tired so napping in the day now!

Got one booked for 5th May so I should be around 9 weeks then! Time goes so slowly though

I’ve had a lot of cramping 8/9 DPO and thought maybe it’s implantation, also had horrendous headaches on those two days, but have a feeling it was PMS. We used the pull out on my ovulation day and day after. So it’s not like we’ve an amazing chance!

@Caths456 i can’t see anything just yet but don’t lose hope! AF hasn’t arrived so I’d wait and see how things go up to the 14th? Do you have any symptoms?

@Tryingtobe123 how is pregnancy going so far? Do you have any scans booked in?

@Wright31 @Strawb28 hello!! Hope you’re doing well. How have you all been over bank holiday? I guess just waiting for the next cycle? I’m CD26 and 6DPO and yet again convinced myself it could be despite only really DTD once around ovulation 🤣🤣🤣 it’s a rollercoaster!

I’m just imaging it I think. Oh well.

There’s probably nothing there, I think around 11dpo but not due my period til the 14th so? It’s defo a real squinter in person so I’d presume negative?

@Caths456 i cant see anything on that pic have you got one in better lighting? How many DPO are you?

Sorry pic attached

It’s an indent isn’t it??

unfortunately i think AF has just arrived! really gutted! very light but pretty sure it’s start of AF rather than implantation bleeding. also gutted as me and husband won’t be in same country for fertile week so missing next month unfortunately! will be on to month 6 after that which i know is still nothing but quite disappointing!

the positive to take from all of this is my luteal phase has extended from 8/9 days to 10/11 days so that’s really hopeful!

how you getting on?

How is it going @Wright31 ?! Did you test again? X

@Wright31 Oh my goodness!!!! This is so exciting! Please try and attach. Click add image and then attach and then you also need to scroll down to attach again once it’s uploaded… if that helps?

EVERYTHING crossed for you!!! 11dpo is a great time to test so seems promising! Can you do another?

ahhh it won’t let me upload picture!

hey all, so i’m 11dpo and i’ve very rarely ever got to this stage because of my short LP, i took a First Response there and i can see a line….. but i am pretty sure it’s an indent? i just don’t know..! will attach a picture.

my temperature is still somewhat high and I haven’t had any symptoms i usually get with period arriving by this stage, and i was due on yesterday. What do you think?? it’s so so so faint i just don’t know

@smldnlove 5 weeks now! He really really is haha I keep forgetting I’m pregnant 🤯

@Wright31 Oh that’s great news!! So please your LP is now longer and heading in the right direction! Are you having any symptoms or anything? Sending you all the prayers!!

@Tryingtobe123 How far along are you now? Yes toddler must be a big distraction for you which is nice, hopefully you don’t get any more symptoms and can have a relatively normal 1st trimester! Fingers crossed!!

@smldnlove okay actually (so far!) definitely harder with having a toddler to run around after so I’m just really tired and REALLT hungry. Been feeling a bit nauseous but nothing major

oooo we love to hear it!! 🤍 keep us posted, it might be the one!

I’m actually due on my period today but nothing has come, but had a negative test this morning so i’m pretty sure AF is coming, but the good news is that my luteal phase is already slightly longer than the last cycle so maybe the vitamins are working! Will do another test tomorrow and keep you posted!

How is everyone getting on? Ended up DTD again two days ago and got a positive OPKs today so the “pausing till after wedding” has gone TERRIBLY lol. It was only once though so we’ll see!!

Any updates from anyone? @Wright31 @Tryingtobe123 @Strawb28 ?

@Tryingtobe123 how are the early stages going? X

Another 24 day cycle 😢😢 I think I'm going to give losing weight a go for a couple of months before trying again. My BMI is quite high which I'm sure if affecting my luteal phase!

Hope this month goes well for you x

@Wright31 Ahhhh glad you are trying and seeing what happens! Still could very easily happen for you this month! Have you had any more symptoms this last day or so?

we’re doing well! Still unsure whether to try this month but we did have a go a few days ago on my CD12 but I usually don’t ovulate till around CD16. I’m just a bit confused by my ovulation atm though as I’m using this time to track like max but it seems as though my LH is decreasing before I’ve even ovulated and my peak was 0.48. Have you had this before? Attaching pic for info. Will do another later and rest my ewcm too as I feel like that acrually works better for me atm.

@Strawb28 any update on this cramping? Have you done any more tests?
