TTC November baby

@Tophy124 yeah I know what you mean. It took us 3 cycles with DS but they were much longer so felt like forever to wait to get the BFP. I didn't ovulate until about CD 17/18 this time but AF showed up at day CD27/28. Not sure if my lp is long enough for implantation so going to keep an eye on my charts.

@SnookyPook good luck testing. Sending baby dust to you!

I went for my ultrasound today. It was horrible 😓but I just laid there keeping focused on thinking this will help me ttc. I'm properly scared something will be wrong in there but I won't find out til next Thursday now.

@AlleycatMarie I'm going to keep testing just so I know for sure. I don't know how these tests work really, if we just go back to empty circles?

@Tophy124 ooh that’s interesting!!! I’m going to see if I can find some more experiences like this! Sorry AF arrived 😢 I’m sure I’ll see you in the ttc December group!
@SaltedChoco i don’t temp - did try it one month but tbh I kept forgetting to do it before I got out of bed. I might try again though. I have an appointment with the fertility clinic next month and wonder if they will ask me to do this. Just done another test and still flashing- why am I tormenting myself like this??!

@Tophy124 thanks, I really hope so. My head is scrambled! Sorry to hear af showed up 😘

@Bridgeth29 I think this all sounds positive!

So, I don’t want to get anyones hopes up, but a close friend just had non stop flashing smileys and it’s because she was very early pregnant!

@AlleycatMarie thank you! Yeah so so frustrating. I feel exactly the same I don’t know what’s going on. Good point about not going back to empty circles. Are you temping too? I don’t even understand my temps 🙈 the damn flashing smiley is so annoying

Hi ladies, I hope you dont mind me hopping on. We've just decided to start trying for our first baby together (my second). Last pregnancy was a surprise and it was many years ago, so this all feels new to me.
Have long irregular cycles, not sure what to expect. I've ordered some ovulation tests to try to get a better understanding of my cycle.
Sending you all my best wishes ❤

I'm 19 months TTC, 36, first baby. Been referred for ivf,15 month wait. This month the doctor could see I had ovulated from a vaginal scan. Just had a blood test to see if there's any progesterone serum. This entire process is hell

I'm so confused I took a frer early this morning (11dpo) and it was still super light, no progression, so I was convinced I'm having a chemical. Cried a lot this morning. I then got a clear blue test while out and took it, not realising the sensitivity is 25 and it's slightly positive. Can't upload the pic, it says it's too big.

@SaltedChoco sorry, I just saw your post above mine. This is so frustrating! Are you going to keep testing?

@seeyouinanotherlifewhenwearebothcats i love your name!
It’s so frustrating isn’t it?! I thought I understood my cycles and then the more I test the more confused I get. What I don’t understand is, if the clear blue has missed my ovulation, why has it not gone back to empty circles? My cycles are 26-28 days, so even if I got a static now I don’t think I would be in with a chance.
@SaltedChoco any luck today?
I tested with fmu and it’s still bloody flashing at me!!!!

Cd19, 7th day flashing. Arghhhhh

@Mummyme87 oh that will be beautiful! I went to a September wedding on Mykonos a few years ago. And it was wonderful!

everything crossed @SnookyPook for a BFP!!
my two month break was because my sister is getting married in Rhodes in October so obviously needed to ensure I wasn’t anywhere between 36weeks pregnant and 2weeks postnatal at that time!

@Mummyme87 glad your break has helped you. We're due AF at same time so will be able to support through the next cycle if it's a bfn this time. Xx

Congrats @TinyPuds I had a mmc end of nov/early and on my second cycle post mmc. Had really sore boobs/nipples for the last few days which was my biggest sign last time, haven’t tested as I don’t want to get into obsessive testing but period is due Tuesday so just waiting it out 😬

@SnookyPook i also get a bit of relief when AF turns up. That TWW is torture and the last couple of days when I don’t feel pregnant is a struggle, once AF comes I always have a good cry but think fresh cycle fresh start. As hard as that is.

AF due on Monday, can’t wait to restart TTC. Albeit it’s like cycle 20 now I do this the two month break has helped me psychologically

Morning ☀️
Had some spotting this morning - CD19 and at the exact same time as last month which just makes me think we're out again this month! 😩

@AlleycatMarie @SaltedChoco I’m exactly the same! Im on day 6 of a flashing smiley and CD18. I usually had 29 day cycles but since starting TTC again I’ve had a 31 day cycle and a 26 day cycle?! Now my temps seem to indicate I ovulated way earlier?! But I’ve not had a peak on clear blue. I’m just at such a loss now. I understand my cycles less than ever

@hopeandpray1988 welcome and good luck with cycle 3! I'm due to test on Sun/Mon if AF doesn't make an appearance. Have been majorly symptom spotting this TWW but in reality I've not have some of the main symptoms I had with DS (tender heavy boobs) so I'm doubting it a bit. We'll see.

@Tophy124 sorry AF has reared her head. Hope you're ok. I always feel a weird bit of relief when my period actually starts - I think it's just that moment of clarity? And then renewed hope for the new cycle. It just goes on and on though doesn't it?!

How is the line looking this morning @TinyPuds hope its a sticky one!

@Maxime34 sorry to hear of your losses and have everything crossed for you that this is your year! Xxxx

Thanks ladies @TinyPuds @Floralsandsmiles I know realistically the more you dtd at the right time the more your chances are but it definitely is tiring after a while!@Superstorefan123 sorry to hear of your losses. The same thing has happened to me with three early losses last year. Never had any issues at all before trying for #2 fingers crossed this year is our year 🤞🏻

@hopeandpray1988 AF has shown up for me too! Also feeling like it’s going to be much harder ttc baby 2. I’m so sensitive to the posts of anyone who got pregnant their first cycle.
