Anyone around 11dpo?

Hello, I'm about 11-12dpo/CD24 as I seem to have ovulated early this month!

Had a MC in November after a year of trying, now been ttc again the past 2 cycles. I'm having lots of symptoms but had similar last month and it was just af. Anyone around the same DPO and testing soon/want to symptom spot together? Grin

Would be good to have someone to talk to instead of driving myself crazy in my own head!

@JoRobyn hello, welcome!! How are you getting on? Any symptoms so far?

I've had some creamy white CM today, never had this before so hoping it's a good sign but fed up getting my hopes up every month lol

@BoyMamaChloe so sorry! I don't know how I missed this.

Definitely a good sign to not have had any negative symptoms so to speak, hoping it stays that way 🤞 so unfair that the worrying and waiting doesn't even stop once you're actually pregnant! Hope you're doing okay xx

Had some more weird discharge today , but put it on another thread so I could put a warning in the title. Didn't want anyone to click on this and not be expecting it Grin

TMI picture - is this implantation discharge? www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/4750772-tmi-picture-is-this-implantation-discharge

It was quite sticky and a yellow colour with a pink tinge, very weird!

@youreonyourownkid thank you! I'm just over 6 weeks so still early. Should be about 8 weeks by the next scan, so fingers crossed. I've had the same symptoms I had with my little boy, mainly exhaustion!! No sickness but a few waves of nausea and light headed spells, and sore boobs. At the moment it's still positive because I've had no pain or bleeding, I just wish I hadn't booked the early private scan - just not worth the stress!
How are you doing?

@Happydappy12 I think if the test line is the same or darker than the control then it's a positive but then it says ovulation can still be like 12-48 hours after a positive so I don't really understand them either lol.

Yeah I'm trying to get a bit healthier and fitter too, just to try feel better about myself! I saw a challenge that was to walk 100k in March so I'm going to try that I think - something nice and simple to get myself moving more and hopefully the weather will be a bit nicer too which will make it more enjoyable to be outside more often too!

@youreonyourownkid oh no! So sorry to hear about the scarlet fever that sounds awful! Glad you are over the worst of it!!
I also did one OPK during my fertile week it was about 2-3 days before my predicted ovulation and there was quite a strong line but I’m not very good at those and don’t use them often enough to know a full positive or not!

Your symptoms sound promising!! Especially the little bit of spotting and your doggy being extra clingy!! Deffo good symptoms!! I haven’t really been trying to notice any however I did notice last night I had a really sharp pain in my ovaries on the one side for about 10/15 mins so sore that I couldn’t move I had to curl up! I’m not sure if this is anything though I’m trying to just avoid thinking about it and hope for the best but it is hard lol. I’m also trying to loose a little weight so I’m hopeful by this time next month I’m feeling better about myself all around and then I will start tracking etc properly!!

@BoyMamaChloe oh that does sound stressful, keeping everything crossed for you! How many weeks are you now? I've read it can take a while for it all to look like it should so defo try not to worry (easier said than done though)! Have you had many pregnancy symptoms?

OP posts:
BoyMamaChloe · 23/02/2023 17:28

@youreonyourownkid doing well thanks but it's been a bit stressful! Went for a scan and they can see a sac but no fetal pole yet. Had another scan this morning and the sac has grown but still no baby yet. They're not worried as apparently with the size of the sac it's still very early and too small to expect to see anything else. So it's slightly torturous but I've had no negative symptoms yet so trying to stay positive. Another 10 days to wait for the next scan where hopefully we will see our little baby with a healthy little heartbeat ❤️

@Happydappy12 hello, I totally get you! I tried to be much more relaxed with it this month as well lol, it's exhausting. I only did 1 OPK during my predicted fertile week which ended up positive but I put the rest away as I've been known to do too many a day 😂 I also have only 1 FRER left and they're so expensive so determined to wait as long as I can before I use it - will see how long that lasts!

I'm doing okay, I've just gotten over scarlet fever 😂 (the joys of working with children!) so haven't had much energy for trying this month either but we'll see 🤞 I've had some slight cramps and almost a burning sensation at one point, sensitive boobs and yesterday there was some brown spotting when I wiped then there was some red today but trying not to dwell on it too much. My dog was super clingy to me yesterday which was so weird - he usually loves DH so much more and doesn't leave his side lol and I cried watching a tiktok video the other night as well even though I'm not a crier! I think it's just probably the overwhelm of ttc though lol.

Have you noticed any symptoms or just trying to keep your mind off it for now? xxx

@youreonyourownkid hello! Honestly this month I gave up with tracking. I get obsessive every month and then let down and it’s taking a huge toll on my mental health! I’m pretty sure I missed my O day too based on my app which would have been last week Friday as we’ve just been super busy etc! Still hopeful for a miracle haha! How are you? Any symptoms as of yet?? Wishing baby dust!!!

Helloooo, I'm back for this month 😂 currently 6dpo, anyone in their 2WW and want to keep each other company?

@BoyMamaChloe hope all is going well with your pregnancy 💕

@Happydappy12 @anon1411 @Chip131 how are you all doing?

OP posts:
Chip131 · 09/02/2023 10:02

Bit of back and rib pain.. Its too late for a positive now surely? Xx

BoyMamaChloe · 09/02/2023 08:10

@Chip131 that's so odd! Your positive may still be on its way... do you feel any of your usual AF symptoms or feel any different?x

Chip131 · 09/02/2023 07:35

Still no period, still negative tests. Im gutted :(

anon1411 · 08/02/2023 14:54

Yeah so the past 3 months have all been 26 days, I have had 28 day cycles in the past but never longer than that. So it ranges from 26 to 28 day cycles. I don't track ovulation religiously so I'm not sure when I ovulated but I have an app that works out the fertile week and possible Ov day.

I always have a heavy feeling in my stomach before AF arrives and I'm usually ravenous and really emotional (both moody and upset 🤣) and if anything I've been the complete opposite to that...

I'm going to pick up a FRER at some point and test at the weekend maybe, as if I'm honest I don't trust ClearBlues but they had no others 🤦🏼‍♀️

@anon1411 that is strange! Do you know when you ovulated? Maybe you just ovulated later than you think and having a longer literal phase this time? xx

OP posts:
BoyMamaChloe · 08/02/2023 07:27

@anon1411 how strange! Are your cycles usually pretty regular? Perhaps try testing with a frer if you haven't already...

Chip131 · 08/02/2023 07:26

I havent taken a test for a few days as im scared im going to get disappointed again😂 xxx

anon1411 · 08/02/2023 06:49

I'm 3 days late now and nothing has come from this. I don't feel like AF is coming at all though, not having any typical AF symptoms. I'm still having alot of CM, a few times I've had to check that AF hasn't come because its felt like I've leaked and its actually just been CM.

Had a bit of backache, nothing painful just uncomfortable more than anything and been going to the toilet alot more but thats it. I took a random ClearBlue a few days ago and BFN but it wasn't with FMU and randomly in the day. I just don't feel AF is coming. 🤷‍♀️

BoyMamaChloe · 08/02/2023 06:38

That's good! If it was brown then it could be old blood from implantation, rather than fresh. Have you taken a test now that you're late?xx

Chip131 · 07/02/2023 20:34

Still no af😅

Chip131 · 06/02/2023 13:13

Thats good news! I know- Its such a worry!
Would i implant this late though? Starting to think i ovulated later than i thought xxx

BoyMamaChloe · 06/02/2023 11:33

That's a good sign! Always possible it was a bit of implantation bleeding or some old blood. Fingers crossed for you! I had a stronger test today but I'm driving myself mad with worry today and doubting it all 😫 xx

Chip131 · 06/02/2023 11:00

youreonyourownkid · 05/02/2023 21:49

AF arrived for me this morning unfortunately Sad

So sorry that this has not been your month✨
