Hi ladies,

who wants to join for the tww? I had peak fertility on 25/02/23. So I think I may have ovulated 26/02/23.

now in the tww.

who wants to join?

I’m TTC#2, month 8 of TTC this time. 16 months TTC #1.

I can’t say I’m feeling particularly hopeful. I’m used to the disappointment (again), sadly.

@Floralsandsmiles @Freya8 I'm also still in the same boat as you guys, no definite answer yet! 14dpo so AF is officially due tomorrow and I will test tomorrow morning too. I still have the spotting but weirdly not a drop all day and then it comes on around 6pm and tiny bit in the morning, what could that be about?!

@Floralsandsmiles what supplements did you start as I have heard they can change things for people the first cycle. Pregnacare conception made mine crazy literally spotted from ovulation but now I'm on seven seas and seems normal again.

This is exactly the same as me @Piglet34 !! What the hell!! Tiny pink spots in the morning and then the evening? Only when I wipe, nothing the rest of the day?

So I'm taking:

Folic acid
Vitamin D
Magnesium/calcium/zinc
DHA
Coq10
Iron

Could this have mucked the cycle up? Xxx

@Floralsandsmiles just sad 😔 then it opens up another can of worms as in jeez at the age of 37 now am i too old for this xxxx

No! You aren't too old! you're just feeling disappointed and in self protection mode. We all have days like this and it's healthy as its our bodies way of protecting us. Take a day for self care hun and be sad, then wake up fighting to hit it harder next time. Sending you hugs xxx

@Floralsandsmiles took an easy at home n neg this morn. I mean i think ppl swear by these tests? Not even a squinter. Boobs incredibly itchy last night read that can mean af coming. Loads of white cm too. Jus feel theres no point in me testin at 14dpo as anyone would get some sort of line. Jus want my period so i can be done with this shite xxxx

I agree hun, I whole heartedly agree! I mean the white CM is good though no? It's so confusing! Xxx

@Floralsandsmiles and @Piglet34 any updates? Xxxx

Morning @Freya8 ! So I've taken a FRER as it's doing my head in that I'm still spotting on and off and no AF. And it's a BFN. So where the hell is my AF!! I have always been so regular! Starting to think that the only change has been the supplements and maybe they have sent my body nuts??
How are you?? Any updates? Xxx

Think im gonna man up and just accept i am out and try and mentally prep myself for next cycle. Im jus wish af would show then so i can get this over an done with xx

I conquer @Freya8 . So glad I have you girls to talk to. No idea what's going on! I just I'm out as I'm 14DPO and no AF and BFN. So it's a waiting game to get this awful cycle out of the way! Sorry to hear that @Piglet34 and @Freya8 , you are both in same boat too! Xxx

@TTC53 thanks babes i know 😘 lit is wat i would be advising any of you. Sorry i lit jus feel like crying my eyes out this morn. I think im annoyed at myself for believing that it would just go like the first time. Need to jus chill out an accept i need to wait on this xxx

Sorry to hear this @Freya8 . I really feel for you, as I'm the same. I'm sorry! Xxxx

Piglet34 · 15/03/2023 08:58

@TTC53 sorry to hear your AF showed! :( really hope you get your bfp this next cycle xx

@Freya8 I am in the exact same boat with all the uncertainty so I feel you it is really hard! I know what you mean about feeling like there can't be a chance after 12/13dpo but you never know 100% until AF shows, although I'm also trying to just prepare myself mentally that AF probably will be coming. If you are just off the pill then that does usually have an affect for a month or two while your body gets used to it so could be the reason for weird symptoms. I'm not testing again now until Friday when AF is due. I would wait until Saturday which would technically be a day late for AF but my DH is away for 10 days from Friday eve 😞 really hope I can get answers before then!

TTC53 · 15/03/2023 08:33

Morning @Freya8. Sorry that it's all so uncertain for you right now. It's not what you want to hear but there's really nothing you can do but just wait it out and see how your cycle develops. I think it's more likely to have had a BFP by 12dpo but it's certainly not uncommon to have one after it too. Try waiting another 48 hours and testing again if AF hasn't arrived.

Freya8 · 15/03/2023 06:29

Morning girls how are u all? So i got those wee easy at home tests delivered done one this morn at 13 dpo and bfn. No clue wats goin on in my body here as crampin like mad yest and boob twinges and zaps and underarm pain. Its so strange its like im clingin onto zero hope. Feel so bloody emotionally drained. Sorry jus brain dumpin all the shite wizzin round in my head here. Yeh i mean im officially just baffled n then i go an read that yeh if u get a neg pretty much at 12dpo or above then consider that accurate and that your out 😪 unless stoppin the pills jus messed me up an that was a false lh surge on the static smiley. Sorry again for the mumbles xxx

Lilothblos · 14/03/2023 21:30
