Hi 😊

First successful month of TTC #2, have tried since July 2022 but every month something has got in the way such as illness or the cheap ovulation tests have let me down.

Ordered the easy mom ovulation tests this month and no one was horrendously ill in our household so managed to DTD twice during the fertile window

CD12 - DTD
CD13 - Positive OPK
CD14 - DTD

Probably should of done a few more times but DP was busy.

Feeling really hopeful but also feel like I won't get pregnant any time soon 😩

How is everyone else?

Thanks @TunnocksTCake jumped out of bed and…BFN again. Disheartened but I guess early ant 9DPO and I do feel nauseated, but could be anything!

@MountainFi i know how you feel, just think it’s a no for me this time! I looked back and it was 10DPO I got my BFP with DC1 so still time…

Morning everyone,

& welcome @Ttcdcno1!

@Sleepinghippo I'm 10 DPO too and just had a BFN :( depends on the tests really, I was expecting a v faint line on the easy moms today. If I don't get one tomorrow I think I'm out 😔

@pinkthree I don't knooow! 9dpo today and missed my fmu so probably tomorrow at the earliest. I have had such bad sleep I haven't been able to do my BBT the last few days. Going out to dinner tonight so probably should have done it today really 🤣

@Sleepinghippo 10dpo is still early (depending on your luteal phase) so you're not out yet.

@Boymum111 can't wait for your test today!

Ttcdcno1 · 31/03/2023 07:23

Hey can I join? ☺️
7dpo today, I want to try and hold out as long as possible to test but not sure I’ll make it very far 😂AF due 6/4

Sleepinghippo · 31/03/2023 07:02

I'm 10DPO today and just had a BFN. Were in cycle one of ttc, my first pregnancy was very unplanned so not been in ttc territory before. I came off the pill in January so only had a couple of 'normal' cycles.
Am I out this month or is 10 DPO still very early?

Sleepinghippo · 31/03/2023 06:59

Congrats @slislimshadyscousin
Hoping for some more bfps :)))))

MountainFi · 31/03/2023 05:25

Congrats @slimshadyscousin !!

9DPO, BFN and temp is down, not below CL but heading there… think i’m out this time 🙃

Boymum111 · 30/03/2023 19:39

I’ll be planning to jump out of bed tomorrow morning again to test! I’ll be 9DPO and inspired by these lovely BFP. Such a great thread ❤️

slimshadyscousin · 30/03/2023 18:39

Thanks ladies! Will keep following this thread and looking forward to seeing some more BFPs!

@TunnocksTCake I did read that too.. I think I had nose bleeds with DC1 but can't 100% remember. Going to test tomorrow CD10 😬

What day are you planning to test?

TunnocksTCake · 30/03/2023 13:04

Eep @slimshadyscousin I think official congratulations are in order! So pleased for you!

@pinkthree nose bleeds are a good sign! I had that with my DD and last month with chemical.

Sorry to those with bfns but as you say still early!

I'm 8dpo and will be holding off a little longer. Weirdly unobsessed this cycle bacause I don't think we stand a chance with all the illness I had over fertile week!! Only noticeable thing for me was a few short sharp stomach pangs on cd5/6 and in boobs almost daily. And a complete lack of my usual horrible PMS which is usually quite extreme...

I've not tested today,

I think that's definitely your BFP @slimshadyscousin!! Congratulations

Just had a nose bleed, so weird

Boymum111 · 30/03/2023 09:17

@MountainFi ah I was the same! Of course BFN but at least that’s it done for the day! Everything crossed for tomorrow for us! I also had sore hippies yesterday for a short time but went away!

Obviously meant sore nipples not hippies 😂

Boymum111 · 30/03/2023 09:19

@slimshadyscousin definitely a darker line - amazing congrats!

Boymum111 · 30/03/2023 09:17

slimshadyscousin · 30/03/2023 09:08

@MountainFi i find myself wide awake early in the morning telling myself to go back to sleep so I can test when I wake up! Crazy. I had absolutely no line at 7/8 DPO so not out yet. Keeping everything crossed for you.

has anyone else tested? My line is definitely stronger today!

Testing 02/04 - Anyone want to join me?
MountainFi · 30/03/2023 06:58

@Boymum111 I jumped out of bed this morning at 8DPO 🤣 BFN, who’d have thought it 🤣🤣. Out of system now though. Also I think I ovulated afternoon of 0DPO, so I’m really 7.5DPO…

Anyway. Tingly nipples today (weird).

fingers crossed for everyone else testing today!!

Boymum111 · 29/03/2023 21:25

@TTCno1x i use the easy at home ones which are same sensitivity as FRER! So I am using those until I get a hint of a line then using FRER as I went OTT last month with FRER and can’t keep that up! But yes I do think FRER show a stronger line for sure. The easy at home ones are cheap and I get Amazon next day delivery!

TTCno1x · 29/03/2023 21:20

@Boymum111 I am out of frer tests and I don't want to shell out on any more so I'll be using the cheap ones! They are meant to pick up early but I don't think as early as frer?! Totally agree about getting it out the way! Then can get on with your day

Boymum111 · 29/03/2023 21:11

@TTCno1x temp looks like a good sign! Try testing again in morning?
The wait is agonising, I’ll be jumping out of bed tomo to test and at 8DPO I already know I’ll be disappointed but sometimes I think it’s better just to get it outta the way for the day!

TTCno1x · 29/03/2023 21:11

@slimshadyscousin probably tomorrow realistically, haha! Should probably wait till Friday though!

slimshadyscousin · 29/03/2023 20:05

Definitely could be something @TTCno1x ! When are you planning on testing?

TTCno1x · 29/03/2023 12:52

I thought my temp was on it's way down so AF was on way... shot up this morning - could it mean anything?! Argh.

Testing 02/04 - Anyone want to join me?
TTCno1x · 29/03/2023 12:45

@Boymum111 don't worry we all do it - it's so hard not to test!! I think I might be addicted... haha. Fingers crossed for you in a few days!

Boymum111 · 29/03/2023 12:16

@slimshadyscousin yes I see a line! Does it have a colour in it? Looking positive for you though so everything crossed.

@TTCno1x definitely keep us posted - maybe just different concentrations when testing and didn’t show up today? Still early.

@pinkthree still holding out hope; early enough and headache could be a symptom! It’s such a rollercoaster isn’t it.

im 7DPO and couldn’t wait to test - obviously a BPN, why I test early I don’t know, so silly!
