Ovulation date 25th or 26th March - TWW thread

480 replies

TTCing · 25/03/2023 07:59

Hi ladies, who would like to join a TWW thread. My ovulation date is today or tomorrow ❤️

Month 9 TTC baby number 2.

I have a 1 year old who took 16 months to conceive.

I’m 29 and my hubs is 31. We know my husband has a fertility issue so we’re aware it could well be a long road ahead. Not that it makes TTC any more bearable. Every month is depressing when AF arrives!

Would love to share in the TWW with some others!

@Mummy1502 I don do opk but it matched with my cm and cervix position that's how I usually checked for ovulation. I had a small rise yesterday and it stayed up today. We'll see if af is on the way it should be dropping soon. But based on my chart analysis and symptoms the app says there's 66% chance of pregnancy.

@Stillwinston definitely ❤️
It’s been so nice to have people to talk to that understand. We’ve not told anyone in our lives that we’re TTC and DH gets very stressed very easily so it’s been so helpful having everyone on here 🥰

Mummy1502 · 07/04/2023 10:23

@emmatcc1 doesnt that normally mean your pregnant? Did you find it matched up with your opk x

Stillwinston · 07/04/2023 10:13

@TTCing positive thoughts, although 1 in 4 is a scary statistic, 3 in 4 pregnancies are successful ❤️

I haven't tested this morning (mainly as I have no tests in the house), think I'll just wait and see if AF arrives tomorrow or Sunday x

@Mummy1502 let us know how you get on with the FRER. I’m suspicious of Clearblue ones with lines as I’ve had one before that looked obviously positive and I wasn’t pregnant. Crossing my fingers for you!

@NoodleQueen90 i think feeling relaxed is a good sign! Enjoy going to see the baby! I bet it will feel so surreal ❤️

@TTC53 thank you! I definitely did not go back to sleep and I also woke up my husband 🤣 I could never not tell him straight away! I’m 12DPO today. AF due either yesterday, today or tomorrow. I’ve had mild stomach cramps a few days (made me think AF was coming, so I didn’t think they were pregnancy related). Other than that, I’d not have known. I was 100% not expecting it to be positive. I literally just thought ‘I’ll use this cheapy, it’ll be negative and at least I can move on to the next month of TTC if I’m negative on 12dpo.’

@Baconbinge thank you! 12DPO today!

@Stillwinston have you tested today? Hope that you might still get your bfp this month? Sending you love and wishing you loads of luck for the next cycle. You never know, I might be joining you if I have a chemical. I’m anxious about this 😞 it’s hard to be naively happy when it’s happened before xx

@Mummy1502 I tried it first rime this cycle and it really helped me pinpoint ovulation but now I'm confused as my temps just keep rising with no drops.

Stillwinston · 07/04/2023 09:43

@Ttcdcno1 me too! Let's keep each other company for the next cycle 😊❤️

Mummy1502 · 07/04/2023 09:30

@emmatcc1 i personally havnt tried it, couldn’t possibly drive myself insane more than I already do, I resisted from tracking with opk’s this month but didn’t manage to resist testing early 😂 x

emmatcc1 · 07/04/2023 09:21

do any of you track bbt and what do your charts look like

Ttcdcno1 · 07/04/2023 09:14

Congratulations @TTCing 💕🥰

and fingers crossed you got a dark line on a frer @Mummy1502

@Stillwinston I must definitely be out this cycle, no AF yet but did a frer this morning and absolutely nothing. Just want to get going again now 😂

Mummy1502 · 07/04/2023 08:44

@Stillwinston @Baconbinge thankyou will keep updated x

Baconbinge · 07/04/2023 08:32

Congratulations @TTCing how exciting! How many dpo are you?

@Mummy1502 definitely do a frer, fingers crossed you are on your way for a bfp too.

Stillwinston · 07/04/2023 08:31

@Mummy1502 I think I also see a vfl there, let us know how you get on with the frer tests 🤞 x

Stillwinston · 07/04/2023 08:30

@TTCing yes!!!! This has made me so bloody happy, I'm delighted for you ❤️ sad I'm going to have to find a new TTC buddy for the next cycle though 😂 massive congratulations xx

Mummy1502 · 07/04/2023 08:22

@TTC53 thankyou, will update once I’ve done frer x

TTC53 · 07/04/2023 08:08

@Mummy1502 I understand the need to not get your hopes up to protect yourself but I really hope that the faint thick line was the start of your bfp

Mummy1502 · 07/04/2023 07:54

@TTC53 in the time frame it was fainter and thicker barely even noticeable then as it dried it went skinny so I’m really not sure, im
not getting my hopes up from that though I’m taking it as an evap, will be surprised if it’s a real positive x

TTC53 · 07/04/2023 07:49

@TTCing huge congratulations!!! Such amazing news, and on a digital one too. I bet there was no going back go sleep after that! Any symptoms for you this month or just a af no show?

@Mummy1502 I definitely see the line, congratulations too! Did it come up within the time frame? I've never used clearblue so I can't offer advice re evap line but I'm keeping everything crossed for your testing later with frer.

Hope everyone else is doing well this morning

Mummy1502 · 07/04/2023 06:57

It’s a real squinter but these clearblue are really testing me! I don’t trust them as have had many false positives before with them but I had a spare one in my cupboard until frers arrive, Is this really another evap or the start of a bfp, 10dpo today, I have frer coming today on an Amazon delivery, couldn’t find them anywhere local x

NoodleQueen90 · 07/04/2023 06:38

Yeah, I guess I'm just thinking what will be will be so waiting a few days won't change the outcome...I was getting really neurotic about it reading all these threads before but somethings different this month, I was already feeling more relaxed so maybe that has made a difference 😁
Going to visit my friends new baby this weekend and I can't wait, he's only 2 weeks old and absolutely adorable!

Mummy1502 · 07/04/2023 06:32

@TTCing congratulations x

My little girl’s birthday is mid December too! So I’ll have two December babies if all goes well with this pregnancy!

You’re very controlled to hold out on a digital until Monday! I’m very impressed.

Fingers crossed all will be well for us both ❤️

NoodleQueen90 · 07/04/2023 05:55

Aw that's amazing, so happy for you!
I think I'm 11dpo today but I didn't use opks this month, was just going off previous cycles and gut feeling lol could have been a day or 2 out either way.
I've only had a vfl so far so trying not to get too carried away but I seem to be getting more symptoms now, I burst into tears last night because I thought I had a packet of noodles in the cupboard but had eaten them previously 🤣
I'm going to test on Monday with OH there too, I have a digital stashed so keeping everything crossed!
Flo app thinks if I conceived this month, due date would be around 14th December so we'll see. My niece was a Christmas baby so at least they wouldn't be the only one with a December birthday!

Thank you! I’m 12dpo today. Which is the same DPO I was when I found out I was pregnant with my daughter. I had a faint line on a cheapy pregnancy test and the only other test I had in the house was this digital. AF is usually due between days 28-30 of my cycle and it’s day 29 today. Remind me how many DPO you are now?

Have you calculated your due date? Sorry to hear you’re feeling wiped out but that sounds like a good sign ❤️

I hope you have a good day at work xx

NoodleQueen90 · 07/04/2023 05:27

Wow congratulations @TTCing 🎉 a digital as well!
How many days DPO are you and when was AF due?
Keeping everything crossed for you that it's s sticky one.
I was so exhausted last night I fell asleep at 8:30...now wide awake and off work 😂
