Ovulation date 25th or 26th March - TWW thread

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!

I'm 11dpo today and my frer was whiter than white 😭 definitely out for the count this month so back to tracking again 😤 will keep everything crossed for the rest of you ladies xx

Mummy1502 · 06/04/2023 12:16

@emmatcc1 sounds like all good signs, I had some cramping yesterday and this morning but I really don’t think it’s gonna be positive for me this month, I have some frer coming tomorrow so will test then, il be 10dpo if it’s negative then I can be pretty sure I’m out x

emmatcc1 · 06/04/2023 12:13

@Mummy1502 I had lots od creamy cm which has dried up a bit there's still some but not as much as before. I also have sore boobs since ovulation almost and they just keep getting more painful and I had pretty bad cramping on 6 dpo. Don't know if it's positive signs or me just over analyzing everything.

Mummy1502 · 06/04/2023 12:10

@emmatcc1 i was starving for a couple of days and craving foods I wouldn’t normally eat, couldn’t stop eating but seems to have gone back to normal now x

Mummy1502 · 06/04/2023 12:06

@emmatcc1 im 9dpo aswell, nothing other than slightly sore right boob you? X

emmatcc1 · 06/04/2023 12:03

@Mummy1502 I'm 9dpo period due in 6 days. What dpo are you do you have any symptoms?

Mummy1502 · 06/04/2023 11:57

What cycle day is everyone on? My af is due in 4 days, thought I’d have at least a faint line by now if it was going to be positive this month, looks like I’m probably out x

Congratulations!!

I also caved as I found a test in a draw. Nothing, not even a test line! I don’t recommend Boots tests!!

Ttcdcno1 · 06/04/2023 11:30

Congratulations @Baconbinge 💕

Mummy1502 · 06/04/2023 11:22

Baconbinge · 06/04/2023 11:03

I promised myself I wouldn't, but I couldn't help myself 🙈 Looks like it's confirmed, 3 different wees from this morning.

My temps went up again could this be a good sign or is it normal. Also I have been waking up covered in sweat and my boobs have been sore but they usually get sore just before af and I still have 6 days to go.

@Stillwinston @Mummy1502 thanks ladies. I really hope so, will have to keep my fingers crossed it's a sticky one 🥰

Stillwinston · 06/04/2023 08:59

@Mummy1502 sorry to hear that, will keep my fingers crossed though as there's still a chance 🤞 x

Stillwinston · 06/04/2023 08:58

@TTCing sending love, I'm feeling exactly the same way. See you here for the next round? ❤️

Stillwinston · 06/04/2023 08:57

@Baconbinge definitely positive 🥳

Mummy1502 · 06/04/2023 08:22

@Baconbinge looks positive to me, congratulations, I’ve had lots of false positives with clearblue but the lines are always skinny! Your line is nice and thick x

Baconbinge · 06/04/2023 07:57

Morning ladies.

So I'm 10 or 11 dpo today and did my first test. This came up pretty much straight away. Trying not to get excited because I've seen a lot about evap lines on other threads, what do you ladies think? I'm quite new to all of this.

@Stillwinston totally agree! TTC is absolutely draining 😞 Sending you love ❤️
On to month 9 of TTC. I just find it insane that I’ve spent 25 months of my life TTC and some people get pregnant within the first month or first 2-3 months every time! I know a lot of people (in real life) like that.

I’ve had another negative so I’m certain I’m out this month as I’m 11dpo now. I knew this month wasn’t my lucky month but I still feel really deflated. I feel my PMS symptoms are much more heightened than they were pre baby. I’m quite emotional, teary and
moody in the run up to AF these days.

Good luck to anyone else testing xxx

@TTCing I think we're going to go private just to speed things up a bit tbh - ironic that I've left it over 2 years and am now fixated on how quickly we can get it done 😂 and I completely know what you mean about the worry increasing each month - especially when you know that you dtd at the right time and it's just not happening. Tbh I can't wait to being in the position to never having to think about getting pregnant ever again, it's just so blooming draining! X

@Stillwinston samr here with us. We got pregnant just after we had the results about my husband’s fertility! So we never got chance to worry too much. But now it’s taking a while again, the stress begins to ramp up doesn’t it? We will go through the NHS initially as our GP has said he’ll happily order new fertility tests for us at the 12 month mark again.

But of course we know we won’t get any fertility help as we already have a child.

How about you? NHS or private? X

Amazing news @NoodleQueen90 !!

Sorry to hear af arrived @Kirstyddd. It never gets any easier does it. In regards to bbt, make sure you're taking it at roughly the same time each morning as soon as you wake before doing anything, including having a wee, going on your phone, leaving the bed etc. Your bbt will be lower in the first half of your cycle. To confirm ovulation - along side using opks - there needs to be at least three higher temps.
opks, do them in the afternoon until you believe that you're in your fertile window and then do them twice a day so you don't miss your peak. Ovulation is predicted to occur around 24-48 hours after the surge.

Hope all that makes sense!
