New thread for those of us now trying for the first babies of 2024, may we all be lucky this month!

I'm CD1 today of cycle 6 ttc my second.
Had a chemical at the end of February and lots of illness in March so revved up to give this month all I've got!

@Angelselevenx sounds like you've done all that you could so I'm hoping for a BFP for you 😁 we were unlucky with the timing this month so only managed DTD on -2 and 1DPO, so I'm not expecting much.

bringmearainbow · 25/06/2023 08:50

@Angelselevenx yay for TWW 🥳 hope it goes quick for you lovely 🤞🏼

@MrsJGrealish couldn't remember where I saw your message 😂 next scan is after AF I need to book it in which now she's arrived I'll call on Monday and get it done next week that gives plenty of time for an to come and go

MrsJGrealish · 24/06/2023 19:28

@bringmearainbow when's your next scan lovely? Hope AF is v heavy 😘

Angelselevenx · 24/06/2023 17:29

@SummerOak I'm cycle 5 TTC #1 as well, CP on month 2 but nothing since 😔

I track bbt and OPK, although tried to be more relaxed this month but that didn't happen haha. Managed to DTD -4, -2, -1 and O day this month.

SummerOak · 24/06/2023 15:26

@Angelselevenx I'm on cycle 5 trying for baby #1, but I've only started tracking ovulation last month. Still new to all of this. How about you?

Angelselevenx · 24/06/2023 12:01

@SummerOak sorry to hear of your CP too 😔. What cycle is this for you?

SummerOak · 24/06/2023 09:52

@Angelselevenx sorry to hear about your CP. I had one in May, that's why I don't want to test too early this time.

I'm not tracking BBT yet. Might give it a go in the next cycle.

Angelselevenx · 24/06/2023 09:16

@SummerOak I'm telling myself I'm not either 😂 although I normally care about 9DPO. I had a CP in March so I'm really going to try to not test this month.

Do you track your BBT?

SummerOak · 24/06/2023 08:54

@Angelselevenx I'll join you on the wait. Currently 2DPO. At what time do you start testing? I told myself I won't do it before AF needs to come, but I'm sure that will change 🤣

Angelselevenx · 24/06/2023 07:25

1DPO today! TWW begins.... again 😅

bringmearainbow · 23/06/2023 11:18

@L0uise35 def see a line on the boots 🥳 the digis def need more hcg and if you haven't used FMU for it it's likely not to show this early!

@CinderRosie good luck for FW 🤞🏼

AF arrived today hopefully the tissue passes and we have a nice clean slate for this cycle

CinderRosie · 23/06/2023 10:44

@L0uise35 I see lines on all your tests! The digitals take longer to show as pregnant as they're less sensitive than dye tests.

L0uise35 · 23/06/2023 10:36

So I went out a got a boots brand which has pink eye and a digital clearblue. Differing results . What do ye think. The boots picture taken as the 3 min timer went

Hi all hope you don't mind if I join here? I'm 36, TTC #2 but will be DH's first, on cycle #3 although cycles 1 & 2 we only DTD on my ovulation day. This is our first month of trying 'properly'. Got flashing smiley today so officially in my fertile window and we DTD last night.

@L0uise35 I see a line, I have had lines on these tests before that turned out to be evaps but they didn't show til just after the timeframe so if yours was within then I'd be cautiously optimistic. If you can't get a FRER I've heard the Boots own brand early detection pink dye test are really good, no evaps.

Annie1295 · 23/06/2023 09:43

@L0uise35 I think I can see a line there. I usually get digital test to avoid any questions maybe give that ago if you're not sure?

bringmearainbow · 23/06/2023 08:34

@L0uise35 did it come up in timeframe?

L0uise35 · 23/06/2023 08:33

@bringmearainbow me too. This is my first time ever seeing a positive so I wasn't sure. Going to go out and get first response to double check

bringmearainbow · 23/06/2023 08:31

@L0uise35 ooooh I see that 🤞🏼

L0uise35 · 23/06/2023 08:30

Hi All , 11 dpo. Can ye see the line does it look bfp to you?

SummerOak · 22/06/2023 15:48

Hi. So I finally got a positive ovulation line on CD20 after the chemical pregnancy and my DH is out on a conference and won't be back until tomorrow 😞 How good are the chances of conceiving 1 day after ovulation?

L0uise35 · 21/06/2023 17:53

Thanks @Annie1295 and @bringmearainbow I gave in and tested and it was BFN. Going to leave it a few days. Fingers crossed

Annie1295 · 21/06/2023 17:27

@L0uise35 definitely felt similar before my BFP last pregnancy. The first few days and weeks I was really tired and had a nap every lunch break. Fingers crossed for you!

bringmearainbow · 21/06/2023 14:31

@L0uise35 yes though I didn't have cramps as I have a retroverted uterus so mine manifest as a back ache which was awful this was all from 7dpo. At 9dpo I had to have a 2 hour nap I did a test and was absolutely convinced I was pregnant I felt so weird and crap but nothing showed on a stick until FMU at 10dpo so don't give up if it isn't showing today

L0uise35 · 21/06/2023 13:55

Hi ladies. Quick question. So I am 9 dpo ttc baby 1 so very new to this. Since 4dpo I have been horrifically tired past few days. With on off cramps and super sensitive nipples. Today nausea, fatigue and cramps are so bad I have taken off work. Anyone experience symptoms like this 9 dpo

L0uise35 · 21/06/2023 09:09

@LetsGo36 thanks for the message.
Understandable to be emotional, it's a tough journey to go through.
