TTC 2024 Babies 🍼🤰🏻🌟🍀🤞🏻💕

@LetsGo36 I feel you there - my sister in law is 4 weeks ahead of where we should be, and it's a real struggle (I was due in early Feb). AF came yesterday (4 1/2 weeks after surgery) so I'm CD2 now, back into breaking the month into chunks again for TTC! Fingers and toes crossed for you x

AF due today, tested and negative. Having a hard month. My friend and I were due to have our babies at the same time (Jan 24)but I miscarried and saw her today with a lovely bump growing. I’m so happy for her, I really am, but I am sad today and really feeling my loss.
Hope you are all well. Sorry I have been quiet just been finding things hard x

6dpo today and feeling a bit nauseous again but after last month I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up. Also feel like I've got a cold coming on so could just be that.

How is everyone else doing?

Never mind, it finally confirmed so officially 4 or 5 dpo. Not sure we DTD enough this month so not getting my hopes up. It's really hard to find the balance I think. We're just DTD every other day in the fertile window at the moment because every day got too mich last time we were trying but somehow it doesn't feel enough to rely on 3 times....

I've had a positive clear blue advanced test on Thursday but still waiting for the temperature rise - has that ever happened to anyone ?

@Babyhopeful23 ah I'm sorry it's negative but still time before AF 🙏 AF started for me today, on 11dpo which is earlier than expected 🙄

@Babyhopeful23 Aww I know you must feel so deflated, but you're definitely not out unless AF arrives 🤞🤞
@Annie1295 Oh it's Murphys law that peak days fall when we're at our busiest and most stressed 🥴 At least you're almost in tww so hopefully the busy times will be a good distraction 👌

@Sez281 getting on okay, peak fertility today so got to find the energy to DTD today after a busy week at work. Somehow feels like the fertile window always happens when it's busiest

@Babyhopeful23 sorry to hear that :( you're not out until AF shows though!

Unfortunately it’s a negative, and a hard one to swallow. I felt different and had belief that this was the month.

@Daniki sorry to hear about your job, you definitely don't need the stress of that on top of this rollercoaster 😣 @Babyhopeful23 good luck with the boots test today, that tugging crampy feeling could definitely be a sign 🤞 @Annie1295 how are you doing?

God i would love your willpower! Il still test now regardless even tho i know I'm out 😂 ah well maybe not having the dread of going into this new job every day will help in the next cycle.

@Daniki I really hope so. I can’t help wondering for every twinge and pain. I’m never a symptom spotter and I usually plod along with life until I’m around 12DPO and test. Some months I didn’t test because I just knew AF was on the way.

Fingers crossed for us all x

Hi,

First cycle trying for my 5th. I would love a Spring/Summer baby.

@Babyhopeful23 I was over emotional all the times I was pregnant and had the stretchy feeling so I really good you get a positive! Every month I scour these threads for the BFN that turn to BFP and there is loads 🙏 gives me hope every month! Xx

@Sez281 i thought you might be a little further along, doesn’t time go so slowly during the TWW. Don’t rule it out maybe the swimmers are stronger when you haven’t DTD so much. Hope your blood results are reassuring.

@Daniki oh no, I hope next month is your month. Sorry to hear about your job too! Defo a well deserved glass of wine.

I am 11 DPO negative on internet cheapies. But I’m hoping that my boots early will be positive tomorrow morning. I have this weird pulling stretching feeling in my lower abdomen. Every other month I had no symptoms and knew I wasn’t pregnant but I feel a little different this time. Hate to get my hopes up though. On the other hand I’m emotional and that makes me think AF is on the way. I just don’t want to be disappointed this month, because melt hopes are much higher.

That should be only and **this month

@Babyhopeful23 I'm on 2DPO so waaay too early to test (even for me 😂) I'm not feeling hopeful at all last month, I've had really bad cramping ever since my CP last cycle (I have endo and fibroids so I think that's part of it - waiting on blood results from gp to make sure all ok.. Also we didn't dtd half as much as I wanted this cycle so I'm not get my hopes up. No doubt I'll start testing early next week though! 🙈 What DPO are you? Fingers cross this is your month 🤞🤞

@Babyhopeful23 oh god yea started 3 days ago 😂 10dpo and still negative 🥺 I just know I'm out, iv having brown spotting and I always get that before AF.

Got let go from my new job today 😖 more stress I don't need.

@Daniki @Sez281 have ye begun testing yet? I’ve had a negative on an at home cheapie. I’m testing on a boots early test tomorrow. Loads of strange feelings in my lower abdomen but I feel like I’m imagining it. I really hope this is the month.

Good luck @Annie1295 I’m only on CD5 so not near you but fingers crossed for you!

Got a static smiley on Clearblue today so 🤞 this cycle will work! Not ready for the TWW but hopefully it'll go by quickly this month.

Anyone else about to enter the TWW?

Thanks! I might look into switching over to other apps next cycle if necessary

@Annie1295 I’m using Flo. There’s an option to log either digital or strip OPKs.

I’ve also started using Fertility Friend for their more detailed charts.

@Annie1295 I started using premom, and will try and take a look at flo as well
