@Mangotango39 yeah I'm still testing but I have a bang on 28 day cycle so not sure can you still ovulate late even with a really regular cycle 🤷🏼‍♀️ I have no idea 😅 congrats on your BFP by the way 😍

@ManchesterRoad yeah totally get what you mean adding in the BBT as well I'm already feeling like I'm just peeing on sticks all day every day to add that in as well!!

ManchesterRoad · 05/06/2023 21:44

@Silverpixieflorence are you going to keep testing just in case you get a solid smiley? it’s so confusing isn’t it - I’m hoping I’ll know what I’m doing in a few cycles. I’m toying with the idea of taking my daily temp but fear it’s adding another layer of stress.

Mangotango39 · 05/06/2023 21:44

@Silverpixieflorence I never ovulate where I'm suppose to - it's about a week later then apps predict. Hang in there is could be coming later so keep testing 😊

Silverpixieflorence · 05/06/2023 20:12

@ManchesterRoad I'm also feeling clueless even though I'm trying for #2 it's like I've forgotten everything!

Fingers crossed and good luck to everyone!

We've started trying properly this month came off the pill last September. Have 1 DD 2.5 years. I'm supposedly 1DPO but only had flashing smileys and no solid 🤷🏼‍♀️ premom and cheapey tests are showing only low readings. Feel like this month is probably a write off but hopefully will know what I'm doing better for next month!

Hope to see lots of BFP's for everyone 😊

Please may I join?

1st cycle trying for #1. Currently 5dpo and feeling clueless 😂

BB2023 · 05/06/2023 19:27

CD10 for me today and a high reading on cleae blue digital ovulation tests. Last month I got a peak reading at CD16 so might have a few days to go yet before seeing that this month but we can start to step up DTD this week now x

@Hankthehonk

I also read that book! Started taking Coq10 last cycle and ended up ovulating late and having a 5 day longer cycle. I wasn't sure why but this would explain it as I'm usually like clockwork and the only difference last cycle was coq10 and evening primrose for first 14 days.
This cycle in sticking with pre-natal only too.

Hi ladies 👋

This month will be first month of ttc #2 our DD is 16 months old. It took 15 months to conceive her so not expecting this to be a quick journey but you never know.

Currently on CD5, usually ovulate around CD13/14 not planning to use OPKs (yet) as ovulation seems fairly consistent…

Good luck everyone! X

@HyggeTyggeDotCom welcome! Im 5dpo , trying to spot some symptoms but nothing major so far :// it’s my first cycle « officially » trying (for my #2) so I’m trying to take it easy even though the TWW seem soooo long ! Will probably start testing at 8dpo cause I’ll be too curious hihi

Hankthehonk · 05/06/2023 14:57

Jumping on as I think I'm 1dpo today - hoping to confirm ovulation with 3 days of BBT rises as my cycle and symptoms have been a bit messy since my miscarriage in March. But ovulation symptoms were clear Saturday night/Sunday morning with LH peak, pains, ewcm and high sex drive. It was CD39.

Congratulations @Mangotango39 it's amazing to see a June BFP already! Let's hope for many more on this thread.

Re supplements affecting cyles - I read 'It starts with the egg' after my miscarriage and following advice there started taking CoQ10 and Folate. But I've stopped taking them when my cycle went haywire as I read that they could impact cycles. Been off them for a couple of weeks now, just taking regular folic acid, vit c and iron, and things seem to be (hopefully) getting back to normal. I'm not sure it was definitely that, might have been stress related or just to do with my miscarriage, but I got nervous and stopped taking them anyway.

HyggeTyggeDotCom · 05/06/2023 14:51

Hiya, was looking for a June thread and found you! I’m 8 dpo, been cramping the last two days and boobs are killing me. Had a chemical in April so very nervously waiting to test.

Dreamer88 · 05/06/2023 13:29

@Mangotango39 congrats, certainly bringing me hope as I’m going through some reproductive problems atm so good to hear some success.

SouthSpringMoon · 05/06/2023 13:12

@Mangotango39 wow! Congrats so happy for you! That’s bringing us all hope and positive vibes !

Mangotango39 · 05/06/2023 12:52

@Snowdrop79 incredibly lucky to be honest - my gp is amazing she had sent me for tests before we tried due to my pcos and previous MC x2 (through accidents) To check everything was in order with my levels.

She has an extra qualification in reproductive health so she has been really knowledgeable .

fingers crossed helps a smooth ride !

any update for yourself??

Snowdrop79 · 05/06/2023 12:41

@Mangotango39 huge congrats on the BFP🌸 glad that your GP is on it with the testing etc too.

theodora2146 · 05/06/2023 12:39

We are starting to try again after a loss in November. Currently on CD13 ovulation is in a couple of days, fingers crossed for everyone!

Mangotango39 · 05/06/2023 12:26

Thank you all - appreciate it and praying for progression!

@Pandabumbles I am not taking that one but I heard people comment similar about seven seas!

Pandabumbles · 05/06/2023 12:19

@Mangotango39 yay, lovely to see a BFP, congrats! Wishing you a healthy and safe pregnancy x

I'm CD12 today, I've been taking pregnacare conception last couple of months and think it might be lengthening my cycle... anyone else experienced this? EWCM delayed by 3 days...hmm

PeeBeee · 05/06/2023 11:26

@emmatcc1 pretty sure I ovulated last night as I had pains (i usually feel ovulation) in bed in lower back and one side low down but will test again today to see if it’s come down and bd again today too just incase!

Plumbibii · 04/06/2023 23:07

Hi @CinderRosie. Lovely to have a cycle buddy now we can symptom spot together😀.
I am 34 years old and my 2 girls are 7 and 6 years old. We are now trying for the third one and we DTD twice in our fertility window.
I have had cramps all day today as well. I do normally get low back pain/period like pain around this time in my cycle but today's cramps are slightly stronger/different than i am used to so hoping it means something. Hopefully this is the cycle for both of us. Xx

CinderRosie · 04/06/2023 22:55

Can I join too please? 🙏🏻
@Plumbibii we are cycle day buddies I am also 3 DPO. I’ve had some cramping today but also had this last month and was BFN so trying not to symptom spot…
this is our second month of TTC, this month we only DTD once in my fertile window which was on ovulation day so not sure how good my chances are. I’m 36, already have an 18yo but DH has no children.
