My first TWW 🙈

I'm sure our bodies like to wind us up 🙈 certain things we would probably not even notice if we weren't ttc but I'm holding out hope for you. I seem to be really chilled in the 2 weeks of knowing I'm not then the ovulation and 2ww happens and I get a bit antsy lol.

Yes I do believe this is it... over the usual ov days I do a test in morning and test at night so will see what occurs but I have a feeling the app will tell me this mornings was peak once I do the next. The last 3 peaks have been between 1.10 and 1.25 so for this to be 1.66 I'm like woah... hope I'm only releasing one egg 😂

Ooo that's good to hear, fingers crossed for you. I found that every cycle I thought I was pregnant I was blaming sore boobs as a symptom and then the cycle I caught on my boobs didn't really hurt much like they usually would but then I got to 6 weeks and boom they felt like they were made of concrete haha. Rather frustrating it's the same kind of symptoms for both pms and early pregnancy 🥴
I was unsuccessful last cycle, now day 13 of current cycle and I am pretty sure I've got my peak ovulation test today and feeling so happy it's not cycle day 20 etc like it has been recently, I always used to get peak on day 13 so I'm happy to just have that back to normal. Think it's due to no chemical pregnancy taking place as it has in the last few cycles before knocking the following cycles out of sync. We saw donor on day 11 and will be seeing again tomorrow and then day 16 too with a pencilled in later donation on day 20 depending on my LH sticks. Though I'm pretty confident it's gonna happen in next couple of days judging by this haha. So I shouldn't be far behind you in the dpo 😁

How is everyone doing?x

Aw bless ya. Onto the next cycle. I always feel a strange upset but mixed relief to get onto next cycle. Yea was too early to test... May be that knowing I buy tests in bulk I don't feel like I'm wasting them as such haha. As I explained a few cycles ago it wasn't till day 13 or so I got my positive last time so I need to take my own advice in not being too disheartened by bfn yet haha. Think it's psychological with the due date approaching day I'm due on it would be kinda nice x fingers crossed this is your cycle x

So sorry to hear that @Lemonbell the early losses are a real kicker. I've pretty much had 2 chemical losses in a row, a month of no conception then another chemical loss all in the 4 months of trying after my 12 week loss in Feb. Its just s**t... I hope this month is the one for you.

How is everyone getting on? I'm 9 dpo and did a test though it was bfn, I have some symptoms but have decided that even if I am in the process of conceiving and or from this point on I'm not actually going to let myself get excited until I'm 2 weeks late with a bfp. I'm due on on Sunday which happens to be my babies due date and emotions are all over the place. This ttc game is hella stressful. Hope everyone else is doing alright x

I am day 1 of cycle today. It was a strange cycle as i knew the chances of pregnancy were pretty much 0% as it was a week between insemination and ovulation but here's hoping next cycle is the cycle for all of us. It was my 3rd cycle trying that I caught on in nov/Dec last year so I have everything crossed for you. Was nice not having the tww filled with squinting and testing to be honest but we are going for a different approach this cycle and seeing the donor every 2 to 3 days from day 11 onwards so hopefully that will make a difference instead of waiting for the ovulation sticks to do their thing. I will still use the sticks just so I know when to expect my period. This was a 33 day long cycle which is the longest I've had yet and I'd have classed myself as nearly a week late from my usual 27 day cycles had I not been using the sticks lol.

Baby dust to all

Well today's test is... 2 robots

Fingers crossed for you I hope this is your month 🤞🤞

I've never used an app before to be honest apart from when I was pregnant I used one to be able to see what the baby looked like. This was cos i was sick of trying to look at each days stick and thought after seeing several people on here post pics of this app that I'll try it. I was shocked at is gauging the line number though haha. Yes today's line is dark... in the past it's got darker towards period but that's not meant to be for another 9 days going by day 19/20 for ovulation and even then its usually never as dark as that. Have arranged to see donor tomorrow so fingers crossed that last surge was fake and this was real haha. Yea having to track everything is frustrating but thankfully he isn't going abroad for another year now 🤣

Maybe you did ovulate later... I was gonna say try not to get too out with tests or worry but I do as soon as I'm in 2ww I'm sure everything and anything is I must be pregnant haha.

Forgot to add pic lol

Aww bless you, it is often easier to just be more blasé with it.

Well I finally got a peak ov stick on day 19 of cycle meaning ovulation probably around day 20, as I saw donor on day 10 and 12 I know for a fact I'll be out this month, I know sperm can live up to 5 days at a push but 8 days is just not going to happen. I've had a random LH spike today and donor returned yesterday, I'm unsure whether to get in touch and just try one last time just in case. My cycles seem to be all over the place last couple of months after recurrent chemicals... I just don't know and now I have a massive cold coming I can't even breathe through my nose 😫 ill attach a pic of the sticks and the app I've started using. I can't do bbt as its never accurate as I am up with dd through the night alot and have issues falling asleep as it is it always told me I was spiking when I wasn't. But the sticks have usually been pretty accurate. I can't even say its cos I'm due on as they have been known to increase on the sticks but only ever so slightly and only like 2 or so days before period... which isn't due till day 34, in 9 days time (going by ovulation being on day 20 that is) I miss my very usual clockwork cycles 27 days ovulation day 14... arg lol. Feels endless. I am approaching my babies due date and just feel a bit emotional around the whole thing atm too its all just pants 🥴

Haha that is the best way I find and woo 4dpo I was gonna say we should just keep coming back to this thread this cycle 😊

Well my donor is on hol this cycle from day 13 to day 25 so we managed to see him on day 10 and day 12... annoyingly according to my sticks which are usually spot on I've not had a peak yet and I'm now day 17 so I'm thinking I am probably out this cycle annoyingly... it was day 17 I got the peak last cycle... if I haven't peaked by his return will do a last shabang attempt on day 25 if he's not too jetlagged haha. Having chemicals on what feels like a monthly basis seems to be confusing my cycles as I used to have 27 day cycles and ov on day 13/14 for so many months. Even after my 12 week loss it went straight back to my normal pattern so I'm a tad annoyed with my body as the sperm would still have been there and able to do its thing from day 12 to today but meh lol. I gave myself the impossible task of being pregnant again by the time my babies due date was here which is 27th August but I think it may not happen and knowing my luck will be the cycle after 🤦‍♀️

I send lots of good look and baby dust to you and everyone else still in this thread. You never know I could have had a very quick peak I missed on the sticks but I usually have signs when i ov which I haven't yet. Hope youbare all well xx
