RESTART TTC DECEMBER CLUB

@pontipinemum fingers crossed 🤞🏼 keep us updated with things. Really hoping for the best for you x

@H938 I've heard to pregnancy causing coldsores!
I've had 4 miscarriages but had DS in between so never got anything investigated. They were all early, before 10 weeks. Only had to have D&C on one. I've booked bloods with my GP for next week both mon and wed so that should probably tell me everything I need to know

@pontipinemum cold sore on my lip i meant- which is for me. Also yes a cold usually is too as your immune system is low to create the baby - something like that!!

whats your history? Have you miscarried a few times before? Hopefully you will be fine. I forget about the chances of that when trying! Theres so much to think about x

@H938 is a cold a symptom? I had a terrible cold last week but I think I just had one!
I've just been onto the EPU, talk about jumping the gun. They are open until the 22nd and then re-open the 27th. On the 22nd I would be 5+5 but thinking unless I have miscarried by then it might be better to be ignorant/ hopeful over Christmas

@pontipinemum I deffo wont now - it would make more sense if i was 4dpo - I woke up with a cold sore and blood in my nose, had that before when pregnant but I dont want to get my hopes up!

you deffo have lines, once you see the digital you will feel much better I know - its a waiting game for sure

@H938 I guess so! I wouldn't bother wasting any more tests for a few days anyway. (says me 😂) I just did a CB normal one and there is a reasonable line on it but I still think I'll hold onto the digital for a few days hours

@pontipinemum its all so complicated 😂 mine is usually 26 ish days i think. Before I changed the peak it said AF due sunday. It now says the following week CD 32. I will just have to wait and see I guess! X

@H938 i don't really know sorry! If ovulation is late can that push out AF? I've gone back for a look on my app I also peaked on CD 17, it has given me an est 32 day cycle this month, probably due to the 'late' period when I had the mc. Before I had 1, 28 day cycle. I only got my period back in Sept after not having it since before getting pregnant with DS

Either way though you can implant on 6DPO. Do you have a fairly set 28 day cycle?

Ive changed on my app so says im 4dpo now. Lets see 🤷🏼‍♀️ thanks @pontipinemum

@pontipinemum is it, ive literally never done them tests before so have no clue- i also thought if I am 5dpo and af due on sunday it wouldnt even give me enough time to implant I dont think! X

That line is looking good @pontipinemum 😊

@H938 I went back to look at your premom screenshot. I think your CD17 is your peak, I'd go into the app and change it to that being your peak. So you are only 5DPO?

@wanderlustre that happened to me!! Then i got another static smiley a week later so im not even sure when I ovulated - if i did!! Just keep dtd lol x

@pontipinemum maybe hold out two days and then do the digital. I read online that only 25% get a positive on 9dpo and goes up to about 75% on 12dpo. X

@Amy7912 congratulation!!

@SlinkMcSlink aw so much, I try not to let DH know I am initiating sex because I think I might be ovulating, let at least 1 of us think it's a little more spontaneous 😂

I think it's def getting darker. FMU for me isn't normally the best either, I drink water through out the night. I'm mad to do the digital but I don't want to waste it either. I'm 10 DPO but because of the MC I don't know when to expect my period

Went from getting blank circles to a static smiley this morning even though I'm using the CB OPKs that are supposed to tell you your 4 most fertile days. It's happened bang on CD12 though as per usual so may sack the tests off now because they're making me wait when I knew I should have just trusted that I know my cycle now.

@Amy7912 Congratulations!!

I got my peak quite late on for me this month. Good luck! Fingers crossed for you

Thankyou. It's strange because I did t feel pregnant at all the only thing for me was I usually have spotting 5 days before my period and it never came. Yesterday morning and the morning before I felt so sick but today the sickness has got to another level 🤢 fingers crossed for you!

@Amy7912 Congratulations!! I got BFN too and now ive sort of given up and expecting AF on the weekend. I had twp ovulation peaks so either 9/10dpo or 4dpo. Figured id find out the weekend if I come on! X

@SlinkMcSlink yes I know what you mean! Its literally getting the job done

And sorry to hear about last month @Impatient1987 that sounds really tough 😔 here's hoping for some better luck for us this month

Congrats @Amy7912! And @SlinkMcSlink I know what you mean, DH and I were saying last night that it must be more fun TTC in the summer when your hands aren't like ice blocks when you get into bed 🤣

Finally got my LH surge - it was 1.1 this morning and a static smiley so I'll keep testing rest of today but that might be my peak. Weirdly it's nice/ a bit reassuring just seeing it there as it's my first month doing opk.

Hi everyone! 9dpo yesterday morning urine gave me a bfn, thought I seen a shadow line on 2 test. Had to take them apart to see it and hold it under a certain light. Last night something told me to do my last test, was a BFP! Sometimes am urine might not always be better it wasn't for me! Good luck to everyone

Hi all, hoping to join, first month ttc number 2 (number 1 is nearly 9months old). Got AF back in November 22nd but it was very odd, only lasted 3 days and was ridiculously light...thought it might be implantation after furiously googling and got a few very faint positives last week but started showing stark white 😔 I've just started with OPKs and tracking via an app. Think I'm ovulating today (cramps and a positive opk (CD14)). DTD CD11, 12 and 14 - hoping that's enough but I have no idea really! So now I guess I sit and wait....don't know how people did this before mumsnet existed!

Anyone feeling the pressure of having to dtd on tap? I just don’t have the mental energy at all. Plus knackered from work, it’s dark and cold…….the passion and scientific nature of all this is not very romantic at all! Just a little moan from me!

@wanderlustre I've heard people mentioning those. I live in the back arse of nowhere but will be near a boots on Saturday if I still need them by then I'll stock up! Hopefully I won't
