@Wanderingthroughparenthood thank you, I feel like I'm going nuts constantly looking at it!

@MerryMissie thank you too! It feels unreal, so good to see I'm not imagining it. We DTD 7 days over 10 during my ovulation period. The thing is, I was tracking using two different types of digital machine and both failed to show a peak! I thought I hadn't ovulated. This all seems impossible.

MerryMissie · 04/01/2024 10:26

Yes @KittyFantastica I see it!!!!

I'm still very early in my cycle cd8 but dtd ever day so far ha!! I'm hoping I can keep it up for another couple of weeks.... so far its not a chore!!

Wanderingthroughparenthood · 04/01/2024 10:22

I see it!

KittyFantastica · 04/01/2024 10:20

Please tell me someone else sees it and I'm not dreaming?!

I stupidly peed on the stick, not in a cup, so can't do another one. Do you think an early detection digital would pick anything up? I'm approx 12/13DPO.

@LuceNumberTwo just do it 😂 well do a strip one first incase its too early then do the other one tomorrow (will you be 9dpo)

siobhanmt247 · 04/01/2024 09:45

I think im out. Bbt dropped today :(

LuceNumberTwo · 04/01/2024 09:37

And now I've just learnt the digital ultra early tests are coming today 😳

Helppp🙈

LuceNumberTwo · 04/01/2024 08:37

OK I've given myself the fear a bit with all these symptoms & taking that early test.

I don't even want to test Monday.. Because I really think I am pregnant & it's just a wait & see because I've been pregnant before.. I've bled it's been all over 😭 I know I shouldn't think that way but it's really difficult not to think this way

Lovely morbid thoughts of today! Sorry ladies 🙈

I’m out this month.

AF arrived five days early and with a vengeance.

Baby dust to everyone else!

I'm sorry to hear :(.. if I end up getting af next week there will probably be a new thread made for next month

@Peonies94 just keep going, you will get it, I think you have to catch it at the right time, someone told me to test on your second wee not first too. 🤞🏼

@LuceNumberTwo Hope today you’re feeling better. The ttc really takes over!!

@Newmumwales when will you test?

I cant say I feel anything this month - nothing to report! (Last two months i obviously had loads of pms symptoms that i thought was pregnancy ones 😂) another day down! X

Newmumwales · 03/01/2024 23:25

Been feeling twinges in stomach, womb, pelvis… (get confused where) today! I’m minding my own business and then I feel things and I’m like “I’m not symptom spotting I’m being good!!” 😂

@elleaddams hope your heartburn cleared and got it done lol!

Peonies94 · 03/01/2024 22:18

I’ve had 3 flashy smiles now, but have a feeling I’m going to have lots more! Been temping and they are just very up and down! Just trying to DTD every 3 days for now, and hope I get a static soon 🤞🏻!
Hope everyone else is doing okay! Good luck to those in the TWW!

GoldenArrow · 03/01/2024 21:42

@LuceNumberTwo I actually think I have a cut on my cervix tbh. I had it before years ago and they burnt/froze (can't remember) it off. Similar symptoms and seems to be quite bad after sex. Which is putting me off sex :(

Hayl777 · 03/01/2024 21:29

evening all!
So iv been ovulation testing daily after saying "if its meant to be its meant to be, lets just take it easy",
Miscarried an unplanned pregnancy in November and now it's became all consuming that we want this.
Midwife had said that woman can be more fertile immediately after a miscarriage but it was not to be in December.
Had a peak today at CD11 , luckily DTD excessively as on holiday anyway... TMI?!
so I guess i'm now on the two week wait
I have been taking supplements that I read could help increase chances, soy isoflavones and red clover and knocking back the folic acid, has anyone tried supplements with success?

LuceNumberTwo · 03/01/2024 20:55

@Mummysparrow I'm holding out the hope for you🤞🤞 It's so disheartening 🙁 x

Mummysparrow · 03/01/2024 20:52

@LuceNumberTwo I am 11dpo but I had a good line by this point with my pregnancy with my daughter so pretty sure I am out this month

LuceNumberTwo · 03/01/2024 20:45

@elleaddams Fabulous! Good man, knows he's on a promise 🤣 hope that sorts it for you! I couldn't think of anything worse than jiggling about with heartburn..🤦‍♀️ have fun!

@GoldenArrow what do you think.it might have been? I know what you mean, DTD can get a little meh for us if the drive isn't there 🙁

@Mummysparrow I'm sorry to hear, how many dpo are you?

X

elleaddams · 03/01/2024 20:42

@LuceNumberTwo my boyfriend just ran out to get me Rennies and Nexium 😂

Mummysparrow · 03/01/2024 20:41

BFN here so I am just waiting for AF to turn up this weekend and start the cycle again

GoldenArrow · 03/01/2024 20:38

Awk I'm really struggling to have sex this much. I'm a twice a week girl! 3 absolute max. I've not DTD since the strange discharge as don't feel like it, which makes me even more convinced its not ovulation related 🥲

LuceNumberTwo · 03/01/2024 20:36

@elleaddams Rennies?! Gaviscon?! Down a pint of milk?!?!??! Hold yer breath woman & get down on it 🤣🤣🤣 seriously though heartburns the worst!! Hope you get sorted...in both respects

Awwwww why are my moods so up and down. I was totally on a high earlier now I'm just way down again!

I really want this baby 😭😭

GoldenArrow · 03/01/2024 20:31

So sorry @siobhanmt247. Good luck with TTC, hope you fall quickly x

elleaddams · 03/01/2024 19:42

HELP, im due to peak I reckon in the next 24 hours so was planning to dtd tonight but I have the WORST heartburn of my life. Any remedies for how I can get rid of it fast?!

H938 · 03/01/2024 18:06

@Newmumwales it takes some getting used to, I would never know I ovulated quite early if i didnt test! You may still be in with a chance, dont count yourself out yet- mine are always light (even when clearblue has a peak) so who actually knows!!

@siobhanmt247 So sorry to hear about your mum. Sending love ♥️

@LuceNumberTwo okay you are too early so lets just put it down as a practice 🤣 atleast stick it out til Sat (about 9dpo i think for you!)

Newmumwales · 03/01/2024 17:40

I feel really really upset that I’ve misjudged my ovulation and it was yesterday or today by my BBT another forum said but my LH is faint. Really feel like crying. 😭 why is this all difficult! 😞 I’ve only just started tracking so hats off to you ladies who have stuck at it. I’m I’ll at the moment so DTD tonight is off the cards. I need a chat with DP that there’s only a short window to DTD.

@siobhanmt247 sending you so much love my lovely.
