Anyone in TWW? Or TTC in January 2024?

@Ella31 no I'm using the clear blue ovulation sticks so I've had a smiley face yesterday and today

Is anyone else tracking bbt?

We only DTD once and no idea where I am but I think 7DPO. Tested and NG so thinking will try and wait for AF and properly TTC next cycle

Hoping you ladies all get your bfp's. Going to stay on this thread with hope for next month. 😀

@BeautyAndTheBump1

I'm going to try and hold out until 10dpo but I already have a feeling I'll crack before then 🫣.

Currently only 2dpo

@Ella31 Please don’t be worried about your cycle. Your body has been through such a lot ❤️

Im currently 8dpo and I know that’s too early to test, but I did 🙄 got completely stark white looking back at me. So silly! I’ll try again tomorrow.

Just had so many symptoms since ovulation, I’ve convinced myself that I am pg!!

Also should add not to over think it. My only reason for using cheapies as well as CB is 1 - I can see the rise and 2 - clearblue are so expensive.

I use fermometer app and their cheapie ovulation sticks, once the cheapies start getting high I switch to clear blue alongside the cheapies to confirm peak. The app is great, don't get me wrong, but a computer has no idea of how your system works. It's what you see on the sticks that informs the app, so if the stick looks high and is getting higher, go by that

Hi everyone!

Happy new year! This my 2nd cycle. Trying the sperm meets egg method this month currently on CD 9. I came off the pill in October and so far AF are very long, stopping and starting with spotting, light and brown so hoping this doesn't impact things. I did ovulate last month 🤞🤞🤞

Sending lots of luck to all you ladies for success this month!

I should have bought some cheapie ovulation strips to use alongside the digital reader thing, so I could watch the peak drop after.

My app felt like a better map to my CM this month, but we DTD all days around the peak, so fingers crossed.

It's only my first TWW, and I'm already admiring how everyone does it so calmly! I'm so impatient generally, but this is just horrible - hats off to you all!

I’m driving myself mad again.
did a test today 7DPO (I think) BFN!
then went back and something there but evap shadow or whatever to play tricks on me lol! I keep getting feelings in my stomach though and making me get my hopes up. Come on AF! Another 9 days odd 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈

Ignore the app and trust the stick. The app is just guess work and goes off what ever you put in. Once your peak drops, you've ovulated.

I think that's what I have. I've just taken the second day as O day for counting purposes. Though my app says O day should be three days after my Clear Blue static smiley appeared, so I feel it's a little guess work still on my numbers and dates. Oh the fun!

Thanks @HolyMoly24 I cried a fair but today and the last few days. Reality of the loss has hit hard with my period arriving. First period in nearly a year too as I had a chemical before my boys

Do you mean on the cheapie strips? Yes, just keep doing the deed till it drops, should hopefully drop for you by tomorrow

@Ella31 don't worry yourself about it too much, if it's the first since your c section then it's probably just your body needing a bit of time to get back to 'normal'.

My first couple of periods were out of whack after my c section (that's not to say you can't conceive on these!) but then settled again.

Look after yourself now and it'll be time to try again in no time

Does anyone else get peak OPK for 2 days? I always get it 2 days in a row, so yesterday and today. So I guess I ovulate today?

Af reared it's ugly head today. First period since my csection - 9 weeks ago. But worried as that means my luteal phase is 9/10 days, whereas I was 11 prior to my csection. So anxious now that something is wrong and I won't conceive again.

Thanks @Bey I wish I'd started testing after my ds had been born, that way I'd be able to track the tests getting lighter and might be in a better position on when to expect af. I think because it was a straightforward hospital birth I've been left to it since.

So sorry for your loss and wishing you lots of luck and baby dust for a bfp soon! I did a pregnancy test at the hospital after my final scan 2 weeks after miscarriage and it was negative so I'm taking any positive as a pregnancy going forward

@Bey @Gracie1825 I'm in exactly the same boat. I lost my little boy at 16w3d. I'm day 29 since my miscarriage, however I'm hoping to get a bfp at some point. I've not tested yet because a test may show as positive due to still having pregnancy hormones floating around. Good luck on your ttc journey

Sorry for your loss also, its so painful. I had a chemical the cycle before my twins and I just went for it once I ovulated and the result was my beautiful boys, so go for it if you are ready.

I hope so, I'll be 9dpo as of tomorrow, so kind of losing hope but we'll see.

So sorry for your loss 😞

Good luck to you too. I'm worried we may have missed the window but I have literally no clue really! Fingers crossed our periods don't arrive in a couple of weeks

Hi all ttc this month and husband is away for work home in 2 days from now. I’ve been testing ovulation and I’m worried that I’m starting to peak with LH now. Can anyone give their opinion on my tests for the last few days that I’ll attach with a picture. The app is telling me it’s only .76 and low today but it looks so dark the line, I’m freaking out that i will O before he gets home to do the BD 🫣. Ps, the last two tests CD 11 are the same test. I took the picture 15 min apart and the app gave a different result.
Someone please tell me that O will hold off till at least Saturday when hubs gets home
