Thought I’d make a new thread for those of us Ttc in March 2024. I know some of us will cross over from end of Feb to March! Wishing everyone all the luck ✨❤️

@emmatcc1 all In sync!

What symptoms have you been experiencing this time round?

Spreading baby dust to all ✨✨✨✨

emmatcc1 · 06/03/2024 17:36

We’re all around the same time in our cycles!!
I’m 11 dpo and af is due Saturday. I have a clearblue rapid coming tomorrow but I’ll try to wait until Friday at least.
I have some unusual symptoms that I also had with my pregnancy so we’ll see soon what the outcome will be.

MinaHarker1 · 06/03/2024 17:32

@Dogscanlookup Thank You for accepting me into the crazy! 🤪

@Chaz693 so exciting hoping that line gets darker and darker for you 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

My cycles are actually really pretty on the button 29 days, so I'll be due AF on Saturday 10th. I ovulated approx the 23rd of Feb (my LH peak was on the 22nd evening so likely the 23rd for OV).

Normally around now in the 4-5 days leading up to AF im doubled over with the dreaded endo cramps and I'm usually really struggling with them but they are soooo mild this month it's just making me think hmmmm? I also dont have the usual (sorry tmi) shooting pains in La vag that normally fire up everytime i go to pee.
Didn't know if any other gals on here had experienced this with endo and had happy positives.

@RW269 re the increase in HR, my friend has had an increase in rhr in all 3 of her pregnancies from really early on!

Mines has also been raised this week but I was putting it down to just being anxious about this weeks symptoms lol 🙈

Chaz693 · 06/03/2024 17:23

@SummerSun24 I'm 10dpo today! So it's still really early. Hoping by Friday it will be much more obvious and my partner won't believe it till it's a lot darker lol! 😂 xx

AF just arrived 😢 3 days earlier than expected and at 11dpo... Seems a bit soon but only had my coil removed early Jan so I guess I should expect it to be a bit irregular.

Is it definitely AF? If it stops tomorrow then I'd test :)

SummerSun24 · 06/03/2024 17:15

@Chaz693 oh can definitely see it more there! Eek! How many dpo are you?

Chaz693 · 06/03/2024 17:08

SummerSun24 · 06/03/2024 16:33

@Chaz693 you'll have to let us know how you get on with your next tests!! Exciting times 😁 hopefully it'll be the start of many 🤞

I've also experienced some light cramping this time round which I don't tend to get with AF but I've many not noticed it before if I haven't been looking for it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Still waiting for the tests to arrive but I did take another cheapy and it's still faint but more noticeable.

Dogscanlookup · 06/03/2024 16:46

@MinaHarker1 hey and welcome! All crazy here don’t worry 😅 roughly when did you ovulate and how long are your cycles? Or are they very varied because of the endometriosis? As they say, you aren’t out until AF arrives!

Has anyone been pregnant before and noticed anything to do with resting heart rate?

This week my rhr has shot up and I’ve had a Google and it’s sometimes linked 🤷🏻‍♀️

There has been a few ladies on previous threads that have went by this, their rhr was elevated so 🤞🏻

Devasted to arrive home and my internet cheapies had not arrived so I won't get to test again until tomorrow night, which in reality is better as I'm 10dpo tomorrow 😂

MinaHarker1 · 06/03/2024 15:33

Also @Chaz693 I can totally see that line!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

MinaHarker1 · 06/03/2024 15:29

Hey Everyone, I'm new here, long time lurker and googler of mumsnet and finally really seeking the amazing support that seems to be always here when TTC. I'm struggling with being able to start a thread on the main website so thought I'd join on here and maybe get some advice and be able to let my crazy tww spirals out without judgment 🙈🤞🏼

Me & Hubby been ttc for 4 months, I've been LH testing so managing to pin point ovulation pretty accurately which is just as well as hubs works away so we're having to plan trips and me travelling with him to time the baby dancing 😂

I'm currently 12dpo, we've been on holiday this week and I started feeling a bit "iffy" a bit of nausea, really tired & quite a bit of heart burn. I've had some light cramping the last 2 days, I should say I have endometriosis so my cramps are normally much much worse this close to AF arriving, so I'm questioning. I took a CB early detection today (not FMU) and was BFN & also tried the boots early rest too which was neg. Has anyone had symptoms at 12dpo but got a neg which has then become a BFP?
Sorry for the big novel, just looking to release the constant overthinking 🙈 the tww is torture!

Thanks all in advance xx

Dogscanlookup · 06/03/2024 15:16

@pleurotus oh I’m so sorry! That’s such a shame, but yes if your coil was only recently removed your cycles may still be working themselves out x
@TTC1990 yay to the flashing smiley! One step closer! And I am not going to reject that 20% offer if I get a BFN! Planning to test tomorrow eve!
@RW269 sorry for the BFN but glad you’re not giving up hope, definitely is still early as you say!
@CharlotteRae welcome! Sorry you’ve been on your TTC journey so long, it’s tiring isn’t it… got my fingers crossed for you

@CharlotteRae fingers crossed for you also. Sorry to hear about your troubles, I hope you get some answers soon.

TTC is so much harder than school made it seem.

Haha you're so right!

CD16 for me, I ovulate on day 18/19 each month. And I always get a dip in my temperature just before. The dip has been today so fully expect to ovulate over the next few days.

4th cycle ttc #1 so really hoping this is our month

Thanks for the help! Fingers crossed for you! I have just tested and negative... il check tomorrow with fmu but not holding out much hope. Have started with fertility investigation with gp but a very slow road!

Hi guys, can I join you? I’m 36, ttc my 2nd child, first daughter is 8 years old, and at the time a complete surprise so it’s frustrating that this time I’m having issues now I’m finally in a secure happy relationship! Been ttc for 14 months now.. really worried about fertility. Currently on 12dpo and waiting for Amazon to drop off some cheapy tests although not holding out much hope as you get used to the disappointment after a while! Fingers crossed for you all this month.
ooh can anyone tell me how to reply to a thread in the app? It only gives me the option in the web browser xx

Got my fingers crossed for you @Chaz693 nice to finally see some excitement happening on this thread 🤞🏼

11dpo for me and a complete BFN this morning. Test wasn't as sensitive as the easy@home ones and was 20mui so I'm still hopeful but probably kidding myself at this point.

Feeling pretty down but there's a lot of external factors contributing to that not least af looming.

TTC1990 · 06/03/2024 12:21

@Dogscanlookup that sounds promising! When are you planning on testing?

It’s not a positive pregnancy test, but a flashing smiley appeared for me today on my OPK which has put me in a better mood than those bloody empty circles!

I have a friend who can get off 20% for Caribbean cruises 🚢 😂?!

RW269 · 06/03/2024 12:17

@Dogscanlookup can I join you on discounted Caribbean flights? 😂

10dpo for me today, negative test booo! Not giving up hope yet though!! How’s everyone keeping?

Chaz693 · 06/03/2024 12:02

I will keep you all updated! So nice to have somewhere to talk about all this with and not feel completely insane about it! X
