TTC March 2024 ❤️✨

@Jess1997 I’ve had it be both to be honest- I’ve never found it to be a reliable indicator, hoping it means something for you x

@Jess1997 I had it today at 8dpo but literally just a patch of yellow on my underwear and then it went white again.

Anyone had yellow cm around 6dpo? I googled it and it said it’s a sign of blood in the uterus so possible implantation but then I read posts on here saying it’s a sign your period is coming? But my period isn’t due for 8 days and it is NEVER early

@YaWeeFurryBastard i was suffering so much in January with a feeling of hopelessness. I didn’t want to book anything and all my friends are currently either pregnant or have newborns so no escaping it. But now I’ve changed my outlook and I’m continuing life as normal - if I have to cancel a plan or change a booking it’ll be exciting and for good reason, and now I don’t feel as if life is on hold so much!

@Dogscanlookup this is me exactly- I wanted to be more relaxed and wait until I would get a strong positive if I am, but feel like I can’t as by the time I would get it from the Dr it could cost me precious time!

@YaWeeFurryBastard I’m so sorry- I do understand the difficulty of trying to plan for the future but not knowing what that will hold

Yes I hear you @YaWeeFurryBastard i feel like I can’t plan anything this year. Friends and family are asking about holidays and I just don’t know. I’m also stuck in a super stressful job but I don’t want to leave yet because they have amazing maternity benefits. Sorry you’re feeling it too x

Does anyone else feel like their life is on hold until they get pregnant? I feel like I can’t plan holidays or change jobs. It’s getting me down a bit this evening as I want this so much and worried it won’t happen for us ☹️.

@Lemonyfire welcome! So sorry about your MC… I’m in the same boat, and was also given progesterone to start taking next pregnancy! It made it worse for me because now I feel I need to test sooner so if I am I can start taking the progesterone immediately! Sounds like you DTD the right times and statistically most successful days so still in with a good chance

I just read the link above and it’s really factual and informative regarding symptom spotting! Might be worth checking out to help relax us all!

Hello can I please join..
I have an 11yr old and 8yr old, had my second miscarriage at the end of January so have been given progesterone if I get pregnant again. It completed naturally so was told no need to wait. I ovulated just over a month later and am now 7 dpo, however we only had sex leading up and on the day of so I’m not too hopeful but am still symptom spotting and tested today- even though I know it’s too early!

It’s good to see I’m not the only one symptom spotting! Today… TMI… creamy CM. I know this can be leading up to AF but I don’t usually get this much. Here’s hoping

@Chaz693 It also took us long about 1.5 years. I was already losing hope that we would get pregnant naturally but it happened.

@emmatcc1 this is our first cycle too. But it took us 2 years last time to conceive our little boy who's now 4. So I think in my head there no chance of us getting pregnant the first cycle this time round even though I know it's possible. X

@Chaz693 Completely understand. I also had sharp pains yesterday evening and today my lower belly feels sore. I also do my bbt evening and it’s always 37.3 but yesterday it reached above 38 and today my morning bbt went up by 0.2. I’m telling myself there’s no way we did it first try to not get my hopes up too much.

7dpo and the closer I get to testing the more I'm convinced I'm out. No reason other than wanting to protect myself. My bbt dropped yesterday but still above base line and it went back up today. First time ever tracking bbt and it's so confusing. Lol! Told myself I wouldn't symptom spot I've got like a heavy feeling in my lower stomach and keep getting twinges of pain today. Also oddly keep waking up at 7am for the past 3 days for no reason. But it's nice to be able to get up while my 4 year old is still sleeping.

No reason for this post other than to get out what's in my head lol! Hope everyone is feeling okay! Xx

Crampy, sore titties… too soon for “signs” but I’m taking them as signs 😂

This trying for a baby lark makes you ever so crazy 🤪

Good luck for everyone testing next week. I’ve had mild cramps since about 6am, so possibly I’m out but I’ll know for sure next week x

@waltzingintomonday My cycle is on the shorter end so I'm due 14 March. I managed to resist early testing last month but it took a ton of willpower and I'm not sure how much anxiety it saved me to be honest. Planning to allow myself to test once a day from 9dpo this cycle and will see if that's any less stressful than waiting...sending lots of baby dust your way too!

Thank you all 💕 it's such an emotional ride isn't it.

@babycandy @CoolSummer89 @Dogscanlookup thankyou for your replies ❤️

@holdmydrinks 10dpo is still on the early side - many women who go on to get BFPs test negative at 10dpo - 34% according to: https://www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test/results-by-day-past-ovulation.php
Fingers crossed for you 🤞

If it helps I saw on another thread a lady got a negative at 12po and then a positive later.

No luck for me this month sadly! Negative FRER at 10dpo so I really doubt anything will change now. Fingers crossed we get some more BFPs with you all 🤞🏻
