CD1 entering 3rd month TTC (next fertile window 8th - 17th march)

Hello 👋
been a quiet week or so! Not had much to post about. Been keeping up with this thread though and I look forward to seeing everyone’s positive tests 🤞
I hope everyone is well and I look forward to reading updates

love and solidarity to everyone who found yesterday a tough day.
im now cycle day 12 and opk testing, no positive yet but my app is predicting Friday.
We are having sex every other day. I normally go for every day in the run up to fertile window but end up so exhausted that I’ve lost the will to live by the day after O 😂 thinking I should pace myself a bit more as maybe I’m missing it? Who knows but going to keep going for a few days after my peak this month 😵‍💫

@Ginny2018 don't feel bad if you need to take a month "off" from ttc, your relationship and both of your mental healths are important!

Hope everybody's having a good Sunday?

CD15 for me and got my static smiley! All systems are go, where is that husband of mine? 😆

I really hope this is the cycle for you @Ella31 , you really deserve it x

Yeah the clear blue are SO expensive!! Kind of annoying in boots as well as they are cheaper with your advantage card but I don't particularly want them to know I'm buying that kind of thing and start spamming me with adverts for other stuff 🙄

Hey @MelonSmoothie it did. Full swing. Cycle 4 for me now. I always start the opks the day it ends just for progression. Just the easy at homes though. I use clearblue a bit later as they are ridiculously expensive

Hey everyone, I hope you are all doing ok and sending thoughts to anyone finding today hard. How are you doing today @Ella31 has AF arrived properly?

Mine finished today and I'm CD4 so thinking I start the ovulation tests in about 4 days time?

@Ginny2018 thanks so much. I'm sorry you are struggling with your partner. The only consolation I can give you is, it's reassuring that he's wanting to connect with you and work on each other. Maybe sit down with him and explain where you are coming from. Xxx

Hi everybody :)

Hope you're all doing well!
@Ella31 I've read your story and just want to say that I'm so sorry :( I really hope it happens soon for you!

I'm due to ovulate the 13th but I must be honest and say that I'm not confident for this month. My partner and I aren't in the best mood with each other these days due to a stressful situation at work and we've been fighting quite a bit so I can feel (and he's said) that it shouldn't be our priority to conceive this cycle but instead focus on eachother. However I still really hope there's a small chance it happens anyway, we dtd yesterday and the day before but can't say if we'll do it again the next few days..

Happy Sunday everyone!

I just looked back at my notes prior to my twin pregnancy my lh phase was 10dpo so maybe that's just normal for me.

Definitely not implantation, im 10dpo and blood is red. I'll do the progesterone test next month for sure

AF just arrived ladies and I'm only 10dpo. First month post loss was 9dpo , last month was 11 and today was 10. Is something wrong with me? 😢😢

I'm 4 months post partum since my loss but I thought I'd be pregnant again by now. I hate to sound so self absorbed as I know I'm so lucky to have carried my boys to 30 weeks and give birth to them, I just thought I'd get to bring them home with me 😢 I so desperately want to be a mother again.

Hope everyone has had a lovely Saturday! Cd10 here - no sign of peak here yet on the OPKs. Was Cd11 in Jan and then Cd14 in feb after my chemical so who knows where we will be this month 🤷🏻‍♀️ x

Now in my DPO so confused as flo says ovulation today Premom had me ovulating on the 8th where I had my peak but think I missed the real peak as results said my peak is at 0.83 but now LH is going down.

I don’t really understand the figures and if 0.83 is even a good figure as last month my peak was 1.1

so now just got to wait and see

@MelonSmoothie it's only my second month using them, last month got a negative, seven flashing, missed a day and then the static smiley. Going to make sure I don't miss a day this month so can time things a bit better!

I usually do one first thing then when I get home from work.

@Rosyposy26 oh the apps are confusing I find just doing OPK helps and ignore apps

Morning im
CD 8 and had a high yesterday but missed my peak on the strips but we dtd anyway and probably will for the next few nights. Premom says I’m ovulating today and Flo has me down for tomorrow after it originally said 14th so to be honest I have no idea so just going to dtd.

Hi @Choc29 , fingers crossed for you that it is and you have a good chance!

Sorry timing isn't great for you @YorkshirePeridot how many days of flashing do you usually get before a solid? This will be my first cycle using them... hope the timing works for you! Sorry to hear you have an infection..

Morning all. CD13 here and have had flashing smilies the last three days. Haven't managed to dtd this week due to my infection and I'm away this weekend without my husband so getting a bit anxious. Hopefully ovulation holds off a bit!

Hi @MelonSmoothie thanks for the mention. I'm on CD14 and looks like I finnaly got my peak today!! My cycle last month was a week late so wasn't sure what to expect and premom app was all out of sync because of it. Xxx

Oh gosh @Ella31 that is heartbreaking, I'm so sorry. I was going to say unlucky but it feels like that word doesn't even cover it.

Really hoping this is your cycle (or one very soon) and you have an easy ride as bloody hell you really deserve it.

How are you feeling with everything? Have you got lots of support IRL?x

Going to go with the flow though haven’t dtd the last two nights so hope there plenty inside him! 🤣

we shall see. Then it will be the dreaded few but have a few things planned so hopefully will be easier this time around

Not at all. Its always disappointing when it doesn't happen.

Sort of. I got pregnant week after I got married a year and a half ago. Lost that baby at 8 weeks, had a chemical a few months later and unfortunately lost my twin sons 4 months ago at nearly 30 weeks. Had an emergency section- one boy was stillborn and my other boy passed away 4 days later in nicu.

So I've been technically trying a year and a half but I've had three pregnancies. I've no issues. Mc was random and the neonatal death was due to a rare twin condition. Its unstoppable and just bad luck.

This is cycle 3 since I lost my boys.

Hopefully now you'll have luck soon xx
