Anybody else in the same boat??

I'm 5dpo and I've had an ache on my right side through yesterday evening and all today
It's not painful but can't ignore it 🤣

Wondering if anyone has similar or is waiting like me 😊

Have you been holding urine for 4 hours and limiting liquids? My results fluctuate wildly according to how concentrated my sample is. It’s so tricky.

Hey girls,
How is everyone?? We DTD on Tuesday night, and are going to DTD tonight and Sunday, and then that will be me out of my fertile window, and then the spotting the signs can start 🙈🙈. I’ve got like an achey pain in my left hand side when I cough so not sure what that is🙈
We are off for a weekend away this weekend with my parents so hoping that will keep my mind off things for a bit.

Heya!
So I'm on cd 10 and usually ovulate on cd14 but I'm completely negative on opks like not even a shadow of a second line 😭😭💖

@chamena thank you!! We are hoping by doing it more during the fertile window it helps 🤞🏻🤞🏻you have got this!!

chamena · 25/04/2024 14:28

@JM1997 that sounds like you have things very well covered! I think we might only have one shot this month on CD15 so will have to make that one count 😂

chamena · 25/04/2024 14:26

@GSD2024 my little boy is 18 months and I’d worked really hard to cut down on the feeds but the last 48 hours he’s been obsessed so now I’m worried I won’t ovulate. We’ll see I guess! How old is your little one?

@GSD2024 this is the part I struggle with most the wait haha after ovulation I feel like it flies and we get to symptom check and I test like 700x a week lmao!

GSD2024 · 24/04/2024 21:20

@chamena I totally feel you on this one. I sometimes bf my little one if he wakes in the night to resettle him, so was also worried about this. How old is your little one?

@Hannah4850 hey lovely, how are you feeling? I’m doing ok, I don’t mind this bit of the cycle as it’s in my control to some degree! It’s after ovulation I struggle!!

How's everyone doing??

Hey @JM1997 I have a poorly toddler who wants to feed like a newborn baby so hoping that doesn’t throw a spanner in the works! it’s taken a lot to settle my hormones and cycles back down after so many months of breastfeeding.

how are you doing?x

JM1997 · 24/04/2024 16:14

@chamena fingers crossed you’re gearing up to ovulate🤞🏻🤞🏻 keeping everything crossed for you lovely. How are you feeling today??

GSD2024 · 24/04/2024 16:12

Oh really.

i did get a message from my Premom app to say I should test in the afternoon as that’s when most people surge, so will change that from tomorrow. We DTD last night but may not be able to do it until the weekend due to work xx

chamena · 24/04/2024 14:58

@GSD2024 that’s great your lines are progressing. I have v rapid lh surges so have to test 3 times a day mid cycle to catch it. Negative in the morning, darker at lunch and peak in evening then back to negative by following morning!

GSD2024 · 24/04/2024 14:23

Hi @chamena, hope you’re doing ok. Sounds promising 🤞 I’m CD12 but still not got a positive OPK. The line does look to be getting darker though. Xx

chamena · 24/04/2024 10:55

Hi everyone, just checking in. CD 10 for me and opks very faint but ewcm on its way so hoping I might be gearing up to ovulate a day or so earlier than previous months (which would be helpful as DH goes away on CD15).

this is our month 💪

JM1997 · 23/04/2024 22:12

@Hannah4850 I know how you feel, definitely that would be so good if we ovulated straight away!

@Hannah4850 I reckon you’ll ovulate soon, fingers crossed!!
How are you feeling tonight?! I keep getting cramps and have back ache

I hope so!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻
I feel fine tonight had the odd cramp today but I've been so busy with the kids and my appointments today I've barely sat down until this moment haha!
I wish we could ovulate after a week haha I'm so impatient!

@GSD2024 it looks pretty dark, but I don’t think my camera picked it up 🤣 I have added the image below. Let me know what you think. Keep testing, you’ve got this. I’ve got awful cramps again today.

Omg that's so dark I've done mine and it's there but nowhere near dark enough so I'm a few days off easy I think 😭

5dpo today!

@GSD2024 good luck lovely!! You’ve got this 🤞🏻 I am feeling like this could be our cycles. Sending baby dust to everyone x

GSD2024 · 23/04/2024 11:59

@JM1997 oh yeah, it may not be just yet but you’re definitely close.
tbf mine was darker than yesterday so I’m happy with that. Going to try and DTD tonight.

GSD2024 · 23/04/2024 11:47

@JM1997 wahoo!!! Is your second line as dark as the test line?

mine are still negative so will keep testing

JM1997 · 23/04/2024 11:24

@Hannah4850@GSD2024 I have just done my ovulation test and got two lines 👏🏻👏🏻 So DTD will be happening tonight. We also DTD on Saturday, so im hoping that will help as well as there will already be sperm in there ready for the egg. Just text my partner to tell him and he was like I am watching football at 8:30pm, so let’s do it before then. Love a good plan!! How is everyone else feeling??
