I have searched and can’t find a thread for anyone who’s Ttc this month!
I’ll be onto month 4 since I had a mmc of trying to conceive! I won’t lie when AF showed yesterday I had a full blown meltdown about it and felt like I would never get pregnant when in reality 3 months really isn’t that long!
I am very lucky to already have 2 wonderful little boys age 7 &3 but really would like a 3rd to make out family complete!

@Objectiontime Congrats!!

@Marshmallow99 I'm sorry about that. Fingers crossed for next time.

I just got my LH surge on CD 15 (yesterday); so now my two week wait begins. This is try #3 for me (although the previous two were not well timed and I was still coming off BC pills).

Marshmallow99 · 27/05/2024 13:28

Well AF has arrived, see some of you over on the June thread 😊

CSmith1 · 26/05/2024 00:27

@Marshmallow99 im keeping everything crossed for you, some good news would be lovely!

@Objectiontime huge congratulations!! Keeping everything crossed for you that it sticks. Please keep us updated!

I'll be heading to June now so best of luck ladies with this month, hopefully you get your May BFPs but if not see you over on the June thread x

@Objectiontime @Jessb2021a congratulations guys amazing news 😊

this morning I had very light pink spotting when I wiped, I thought AF was here but I have had nothing since. I’ve had cramping on my right side on off this week.. tests are still negative. So will have to sit tight and see 🤞

how is everyone doing? Xx

Congratulations those who've had positives!
I poas Tuesday don't know why not even due on til this Tuesday but hate waiting for my period. My tummy's been achy the last couple of days like it's coming early. No pregnancy symptoms in the slightest to even trick me to think I got it this month. Only month one for us though. Forgot how much I hated this waiting when trying to conceive x

Thank you for your congratulations BlueberrgPoppy123. The wait is pretty awful. Wishing you luck.

Got my BFP today. Just hoping this one makes it through. Good luck everyone x

InevitableWithdrawal · 24/05/2024 12:47

@Jessb2021a how exciting! Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼

Jessb2021a · 24/05/2024 12:23

Definitely tested far too early and now I'm trying not to get too excited... by my calculations I'm only 7dpo but maybe I got that wrong

Jessb2021a · 24/05/2024 12:14

@lavafield Thanks for the advice. Turns out it might have worked after all. I must have ovulated earlier than expected! I really hope so because I don't think I can take the stress of trying to conceive again Grin

Jessb2021a · 24/05/2024 12:10

I THINK I might be pregnant....

I was determined not to test until my period is due. But I must have ovulated early. Or the test is wrong.

I randomly bought a pineapple yesterday and thought why not give the pineapple core method a go. I’m doing 3-7 dpo.

Chocolate4 · 23/05/2024 12:29

@jellyfish2 I am 11dpo today. I feel the same, and every time I convince myself that next month I'll just ignore my calendar or test only of AF is late.

jellyfish2 · 23/05/2024 11:57

@Chocolate4 thanks. How many dpo are you? It's so hard resisting to test, I wish I could just wait for my period rather than torture myself.

Chocolate4 · 23/05/2024 11:50

Sorry to read about the bfn today @Marshmallow99 you are not out yet.
Let's wait and see. I'm 11dpo today and AF due Sunday too.

@jellyfish29dpo is still very early and even though you had a bfp last time at this stage, each pregnancy can be very different. Fingers crossed!!

I tested yesterday with Clear blue, had a very faint line but was hours after. I def should have discarded after 10 minutes it but couldn't help 😂

I haven't tested this morning as I haven't got any left. Will receive some this afternoon.
Still cramping and worrying it could be endometriosis as it started at 3-4dpo. Never had cramps or ovary pains this early, it usually starts 5-7 days max before AF.

We'll see...

jellyfish2 · 23/05/2024 08:50

@Marshmallow99 it's so hard. I'm googled so much and it's just all consuming that it's depressing. Hopefully we get late BFPs 🩷
I also checked my Fitbit and my resting heart rate has remained consistent in mid 60s whereas when I was pregnant before it had jumped up to early 70s at around 6dpo. That also makes me think it's not my month.

Marshmallow99 · 23/05/2024 08:40

@jellyfish2 its so hard isn’t it, I say every month just wait for AF to show before testing. Currently googling ‘11dpo BFN then got BFP’ To make myself feel better but equally don’t want to give myself false hope.

I think there would be a faint line by now at 11dpo 😔

fingers crossed for us but if not there’s always next cycle 🤍

jellyfish2 · 23/05/2024 08:19

I stupidly did a test this morning at 9dpo and negative 😞 I don't think this is my month unfortunately. I got a positive last time at 9dpo (although it ended in MC).

Marshmallow99 · 23/05/2024 08:14

I think yesterday was a faulty test as today it’s BFN. Pretty sure I’m out this month, AF is due to arrive Sunday 😔

QuirkyJadeSwan · 22/05/2024 21:58

Marshmallow99 · 21/05/2024 15:53

@QuirkyJadeSwan I am also 33 ttc for 1st, I know a lot of ladies in their mid-late 30's even early 40's who have conceived quickly so try not to worry about age 😊

@Rycbar oh my goodness congratulations!!! how wonderful!! how many DPO are you?

Thank you! I am happy to hear of other women my age looking to start a family.

Lisa3192 · 22/05/2024 20:17

Hi everyone! I have two kids now #TTC3!
I am on the second month of trying. I am 2 dpo today!! Feeling positive this month!

InevitableWithdrawal · 22/05/2024 16:42

@Marshmallow99 ahh fingers crossed it’ll be darker by tomorrow morning!

I’m out for this month, AF has arrived so I clearly have just had a weirdly short cycle. I’ll chalk it up to it only being my second cycle since coming off the pill and hope things straighten themselves out over the next month 😅

Marshmallow99 · 22/05/2024 08:46

@InevitableWithdrawal i am around 10dpo today, I will try again in the morning 😄, hoping it’s not a false positive! That sounds positive to be spotting 5DPO, maybe you ovulated 1 day earlier?

@Rycbar oo which app do you recommend, I will have a look today 😊
