Ttc may 2024

Anyone else not 100% sure or scared after losses? I kinda want to give up but I also know I want another baby. Feeling a bit stressed about it all today!

Oh my god….. I cried yesterday because I felt so defeated - with my apps moving my O date which I thought had ruined our chances, turns out it was an implantation dip!!!! Had all the usual AF symptoms but something inside me was persuading me to test. Even used SMU 😭😭😭😭😭 I haven’t told my husband and can’t believe this is real. Going to wait until Sunday to test again as I’ll be over 4 weeks then. HOLY SHIT we’re having another baby!!!

Thank you all
ive got some internet cheapies but when I had a loss last year I didn’t test positive on them for ages, and my hcg was very high. I’ll try a cheapie one next day or so and then see if AF arrives!l (due Friday)

Ah - hide the tests! That's my suggestion 😂 I caved around 6DPO 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

I think I see something very faint! Hopefully it progresses 😊 do you have any pink dye tests?

Hi, I’m 10dpo and waiting is driving me mad so I did a clear blue ultra early not sure if I’m seeing things ! I also feel dizzy and bloated but that’s not abnormal before my period anyway

I had mild cramps from early on in the TWW, vivid dreams, and the day before my first test I was leaning against the kitchen counter and it felt uncomfortable! I had watery cm but really not a lot at all.

Just hoping this one works out 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Smileymom so sorry for your loss. Thank your sharing a little bit about your daughter, she sounds like a gorgeous girl. I’m sure no one would think you are trying to replace her.

@Covermeinsunshinex im no expert either but that NC graph doesn’t look right to me. I would have said your ovulation was day 14. Sorry you are feeling sad about it!

@ThelastRolo20 thats looking like a definite line now woohoo 🥳

@ThelastRolo20 congrats 😁🥰 they're two great lines!! So happy for you. Any symptoms you noticed leading up to the positive test?

I am so unbelievably sorry to hear about your daughter. I hope you're doing ok and wishing you all the best on your TTC journey 🩷

Thanks all, my little girl was diagnosed in April 22 with a brain tumor. From diagnosis we knew her time was precious, it was incurable. She was the most incredible little human being. She didn't let the battle rock her spicy attitude. We thought we were finished when we had the 2 girls but it's taken a long time to understand we have so much more love to give. I'm terrified of the misconception that ok trying to replace her and that's not true. I do worry what other people think and I shouldn't!

On the 3 pregnancies we have conceived very quickly so I'm unsure of what is about to happen. It's been 10 years since my last pregnancy and my eldest is turning 14 in July so a huge age gap. But we're sure she'd love a baby, she's said so.

I'm out of the loop with lingo and methods but I am not due to test for another week. I have had tingling nipples, gas and I napped yesterday for the first time in forever. So I'm looking forward to living in your journey highs for the next week or so.

@ThelastRolo20 absolutely no doubt that that's positive. Congratulations!!🩷🩷 So happy for you.

@Smileymom I'm so sorry to hear of your beautiful daughter. I can't even imagine what you and your family have been and still are going through. 💕

Thank you 🥰 it certainly is! Xx

I'm not an expert but I would say your BBT graph labelled your ovulation at the wrong time. I think that big drop on day 12/13 would suggest you ovulated then. From memory, it drops quickly then rises again when you ovulate.

Personally, I used BBT when I was trying for my 1st and it worked week. Now I have a toddler it doesn't work so well so I'm sticking to OPKs. I always find if I move around too much at night or early morning before testing then the temperature reading isn't accurate (and I'm still up in the night with my 2 year old sometimes!)

@Covermeinsunshinex did you have any cramping/cm on either of those days? I have really dry cm after o xx

Pictures for reference x

@Smileymom im so very sorry to hear this. Such unimaginable pain you are going through/have gone through. I’m so sorry. My heart is with you 🥺

Congratulations to those with BFPs! Wonderful news 💜wishing you happy and healthy pregnancies 🫶🏼

Hi ladies please may I jump in? I’m so confused - I tested using CB digital OPKs which gave me a static smiley on cycle day 13…and I used bbt alongside via natural cycles. Based on my temp this morning, natural cycles is telling that my O date moved from day 14 to day 18! We only managed to dtd 3 times this month as I had sinusitis and then a stomach bug after 😩 I feel so deflated as I am due on my period on Thursday according to Flo and Friday according to natural cycles, and feel so I think the cramping I’ve felt is actually PMS.

We have a 2.5 year old boy who was conceived so quickly, and we never used OPKs, so the struggle is real. Sorry for the rant. Feeling sad this morning x

Thank you, that's so kind. I am so sorry about your daughter, I can't imagine what the last year has been like for you all. Would you like to tell us anything about her? What was her name?

I've had two MMCs but also have a 2.5 year old so I live in hope ❤️ this morning's test is darker so I'm going to leave it for a few days now xx

Hi All, TTC just this month. Mother of 2 girls, lost our beautiful youngest(7yo DD) to cancer last year. So very scared of trying again after 10 years, I have another DD 13yo. I had a mmc 11years ago.

@ThelastRolo20 your pic is very exciting, I can see shadow on top test. Looking forward to hearing a lot of great news sharing sparkly sticky dust, sorry for all who have experienced loss. xxxx

8dpo and was feeling good this month but a BFN this morning - even though I know it's early, I've lost a bit of hope.

How many dpo is everyone else?
