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!

@ttcjourney20001 Which test is that? You also have to consider you didn’t take the test with fmu, maybe tomorrow would show more clear. I used to take those cheap one step tests and never got an evap or a false positive and I took a ton of them.

It's a 1£ cheap test. It's what I tested with with my MMC, so I trust it but not sure what to think of it

I'm doing ok. Day 9 today and my ovulation tests arrived today. Getting some ewcm but it's a bit early to be entering my fertile window 🤔 this cycle feels soooo long 😢

They really do drag don't they ❤️ what day do you normally ovulate?

@ThelastRolo20 Sorry I completely mixed up everyone, I forget which thread I’m on and who I’m replying to.
Constipation is one of the most common pregnancy symptoms.
I know realistically they say it’s impossible to have symptoms before around 10dpo but I feel like so many get them way before 10dpo.

I don't know how to wait a few more days to find out if lines get any darker. Feel like I'm driving myself crazy. I've had a headache the last couple of days where it feels like there's pressure on my brain, and there's a dull ache behind my eyes that feels like I've been filling my eyeballs back for hours so it's straining, never had this before

It's impossible to keep up 😂 I constantly ask people the same questions over and over again

How are we all feeling?
I feel like I’m at the start of my ttc journey again and symptom spotting is through the roof.

@ThelastRolo20 I’m due on Monday.
what about you, I think you said you’re around 9dpo right.

No I'm only 3DPO but VERY gassy (sorry 😂) and constipated with some regular cramps. Obviously this is 99.9% ridiculous but it's fun to dream! I'd be far more convinced if I was 9DPO!

For all my early symptom spotters, a peer reviewed study in 1997 did find that in women who conceived there was a steeper increase in progesterone in the early stage of the luteal phase... So it might not all be in our heads 😂

Oh my could that show in a bbt chart? My temps have been kind of on the high end.

ThelastRolo20 · 30/04/2024 19:38

@emmatcc1 that sounds promising! When is AF due? X

emmatcc1 · 30/04/2024 19:36

@ThelastRolo20 I keep on getting sharp pains in my uterus and I’m going to wee quite a bit. Also last night I had a very specific dream that I rather not mention and I only had this when I was pregnant, I told the ladies I was in a due date group with and they also experienced it (definitely one of the weirdest pregnancy symptoms)

@ThelastRolo20 I’m 8 dpo. I won’t be testing because I have no tests, and I’m not making the same mistake as last two cycles when I ordered clearblue tests for them to be negative. I’m tracking bbt and for me that’s like a pregnancy test because my temps drop around 2 days before af.

Very sensible 😊 I've never heard good things about clear blue. What symptoms are you having? I'm already symptom spotting at 3DPO which is impossible 😂

@ttcjourney20001 you're better than me, I'd be POAS first thing in the morning 😂

I just really wanna believe there's a line there. I don't have it in me to wait a few more days 🫶🏼🙈 sending you good luck xx

@ttcjourney20001 I feel like I can see a super faint shadow, hopefully the start of something!🤞

I hope it develops into a stronger line. Could be an indent at the same time.
I'll test again in a few days if I can wait that long 🫶🏼xx

@Bb542 @TicklishDreamer thanks both. So nice to have people in a similar boat timing-wise! I know the feeling lol I’m like that with pregnancy tests, can’t help it!

@TicklishDreamer ooo exciting are you trying anything new this month?

ThelastRolo20 · 30/04/2024 17:49

@ttcjourney20001 there is a shadow there but it's not clear enough to say for sure, could be positive or an indent. I'm afraid you'll have to wait until tomorrow to test again 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Officially in my fertile window from tomorrow all signs pointing to gearing up to ovulate and I’m so over it already! 🙄 just ready to be at the end of the TWW!

@ttcjourney20001 im not very good at seeing lines/knowing if they are indents! I will only test using a digital after missed period because I can’t do with the confusion! Hopefully someone else will help you!

@soymilknosugar welcome! I'm also not OPK testing this month so we'll see how that works out 🤞🏻

@emmatcc1 so glad to hear he's doing better x

Help everyone!! I ovulate early in my cycle, my periods not due for another 9 days but I think I'm around 10/11dpo. Ttc after miscarriage in December 2023. Took a test this afternoon and the results are throwing me off. Can I get some help? Indent or a vvvvvv faint line?
