TTC June 2024 ✨♥️

@Nataliebella I can definitely see a line on the middle test. Did you test again?

Any cm experts here? I don’t usually get much cm around “ovulation” (another reason I don’t think I actually ovulate), but I’ve got my peak today on CD15 which is amazing for me (usually CD25 on average) with a tonne of ewcm so I’m hopeful to actually ovulate this month. Do you get this CM in the build up or the day of O?

We didn’t dtd last night and scared it’s too late now.

Regretting my chilled, laid back approach this month since I’m nervous that we may have missed our chance 😂 #typcial

Hey ladies I hope your all well an congratulations to whose who are pregnant and baby dust to every one else. I have a question does this look like its a line? I thought i might be due to ovulate but It went darker then light again an now this looks like a line or an I seeing things 🙏🤞❤️ the ovulation tests was yesterday an the day before thanks for listening ❤️

I didn't even get close to a positive on my opks this cycle and I've been freaking out. CD30 today with period due Wednesday and look how high today's tests are! I can only assume very late ovulation. I don't have pcos though, at least that I know of, it seems to be a random one off for me.

Guys I think my temperature is dropping and Natural Cycles has predicted my period will start tomorrow. Feeling so gutted, we’ve been trying so hard since May 2023 and have just had a miscarriage a couple of months ago.

@meggie1tr Are they as dark as they got this cycle? Or just the end of it? I have suspected PCOS and mine always seem to have a faint line like that, but seem to catch the peak earlier.

Am I about to peak soon after my high opk today at CD14?? I have never ever ever ever got a high opk this early, hoping the supplements are working, looks like they are or it’s just a huge coincidence

Just curious what peoples opinions are with these opk's.

I don't think it looks like I've ovulated and my period is due in 5 days so not sure if I've done it wrong or if my PCOS I preventing ovulation :(

Ahhhh congratulations 🥰!!

Awww congrats!!

@RaineyNina perhaps! Fingers crossed for you that you have. My temps have been going haywire with the heat at the moment.

@BlueberryPoppy123 yea I would leave them a little longer. Not too long but enough time that the dye clears up.

I use the timer on the premom app but they do seem to stay pink for long. I got my tests just cheap on Amazon so did wonder if that was why I noticed everyone else's are much clearer. Waited 15 mins+ for them to stop being pink with one (took pic of it after 10) but thought you couldn't read them after longer than that x

I think I may have ovulated early! Surprised as I usually don't ovulate to around cycle day 18, in fact last cycle was day 20! What do you guys think? Will see how the next few days go and see if my BBT stays raised, great if I have as hubby leaves for work tomorrow!

@RaineyNina @Marshmallow99 yea it’s bonkers how much it varies from care board to care board. Someone shared their care board’s guide the other day and they wouldn’t fund treatment for women over 35!

luckily I live in London where people tend to start families later so my care board funds up to 42 (but you get less funding if you’re over 40)

NICE (National NHS) guidelines however are try for a year and then you get tests and then if everything is coming back normal then you try for another year and then if still nothing then you should be offered assisted fertility treatments. If the women is 36 or over then these timescales are halved. But each care board can have their own policy.

i am 35 and have been trying for 6 months but we suspect that my DH might have low sperm count due to a hernia he was born with. So he had been referred for tests, we have to wait 4 months but that’s fine. At least we have got the ball rolling. Trying not to get too frustrated and just enjoy the good bits of it.

Wishing you the best of luck @Marshmallow99 ❤️

8dpo so very early! ❤️

@Livingmydream25 ahh congrats! So exciting!!

@BlueberryPoppy123 if you leave your tests a bit longer are they less pink? They look a bit hard to read at the moment. Attaching mine as a comparison. Today is also O day for me.

i usually test for 2-3 days after my peak to see my levels come down as some people have a second peak. I’m not one of them but just in case!

@Marshmallow99 oh really! Madness, should be the same everywhere 😖 defo keep pushing

@Livingmydream25 congratulations! How many dpo are you?

So I took an ultra early!

@RaineyNina i think it depends on the area you are in as to what is funded. I will definitely keep pushing and getting more investigations done x

As far as I know there's no minimum age to getting IVF treatment, I'm 26 and know of a few people I went to school with have had IVF? I would definitely go back to your GP if you've been trying for over a year x

@pepperminticecream so sorry to hear about your MC. We have been trying for over a year now, it’s getting harder every month that goes by, keep worrying that something must be wrong.

Fertility treatment is so expensive too, my Dr says I won’t be able to get IVF on the NHS until I’m over 35 (I’m 33). Our tests so far haven’t shown anything is wrong but I feel like further investigations need to happen as it’s been a long time now.

we have said we should start saving for it just incase we need to go down that route.

fingers crossed we both get our BFP soon 🫶🏽✨

@Livingmydream25 I see it too!

@Marshmallow99 First month TTC following a miscarriage in April (we got pregnant our 2nd month of trying for that pregnancy). How long have you been TTC?

We will run out when the shops are open!
I've had really sensitive boobs and they have grown a bit. Had some short lived shooting pain 4dpo and a tiny bit of nausea.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

@Livingmydream25 it’s definitely there! try a ultra early digital one as well then it will say ‘Pregnant’ 😍 . Have you had many symptoms? X

@ninaballerina12 congratulations on your BFP 😊. Hope you have a happy and healthy pregnancy.

Also to everyone else that for their BFP’s (apologies - I’ve been trying to stay off but just had a quick catch up)

@Livingmydream25 yep I see that! Fingers crossed for you
