2 LH surges in one cycle?

Hey girls 👋🏼 I am so confused! Maybe someone has had something similar happen....

To cut a long story short I usually have around 28/29 day cycles and ovulate on or around CD14.... ✨

I was quite poorly last week, had flu symptoms and have been diagnosed with Strep A and now on a course of penicillin (But thank god I feel better) 🙏🏼

I got what I thought was my PEAK on CD11 last week, I'll attach a photo... this was when I was poorly 😷 it seemed quite early for me 🤔

But I've woken up this morning CD18 and have had a stronger PEAK 🤔

Did my body not ovulate whilst I was ill and now is? Haven't a clue what's going on 😭🤣 Just seems so late for me now 😢

Hey girl! @SunshineAndRainbows6 Peak has arrived for me 🙌🏻🙌🏻.

How are you getting on? Currently waiting for my OH to come home so we can DTD 😂. Even though I am shattered!!!

If this cycle is a no go then I’ll grab some of that cough medicine. Willing to try anything!!

Thanks for all your tips and support!

Happy weekend!! Xx

@TTC1990 How lovely! Yessss 100% agree with the dirty camping side of things! I'm a terrible snob when it comes to that 😭😂 I got a UTI the last time we went proper camping as I couldn't use the bathrooms properly 🤭

Ooooh amazing! Yesss we started on CD10 with the SMEP plan! Sounds like you've got it down to a T as well.... pun fully intended, love that! 😜 Glad you've got your fertile CM too! Hopefully your PEAK arrives soon 🙏🏼

Soooo I tried tablets similar to this stuff a couple months back, BUT they didn't seem to make a difference and had a lot of other ingredients in.... this one has the stuff we need and only that ingredient 🤔 So we shall see! Everyone's opinions different on how often your meant to take it etc... but I've been doing 10ml once a day since CD10 (your meant to take it around 5 days leading up to your ovulation) I'm going to continue it today, may even take two lots one in the evening too! Then stop after tomorrow so I've covered the whole window! Like I said before I am willing to try bloody anything nowadays 😂

Keep me posted on when you hit your PEAK, hope your having a good day your end too! 😘

@SunshineAndRainbows6 Good morning and happy peak day!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

I think the easy@home ones work well and are certainly a lot cheaper! I found the clear blue a bit frustrating as youre only meant to test ones a day, and I think I peak all of a sudden, so it wouldn’t catch that and then be stuck on a flashing smiley!

Sounds like you’ve been smashing it (no pun intended!) with the BDing! We have also followed SMEP (started on day 9 but almost). I’ve not reached peak yet, but expecting it later today or tomorrow 🤞🏻. EWSM has started!

Oo tell me more about the cough mixture! How many times a day do you take it? I tried with Benilin one month but just kept forgetting to take it!

We were at the IOW festival. We live over here so easy for us just to pop in and not have to do the full dirty camping experience with a little one!!

Hope you’ve managed to get the mortgage sorted. Houses can be more stressful than TTC!!

Will keep you posted on peak and then we can live through the dreaded TWW together 😬 xx

SunshineAndRainbows6 · 27/06/2024 08:27

@TTC1990 Hey hun 👋🏼

Ooooh sounds like you had a busy one too! How fun with the festival though, which one was that? I bet your son loved it, even though I can imagine how stressful that was 😮‍💨 Crowds and a toddler do not mix well 🤭😂

So I ended up leaving the CB tests this time round, we are finishing off my easy@home strips and the Pre Seed.... I've also jumped onto the English version of 'Mucinex' for this cycle 😂 It's a cough syrup from Boots if there's one local to you 👌🏻 Lorrrddd I deffo have more fertile CM this month! Not sure if it's because I've been trying to drink more water or if it's genuinely worked from the medicine 🤔 We shall see!!

I'm on CD14 today, so we are both in sync again.... I've just gotten my PEAK this morning.... We did the SMEP method as well this time, so will BD tonight and then for 3 more days in a row 👌🏻 I think we've managed to time it well so far!

I hope your weeks going ok, my minds been elsewhere trying to sort out our re mortgage, so that's helped take the pressure off a bit! I'm glad you've managed to distract yourself a little as well 🙏🏼

Let's hope this is the month for us both ✨ Keep me posted on when you hit ovulation too 🥰

Morning @SunshineAndRainbows6 !

Also sorry for the radio silence. I’ve been at a festival this weekend so I’ve been in recovery mode!! We took our son in for one day, fun but stressful supervising him in the crowds!

How are you? Did you go for it and buy the CB opks? What cycle day is it for you?

I’m CD12 and just starting testing my LH. Usually start earlier but I’ve been so busy it hasn’t been on my mind as much. Which is actually quite nice!

Hope your week is going well and work is OK! I’m off today as I have some friends coming to stay with their little ones.

Let’s keep the manifesting going 🙏🏻!! Xxx

Morning @SunshineAndRainbows6!

Ahh I’m sorry to hear AF has arrived 😔. Although I kind of find it refreshing when you’re back to ‘cycle day 1’, then the hope can start again 🤞🏻. Mine came yesterday…we go again! This will be our 7th cycle 😰. What will this be for you? Love that, coffee and a donut!! I’m on my second coffee this morning already. As soon as my period end the guilt hits and I go back to decaf!

Ahh I used to live in West Sussex, but more Hampshire way towards Chichester!

The clear blue digital was really good when I used it. Although I had one month where I only got a flashing smiley, never the static which meant ‘peak’, and then that confused me more than the cheap ones!!

I don’t really know how often to DTD (soz TMI) with lower sperm count now?! If I don’t get pregnant this cycle, I’m going to be on my period for my holiday which is annoying!

At least you have events to look forward to like you say, I always find the option to be able to drink when you have things is a silver lining!

Hope you’re having a good weekend whatever you’re doing! I’ve been up at 5:10am with my son, then doing a park run in the rain. Wild weekend for me 😂.

Manifesting our cycle this month! We can go through the whole ‘is my real peak’ again together!! 🙈 xx

Morning lovely @TTC1990 👋🏼

Sorry for the radio silence, we had such a busy weekend, plus this month when AF hit it really got to me 😞 Feeling a lot better now though, onwards and upwards 👆🏼 CD6.... now planning on what approach to do this month! Still can't wrap my head around the whole 'have unprotected s*x and you'll get pregnant' malarkey they used to throw at us in school.... then here's us planning for a baby and not getting anywhere 😭🫠😂 Gotta laugh about it otherwise I'd cry!

How are you feeling? How was your weekend? ✨

Blimey what a small world ayyyee! Chichester isn't that far from us 🥰

I'm still debating whether to get the clear blue ovulation sticks 🤔 not sure if I'm wasting my money as I know the LH strips are just as good 🤷🏻‍♀️ I feel like I'm just trying to grasp at straws 😂

In regard to DTD.... it's so hard isn't it.... especially when it's all planned, it takes the fun away and also puts pressure on the men! We've tried all sorts this end.... one month we DTD for a solid 10 days in a row.... I felt so sorry for the hubby 😭😮‍💨😂 But I think our plan is to follow SMEP this time.... plus maybe use some Pre Seed which we've got leftover from last month, can't hurt right 🤷🏻‍♀️
Have you tried SMEP before? What do you guys usually do?

Sounds like you did more productive things over the weekend than us 😂 Good for you for getting out running 🏃‍♀️ I can't even run to the fridge without getting out of breath 😭😮‍💨😂

Hope your days going ok so far, school run done my end ✅ now getting set up for work 🤢

Looking forward to going through this month with you! We've got this 💪🏼 Manifesting our babies ✨🌈

Ahh I’m so sorry to hear the BFP hasn’t come. I felt like I saw something on that last one too!

10DPO is still early so don’t give up hope! I’m 11DPO according to Premom. AF due on Friday. I get to this stage though as just want her to arrive so we can get on with it though!

Ohh tell me about it, everything is just so expensive! We do have savings to do IVF, but that wasn’t what I was expecting them to be used for!

I think there is no harm is getting your OH to take something! I also take coq10 which is apparently good for improving egg quality. Just going to keep going! We have a couple of holidays next month so trying to not overthink it and just see where it takes us (easier said than done!!)

What a small world!! Our nearest fertility clinic is Complete fertility in Eastleigh. Not sure if that’s near you? It doesn’t have great reviews though, but that’s who our surgery work with, so testing has been through them.

Let’s keep each other posted and keep the hope and support alive! Xx

Hey lovely @TTC1990 Sorry for the late reply, been a manic week with work 🥵 I'm glad your doing ok 👌🏻 any sign of AF!? Mine came this morning 😞 I've had a good cry, grabbed myself a massive coffee and Oreo donut on the way home from the school run today, going to stuff my face with a tonne of comfort foods and then try to stay positive for a new cycle 🙏🏼 Easier said than done 😭 But we've got a few events coming up which I'll be able to have a drink at now, so got to think of the positives 🍻

Ooooh sounds like you've got a good month planned also, are you going anywhere nice!? ☀️ I'm so glad to hear your getting the testing done through a clinic first and it's not costing you an arm and a leg, it's nice you've got that savings as back up, but like you said if you can do it without chipping into that, then you've got that to use on something else later down the line 🥰

I haven't heard of that place but had a look on Google maps and it's about 2/3 hours away from us I think 🤔 We are West Sussex 🥰

Going to look into more supplements this month and maybe try out the 'Clear Blue' ovulation sticks to see if that helps 🤔 I've heard good reviews on them, but I'm sure the cheapy sticks do the same thing! I'm just willing to try just about anything now 🙏🏼

Hope your doing ok 😘

Morning lovely! @SunshineAndRainbows6

How are you? Have you had your BFP yet?!

Thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate it!

My OH is sending another sample off to look at the possible infection. I’m booked in for bloods beginning of July. Like with anything there is a wait, so we are just playing she waiting game! We are based in the UK on the south coast. How about you? We are already with a fertility clinic but accessing investigations through the NHS. I’m pleased I did do this when I did now!

I’m 34 so not old old but also not young in the TTC world! How old are you if you don’t mind me asking?

I’ve got my partner on supplements and I’m continuing to take mine. Going to take control of what I can! I have been scrolling TilTok and it has been really helpful - thank you!

Really hope you have had good news! I tested yesterday and got a BFN but AF not here yet! X

Morning hun @TTC1990 Awww thank you for the well wishes but nothing to report my end, I'm so down in the dumps with it all now 😞 BFN this morning again... apparently I'm 10 dpo according to my app, but I thought I was more 🤔 so I guess I still have a chance, but hated seeing that vvfl the other day for it to be an evap... 😭

How bloody weird is that, we are also UK and south coast 😂 I'm 29 this end!

You guys seem like you have a solid plan and I'm glad things are being investigated for you! Just a shame it's all a waiting game again 😔 Unfortunately that's usually the way with the NHS! Everything gets so expensive when you go private, especially with the cost of living at the moment! We've just remortgaged and it makes me feel sick 🤢😭😂

Feel like I might dive into the world of supplements for next month and so on.... I've been taking folic acid and Vit D since both losses, so nearly over a year now 🙏🏼 But the hubby isn't on anything 🤔 so may be worth a look into it!

When is AF due for you? Hopefully we are late bloomers 🙏🏼 I think I'm due on either Friday or Saturday... I have that gut feeling she's on her way.... but I can pray she's not ✨💜

Hey @SunshineAndRainbows6 how are you this morning? Just checking in as we had some news yesterday, but not good news 😢. My OH semen analysis came back and it’s only 3.5! I’ve been reading online and that is apparently quite low. I’m now feeling defeated! I thought the reason it was taking longer was because of my age…

He has been taking supplements for the past month so we will keep going with them. My doctor is sending him for further testing as they also picked up ‘possible signs of infection’ (although she reassured us on the phone this wasn’t STI related).

We had a chat yesterday and have decided to use the rest of this year to try naturally but also explore the IVF route for 2025. I may be completely over reacting but I just need a plan in my head! What I can’t understand is we conceived our son on the second cycle so easily!

Sorry for over sharing, but obviously we haven’t shared this with any of our family and friends (OH doesn’t want to), so it all feels a bit isolating.

Hoping you have some more positive news this weekend! ❤️

Morning @TTC1990 Oh wow, bless you! I'm so sorry 😔 not the news you were hoping for.... I don't really have any advice as we've never had testing like that done.... what are the next steps, did they say?
Try not to panic, I am sure there is a way to boost sperm quality etc.... I'm not sure if your on TikTok, but it might be worth having a search on there, I've seen couples talk about vitamins etc.... that help boost sperm levels 🙏🏼 I know it's not impossible to get the levels back up in a lot of cases 💪🏼
How old are you if you don't mind me asking? Please try not to let it get you down 🙏🏼 Having a plan sounds great and it looks like you've both spoken in depth about it all and have come up with a good plan 🥰
Are you UK based? I know there are options with IUI/IVF which may be free 🙏🏼

I'm all good this end, got another vvvfl this morning.... I'll attach a photo (even the hubby said he could see the line) but I'm trying not to get my hopes up as knowing our luck it will just be an evap or something 😞

(Excuse my manky nails, I was repotting a plant this morning 🪴🤭)

God knows what DPO I am... going off my app's I think I'm 8 dpo 🤔 who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️

Try and enjoy your MIL's 70th 🎉 Happy Birthday from me 😃

Always here if you wanna chat 💬 I know how isolating it feels when you can't speak to anyone about it 😘

Morning! Oh it was a challenge for sure, my washing machine has only just caught up from the sick episodes!! Luckily I was ill after he was better and Cocomelon was our saviour 😂.

I’m eagerly waiting your FMU test this morning!! So I actually think I’m going to wait until I’m 10 DPO. It’s my MIL 70th this weekend and we are hosting a party. I just have a feeling it’s going to be negative and I don’t want to be disappointed so I think I’ll wait! Saying that I’ll also probably cave 🙈. I will let you know when I do! Xx

@TTC1990 Christ.... sounds like a nightmare! Glad you had Cocomelon to help 🍉 I can still sing half those songs from when my son watched that 😭😂

You wouldn't believe it.... My stupid ass woke up at like 5am, stumbled to get a glass of water and have wee..... that's right HAVE A WEE!!! Didn't even clock that I needed to take a test 😭😂 So I'm afraid there was no FMU test 😞 Of course I then tested with SMU and nothing was there.... I think I just had line eyes 👀 yesterday!

I'm going to try and hold out too... Will still test everyday.... probably in the evenings with cheapies too!

Sounds like you've got a busy one planned, try to enjoy it no matter what the outcome! I know it's easier said than done, but let's keep the faith 🙏🏼✨🥰

Ooo this is all sounding exciting! I have zoomed in and I potentially see something there?! It is so so hard on a pic though! Are you 6dpo today? Please keep me posted! I love hearing positive stories, gives me hope!

You now have me curious to test 👀 xx

Oh amazing, you've got more help now too then! God being ill and looking after a poorly child solo must have been super hard 🥵 Glad your on the mend ❤️‍🩹

Yeah it keeps jumping out on me, but I dunno if it's just my line eyes from starring at it for so long 😭👀🤷🏻‍♀️😂

I reckon I'm more 7 dpo from my first peak and ovulation pains 🙏🏼 But who knows, only time will tell ✨

Will deffo keep you posted, please do the same! Yes start testing...... Will you wait till 9dpo or start testing earlier? 😉

@SunshineAndRainbows6 can't see it on that test but it could be the photo. Have a wee on an LH stick instead - if that's a strong result much more likely to be a positive as the ovulation test will pick up HCG too.

Thanks @Springadorable 🙏🏼 They always come out blurry on here 🤔 I've done like 5 of these today and they've all had this vvvvfaint line, so it's either a dodgy batch of tests or maybe the start of something 🙏🏼

I'll keep you guys posted! Going to do one with FMU 🌈✨

Hey @SunshineAndRainbows6 ! Sorry for the delay…my son got a sickness bug (sick in every single bed in the house) then I went and got it 😫. Can’t believe our luck this month!

I feel like it will be a miracle if I’m pregnant with all the illnesses, but holding hope!

Sounds like you’ve been through a lot! Always good when you can remain positive though. Stress is good for no one!

I did get another surge on CD17, but it was a bit lower than my previous ‘peak’. My BBT has been all over the place since being ill. I also haven’t been consistent with tracking it, so I’m a bit lost with this cycle. Pre mom is saying 6dpo today so I’m going to go with that! Sounds like we are the same? Are you going to test, if so when? I usually wait until 9dpo!! X

Oh bless you 😞 God it's so hard when they are poorly, especially sick 🤢 then for you to get it too after being ill already! I feel so sorry for you! Are you feeling a bit better? 🙏🏼

How strange is that, our bodies are deffo on a weird one this month 😭😂 To be honest, with what we've been through I feel like it's a given 😆

So we DTD at all the 'right' times and used Pre Seed for the first time this cycle... we've used conceive plus before with no luck, so thought we'd try this one ☝🏻

So hear me out.... I would have to be super super early but I've been getting slight vvvfl's on my easy@homes today! I've probably got major line eyes 👀 but this is the one I've just taken..... can you see anything!? 🙏🏼 🌈 ✨

I usually wait till around 8/9 dpo, but I'm such a POAS addict that I couldn't help myself and got into the cheapy stash today 😂

@SunshineAndRainbows6 Thank you. She was very understanding! Starting to feel a bit more human as the day goes on.

So I use my Apple Watch temp. I just wear it at night in sleep mode and then it gives me my temp in the morning! So much easier as I was always forgetting before!

I’m so sorry to hear about your loses, I can’t even begin to imagine. An ectopic too, you are so strong for getting through that! How long have you TTC?

I have a son who is 19 months and he was conceived very quickly. Struggling a bit, on cycle 6 now. I know it can take up to a year but seems such a long time to me! X

Aaaah I'm glad you're feeling more human, that was me yesterday! Had a bath, washed my hair, did the fall works and felt like a brand new person 😂 Deffo felt more human!

Oooh ok, that sounds like less stress than the thermometer temping, I just know I'd have to get up to get him a drink or just forget in general 🤣

Yeah it's been a rollercoaster to say the least, I'm trying to keep the positivity for 3rd time lucky 🍀 But it has been so hard, I'm just trying to take each day as it comes! They did say our chances are lessened slightly with the one tube, but I'm trying not to focus too much on that! This will be our 4th cycle.... 🤞🏻

We fell fairly quickly with our DS too, it was a straightforward pregnancy etc.... I was then diagnosed with arthritis and had to be put on all these horrible medications, so it stopped us trying for our second until last year.... not the age gap we really wanted, but my health had to come first 😞❤️‍🩹

Keep the faith, maybe with this weird cycle we are having then it may bring us some extra luck 🍀🤞🏻🥰
