TTC Aug 2024

Haven't been on threads for a long while but may as well join in for this month!

Awaiting AF after a BFN today on 11/12dpo. Onto cycle 19....

So I got the smiley face on my ovulation test yesterday. People say ovulation happens around 24 hours after that. So am I counting DPO from yesterday or today?

AF is due on the 16th August for me too!

I'm currently 4dpo- all today I've had this feeling like I'm a few days away from AF and a few twinges here ans there. Is it too early to experience symptoms at 4dpo?

Moving over to August thread the June and July…

still on that same cycle since June as my body is messed up.

on day 73 of cycle with 45, about to be day 46 delay for AF and testing BFN…

I thought the other thread had gone quiet, I’ve just discovered you all over here. Hope those of you who are also in the tww are hanging in there. I’ve fully convinced myself this month is the month, I’m 8dpo and have had lots of light cramps and pinching feelings in my stomach as well as feeling a bit sickly. I’m trying not to get too carried away with myself but it’s so hard isn’t it? Sending lots of luck to everyone else who is waiting patiently or gearing up to try again this month.

I also recognise some of us here from the July thread. Today is 3 dpo and I had a decent rise in pdg on Mira which is looking positive! Baby dust to all of us here. 💙

Phew! AF arrived 7 days late, was starting to worry I wasn't ovulating! Fingers crossed for a successful August cycle😊

@CoolSummer89 we have been trying since may 2023 started out as if it happens it happens and then we started trying properly around December and still no luck but we have had all the tests done to see if anything is going on, we are just waiting the results.

Hopefully happens soon 🙂

There was a TikToker I was following for ages, her partner had a very low sperm count. She got her BFP after 14 cycles, inspired me not to give up hope!

Cycle 9/10 now 😪 Nearly back in the TWW, hopefully this one is the one 🤞🏻

Sending Baby dust to all ✨

Fingers crossed for that third April baby for you! You might have just missed the peak, opks are a bit unpredictable x

Hi all, I am getting the AF aches so I know she is on her way. This cycle has been very up and down, temps zigzagging and symptoms a go-go. I am having a hormone panel done on Monday, so hopefully that will pick up anything weird.

When AF arrives this will be cycle 8 of trying for #1. I am 35 and have very regular cycles, DH is 36 and had one undescended testicle as a child which could be impacting his fertility, but we don't know for certain yet. He has an appointment for sperm analysis in four months (!) so we are just taking supplements and trying our best in the meantime.

I recognise a lot of you from previous threads, fingers crossed this is our month.

(The silver lining of not getting pregnant is I only need to have 3 more unsuccessful cycles to get a premom premium refund for all OPK and cheap pregnancy tests I have bought from them since February 😅)

Cycle one for me. Technically it started in July. AF due 16th August. Hopefully she doesn't turn up. I'll keep you updated.

I'm on 6dpo despite doing up to 5 opks some days I never did see a peak so premom has just guessed one for me apparently.

Is it more likely I didn't ovulate or I just missed it?

It's so dumb but kinda thought this could be our month. My husband's birthday is end of March, my 2 children's birthdays are April our wedding anniversary is also April and then my birthday is May. So I was hoping finally I'd fall this month to have my final April baby. Although it would make for a very expensive month 🤣

But anyway after opinions on if anyone thinks I have any chance of catching this month x

Just about to enter my TWW So here's hoping for a BFP this August!

Thank you. I’ve done another this afternoon which Premom says is ‘high’ but I think it looks like a positive to me.

Mine never want to scan unless the test is on a white background. Always do in a well lit room.

Thank you. I do have the pre mom app but I’ve found it depends a lot on lighting etc. I’ve had more opks delivered this morning so will test again this afternoon 😄

How strange, I wonder if there is a link! I won’t be testing yet as I’d drive myself crazy trying to see a line!

I also wear a retainer which is interesting. Wondering if it’s something to do with that!

I didn’t have any symptoms until I was about 7 weeks with either of mine

When I was pregnant with my first I had all sorts going on with my throat making it harder to swallow and making me feel nauseous to take my retainer out in a morning.. I guess you're probably still a bit early to test!

Woken up with mucus at the back of my throat - 8dpo!! Had a google and a threat from 2015’on another site suggests it could be a pregnancy symptom?? Has anyone heard of this before?
