Just want to say how good the boots 5 days early tests are! 10dpo and it’s really obvious in person. As good as first response!

I'm currently having lower back pain and I had the exact same at 5dpo last month ..! I don't want to be hopeful but we should see whether it ends in a BFP!
(I get the same exact pain during my period but my period is due next Saturday so can't be that !) 🤞🏼

Have a good weekend girls !

Cycle 4. I had been very consistent with supplements until the week off and I started them again once I got a positive LH test just incase 🤣. If your interested I was taking

  • COQ10
  • Methafolate
  • Magnesium Glycinate
  • Omega 3 (high strength DHA)
  • Vitamin C
  • Vitamin D
  • Vitamin B12
I ended up with a pill box there was that many 🤣🤣🤣

I've already got a pill box haha. Think I'm going to add coq10 this cycle :)

KT199 · 07/12/2024 09:42

NoisyBee · 07/12/2024 09:38

I am very tempted to have a month like that and not take supplements to see actually what my cycle is like. Or at least don't obsessed about them. So happy for you ! What cycle number was it for you??

@KT199 the no control thing can definitely make things easier ! A little bit lol
Enjoy your weekend ! 🩷

Thank you, you too!! Hoping to go keep myself busy somehow but with this crazy storm forecast not sure what to get up to!

Hey, no if I’m honest I really thought this wouldn’t be the month. I feel like the odds were so against me, I was so stressed from having the internal scan and thinking I maybe didn’t ovulate.. I then ovulated CD19 which is late for me. If anything this cycle I ate worse, skipped meals, stressed and didn’t even take my supplements for almost a week too as I felt after the scan there was no point. I was probably calmer in my TWW on the basis that I was convinced it wouldn’t happen, but I don’t think that affects anything.

Just popped on back on as my period has started to stop now. Congratulations @KT199 !! Anything you tried differently this month that you think may have helped ? So so happy for you :) thanks for all your messages.

AHH @Gemmaemilyx .. looking promising. Keeping my fingers crossed for you

KT199 · 07/12/2024 07:59

That’s exciting @Gemmaemilyx !! Finger crossed everything progresses as it should, congrats 🙌

I keep telling myself to try enjoy the moment and that whatever is going on inside me I have no control over so to let nature take its course and it’s helping a little but also isn’t stopping me second guessing everything 🤣 I had a really weird sharp pain last night, on and off for a few hours just left of my belly button lasting a couple of seconds each time and obviously Google said ectopic. I also keep expecting to go to the loo and see AF 🫠

Heartypandaa · 07/12/2024 07:04

Bless you, it s normal to feel that way.
Yeah that cycle really messed me up! I am doing oky now thank you for asking, decided not to track anything this cycle, such a relief to be honest, taking it slow and easy, day by day 🤞🏻

Gemmaemilyx · 07/12/2024 06:58

@Heartypandaa thank you so much 🥰🩷 I pray!! I wasn’t even that fussed this month but now seeing the positive tests I am more than fussed 🤣

how are you doing? Did you start AF I remember you saying a while back you think you didn’t ovulate/ possibly missed it! Xxx

Heartypandaa · 07/12/2024 06:55

Congrats @Gemmaemilyx ♥️ try not to over think nd dont go to the dark place, get busy, and let your body do its magic. What's meant to be will be. So just let go. 💫💫. Good luck lovely

Gemmaemilyx · 07/12/2024 05:49

Morning 🥰 I have taken a boots and CB and they’re darker this morning (still light mind) which I’ve not seen any line progression in my previous CPs only my children’s pregnancies which is a good sign. Spotting has stopped and only lasted whilst I was on the loo, but I just have an awful feeling it’s going to happen again. If it does I’ll be on the phone for progesterone testing on Monday 🩷

good luck all xxx

@KT199 Will do!! 🥰🩷 hopefully 🤞🏼 it’s certainly more prominent in person, harder to see in the pic! Xx

KT199 · 06/12/2024 19:49

Can definitely see the line @Gemmaemilyx even though it is faint!! You’ll have to keep us all updated x

Gemmaemilyx · 06/12/2024 19:45

going by the first positive opk my CPs were actually 12dpo rather than after peak.

Gemmaemilyx · 06/12/2024 17:57

@Lila34830 @Heartypandaa thank you both, if this doesn’t end the way I hope it to, I’ll definitely ask about progesterone - interesting it’s only from the first positive though your gp has said!

the boots early is a pink dye and positive too, albeit faint 🤣 I’m 9dpo today. My past 2 CPs were 11dpo. So a bit earlier than usual!

Lila34830 · 06/12/2024 17:51

@Gemmaemilyx I can see it too, how many dpo are you ??
Good luck darling I hope this is the one keep us updated 🩷
