THE DINO CLUB #1

Just had a call from the GP and along with my low iron, folate etc I also have BV 😩 possibly the cause of the chemicals! She wants to see me face to face tomorrow though so hopefully get things moving 🤞🏼

I got an evap line this morning and my heart almost bounced out my chest 😅😅 - but I flooded the test strip so I knew it defo wasn't a BFP - I even did a test with the same urine straight after and then a 6 day's early one tonight and both stark white but I stg for that one moment I think I stopped breathing 😆

7DPO today, had some faint tugging feeling but I always write these things off as AF symptoms.

Hope everyone is well! 😊🩵

Didn't DTD at all during fertile week.
Was so tired.
But now I'm just so annoyed at us for not even trying.
I'm upset now because again another month goes by of missed opportunity.
Now I'm questioning myself what's wrong with me, it's only one day we need to hit to conceive and I can't even manage that!
Urgh frustrated.
Sorry to vent.

Fingers crossed for some Christmas joy!!!

Im on cycle day 23 and due on Monday/Tuesday is so the urge to test is real! Slight cramps the last few days but could be imagining those!! Hopefully I’ll manage to wait out till next week to test.

Hope everyone has exciting weekend plans!

Awwww!! I’m glad to hear your feeling better! Sometimes emotions can get so overwhelming and hard to control. Fingers crossed we get some more BFP’s this month eh🤞

Ah I feel you!! My ovu was CD19 and it honestly felt like an eternity to the point I’m now more relaxed that usual in my TWW 🤣

I’m good, trying to keep myself busy and distracted 🤣 got the least symptoms I’ve ever had post ovu even though I’m only 5DPO! Not any bloating or anything!!

@Lila34830 glad you’re feeling better 😊 the wait is the worst. My peak was pushed back 3 days due to my CP, wonder if yours will be the same or later like me!
currently 1dpo, hope you get your peak soon 🥰

Afternoon Dinos

How are we all doing today? 😊

This happened to me this cycle, I usually peak around CD 16 and my LH levels raised and dropped all over the place and eventually surged and peaked rapidly 3 days later than predicted on CD19, I was even ready to stop testing but I'm glad I didn't so keep with it if you're still testing, it could just be a late ovulation! 🙃

Hey girl, maybe you have missed it but it’s not that important knowing when the peak was/is if your DTD regularly you’ll still probably have a chance of landing it least once in the fertile window.

It does look like your LH was either starting to raise or starting to decline again on CD19 but may also just have been a normal fluctuation 🙂

Hi.

I've been mad busy at work and so have kind of got side tracked only been testing once a day the last 3 days so I'm convinced I've missed my peak.

Although historically been peaking CD17, 19 and 20 so I guess maybe still chance???

Can't believe I took my eye of the ball. But maybe I needed it!

Yeah I have no idea which is more reliable 😂 abit annoying really, makes knowing when to test quite difficult but I did say I’d hold off so maybe that’s a good way to prevent it!

yes fingers crossed for you too ☺️

Interesting ! From looking at the temps I would still say ovulation happened CD17 but I'm definitely not an expert 🤣 Either way I still think you DTD enough around fertility windows.. fingers crossed

Must be my temp data 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ll put a picture below, can definitely see the upward trend over the last few days so it does make sense, but just wish it didn’t move 🤣

Ah, that sounds promising for you!!! Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞. Hahaha, yes we can try but if temptation wins then so be it 😊

Oh wow ! What caused it to move.. I didn't know that could happen once it was confirmed ? I'm 5dpo today and had a bbt drop below cover line. My cycle I got pregnant in June I had a similar dip at 4dpo so hoping this is a good sign 🤞🏼 keeping the faith. I am going to try and last until next Tuesday for testing :) this group will hopefully keep me in check haha

@Gemmaemilyx least it’s finally arrived!!

@NoisyBee yes were quite close, although this morning my apps according to my temps have changed my ovulation date from CD17/18 to CD19.. not sure how I feel about it moving the days 🤣🤣 so now what feels like an even longer wait with less chance of it happening as we stopped DTD on CD18. So I’m now apparently 4DPO as of this morning!

Good luck this month, being positive is the only way to be tbh 🤞

@HE93C to answer your question about CM! Yes girl! Absolutely! The two times i got pregnant i had an increase in CM after ovulation, I'm normally dry after O, but noticed an increase of CM and white/pale yellow milky discharge on the tww! ( sorry for TMI) i remember looking here for explanation or anyone with the same symptom... but keep in mind that i usually go dry after O. So i think it depends how you usually are... hope it helps, baby dust to you.

I am 4/5 dpo too so we are pretty synced up !!
Trying to stay positive about it all.. was going to try and hold out until Monday or Tuesday next week.. my luteal phase is only normally 10/11 days so might have period by Monday anyway

I had 2 accidental pregnancies and jealous of myself 🤣

currently on CD 16 and peak opk finally but it’s whether me and my husband can be bothered to dtd tonight 🤣

sending love to those who are struggling atm xxxx

I know I’m jealous of the accidental pregnancies now and never thought I would be as I couldn’t have coped with that 🤣 I wanted to know we was both ready!!

Aw well fingers crossed it holds out for you. So many people say they think AF is coming and get a BFP.

Thank you, thankfully I feel like it’s all sorted now 🥰 so I’m feeling back to my usual self!!

Flo says ready to test in 5 days and AF due in a week but I expect it'll come before the 5 days to test ☹️

It's so frustrating to think probably how much easier it would have been falling pregnant accidently when he weren't ready for a baby or werent giving it a single thought eh 😅

Sorry to hear you're having tough times I hope it starts to look up soon!

Aw you really never know as all the symptoms are sooo similar!! When do you expect AF?
But if it makes you feel any better, I’m not hopeful for this cycle after the amount of stress I felt earlier this month!

I feel like I've given up already tbh, getting major mood swings, overheating and am a bottomless pit which are my typical PMS symptoms so I think I can expect it in the next few days 🫠
