THE DINO CLUB #1

Well, it turns out I had a feeling I had not ovulated, and I was right! I did an LH test this evening, positive, so we DTD. That's it for this week, I tend to ovulate a few hours after my peak as I get ovulation pains. I guess the 2WW officially starts tomorrow for me.
Have a good evening dinos 🤍

I will do !!! I will not take nausea as a sign because I've had horrendous acid reflux recently and I feel nauseous with it 😂 so that won't be a sign for me !
Hopefully it's a successful month ! I shall let you know !

@Clara202 I'm so sorry to hear this ! I honestly managed to regulate my period but I have severe pcos and one month (the girls are witness here!) I think I tested for 24 days straight before I could have a positive LH test and it was absolutely draining ! If I were you I would push for some help from the GP (although we know how unhelpful they can be ...!) good luck girl keep us updated.

@Gemmaemilyx I'm glad you have the possibility to scan yourself and honestly so would I if I was working in this field !! My friend had bleeding through her whole pregnancy and apparently it was normal. Must be nerve wrecking ..!

I said I wouldn't LH test but I did all yesterday and this morning just in case I had a late peak but definitely looks like I must have ovulated on Tuesday or Wednesday 😅 so I am now 2 or 3 dpo. I had not missed the TWW at all. But weirdly I'm quite relaxed (so far) probably because I know I won't do it again if it doesn't work this month. I'll take a break and chill for a bit.

What a journey !

Xxx

@Clara202 you could have ovulated later than predicted? There's no late period only late ovulation as the luteal phase never changes !

Thank you lovely !
How are you ??

I am CD19, I usually peak around 18/19 so I think I missed the peak, unless it's tomorrow but I wouldn't think so since I have no more EWCM!

I did an ovulation test just in case and it's very much negative. So I guess we did time it right and I ovulated as predicted by the sonographer ! We shall see...!

Omg fingers crossed for you let us know @Clara202 !!

@Clara202 thank you girl, how many dpo are you ???

@Toppstileslover you will be missed in the group, but as you said, mental health over anything else 💕 take care of yourself ! 🤍🤍🤍 have a week deserved rest, I hope you're ok, sending you hugs and Dino love xxxxx

Thanks so much for your advice @KT199 I think we will DTD today just in case as you said, and that will be plenty then !. I feel like I probs missed the peak as I didn't test for 2 days but equally I am questioning whether the peak will happen later as my cycles aren't regular ! Arggg.
I think I'll trust the universe, and my body, as this morning I have creamy discharge (tmi always) and no more EWCM.
I hope you're ok 🤍
I got married last June, you will have the time of your life, it was the best day of my life !

Morning dinos 🩶
I hope everybody's well, recovering, growing, taking a step back, I feel like end of 2024'has thrown massive curveballs at all of us.

I wanted your opinion. As you know this month I had not planned on ttc and then on cycle day 16 (Monday) went for an ultrasound and the lady said I was about to ovulate within 24/48 hours as I had a dominant follicle measuring 15mm.
We DTD Monday and Tuesday. Decided not to yesterday as technically sperm regenerates every 3 days + 2 DTD sessions would be enough. BUT.
Monday morning I had ONE ovulation test left (because I had not planned on tracking) and I took it and it was negative. Quite low, my usual LH level around 0.2/0.3
However Monday Tuesday I had plenty of ECWM.
I decided to order more tests given that we are giving it a shot this month. I received them yesterday evening. Went to test my LH and it was almost stark white ! Same this morning! I wonder whether I missed the peak on the strips (but obvs DTD at the right time) or whether my follicle is still growing. OBVS none of you can tell me, but I don't know whether to DTD and keep on tracking, or whether to trust the EWCM and timeline. I feel like peeing on strips for another 2/3 days is going to trigger me tbh as I don't want to approach this month like this. I also have no more EWCM, it stopped yesterday, leading me to think I ovulated.
This is probably the longest message I've ever written on here I'm so sorry for the novel but I just wanted to know what the Dino club would do ☺️
Sending you all love 🤍

Omg @Toppstileslover 😭 bless you ! Sending you big hugs and all my strength. Looks like you're sharing the extra shit time with @kt199 Hang in there girl, don't pressure yourself for TTC . One thing at a time ! And take care of yourself 🩷
Thank you for the " popping follicle" (sounds so funny said like this). We only DTD yesterday and today, as I don't have it in me this month either. I'll definitely be happy
To have a break until summer if this cycle doesn't work.

@KT199 I can't wait for this to be resolved for you too. I'm so glad you have an amazing wedding to look forward to, with some drink involved !
Keep us updated and take care of yourself 🩷

Hi girlies, I missed this chat !

I hope everybody is ok 🩷 I'm literally never on there appart from when someone messages on here 🦕
I had a scan yesterday and it showed a dominant follicle on my right ovary that was ready to pop and release an egg. (I wasn't really going to the scan for that reason but I thought it's a sign!)So we decided to DTD yesterday and tomorrow against all odds. If it doesn't take we will wait until after summer!

@KT199 hope your scan was ok ? Congratulations on your wedding ! 🩷🩷🩷

@littlebluu looks like we are in the same boat this month ! Let me know how you are getting on!
