Hi everyone moving over to March now as AF has arrived today. That means my last cycle was 26 days. My cycles haven’t been the same since being on the depo injection. I’ve had 33, 28, 31, 29, 21 lol. As long as I ovulate then I’m happy. Is temperature the only way to know if you have actually ovulated?

Muddysocks1 · 26/02/2025 08:31

Can I join? I’m CD13 today, expected ovulation on Friday. Have gone whole hog on supplements this month (not sure how long they take to work? I’ve taken various for ages but sometimes inconsistent or forget ones or don’t take for a few days) and trying pre-seed. partner away for work so hoping I don’t ovulate early!

rhirhibumblebee · 26/02/2025 08:17

Hey familiar faces from Feb thread and new! I'm about 9dpo and I have the most insane painful boobs. I don't remember having this before so I'm not sure what it means. But obviously hopeful 🤞🏻😬

BerrieSweet · 25/02/2025 21:54

@carolinep3 Maybe it's normal for the peak to last a few days sometimes! Ahh I understand the frustration, I hope you get the peak before the weekend so you can just focus on BD and get in the TWW!! Fingers crossed for you ❤️

Do you think you have been stressed or something lately that might have lengthen the follicular phase?

@carolinep3 I have both, the purple gave a solid smiley on sunday, then I've tested with the pink one every day after that. It gave me a smiley sunday as well, but also monday and today morning, but negative after work today and my temp rised a lot.

I was reeeeeeally stressed yesterday so maybe that made the peak longer

Edited

I only use the purple one and the strips so don't know 🤷🏻‍♀️ my peak normally lasts a few days to be honest. I just wish it would bloody hurry up!! Although weekend is always better isn't it for dtd 😂

I've had a 3 day peak, with smileys 3 days in a row. Someone know what that means? A smiley this morning but no smiley tonight and a temperature rise so I guess that means the egg was released today :) We have DTD 3 days in a row and will tonight as well, he leaves for a trip tomorrow so I hope It's enough🙏🏼

Which clear blue - the advanced purple one or pink one?

I'm
So frustrated! I had acupuncture last month that was supposed to move my ovulation slightly later (it worked as was cd17) but this month it is cd15 and my clear blue ovulation stick is still a blank circle! No even rose of estrogen yet! I don't know what is going on 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm very regular normally

Jo2104 · 25/02/2025 16:51

I’ve bitten the bullet and ordered some first response tests from Amazon to be delivered tomorrow! Im praying AF doesn’t show up tonight now 🤦🏼‍♀️

Wednesdayonline · 25/02/2025 13:27

Can I jump on, moving over from the Feb thread. CD2... so here we go again! Managed not to test last month, and I honestly think it made getting my period more devastating as I was more hopeful. So might try testing again this month but only day before and day of period maybe?

Thank you. I'll take a look into it 😊 was also looking a float therapy for relaxation

AF arrived today at 9dpo 😭 I don't understand why luteal phase is so short. Can gp help? What can they do?

Jo2104 · 24/02/2025 11:53

I didn’t buy a test 🤣 I left the shopping centre through the other doors at the opposite end so not to be tempted by boots 🤣
I’m busy the rest of this week so hopefully won’t be tempted to go back until Friday!!

Room4onemore · 24/02/2025 11:18

I’m no good, I can’t help myself, I know I’ll be testing from 7dpo. I can’t help it, I think I’m addicted 😂

It's an addiction!!!! 😂

Im really struggling to resist the urge to take a test! I don’t have any in the house but have come for my usual Monday morning coffee and toast at the local Costa after the school run! Trying to resist the urge to nip into the local boots and grab a test!

I know the struggle! We support either choice 😂

Hi, I hope you don’t mind if I join. I’ve been ‘TTC’ for 6 months (read obsessively taking ovulation tests) but I’ve not been ovulating because I’m breastfeeding my 12 month old. However, I finally had an LH peak on Saturday! I’m so hopeful that this means I have a chance or that I get my cycle back

So, I’m 1DPO I hope 🤞. Didn’t get to BD at all since the peak as my DH is on nights and I was away with the children. It’s still possible though so I have everything crossed. I’d be happy with AF to be honest!

Good luck to you all for this coming month 🤞

Wouldn't that mean you ovulate tomorrow? And Tuesday is 1 DPO? In that case we're cycle twins!!😍

@berriesweet I think so. Seemed a bit but will definitely know by the morning. I've penned a thing in my notes to paste into an e consult in the morning. Maybe I can have some progesterone, the early misscarrige clinic said they would probably give me that if I got pregnant again anyway due to the misscarrige.

Sounds like a good idea! I've already set myself in waiting list and will do a few tests with my partner in august if we're still not preggo then❤️ It never hurts to check! Maybe you get a good medication and get preggo right away❤️

@LJJ23 really sad news LJJ, hope you are holding up ok.

I’m 3DPO now and the slow demise into madness has already begun. Highlights include googling ‘symptoms 1DPO’. Doesn’t matter how long I’ve been doing this for, the TWW always gets me!

Thank you. I think I may try one more natural cycle and then go the IVF route x

Aww I'm so so sorry! Hope your ok 🥹❤️ Sending hugs! Is it confirmed AF? Not implantation bleeding? Maybe you should check with GP if lutheal phase is short ❤️
