Hope it’s not too early to start this! For anyone trying in May, and “out” for April.

By some miracle I did fall pregnant this month after over a year TTC but it ended in a chemical just before 5 weeks. I’d tried some new things last cycle (inc baby aspirin and L’arginine, using preseed and doing a daily morning walk!) so going to try all of that again this month and keep my fingers crossed 🤞🏻 don’t know when I’ll ovulate yet but I imagine it’ll be right at the end of April…

Hi everyone! Positive news, Midwife got me an immediate referral to the Dr for hyperemesis gravidarum, and it’s confirmed! Been given anti sickness medication for it, picking them up tomorrow morning 🫶🏼

The thing os it’s not possible to ovulate without a surge? Only started surging on cd 14…😔

I thought you went by the first positive rather than peak, so could you have ovulated closer to when it first was positive (which could have been later in the evening cd14)?

@Bas27i have no idea if mine is normal or even normal for me as this is my first month tracking. I was testing three times a day for the days around the peak - second morning wee about 10am ish, middle of the afternoon about 2pm ish and later afternoon/early evening about 5/6pm ish

@SureLooki will 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

SureLook · 08/05/2025 19:20

@Ec2808 keep testing and update us tomorrow!

@Renee33 definitely going in the right direction. I'd say you will ovulate soon. I would definitely DTD tonight and test twice a day from tomorrow if you can.

@Renee33really do you think so?? I tested on a whim but wasn’t expecting much now i’m just in total shock 🥹

Renee33 · 08/05/2025 18:58

@Ec2808I think I can see something. Hopefully it’s the start of your bfp!

I am currently CD12 and have been testing using the CB digital ovulation since CD9 and today I got a smiley face. However I finally received my LH strips and did a test this evening and this is what it looks like which is so high for me at CD12, because I tend to ovulate a lot later in my cycle and it’s never this strong at CD12. So not sure what’s going on but assume I might ovulate earlier. Better get the hubby involved now to play his part☺️

Ec2808 · 08/05/2025 18:09

@SureLookreally? Thought i was going crazy here…🥹🥹🥹

SureLook · 08/05/2025 18:09

@Bas27 not FMU anyway cause the LH surge starts in the early morning so may not show until late morning or late afternoon. I was testing when I got home from work around 4:30pm or so. But at the weekend I did around 11ish as well. I also held my urine as long as I could and drank nothing or very little. My peak was a four hour hold with no liquids.

@Ec2808 I think I can see it when I don't actually click into the picture. Amazing!

ThisZippyViewer · 08/05/2025 18:02

@Bas27 sorry just realised they were @Ec2808 tests 🤣 and you hadnt posted yours! X
