Hi everybody! I was originally active on another thread but can't keep up far too many messages [hard to get a word in] and the most people seem to be way further in their tww. As for me 32 ttc cycle #5 after chemical pregnancy in March..this will be 3rd and last baby..CD 19 today 4 DPO fingers crossed....who else is a similar dpo/point in their cycle? feel very lonely at the moment and the tww is always soo hard..😕

Did these just now, but the clearblue one looks like the evap line you get but it came up after a couple minutes? Confusing 🫤

🤞🏻 thanks I’ll definitely be trying that

if there’s a shadow on all of them then here’s hoping it’s the start of your BFP 🥰

JupiterDaze · 12/07/2025 18:49

@HansBanans ah sorry AF has arrived but hopefully this cycle will be your cycle 🤞🏼 when I drank the pomegranate juice I started it from ovulation to when I got my BFP, one glass a day. No idea if it actually helped but no harm in trying 😂

I did 2 cheapies and a boots early test just now all from the same urine sample. There’s shadows on all of them but they’re so faint they’re probably just indents. I am only 7dpo so I doubt they’re actual lines

HansBanans · 12/07/2025 16:20

@GreenApple121 I’m feeling ok about it as was expecting it based on bbt gradually dropping over the past couple of days, so it’s not been a total shock if you get me. We’ve been trying for about 3 months now after getting my hormonal coil removed. I read somewhere that it can take 3-4 cycles on average to catch after getting it removed so hopefully this cycle is my cycle 🤞🏻

GreenApple121 · 12/07/2025 16:15

@HansBanans ahh sorry to hear that! How you feeling about it?
sorry if you mentioned before but my memory is terrible - how long have you been ttc?

HansBanans · 12/07/2025 15:31

@GreenApple121 that sounds like a waistline friendly option! I’ll get those ordered, thank you 😊

AF has now fully made her appearance for me so cycle #4 begins! Expecting my fertile window to start 23/24 of this month, so hoping there isn’t another mini heatwave at that time 🤞🏻

GreenApple121 · 12/07/2025 15:00

@Shizwhizz how exciting about your upcoming wedding! Fingers crossed AF stays away!

GreenApple121 · 12/07/2025 14:58

Hey ladies! Just catching up - @Ec2808 def something there on the early morning test! It’s still so early and lots of people don’t even get a shadow at 9DPO right?

sorry to hear about AF arriving for some.

@HansBanans i have actually been taking cinnamon a little while back and really helped to regulate my cycles!! I haven’t taken it for a while as ran out but you reminded me of it so will do it again. I usually forget if it’s something I have to ‘add’ to food etc so been taking Organic Burst cinnamon capsules - found them very good

@JupiterDaze ooh, the porridge is a good idea, thanks! And now I’ll be adding pomegranate juice to the shopping list for the tww 🤞🏻

Ec2808 · 12/07/2025 10:48

@JupiterDazeawk thanks soo much! You try to have fun too! It’s not that hot here about 26 so still tolerable 🤣🤣 but be glad when we get back tonight as I didn’t sleep well last night was up at 4:30 🤣🤣
i know the feeling exactly how i feal at the moment 🤣🤣

OP posts:
JupiterDaze · 12/07/2025 10:48

@HansBanans I know exactly what you mean! Knowing AF is coming but it’s taking ages to show up, you just want it to start already! Oooh I’ve never heard of that about cinnamon! I sometimes put it in porridge but to be honest I’ve never been a massive fan of it.. there’s another one about pomegranate juice apparently it helps blood flow to the uterus that helps with the lining grow and implantation, whenever I’ve had a successful pregnancy I drank it during the TWW but this cycle I haven’t so we’ll see 👀

JupiterDaze · 12/07/2025 10:40

@Ec2808 ah enjoy your day 😊 I’ve got to take my eldest to a birthday party today and it’s outside, it’s going to be 30 degrees today 🥲 not looking forward to it but that’ll distract me too from wasting tests when I know they’ll be negative 😂

HansBanans · 12/07/2025 10:37

@JupiterDaze I’m far too hot, and far too tired 😂 be glad once AF gets in full swing so I can just crack on with a new cycle. I was reading this morning that cinnamon is meant to be good for fertility as it increases progesterone and decreases testosterone in women as well as improving sperm production and motility in men. Will need to have a look for various ways to up the cinnamon intake, as while DP and I would love to spend the month munching on mountains of cinnamon buns our waistlines definitely wouldn’t be thanking us 🤣 fingers crossed you get your positive in the next few days 🤞🏻

Ec2808 · 12/07/2025 10:34

@JupiterDazewill do we’re heading out for the day so should keep my mind off things 🥰🤞🏻🤞🏻will test this evening…

OP posts:
JupiterDaze · 12/07/2025 10:17

@HansBanans negative of course 😂 I did a cheapie but it’s just too early. How are you feeling?

@Ec2808 I can see a line on the 4:30 tests! I found that I personally have darker lines in the evening, maybe try another clearblue again tonight?

HansBanans · 12/07/2025 09:46

@Shizwhizz congrats on your upcoming wedding! 💒 I totally get you on the sore boobs, I’ve never really noticed it before but had it this month quite badly. I’ve started spotting today so expect AF to make a full appearance sometime today or tomorrow

Shizwhizz · 12/07/2025 09:39

Ima still waiting, 12dpo today and I havent tested yet, mainly because the only tests i have in the house are the easy@home ones and I feel they wouldnt be accurate till missed AF. Plus I am prepping for my wedding on weds which has been pretty good cos I have been distracted but also so annoying cos if its not sucessful this cycle I might be getting AF on my wedding day hahaha. GREAT. ;)

been trying to relax more this cycle, I have a feeling I will get AF, but I am trying to relax and remember that a no this cycle doesnt meant a no over all and you gotta just keep going.

My boobs are stupidly sore. Since Ive been trying though my boobs are ALWAYS so sore I swear they never used to be its like phantom boob sore. They have hurt so badly from about 5dpo onwards, especially the nipple. FUN TIMES haha.

Ec2808 · 12/07/2025 08:51

@HansBananswill have to wait and see 🥰🤞🏻

HansBanans · 12/07/2025 08:48

@Ec2808 I wouldn’t worry too much about the SMU one just yet, 9dpo is still very early. Just need to take each day as it comes 🥰

Ec2808 · 12/07/2025 08:29

@HansBanansi know but took one with smu and it was basically negative 😕
