Morning girls, that’s it really, looking for 2WW buddies to get through the longest part of the ttc cycles !
I’m 1DPO, cycle 8 for a first baby 🤞🏼

@Lh4503thank you lovely ! I think it is confusing isn’t it because yhe “ test when period is due” doesn’t work for short luteal phase!
i think im at the mercy of time here !

Morning @WF1990 awww how frustrating, this stage is such a mind f* isnt it 😣 I guess no spotting/sign of AF is a good thing! Maybe it's too early if it is a positive, im not sure how it works with the shorter luteal phase? I dont tend to get positives until at least 13dpo but my LP is 14 days usually. Hang in there girl!

Hey ladies, quick update on my side, 10/11 dpo and another stark white on CB ultra early. Boobs still sore, and no spotting or even any cramps or any sign of Af (my luteal phase is only 10 days). I give up 🤣 must just be a cycle where out of absolute magic I now have a longer LP ! I don’t think I’m gonna test until the weekend now because surely AF will show up. There’s no point testing further when I’m BFN at this stage !

@EllieWaleswe shall see ! I just realised that I am probably still 9 dpo since I had ovulation cramps (very strong) at night on 21st September. (If we’re picky on timing!).

i guess the sore boobs can’t be from hcg since test is negative but definitely means my progesterone is still going. And I guess this is a win in itself.
how are you ???

OP posts:
EllieWales · 01/10/2025 08:50

It’s still early for a positive especially with second wee! You’re not out until you’re out @WF1990.

The sore boobs is a good sign, maybe there’s something in the supplements after all??

Hey girls,
stark white clear blue on second wee of the day so I’m not sure !
stll very sore boobs, I’ll be 10 dpo as of 9.00 pm tonight 🤣
proud of myself for not testing before, but I now have 3 clear blue tests waiting to be used for potentially nothing 🤣 af due tomorrow. Usually my boobs stop hurting now because progesterone drops and af is imminent, but it could be that I lengthened my luteal phase with the 49294 supplements I took for the last 3 months 🤣
the drama continues …

Lh4503 · 01/10/2025 07:56

@EllieWales I feel that. Im doing the same just doing LH testing now and I feel soo much better not doing BBT. It's a lot and deffo affects brain space 🤣

@WF1990 any update!? I'm so invested 🤞😆

EllieWales · 01/10/2025 07:08

@WF1990 all sounds promising! Keep us updated 🤞so hoping it’s your month.

AF was due yesterday for me but hasn’t showed yet, another BFN this morning at 14dpo confirms I’m out.

I’m going to scale back on all the data monitoring because it’s taking up too much space in my brain and playing with my emotions 🤣 I know how my cycle works now so just going to revert to DTD every other day through the fertile window and hope for the best!

Lh4503 · 30/09/2025 16:47

@WF1990 That all sounds good 🤞😊 when are you planning to test!? Im so hoping this is the month for you!

@MegLS Thank you, yes doing okay. Feeling a bit more relaxed now AF has arrived and I can not think about it for a while until ovulation 😆

MegLS · 30/09/2025 15:23

@WF1990 that sounds really positive! Sending all the baby dust, really hope it’s your month! Are you still planning to wait and test tomorrow?

@EllieWales & @Lh4503 sorry to hear about your BFN and AF making an appearance, hope you’re both doing okay!

Right quick update on this - (I feel like I’m talking alone but I need to update my feelings SOMEWHERE 🤣)
my bowels have been crazy lol
and my boobs are very very sore. I’ve felt very hungry and light headed. ALL of this could literally be pms. But no sign of my period at all so far. It’s due tomorrow and by then I usually get cramps and a bit of spotting so idk .. we shall see but the wait is killing me!

Sorry to hear about the bfn @EllieWales!
and thank you for your kind words. How many dpo are you ?
I am 9 dpo today. Yesterday I had a tiny blob of pink EWCM. Nothing else since, AF is due tomorrow , boobs are
really sore but I really don’t want to get my hopes up. I haven’t tested yet. If AF doesn’t arrive tomorrow I’ll test ! But I’m anxious lol

Hey ladies, 8 dpo , sore boobs and heartburn over here. (Heartburn is ongoing for me so nothing related but so annoying).
I cant believe I didn’t test yet. Sore boobs are positive to me as the last 2 months where I had low pg I barely had sore boobs ! AF due either tomorrow or Wednesday so I think I’m gonna hold off testing as it’s not long now!

OP posts:
Lh4503 · 28/09/2025 16:22

@EllieWales Yes your not out until your out 🤞🙂

I'm feeling a little more chilled now AF has arrived. Decided im not going to continue tracking BBT as I feel like its all just too much and I need times in my cycle where I can be a bit more relaxed, and not constantly be thinking about TTC. I'll also be waiting until at least 13DPO to test as that's the first day positives have shown on the last two occasions. Its just a lot isn't it and I dont want this to take over my life. As hard as it is for it to not! 🤣

WF1990 · 28/09/2025 15:17

@EllieWalesaches and pains COULD be a good sign too, it’s not over until af really show 🤞🏼
I have no idea when I’d like to test this month …! Probably 10 dpo ? When AF is due ? Because I don’t think I’d get a bnp anyways tomorrow or Monday at 8/9 dpo, might be too early. And also I donY have any tests in the house which really helps keeping me sane let’s be honest🤣

OP posts:
EllieWales · 28/09/2025 12:44

Sorry AF arrived @Lh4503 at least you know where you are, onto next month 🤞

@WF1990 when are you planning on testing?

I’m 11 dpo today and been having some aches and pains so I think my body’s gearing up for AF which I think is due Tuesday

Hey girls how is everybody ?
im 7 dpo, sore boobs and a bit tired, typical pms symptoms so nothing to really note here !
I hope you all had a good weekend 🫶🏽

OP posts:
Lh4503 · 27/09/2025 17:08

@WF1990 I know 😩 I hate these months that just mess with my head. The cramps are now in full swing though and AF has finally arrived, so at least I know where I am now.

You clutch them straws girl, you never know. Didn't you say something was different this month that only happened in your cycle with the CP? Keeping everything crossed for you!! 🤞🤞

WF1990 · 27/09/2025 13:11

@Lh4503gosh what a mind f**k for you!

6dpo over here, sore boobs, which makes me think my progesterone might be a bit higher than last month as I didn’t get sore boobs for the past
2 months and my pg was low (clutching at straws but can you blame me )

OP posts:
Lh4503 · 27/09/2025 09:40

@WF1990 Still spotting currently, it's been 14 days of some sort of spotting now 😩 I do think AF is coming today or tomorrow though as I have that crampy feeling. How are you feeling?

@EllieWales Thank you. It's so deflating isnt it, I totally get it. You sound like you have a lot of your plate too, but very exciting 🙂 sending hugs! Maybe a break will be what you need to feel a bit better about it again.

@Lh4503 it does look like an evap line to me but I could be wrong. Hoping you get your answer today 🫶

I’m 10dpo and haven’t tested yet. I’m pretty sure I’m not pregnant I’m just not ready to see another negative test yet so holding out. I’m really struggling with it at the moment so I think we’re going to take a break from tracking after this month (if I can resist) and see if it happens on its own. We’re also in the process of buying a new house which basically needs a full reno so maybe it’s for the best 😔
