I have no idea what is happening this cycle !! Ewcm very stretchy and abundant on cd13 which is already way to early for me usually it’s about cd 18-20 and since cd 13 I’ve had nothing ! Bone dry so to speak 😂 which is also VERY uncommon for me personally. The fact I seem to be having a very unusual cycle this month is not filling me with much hope of a bfp this cycle, currently on CD 16 🤷🏼‍♀️. Very confused over here!! Hope everyone’s cycles are coming along as they should and hopefully we will get a few BFP’s in November !!

I’m also cd16 and have had similar. First it told me I ovulated on cd10 which I knew wasn’t right but it seems to have corrected itself now. Ewan started then stopped and has now started again and I finally got what I think is that start of an lh surge this morning so hopefully I’m on track for tonight or tomorrow morning 🤞🏻

name change as I already have a young baby so didn't want people to see old posts and judge me for trying again already.
Currently on cycle day 22 and am 2 days PO so I don't think this month will be our month but you never know.

Unfortunately no, the line got a lot lighter/negative on the tests and then I started bleeding heavily so definitely not. I feel OK, it was only our first time trying and we're very lucky to already have a little girl. I'm really sorry about your loss, fingers crossed this is the cycle for you!

Hopefully the next cycle brings you some luck!

Sorry to hear that GreyhoundGal1. having that wee moment is even more frustrating. No chance its implantation bleeding?

Orangeroses243 · 28/10/2025 13:39

@summertime94 I think I am due roughly the 11th. I am not too sure how early you can test in all honesty so interesting to hear stories where people test early and get that positive result.
For me its my first cycle coming off the Pill. I have definitely ovulated over 25th/26th so hoping we are lucky first try 😅🤞 I know thats probably over hopeful! I did have my daughter 10 months ago so I was advised you can be super fertile the year after you birth 🤔 so I think I am just going off that I my hopeful mind.

We will find out around the same time! Sending you all the luck ♥️♥️ xxx

underthethree · 28/10/2025 12:29

Hi everyone. CD1 is due November 1st, but I think AF might come a couple of days early this month.

was weirdly so sure that October would be my month, but alas, it was not 😢

just waiting for AF to arrive now, hoping I can regain some hope and move forward with November ❤️

GreyhoundGal1 · 27/10/2025 20:05

Hi all! We're trying for number 2, this is day 1 of cycle 2. Had a couple of very faint positives on first response, then my period started today, so I guess I had a CP. Good luck to everyone!

Littlegreenpebbles · 28/10/2025 11:08

No, I've been trying for a few years now but we found some issues with hormones at the start of the year that are hopefully fixed and I was able to conceive earlier this year though lost the baby at around 6/7 weeks. So trying to be positive!

My lh didn't actually peak though, I had two higher days but all marked as "low" on premom so I think if I did ovulate it was on the second higher day (21st) though for my usual app tracking it says it was the 23rd.

I'll just start with the early detection ones every second day from the 1st until AF arrives I think.

Hi all, I'm in my 2 week wait now. 2dpo today, anyone else the same?

Hello, I think I’m about the same as you.

Got a positive ovulation test over the weekend using the Clear Blue ovulation tests with the smiley faces for the first time. It wasn’t when I was expecting a peak so will be interesting to see if it’s worked.

summertime94 · 28/10/2025 09:50

@Littlegreenpebblesfingers crossed! is it a your first month TTC?

@Orangeroses243im going to try and wait until at least 8th or 9th November to test. My period is meant to be due on 9th. this is cycle 5 for me, how about you?

HansBanans · 27/10/2025 20:07

Hi, can I join? Cycle 6 ttc baby #2. First cycle using Clearblue digital opks, hoping to ovulate by Friday 🤞🏻

Orangeroses243 · 27/10/2025 19:28

@summertime94 I am the same as you? I think there early detection test from the 3rd November right?
I think il wait my full cycle to test though.
Is this your first cycling TTC? X

Hi all, I'm in my 2 week wait now. 2dpo today, anyone else the same?

I think I'm a few days ahead. I didn't catch my lh peak but my app thinks it should have been the 23rd so we should be about the same. Fingers crossed for you

@Moosey898are you tracking temperature? Hoping this is the cycle I get my bfp as we were on holiday so it was a lot more relaxed :)

I've never really got on with tracking temperature - I'm so bad at doing it before anything else in the morning so hasn't worked for me.

Couple of days behind you, today/tomorrow is ovulation for me (will be counting Wednesday as 1dpo) so we'll be close in timelines 😊

SallySummerPop · 27/10/2025 12:21

Hi all,

I'd like to join in if that's ok? This is my second cycle trying. Best of luck to everyone! I have my fingers crossed for all of you.

HangryTealWriter · 26/10/2025 18:57

Hey! I had surgical management of a missed miscarriage on 17th September, period arrived last Tuesday so think I’ll ovulate around next weekend 🤞🏻

I was using a pregnancy test (to check line fading) and ovulation test everyday between. I had 2 positive ovulation tests, 5 days apart which was weird. Period came exactly 14 days after second one though, so I guess that’s proof that a positive test doesn’t prove ovulation!

I’m doing my best to track temperature, some mornings I’m awake for ages before remembering though 🫣 I started ovulation tests again this morning, a few days early according to Glow but I’d rather be early than late!

Good luck ladies!

Can I join? I’m ridiculously early as I’m actually still on my period but I’m feeling at a bit of a loss of what to do while I’m not in my TWW so here I am!
Ive been having really long cycles since my 4th and most recent miscarriage in April (40 plus days) but my last one went back down to ovulation CD 16 and 29 days in total so hopefully we are back in business 🤞

@Moosey898 I recognise your username and journey from a few of the threads I think I’ve been in with you before. Our miscarriage timelines were similar at one point I believe (not a great club to be in but there we go). I’m so sorry to see you here again and for the loss of your little girl - I’m really rooting for you to have a safe and healthy pregnancy next time after all your heartbreak 🤍

Hey! Ah I'm so sorry you're still on the conception boards again too. It really sucks doesn't it having to keep coming back. I had surgery for a missed miscarriage in Jan and then lost Ava in Dec. Hoping it won't take too long to catch again....but also aware it can!

Biscuitbaby2218 · 26/10/2025 12:37

Hey ladies! I’ve got definite EWCM today along with other ovulation symptoms which has left me very confused as I’m only on CD 13 and I usually ovulate CD 20 + due to long cycles ! As I’m not tracking I’ve no idea if it is true ovulation or not 🫣 going to bd anyway just to be on the safe side but has anyone else ovulated way earlier than normal ?

Orangeroses243 · 25/10/2025 13:34

Hello all 👋
I am on cycle day 14 according to flo app.
Hoping to conceive as soon as! This will be baby no2 for us!
The reason I say according to flo app is because I actually was on the mini pill. I missed a couple of pills then had breakthrough bleeding, then continued the pill for 6 more days - this sparked convo between us and we decided that now would be a good time to try for baby no2 so stopped taking it completely. After the 6 days of taking, after the missed pills and stopping again I have had no more breakthrough bleeding so I put first day of last period as the first day I had break through bleeding if that makes sense? So im right in the middle of ovulation according to app. (Usual cycle 28/29 days)
I don't know the chances of catching straight away but I like to be hopefull! 🙌

We are just having regular sex not testing ovulation at the moment? What about everyone else!
Sending luck to you! @Biscuitbaby2218 @Moosey898

Edited

I’m not currently tracking, just regular sex ! I’ve found that ovulation strips aren’t accurate for me because of pcos causing false spikes 🫣 I think temping would be more reliable for me :) it’s only cycle #2 though so I’m going to give it a wait and see approach for a few months and see if we have any success before I decide to stress myself out with tracking temps 😅
