November 2025 — snuggly jumpers, sparkly skies, and fingers crossed for our BFPs 🎇💖

@thismonthsfad i am 5dpo today!

when’s the best time to start testing?

8DPO today for me. Obviously took a test this morning as I have no self control… stark negative of course 🙃 fingers crossed for tomorrow! Boobs feel bigger and getting tummy twinges but that could be PMS 🤷🏼‍♀️

I think I've ovulated yesterday or today, so I guess that's me waiting and see-ing for the next couple of weeks. Anyone else just starting the TWW?

We are going away for 2 nights without DS1 exactly at the time I'll be either testing or getting my period 🫣🤣

Thank you everyone, it's nice to know there are people in similar circumstances. I have had a rollercoaster of emotions, and like I imagine all of you are - I'm desperate for our baby. Trying to stay positive ❤

Hi and welcome. As a PP has said there's a fair few of us on here who have experienced losses recently. Hope you're doing ok x

Funny how Saturday is the one day of the week that takes blooming ages to come around!!! Haha!
Oh wow that's interesting about your dreams! Is that a new thing? This is cycle 3 for me but I had a break last cycle so it was good to kinda see what my PMS symptoms are like without wondering if I could be pregnant. All of my PMS symptoms are also pregnancy symptoms like sore boobs, heightened smell, cramping... So I really can't rely on that DOH! lol..

I'm so sorry to hear of your MC last month. If you'd like to talk about it, I'm happy to listen (or read, whichever is the most appropriate term to use!).

Here to offer gentle support and hoping to be able to tentatively celebrate some good news for you soon.

I’m joining this month, TTC baby #1 after sadly having a MC last month. Sending baby dust to us all ✨

Oh goodness, keeping ALL my fingers crossed for you - a whole added layer of anxiety post transfer. Fingers crossed you're able to hold off testing until Saturday - if you need any moral support, we're here for you!

As for me, after saying I hadn't really seen a peak in LH up until now, that line is definitely darker today! Will keep testing throughout the day but expect that it may get darker over the afternoon. Will take it as 'go' time either way and try my best... Wish me luck, ladies! 😅

@thismonthsfad I’m 6dp5dt so I’m 11dpo equivalent. I’m trying really hard to stick to the test date my clinic gave me which is Saturday!

So far I’ve just had super vivid dreams, felt tired and some twinges in my stomach. Have you been symptom spotting?

Yay for the positivity!! Sending you lots of positive and hopeful vibes too. Keeping everything crossed for you. <3

Morning all! CD16 for me today. PreMom app is predicting today is ovulation but haven't had much luck seeing much of a LH peak with OPKs so god knows what is going on. Not holding on to much hope for this cycle as haven't been overly 'active' on the DTD front and feel a bit like I'm flying blind without knowing when ovulation is.

AF is currently predicted for 17th Nov. First miscarriage due date would have been 20th Nov and my birthday is 22nd... so... it's going to be an emotional rollercoaster whatever happens. Hormones all over the shop, I'm sure.

Morning everyone - is anyone else 5DPO?

Morning everyone, start of fertile week for me today so i've got that positive feeling back again..i'll enjoy that whilst it lasts 😅
@Taysonic lovely to see a familiar name, even though I wish we were both long gone from these threads!! 💓

@Blondepeach Yes - I tested this morning and definitely bfn, so maybe yesterday was just a weird test. I’d normally have got a bfp by now if I was going to… 🤞 for you in the next few days!

Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼✨

Im 10dpo but negative today - have you tested again yet? X

Hello :)

I think I’m going to join in this month!

TTC number 3… I’ve been trying for about a year, on and off - miscarried this time last year, gave my body a chance to recover, miscarried again in May and had a chemical in June, gave body a chance to recover, back in the game again now! I think I’m on about 10/11dpo ish. Vvvvvvvvv faint positive this morning, which tells me either that it’s a faint positive or that it’s an ident… 🫠 🤷🏻‍♀️

Good luck to all this month! ✨

It worked well for me when TTC DS1. But now my sleep is more broken and I’m usually woken up with a small person jumping on my head so maybe the change in circumstances has affected my BBT more than I realised. Thank you x

I've never got on with BBT so I would go by your ovulation tests, but I know others swear by BBT!

Yes I use them every month. I added the info to my chart - I got peak on CD14, high on CD15 and then it went back down to Low after that.

Morning ladies! 9dpo today, just took a ‘easy at home’ cheapie and bfn. I’m only testing this early as my gynaecologist said to take progesterone as soon as I next find out I’m pregnant, the earlier the better. I know it’s still early and I need to chill out, but I hate this part of the cycle 😫 I end up dreaming each night about a positive 😂 attaching my bbt chart too if anybody’s interested haha
