The previous OPs have gotten their BFPs so I have cheekily created this one just hoping that I could get lucky. Hahaha. 😅 Silly, right ?
A bit about me - currently trying to conceive baby No.2 and this is my 4th postpartum cycle.
So I wish everyone good luck and lots of baby dust! 🤞

Good luck everyone!
This is our 10th cycle with no BFP yet. I am about 10dpo, had mild cramps but that's normal for me pre period. They seemed to have disappeared now but I'm trying not to read much into it either way. My partner has a sperm analysis later this month which is the first step in our checks as we're quite worried something may be wrong with it being so long..

Hey! Just to say my partner is also waiting for sperm analysis as we have been trying this time around 14 cycles and all my tests normal. Saying that though we do have a 2 year old already, and she took us about 11 cycles so it might just happen suddenly! Hope you get your bfp soon x

@HappyBlueDonkey Aww, happy birthday to your little one! Fingers crossed this is your month.

@Sunglade 10 cycles is a long time to be trying for, really hope this is your month. Good you are getting on with tests and things. Hope you will get some answers ❤️

cmg91 · 05/06/2026 20:01

I’m cycle day 12 today! I usually ovulate around CD 21 but I’ve been getting some fertile CM the past two days! Hoping I don’t ovulate early as DH is away for a week.

Having some hormone tests done now we are properly trying after our twin loss as my luteal phase is very short and have mid-cycle spotting so I just want reassurance that everything is okay.

I hope everyone is okay and sending baby dust to you all 💜💜

hi all, been MIA as LO turned one yesterday. Think I should be ovulating in the next 4-5 days and really praying this month is our month

ByAquaFox · 04/06/2026 18:31

@TheUniqueMember no lovely! Just this month. Im hoping once this period comes it'll be easier to figure out

@HelloDarknessmyoldfrenemy it rises to ovulate yes but im cd23 but this is why in confused as to why the pre mom app is asking me to test with opks 🤣

Maybe it's still trying to establish your pattern? Have you been using opk for awhile?

I've started testing today and there's a faint line on the OPK. We probably won't start trying until it gets a bit darker, but I'm thinking around day 10 (Saturday) we'll get down to business and then keep going over the following week.

Looking back, I think last month I waited until after the test peaked before we had sex, and we may have missed our best chance. I think I ovulate quite soon after or possibly even just before the peak, so I don't want to leave it too late this time.

Sounds like a good plan, it’s best to have the little swimmers there already waiting before you ovulate so you’ll be covered by starting Saturday 🤞🏼

I’m CD11 and starting to DTD tonight as I’ve got EWCM today. Then again Saturday, and probably Monday depending on if/when I get my peak reading on the monitor. Hoping that’ll be enough as we’re both shattered 😂

I have started my opks as my app tells me too and this is mine...I havent even had a period yet.

Your Lh is very low! Does yours normally rise before your period? I have seen this pattern with mine last cycle.

Also, I love it when apps lose the plot because they can’t deal with cycles going a bit odd. This cycle my app decided I must have ovulated on CD38 as had a slight Lh rise to 0.6. So it was busy telling me to test for pregnancy when I was getting EWCM and my LH was actually rising again 😂

Hope you get some answers soon about what’s happening!

TheUniqueMember · 04/06/2026 14:40

I'm going to be removing my birth control patch in the next week or two - then test with opk straight away.

They say it can take a while for a period to come back so fingers crossed I ovulate randomly!

I wish everyone well 🤞🏻

Nooo progression it must've just been a shadow as its very dead today lol. I too just want to get a wiggle onto the next cycle but here I am stuck in limbo with symptoms but no positive and no period.

How is everyone today?

Nausea has been horrendous this morning to the point I was gagging. Period should be tomorrow but we will see. Test still negative

Period still not here, strange lack of all symptoms - just want to start next cycle now. I did see a tiny faint line on your picture yesterday, has there been any progression?

My test this afternoon. Mr ai says it can see the faint line.

Hard to see as uploading ruins the picture quality 😩 hoping it darkens for you over the next few days 🤞🏼

ByAquaFox · 03/06/2026 14:28

Sorry to hear about your chemicals! Did the GP agree to tests when you had been trying for 6 months the first time? Im a bit nervous of making the appointment and then them saying - what are you doing here, you need to have been trying for a year!”

Good that all your tests are looking good though. Do you have long cycles due to the PCOS?

Interesting to hear about the reflexology and acupuncture! Was thinking of booking myself in for acupuncture if I can find someone locally. Currently raking myo-inositol for the PCOS but not tried anything else yet.

I started taking Myo Inisitol too, although I have regular cycles and don’t really have any of the PCOS markers, other than my consultant scanned me and said I had some cysts, so more mild. Do you think it’s helping you?
I went privately, only because she was my gynae too and I wanted answers faster. I would definitely not hesitate to speak to your GP though, ask for some basic blood tests & they should do those straight away.
I was referred to recurrent miscarriage via NHS, they also did tests that were all clear and said to keep trying!x

SantiagoSister · 03/06/2026 13:01

CD10 here today and got my first ‘high’ reading on the fertility monitor so oestrogen is on the up. Going to DTD tomorrow (unable to tonight) and Saturday, hoping to get my peak around the weekend and DTD that day too. Wishing you all lots of luck for this cycle! ✨

Hey all I’m 3dpo today anyone the same trying to keep my mind off it but really struggling

Hi! I think I’m 4dpo so very similar. Not entirely sure though as didnt get a true peak on the ovulation tests, only 0.93. So currently my pee on a stick addiction is being solved by keeping on using LH tests to make sure it’s not rising again and I actually haven’t ovulated 😂
Sorry to hear you are struggling. How many cycles have you been trying for now?

HelloDarknessmyoldfrenemy · 03/06/2026 11:15

Riverofhope · 03/06/2026 09:02

Hey! So I had lots of tests done a few years ago when I was TTC the first time around and everything was ‘normal’. I had several chemical pregnancies, and then cycle 10 conceived my daughter who is now 2.
I have mild PCOS, other than that unexplained I guess…. Maybe age, as now 40! (Feel 30 still 🤣).
only thing I did differently the month I fell pregnant with my daughter is reflexology & acupunture, which I’ve just started up again now.
Had blood tests again recently and all normal for progesterone etc. x
