EJ - I agree with Eva30. Think you should just crack on with ttc, as you don't know how long it will take to get bfp (hopefully not very long at all). Plus doing the baby dance will hopefully alleviate any stress from the renovation work (corny as that might sound)!

I agree with the others EJ. Don't wait because you don't know how long it'll take to get your BFP. I'm 14/15 months down the road and wish I'd never waited until we were 'set'.

Cd33 and I think af has arrived. It's only spotting right now but I have a bad feeling. It wasn't due for another couple days. I feel shit I just don't think I can have a baby :'(

So sorry Alexia, I think we've all had those feelings. You will get there, it's stressful this TTC stuff but onwards and upwards and hopefully a successful next cycle for you, if AF does arrive this time x

Positive OPK on CD13, anyone know when ovulation will occur?

Hey ladies, can I join?

Month #1 of TTC after implant removal. Not had a period yet but OPK are showing positive yesterday and the day before so hopeful ovulation is happening.

This would be DC3 for me, DC1 for DP. I got pregnant in the first month with the first two but older now, heavier and different partner so a little anxious!

Thank you Sienna. It's been about 3 hours since I noticed spotting. I've checked hourly since then and there's practically nothing now when I wipe. I'm not really sure what to think? I've gone from crying my eyes out to being confused/hopeful. This ttc stuff is certainly challenging!

I think it means you're ovulating very soon so BD lots and good luck x

Welcome OctoberFlowers!

hello
Late to the post, but hoping to join in?!

Lauren
Age:29
Cycle #5
Ttc baby #1
Came off the pill at Christmas, have had regular 28 day periods, until this one which arrived yesterday- two weeks late?!
We started off relaxed....but I've just caved and bought some ovulation kits🙈. Wishing everyone good luck 🍀 x

sienna it will happen in the next 24-48 hours because the test detect the rise in hormone just before ov.
alexia could it be implantation bleeding? Do you have long cycles?
Welcome lauren & october

alexia, I had spotting like that the day before my bfp. Not to get your hopes up high or anything as I've had it pre-AF, too, but it's possibly nothing!

sienna, it means you'll ovulate 12-48 hours later, so could be CD13-15.

Yes I remember you saying wispa. I'm keeping an open mind. It's just weird that I spotted 2 weeks ago as well (never have before). I'm going to test in the morning if no af.

Eva Yes, usually I have 34-38 cycles but they're not reliable.

Thanks Wispa, Eva and Alexia. Ovulation has varied from CD13 to CD16 in the past 3 months for me then.

Alexia Fx it's IB and you get your BFP x

Everything crossed for you alexia!

Big ugly af showed up early this morning :( ugh, on to next month I guess!

Sorry for the girls who AF paid a visit to. I'm still waiting CD31 expected AF yesterday so she still has time to get me! Going to wait till wednesday I think to test again, if I can stand the torture that long lol xx

Hi all
Congrats Theresa on the BFP! Hope this is a lucky thread!
I'm back again from the last thread having missed the April bus
I think I'm about 6 dpo and have had a strong metallic taste in my mouth. Have googled and this is a pregnancy symptom it seems, but would have thought in still too early for this. Anyone else had the same?

Oh I'm sorry alexia keep your chin up xx
rausten I'd have caved and tested by now!
Cd12 for me, dtd this morning and then did that thing will legs in the air against the wall like an actual crazy person (face in palms)!
Hi buttontum I have no idea as ttc#1 but I have heard about the metallic taste early on

6dpo is probably too early for any real 'symptom,' but who knows? I never had it, though.

Thank you Eva. That gave me a laugh, baby dust to you! Xx

No I always have my bum in the air after like a crazy person lol xx

Sorry to all those AF has got. I will probably be joining you in a few days.

8dpo and I am totally symptom spotting. Sorry this is TMI but I have had diarrhoea for about 24 hours (had to get up in the night a couple of times) but no sickness and apart from feeling tired (probably due to not getting a great sleep!) I'm ok. This is totally unlike me and I ate the same as my DP who is fine, so of course I convinced myself this could be a symptom. Have had to have the "step away from the Google now!" chat with myself. That way madness lies!

All the best to all tww-ers, hope you can stay sane better than me!

Slightly worried that I haven't had any EWCM this cycle, but 2 positive OPK's. Hope this doesn't affect anything, been googling like mad

sienna I'm the same, but haven't had any EWCM or positive OPKs and I'm on CD13, hope the stress of the house move hasn't stopped ov :(

Awww don't worry, Sienna - you might have had some and not even noticed, I wouldn't read too much into it, and positive Opks are a good sign.

Eva stress can sometimes delay ovulation a bit - I ovulated about day 16 last cycle when it normally would be 13 or 14. On reflection I was worrying way too much about ttc, it was my first thought every morning and was temping etc. This cycle I was much more relaxed and ovulated earlier. So try not to worry, it will probably happen very soon, and even if you doesn't it is completely normal to have the occasional anovulatory cycle. Good look with your move, hope you're soon unpacked and settled :-)
