@Delilah7 @daisiesandpeonies @Crossfitgirl

Thats what I'm hoping @flapjackered! Fingers crossed 🤞🏻

Not testing is so hard isn't it @CrystalBlaze !! Massive congratulations on your bfp!!!! 💕 How many dpo are you?

I'm currently 13dpo and AF is due tomorrow....keeping everything bloody crossed but still got this niggly doubt in the back of my mind....
Been having achy AF type feelings today, but then been getting them (and twinges) since about 9/10dpo so not sure if it means something one way or another. 😔

Thank you @purplestar!

@MrsM I'm 13dpo today but I have a shortish luteal phase so AF was a day late.

@CrystalBlaze huge congratulations!! That's awesome news!

@MrsM2017 keeping everything crossed for you xx

Hi ladies.

Sorry I've missed so much. So glad for the good news :)
I hope the rest of you have been ok!
Had some weird thin white Cm today. Sort of how I had it before so over thinking... again!

Check in tomorrow xxx

I'm out this month I think. Just gone to the loo and there's the tiniest couple of pink dots (think this counts as spotting even though it's barely anything?) put it into Flo and it changed my ovulation day to yesterday so we won't have caught it 😩

Huge congratulations crystal!!!!!!

I know what you mean crossfit I just want this AF to get a move on so that I can get to this cycles fertile days!

Good luck fro tomorrow mrsm

mrsreader im a bit of a POAS addict so will probably do so every day from 10DPO just for something to occupy myself with.

valid you aren’t out until AF is here, fingers crossed for you.

cupcake have you been using OPKs at all? I wouldn’t go entirely by an app. if it’s wrong spotting could be an implantation bleed? Sperm live for a fair few days so you might not have missed the entire fertilisation period?

Hi all!

I’ve been AWOL as work has been absolutely manic recently! My period is due today but no signs as of yet. Had hardly any of my normal PMS symptoms, normally get horrendous headaches, bloating, cramping for days before but haven’t had any of it :/ done a Pregnancy test this morning and it was negative. Think my cycle might be messed up because I didn’t get a clear positive ovulation kit until day 21 of my cycle which is a bit crazy :/ don’t know what to think. Not getting my hopes up but so desperately want a baby I can’t help feeling upset when I see those negative tests :(

Also I’m from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Hi all sorry, I'm due AF around 29th/30th so I have two weeks... I had a feeling I ovulated early (but that's just a feeling) so I have zero idea what's going on 🤷🏻‍♀️ just back to the dreaded TWW xx

@Patapouf I've not used many OPKs, they don't seem to work for me xx

@CrystalBlaze WAHHH! Amazing news!! Congratulations!!!! 🎉🎉🥂🥂🥂

@MrsReader - I reckon 12dpo is a good testing day. I read on a website the vast majority of people will get an accurate result at 12dpo.

@MrsM2017 - good luck!!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 will you test tomorrow?

@cupcakesandglitter - sorry to hear your cycle is being annoying - it's so frustrating when it isn't as you expect.

I am due 26th. I get back from hols on 25th do I wait and test on the 26th or do I test the morning before? If I wait it will be the sadness of being back from hols and a bfn or day before may make me sad on holiday. Decisions....probably 26th do you think?

@FlapJackered enjoy your holiday and test when your back I'd say, I know it's hard but just incase you don't want to put a dampener on it for the sake of a day x

@ScientistTTC yay! I'm not the only one! Are you more north or south?

Thanks girls for the advice on when to test

Cupcakes- I'm due AF the same day as you, hopefully she won't show!

@FlapJackered I'd definitely test on the 26th, let your holiday be focused solely on that - make the most of it and give your body time to rest before you test! Xx

@MrsReader ooh will you be joining us on testing on the 28th? Xx

Yes, strength in numbers!

@MrsReader fab xx

Thanks @CrystalBlaze, good to know - I'm 14dpo today 🙂

@ttcat32 @Patapouf @FlapJackered - tested this morning (day AF is due) and bfn on frer.....? 😐

If I were you @FlapJackered I'd test on the 26th 😊

Still negative tests, but still feeling nauseated. Still gassy. Maybe a funny indent this morning?

Anyhoo, concerned AF is coming - watery CM. But not my usual flat out misery with PMS.

AF due tomorrow. That'll be 10-11 dpo. Time will tell!

@MrsM2017 I feel your pain! I'm a bit earlier than you, but a negative test sucks!

Ugh, does it @ValidUser - keeping everything crossed for both of us x

Thanks, I think you're all right, 26th does make more sense. I wish I hadn't brought a hpt on holiday. It's going to take all my will power not to test!

Sorry to hear that @MrsM2017 - you're not completely out until AF though!

@Crossfitgirl - the natural cycles one does beep, which is annoying but doesn't light up at all. I don't take my temp at the same time each day, I just do it when I wake up, it normally is roughly the same time though and I can still see a definite shift once I have ov'd.

Can anybody who temps show me what a full cycle of theirs looks like please? I've only been doing it a couple of weeks but don't really know what it's supposed to look like at certain times of the cycle (except around ovulation). Thanks!! 😊

This is mine last cycle not sure there is any real pattern except for ovulation and then it dips before AF.
