Hi everyone, fairly new to the site and I don't think I know quite how it works yet so keep having to hop back on to threads 😉

TTC month 3, ovulation was delayed this month. My luteal phase is normally only 10-11 days and I'm now 12 DPO. Normal cycle length 8s 25 days, am now at 29! Temp dipped to coverline yesterday but up slightly today. However, had 3 days of very very light spotting and a BFN with first response today.

I feel like TTC is making my cycle go haywire. Anyone else feel that way? Have a lovely Tuesday everyone!

starkid · 02/10/2018 09:27

My temp went up from 36.18 to 36.30 this morning, so I guess I did ovulate Sunday-ish, & only got 2 times in during fertile week!
Don't think my odds are great, so next month will make sure to start earlier in the month and not be so precise with timing as it clearly isn't easy to pinpoint when it'll start. Just lots of DTD from a couple of days til period ends. Sounds tiring haha

GreyC · 02/10/2018 13:19

Can I join too?
Just started AF - onto second cycle now.
I have 25 day cycles so quite short!

ValidUser · 02/10/2018 14:10

@Delilah7 happy days for that!!! How many days does that make this cycle?
🤞🏻it's your last for a while and you get that BFP + sticky bean.

BabySquid · 02/10/2018 17:31

Welcome also to @catlady3 & @GreyC 👋🏻

cupcakesandglitter · 02/10/2018 17:40

@Delilah7 same here.. happy CD1 day 😄 although mine is super light and doesn't feel like a normal one but still!

cupcakesandglitter · 02/10/2018 17:48

Aaaaand I've just wiped and it's now pink and my pad was pretty much clear. Anyone had anything like this before? 😂

Delilah7 · 02/10/2018 17:58

@BabySquid so that's my longest cycle ever! 34 days! now I don't even know where to start with trying for a baby after this length of time hahaha.

@cupcakesandglitter
I'm honestly in a lot of pain but that's normal for me with periods. It's not a lot yet but it's red and ready to go!
Xxx

@Delilah7 perfect excuse to get back on your game and DTD as much as you can this cycle ;) yeehaw! X

ValidUser · 02/10/2018 18:24

@catlady3 I am also a cat lady!

@Delilah7 onwards and upwards!

Delilah7 · 02/10/2018 18:48

@cupcakesandglitter I think I'm gonna start DTDing from cd10 and go from there. Right now with how my pains are sex is far away from my first thought 😂😂😂

@ValidUser yep! At least she's finally shown her face!

sunshine1987 · 02/10/2018 19:29

@delilah7 yes girl! Happy but not happy for you at the same time, but glad you can now start fresh and get cow girling!

EssJayyCee · 02/10/2018 19:37

Make that 3 of us! I think AF has joined me today too! Light brown when I wiped this afternoon.

mrsof20118 · 02/10/2018 19:39

@Delilah7 least you can start to track with a new cycle now must be slightly relieved xx

BabySquid · 02/10/2018 19:55

Hey @mrsof20118 how are you doing??

ValidUser · 02/10/2018 19:57

@Delilah7 I'm wondering did you ovulate after stopping OPKs? Would possibly explain long cycle?

(My timing may be all off here.)

FivexFive · 02/10/2018 20:17

Hi all! Sorry to hear about the af's arriving, but glad you guys now know where you are at least. Not much to report this end, just waiting for Optimal Bonking Time!
Random and probably ridiculous question: is it ok to dye hair when ttc? Got an urge to go dark red for Autumn but not sure if it's ok??

Delilah7 · 02/10/2018 20:26

@ValidUser I never got a strong positive but I had the pains and egg white mucus!

Sorry bout rest of the AFs turning up xx

@BabySquid holding out but driving myself crazy. Given myself such a headache today worrying and sure my other half thinks I'm crazy. Got an appointment tomorrow at the early pregnancy unit. Going to take another test in morning though and see what it says incase it is negative and least then someone who needs appointment can have my slot. Had very small amounts of blood since first thing when getting up. A bit tonight other than that a bit of brown blood. No pain at all apart from a bit of cramping Saturday. Just want to know either way now so hoping they can do hcg blood tomorrow x

Teachermummy83 · 02/10/2018 20:47

WooHoo @Delilah and @cupcakesandglitter! Never thought I’d be happy for folk to have AF arrive in here, but I’m glad you now know where you stand.
This WILL be the cycle for some of us, I just know it! Positive thinking all the way! Bring on the babies!!!!!

SenoraSurf · 02/10/2018 21:13

Officially on the bus! Well, the November bus I guess...
Stats are
Age- 24 (DH 28)
Cycle 1
CD 2!

Super excited and have been following you ladies for 3 months now. In a perfect world, I'd fall in December but we're trying from now and seeing what happens.

@Delilah7 @cupcakesandglitter I'm both sad and glad for you both to read AF has arrived girlies. Fingers crossed this is the cycle!

Xoxo

Bettyhop · 02/10/2018 21:16
