TTC November Baby

[Explorers10]

So my AF has arrived today but looking forward to having another go at TTC for a baby in November 2019.

Cycle: 4
Age: 34
CD: 1

Anyone else want to join in the same position as we try to get through this next cycle together?

AF arrived today. Good luck to everyone still waiting for their BFP

@MrsP4 - my body is playing silly buggers this month and I don't have usual ov symptoms. Should be around now, but no EWCM yet. App predicted yesterday so OH cane up straight after job finished late last night rather than today and woke me up 😂. Probs too late though I'd really was OV. But we carry on for the rest of the week just in case ;-)

@dragonmummy17 sorry af came 😔 xx

@MrsP4 8dpo here and nothing to report. Not even one tiny little symptom xx

@flyingplum Oh you never know! Are you using OPKs? I've had a lot of EWCM this cycle but about 3 days ago was the most I had, just got a positive OPK so will jump on DH when he gets home 😂

@Peachyx2505 I have everything crossed for you! When are you testing?

@MrsP4 thanks lovely! I may test Friday, if not then I will probably wait til af is due on Monday.

🤞🤞 for you too x

@mrsp4 how did you get on with your tests at the doctors?

@MrsP4 - have pcos so was always told that OPKs were a bit pointless...but am thinking about trying. Having blood tests with doctor next cycle so that will hopefully tell us a few things about whether I'm ovulating, but who knows...!

@flyingplum do you mind me asking what happens when you do use opk's? My doctor a while ago before ttc suggested I may have PCOS, but I don't seem to have many symptoms. Just wondered if you show the signs of ovulation?

@Explorers10 Still waiting for DH SA results should get them on Thursday he needs to ring GP to get them phoned today but they aren't in yet which is ridiculous why do things always take forever! Having my day 21 bloods done on Monday and then I have a docs appointment next thurs so will find out if I'm ovulating! FX everything is ok but who knows, we'll wait and see, we've just booked to go away for a week in May so that's nice gives us something to look forward to and take our mind off TTC.

@Lottiepink - I've not tried them ever, because thought they'd just be confusing. But my periods have really regulated over the past year - though I deffo have the odd weird cycle still - so I'm wondering if they're worth a shot. I get other signs of ovulation like EWCM (or at least signs of my body gearing up for it). But I was thinking of getting ovusense, which is based on body temp rather than hormones.

@mrsp4 good luck with all the tests. Hopefully come back and say all normal and a weight off your mind. Are all the tests done at the gp or did you have to go the hospital for them?

Just realised what you're saying about tests @MrsP4 - I'm having mine starting next cycle too. Though, having real trouble working out how am going to get my 21 day bloods right with my kooky cycle 😂

Well, today's CD28 and I've started spotting so no November baby for me. I charted seriously for the first time this past cycle and my temperatures were all over the place, I quit using the Clearblue Advanced after 7 high days with no peak, and I never saw an LH surge with OPKs. Fertility Friend thinks I didn't ovulate until CD18 which would be a quite short luteal phase, but going by CM I'd say it happened on day 16. Oh well. I guess this has something to do with only being off the pill a few months.

Ahh sorry to hear that @BudgieBird xx

My AF arrived today 5 days late! I reckon I ovulated late as had a bad sore throat around the time I was supposed to ovulate plus I didn’t get my peak smiley face as I ran out of tests explains it!

Ah that's crap @Explorers10 sorry 😔😔 xx

Thanks @peachyx2505 kept getting BFN so relieved AF finally come as getting worried something was up. Not sure if I’m going to be trying for dec baby. AF being this late makes my due date very near to Xmas day which i don’t think I want to be in labour for. Prob take a more relaxed approach to TTC this month

Wishing you lots of luck lovely xx

Thank you @peachyx2505 how are you getting on? any symptoms for you?

Zilch! Nada! Nothing! Absolutely bugger all!

Going test in the morning tho.... just because I have those cheeky cheapies in the drawer 😂 I'll be 11dpo, had a positive with my son on the cheapies at 12dpo. But I've fully prepared myself for a bfn 🙈 xx

@Explorers10 DH got referred for the SA But all my tests are done with the GP

@flyingplum I have regular cycles so it's not that bad for me really, still haven't got the SA results yet phoned today and they said they should have them by next week even though today is the tenth working day and that's what they say to wait so we'll see, just hate all the waiting, just want to know.

@peachyx2505 good luck testing tomorrow. How long did it take for you to conceive your son? It was first time for my daughter. I was so naive just assumed it would just happen again

Thanks lovely. Was a bfn as expected! Only our 2nd cycle so it hasn't been long

Fell first cycle with my son which was a complete shock. It meant I was 11 weeks pregnant for our wedding 🙈

And I'm out!

Is anyone still waiting to test xx
