TTC & due to OV around the 22nd March? Come on in!

[WildFlower2019]

Decided to set up a thread for ladies due to ovulate some time around the 22nd March. If you're due to OV around this time, come on in!

I find these easier to follow than the big month-long threads.

Thought we could all test at similar times, discuss our crazy symptom spotting, and all the other "fun" around TTC.

You're doubly welcome if you're a POaS addict like me

About me:
33
This will be cycle 5 after TFMR last year.

TTC our first

I've tried conceive plus, preseed, all manner of ovulation kits, etc.

This month I'm going to focus on losing half a stone. I've put a lot of weight on since my TFMR. I think i could be disadvantaging myself. I'm also going to cut down on caffeine throughout the who cycle.

I've also bought the Harvard medical school Fertility Diet book, all backed up with science so I'll let you all know how I get on with it.

Here's a summary if anybody interested: www.urmc.rochester.edu/medialibraries/urmcmedia/fertility-center/education/documents/fertility-diet.pdf

Good plan!

Just got wee one off to sleep!
Not had dinner yet, debating going straight for the wine 😂

2/3 days dpo and cramping in lower left uterus area.

Most likely absolutely nothing but that doesn't stop the symptom spotting 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hiya, been crazy busy with my daughter's first bday then bit of sickness so haven't been keeping up to date am afraid. Just had a quick catch up and sounds like some of us are in with a good chance this month.
Mine has bee so messed up- normally get the solid face/positive opk on day 12ish - only started getting flashy faces on day 12...day 15 here and still flashing face. Not sure what's happened this month, only dtd once (today) so convinced have missed ovulation totally. I'm still getting light brown spotting so not sure what's going on. So, in a nutshell am pretty convinced they'll be no Dec baby for me but will symptom spot along with the best all the same! Hopefully this is the lucky month for at least a few of us.

@Michellebops that was what I was getting yesterday but fine today!

How am I only 9dpo?!

TWW feels like TMW (months)

I hear ya @plipliop :(

I didn't do this with my first and second!
It's like torture...

@Robbo93 and my nipples are actually killing me!

This behaviour of mine is ridiculous. All far too early. Don't even plan to test until next Thursday as that's my birthday 🙈

I didn't do it with my first and clearly blocked it from my memory with no2 pliploip! Almost bed time though then it's a new day

Day 5/6 symtoms - a bit of PMS style cramping, still sore boobs/nipples and veiny boobs (but maybe they're always like that and I just block it out usually!). Tiredness too but I've not had as much coffee/tea as I normally drink.

Definitely got PMS-type symptoms today. Think I ovulated early, which I combination with DD not sleeping well and MIL visiting seems to have ruled me out this month.

@michellebops that all sounds promising! The agonising nipples was what alerted me to expected DD1. Do you normally get sore nipples with AF? I would have thought 2/3 days po would be too early for implantation cramps though, isn’t implantation more like 5 to 7 days po? (Enjoying a bit of vicarious symptom spotting now I’m sure I’m out)

I think these two weeks are going ridiculously slowly. Surely it must be April by now??? I just want to get onto next cycle at this stage, give myself a break from pointless symptom spotting!

@crazychemist I've not a clue about all this.

I had a mmc in October and and my system not been the same since. I have never noticed sore nipples until we started ttc and I took a bit more notice about my body and it's workings.

With my previous pregnancies I didn't have any symptoms other than missed period so I seriously doubt this is anything other than pms.

10 dpo.

I said I wouldn't test until 11 but 4 tests arrived today!

I am holding my wee as I can't decide 🤔

There's a line isn't there?!

@plipliop looks like a line to me!! Omg congrats delighted for you!!
Is that a frer test? Were you having any symptoms the last day or two??

Yes it's a FRER.

I noticed I've been a little bit snappy and I feel really aware of my boobs although they don't look or feel any different.

I have been really thirsty too e.g. waking up for a pint of squash.

I also feel a bit wetter iykwim. But no ewcm or lotion like.

OMFG!

@Loti92 fingers crossed 🤞

@plipliop congrats! I deffo see that line!! Xx

@plipliop so happy for you!!!

If I'm correct I'm about 4dpo. 5 tomorrow!! Boobs have been verrry tingly! Just can't wait to know one way or another and start fresh if af turns up

@Kinsella82 I really hope this is your month!

Thanks everyone. I don't know what to do with myself!

DH is out...

How do I tell him?!

We can't even remember how I told him last time it was over a DECADE ago 🙈🙈🙈

@plipliop this is actually one of the things I think about a lot - how I'm going to tell DH when it does happen!
So excited for you!

Give ideas! He will be back soon.

I have a hot cross bun.
Maybe I should put it in the oven.

Too cheesy?! 🙈

@Kinsella82 I'm the same as you.. guessing I'm 5DPO but could be 4.. x
