@Hopefulprincess oh must be frustrating for you. Hope you're feeling ok x

Am ok. Had hideous heartburn today. Couldn't eat my lunch. Have ordered tests off amazon. So won't be tempted to test too early!

Kiskacsa · 03/04/2019 21:09

Hope you’re both doing ok. Pretty sure I haven’t ovulated - opks were faint yesterday and today, and ovusense should be much more accurate. Opk was actually darker a week ago. Just dtd and waiting to see what happens each day...

Robbo93 · 03/04/2019 21:24

Hey ladies. Just checking in!

Strangest cycle for me, started the light spotting 6DPO, heavy bleeding (with clots!) on 10&11DPO.. and practically finished 'period' on CD3 (12DPO)

My last 2 bleeds were 6 days long & heavy up to CD4. (I remember them being like this before i went on contraception too).

So confused!

Coastaldreamer · 04/04/2019 14:59

Hi all hope you're getting on ok x

Bfn this morning at like 5.30 as that's when fmu was. I've no idea how many DPO I am and I'm on CD29 with varying cycles of 28-36 days in last 6 months. Not feeling positive though 🤷🏽‍♀️

Not likely is it? :(

Coastaldreamer · 04/04/2019 15:00

That was on an IC*

Kiskacsa · 04/04/2019 17:48

Who knows @coastaldreamer - always hard to know before af is due so worth just holding out and waiting for a bit if you sometimes go to cd35. I didn’t get a positive until a week late last month, and then that was followed swiftly by a mc, so I’m swearing off poas to the extent I can...

Had a big dip on both ovusense and bbt today - so much so I retook bbt thinking it was wrong. glow has been estimating ovulation tomorrow for sometime so think this is definitely a deed doing day despite a dodgy ear infection...

mrsawhite · 04/04/2019 19:07

How is everyone? I don't know whether AF is coming or not. I've had huge boobs for about a week. Had quite sharp cramps really low in my pelvis today. And feeling a bit teary. Due on Saturday. Had heartburn for a couple of days. But I've been eating spicy food so not sure if I should take any notice of that!

Chocol4te · 04/04/2019 21:51

Hi all, can I please have an advice as I feel like I am going crazy
We are TTC (trying to conceive) for 3 months now, not long I know but I am becoming really impatient now haha, I was on a pill for ages and stopped taking it last May, we've just started to conceive this year in Jan, my period was never regular and quite long, now I am on day 41 (never had a cycle this long) and took few tests all negative, I am monitoring ovulation with Clear Blue Digital and got a peak on day 15 , but now 26 days later no period no BFP (big fat positive), I am pretty sure I am not pregnant even if I had a couple of symptoms but what I am wondering is do I need to wait for AF to come before TTC (trying to conceive) again? Can I ovulate without AF to come ? I don't understand what my body is doing ☹️

Kiskacsa · 05/04/2019 08:38

@Chocol4te welcome to the thread. May be worth seeing a GP if you are much later than you normally are. If you ovulated that long ago, then you should have had AF by now - that would be a crazy long luteal phase. Sometimes Opks give false positives to a few women - if they have pcos and have underlying high LH or have failed ovulation peaks. If that’s the case (are your periods irregular?) then you may have ovulated late. Or it may be you are pregnant and just your tests aren’t showing or (and I hope not) you’ve been pregnant but your body is waiting to release a very early miscarriage and that has thrown your cycle out (that happened to me last cycle). GP may be able to shed better light.

Kiskacsa · 05/04/2019 08:40

@mrsawhite still waiting to see an ovulation peak on temps... calendars think it will be tomorrow, temps only slightly up on dip yesterday. Feel groggy and yuck after a bad night sleep - think my chances of attending a hen do this weekend are pretty low...

mrsawhite · 05/04/2019 12:34

Don't go if you're feeling rubbish!

I know AF is coming. Started to spot today. Oh I was so convinced ☹️

Kiskacsa · 05/04/2019 17:06

Not going - nurse confirmed a perforated eardrum and ear infection today so am home grumpy with antibiotics. Meh. Suspect I’ll spend some of it finally writing my chapter for a law book I’ve been sitting on as DH is away Saturday night. OPKs still negative - if anything they’re getting fainter, either I’ve missed it (unlikely based on temps) or its still to happen. I swear Glow keeps putting its forecast a day back every time I add a negative opk.

mrsawhite · 05/04/2019 18:17

My Ovia app does this. It was weird this month too. It told me to test yesterday. Even though I'm not due on until tomorrow 🤷‍♀️ no point testing now I fear 😢

Hello everyone!! I smashed my screen so got it fixed today 🙈
Hope you get a definite of o soon @kisk
@mrsawhite I hope af stays away!!!!
@choco hello, I’d go to gp if no af by Monday that isn’t right, maybe you got a positive opk and didn’t ovulate?
@coast your not out until af arrives, fingers crossed 🤞
Well not much to report here the witch is still here it’s just started to lighten thankfully! It’s been brutal :( o day seems so long away why can’t we be fertile more than once in a month when ttc 🤷‍♀️ It’s not fair 😂😂

Hi all!! I'm new here and haven't read back on posts, but I'm driving myself crazy! This is my first month tracking my cycle and my first month without my coil in place ready for my ttc journey. I've been getting quite bad cramping/pulling in my left ovary, on and off for 3 days, breast tenderness on and off and feeling really sick like I have something in my throat. I'm currently CD26 but unsure how long my cycles are or what date ovulation was. Does it sound promising? Lol. Lots of baby dust to you allxx

Vanilladream · 06/04/2019 23:49

Sorry, I wanted to add, it took 3.5years to fall pregnant with my first and only child. So I'm not hopeful I'll fall pregnant first month without contraception, I'm just obsessing already lolx

Kiskacsa · 07/04/2019 08:56

@hopefulprincess nice to have you back!

@vanilladream welcome! Always hard to know with symptoms - fingers crossed for you,

Still no sign of ovulation :-( I wish I could have some sign I’m fertile and my body doesn’t hate me... I was clockwork 31 days before copper coil now I don’t know what’s going on :-(

Vanilladream · 07/04/2019 09:17

Kiskacsa: Have you tried ovulation tests yet? I bought cheapys on Amazon last time trying. X

mrsawhite · 07/04/2019 09:18

AF has arrived. On to the next month then!

TrulyMiss · 07/04/2019 09:19

I think my body is gearing up for a third lh surge/attempt at ovulation 😔 Will know for sure in a few days but so frustrating!!! All the effort the last two times is probably for nothing!

Kiskacsa · 07/04/2019 11:50

@vanilladream - daily IC opks show low LH levels constantly, I also have ovusense temping (doing bbt as well but it doesn’t seem very accurate) - nothing points to ovulating so far... now in CD20

Kiskacsa · 07/04/2019 11:52

@coastaldreamer - how’s it looking for you dear?

Kiskacsa · 07/04/2019 11:52

@mrsawhite sorry to hear that :-( when is your DH back?

Coastaldreamer · 07/04/2019 11:58

@Kiskacsa did one more test this morning. BFN and feels like AF on her way :(

Moving on from this month and here's to a 2020 baby x

How's you?

Sorry for AF @mrsawhite

ducksandacorns · 07/04/2019 14:39

Hello everyone. Sorry not been on here much, trying to catch up now!

I'm on CD 11, is this too early for a positive OPK? First month using them!
