TWW STARTING!

[Mymedusa24]

One dpo today, ovulation confirmed by positive opk. Started taking Fertilty Support for Her this cycle and hit my peak at 200 on Friday morning and experienced a cramping pain on the left side of my abdomen later that evening (first time I’ve ever had ovulation pain before)! Started cycle 5 this month! BBT is also beginning to climb! Anyone starting their ttw?!! Eagerly waiting to see what will become of this month!

@keanubelieves - thank you for that :) can I ask how short it was when you got your BFP? Xx

@ELW85 just checked as i kept a diary (geek) and i actually got my bfp at 11dpo if counting from the day after ov, and that was the day my af was due. Not sure when ur actually meant to count from! but based on that and the last year or so my lp is definitely less than 14 days most of the time x

Honestly, I've conceived 3 times with an lp of 9/10. It is possible x

@Hopeful2020 Uh huh! And as you should! I agree with you that we’re not out until AF arrives! And oh wow, well I think that would be good to take into consideration! Lol, although I know or have heard (I should say) every pregnancy can be different! 🙂

My cramps are like almost non-existent, just in flashes (here one second and gone the next). My back Is hurting more & more too (which is something I don’t deal with in a regular cycle). CM is still watery, breasts are still sensitive, and my cervix is staying very high and soft. Temps are staying high too! 🙂

@ELW85 counting from Ov is the right way to calculate your LP so 11 days would be accurate! 🙂

@treaclepie19 - that’s great to know, thank you so much! Did it take you many cycles to conceive?
I know I shouldn’t be comparing myself but I’m just feeling a bit low x

@keanubelieves - I’m a total nerd for data and tracking too, so we’re in good company, haha! X

@Mymedusa24 - thanks, I thought it was! There (as always) was conflicting advice on the apps/internet!

@ELW85
1st pregnancy took 4 cycles - miscarried
2nd pregnancy 5 cycles - DS who is 3yo
3rd pregnancy 1st cycle! - DS2 who we lost (termination for medical reasons)

Completely understandable, I hope next month is your month!

@Treaclepie19 - thank you so much for sharing that and I’m so, so sorry for your losses. X

OK, so mood has taken a massive dip today and I'm feeling knackered (despite sleeping for 9 hours last night). I actually feel like I want to have a nap.

I'm convincing myself that I'm not pg, as lots of this could also be pms now. I'm so torn between testing early and getting the disappointment out of the way, or waiting.

Oops sorry everybody for the same message posting three times! 😑

@ELW85 thank you lovely ❤

I'm giving in and having a g&t or 3. I'm driving myself mad wondering if I may be pregnant and since it's another week until testing I'm going to just act as normal.
I figure I've done the same in 3 pregnancies and had 3 different outcomes so why not.

@Treaclepie19 - I’ve let my hair down with some treats that my DH came back with!
He surprised me with a huge bunch of roses and peonies, my fave Ben and Jerry’s and some sourdough. In a carb-coma and feeling loads better!

Got everything crossed for you for when you test next week!!

@Treaclepie19
Great news, glad you're feeling rough! 😂 (One of the only times you would say that!)
Each pregnancy is different though - times before I've had no symptoms or loads of symptoms, so it's all just a waiting game!

I'm going to try and assume I'm not, although hopeful, as it feels like it would just be too lucky. Will see on Monday 🤞

There's so many variables, even if we know the day we likely ovulated, still all a bit of a guess as to how long it could be bobbing around, implantation etc etc.
I think I've only had BFP from the day period was due or actually late so there's probably not even any point in me testing early!

@ELW85
Aww that's lovely, he sounds like a keeper!
Enjoy the indulgence, glad you're feeling a bit better x

@Mymedusa24
Ooh that sound promising, excited for you!
I've had no cramps today, and cm/vd is nothing noteworthy - I keep getting that slightly sticky feeling like you expect period to be there when going to the loo.
Don't know what else bleed & cramping could be if not implantation, if it wasn't for that I'd be sure I was out of the running! Time will tell 🤞 x

@ELW85 aww what a sweetheart! That's so lovely :) Thanks :)

@Hopeful2020 😂 thanks! Hehe.

No gin here after all. We have an upset 3yo!
In bed already catching up on Jane the Virgin.

@MummyMilla I’d like to encourage you to wait if you can to hold off from testing! We don’t have too much longer now!!! Sorry to hear that though! Hope you can get some rest, and have a better day tomorrow!! 🙂

@ELW85 Your welcome, and aww that is SO SWEET of your DH!!! ❤️ Glad to hear you’re doing better! 😃

@Hopeful2020 Thank you so much! 😊 I haven’t had any cramps but the one this morning myself! Thought I’d be expecting more (as pms cramps always start hitting me a few days before AF). Are you expecting to have cramps? And hmm well hopefully it’s a good sign! A few days ago I felt the same and kept checking myself!
But fingers crossed that’s exactly what it was!!!
😃😃😃

Thanks for the words of encouragement @Mymedusa24 .

I've now got what feels like a constant dull ache in my lower tummy + back. Fairly certain that it's af as I get nearer (due Sunday). Boobs are still tender, which has been a constant since before ovulation.

If af does arrive Sunday I think I'll go and speak to GP about fertility. I'm 40 in 18 months and so realistically, I know that time isn't on my side...

@MummyMilla Well hopefully she won’t come! Prayers everything will go well for you though whatever the outcome may be!! 🙂

@mymedusa24 I've just got what I think is implantation bleeding! Very light pink when I wipe and it will explain the dull ache I've got!! Af not due until Sunday and a different colour than I've had before...

Didn't get this with either of my boys but I'm seeing it as a good sign! 🙌🏼

@MummyMilla Oh my goodness!!!! 🤗
And you’re 10 DPO right!!? If so,
IB is right in the timing to be expected! 😃
And that really would explain the dull ache too! Aww that’s awesome news!!! ❤️

@Mymedusa24 yes 10 days. DH is out at a work do and despite feeling pooped I'm too excited to nod off!! Oh gawd, I'm going to feel even more knackered tomorrow now 😂
