Starting over in July

[Hayd88]

@Bezalelle @Carysmatic @Namechangeymcnamechange11 @Sunflower2019 shall we start over and go through the next couple of weeks together, along with whoever else would like to join?

Sounds like we are all TTC, some of us doing so after chemical pregnancies in June. All emotional and strained but looking forward to trying again??

No idea what my cycle will be like this month but let's see what happens

Xxx

@NavyBerry there is a line on this mornings done it at 5.30am but it looks fainter so I’m confused!!! Think I’m gonna leave it and re test tomorrow night! Shouldn’t really of tested early that’s good for the green light, it’s exciting!!! Good luck

Hope everyone is else doing okay? Xx

DH and I have taken a break from TTC this month. Too much stress going on - I'm a bit gutted to not have any hope this month but am hoping it will do us the world of good - as you say @Bezalelle it will sort of be nice not wondering and symptom spotting for a few weeks (although waiting 4 weeks now till next ovulation seems like an age away!!!!).

Hope everyone else has some luck this month!!!

Can I join this month?

TTC first baby. Last Pill May time, so Month 2 trying.

Think I ovulated Thursday (yesterday). Didn't get around to dtd yesterday, but did Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday so hopefully something still around.

Well girls not sure what’s going on but definitely think I’m pregnant 🤦🏽‍♀️ Done a test last night and had a faint line.. done one this morning and was viable straight away, think it’s early days or the tests aren’t very strong but I’ll post a piccy! Xxx

Have ordered some frers from boots so wil update later.. freaking out a bit but trying to not to think too much into it

Not sure what to think but going crazy

@Sunflower2019 I can deff see a line there! Congratulations

I can see a line too, Sun!

How's everyone else?

DP and I DTD last night. Of course, I'm now worrying that I actually ovulated on Thursday (when I got that gush - sorry, TMI!) of EWCM. However, going by my mood (horny ) I'm hoping that ovulation will happen tomorrow as predicted.

The frer looks negative and I thought they are meant to be the most sensitive? So confused x x

Finally today I got two positive opks which means I will ovulate in the next 12-24 hours 😄 last cycle I got my positive opks CD 13 and I'm now CD 17 so defiantly later than normal. Good to finally know that I'm ovulating ☺️

How's everyone else getting on? Xx

That's great news @Carysmatic!!

My ovulation is predicted today, but I'm not sure if it's happened... Felt some twinges earlier. Luckily I'm staying at DP's until Wednesday so if it's a bit late, it won't be a problem.

@Bezalelle are you doing any opks or anything? Just DTD with your DP as much as possible while you're staying with him. Me and DH have been at it loads 😂 so hopefully in with a good chance this month.

I'm not tracking OPK @Carysmatic, but I might do next month if no luck on this cycle.

DP wasn't feeling well last night after a day out in the sun, so we didn't DTD. I was sad at first but then I realised he isn't a sperm machine, and since we did it on Saturday and Friday nights, and if we do it today, there should be plenty knocking around for when the egg drops, so to speak

Hope everyone else is doing ok x

@Bezalelle yeah sperms can last like 5 days! I'm sure there will be plenty of those bad boys swimming around 😂 I'm not looks forward to this TWW, it's always pretty daunting being at the beginning of the TWW! Really going try and not symptom spot but after having my chemical last month I'm kinda more aware what it may feel like to be pg, with all the nausea I felt and the creamy white CM that I was getting.

How you getting on @Hayd88

@Carysmatic we took a break from TTC this month in the end. Too much stress going on at the moment moving house and work. I'm gutted and it upsets me to NOT have any hope for this month, but trying to concentrate on other things. And believe it's for a reason!? I'm really hoping it works out for you guys this month though obviously!

@Hayd88 sorrr to hear this. I totally understand. I almost didn't want to try again this month because I was still processing what happened last cycle. But having the move as well to add more stress I totally get it. I think it's normal to take a break after a CP or miscarriage so don't be too down about it. You can get back to it next month. Stress isn't good for baby making anyways. Good luck for when you try again xxx

Ah no. Just lost my post when getting onto the train and my phone switched onto the WiFi. Boo.

Starting again.

Officially in the TWW. I was scheduled to ovulate yesterday. I haven't been testing it because last month, the line never seemed to go any darker, but I still ovulated because I had a period 🤷
Managed to DTD Sunday night but not yesterday (well we tried, but stupid hot weather 😠 still 19 degrees at 10pm wtf??)
Hoping that they were still swimming around when I ovulated yesterday. DH is still smoking and more than ever (although that's still not a lot compared to some, I do worry about the quality of his swimmers 🤣).
We will see.

@carysmatic - is that an app that tells you the level of the LH?? Please do tell, that looks really useful!

Fingers crossed @Namechangeymcnamechange11

Who is going to test when? I have got my tests results back. All clear. We can TTC. A bit anxious really. My peace will end with my ovulation on 1 August.

Good news that your test was clear, @NavyBerry!

Luckily I'm going to be staying at DP's again in 2 weeks' time when AF is due, so I'll test with him on the 4th or 5th August.

Trying not to symptom spot at such an early stage (I think I ovulated on Saturday) but the tips of my nips (!) are sore to the touch today.

I'm just waiting for my next cycle, due today and had a bfn at the weekend. Can't bring myself to test again as it feels like a waste!

We have now been trying 8 months and so starting to worry as I'm 37... but the silver lining of last month's CP is at least I know I can get pregnant.

However, the good news is I have been prescribed clomid for my next 3 cycles which I can start taking with my next AF, so that seems like a positive step 😬 anyone else here on clomid or similar??

AF is due 5th August for me. Going to try and hold off on testing as I'd end up spending a fortune otherwise much easier said than done obviously... I just need to distract myself with something. I'm going to try and have a really productive 2 weeks and try and get all my odds and ends jobs done so I'm not thinking too much about it 🤔

@doris19 - no experience other than hearing that it increases chances of multiples I think I heard it encourages ovulation or something? Fingers crossed it helps you 🤞

Oh and the other reason I shall try to hold off testing is that when I found out with DC1, is that AF was due on the Fri, I tested on the Mon after getting back off holiday and even 3 days late and using FRER it was only an FLP instead of a BFP.

@Namechangeymcnamechange11 yeah it's a tracker app but it lets you take pictures of opks and it tells you if it's low, high and when it's at peek. Its called Femometer. You can check pg tests in the same way as well. I'm now officially I the tww too, when's AF due for you? I'm due 3/4th August.

Good news about your test @NavyBerry now for the wait to ovulate. Fx 🤞🏻

I'm starting to symptom spot already. I can't help it. I'm only like 3DPO and I can't help but compare to last month when we did get pregnant before the CP. last month around this time I was getting sharp pains in my nipples which I've started noticing again today as well as being really bloated today. I know I shouldn't try and compare but really can't help it. Really hoping for this month to be our month.

Thanks @carysmatic. I shall try it out if this month doesn't work for me.

AF due 5th for me, such a long wait 😖

I'm keeping everything crossed for you that this is your month 🤞

Hi all.

I'm heading home now after a few days with DP. Going for my second acupuncture session when I get home.

Had some twinges down there this morning, and hiccups, but have vowed not to symptom spot too much. I was so anxious last month.
