Can ye add more please x

Hi all

Joining this following an unsuccessful September of TTC.

Stats are:
26y/o
TTC baby no 1
Cycle 7 now
Due 22/10/19 for AF

Every month that goes by I feel like just stopping TTC as it's crushing to see the negative tests. I also didn't get any positive OPKs this month which is frustrating - I have had them at roughly the same time each month so far although I must say my testing this month was lax. Sore boobs are starting but I always convince myself I'm PG with various symptoms so trying not to get excited.
I know it's only cycle 7 but all of my group have babies, constantly getting asked by work/family when will I be pregnant and constantly hearing stories of 'I got pregnant cycle 1 from DTD'. I am not jealous of other people getting PG I am just starting to worry as I feel like it'll never happen. Also I am due a fertility clinic appt end of the month so panicking about that as I had slightly low progesterone (but ok levels of FSH/LSH I think it's called). Sorry for the huge entry message 🤦🏾‍♀️

Welcome to the group @GalaxyGirl24 😊

I'm really confused, I got another low reading on my CB opk this morning but last night when I went to the loo when I wiped there was a small amount of slimy brown blood. There was nothing there this morning with fmu, but I went to the loo about an hour or so later and I had some more. I'm confused as to what it could be as I've not had it before.

I have just been to the loo again and I've got lots of cm, looks like jelly, with more of a light pink tinge to it. Any idea what it could be? According to my apps I'm in my fertile window, although my opks have been low since Wednesday 🤔 I'm CD11 today...

@Treaclepie19 How are you today?

@GalaxyGirl24 Welcome Its not an easy process. I am very envious of those who get pregnant easily. What OPK's are you using?

@Tamalama I had that a few times around the same CD. It's prob just old blood. I get my EWCM then after that so you should start getting the EWCM in next day or 2 and then your static. I wouldn't worry that its still reading low at CD 11 xx

I ended up leaving work yesterday over my cramps and caved and took a ponstan. 11 DPO today no cramps as of yet but boobs extremely sore. I hope my cramps and AF stays away but I doubt it. Plan is if AF doesn't arrive by Mon (14 DPO) then I'll test Tuesday morning.

@Sophieb15
Good luck! Fingers crossed AF stays away 🤞🏼

So I think I ovulated on Weds afternoon, had sharp pains and lots of EWCM!!

What I think has happened is BFP I had at start of week was leftover hormone from CP last month. I had a BFN Tuesday and Weds morning. Is that even possible?

Period was due yesterday, no sign. It's annoying because if I did OV then I'm out because we have dtd at all.

@pottypotamus What CD are you on? Do you feel like AF is coming?

@Tamalama Thank you

@Sophieb15 I've been using a mix of IC's/CB Digital but tbh I may start charting body temp also as I feel like I'm missing info. I've only ever got a positive OPK in a morning whereas it tells you it's better to test later in the day - just doesn't work for me. What about you?

@Sophieb15
I am CD29. I do feel like AF is coming. Like a heavy feeling and achey upper thighs which is normal. I'm all spotty as well. Not sure what the hell is going on. If AF doesn't come for another 2 weeks then I must have OV late.

@GalaxyGirl24 I used CB digital and always tested with FMU and it worked for me. I'm on cycle 9 nearly 10 when AF arrives Sunday. So now since I know I roughly O CD 15- CD 17 so I just use cheapies now and when I see the line getting a bit darker I test 3 times that day and then it normally gets lighter the next day so I stop. I get O pains so once they are gone I know I've O'd.

@pottypotamus Whats the longest cycle you've had?

Ahhh okay @Sophieb15 that's a lot of testing! Maybe I need to up my testing game !!!! I'm hoping beyond hope I don't get AF next Tuesday but I already think I will. Tempted to test early but it it's a BFN I'll just get down about it!

@GalaxyGirl24 A BFN is worse than geting AF for me so I'm staying strong until I'm late but I doubt I will be feel like I could get them any minute. Maybe Cycle 10 will be my lucky one.

Fingers crossed you don't get AF

@Sophieb15 af is knocking me about 😩😴 It's so heavy again... just waiting for it to go now so we can start again :)

@Sophieb15 fingers crossed for you too 🤞🏽x

@Sophieb15
My longest cycle is about 32 days but that was after having having my dd when they were just coming back again over a year ago.
Who knows what's going on 🤷🏻‍♀️
Just gonna wait for AF to turn up.

Hey guys can I join?? Ttc number 2 - 8 years later. The last 2 months havent worked...I feel crampy now so af will probably come tomorrow I'm guessing. At about 10dpo I had a bit of white/brown discharge just on one wipe with some cramps that was on Tuesday, it seemed so promising but these cramps seem to much like af.
If my period comes I'm next fertile from the 30th October

How is everyone getting along and where are you in your cycle? X

So I got my static smiley this morning. It went straight from 3 days of low to high. We haven't dtd for a couple of weeks though due to us both feeling unwell, and hubby had to have an operation. He's out tonight so we can't dtd then, best we can do is tomorrow evening when our DD has gone to bed. I've got cramps and lower backache, which started yesterday evening although no ewcm, just a big blob of jelly yesterday evening. I'm frustrated because we'll probably end up dtd once I've ovulated 😕☹️

BFN at 8/9DPO. Not even disappointed because it's so early 😂

How are you feeling @Sophieb15? X

@Tamalama even if you do tomor it will prob be o day so be perfect timing ❤️ so day after too 😁
I'm ok boobs absolutely killing me cramps seem to be gone thought I'd get AF today but I didn't prob come tomorr actually due tomorr at 13 DPO secretly hoping it doesn't show tomor 🤞🏼 then I'll only have to get through Monday (14DPO) then in my mind I'll officially be late 🙈

@Ellsbells112 welcome that could have been implantation so 🤞🏼for you

@Blossomingflower94 stop testing early 🙈🙈🙈

@Sophieb15 is it bad that we just put our DD in her cot with my phone so she could watch Peppa Pig whilst we dtd in record speed 🙈 I told DH that I got my static smiley and it was his suggestion! Well also do it tomorrow and Monday just to be sure. Hopefully tomorrow will be a bit more romantic 😂

Finger crossed that af stays away. Sore boobs could be an extremely good sign? X

I know I got my static smiley but I also always go by the two lines as well when I take the test out from the holder, and they're definitely the same 😊

@Tamalama Whoo hoo it's great that ye got it in if ye do the 3 days then ye can't do anymore 😁 we put out DD to sleep one day last month just so we could get it in and she's nearly 4 🙈🙈
I always take mine out of holder too to check the line that's a def positive. X

@Tamalama yesssssss
