Hi there! I have just had my positive OPK and starting a TWW. Who would like to wait together? I think I will start testing on 5th October.
Age: 29
TTC: Second baby
Ovulation: 25 oct
AF due: 5 Oct
So far I have had a miscarriage in May, then a chemical in August. I'm taking Iron supplements, Omega, Folic acid and Primrose oil. I had all possible tests done and basically all is fine and I was just a bit misfortunate. The only thing that worries me is a quite short luteal phase. But maybe it's just how my body is.

Hello
I'm also testing the 5th October, I think I ovulated yesterday so I'll be about 10dpo by then. For some reason feel really positive this month!
I'm 27, TTC #1 and on cycle #4
So sorry to hear about your losses. I had a chemical in early August as well, all losses are heart breaking.
How long is your luteal phase? I think since youve conceived then the length shouldn't be a problem, but I'm not expert😂

Hi @MrssC92 I'm glad I'm not alone! I'm quite positive this month hence the name of the thread!Grin My LP is about 9-10 days. I actually decided to enjoy this waiting period and going to test when I want and not limit myself. I've already got dozens of cheap tests and also some Clear Blue ones Grin

Hopefully this positive feeling is our bodies way of telling us that this month is the month!
Ah I'm the opposite. Last month I tested and drove myself crazy looking for faint lines that weren't there so this month I'm tryinh to wait until the 5th.... but if im being completely honest i totally expect to cave and buy some ready to start testing at 8dpo and every day until I get my bfp haha what cheap tests do you use?

NavyBerry · 26/09/2019 18:34

@MrssC92 just those from Boots and Pound Stretcher. I really likes their OPKs so thought pregnancy ones could be good as well. Fingers crossed for us and anyone who'd like to join 🙂

Hi @MrssC92 how are you doing? Any symptoms? I must say I have zero which makes me doubt my positive thinking. Do you think you will manage to wait till 5 Oct? I'm testing tomorrow hoping for the faintest of the faint lines

Hello thought I would join! I'm 29, TTC number 2, came off the pill 1st July. I've had 2 cycles of 29 then 33 days. I'm not doing OPK's but think I ovulated day 19. DTD every other day from day 5. AF due Friday and yesterday started spotting brown discharge and some pink on wiping. No bright red yet. Thinking It could be implantation bleeding due don't want to get my hopes up.

NavyBerry · 02/10/2019 18:04

@KateF1107 welcome! I'm scared to think it's not my month. Just checked my temperature and it's dropped. Usually it stays a bit higher after ovulation. May be a sign that af is on its way. When do you want to test?

Just thought I'd join in. I'm due Af 5th October. Definitely won't be testing before then. I was feeling positive but now feel I'm out cos I was cranky today and now I have a couple of spots 🙈 last month I wasn't cranky and still wasn't pregnant so shouldn't really symptom spot but it's so hard x

Sardi28 · 02/10/2019 19:52

I'm testing Monday girls!
I really don't know if I can wait till then though! It's such a weird time, and I can't stop myself feeling gutted with the bfn 🙈

I'm TTC #2 my DS is 3 ☺️
Think I'm on cycle 3 CD 22 of a 28 day cycle 😂😂👍🏻😂😂

Nic555 · 02/10/2019 22:26

@Sardi28 I'd hold out till Monday. I've seen so many posts when people have tested got a BFN but then ended up pregnant or the test has just confused them even more. I'm on cycle 3 and not tested any cycle yet x

Whyhaveidonethis · 02/10/2019 22:51

I'm due AF on 6th, pretty sure I'm out this month but trying to remain positive. I've had 3 CPs since May, one every other month so May, July, then again in September. If the pattern hold out I will get a BFN this month. Trying not to test, but will probably cave

Sophiiee93 · 03/10/2019 10:58

Hi all, for those that are out for October, I've got a November bus rolling over here:

November Bus - testing first week of November 2019 www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/3706224-november-bus-testing-first-week-of-november-2019

Don't mean to hijack this thread!

Nic555 · 03/10/2019 13:09

Anyone else struggling with the TWE? I was fine until the last couple of days 🙈 now I keep checking my cervix for signs ive conceived. Swear I'm the only person who does this

Roll on Saturday when I'll know for sure and will probably join the November bus xx

MrssC92 · 03/10/2019 18:49

@Nic555 I am the exact same. I told myself I'd be chilled out about it this month but oh my how wrong was I 🙈 I can't stop symptom spotting and touching my cervix

NavyBerry · 03/10/2019 18:52

I have a feeling af will come any minute now. My temperature is low. Breasts are very sore and I have some cramps. I did test this morning with some cheapies, all bfn. I'll try again tomorrow morning

OP posts:
NavyBerry · 03/10/2019 18:56

@MrssC92 @Nic555 oh I know what you mean and I even know what it is supposed to feel like but with my last cp it changed so quickly that I'm not checking it this time. I wish this tww was easier! 😒

OP posts:
Nic555 · 03/10/2019 18:57

Just had pink spotting when I went to the toilet 😭 so I've gone from last month worrying my cycle was too long to now having a shorter cycle but I'm now worried my luteal phase is too short as I'm only 10dpo last two months AF arrived 12 DPO. I'm glad I'm not the only cervix obsessed one here 😂

MrsLEB · 03/10/2019 19:00

@Nic555 @MrssC92 how is the cervix supposed to be if you've conceived? I've just been checking mine too 😂

NavyBerry · 03/10/2019 19:07

@MrsLEB very high, closed. When af comes it goes lower, softens and opens. Sounds strange but it does feel different

OP posts:
NavyBerry · 03/10/2019 19:09

@Nic555 I also have a short luteal phase. Apparently it is not great. I'm only 8 dpo today, cd 24 but last month af arrived on cd 25 🤷‍♀️

OP posts:
Nic555 · 03/10/2019 19:11

Just seems like you can't win. I said last month I'd be happy if I had shorter cycles now I have one I'm worried about something else. Just seen a thread that suggests vitamin b to increase your luteal phase so may try that x

Kaykay29 · 03/10/2019 19:25

Hey, I'm going to join in! I ovulated 29th September. I have 25 day cycles so I'm hoping to start testing from 7th October. Have a good feeling about this one. Good luck to you all x
