Ovulation day - 2ww just starting

Anyone fancy a little obsessing? 😂
I'm apparently ovulating today according to peak clearblue yesterday and my apps.
I never used to have such a long luteal phase as it was only 10 days so having to wait for 14 is going to drive me nuts 🙈

I had a look at Google and I think it's because I had a peak later than other cycles it is predicting af could start on those days.

Treaclepie19 · 08/11/2019 07:05

Had already started testing before I realised my period had started!
Fingers still crossed for you all 🤞

Ahhh sorry @treaclepie19. Here's to next month xxx

TigerJoy · 09/11/2019 08:07

Does anyone else take their basal temperature? Mine's just gone up a bit this morning...i think that might be a good sign...? I'm day 16...

Treaclepie19 · 09/11/2019 08:22

I have done in the past, it should rise to confirm ovulation and then some lucky people will notice another rise if they're pregnant or it will just stay high. When af comes it should be back down.

Thanks @treaclepie19

Gigi318 · 10/11/2019 12:29

Hey ladies, how are we all? I've been really relaxed this month, done opks and caught peak, now in tww and feel chilled. Xx

Treaclepie19 · 10/11/2019 13:13

That's brilliant @Gigi318! Fingers crossed :)

I'm on cd3 now and our 4yo seems to have a sickness bug 😭
I reckon we will be taking a break from ttc until the new year.

Fingers crossed #Gigi318 doing ok, got peak on cycle day 13 got the start of backache with dull cramps so thinking af may start sometime this week obviously hoping not! Managed two days of high and first day of peak, been reading after you get a peak it's recommended DTD for the 3 days following so if it's not happened this time then definitely going to try and do that next time. Trying to not think too much about it and doing some jewellery and Keyring making, becoming slightly obsessed with buying from Etsy!

Oh no @Treaclepie19 hope your little one is ok.

TigerJoy · 12/11/2019 07:10

How's it going ladies? Any news? Any symptoms?

Lauraliverpool · 12/11/2019 09:49

@TigerJoy backache last few days and dull crampy feeling hoping not af but think it will be soon. Was reading about people taking CQ10 vitamins TTC and might try these if I'm not pregnant, starting to worry a bit now that I might not be ovulating. How are you doing?

TigerJoy · 12/11/2019 17:08

I'm the same, not had mid cycle bleeding the last 2 cycles but test in the summer showed I ovulated then...

I have quite bad abdominal pain anyway at the mo so not sure what's going on. Feel much like normal otherwise! Af not due until a week Sat so I have aaaaaages to wait...

Lauraliverpool · 12/11/2019 19:15

It seems to have increased today so just think it's a matter of days before af shows. Starting to get me down now. I only know that of a couple of months ago I ovulated and that was the blood test that was done at the hospital and have no idea if I have been since, I'm considering having a private fertility scan where they do a thorough look at everything like uterus, the lining, ovaries etc. Hate all the waiting that comes with this, arrgh!

TigerJoy · 12/11/2019 20:45

I got that scan at the request of my gp, maybe they can refer you?

Lauraliverpool · 12/11/2019 20:58

Did you @TigerJoy? I'm wondering if my GP would refer me as they're aware of what's happened. Just been reading about various vitamins that are supposed to help with conception etc.

TigerJoy · 12/11/2019 22:49

Might be just because I'm basically geriatric. I had blood tests for hormones and internal ultrasound. Showed all bits basically in working order except for condition which makes conception and carrying to term harder 🙄

I've since been referred to NHS fertility clinic and a condition for being seen is having had all these things done so think gp was getting ducks in a row

Apparently they can do other tests e.g. check whether fallopian tubes are blocked.

No idea of course if they'll actually offer me any treatment as I'm well past the age for IVF on the NHS

Lauraliverpool · 13/11/2019 11:49

I'm 38 will be 39 next march, I had blood tests at the miscarriage clinic and they all came back normal, one of them was projesterone and it came back at 50 so I ovulated then but have no idea if I have been since and I know the only one to find out will be asking for the test to be done again. Just need to know if everything is ok and to top it off I think af has shown her face. Surely they're going to do something.

TigerJoy · 13/11/2019 23:00

At the risk of sounding silly if you've ovulated that month isn't it likely you are every month? That's what I've assumed. Then again I've always been way too optimistic about everything

Sorry about af ❤

I'm beyond knackered and been going to bed really early - slept for more than an hour on the sofa this evening and feel like I'm getting af although it's not due for 8 days. Knackered and getting lower back / abdominal cramps

Lauraliverpool · 14/11/2019 05:59

I'm really hoping so that I am just got to be positive, onto a new cycle after af. I've been feeling so tired lately too. Is this recently you've been feeling tired and the backache,cramps?

TigerJoy · 14/11/2019 07:04

Well I've been getting over a bug so hard to tell but definitely not ill and the last 3 evenings I am just completely wiped out after work. Normally after dinner I'd watch some tv or read a book but I've been too tired and gone straight to bed / slept on the sofa then gone to bed.

Treaclepie19 · 14/11/2019 09:56

I'm off for a bit ladies. We're back to not ttc. It's too painful at the moment as we approach our little ones birthday. 11 months since we lost him today.

Wishing you all the best Flowers

Lauraliverpool · 14/11/2019 16:12

Could possibly you getting over the bug can take some time to start feeling back to normal again.

Lauraliverpool · 14/11/2019 16:15

@Treaclepie19 thinking of you today and really hope everything works out for you in the near future. Lots of love to you. Xxx

TigerJoy · 15/11/2019 13:14

Ah I'm so sorry @Treaclepie19. Best of luck for the future and big hugs xxx

Treaclepie19 · 03/12/2019 11:42

Thank you ❤ I'm awaiting af still. We didnt dtd at all this month so its just a matter of time but obviously it's already 2 days late.

How are you doing @Lauraliverpool?
@TigerJoy still keeping everything crossed for you :)
