Just looking for buddies to get me through the tww..

My app says I’m 2dpo but didn’t catch my exact peak just high fertility on clear blue and used cheapies to back up!

Having cramps and sore breasts but could still be ovulation?

Have been trying since around July 💗

@Sunflower2019 I've only used cb opk so don't have experience of your ones. Could be a few things- perhaps you have ovulated and this is a second weaker surge. Maybe you didn't quite ovulate 4 days ago and your body is trying again. Or maybe like someone else said it can be positive if you are pregnant, but you sound too early for that. Or maybe your surge has lasted a long time? I would stick with the dates you are already working by, but might not hurt to DTD tonight just I'm case. And maybe stop poas for now ;)

Hope your nan is ok and not too poorly. Is she in hospital?

Sunflower2019 · 01/11/2019 10:25

@Katie1109 I know very odd.. my opks went dark around CD12-13 but missed peak.. then started to fade out, looking at my app period due 11th. Had smiley faces for days from cd9. Maybe my hormones are still all out of whack? My breasts are still sore and been having some weird cramps, but maybe related to something else. Thanks for your kind words :) xx

@WooMaWang I wanted to see the progression and the dip so thought I’d keep testing but they went faint and now getting stronger.. want as much info as poss if I go to drs. How are you? I’m hoping she is in good spirits today, lost my grandad 3 years ago and that was so hard!

Oh here is my chart.. I’ll keep doing the deed @Skyla01 😊 yes maybe a long surge I guess.

No she is at home, my dad has moved back from Cyprus to be with her. Always hard seeing someone who had so much energy go down hill.

How are you? Xx

Maybe you are haven't ovulated yet then. It could be that you're going to ovulate tomorrow (and have a longer cycle than usual).

What app are you using?

WooMaWang · 01/11/2019 11:03

I hope your visit today is good.

I'm feeling a bit rubbish today. I think the bloated and not quite crampy feeling might be bowel related (TMI) and just standard for this part of any cycle. Progesterone likes to slow things down.

My arm is still itchy though. I might need to get some hydrocortisone from the pharmacy.

Sunflower2019 · 01/11/2019 11:05

I’m using Premom.. I just have never ovulated this late Confused my cycles aren’t long enlightening generally for this to happen. Think I’m gonna leave it and see what happens 😂 only 10 days away from af so not long to know either way. @WooMaWang xx

OP posts:
WooMaWang · 01/11/2019 11:20

That's probably a reasonable plan. It isn't that long to wait.

I think I'm rubbish at waiting. I seem to have convinced myself that reading up on reproductive hormones will somehow make the time pass quicker.

It doesn't help that I'm not sure that I really know anything about what my cycle is actually like. I've only had 2 periods since I had the mirena removed and I'm not convinced the first one was a real one. This one looks like it might be 28 days (assuming the same number of days dpo as last time) but who knows? I guess with an LH surge on the 27, I'll get a definitive answer on a test taken on the assumption it's a 28 day cycle anyway, even if I don't get AF until CD34 again.

Sunflower2019 · 01/11/2019 16:59

I’m soo confused this month, have these twinges in my ovary since ovulation and they aren’t going and tonight it’s like a stabbing pain in right ovary? Boobs are aching too.. no way I can be getting symptoms but somethings going on... also I have cm which has usually dried up! Prob overthinking but first time in cycle I’ve had these.. bizarre xxx

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 01/11/2019 17:01

Hoping it’s not a cyst or something Hmm

Skyla01 · 01/11/2019 17:48

@OP I wouldn't worry too much, I don't think it will be anything serious. Lots of hormones flying around in the 2ww plus we are extra sensitive to our symptoms! I've notice lack of symptoms this month too- I usually have mild cramps for a few days around now but nothing so far... I'm 7dpo now. I start the 2ww optimistic and imagining that BFP, and then week 2 I go the other way and feel like I'm just waiting for AF to come.

Sunflower2019 · 02/11/2019 07:47

@Skyla01 yes same here!! You have a little less time than me to wait, I’m 5dpo. Woke up up to bad back Confused falling apart at the minute, strange as I had a dream that I had a car accident last night..

Mrsrobinson247 · 02/11/2019 09:11

@Sunflower2019 I heard vivid dreams were a good sign. I have had absolutely no symptoms at all, but only 4 days in to 2ww.

Sunflower2019 · 02/11/2019 09:13

@Mrsrobinson247 i would hope but I always have weird dreams 😂 went back to my notes from 5dpo last month and my symptoms are similar bar this constant cramping and cm.. so not as hopeful. Xx

OP posts:
Skyla01 · 02/11/2019 10:17

@Sunflower2019 hopefully it's still way too early for genuine symptoms anyway. The tww just seems to drag! Although my period usually comes 12 or 13dpo so my tww a bit shorter than average. That's why I don't bother testing early- af appears soon enough anyway. I'm feeling not too bad atm but last cycle it was the last few days I went a bit loopy. Going to try and reign it in this time. An exaggerated emotional rollercoaster does not help this process!
How is everyone else doing?

Sunflower2019 · 02/11/2019 10:25

I only have around 8/9 day’s until af so mines quite short too! @Skyla01

Just have this constant stingy weird feeling in lower right side.. but I’ve had several Utis this year so maybe related!

Xx

What’s everyone’s cm like after ovulation? I normally dry up but haven’t at all since ovulation?! X @WooMaWang @Mrsrobinson247 @Katie1109 @ceejla @Skyla01

Hey everyone! just wondering if I can hop on this thread?

I'm ttc baby #3 since July. Currently 4 dpo and due af on 13th November

Missdrifter · 02/11/2019 17:52

Hi ladies can I Join in too please? I think I am roughly 3DPO and on cycle 4 TTC our first. With each arrival of the dreaded AF I get more disheartened even though I know it’s still early days. How often have you all been DTD during fertile period? It’s hard to know what’s enough and what’s too much 💁. I am so bloated but I think that’s more to do with two weekends in a row of eating out, whoops!

Louu99 · 02/11/2019 18:14

Hi everyone! Can I join in too?

I'm currently 2dpo on my first cycle of TTC #1.
It's all very exciting but I'm not the most patient so the wait is going to be terrible!
AF due on 17th so if she's late arriving, I'll be testing around that time 🙂 x

KaylieMariie · 02/11/2019 18:55

@missdrifter our dtd seems to have worked out as 2 days on 1 say off 😂😂 we didnt plan it that way it just seemed to happen!

WooMaWang · 03/11/2019 00:12

I think it may be that you've only just had your LH surge @Sunflower2019. You thought you'd missed it, but maybe you only just had it.

Sunflower2019 · 03/11/2019 08:14

@KaylieMariie hey!! Welcome! Of course 😊 I’ve been trying since July and due af around 11th (well supposedly but having A weird cycle as you’ve prob read)
Good luck!!! X

OP posts:
Sunflower2019 · 03/11/2019 08:15

@Missdrifter I know it is and each cycle you feel different so clutch onto that!

I’m seriously bloating too???! Could be a good sign tho?

Welcome btw :) x
