December bus - testing first week of december

[ceebee21]

Hi all,

AF arrived today so thought I would start a new thread....feel free to join.

First cycle since MMC and ERPC on 1st October, following BFP straight after implant removal.

Bit odd for me, first proper AF in a few years.

Hoping this is the month!

@LoveRainbow02 if it's not TMI, can I ask what your CM is like currently? I'm 4dpo I think and have noticed some more EWCM today after it being very watery and slippy last couple of days. I'm convinced hoping that it not drying up could be a good sign?

@Shuckle they must make a fortune from us! I'm definitely a main sponsor of their office Christmas party!! 😂 x

@Shuckle the FRER that is!! They're not cheap but I buy them of eBay to save a few £ x

@Shuckle I have cm when I wipe, not easy to see when wiping but I can feel it if you know what I mean. I have been trying to check my cervix position too and upon doing this I have thick white sticky cm. I've had this since the day after ovulation.

@AliSxo you should ask for a pop up banner with your name on in their head office 😂 I see Amazon isn't too bad on prices, but I'm going to try really really really really hard to resist the urge to POAS until AF is late! I might go buy some more cheapy OPKs from Poundland as you get 5 in a pack and pee on them to pretend 😂😂

@Shuckle 😂 they could name a meeting room after me 😂 well I'm 1DPO on Friday so let the tww begin xx going to google less this time round xx

Had my coil removed yesterday I'm definitely in the wrong group as I won't be pregnant by December but we are now officially TTC 🤞😁

@Mrs2018 stranger things have happened! Good luck on your TTC journey 😊

CD21 and another flashing smiley
That’s flashing smileys from CD17 till 21 ☹️ have I missed my LH surge day ?

@mrstwentyseven do you usually ovulate late? What CD did you start the CBs?

@Shuckle thank you so much 🤞😊

@Nic555 I have no doubt it would be amazing present for both of you!! Well let's see what decide mother nature for both of us.. Since how long are you TTC? Would it be your first pregnancy? xx

@HugeAgeGap So cool we are both on the same timing and let's keep positive this month it is the month! :) My first pregnancy I became pregnant DTD 2 days before ovulation... so Saturday DTD might work for you! I have TTC during now more than 5 months, DTD always around ovulation dates but so far nothing. I am wondering if this is because of thinking about it too much.. but so hard to not think about it when you have a strong pregnancy desire. :( This month I tried to keep busy in order to not concentrate my thoughts on it.. Let's see if it work. Let's keep us posted about symptoms. xx

@whatsthecraic91 - TTC is so much pressure! I can totally relate! I'm due to O today (according to this app I'm using not actually tracking it) DTD last night because I said we 'needed' to but it felt really weird - both DH and I were tired and I know if it wasn't the window I doubt either of us would have initiated anything. I'd have been upset though if we hadn't done it (especially if this cycle turns out not to be successful - I'm sure both of us would have be thinking what if?) But I also don't want it to be so mechanical! Arrgh! We both already agreed to DTD again tonight and probably tomorrow (DH is then way for the weekend) obviously to give us the best chance this month - i just hope tonight feels more like it normally is with us!

@Talcott2007 all the excuses I'd usually use I'm having to push aside, I had an eye infection last night I'm sure that wasn't very attractive but we had do DTD regardless!! Normally I'd be like no sorry hun my eye is sore but when you're in the fertile window it's so different compared to when we weren't TTC xx

Good luck for those approaching ovulation 🤞.

I promised myself I wouldnt symptom spot this time ttc but it's not going well and I'm only 7dpo. Caved this morning and poas simply because I'm obsessed 😂

@Talcott2007 it’s such hard work, we done SMEP right up until my positive, DTD that day and the next day and then gave up! Couldn’t do 3 in a row! Hopefully we have done enough 🤞🏼Good luck! 3DPO today this 2WW is dragging as always!!

@atouchoffrenchy we started trying in June after our wedding. This is cycle 5 I had a couple of long cycles at the beginning. Only felt back to normal in September x

@MrsTwentySeven have you been testing twice a day. I would have missed mine last month if u hadn't as it surged then went straight down. So you could have missed it x

So my opks have started to go dark again. Usually they are either stark white or have a really faint line after ovulation but the lh seems to be rising again for some reason. I took an opk tonight as I suddenly felt the same symptoms as ovulation even though I am 7dpo. I'm a little baffled lol. Any ideas?

@Nic555 does the flashing smiley still stay on? Like does that mean Lh surge happens and goes down but oestrogen levels drop down later on slowly ? Thanks that makes me feel a lot better!! X

Now that I don’t know if ovulated and if I did then I’m 5 dpo...
I have a crazy rash on my face which is unexplained ! Symptom spotting even without a proper DPO - I’m setting a new standard for crazy

Well as of tomorrow I'm 1DPO wahoo! 😂 I thought I'd be 3dpo but I've ovulated 2 days later than expected. I was planning on testing on 29/11 which is next Friday but not sure now as I'll only be 8DPO... I'll see how I feel 💕 hope everyone is ready for the TWW or if you're already in it I hope it flies by and hope we get some BFPs! Xx

@AliSxo the 2WW is dragging for me and I’m on 3 DPO 😫 I’m testing next Saturday 30th Nov I’ll be 12DPO - AF due Sun 1st, that’s the earliest I’ll test now as I’ve had too many BFN to count 😕

I’m not sure when to test. Last month leuteal phase was 11 days, which means AF due next Wednesday!

Love Rainbow...
Join the confused club with me😭 Flashing smiley CD 22 and increased CM....
Have I ovulate ...am I about to ? 32 day cycle this seems too late ?

@MrsTwentySeven yes if you missed your surge it'll still flash that's what happened to me when I missed it on the CB. Once it flashes it stops tracking estrogen and just looks for LH. Is this your first month tracking? It could just be a longer cycle for you this month or you could have missed it. It's awful not knowing.

@loverainbow02 oh God how confusing. I have heard of people getting a positive OPK just before AF or when they've actually been pregnant but it seems to be too early for either of them. Was your positive last week darker than this one?

@alisxo I wouldn't test 8 days it'll be far too early to show anything. I'd wait till 10 😊

@talcott2007 I know what you mean it's so difficult having to force it. I was going to attempt SMEP but decided against it. I'd never survive xx
