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!

[timswifey]

Thank you @Nic555 glad nothing is TMI around here 😅

[itssoooofluffy]

Also going to join if that's ok!

TTC #1
Cycle 4 after implant removed
CD 16
31 day cycle, so AF due 30/11
Age 28

DH works away during the week so DTD regularly is a bit of a challenge. He has recently started WFH on a Friday so hopefully we have a better chance of being successful now!

Good luck everyone!

Blazing positive tonight on ic and have the worst right side pelvic pain ever!! Guess I'm ovulating from the right side this month. Anyone else experience ovulation pains?

[whatsthecraic91]

@hannahs87 sorry about your MC how long have you been TTC?

[AliSxo]

This wait for ovulation is dragging!! Before this stage has always flown by but now it's a countdown to ovulation let alone the dreaded TWW!! Sending everyone baby dust, I'm testing on 29/11 when I'll be 10dpo which I know is early but I'm a POAS addict!! Xx

[hannahs87]

@whatsthecraic91 we have a 15month old little boy already. Both times I've fallen pregnant we've been very lucky and it's taken on first go so I know it wasn't meant to be and how lucky we are we do get pregnant so quickly. Fingers crossed though because I never want to go through this again.

@whatsthecraic91 @itssoooofluffy @AliSxo sounds like we'll hopefully be testing buddies :) If this cycle is the same as my first one post-pill, 26 days, then AF is due on 30 Nov so planning to test then.

Never done a test before as AF came earlier than expected for my first one, so fingers crossed that doesn't happen again this time! CD11 for me today, still ⭕️ but hoping for the flashy tomorrow. I know what you all mean about burning out, trying to stick with the SMEP but worried DH will have had enough by the time I get to ovulation 😂

[Nic555]

@loverainbow02 I always get a pain on one side after my positive OPK. However I could actually just be imagining it. 😂 x

[LoveRainbow02]

@Nic555 yeah I'm usually the same but tonight it's really sore, it's actually hurting on that side to walk 🤷‍♀️. Couldn't dtd tonight as I'm so uncomfortable 😔

[Nic555]

@loverainbow02 I've never heard of it that bad before. When u have had it it's more of a niggle. Hope it's better today.

Another blank face for me today. I think my estrogen may have already risen before I started testing so I'll go straight to a static face or I've already ovulated. Going to test twice a day the next few days and see what happens x

[LoveRainbow02]

It's never usually been like this for me in the past. I got another positive on an ic this morning again. What cd are you on now? You could maybe be ovulating a little later this cycle

[whatsthecraic91]

3rd day of flashing smiley, really hope I get my static soon as I’ve only 3 CB sticks left 😅

[Sunshinexx95]

Hi everyone, I hope u don't mind me joining u now ..
I have just finished my AF and I am supposed to ovulate on 21st but I will keep testing before that so I won't miss my ovulation
This is my 3rd month of trying .. I don't know why I feel the way I feel but I have no motivation left.. I'm trying to keep being positive. But I am hoping u guys will cheer me up 😞... everyone around me is getting pregnant and I am so happy for them but I can't help myself from feeling disappointed with my body..
sorry for the negativity 🤭

[AliSxo]

Hey @Sunshinexx95 I think we've all felt the exact same way recently! So many pregnancy announcements and I'm sick of seeing bfns!! I'm also due to ovulate on the 21st so we'll be testing around the same time!! I'm using clear blue digital ovulation sticks and also IC's to try and track ovulation xx

[ceebee21]

Hi All - welcome newbies!!

CD14 and have just had my static smiley - had flashing smiley CD10, 11, 12 & 13.. very pleased as last month I had 10 days of flashing smileys - although that was weeks after my surgical management of MMC.

Not sure whether to count tomorrow as 1DPO, or Sunday - what do you guys think?!

Think either way I won't make it until 29/11 before testing

[whatsthecraic91]

@ceebee21 - happy days! I’m on day 3 of flashing smiley which is annoying as I usually have 2 then my static!! I always count the day after my static as ovulation day, so Sunday would be your 1DPO

[AliSxo]

No flashing smiley for me just yet which is fine I'm CD9 and due to ovulate on 21st November. It's dragging, I'm impatient, I'm stocked up on pregnant tests ranging from IC to FRER to digitals!! 😂 xx

[ceebee21]

@AliSxo I know the feeling.... my bathroom cabinet looks like a chemist.

IC, Superdrug, FRER and Clearblue!! Plus all the OPK's.

Literally am just wishing my life away here.... I do love Christmas though, so also nice to get a bit closer to that time of year

xx

[AliSxo]

@ceebee21 I keep mine stashed in my knicker drawer and it's like a mini chemist in there now 😂 I get them of eBay so only paying £3 per FRER so never feel to bad taking one earlier... try to use the IC's but prefer the FRER xxx

[ceebee21]

Yeah FRER defo the best... ooo I haven't looked on Ebay.

I get mine off Amazon, they are two for like £7ish and arrive the next day with prime!!

xx

[AliSxo]

@ceebee21 static circle on the digital for me today, due to ovulate on Tuesday so going to keep testing and weirdly can't wait for the TWW! 😂 well the back half of the TWW anyway xx

[MrsTwentySeven]

CD15 and a blank ⭕️ yet again ....gahh I’m so impatient ....
@ceebee21 @whatsthecraic91 yay you have the smileys! Not long for 2WW 😀

[AliSxo]

@MrsTwentySeven I'm impatient too 😂 I started digital OPKs on Tuesday and only ⭕️ so far... hopefully a smiley tomorrow... ovulation due Tuesday on CD13 - Flo app is usually bang on so we'll see. At least we're all in this together I'm sure we'll be symptom spotting in the TWW xx

[HMR2019]

Hi everyone, new to posting....hope you don’t mind me joining this thread!
Stopped my pill 19th Sept at the end of my packet,has my normal withdrawal bleed for 5 days. I had my first proper period 24th Oct but a bit confusing as was having spotting for about 5 days prior to this so not 100% sure of my cycle length etc!
We’ve been dtd every few days for the last few weeks but not really sure when/if I ovulated. Hoping to test early Dec if no af by then :/
Can’t believe I was under the illusion that it was super easy to get pregnant before reading up on it!!

[LoveRainbow02]

Morning ladies, how are we all?
Welcome to all the newbies too 😊.
So cd17 for me and I think I'm 1dpo. Only managed to dtd on cd 10, 13 and 14 😔. Was hoping to dtd more often but my toddler isnt sleeping great at the moment and me and dh are exhausted by the time bedtime comes. Let the symptom spotting commence 😂
