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!

@AliSxo Ahh I know. I'm so tired of these circles now...CD16 and yet another circle :( I thought I'm ovulating 18th so would have thought the advanced digital would have been flashing today?!

Nic555 · 16/11/2019 08:59

@loverainbow02 three days is great with a toddler. Hopefully a sperm was there waiting for you egg to be released 🤞

I still have a blank circle on my ovulation test. I think I may have ovulated day 10 which is really early for me and only managed to DTD that day and maybe the day after if egg lasted. I'm going to keep doing my tests for a few more days just incase I haven't.

@AliSxo @MrsTwentySeven I feel your pain with the blank circle. I'm just so confused this month x

Nic555 · 16/11/2019 09:06

@HMR2019 its all so confusing isn't it. My app counts my cycle length from the day of full flow. It'll take a bit of time for your cycle to calm down and regulate. You'll know better after that.

@sunshinexx95 I know how you feel. I never expected it to be this stressful I thought I'd be a lot more chilled out. We are all here in the same boat if u ever need a rant xx

LoveRainbow02 · 16/11/2019 09:12

@Nic555 That's good you managed to dtd on the days you thought you ovulated. It can be si hard to pinpoint even when using opks. I got pregnant in September and had only dtd once that month as I wasnr trying and on the pill. Low and behold I got pregnant but ended in mc. Would just be my luck I come off the pill and itll end up harder to get pregnant lol.

Nic555 · 16/11/2019 11:09

@loverainbow02 sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Hopefully it won't take you long at all now you're actively trying although who knows I think it's just the luck of the draw with the percentage. I'm hoping if I ovulated already because I was chilled not thinking about it I may be lucky. Af will be due just before my birthday and my husband birthday if I have though so will be even more annoying if it shows up x

LoveRainbow02 · 16/11/2019 11:11

Fingers crossed and lots of baby dust your way that af doesn't show and you get your bfp 😊. I'm due around the 28th I think

Waiting1987 · 16/11/2019 13:23

Hello. Hope you don't mind me jumping in. Not supposed to be ttc until January but recently got implant out and obsessing already. Does this OPK look positive? Hate these ones but don't want to start Clearblue until after first period. And when I'm actually meant to be ttc

@Nic555 Thanks, hoping my cycles sort themselves out soon! I always had long cycles before starting the pill (8 or so years ago!) so guessing they will be long again :/ Which app do you use? Thinking of using one from next month but not sure which one as there are so many!

MrsTwentySeven · 16/11/2019 13:55

@Waiting1987 I think so...but I never know properly with these ICs

LoveRainbow02 · 16/11/2019 19:03

@Waiting1987 I'd say that opk is postive too!

@HMR2019 I use the ovia and flo apps. I think they are both good for keeping track of symptoms etc

Waiting1987 · 16/11/2019 19:34

Thank for responses! It's now definitely negative so who knows whats happening... Will dtd anyway and hope for the best! Just started ttc again so peeing on sticks is still a novelty.

Sunshinexx95 · 16/11/2019 19:43

Hi again :)
I need some advice... so basically yesterday I had fever it felt like I was getting the flu. I didn't eat or drink all day. And yesterday was my 7th and last day of AF. I stopped bleeding on the 5th but I usually have 7 days period. Anyways I peed on the ovulation stick and it felt like it

Sunshinexx95 · 16/11/2019 19:49

Hi again everyone :)
So I just want to share something with u and get ur advice on this. It is really confusing me.
So basically yesterday I felt like I was getting the flu and I got high fever and didn't eat or drink all day. Was just in bed. And yesterday was my 7th day period but i stopped bleeding on the 5th day. But usually my AF is 7 days.

Anyways so I decided to do a ovulation test. And it was so weird. The control line was still darker then the ovulation line but ovulation line was dark :/ could it be that my urin was too concentrated? Because it looked very dark :/ and i didn't have much to drink. Today the ovulation line was very very light I could barely see it. But my urin colour was light too.

Did I miss my ovulation ? 😭😭 help meee

Xxx

AliSxo · 16/11/2019 19:56

Hey hun I did an ovulation test just after I finished AF and it was a good strong line I think the Lh must increase once AF is on her way out. You won't have missed ovulation xxx

Sunshinexx95 · 16/11/2019 20:22

@AliSxo hiii
Really? So it wasn't just me 😭 I was worried I missed ovulation ... I hope Christmas will bring something good with it 😭 I'm hoping for BFP .. I hope we all get BFP this time around ❤️❤️

AliSxo · 16/11/2019 20:41

Yes I got one like 4:5 days after my period, no way had we ovulated that early!! Mine then went rally faint and they're picking back up again slowly ready for ovulation hopefully on Tuesday!! O it'll be so magical this Christmas putting the decorations up knowing I'm pregnant so fingers crossed for us all!! So far I've DTD on cd6,8,9,10,11 with plenty more to go!! 🤞🏼 xxx

Lf89 · 16/11/2019 20:56

Hey, can I join?

TTC #1
Cycles 2
Age 30

I had a CP at 5+5 on 3/11, well started bleeding then but my HCG was down to 17 by then so think lost a bit before.

Started testing on clearblue opk and after one day of low I've now had 6 days of flashing smiles Confused so no idea if I'm going to ovulate. Feeling exhausted and sick today, I got symptoms immediately last time as I'm very sensitive to hormones but doubt I even ovulated and feeling quite stressed about it all so will try to calm down and just see if AF comes early Dec.

AliSxo · 16/11/2019 21:17

Hey @Lf89 keep up with the digital OPKS you might get your static smiley, maybe do some IC's and compare them over the next few days? I had an early miscarriage also 5+6 last month, hoping for my BFP this month!! Xx

Sunshinexx95 · 16/11/2019 21:40

@AliSxo

Really?
When did you get ur af and when did you finish. I'm due to ovulate on Thursday according to my app but I will keep testing.

Wouldn't Christmas be magical if we knew we are pregnant 😭 ... I wish us all the best 🙏

AliSxo · 16/11/2019 22:51

Hey @Sunshinexx95 don't judge me on the picture but I've kept my IC's for this month just so I can compare 😂 CD4 was last Sunday and look how dark the line is compared to this weeks and only now they're just getting slightly darker xx

AliSxo · 16/11/2019 22:52

@Sunshinexx95 I've also had some ovulation cramps so I'm sure I'm due my static smiley any day... a flashing smiley would be a better start as I've had ⭕️ since Tuesday!! Xx

Sunshinexx95 · 16/11/2019 23:21

@AliSxo
Lol don't worry I do the exact same thing ;) I track my ovulation the same way you do hehe and exactly how u taped the strips.. it makes it a bit easier to know when I ovulate.

When do u usually ovulate? I usually ovulate around 5-6 days after my last day of AF..
my last day was yesterday... I think we might ovulate around same time?

AliSxo · 16/11/2019 23:28

@Sunflower2019 thank god I'm not the only one! I also feel rather organised with my book, tape and pen 😂 due to ovulate on Tuesday when I'm CD13 which is average for me... at least we can do the TWW together. I know I'm bonkers but I'm planning on testing at 10dpo which'll be Friday 29/11 xx

Sunshinexx95 · 16/11/2019 23:36

@AliSxo
😂 my husband helps me organize my book.. I get tired of testing sometimes but he keeps me motivated :(

I always test way too early I start testing at 7dpo :( but I promised myself not to test till 10 or 11dpo
I hope I can keep that promise hehe I am very impatient

AliSxo · 16/11/2019 23:49

@Sunshinexx95 I'm very impatient I might test early with an IC, thing is if I'm testing early and it's a BFN I'm not too disappointed as I know it's too early anyway. I'd be more upset if I waited for 14DPO and it was BFN as I'd of had to really torture myself to wait that long.... if that makes sense!! I'm hoping I at least get a flashing smiley tomorrow morning xx
