Testing mid January - anyone else like to join?

[danielasummer]

So I'm a very keen bean, as it would seem, as I am (unfortunately) on CD1! Glorious AF arrived today..yay..

So looking at my app I am due to take a HPT mid January. Would anyone like to join me?

Stats:
27, DH 28
TTC #1 following a MMC in October
Track BBT and CM
Will use SMEP this cycle

@Gupster hey Emma, what symptoms? Even for example can happen days before ovulation, I sometimes get it 5 days before. It's hard to know. Temperature tracking is the best and then opks. Keep using the opks, tests at least twice a day xx

@Gupster I meant EWCM can happen typooooo

@MrsH0692 thank you lovely! God what a rollercoaster this all is

@AfterGlow87 I have eaten every sweet treat in the whole house 🤣🤣🤣

@Elly88 @Ellabella234 any news lovelies x

Any news @ellabella234 ???

@myttcjourney thanks, I had bad aching cramps in my pelvis and felt nauseous, then the following morning I was back to normal. It's a mind field this baby making 😂 x

No AF here yet. Was here by this time last month. My cycles have varied a little sometimes shorter, so if AF not here by weekend I will test. Please keep everything crossed!! Xx

Evening lovelies. My hcg blood result came back as 1. So if I was pregnant, I am not anymore. On a positive my partner was very happy at me proposing we have sex every 3 days (or 2?) throughout the whole cycle month to try again🤣 and on another note as a Q for you amazing supportive ladies - do I count that bleeding I had as my period (whether it was weird period or little bleed after a very early loss) and carry on my month from there? This would mean I'm now on CD9 !! Or does it mean my month is all messed up?xx

Ah so sorry to hear that @Ellabella234 Do you use OPKs? May be no harm to start testing just to see where you stand?

AF arrived for me today - here’s on to next month! Thank god for biscuits

@AfterGlow87 I did use OPKs for a lot of last month but didn't get anywhere with them. I can't decide whether to just BD every 2 days through the whole month and keep my fingers crossed or use the OPKS to see if I can spot it. I guess you're right there's no harm and seen as I'm on CD9 now there's likelihood I'd definitely catch it I would hope! I just didn't want to stress myself out with it too much but yes you're right, no harm 😊 I'll order more now and do that this month . One step are fine to use right? X

@AfterGlow87 oh AF, just why?! I'm
With you in that - onto the next month and...biscuits!! X

@Ellabella234 I like the clear blue myself, I know their a bit more expensive but I just like the solid smiley face and hate having to chart progression but use whatever you’re comfortable with! Wishing you all the best for next month

@Ellabella234 sorry to hear that :( but yes on to the next cycle! I'd agree on the clear blue digital (20 pack) so you can test twice a day and really understand where in your cycle you are. They are bloody expensive though

Every time I buy I think, ah well it may only be for this one month... a year later!!

Good luck to all. I'll be testing again in the morning x

Hi I’m new to this forum but let me tell you I always thought I was a CD14 kinda gal but here I am static smile on CD 12 so it is for sure possible to ovulate all around the calendar. I think that’s why basal temps r so useful, if u have them

@Ellabella234 sorry to hear that. Did you work out where you are in your cycle yet?
@myttcjourney sorry for delay. @dizzy85 so sorry to hear that. I got bfn at 12dpo so I'm positive af will come tomoro when I'm due on. Got my amazon basket at the ready with OPKs and pre seed 😂 might to enjoy a glass of wine over the weekend and gear myself up for every other day BDing and daily poas 🙄🙈 praying for third time lucky 🤞🏻

So I've had 2 faint lines on opk and today no second line at all, I must of ovulates already, might stop testing until after af and then start a fresh to track my cycle, on CD15 so got a while before af arrives. Keeping everything crossed for some BFP in the forum this month 🧚 spreading the dust xx

Still not any the wiser! No af when due on today but she could just be a little late this morning. Got this with fmu, I can see a faint line (more so in real life) but surely it should be darker by now if it were positive? I've ran out of frers, only have CB digi left and if line if that faint doubt it'll come up yet anyway? Thoughts?

@Elly88 those lines look dark to me! I hope this means BFP for u!!

Well that solves that one! Can't believe I'm the one posting my bfp. Please let this be inspiration to you all who get bfns at even 12dpo, this is 14dpo 🙏🏻

Congratulations @Elly88 !! Wonderful news for you x

Thank you @luckywright 😊 least I wasn't going mad when I was symptom spotting haha. Hopefully it gives hope to others 🙏🏻

@Elly88 ahh this is so lovely to see!! Huge congratulations!

Bfn for me still and starting to spot (af due Sunday). I'm in the worst mood ever as I know it's a no go for me now and to make it worse we have friends here for the evening and staying over... got to put on a brave face but right now I just want to go to bed!!

@Elly88 congratulations 🎉🎉 so happy for you.
I'm having weird day today, CD16, feeling really sick, no appetite, really bad headache and feel like I might have a temperature, not sure if I'm coming down with something or if it symptoms of hormones, anyone got any advice please?

@gupster thank you :) I had all those symptoms in the 2ww too. Hope it means something for you!
