New Year New Cycle

[Elly88]

Let's try again! Due to ovulate on 3rd Jan. Anyone else similar dates and need company ttc?

@HGee12 thanks, realised my tired brain Typed positive when meant negative 🙄

@Maidmummy welcome 👋🏼

So how's everyone getting on this month?

Officially 1dpo today and feeling a little crampy on and off through the day I have no idea why as its a first for me to cramp after O x

@Maidmummy hopefully a positive sign 🤞🏼

How are you getting 9n @HGee12?
@Maidmummy I felt a bit crampy at one point today too but not sure ally sure where I am as calendar says ovulation tomoro but still haven't had my peak on OPK, yet I had ew cm on Tuesday and not since?! So I don't even really know when I ovulated or how many dpo I am :/

@Elly88 it's all so confusing isn't it!! I try to listen to my body rather than the apps, I get ovulation cramps and ewcm every month but it doesn't normally match the apps prediction! The app is only a prediction so I go off my body!
Any more symptoms!

@HGee12 yes I'm with you, I think my body is a little earlier than the OPKs are coming up. Just a feeling and from dates when ds due. How far along are you now?

3dpo I feel fine. I don't think this will be my month. We bd before, during and after.
I think next month I might start opks

Cycle #2 TTC baby #2, still BFing my almost 2 year old so not sure when I'm ovulating or if that's affecting it.
I'm on CD7. OPKs have already started showing LH so we are starting SMEP! According to my app I'm due to ovulate on CD14 but this is my first month using OPKs so not sure how accurate my app is! My cycles have been 26 days but last month had a random 30 day cycle so hopefully OPKs will help!
Fingers crossed for some BFPs soon ladies!

@Elly88 I've given up on the apps now cause they were completely off! Just gone of ovulation pain (has it today, unmistakable sharp one sided pain for a couple of hours)! Now on CD15, going to try and stay calm This TWW!
How are you getting on?

@HerondaleDucks it might still be your month 🤞🏼

@HGee12 handy you know when you've ovulated! Welcome to the 2ww 🙈 I'm 4-6dpo now with lower back ache, cramps and nausea. Tho I have just been referred to hosp for a mole check so hoping that comes through before af so doesn't dampen a bfp. So nausea could just be worry :/

@Elly88 yeah I think that's when I OV anyway! 🙈 they say 20% of women get one sided stabbing pains for a few mins/hours at the time of ovulation and I get it every month so that's what I'm guessing 🤷🏼‍♀️
Thank you I'm hating the TTW already! Wishing the next two weeks away!
Symptoms sound promising, hopefully you'll get results first that everything's fine followed by a BFP 😀

@HGee12 thank you! Fingers crossed both go well. I now have horrendous diarrhea too which I read can be a symptom as your hormones change?! I literally thought I was gonna throw up but could be something I've eaten. Tho havent had anything out of the ordinary for days 🤔 do you know when you're going to test? Keep telling myself it's pointless to start tomoro am as its way too early but these symptoms are driving me crazy!

@Elly88 all sounding promising so far!
I'm going to try and wait for AF to be late (if it's not on time)! I managed to wait last month and tested 2&4days late, it finally arrived late (according to my app) 4 days late. I'd used Tesco's own brand PT's and one had given a faint false positive! Safe to say I won't be using the blue dye tests again this time! Hoping I have the strength to wait again this time 🤞🏼
Maybe try and hold off till the weekend! Have you got any at home? If not order some so they arrive Saturday so you can't do it any earlier! It's so hard waiting though, already wanting to symptom stop and I'm only 1DPO so it's not even possible 🤣

@HGee12 yes I have 2 frers that I ordered last month and 1 CB digi. Trying to sit on my hands now as these symptoms are making me wonder.. Felt I was gonna be sick again when I got home but now it's all vanished and I feel fine! Think the earliest you can implant is 6dpo so it is possible but don't want to get my hopes up. But then been googling a lot about ladies with early symptoms immediately after ovulation and fertilisation that led to bfp as altho you're not yet producing hcg, your progesterone, lh and other hormones rise in preparation?

@Elly88 just see how you go, I'd say wait as long as you can do you don't get any disappointment but I know how hard it is when you have them!
Keep us updated, 🤞🏼

Couldn't resist, am I going insane or do you see the faintest shadow?

@Elly88 I think I see something faint!!!!
Any other pictures?

@HGee12 glad it's not just me! I do feel this could be my month but then someone in another thread said there's a lot of talks tm of frera giving a false faint line quite often? Haven't got any others no, this was between the 3-5 min window, can't see it much now or get it in a picture. Can't decide how long to wait to test again?!

@Elly88 I can see something just very faint! Was their any colour to it?
That's a good sign of it came up with in the time, of I was you I'd try and wait till Friday so there's for it to develop darker, faint lines are so confusing!
Really hoping it's an early BFP 🤞🏼

@HGee12 thank you :) yes well this was late afternoon today so don't think there's any point in testing tomorrow. I'll try and hold off as long as I can but will keep you posted! It's hard to tell as so faint, did look like a shadow but a tad pinky. Can barely see it tho so hard lol.

6 DPO here according to the app (didn't use OPKs) so very early still- cycle 1 ttc. Does anybody else have a short cycle? Mine is about 25 days meaning there was no time really from end from end of AF (7days!) and start of fertile window.

@coralpig mine are 27 days but I ovulate early Period 4 days and then about cd 11 I think I ovulate, tho app and OPKs all differ!
