Anyone looking for a friend

[Sammiantha2020]

Hi Ladies, any of you out there around cd 8 looking for someone to chat with during the rollercoaster ride that is ttc? A lot of my friends already have kids and I’m feeling a bit left behind. xo

@Alice8688 Opk’s can fluctuate so much...this doesn’t mean you won’t still ovulate or that you haven’t already & perhaps missed this if it was a short surge (mines is positive for about 12hrs max usually). Make sure regular bd to cover yourself x

Thank you @Sammiantha2020 it's just so hard waiting! Especially after being pregnant so recently (and after relatively few months trying). And my cycle was so textbook then: as were the opks. I struggle with "outta the norm" at the best of times!
Luckily we do bd a fair amount (lucky DH!) even when we weren't trying. So this is my only saving grace!
How are you getting on? Xx

Don’t worry @Alice8688 mines have been all over the place & I ov’d a wk earlier this month to last month 🤷‍♀️ try not let it get to you!
I’m sure you will be well covered if it’s happened without you catching the surge... try to relax (easier said than do I know!).
I’m 9 dpo ...no symptoms, however as ov caught me completely unaware this month I’m pretty sure it’s into the next cycle for me... x

I think I've give up on the test and we been Dtd every 2 to 3 days

@Wintergal aslong as you keep dtd you’ll be covered! It can be a difficult time, but please stay positive x

We going away for the night so there will be lots of bding hopefully lol! How is everyone else getting on

I’m just trying to enjoy dtd outside of the window...it can be so stressful during the fertile window x

CD16 here and nowhere near a pos OPK 😢 I just don't think I will this month. I've been testing since AF finished so haven't missed it. But no positive so far. Just faint second lines. Not getting discernibly darker or lighter. I am either in for a monster month of 30+ days or a regular 28-29 and no ov. Either way: pretty down about it!

Sorry to rant. Hope y'all are having better days! Xx

Hi @Alice8688 it is verrry possible to have a long cycle every now n then - I’m having a particularly short one this cycle at 26 days...I was always 30/31. Don’t lose hope! x

@Alice8688 I am also having long cycles so I hear ya here any time you want to rant

Thank you ladies 😘 feeling so defeated about it all! I don't know why I'm feeling particularly sad lately about it!

@Wintergal how long are your cycles darl?

@Sammiantha2020 thank you doll. I'm hoping that af will either be on time so I can start again or the cycle is long but I ov. A long cycle with no pos opks/ov will be upsetting xxx

Last month it was 45 days. Flow app has me ovulating this week but last week I have two lines o e faint but they have now both vanished and I now have extremely sore boobs so no idea what's going on with my cycles which is very annoying!

@Wintergal oh that sucks. You defo have my sympathies. Let me know how you get on this week. Fingers crossed for us both. It's so stressful isn't it 😢 xx

@Alice8688 I’m with you...the entire process is a nightmare - far too much waiting! You never know, perhaps you just missed ov as it happened during the night or something...& you’ll surprise us all with a bfp x

Yeah who thought it would have been this stressful am in pain just sat here grr

Hi ladies how are you all! Has anyone ever had these symptoms when ovulating. Sore boobs they feel squashed in my bra, headache and I feel really sick.

I felt that way when pregnant before my mmc...are you sure you haven’t ovulated? x

I am not sure I was testing everyday for a week then I give up and went back to end of pasty week. I feel so wiped out today and couldn't even enjoy my coffee to pick me up

How many days are you into your cycle? x

Am on day 22

I’ve got my fx it’s a good sign for you! I’m on cd 24, due af on Thurs...desperate for it to hurry up as I know I’ve no chance this cycle due to timing 😢 x

Thanks @Sammiantha2020 it's prob nothing. You never know fx for you also!

@sammiantha2020 hi sorry that I didn't reply to your last post! Slightly changed my name from Jenna30 to Jenna30ttc. So since my last post I kept testing but never got a positive opk. Im due on the 28th but have no idea when i ovulated so not sure what DPO I am. Which is frustrating. How are you doing? Where are you in your cycle? Sorry if I've missed this.

@Sammiantha2020 just read your post! CD24. Sorry that you feel that way but you never know. However I know it's easy to say and tbh i completely understand I feel the same. I prefer feeling negative about that having hope and being disappointed when you see the BFN.

@Jenna30ttc I’m absolutely fine, just desperate to get onto my next cycle as this one was a complete waste of time, hopefully I’ll know where I am next one. What kind of opks do you use? I’m cd 24 & due af on Thurs going by my lp (as this was a short cycle at 26 days for me, usually 31). I think my body is still settling down after everything.
What cd you on? How’s it all going? x
