Hi all ,

I want some company .... currently in my 10 month of TTC after a miscarriage last March at 14 weeks

Due to ovulate around the 10th so my TWW will start around the 11th

Anyone else in the same boat ? Let's keep each other company

Ps I need support not to test early as drove myself mad last month !

Xxx

@Ivoryjane sorry I completely missed your question! I only rarely spot any CM, even my using my fingers so I've stopped trying to track it tbh. I did prompt me to try using pre-seed this cycle though, let's see if it works!

Skyla01 · 08/04/2020 19:17

@Ivoryjane that sounds like a good plan! I know what you mean about WFH, although we found it useful during FW- more time & energy!

Just another note about ewcm- I usually get some about cd14, then again at cd18 which is when I usually ovulate. But if you have a wide fertile window and dtd a lot it'll be ok anyway.

Ivoryjane · 08/04/2020 21:19

No worries thanks @Juno23 I'll try pay closer attention to it this time round and see if I can notice anything. Can I ask what pre seed is? I prob could just google it but I'm trying not to let myself go down that rabbit hole this month!
@Skyla01 thanks that's good to know. I'm just not sure at the minute if I can trust my app so I'll try see if I can spot the EWCM for O time! We're happy just DDT every other day for now anyway and see where we go. I sound all very relaxed but I'm really not!! ha ha!!

Juno231 · 08/04/2020 22:09

@Ivoryjane of course! It's kinda a fertility friendly lubricant (you shouldn't be using regular stuff when TTC) that mimics CM. CM is meant to help the sperm along on its journey so I started to get paranoid about the little men not being able to get to their destination through what clearly must be the Sahara desert 😉. Truth be told I'm just happy to try anything and you see lots of ladies swearing by it so why not 🤷‍♀️

Skyla01 · 09/04/2020 08:16

@Juno231 that bit about the Sahara desert made me laugh!

We've been using conceive plus for ages. It's the same as preseed basically. I don't insert it though, we use as a normal lube. It obviously hasn't helped us conceive, but it works fine as a fertility friendly lube.

How is everyone else? @Adrianoska you must be due AF soon? Hope she stays away!

Adrianoska · 09/04/2020 08:54

@Skyla01... Good morning 💕 I am 12 dpo and just had a BFN. 😣😥 AF due tomorrow. Feeling crushed again 😔 How do you do? Xxx

@Ivoryjane, I have been using Conceive Plus for 2 months. Not that I am dry... My husband has to cross an ocean now. But it clearly didn't help yet. 😒

I am going to start recording my BBT. Any good apps? I am using Ovia but it doesn't let me put my BBT in celsius!
X

Juno231 · 09/04/2020 09:22

@Adrianoska I'm sorry to hear but I'm still hopeful it's not over for you yet this cycle! I'd recommend femometer cause I'm like born again Christian with that damn app! Def does Celsius though and is brilliant for OPKs too.

Skyla01 · 09/04/2020 10:56

@Adrianoska I am due AF tomorrow too. I just want time to speed up and know whether she's going to come or not! I'm still feeling optimistic after 13 months of this Grin . I think 12dpo can still be early for a test so you're not out yet. It doesn't help that I have nothing to distract me!

Donnat89 · 09/04/2020 11:31

2 DPO today .... and I'm desperately trying to think about anything other than AF ..... I've still got a long wait too ! Hope everyone is ok x

OP posts:
Ivoryjane · 09/04/2020 13:19

@Juno231 thank you for that. I might try that next month if i don't get my BFP this month! Sahara desert! Haha! @Skyla01 thanks for the other option name too & I hope AF doesn't show up tomo and you get a BFP.

@Adrianoska so sorry about your BFN but it is still early and haven't you mentioned before that with your other pregnancies you got BFP much later than 12DPO so don't give up yet! Wishing the best for you!

It's an anxious wait @Donnat89 being at home not really making things any easier either. Good luck with it all xx

Adrianoska · 09/04/2020 21:34

Thanks girls ❤️
I feel cramps now.
And my husband and I had a disagreement, I am upset a little.
😔

Sometimes my heart breaks 💔

Skyla01 · 10/04/2020 11:26

So sorry @Adrianoska. TTC can be really tough, especially at this stage of the cycle. If AF does get you then chin up- a new cycle and a new chance for success!

I'm still waiting for AF to show. Haven't got any cramps yet but trying not to get my hopes up. The waiting the past couple of days has been torture! I think next month I won't use my app at all, just dtd regularly and some extra when I see ewcm. I figure if I don't know exactly when AF is due I won't go so crazy next month!

Donnat89 · 10/04/2020 15:51

Afternoon ladies , hope everyone is well ?

I'm
Currently making the most of the weather in my garden , I'm a bit red ooops!

Just catching up not the chat , like
Many others we are not actively trying and if it happens great if not we are not too bothered either everything that's going on I'm 3 DPO today and my ICS came today but not testing don't feel the need too and still far too early by next week however this will be a different story !

Hope everyone is Keeping well , I've been a bit quiet as trying to distract myself as much as possible and trying to keep busy doing bits around the house ! I am however popping on and having a read ! X

Skyla01 · 10/04/2020 17:23

@Donnat89 I'm looking forward to some sun tomorrow too! We're really lucky to have gardens. I like the sound if your relaxed approach- I'll be trying that next month. I've got a teeny bit of spotting do reckon AF will arrive full force tomorrow. Oh well, onwards and upwards! Definitely need to be more relaxed next tww!

Hope everyone is able to make the most of Easter! We'll be making a nice roast dinner for 2 on Sunday.

Juno231 · 11/04/2020 11:30

I'm 6DPO now and already itching to test (don't worry - I won't!).

@Adrianoska did your AF arrive?

Donnat89 · 12/04/2020 09:49

Morning ladies ! Hope everyone is well !

@Juno231 I'm a day behind you so 5DPO today and still feeling relaxed , but AF symptoms usually start for me around 7DPO , so will see !

OP posts:
Ivoryjane · 12/04/2020 11:08

Morning ladies, hope you are all well and have a nice Easter Sunday. (albeit a very different one). This whole stay at home isolation is difficult. So I am just beginning my TWW. Feeling ok about it not getting too worked up over it and hoping that will continue. Haven't even thought about when I will test if I need to.
Good luck to all you lovely ladies on the TWW a bit further on than me! Smile
Enjoy the weekend.

Adrianoska · 12/04/2020 12:11

Happy Easter girls 🐣

Yeah. @Juno231 my AF arrived yesterday. Bastard.

I got myself a ticket on the May Bus on here and hoping for the best. This will be our 5th cycle and I swear I am scared.

I am going to try and do the bbt. And I bought more of that expensive Proceive Max.

I am so desperate... Really desperate.

How are you all?

🐰🐰🐰🐰🐰🌸😘

Skyla01 · 12/04/2020 13:21

Happy Easter!! Loving the sunshine x

@Adrianoska my AF arrived yesterday too so know how you are feeling. Really thought April could have been our month. Bit sad yesterday but after enjoying the sunshine yesterday and today I feel better and ready to take on a new cycle!

@Donnat89 and @Juno231 you are getting to the exciting part, good luck!

@Ivoryjane really hope you can stay relaxed, I went a bit mad at the end of my tww. In a way glad AF is here so I'm back to some sanity again. I personally wouldn't test unless my AF was late. Might save you some money on tests...!

Donnat89 · 12/04/2020 13:51

@Skyla01 yes it is but it's also the most stressful part . I'm trying to stay calm but can feel myself becoming inpatient 😕

It will be a long week x

Hope everyone is keeping well we are having a nice relaxed Sunday here xx

8DPO and I've had an unexpected dip in RHR so I'm secretly hoping it's an implantation dip! Let the symptom spotting commence 😂

Donnat89 · 13/04/2020 14:50

@Juno231 fingers crossed ! I'm 6DPO today and haven't got any thing to spot yet
Although AF symptoms usually start around 7DPO

OP posts:
Juno231 · 13/04/2020 23:37

Well I'm in bed with stomach cramps. Implantation? Indigestion? No one knows! Other thing I've noted (other than a drop in rhr) is that my cervix is so high up I can't even reach it.

In reality this is when I'll get AF show up early at 9 DPO somehow, isn't it 😂

MrsChicken89 · 14/04/2020 06:49

Cd24 for me, 11dpo. I havent tested yet, mostly because my OH is home & i usually do it secretly, mostly so i dont have to tell him its negative, is that bad?

Ive been using pre seed for the last 3 cycles and it hasnt made any difference for us.

One thing ive done differently this cycle is take maca root, i usually spot from 2-3dpo till my period & its stopped that, which is great, its given me a renewed sence of hope after so long.

My temps dropped slightly today, so if AF doesnt show or i my temps dont drop massively i might test tomorrow.

Juno231 · 14/04/2020 07:10

@mrschicken89 I always do it secretly as well! Otherwise he'd think I'm insane 😂
