Never started a bus before.
I’m out for March as just got af and have long cycles.

Will be hoping for a bfp mid April.

Anyone want to hop aboard?

I’m ttc#2 cycle#4

@Hatepickinganame well congratulations 😌 wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy and beyond x

myhappystreak · 05/04/2020 17:19

Thank you @MoonW @Juno231 @Florence13

Sadly BFN for me. No sign of AF either. I feel so nauseous today, just frustrating, I'd like to know either way. DF thinks I just need to chill.

Should I take another test tomorrow with FMU?

Juno231 · 05/04/2020 17:29

@myhappystreak I would maybe test again in a day or two as I'd be worried the home bargains tests aren't sensitive enough to pick up on it just yet?

88claire · 05/04/2020 17:40

OPKs confuse me! I had what I thought was my positive yesterday but today I'm still getting near to positive (if not positive) results but one is much Darker than the other. Same brand but different batches.

Just want to make sure I did ovulate as it was super early for me (cd12 when my cycles are usually 30-32 days!

Hi all, can I join please? Ovulation due Thurs (9th April) & 1st cycle trying :)

Nic2908 · 05/04/2020 19:01

Hi guys please can I jump on too?? Had very strange periods last couple of months, not really sure of my average cycle currently, however had positive opk on 29th and 30th so currently running with that.... how is everyone??

Juno231 · 05/04/2020 19:42

@88claire these are high results but not peak - did you get a darker line than this yday? If yes then getting a high rather than peak today would confirm that you've ovulated and that it's tapering off now.

Juno231 · 05/04/2020 19:44

@88claire mine for comparison - with a peak yesterday

Juno231 · 05/04/2020 19:56

Would help if attached it...

88claire · 05/04/2020 20:22

@Juno231 here is my chart... I'm still not convinced about the peak - it wasn't 'blazing' like I've had before. It's just so early in my cycle!

Juno231 · 05/04/2020 20:32

@88claire that looks pretty text book to me? Maybe you're just having an odd cycle this time round. I missed my peak last month cause I randomly ovulated 3 or 4 days late 🤷‍♀️. I feel like the more I delve into this stuff the less sense it makes lol.

88claire · 05/04/2020 20:36

@Juno231 thankyou! That's put my mind at rest. Everything crossed for the next couple of weeks. And I have zero willpower and have a cupboard of expired hcg tests from my daughter - will give it a week at least! Grin

Nic2908 · 05/04/2020 20:38

Can I have some help folks. According to my ovaview opk I had positive 29th and 30th. Throughout all of this time my CB digital (first time using) only ever got to flashing. I have just dipped my opk out of interest and ovaview is negative but CB still flashing smily. Why would it still be flashing?? Attached my positive opk so you can see.

@Juno231is that an app? Looks like a really easy way to keep track!

Juno231 · 05/04/2020 21:25

@88claire haha that's brilliant! I probably have half a dozen cheapies left that I will inevitably crumble and test on probs as early as 9 DPO!

@Nic2908 I think lh levels go up and down a bit throughout the cycle? Not to to worry about I don't think.

littletandme · 05/04/2020 21:36

@Nic2908 I've never used a CB monitor but I think if it's your first month using it then it may not have got a baseline level for you therefore it doesn't know what is low and what is peak, so it is just flashing "high" all the time. Did you use it from the very start of your cycle?

popcorndiva · 05/04/2020 22:36

I think CB flashes once it gets a high reading until it goes static. Think that's what the instruction says. So if you miss the peak it will continue to flash even though your LH is low

myhappystreak · 05/04/2020 23:15

You guys I think I've just realised why I'm late and feel sick. I vaguely remember something about pregnacare messing up peoples cycles. So I did a bit of research and it all points to that. I just want AF to come now so we can try again.

@Florence13 did you say you took pregnacare too?

Franklydear · 06/04/2020 00:59

I need a rant
After 2 lots of antibiotics and 1 of steroids, I have pulling cramps and nausea, it must be around ovulation time, I feel like poas, but at cd 11, possibly not even ovulated yet it is worst than pointless, I am also very tired and cannot sleep.

Florence13 · 06/04/2020 02:19

@myhappystreak no I haven't had any pregnacare Hun but I do not really have any symptoms or anything and know I should probably poas again. Want to try to wait until Thursday when I will be a week late for AF.

@Franklydear sorry to hear you are feeling frustrated by everything but fingers crossed you get a BFP this cycle.

Adrianoska · 06/04/2020 02:31

Hello to a the new contributors 👋🌸 how are you?

@myhappystreak I did take pregnacare when I started TTC and it did prolong my cycle by 7 days and I felt totally pregnant! Obviously a massive disappointment... 😒 Second month was similar so I stopped it. Moved on to proceive max and that was OK... Now I take pregnacare again, we will see if it messes me up again..

I am now 9dpo..... Not going to test, I don't feel pregnant and I know only too well of the BFN.

We also just had sex and obviously that worried me that now I destroyed all the chances of a happy implantation. Damn it again!

🌸🌸🌸

Nic2908 · 06/04/2020 06:35

I took pregnacare conception and it royally messed up my cycle. I was has having super long cycles and then periods that lasted 2 days. Before that it had been great. My pee was also neon yellow so I stopped taking them. Waiting for things to resume to normality or bfp then will recommence something. @myhappystreak

Juno231 · 06/04/2020 07:12

@Adrianoska it's the orgasm part that would potentially mess with implantation so if your OH can't keep his hands off of you at least try to not enjoy it 😂😂😂

OrangeJ · 06/04/2020 07:13

@Adrianoska I’m starting to feel a bit down now too at 10dpo and not feeling any kind of pregnant. I keep hoping I’ll wake up with a symptom but nothing 😔

I just have that feeling of disappointment like when you buy a lottery ticket, convince yourself you’re going to win, plan what you’ll do with the money then inevitably don’t win 😣

Hoping some of you other ladies in the TWW are having some symptoms?🤞

Hatepickinganame · 06/04/2020 07:30

@OrangeJ dont feel down about the no symptoms, i literally had none so bfps can happen even without any hint! 🤞🤞 for you 😊
