Ah maybe it's worth you getting some OPKs? I've got an app which tells me when I'm ovulating but some months it's out from what my body's actually doing and if we went off that we would have missed our chance (I've been tracking ovulation since Nov / Dec although actively trying since Jan)

emma4282 · 11/03/2020 22:01

Oops posted too early.. Thank you! Baby dust to you too 🥰 this will be our month! 🤞🏼

Babydancing2020 · 11/03/2020 22:31

Count me in! AF is due on the 21st so will probably cave in around the 18th tbh and test. Tried doing OPKs properly this month but never caught a surge so I'm not their biggest fan 🤣.

TTC for #1 and I'm on cycle 2 btw!

1987Nic · 11/03/2020 23:05

Hi everyone, my af is due 20/3, I’ve bought an early detection test so possibly going to test on 16th.

dublino · 11/03/2020 23:17

Hi ladies mind if I join the club. AF due the 18th so will probably start test from the 15th . Trying desperately not to sympthom spot but the past two days I've not felt great.. was an absolute emotional mess yesterday crying over stuff I shouldn't and today I've had a dull head ache all day which I never suffer from and feeling a bit bloated and nauseous. Boobs are sore but are always sore in the ttw

Babydancing2020 · 11/03/2020 23:29

@dublino sounds like me! My cycles are a bit irregular so not really sure whem af is dua. Cud be the 18th or maybe a day or 3 later. But im not really feeling well these past 2 days...been feeling cold and warm at the same time head aches very crampy and moody. Im always moody and crampy when i get my period but these cramps are more intense thn my period crampsss so will see. Fingers crossed.

@babydancing2020 I also suffer from irregular periods ( pcos) but usually when I do ovulate I have a 13-14 day Luteral phase. I'm ttc about 1.5 years . I'm slightly feeling a bit positive about this cycle and I dont want to feel like that last cycle we had I taught we nailed it and was gutted. Its impossible not to sympthom spot!! Yesterday a friend texted me a slightly snotty message and I came downstairs to dh roaring crying a wagging war. Eventually calmed down and watched some bake off . Dh started talking to me about food prep and I started crying again. For no reason, i just couldn't help it . God i hate the ttw ConfusedConfused

Babydancing2020 · 11/03/2020 23:56

@dublino ooohhh poor thing!!! My oh is self employed and told me yday that hes gonna spend the day wid me at home i started crying as well cuz i was happy the next second my 3y son was a bit naughty and i cried again cuz i felt like i couldnt handle it while im always the chillest in the household.. ah well will see what happens if i dont get my period the 18th im gonna start testing with internet cheapies.
Keep me updated yeah?
And last month i was 6 days late and convinced i was pregnant as well i was guttedd...

dublino · 12/03/2020 10:26

Its hard to explain irrational crying to himself , I think he just thinks I'm crazy! caved this morning and did a test @ 7 dpo . Needless to say it was snowy white !! Ah well. How is everyone feeling this cycle. My dull headache has returned again this morning

Babydancing2020 · 12/03/2020 11:49

@dublino ah well its still early for a positive but i get why u tested tho hahahah. I have no tests in house so i cant test(did this on purpose). My tests will arrive the 14th but im. Gonna try not to test untill 18th

OP posts:
Babydancing2020 · 12/03/2020 11:51

@dublino im still crampy its a lot kinda weird ive never cramped like this before my period last night i was convinced tht i might be pregnant but that thought didnt last long thinking bout all the negatives i had every month

OP posts:
dublino · 12/03/2020 13:56

@Babydancing2020 only reason I did the test was I've a heap of wondfo cheapies that I have ( I buy alot of opks so they come with them) and I want to get rid. Wont be doing a fancy frer until at least monday . What sort of cramps are they. I have a bit of a dull cramp. Like a premenstrual cramp the past hour. Have you been ttc for long ??

Babydancing2020 · 12/03/2020 14:57

@dublino ahh hope to hear from you monday! Ive been trying to conceive for 7 months now if im not pregnant now.
And the cramping is like a pre menstrual cramp but sometimes a bit more intense...i thought yday maybe all this cramping is an ovulation as I used to have long cycles around 36 days so me and oh did the deed yday just in case.
It was intense for 2 days and today im not feeling anything...just maybe mild cramping here and there tht comes and goes.
How long have u been trying to conceive?

Hi ladies can I join too please?

I'm due on 21st march but I bought an early clear blue test so I thought I'd test on Wednesday.

First month TTC so not anticipating being that lucky but fingers crossed. I had some issues with scar tissue being removed from my womb so I'm not sure how easy this TTC merklary will be.

Mrsdingle2019 · 12/03/2020 17:41

Hi, can I join? I'm on cd 22, 7 dpo 1st baby (hubbys 2nd - dss 16 lives with us). Been ttc since August last year in a very laid back fashion, this is the first month of actually paying attention to ovulation and stuff, so very new territory for me. Going to be testing on Monday or Tuesday.

I'm symptom spotting like crazy and totally freaking out in this tww 🤯

Jessmary94 · 12/03/2020 18:19

Hey can I join too ?! Ttc baby 1, this is our. First month after finishing the pill (last pill 23rd Feb) & I think I ovulated at the weekend, but didn't test so can't be sure. Think I'm around 4dpo so hopefully do an early test at the end of next week. Not expecting much as not long off the pill however have dtd almost every day this last week so if I did ovulate as I think I have then there is hopefully a chance I have caught on this month 🤞

emma4282 · 12/03/2020 19:20

Hi all! 😊

I stopped my pill in October and we started trying for our first in January - wanted to give my body a couple of months to get back into a routine and we have a cruise booked for May (big family wedding on the cruise) so we didn't really want to miss that so started actively trying in January 😊 been taking folic acid since October though!

emma4282 · 12/03/2020 19:21

**you can't be more than 24weeks pregnant which is why we held off from trying straight away 😊

dublino · 12/03/2020 20:39

@Babydancing2020 its frustrating the long cycles . I worked out i only have about 5-6cycles a year . I've been trying to concieve for 1.5 years now. I conceives this time last year ( exact same time, due dates would be the same if concieve this cycle) but unfortunately that's ended in mmc . This would be my first. I've had the dull heavy ache on and off all day and the head ache is gone since this morn . My temps are still rising so that's good. I'm hoping my irrational crying two days ago is a good sign. The last time I had that was before my bfp when I got very very emotional over a horse in Cheltenham. Do you temp??

@Mrsdingle2019 welcome!!

Babydancing2020 · 12/03/2020 21:28

@dublino im so sorry to hear that tht must have made u insecure as well. May I ask have u been to a doctor yet. They advice to see a doctor if uve been trying for a year with no success.
Ahhh it wud be so amazing if we had our bfp this month!!!!

Hi everyone, hoping to jump on board here too. I'm 7dpo and until now the wait has been fine, but starting to get a little impatient now. Symptom wise I haven't really experienced much apart from just feeling a bit achy in the abdo, I think this is just a coinsedence though rather than a symptom! Will be testing in about a week if AF hasn't arrived. Good luck to everyone 🤞♥️
