Well, cross hairs this morning. FF reckons I’m 3dpo today, I reckon I’m 4 but given my luteal phase is pretty much 11/12 days I guess I’ll find out!

Timing this cycle was much better, so I at least feel like we’re in with a chance this month but I do not have my hopes up. I definitely think if there’s nothing this month, I should make an appointment with the doctor to get things rolling as it’s been a year now.

Best of luck @Lauralozzle!! 🍀

Hi guys I’m getting extremely faint lines on a few tests now but barely even visible, not sure if this is just evap lines or not!
I’m 6 days over AF due.

That's exciting, @KatieFH! Keep testing?

@Purley Is it your first month too? It's ours - we're trying to conceive DC#2 (our first child is nearly 4).

Purley · 01/07/2020 10:12

@KatieFH I can see some lines for sure, test again tomorrow?

@helia Yes it's our first month trying, I have a DD with a previous partner but she's almost 12 now, this feels all brand new to me!

KatieFH · 01/07/2020 10:21

@helia I’ll keep testing but thought I was out this month! Crazy if it starts showing up so far after AF due. Wonder what that means.

@purley thanks I’ll test again tomorrow and see, I have lots of cheapie tests that detect early but also have FFER which is showing even fainter line!
Awh 12 years since you last did this! Very exciting!!!

Suki2020 · 01/07/2020 11:13

@katieFH I would try again in a couple of days and if it’s still only very faint I would ring the doctors and ask them to test you.

KatieFH · 01/07/2020 11:17

Here it is in colour (it’s stronger in person I must admit)
@suki2020 yep good plan, will do

@katieFH can see a very faint line, so definitely test again in a couple of days. Fingers crossed for you.

Lauralozzle · 01/07/2020 12:38

@KatieFH I’d test again in a few days. I can see a very faint line but I can’t see any colour to it, so hopefully it’ll be stronger in a few days time

Hi all, can I join! I've been scrolling and staring at everyone's pee sticks. I think I have a slight obsession!

I'm on cycle 2 - TTC our third. First two were not even planned so this is alllllll new to me. Since coming off contraception I'm not ovulating. Supposed to be heading into my fertile week according to Ovia but not getting any positive news from One Step.

I've just started taking Agnus Castus and Inositol today which hopefully will kick start my fertility.

After this weekend I'll be in the TWW.

Baby dust to everyone!

HollowayL30 · 01/07/2020 15:54

Hello all! Can I please join! This will be trying for our fourth! The first 3 weren’t planned so we have decided now to just try for one more then I’m done. I had my coil out last week and have been bleeding since on and off. My app states I’m due to ovulate next week, hoping end of July I get a positive. Looking forward to seeing how quickly or long it takes this time. X

Rma13 · 01/07/2020 17:02

So update on me, just had a call from the Drs who's said the scan I had is showing cysts on my ovaries, which is probably why I've not had AF and ive also got two large gall stones which is probably what is causing the pain! So I now need an operation 🤦‍♀️ so looks like I'm having to put ttc on hold and my heart is broken!

helia · 01/07/2020 17:59

I'm so sorry to hear that, @Rma13. When can they fit you in for the operation?

notyetamumbuttrying · 01/07/2020 18:01

Aww @Rma13 so sorry to hear but at least you have answers and treatment now. Once it's done you can get bk ttc and hopefully be successful!! How long until they can fit in the op, or too soon for that question still?

2020mission · 01/07/2020 19:29

@Rma13 sorry to hear that but try to keep positive as it's a good thing they have found out and you will be back to TTC soon I'm sure!

peonyrose87 · 01/07/2020 19:38

@Rma13 oh I'm sorry to hear that, but hopefully after your surgery everything will start working again and you can start ttc again 🤞🏻❤️

Rma13 · 01/07/2020 21:21

Thank you everyone 💕 they are trying to get me in for surgery ASAP but due to covid19 it may take longer than normal!

Lauralozzle · 02/07/2020 12:16

@Rma13 I’m sorry to hear that you have to put TRC on hold but at least you now have answers and a plan moving forward.

@HollowayL30 and @zippityzip welcome 😊

helia · 02/07/2020 21:08

How's everyone doing this week? I'm glad it's nearly Friday! Is anyone testing this weekend? Only CD15 here - think I'm now in the TWW. I haven't been tracking ovulation as such but CM (sorry TMI) no longer seems to be EWCM so I'm guessing that's that for this month. We're still sticking to the sex every 2 to 3 days plan just in case.

2020mission · 02/07/2020 21:43

@helia I'm CD15 too, and 4 DPO so not testing until next weekend. Probably will end up using a cheapie next Friday. Feels so far away! when are you thinking of testing?

helia · 02/07/2020 21:48

Not until around 15 July @2020mission! I've only got one pregnancy test and need to make it last. Grin I'm not expecting to have conceived this month (although perhaps there is such a thing as beginner's luck?) so trying to be as relaxed as possible about everything. I was positively obsessed when we were trying for DC#1 and swore blind I'd conceived the first month only to be very disappointed. We were so lucky to conceive the second month but I'd totally convinced myself by then it was unlikely! Let me know how you get on?

notyetamumbuttrying · 02/07/2020 21:52

@helia I was going to test tomorrow but can feel AF coming so will just wake up to that in the morning 😫
Hopefully you'll be quick again with no2, how amazing would that be!! This is my first and we've been trying 10 months now, bloody draining!

helia · 03/07/2020 07:58

Ahhh @notyetamumbuttrying, hope you are OK. You're not out until you're out!

Purley · 03/07/2020 08:39

Thinking of you @Rma13 It must be distressing but once you have the op you can start trying again and hopefully you'll have much more success.

@notyetamumbuttrying With my first I was convinced AF was coming, even went out and bought tampons! It never happened and I got a BFP a few days later. You never know!

I have a feeling things haven't worked for us this month, can't say why, just a niggle :( Oh well, will have to wait a few more days and see
