Heading into FW...

Just thought I would start a new thread for everyone about to enter into their fertile window for this month so we can chat (then go crazy in TWW together! 🤣)

Love catching up with the bigger threads but everyone is at different stages so will be nice to have a small group of us here.

I am 29, OH is 31 and we are now on cycle 3 of TTC first baby. CD10 today and FW starts tomorrow. Ovulation predicted as Thursday-Saturday depending on which app I go off.

I will be attempting to track CM, using OPKs since yesterday and also BBT wherever I can to get a clearer picture!

@Whilstwewait my drs told me that they'd treat both us at the same time so he'd get sperm analysis done and I'd get bloods done. I'm already down for an ultrasound once appointments start back as I get pains after sex so guessing they wanna check for a cyst. Yes, let's hope none of us have to go down the ivf route, let's keep each other posted!

@notyetamumbuttrying we are at different surgeries so that may be way ours was different. Good news about an ultra sound. Hopefully it all comes back clear. Well AF still isnt here for me. Think im 11 or 12 DPO and apart from a little blob of brown mucus yesterday afternoon and a little bit of pink on the tissue last night. No spotting. I usually have a lot more spotting by now. So glad my luteal phase is at least behaving.

When are you due to test? Xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 31/05/2020 18:29

Good signs then! @Whilstwewait
On the 11th as due af the 12th 😬
Will you test early?

Whilstwewait · 31/05/2020 18:34

@notyetamumbuttrying I quite like the first bit of the 2WW when there is a chance you may be pregnant. How you feeling?

Ive done an early test. Couldn't see anything 🤣 so probably not pregnant but least positive signs and I suppose still time. Been testing since Friday when my temp dropped as i already felt shit thought a negative wouldn't make me any worse xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 31/05/2020 18:54

Bless ya, it's a rollercoaster right @Whilstwewait I'm ok at mo, it's the second week of tww that I hate as progesterone is not my friend lol! 🤣

Whilstwewait · 31/05/2020 20:11

@notyetamumbuttrying too right it is. Be worth it in the end xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 31/05/2020 20:38

Bloody hope so!! @Whilstwewait 😬

jaxs23 · 01/06/2020 03:38

Thanks @Whilstwewait and @notyetamumbuttrying.
@notyetamumbuttrying hopefully they will check your uterus as well with the ultra sound. The shape and if it's tilted.
@Whilstwewait sorry for the bfn. You're not out yet.

Whilstwewait · 01/06/2020 08:03

Im out AF arrived this morning. Just after I'd tested. Least im out my misery now and didnt really spot this cycle. Ill hang on in here for news of any more positives. Xx

JoesM12 · 01/06/2020 08:29

Sorry to hear AF has arrived for some!
Onward to next month and hopeful for those bfp 🤞
I’m pretty certain af is on her way for me too. Due on Wednesday and I have my usual achey boobs and no other symptoms.
Hopeful next month is the month for us all ❤️

Whilstwewait · 01/06/2020 16:11

@JoesM12 hoping the witch doesnt arrive for u. Im glad mine is here a bit early 2 days closer to ovulation 🤞Xx

JoesM12 · 01/06/2020 17:29

@Whilstwewait fingers crossed aye 🤞
That is a very positive way to look at it! Enjoy the next couple of weeks baby making 💫

Lori23TTC · 05/06/2020 12:05

I’m out...AF arrived this morning...onto the 11th cycle for us!

Hope everyone is well XX

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/06/2020 12:46

Sorry to hear @Lori23TTC! I'll be onto 10th cycle if mine arrives on the 12th!

JoesM12 · 05/06/2020 13:01

Me too @Lori23TTC 😕 on to cycle 9 for us!!
We’ve decided to ditch all the testing and tracking and just try enjoy the process and hope for the best! Fingers crossed this is all our month 💫

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/06/2020 14:12

Nice idea @JoesM12 it'll be far more relaxed that way! I'm gonna do 3 more months of opk's and then it's docs for us. I think once the year of ttc is up and we're getting the tests done at the docs I'll relax more. Until then tho I still need to track so I can prove to them that we have been actively trying for a whole 12 months. Hoping I don't come on next week but I can already feel my af symptoms 😫

Lori23TTC · 05/06/2020 16:37

Sorry to hear you have come on too @JoesM12 that’s a good idea I hope it works this month!

@notyetamumbuttrying af symptoms and pregnancy symptoms are very similar, try not to over think and relax, fingers crossed for you! Xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/06/2020 17:09

Thanks @Lori23TTC I think I'd rather think it was Af rather than have the awful crushing disappointment when I tell myself it might be pregnancy and then it's not. I will always have a small hope tho. 😏 Will keep you all posted nevertheless!

Lori23TTC · 06/06/2020 23:51

@notyetamumbuttrying
Yes that’s the best way to be.. you don’t want to get hopes up too much... keep us updated xxxx

notyetamumbuttrying · 10/06/2020 22:29

Hi @Lori23TTC tested today at 12dpo and get bfn and also came on! Was more shocked at that then the bfn as my LP has shortened by 2 days...was always 14 days so that was weird! How are you getting on?
Hope everyone else is ok? Any testers soon?

Lori23TTC · 13/06/2020 17:34

@notyetamumbuttrying oh I’m sorry AF came in the end. That is weird it’s been shortened but it means you are 2 days closer to ovulation day this month 🤞 I’m waiting for my ovulation day but isn’t until the end of next week so just patiently waiting...

I’ve had all the tests I can have now, hubby needs to get his sperm checked once they are doing testing again (end of month) so not much more we can do but be patient now xxx

notyetamumbuttrying · 13/06/2020 19:31

I take it your results were all normal then? @Lori23TTC
At least end of the month isn't too long to wait and you might fall before then! I'm cd4 now so I'll be in fw on Monday as my cycles are short. Ready for cycle 10 😖

Lori23TTC · 13/06/2020 20:42

@notyetamumbuttrying my bloods all came back normal. I had my ultrasound today and the nurse told me I might have mild PSOS on one of my overies but she also said she could see the egg there ready to be released this month so I’m ovulating and my periods are normal so I suppose I’ll wait for the doctor to call me to explain further. Not sure how that would effect us ttc. Trying not to stress about it as I need to speak to the doctor.

I will be into my Fw around Tuesday too! Xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 13/06/2020 20:51

Sounds pretty positive then @Lori23TTC that's great! Hope the chat with the docs goes well and here's to the next few days of bd'ing!!

Lori23TTC · 13/06/2020 22:13

@notyetamumbuttrying just realised I spelt it wrong... PCOS

Hopefully it’s not to much of a issue! Thanks and you! Xx
