Long Cycle girls TTC #2

[xoJellyBean]

Thread number 2 as we are close to our 1k limit❤️

Lovely to hear from everyone!
I'm cd21 with no hint of fw yet so it'll be return of the long cycle for me! Got too excited after having last cycle at 32 days 😭
Trying not to worry that it just means I'm irregular and might have problems

@Newbie0818 of course! I'll keep you updated and hopefully soon you'll be able to join me and we can start a long cycles bfp thread!

@SarahTTC2020 I hope it happens soon for you x

@Pol96 wouldn't that be lovely!

@SarahTTC2020 it’s horrible just waiting when you have long cycles. No two cycles the same. Hopefully it will happen soon.

@Newbie0818 how you feeling today? I have a really bad headache, started last night and I can’t get rid of it.

@Suki2020 I don't feel anything anymore so I feel like I'm out, so annoying this feeling of "here we go again". I'm just going to wait and see what happens when I test in Wednesday, and drown my sorrows on holiday if its a bfn 😂 sorry about your headache, that's annoying x

@Suki2020.. Try 4head.. I get so many headaches now and it feels really nice.. Cold packs too!

I actually left my opk more than 20 seconds today because I thought I saw a bit of ewcm, and it had two lines! So cd22 and it's looking like I'll get a peak soon.
I propositioned DH for the quickest quickie ever as we didn't have long before going out, but we don't do it tomorrow so didn't want to miss it 🤣

@SarahTTC2020 yay!! Good luck!

Thanks @Pol96 I’ll get one and try it. Not sure if it’s hormonal, the weather or just a combination of them all. Paracetamol just isn’t touching it 😩 @Newbie0818 keeping my fingers crossed for you. @SarahTTC2020 hopefully you’ll get your peak in the next few days.

Hi everyone, I think I'm 4dpo. Feeling like I've completely missed this months chance. Only dtd twice during fertile week, DH was away for work and when he came back he was tired (he has been working v hard). Trying not to hold it against him!!

Fingers crossed for anyone testing soon!

Don't lose hope yet @duckii as I'm sure @Pol96 said she only did it once during fw, it only takes one little swimmer :)

I had a bit of a fiasco with temping this morning, forgot to do it when I normally do, spent ages just laying awake tossing and turning in bed, went to the loo etc. Then decided why not try, and my temp has dipped, probably would have been below cover line had I taken it properly 😨 if af comes this early then that's just cruel 😑

@SarahTTC2020 wohoo super exciting! Hope that peak comes soon.

@Suki2020 I get migraines and they seem to have gotten worse this year - try Kool n Soothe, they stick to your forehead and are super cold. Those, a dark room and sleep are the only things that work for me. I heard Coq10 can also help so 🤞🏻 as started that this cycle.

@Newbie0818 I stress so much about individual temps, so can't believe I'm saying this, but try not to worry as it could shoot back up tomorrow. I had a really restless night so my temp has dipped quite a bit today. Could also be an implantation dip for you? 🤷🏼‍♀️🤞🏻

@duckii we only got 1 time in during fw! The day before ovulation, and my dates were perfect at my dating scan. Don't loose hope!

@Newbie0818 hopefully it's just because of restless sleep, plus not sure where you're located but it got a lot cooler overnight here!

@Tink2019 I know, I'm awful in the tww! Doing everything I can to distract myself. I already feel out so I guess a bfp would be a nice surprise :)

@Pol96 it may well be, tbh my temps are never very consistent so I don't know why I'm worrying so much. I guess I just really want to give hubby a pos stick on our anniversary next week 😭😭

I think I may be out at 9dpo 😭😨 went to check my cervix and I have pale brown blood up there 😭 I've put on a panty liner to monitor it but I usually get spotting before af 😞

@Newbie0818 or implantation bleeding? Really hoping it's that for you xx

Tbh @Tink2019 I've stopped kidding myself it may be that as it's just so rare 😕 we'll see what happens

I hear ya @Newbie0818 best to be realistic then pleasantly surprised rather than hopeful and disappointed x

@Newbie0818 hope af stays away for you. How long is your luteal phase normally?

@Tink2019 yeah I think that's my way of coping, we'll see x

@Suki2020 around 12 days, although last cycle was 17!

@Newbie0818 well if it does turn out to be AF on the way at least you’ve had a shorter cycle this time and hopefully the next one will be as short. It could also be implantation bleeding so your definitely now out yet x

@Suki2020 that's definitely one way of looking at it! Thank you :)
It's a weird consistency, like ewcm with streaks of brown in it. God I hate being a woman sometimes!
How are you feeling?

@Newbie0818 try and keep positive, but I know it’s so hard. You’ll know within a few days. I still feel a bit off headache keeps easing off then comes back. Not sure if it’s where it’s been hot and I have to wear a visor for work. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But other than that all I have is sore boobs which I always have after ovulation.

Hey ladies, how are we all doing?! 🥰 ewcm for me today so dtd tonight and the next few days, still not back to temping, testing and tracking lol but maybe will do it next cycle. CD17 today☺️

@xoJellyBean aww good luck. Is it your first cycle not temping and testing for a while?
