Since AF has shown her face, is anyone due to test 1st August? Hopefully that'll be my month 😂
Trying for no2, already a mummy to a baby girl who's 6 months 💗

AF is due for me on 3 August! My cycle has been a bit all over the place and I've wasted so much money testing when I thought AF was late. It's settling back into it's pre-pill/pre-lockdown regularity now though so I'll test on 4th if she doesn't show 🤞🏻

I'll be testing on the 3rd since AF arrived over the weekend. Cycle 4 here off the pill, I did ovulate last cycle so I think my body is back to normal. Also doing another cycle of seed cycling 😊

I just came off the pill back at the very start of June so I might have a few cycles to go through yet but I'm hoping there could be a bit of luck 🤞🏽

@pineapplejuice20 Yep someone on here just got a bfp on cycle 2 off the pill. I think everyone is different, so there is always hope!

I’m due AF on August 2nd - feels like a long wait! Just started cycle 3 of TTC. Had a couple of days of feeling really disappointed when AF got me as I really thought last month was our month - I felt so different in the TWW. But now feeling optimistic about cycle 3! GL to you all.

Anyone trying anything different this month? I’m going to get some evening primrose oil today as I don’t think I’m producing enough fertile CM. I only get a little of the wet stuff and never EWCM. I drank grapefruit juice last month but it didn’t help so was relying on preseed but clearly that didn’t work

@pineapplejuice20 how long did it take you to conceive DD?

pineapplejuice20 · 08/07/2020 10:45

@LuckyFlash it took me 2 months with her, so 2 cycles. So I'm hoping this cycle might be the one but I'm not getting to down about it as each month means she gets a bit older, so things might be that little bit easier when baby comes along 😂 but it is really gutting when AF shows up, that feeling never goes. I never took anything or tried any old wives tales with DD, literally just me and my partner DTD when and as we felt like (obviously making sure we try near my fertile days too) so I feel like the less you stress about it the easier things can be! GL to you 💗

@LuckyFlash I have the same issue so thinking EPO as well. I did try grapefruit juice, but drank the 'from concentrated' one which is the wrong one 🙈. I have bought some DHA pills to take alongside my vitamins&minerals as well. Using OPKs and doing bbt (basically loved tracking last cycle as I found out I Ovulated way later than any app predicted). Getting married in June 2021, so this is our last cycle of TTC until next year. I had originally not planned for another month, but can't help it 🙈

I'm due AF 1st August. This is cycle 4 for us, ttc baby no 1. Hoping this is our month 🤞🏻🤞🏻

HansBanans · 27/07/2020 20:07

How is everyone getting on? TMI but I think I'm about 8DPO and woke up with a tonne of watery CM this morning whereas I think I'm normally quite dry by now. Hoping it's a good sign 🤞🏻

eastcoastgirl · 30/07/2020 10:01

Don't know if I dare believe it, but I got my BFP this morning! I'm in complete shock, cant believe it's true! Theres not much room for interpretation with the CB monitors though!

Anybody testing August 1st?
HansBanans · 30/07/2020 10:15

@eastcoastgirl oh wow congratulations! x

eastcoastgirl · 30/07/2020 10:36

Thank you so much! I don't feel pregnant. Wonder how long before it sinks in!

pineapplejuice20 · 04/08/2020 19:01

Totally forgot about this thread I started so I'm sorry girls! But just to update, I got my faint BFP. 🤞🏽 hope it gets darker

That's fantastic @pineapplejuice20! My AF was due yesterday but no sign. I've got a sneaking suspicion that I may have ovulated late so I'm going to try and hold off for a week to avoid any disappointment.

pineapplejuice20 · 04/08/2020 19:47

@HansBanans all my fingers and toes crossed for you! I think the same happened to me. My AF was due anytime now, however I've just been to the loo and had a tiny bit of pink spotting. So I'm slightly worried but gonna just try stay calm as possible as I had bleeding with my LG too throughout my pregnancy 🤞🏽💗

@pineapplejuice20 thank you! I hope it all works out for you 🤞🏻 x

@HansBanans thank you 💗

@pineapplejuice20 congratulations! I was tempted to test with an IC this morning but I managed to stop myself 😂

pineapplejuice20 · 05/08/2020 10:32

@HansBanans if you're due anytime now you might get a positive! I think I was due either today or tomorrow xx

OP posts:
HansBanans · 05/08/2020 10:42

@pineapplejuice20 I'm sure I was due on Monday (33 day cycle) but a few cycles ago I had a 47 day cycle that was just full of BFNs and it was so frustrating. So part of me is desperate to test while the other part of my just can't cope with the disappointment. I'll try on Friday if AF still doesn't show and failing that I think I'll need to make an appointment with my doctor 🤞🏻

HansBanans · 06/08/2020 11:13

Still no sign of AF and BFN on an IC this morning ☹️

pineapplejuice20 · 06/08/2020 15:33

@HansBanans oh bless you. But you're not out til AF arrives! I think I'm only early on talking like 2/3 weeks preg so I definitely OV later than I thought

OP posts:
HansBanans · 06/08/2020 17:16

@pineapplejuice20 I know it's just so frustrating. I don't feel any different but then I'm not sure how many DPO I am so it's probably just too soon x
