August - might be a pact....might be madness

[Rotagilla]

Hello, just a new thread for August...will add people as and when they finish with the 'July pact'

I think it's important to have a relevant thread once you are looking forward and gearing up for the next cycle...
Or chat turns to tww's when we will want to start chatting about ovulation again...

Will run both threads alongside each other ❤️

@Sansa87 I'm sorry but I don't think you will ovulate until the hCG is out of your system. Are you being seen again at some point to check your levels are dropping?

@kirinm as far as I know they are only doing a dildo cam scan on Monday. My last appointment they said there was no point doing blood tests as all it could tell us was if it was falling or not as technically, whilst only 16% rise, it was still a rise.

Desperate to be able to get on with our next cycle though.

Sadly, all this is doing is giving me false hope.

But in slightly better news, I have a cup of tea, a huge bar of galaxy, cheesy Cheetos, & oh is choosing something to watch on Netflix!

Also can’t help but look forward to some bd’ing... the first time anyway, the next few times in the fertile window were not much fun last time 😂

Hey guys can I join please? Looking for something to be part of and not feel alone in this journey. It’s going to be my 2nd cycle trying to conceive. Going to try this SMEP stuff and today is CD 8 so advised hubby of the schedule 😂 I’m trying to track my ovulation this month too so fingers crossed! Good luck to everyone else in their journeys too xx

Sorry to hear what you’re going through @Sansa87 💕 Hopefully you get some closure soon and you can look to the next cycle. Will admit ‘dildo cam‘ did make me laugh though 😂

Still positives this morning, top one is watered down fmu.
For the oh to take a test to make sure they’re not duds... pleased to confirm he got a bfn 😂

I have read that you don’t ovulate If you have hcg, just wanted to drink gin and dtd tonight 😅

That looks a darker positive than the previous ones you posted? @Sansa87

@krj2608 it is. Yesterday’s was in the afternoon, whereas this was fmu.

Hi, can I join?

Due to ovulate sometime around the 21st July, AF due between 3rd-6th August. DTD often atm to cover all bases! Second cycle for us, first baby.

Sorry to read what you've been going through @Sansa87, hope you get some clear tests either way soon X

@sansa87 they seem like really strong positives still. Not too long until your scan now, keep us updated ❤️

Thanks @whambam89 kinda glad I’m not ov atm

Stuck in bed with horrendous headache, & wet flannel over my head. Least sexy look ever. Oh would have his work cut out for him when it cans to ffs bd 😂

You don’t seem to be catching a break do you ☹️💕

Is anyone else coming up to ovulation? We’ve been DTD every other day for a week and I just got a high opk. Going off past experience I think I’ll get a peak either later today or tomorrow so will start every day for the next couple of days until temps go up

CD08 and I'm in my fertile week so cycle 7 is officially about to start.

How's everyone doing?

@kirinm I've all the signs my ov is imminent too! And this is our 7th cycle as well. Been dtd every other day but OH is excited that this week is the week we ramp up to daily - I'm tired just thinking about it!

Fingers crossed for us all.

Hello ladies
About to start cycle 3, I’m still wiping brown and some watery blood so will count cd1 when my flow starts properly, hopefully by tomorrow
Should ov around August 5th and AF due around August 15th because of my stupid short 10 day LP :(

I’m starting baby aspirin, vit c and vit b6 this month and already take Severn seas trying for a baby and started seed cycling last month too

I keep having chemicals and losing them possibly because of my short LP :(

@LuckyFlash I'm due to ovulate today (though I think I actually ovulated yesterday judging by the cramps I had). I'm only tracking BBT so can't be sure until my temp increases. I think I'm out this month anyway as we've only managed to DTD once in my fertile week this cycle! Luckily we're happy for this to take time 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Boc86 sorry to hear you're having issues with your short LPs. Excuse my ignorance but what is a chemical pregnancy? I don't test unless AF is late so I guess I wouldn't be picking them up if AF arrives on time anyway?

Good luck to all this month x

It’s a very early miscarriage
The egg fertilises and implants but the pregnancy doesn’t carry on and you come in your period.
You either come on the day you would or a few days after
Last month my period was 3-4 days late so I was testing positive for days, I was wiping brown in those days
This month I’ve been wiping brown since the day my period was due (yesterday)
I get full on pregnancy symptoms and know im pregnant before I even take a test and I also feel implantation pains very strongly x

@Sansa87 Fingers crossed tomorrow goes well for you!

@Boc86 Sorry to see your name pop up. Fingers crossed this is THE month for you and so sorry about your losses. I've bought some Calc Fluor for this month - probably just a placebo but hey ho 😉

@BuckleUp It only takes one time! Fingers crossed it was your lucky one. 😊 P.S I booked in my gym session!

@kirinm Excited for you! Because AF was late I'm behind this month and CD4 😴

@Boc86 I see, I'm sorry to hear you're suffering from them and BBC wish you more luck this cycle.

@LeopardLover That is true, you never know which one will be the lucky one 🤞🏻. I'm pleased you've booked your gym session, have fun!

@leopardlover what's calc fluor? Not heard of that before!

@BuckleUp Thank you. 😊

@whambam89 It's supposed to help with implantation during the TWW but who knows 😅 Also read it's good for stress and anxiety so that's a bonus. X

@leopardlover might get some, don't suppose it can do any harm! Do you just take it during the TWW or the whole cycle?

Thank you @LeopardLover and @BuckleUp
I’m so so gutted :(
Not heard of that one I’ll buy that too lol

@whambam89 Yes! Just between ovulation and AF. Kids can take them too so no harm trying I guess 😅

@Boc86 Aw 😔 This will be our month!!
