@Libbyvmama @LT103 @MrsF18

I made us a new thread to continue with the crazy TTC weirdness discussion.

AND @Sdoo4 Congrats again on your BFP!

How are you all doing?

Anyone else welcome to join ofc!

@Mrschips07 I'm so sorry :( baby dust to all! New cycle, new chance xx

Hey @Emmie12345 all good thanks! How are you?

I'm CD 19 and pretty sure I ovulated on CD 16.. attempted SMEP and did every other day but haven't DTD since CD 16 (ovulation day) for various reasons (night 1: I fell asleep, 2: he was in a foul mood, 3: too bloody hot) so who knows this cycle 🤷🏼‍♀️

@beckyBP did I tell you I am trying to have a happy accident so whilst dp knows I don’t have contraception he doesn’t think am actively trying .. he was quite shocked at 3 full on nights in a row then break and another hahah ))

When did you get your positive opk? I think I ovulated on cd12 or 13

Am
Already thinking no way am I doing smep again, will have to really just leave it to the gods from now on !

Sorry to hear that @Mrschips07

I’m on CD 48 with a bit of cramping this morning. Think I’ll be out soon too but wish I could just get my period so I could start a new cycle !

How is everyone getting on? After ovulating bang on day 14 last 3 cycles, I’m cd14 and no high on opk yet so still waiting here. Feel a bit better about not doing so well dtd this fw as it would have been wrong timing anyway. Managed today and will try for tomorrow but then oh is away for work for 2 days so really depends when I finally ovulate

@LT103 ah that's a blessing in disguise then isn't it!

I'm well into my TWW. Feeling sicky today but getting AF style cramps already. AF due in a week.

ONE LONG WEEK DOWN, ONE TO GO 😅

@beckyBP I don’t know what’s worse, the 2ww or what’s turning into a super long wait between af finishing and finally ovulating!!!
Ttc really is just a waiting game!

Are you planning to test early or just wait and see?

@LT103 I know what you mean! It's so hard!

I'm going to TRY and wait until AF due date.. however.. we'll just see how that goes 😅

Last month (first month TTC) I didn't have any tests so bought some when AF was 2 day's late. She arrived like an hour after I tested! That means there's tests in the house now though so I'm not sure if I'll be able to wait

@beckyBP I’ve been put off early testing after a false positive so I still test but Id take any faint lines with a pinch of salt unless they were Consistently there and getting darker

Hi all

@beckyBP cramps too now and did cheap test and nothing grrrrr!!!

How are you all doing ?x

Hey @Emmie12345 all good thank you how are you?

Struggling through the TWW 🙄 this will make you laugh ladies.. I just googled if achy arms are a sign of early pregnancy 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️ my arms are so achy and I don't know why!!

8 DPO, 5 days until expected ovulation

Hope someone can respond to me so I don't feel like I'm going crazy. Had an early loss at 6 weeks in May, didn't have a period for 6 weeks, my cycle after that was bang on 28 days. Flo said my most fertile day was August 3rd, the day after I had just one spot of blood after going for a wee which I found odd. I've had sore boobs/nipples, abit of nausea, I'm quite cranky & pinching/pulling in my tummy with some cramps on the right side. I had a lot of these symptoms before my last period which is new for me, I never get sore boobs before a period. I'm due on today & I'm usually a wake up and it's there kind of person, never ever come on through the day. I took a test today & it's negative but it's driving me mad 😩

@beckyBP hahahaha re achy arms ! Am really fed up symptom spotting and just think am too old tbh !

@hudsona hmmmm could be pregnancy signs but also could be period ! Test again tomorrow ? Xx

@Emmie12345 I think I will with FMU if it's not here when I wake up, it's just tedious 😩

Isn’t it just @hudsona ( update us and good luck xx

Thankyou lovely @Emmie12345 xx

@beckyBP I think I’ve googled everything at some point haha

I’m having a crazy cycle. I normally ovulate day 14 but day 17 and no sign of a positive opk yet. Oh away with work until tomorrow and stressing over exams so think this month will be a struggle. I make a point of not saying anything about timing to him as I don’t want sex to become about just ttc and don’t want to put any extra pressure on him. Really hoping my peak holds off til the weekend. More chance then 🤣🤣

Hi Ladies, hope it's ok to join. I'm 6dpo, feeling absolutely nothing. First ever month TTC after coming off the pill. Been on contraception (pill, injection, implant, pill) for the last 11 years so started using OPKs straight away and shocked to have ovulated 18 days after stopping the pill. I've been reading through posts about symptoms this early on and you crazy POAS addicts and feel truly overwhelmed! I'm already questioning when I should feel something although I know not for at least a few days and I've become a pro on the ins and outs of conception (thanks to Dr Google). Determind to not poas until at least 12dpo (we'll see how that goes). I had a smear today so have a bit of spotting and cramping (I have an ectropion) but nothing unexpected. How do you guys get through the TWW without going mad!?

Welcome @RoxyMcRoxFace the answer is I think everyone goes mad in the TWW! 😂

I'm 9dpo and I had the most vivid dream last night about getting a BFP i woke up like did that happen?

@beckyBP I used to get those dreams when I was younger and wake up in a panic. How times change hahaha

How is everyone getting on??

Cycle day 21 here and I’ve never been so happy to see a pink line!! Ovulated over a week later than usual but at least I’m ovulating!!!

This is our first month trying to conceive. My period was supposed to start today (23rd August) but on Wednesday 19th I had some dark brown spotting when I wiped. Early hours of Thursday I had what I think may have been my period, wasn’t very heavy but wasn’t light either, looked like it was mixed and a bit watery too. Friday I stopped bleeding around 11, changed my pad then and nothing else. Could I have just had a really short period or could this have been A heavier implantation bleeding? Think I’m clutching at straws and hoping for something that’s not there.
