TTC AUGUST (Fertile window mid august!)

[FlorenceO]

Hello just a thread for people to hop onto and chat - let's hope we all get out bfp at the end of August or beginning of September 😬
Sending good luck to all xxx

@Kg87 thank you for the tip, I'm on cd10 so I should start testing more often xx

@somanystars I have my AF due on next monday that's 24th. I am planning to hold off until then if I can 🙈
@Kg87 same here all my symptoms which says PMS I ignore them intentionally 🙈🤣

@Kg87
Haha I did the exact same thing last cycle because my skin completely broke out (like it hasn't for years!). Part of the problem of being on the pill for so long is I have no idea what is normal for me so my symptom spotting is top level 😂🙈 Hope it's a good sign for you!

@somanystars I keep finding mixed info, some have a surge before AF and some before their BFP so I’m going to stop looking and test again tomorrow 🙈😂

@stepmumSW5 Yeah it’s worth testing twice at day at CD10 with the cheap OPKs if you can!

@Shinea me too 😂 if I read a thread that suggests PMS I close it and look at a new one 😂🙈

@igloo92 omg it’s the same for me too! I feel like at 29 I’m just starting to get to know my body 🙈 I’ve been off the pill for about 9 months now but I don’t remember getting spots like these for years!

@stepmumSW5 I'm going to start testing CD9 which is tomorrow. I'm using clear blue advanced digital. But we have already started DTD one day on & one day off.
Hoping for a BFP before the year ends. that will be the only good thing that would've happened this year

Its so tempting to start testing but i think I will wait till My period is due (27th)

Good luck to those who are testing early.

@Pinkiii I am going to hold out as well AF is due 29th think we still have a few fertile days then the dreaded 2ww

Hello everyone! I’m new here, first time mama-to-be (hopefully!) and this is my first month TTC. Still figuring out all the lingo and what to do; just had my fertile window so fingers crossed! It has been a bit of a slog getting here with health and medication issues, but I’m very excited even to be trying. I’m trying very hard not to be a checker / symptom spotter but don’t think I’ll be very good at that somehow

@Monday55 we've already been doing every other day and I'm cd10 but my lh seems to be still very low

@stepmumSW5 I started doing 2-3 times a day on cd13 when I got my first high (but not peak) result. Did once a day until then. I use the femometer app and its great for keeping track of your opks 😊

Testing that is 😂😂

@igloo92 I'm trying femometer this cycle 😊

@stepmumSW5 I didn't peak until CD15 so there's still time, don't stress xxx

I don’t know if i’m having implantation symptoms or imagining it. I think 6 DPO is a bit early 🥴

@Pinkiii 6 DPO is roughly when implementation occurs isn't it? Xx

@beckyBP I'm actually chill for now. My cycle might still be a bit off since last month i missed a proud so let's see what happens.. Xx

@beckyBP i believe it is, but been feeling it for a couple of days which is would be madness

So since I last posted on here, I believe I've had symptoms that could be positive signs! I've been bloated for about five days, going to the loo a lot and today I got a couple waves of nausea. However I did cave and tested early and got a BFN 😔 AF should be here on Friday but at the minute that feels like ages away!

Hi all can I join please?

2nd month trying for #2, daughter is soon to be 3. Just winged it last month but my cycle is so irregular between 21-43 days so decided to use OPK this month. Only finished my period a couple of days ago but got a high fertility and smiley face on a clearblue test this morning which was sooner than expected so we will see what this cycle brings!

Good luck to all

@EmmaAM those signs do seem promising, fingers crossed for you! How many DPO are you? I know we’re similar aren’t we? I’m 8DPO and caved again today and of course got a BFN so feeling a bit down, keep trying to remind myself that 8DPO is probably too early to tell and it’s not over until AF arrives but like you say it seems like ages away!

@bez91 welcome and good luck!!

I've been feeling different since yesterday. Today is 8 dpo. Yesterday had quite strong cramps, today have a bizarre taste in my mouth. Also having really strange dreams. I'm hopeful but could also be leading up to AF. Due on next Monday/Tuesday hoping to hold out until then!

@Kg87 I'm currently 12 DPO with AF supposed to be on Friday. I've just felt very odd this month compared to the previous two but still scared I'm just making it all up in my head 😔 I will be so excited for us of we can both get that BFP! I ended up hysterically laugh/crying today which was really bizarre 🙈🙈

@EmmaAM yeah I’m wondering if I’m completely making these symptoms up, maybe I’m just noticing them this cycle as I haven’t properly had to do the TWW until now. Haha I think wild emotions could be a positive sign, I cried in the toilet earlier coz my boss asked me to stay a bit later at work today 😂🙈 Really hoping you get your BFP this week! Have you had any other symptoms?

@abitfunny hiya! I’m 8DPO as well, I thought AF was due this weekend but now my app says Monday too! Hoping it doesn’t arrive at all for all of us 🤞🏼

@Kg87 hi! :) how are you feeling? I definitely think 8dpo is too early to test. I'm pretty certain I tested on the day my period was due with my son. Don't know if I will be able to hold out that long this time...
