Would share the spotting but that’s definitely tmi!

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 07:48

@Kaybobx sorry to hear about your negative this morning. I think your temps will still be high for a few days, if you get a FRER I would only use it towards the end of the week when you closer to 17dpo which is when your AF has actually been due in recent cycles. Really hope the temps stay high and above the coverline just a few more days hahahaha. Come on temps.

snapple21 · 17/08/2020 07:55

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 08:08

@snapple21 awww no is it AF cramping? Don't blame you its so heartbreaking seeing the negatives and then thinking you might actually see a line that doesn't exist lol

snapple21 · 17/08/2020 08:14

Yes feels like it.

Kaybobx · 17/08/2020 08:19

@candycrush2298 i just had a look at my glow app. My cycles really all over the place!! So days from end of AF to next start of AF
April - 27 days
May - 30days
June - 24 days

My TWW is like 4 weeks. No wonder I'm stressed lol. This can't be normal 🤷🏼‍♀️

Elakiya · 17/08/2020 08:19

@candycrush2298 I had a dream you were pregnant 🤰😄. I am just telling you now incase this is your month and I should change my career to psychic. 😂😅

Kaybobx · 17/08/2020 08:20

@Elakiya thats a much better dream than i had. I dreamt that my neighbours dog bit my cats tail off 🙈 random!

Elakiya · 17/08/2020 08:22

@Kaybobx they are quite short cycles? So you’re ovulating early but then have a long Luetal phase? Maybe clomid helps with that sort of thing? 🤔 but I would wait for a medical professional to give that to me if I were you.

Elakiya · 17/08/2020 08:23

@Kaybobx hahaha totally random! I am guessing your cat and the neighbours dog don’t get along?

Elakiya · 17/08/2020 08:25

@snapple21 the way I am looking at it is once it arrives and has gone I can try again? Obviously not the news I wanted but what can we do just need to keep going.

Kaybobx · 17/08/2020 08:27

@Elakiya my GP seems to think its a normal cycle.

Haha my cats are indoor cats so never actually met the dog across the road. I have some weird dreams!

snapple21 · 17/08/2020 08:27

Yes @Elakiya I feel the same. Just want this cycle over with.

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 08:50

@snapple21 nooooo!! Thats not what I was hoping for!!! Since it wasn't me I was really hoping, you @Elakiya or @Kaybobx** were gonna get BFPs this cycle!! Doesnt appear to be working out that way!!! No April babies for us😵

@Kaybobx its normal to fluctuate on your ovulation day. The important thing is how long was your luteal phase in each of those cycles? Were they all similar?

@Elakiya oh wow I love your dream this will be the best news ever and I will certainly take it over my dream - I dreamt I was trying to pass a bunch of life tests in order to be with my ex - not really in my life plans I assure you hahahaha. Your dream is way better. @Kaybobx** not sure I like your dream either whahaah.

Same @snapple21 I feel ya!

I’m so bloody frustrated today. Clearly I’m going daft cause every symptom seems to be there. But bfn.

NamechangeTTC · 17/08/2020 08:51

Especially since I’m due on with @Welliedays so that shows it would show now!

Kaybobx · 17/08/2020 09:02

@candycrush2298 my luteal phase has been
From Jan to May 13 days
June 17 days
July 15 days

Why would the last 2 months have got longer? 🤔 the only thing I've taken over the last 2 months is the maca root.

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 09:12

@NamechangeTTC not everyone implants on the same day so although @Welliedays has her BFP she clearly has already implanted a few days ago. Where as you may have not yet.
Still hoping there is time for your BFP yet. Holding thumbs xx

@Kaybobx its funny because in June mine was also an extra two days (total 14days) and then July went back down to 12 days. I was really chuffed that mine had increased but was just a one off. I think the maca is good for increasing the luteal phase which I wanted but yeah only worked one time. I am jealous yours is long lol!!! Means your body has enough time to get the egg snug as a bug lol. I would always believe the doctor lol and it makes sense because your cycles are still fluctuating within the norm and your luteal phase is still within the norm. I guess you will need to see this cycle if its a 15 day or 17 day luteal phase. 17 may have just been the outlier and 15 is your new norm.

OP posts:
Welliedays · 17/08/2020 09:12

It wouldn't necessarily show yet @namechangettc, I'm still not counting you out!!

Kaybobx · 17/08/2020 09:19

@candycrush2298 oh ok i thought it was a bad thing! So having a long luteal phase is good, how am i only just learning what is going on with my body haha!!
You girls are have taught me more than sexual health at school i know that much 🤣

@NamechangeTTC agreed with the others. Implantation happens at different times, don't write it off yet.

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 09:29

@Kaybobx definitely!!! Short luteal phase is why poor @Boc86 keeps having chemicals 😭 but fortunately she has a plan of action to get that sorted out with her doctor.

So yes a long luteal phase is an excellent thing. Mine isn't bad at 12 days but I wanted longer hahaha.

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 17/08/2020 09:49

@candycrush2298 ohhh so thats why chemicals happen as there's not enough time for the process!

So i have an excellent luteal phase but still can't conceive haha i think im just broken beyond repair

candycrush2298 · 17/08/2020 09:54

@Kaybobx its not the only reason sometimes the pregnancy just isn't viable and your body naturally lets it go could be chromosomal issues etc. But yes its one of the reasons.

Its so annoying isn't it. We tick all the boxes to be able to conceive and here we are without a baby in our bellies.
