Who else is just entering their luteal phase? I’m super nervous because I had a chemical last month at 5weeks:( Let’s wait and pray for a bfp together! Rooting for everyone 🙂🤞🏾

I'm in exactly the same situation. 1DPO after a chemical last month (was 4 weeks). Feeling weirdly calm this month so far!!!

Rumples · 26/08/2020 10:29

Hey! I'm 2dpo - late ovulation this month at CD20 though so not sure what that means for my LP Hmm

Also had a CP in June and no luck since. Fingers crossed this is our month! 🤞

Lille4 · 26/08/2020 10:32

@ArcticSky so sorry to hear about your experience. It’s horrible isn’t it? Makes me not want to test early anymore. Do think you had a longer cycle as a result? I don’t use ovulation tests so I’m hoping I read my body right based on an app’s predictions as well. All the best 😆

@Lille4 I'm the same timing as you! 1DPO today based on LH results. I think I had a very early CP last month (#3 TTC): had what I thought was implantation bleeding and a very faint positive, but the 'spotting' went on for about a week before turning into AF. Feel totally wrung out by the experience and trying not to get my hopes up again next month. 🤞 for us both this time round.

chillyfields · 26/08/2020 10:42

@ArcticSky and @Rumples so sorry to hear about both your experiences too. It is emotionally draining, regardless of how early it is. Hoping for success stories for you both this time around x

BringMeThatHorizon · 26/08/2020 10:49

I think I'm 1dpo as well. I've had a really short LP the past few cycles since coming off the pill but hoping that this month is better.

Lille4 · 26/08/2020 10:56

@Rumples and @chillyfields sorry to hear! Mine started as very light spotting for 1 day but I had a really bad feeling about it once I saw the clots 😭 This is our second baby. I’m praying for sticky bean this cycle for us all. We got this. AF due around 8-9 Sept from my calculations. Baby dust to all xx

@Lille4 and @chillyfields it is truly heartbreaking.

Fingers crossed time flies! I never struggle with the time between AF and ovulation as I have a game plan but the 2ww is literally nothing but waiting!

bez91 · 26/08/2020 12:36

@Lille4 hello 👋 I'm also 1DPO (I think) and AF due 9th September. 2nd cycle for baby number 2.

Going to hold out until 6th September to test (as Ovia suggests) I don't want any faint lines 🙈 then the worry and having to retest so I am adamant no early testing this month, anyone with me?

chillyfields · 26/08/2020 13:55

@bez91 I'm with you! AF due 9 September too. Trying to hold out to then if possible, but absolutely not before 12DPO (famous last words I'm sure...)

Lille4 · 26/08/2020 14:34

Yay I’m so happy there’s a few of us. Makes the wait less nerve wracking. I do have a few spare tests lying around but I’ll try not to text until 12dpo at least. Also weirdly, the metallic taste in my mouth and other symptoms from last month’s bfp took ages to clear up.
Stay strong everyone!x

Hi there I’m 2dpo! This is our 4th month of trying. Will be testing first week in September

BuzzyyBee · 26/08/2020 18:23

Hello, I’m 1dpo as well. First month of ttc so trying not to get hopes up too much! AF due ~8th September, going to try and hold off testing until around then (although I’m sure I’ll end up caving and testing earlier!)

LT103 · 26/08/2020 18:52

I’m not sure exactly when af due. I ovulated 8 days later than usual so if my luteal phase is the same then I think af will be due around 5-7th September. I’m not gonna lie, I’ll prob test around the 3rd which is 10 dpo

Candyflosscrochet · 26/08/2020 19:09

Hi ladies, 1dpo for me too based on opks. This is our 2nd cycle ttc after a mmc in June, but I don't think my body was fully reset last month as had intermittent spotting. This time it seems to have been normal so fingers crossed!
Now the dreaded 2ww.... despite being busy with work and 3 kids and a hubby I still find time to obsess and Google everything!! But will try to have a bit more of a relaxed approached....(She's says having got a load of cheapy hcg tests with the opks!!).....what will be will be I guess! X

LT103 · 26/08/2020 19:54

There’s a few of us at same stage then 😊

I’m a bit wary of early Testing. My second month ttc I got a fairly decent line on a cheap hcg stick, not even a squinter. Pink line, came up straight away. Next day bfn, was a false positive. I still test but I don’t think I’ll get too excited about any faint lines unless they’re consistent and getting darker. I did 2 early tests last cycle then just waited to see if af came, not worth getting stressed about!!

bez91 · 01/09/2020 08:44

How's everyone getting on? 7dpo for me now, been really distracted this weekend as been away and busy all week with house renovations so hopefully that'll keep me distracted 🙈

Hard not to symptom spot though, I had cramping from about 4dpo for a couple of days but nothing now. Early but could be a sign of AF as I never cramped when on the pill and I had the same last month and got a BFN.

Hope everyone's well!

chillyfields · 01/09/2020 08:55

@bez91 I'm 7DPO too today! Nice to have company. Also trying really hard not to symptom spot this month as it's been heartbreaking the last three months when I did but saw that BFN anyway... When are you testing? I'm hoping to hold out until at least 10DPO (12DPO if possible to be on the safe side).

bez91 · 01/09/2020 09:03

@chillyfields definitely nice to be in the same boat as someone else. Is this your first? We already have DD (almost 3) cycle 2 this one.

I'm holding out to 14dpo so a week today. I just want to save my sanity, can't brave testing early and being unsure so at least then I'm hoping it'll be a clear yay or nay 🙈

chillyfields · 01/09/2020 09:07

@bez91 yep it's our first. Now in cycle four and I think clinging onto your sanity is a smart move! Fingers crossed this is our month 🤞

Lille4 · 01/09/2020 09:26

I’m 8dpo today and I’ve noticed cramps and a few very teeny sharp pains yesterday in my abdomen.
Honestly I can’t tell the difference between AF and pregnancy anymore. Last time I was convinced AF was on the way and it turned out I was pregnant instead lol. They’re so similar for me. I’ll hold off testing till 12dpo or hopefully until af is late.

Tiktok1 · 01/09/2020 09:41

Can I join in? I’m 1dpo ttc #2. AF due on the 15th. One day in and the wait is already killing me!

I’ve got my fingers crossed that you all get your bfp this month 🤞

bez91 · 01/09/2020 09:44

@chillyfields let's hope so! Let us know how you get on!

@Lille4 I agree, cannot tell the difference at all 😂 With my first took a test the day before I due to go on a girls night out as a precaution and got a BFP (was about 3 weeks) but no signs or anything 🤦🏼‍♀️

Candyflosscrochet · 01/09/2020 09:57

Morning all!
7dpo here. Pinchy lower pains yesterday and ever so slightly pink tinged cm today. Tingly nipples and heavy boobs too.
But I'm only a few cycles after my mmc so this all could be hormones still.....last month I started spotting lightly at 9dpo (although not convinced I actually ovulayed). Xx

LT103 · 01/09/2020 18:09

Anyone planning to test soon?

I think I’ll test tomorrow or Thursday 🙈
