Conception: TTC Baby no1. The crazy lot. Thread 3!!!

Starting a new thread...

@Stabal glad you've got an appointment... annoying you have to wait till Next week though.
Gave you tested with an opk to see if you've anything on there? That would be about week early for you wouldn't it? What CD are you on?

@butterfly5291 probably could have got a closer one with a different doctor but I wanted my own GP haha. I'm CD12 and I usually ovulate between 19-22 so yeah would be a week early which is strange but I'd be happy to lessen the length if it is lol. I'm going to try an OPK now after 12 and see. I guess temps will tell the full story in the next few days!

@stepmumSW5 how are you feeling? 🥰

Sorry just went to add my medication to FF and I'm actually CD13 not 12

Anyone experiencing cold sweats 15dpo?

@Stabal aw that's good you managed to get an appointment with your own GP. I'm also pretty sure I've ovulate early this month too. I'm CD13 today as well (cycle twins for now haha). Got my temp spike this morning. Done my first OPK on CD10 and it was already pretty dark! Thinking I possibly ovulated yesterday or the day before. DTD CD8, 10, 11 and 12 so hopefully covered it. Might have a night off tonight and one more for luck tomorrow 😜
Was the cramp in your left or right side this time @stabal?

@Iloveoreos I've never really had experience with cold sweats. How long are your cycles usually and have you tried a test yet if you are 15 DPO?

@mia1985x ive had long cycles (36 to 39) .last month 2 3 months was shorter cyxles 32 33ish.this month i am pretty sure I had a positive opk test on CD 13. Havent dont preg test yet. Its CD 29 today

@Mia1985x sounds like you got it covered well! I'm a bit panicky if I've covered enough but hey ho we will see! The cramp was fairly central this time and quite sharp and lasted about 15 minutes then gone. This was my OPK from this afternoon.. What do we think, does it look like it could have potentially been positive yesterday?

@Stabal yeah def looks like it's either on its way up or back down. And if your temp went up this morning then does sound like it could have been positive yesterday.

@Mia1985x temp dipped low this morning so if it rises tomorrow I think I'll have a better idea. I'll keep doing OPKs anyway just in case lol. Did you have any ovulation symptoms this month?

I do prefer FF for temp tracking now but its not giving me a base line or ovulation day yet, hopefully will in next couple of days. I've attached my premom chart though. Blue is temp and red is my OPKs. I either got my peak opk a good 48 hours before ovulation or my temp didn't rise until 48 hours after ovulation. I wish there was a way to know for sure.

@stabal. I would still keep checking opk. Mine can look like that even away from peak. Everyone is different but I usually get a high one day, peak the next, then high again the following day so I get a few days of really dark lines.
Do you have Femometer where you can check what level it puts it as?

@Stabal ah I see. It dipped low today so hoping for a rise tomorrow then.
In terms of symptoms I was out and about on Sunday but feel like I did have slight cramping. I've never really felt ovulation I don't think.

@Mia1985x there's still a slight rise before the bigger rise and it doesn't always have to be significant so I'd say that's definitely ovulation for you. I've never really felt ovulation before either. I remember I felt it last year for 2 cycles when I started ovulating again after losing weight but then maybe I just stopped paying attention after that and never noticed again until now!

@LT103 yeah will keep doing them just in case! I use femometer but sometimes their readings are a bit crap aren't they haha it's just saying 17% for that one. Will see what tomorrow's look like!

@Stabal yeah I don’t know how it gets the numbers but I do get most of mine around there and only get into 100s around peak

@Stabal how was your temp this morning?
I'd been holding off opk testing because I don't ovulate till CD17 and only 11 today but thought I best had in case there's something in the air and we all ovulate early!
@LT103 how are you getting on?
@Mia1985x how was your temp this morning? I'd say you were covered for your peak and just after too.

@Iloveoreos I get night sweats leading up to AF and first few days of my period. I had went months without them and they reappeared this month day 2 of my period and I’m still having them 😡 hate them waste down I wake up soaking

:( oh dear...less chances of BFP this month for me then i think.

@Iloveoreos sorry I missed your message yesterday but like@27DONFIN I also get night sweats just before AF

@butterfly5291 temp a little lower today so looks like it wasn't ovulation so at least I know I'm still in with a chance!

@LT103 not bad. We’re heading away today so def going to be doing the relaxed approach. Cd11 and have only done 2 opk so far. I usually ovulate day 14 so perfect timing if it happens. Not temping this month as I’m hoping to have some nice long lines while we’re away haha. Will still do opk so I have an idea of ovulation. Maybe the relaxing break will help 🤞🤞

We’re all around the same stage again I see!!

Never thought having to wait to see if AF arrives or if its a BFP would b so stressful . I havent done any tests yet . I have ordered some just in case. If AF arrives im going to throw away the rubbish one step opk and order femometer ones.

@butterfly5291 my temp was up again a wee bit further this morning so def think you were all right and it was ovulation. Hopefully it stays up now just to confirm.
So that's me away munching some tasty pineapple again. Good idea to do opk just incase you are early. I almost missed it this month as looking now my peak opk was first day I done opks this month. Another day and I would have missed. Wonder what makes our bodies decide I'm going to ovulate earlier than usual this month. Probably just to mess with our heads even more 🤣🤣

@LT103 aw your break away sounds lovely and like you say maybe the relaxing will just be what you need 🤞🏻 after all how many times have we all heard the just relax and it will happen comments 🤪

What's everyone's thoughts in exercising during the TWW? I go to a PT 4 times a week and it's pretty intense stuff and heavy lifting etc. I've been doing in regularly for a few years now so know my body is used to it. Sometimes I Google and freak myself out though that I should be stopping or at least easing off a bit during this time. Would love to hear some of your thoughts on it??

@Mia1985x if it's a regular thing there's usually no need to change anything as like you said your body is used to it so I wouldn't worry! I panicked during the summer because my job had me lifting heavy boxes and up and down 6 flights of stairs etc which I'm not used to so that definitely isn't ideal but you should be fine 😊

@Iloveoreos I got cold sweats and chills before my BFP. I had the weirdest temperature changes. I felt lie a menopausal lady. I had hot flashes. This was around 10 dpo.

@Stabal hello :) the pregnancy seems to be progressing. I'm a bit panicky as this is the 6th week, a bit of a make or break point. So I'm trying to be extra careful. I've become obsessed with checking what I can eat but at least I managed to stop myself from carrying on doing pregnancy tests every day. I have an ultrasound booked for the 30th Sept so I just can't wait. I'm so afraid. I pray every day this bean sticks. My symptoms are so mild, it's a bit scary. I get a bit of fatigue and some mild cravings. Have gone off sweet foods completely. Heartburn and frequent peeing are the prevalent symptoms. I just can't wait to be on the other side of the 12 weeks as this is really nerve-wracking.

Did you manage to get a temp confirmation on your ovulation?
