Sorry to hear it :( I had the shortest af ever, like three days? Heading into my supposed fertile week over the weekend and also bought some cheapie opks, but I think my ds has killed my bladder capacity and I'm not storing long enough.

@Waiting4another, @Char899, (and everyone), how you doing?

Char899 · 29/10/2020 19:52

@Mommabear20 sorry to hear that! Looks like we are all in the same boat... fx this month is the one for us!

@Bellaphant not too bad thank you! Been temping and using opks this month. Temping with a toddler is near enough impossible as I can’t predict when I might have to jump out of bed and run into him so they are a bit all over the place! I’m apparently 1dpo today but I’m not convinced my peak on my opk was a proper peak so I’m still testing and dtd! Another stressful month ttc! Lol

How are you and everyone else doing? Anyone in their tww yet?

Hi all. Had implant out 15/10 and had a bleed straight after. Started to see some faint lines on OPKs today which would be right as my app says I'd be due to ov over the weekend. So pleased things seem to be going back to normal post implant.

Waiting4another · 30/10/2020 03:34

Nothing to report here, implant removed 1 September and still no bleeding or ovulation, just the same boring faint lines on all of my OPKs!
Glad you seem to be on a better trajectory post implant @Annie1290. I think I am chalking my issues up to breastfeeding 🤱

mrsof20118 · 30/10/2020 06:45

Hey everyone. Trying to conceive number 2 here. I had a loss in August and now on cycle 2. I have a 15 month old already. Currently 8dpo.

Markygirl1995 · 30/10/2020 17:40

Hey everyone! Next month were going to start TTC baby 2. 1st baby is an october 2018. Trying to lose weight to conceive anyone is same boat

Bellaphant · 30/10/2020 22:47

@mrsof20118, mine is 15 months too.

@Markygirl1995, deffo could do with losing a little. Last pregnancy I dropped 5kg in the first twelve weeks, I was that ill!

@Char899, that's why I'm not temping, although his sleep is finally starting to improve a bit, it also means he thinks 5.45 is morning.

Markygirl1995 · 30/10/2020 22:49

@Bellaphant oh wow from sickness? Thankfully I didnt have any of that till the end suffered from really bad heartburn!

littleeggcup · 01/11/2020 12:47

Had my positive opk two days ago so think I may be on 1dpo today?? Xxx

Markygirl1995 · 01/11/2020 17:03

@littleeggcup ooo good luck x

Char899 · 01/11/2020 19:24

@littleeggcup snap! Had my positive on Friday!

MamaMoonbeam · 01/11/2020 19:29

According to my OPKs (and my aching left ovary), I think I'll be peaking tomorrow! 😀 exciting!!

Bellaphant · 02/11/2020 00:21

I'm really not loving the opks, but i technically should be in my fertile week starting this weekend, managed to dtd twice, so a good start? With the opks my two darkest tests have been this afternoon (hopeful) and on cycle day 7....

Seems like we're all testing within a week of each other.

MamaMoonbeam · 02/11/2020 06:04

Wow @Bellaphant ! CD7? I'm CD17. Weird how we're all testing within a week!

littleeggcup · 02/11/2020 08:07

Cd 19! Testing next Monday.... eep

MamaMoonbeam · 02/11/2020 08:12

Eep @littleeggcup ! Exciting! Do thou think you'll manage to hold off testing until then? Halloween Grin

littleeggcup · 02/11/2020 10:03

@MamaMoonbeam probably not haha. My boobs have hurt since yesterday so I know I've definitely ovulated. Dtd every day- we shall see....

I don't have much hope due to my ectopic surgery in sept though! I know it might take some time. My remaining tube isn't 100% perfect! But the dr said it shouldn't effect my fertility too badly... this is first month ttc since the surgery so got a long old journey ahead!!

MamaMoonbeam · 02/11/2020 11:24

@littleeggcup aw, well you'll just have to wait and see.
I'm thinking that I'll ovulate today or tomorrow. Got ovulation pain, CM is watery and cervix is high and soft so 🤞🏻🤞🏻 we catch it.
Will make sure we DTD later and see how it goes. It's our first cycle TTC and im super anxious about it!

Bellaphant · 03/11/2020 17:47

@MamaMoonbeam, I'm half convinced by bladder isn't strong enough to get a result! But I did get my two darkest last night and today, which makes sense because I'm cd14 today.

@Mommabear20, how you doing? You must be similar to me.
@littleeggcup, im impatient already on cycle 2, lol.

MamaMoonbeam · 03/11/2020 18:08

@Bellaphant that does make sense! I think I actually missed my peak.
Lines were darkening Sat night, quite quickly and then they were lighter on Sunday morning 🤷🏻‍♀️ might get another peak but have DTD thurs, fri, sun, mon, tues so there's plenty of seed up there... DP was not happy when I said there were probably dead sperm up there too... like a sperm graveyard 🤭🤭🤭 so I guess that makes me 2DPO now 😬😬

@littleeggcup I'm CD18! Test with meeeeeee! 😁 will I be too early to test on Monday with you? x

Bellaphant · 03/11/2020 18:33

We did wed, Fri, sat, sun, Mon, so maybe 'peaked' too early, lol, will try tonight and then like Thursday and let the poor boy rest...

Char899 · 03/11/2020 18:42

@MamaMoonbeam I’m cd18 too! 3dpo! I’m not testing until next Wednesday that’ll put me at 11dpo (if I can hold out longer I will)

MamaMoonbeam · 03/11/2020 18:49

Lol @Bellaphant !! Our men don't realise how good they have it with us letting them rest! 😂

Ooh @Char899 , should probably wait til then too... patience is a virtue ... apparently 🤣😂

Char899 · 03/11/2020 19:39

@MamaMoonbeam haha yes! Definitely easier said than done... I’m feeling less anxious this month though a bit more relaxed! What will be will be 😌
