Me!! 11DPO today, cycles are usually 26-28 days with me ovulating between CD12/CD14, last 2 months have been CD12. This month I didn't ovulate until CD20!! Which is going to make my cycle 34 days long 😩 I've never had one this long! Feels like the longest 2WW ever because of the extra cycle days.

We've been TTC our first for 7 months now. I'm 26 and have no known problems, so it's very disheartening every month when AF comes. I've learnt not to trust my body's symptoms anymore, I've had a few months where I've thought I might have pregnancy symptoms - vivid dreams, veiny boobs, nausea, getting up to wee in the night etc, and I've got my hopes up and ended up devastated. Currently have very sore boobs, tiredness and headaches, but could also be AF so trying not to think about it.

What about you, any interesting signs or symptoms?!

🙋🏼‍♀️ I'm 12dpo cycle 4 TTC and pretty sure I can feel AF on her way (unwelcome as usual)!!

We were due to get married in June.. and then September but I'm still a fiancé!!

I also was convinced last month was the month.. vivid dreams for about a week and wide awake at 4:30am latest but it wasn't.

It's so hard isn't it 😩

Hey guys! Nice to meet you!!
@MF24 I’m usually around CD 12 too. How strange you ovulated on CD 20. It’s so weird, I have read threads and sometimes people just ovulate at such random times! Why can’t it just be like clock work each month? It’s so annoying right? Uh don’t like the sound of a long cycle. Hopefully it will go quick for you.

Oh man. It’s so hard isn’t it and I completely understand what you mean. Before TTC I don’t think I ever really felt much AF or had these sore boobs - and since I started TTC these symptoms came from nowhere but they are obviously just AF related. I try my best not to symptom spot but I always tend to.

I’m TTC my first - I’m 30, been married for 5 years. Me and hubby have done all our travelling etc so wanted to start trying this year so I’m on cycle 4. At the moment I just have low back pain and cramps basically just how I would feel if AF was coming so I think it’s on it’s way!! One month I was absolutely sure I conceived like u had a metal taste/nausea but still AF came lol - it must have been in my head!! Are you taking any pre natal vitamins or have you tried anything funky?

@beckyBP I’m 12dpo now too technically haha! And I can also feel AF on her way which isn’t great!

Oh man I’m so sorry that bloody Covid has ruined your wedding plans. So annoying and now it seems like it’s getting worse. Where were you due to get married?

Oh god - why does our body play with our minds when we TTC? It’s so hard. Do you test early or just wait? When’s your AF due?

Are you guys waiting to see if af arrives or testify g before? I'm sick of buying tests and ovulation sticks!! I think I'm around 10 dpo took a great yesterday and it's bfn

beckyBP · 17/10/2020 08:50

@AKcheer it is super stressful isn't it and it really does play with your head. I'm exactly the same, I don't think I really took much notice of my body before.

I have been taking vitamins recommended by Luisa Zuisman but had a bit of a break from them this month. Also didn't do ovulation strips this month (it's been a crazy month)

It really does doesn't it! I don't think we'll bother for a couple of years as we just won't be able to have the wedding we want until Covid is gone.

I have been testing (although said I wouldn't) typically on the day AF is due or if it's been late the day it's arrived. I'm not going to this month & I don't have any in the house so I can't 😂

How about you?

@lastbany it's so hard no to isn't it

AKcheer · 17/10/2020 09:03

@beckyBP Oh are they any good?I only take folic acid and vitamin D. I tried pregnacare and they messed with my cycle so much I didn’t know if I was coming or on going!!

Yeah that sounds like a good shout. It must be so hard to re plan and then have to change everything again so I think it’s nice to wait and get the day you actually wanted. Hopefully this will be over at some point.

I did like cycle 1 and 2 now I don’t bother. I don’t keep any in the house I just wait until my period and obviously if my period didn’t come for a few days I’d test but I ain’t been in that situation!!!

Hey @lastbany how long you been trying for? I don’t test early but do have cheapie opks from Amazon!

@AKcheer hi there! Ok do I have a 17/12 year old and also a 10 month old! My reasons for getting preg asap is purely because it will be my lst babay and I can't beat leaving this baby for long at work I wand to spend as much time with them together as I was very young and worked threw all my older kids when was younger and didn't appreciate it like I am this time I've basically been off the pill for 4 months (mini pill) but going off flo! This month we really ttc but ovulation sticks (clear blue) got 7 days flashing! And ran out of sticks of day 17 ( I conceived lo on day 17 according to dates) however I have been so so lucky previously and fell pregnant very easily even on the bloody coil! Unfortunately miscarried when they removed it though! So I don't want to sound disrespectful to all those who have been ttc for a long time! I was starting to worry is it due to my age (37) I don't know I just sort of had it all planned (as I'm sure we all do) I am so worried I'm not even ovulating!!
