Hey!

Want to get a group of ladies who are TTC at the same time to have someone to chat to during this journey together. It's a lonely process for me and only
In early stages of trying but would love advice, tips and general chat. This is an open chat and can't wait to chat to you all

@1992EM hopefully that’s a good sign. AF appeared today for me (as painful as ever!)

Got my fingers crossed for you! Hope you get your BFP x

1992EM · 23/12/2020 18:42

@LRW26 sorry to hear about AF . I have started spotting again so think it will come for me too . 😔

LRW26 · 23/12/2020 21:21

@1992EM aw I’m sorry to hear that, there’s not much to say but I guess I know exactly how you feel and it is just so frustrating. Make sure you enjoy Christmas and try to be positive for the next month! Hopefully 2021 brings us both our BFP!

1992EM · 23/12/2020 21:25

@LRW26 I just wish it would hurry up and start if it is coming . I hate spotting as I second guess it and always end up getting my hopes up x

LRW26 · 23/12/2020 21:26

@1992EM could you not just test so you knew for sure? Save getting your hopes up and then at least you’ll know? X

1992EM · 23/12/2020 22:04

@LRW26 I will test in the morning and use fmu . I wish I had tested this morning but honestly thought I would have started by now . Least by tomorrow I will know either way . I have early detection frer so will use that and also have a digital one too x

1992EM · 24/12/2020 10:30

Didn't bother testing as AF has started and loveky cramps to go with it 😔. X

LRW26 · 24/12/2020 13:37

@1992EM aw I’m sorry to here AF has arrived. Hope you’re ok, just try and be positive and enjoy Christmas. I can’t wait to start trying again now but until then I’ve got a lovely bottle of gin to enjoy 😊 x

1992EM · 24/12/2020 16:14

@LRW26 thank you. I am the same going to just enjoy christmas and have a few drinks and then will get back to ttc after . I hope you have a lovely Christmas xx

LRW26 · 24/12/2020 20:18

Hello, hope everyone is ok? I am CD 12 - waiting on my peak CB test. Had a ultra sound scan on 18th and all looked clear- put my mind at ease. I'm on annual leave until 4th Jan so hopefully as I'm less stressed and have more time on my hands we will catch it! I can hope!

apwilso · 27/12/2020 18:41

@laura2093 I'm off till then as well I'm hoping the same. Currently I'm on cycle day 21 think I'm past ovulation and I'm bloated and feel sick so god knows

OP posts:
1992EM · 27/12/2020 18:56

@apwilso I hope you had a lovely Christmas. AF has now finished so onto planning next cycle. Have ordered CB ovulation tests to confirm ovulation. Good luck, when do you plan to test x

laura2093 · 27/12/2020 19:11

@apwilso fingers crossed! We're trying the SMEP too xxx

1992EM · 27/12/2020 20:35

@Laura2093 we will be trying this again this month too. Hopefully because we are off and I will be working from home initially that it will be doable x

TtcPhee · 27/12/2020 20:58

I’d love to join haha !! Trying for baby no. 1 ! Had a chemical pregnancy a few months ago now (:

Tabbycat92 · 27/12/2020 22:36

So I'm now 1 day late, which is strange for me. I feel like AF is gonna arrive any minute, but also staying hopeful.
I'm not planning to test again until a few days late.
How's everyone else doing?
Hope you all had a great christmas

apwilso · 27/12/2020 22:58

@1992EM thanks I did and hope you do too. Fingers crossed for this cycle you trying anything else new or sticking to the same tatics?xx

@laura2093 it sounds the best method to me!

@TtcPhee sorry to hear that I think I had one two cycles ago x

@Tabbycat92 fingers crossed for you! How you have the control to do that I don't know!!!

I'm on cycle day 21. A lot of weird symptoms had sensitive teeth which I never get, tiredness, my temperature has been up and down. Tonight I've had a weird one which I want some advise on!!

Been severely bloated all day like never seen myself like this before genuinely look pregnant. Had some abdominal pain but nothing major like and anyway been on a walk like 5 mins in and my back seized up on the lower left side where it made me stop and want to stretch it out. Then it went around into like my pelvic area to where like your joint is and now I had like pelvic ache on mainly the left side for back and front. Could this be like implantation or pregnancy or what!?

@TtcPhee welcome and sorry to hear about your chemical. Hopefully you get your BFP soon.

@tabbycat92 oh that is exciting. Have you tested at all ?
@apwilso I am glad you had a good Christmas, I did too even though AF was horrendous this month. I am going to stick to SMEP but have CB ovulation to confirm ovulation as the last ones I ovulated early and we dtd the 3 days in a row as I thought it must just be high but not peak. I also have preseed for this month. I had this last month but again didn't use as missed the peak. I have went back to pregnecare conception (I started on these and moved to seven seas ). I also take maccaroot which is supposed to help fertility. Since taking it , I have had 14 day luteal phase so hopefully is doing something. There isn't a lot of research on it though but I thought it couldn't do any harm. Also going to go on a health kick and try to go a long walk most days (which will be easier as I should hopefully be working from home ). Hopefully you won't need these ideas though as you will have you BFP this month x

Tabbycat92 · 28/12/2020 07:54

Yes @1992em I tested at 10dpo and 12dpo. Both negative, though I thought I saw a slight line at 10dpo

laura2093 · 28/12/2020 09:17

Last month I ovulated on day 13 - this cycle still no smiley face on day 13? Can ovulation vary month to month?

1992EM · 28/12/2020 11:11

TTC chat 2 - www.mumsnet.com/talk/conception/4118129-ttc-chat-2

I have made a new thread as this one is now full.

@laura2093 my ovulation dates can vary. For example last month I ovulated day 14 but the months before were day 18 .
