@DrS44 Up to 40 days are classed as normal
Though so just because it’s longer doesn’t meant it impacts your chances x

@DrS44 aww that's annoying you haven't ovulated yet. I did take pregnacare, yes. Can't really say if it delayed anything as I didn't have a proper cycle, I concieved a few weeks off the pill. You could always switch to plain folic acid and vit D if you have any concerns. Hopefully your cycles will settle down... I don't know if there is anything with a long cycle in itself, it's more you get fewer chances over a year?

*anything wrong with a long cycle

Is what that should say 🙂

@jessi60 ok that's good to know thank you! And thanks @GreenApplesYo hopefully it'll happen in the next few days! I only have until next Friday 🤣

@DrS44 frustrating! I was taking a normal multivit, folic acid, b12 and vit d for about a year before trying to conceive anyway due to various deficiencies, I switched to pregnacare for the last cycle but had only been on it a couple of weeks before my positive so can't say much about it. I was so so lucky to get my BFP after a withdrawal bleed so also can't say if it delayed anything.

Are you getting any other signs of ovulation, any EWCM? Hoping for that peak soon for you! Maybe test twice a day if you're not already just to make sure you catch it?

@GreenApplesYo honestly every day feels like a month at the moment. I'm counting the days until my scan and hoping I'll feel reassured then! I can't stop looking at pictures of what the embryo looks like at each week- at week 4 it looks really bizarre haha. I did tell my manager earlier this week and felt better for it, I think if anything did go wrong I'd want the support from work anyway. It is nice to share the excitement with people too isn't it.

Thank you @Dex1521 I'm going to start bbt tracking from end of period I think, will probably have to post charts in here to get help with analysing 😅🙈

Very short lived late af for me- arrived this morning with a bang🙈 just holding onto the positives- can relax and enjoy Xmas and a decent LP length. According to apps my most fertile days this month are Xmas eve and Xmas day- hopefully that will bring some luck😅🤞 we're moving in with DP's parents next week while we wait on news of our house- will be like teenagers again sneaking around dtd at every opportunity 🙈

Not sure what else we can do, literally lay with legs in the air everyone dtd so I guess it's just chance that they egg and sperm didn't cross paths 🤷‍♀️ but there is always that wee fear that there are fertility issues 😬

I'm happy to stay as one group of everyone else is- I like the advice from the pg ladies🙏

I've been taking pregnacare, might leave it out this month and see what happens. Xx

Great stuff!!! I might use a combo then, some of those suggestions from @DrS44 were legendary! I'll set it up shortly and tag everyone in

So glad we can stay as one group! I feel so invested in everyone's journey but obviously didn't want to upset anyone with baby and mat leave lunch talking 😂😂😂

Hello!
Ooh that's a positive @Melani1995 😀
My surge started on cd17 @DrS44 I was testing twice a day until then so 🤞🏻it will be similar for you. I've been taking Pregnacare since
September and my Cycles in the months before were 35, 39, 43 and 39 days so it made them more regular for me at 34 days.
Thank you @Foxl2222 😆 24 hours since finding out and still don't believe it! Yes, take the positives from a decent length LP. And you get to drink over xmas and eat everything 🤣 Hah that will be a fun two days for you guys!!
Wow 10 weeks @GreenApplesYo - do you still have nausea and how are you feeling in general?
@Bells20 - was it only the once you saw some spotting? It's normal for some isn't it? I don't know I'll react if I saw any. Probably tell all of you straightaway 😄 how long are you going to keep on temping? Hahaha love that you did it in a similar way too! I just couldn't wait! I had to leave for work and I didn't want to whatsapp a picture to him of what could be one of the most important things I say to him ever 😂😂
I'm also happy to keep it to one thread @AMS19 but only if everyone else is ok with
It being a mix. Love a festive name! ⛄️

Temp still high over here. Woke up at 5am for the 2nd day running and found myself googling hospital reviews 🤦🏻‍♀️

I was wondering about vitamins too. I did take pregnacare last month but after two weeks swapped to seven seas as I’d heard better reviews about it plus it’s half the price. The ladies are are pg what vitamins did you take if you did use them? And do you think it helped also did you do anything different the month you did get your BFP?
@AMS19 @GreenApplesYo @Bells20 and anyone else as I can’t keep up with it sometimes 😂

Does this seem normal as I’ve no idea kinda disappointed my today’s OPK results I seem to have gone full circle. I am only CD 10 though but predicted to ovulate next Wednesday roughly should it be getting higher or not until just before the surge. Attached a updated chart and OPK readings

Looks normal to me @Dex1521 Here's my chart at cd10 for you. I was exactly like that 😀 just keep testing same time everyday. I started testing twice a day from cd12 at 11am and 4pm though, in case I missed that surge

@PowerOfFlowers that’s really reassuring thank you so much! Always have this voice telling me I’ve something wrong with me fertility wise I’ve no idea why 🤣

Haha no worries @Dex1521 I was (and still am!!) the same 😄

@DrS44 this was mine and didn’t have a peak until CD 20. I didn’t have any other symptoms to alongside it though.
I still haven’t got my period and on cycle day 34 at the minute with a negative pregnancy test yesterday, although it wasn’t a sensitive one. I can only assume my cycle is messed up this month 🤷🏻‍♀️ and just waiting for my period to arrive.

Does anyone know do I just continue counting the cycle days until af arrives? And when the hell would I start opk testing again if it doesn’t come and for some reason I don’t have one this month 😂 xx

@PowerOfFlowers what day did you peak?

@jessi60 oh that's good! Hmmm have you got a FRER yet? I would be testing like a mad woman!!

I peaked cd18 @DrS44 Here's my chart for then. As you can see, it all happened very quickly!
I would definitely continue to count the cycle days @jessi60 I don't know about opk testing I'm afraid, I'm still a beginner in all of this too 😂

@DrS44 No😂 I’ve been preoccupied on night shift, just finished this morning but haven’t been to bed yet, I’ve popped out for abit of Xmas shopping (braving the metro centre haha) Could always get one whilst I’m here. I think I just think my chances are low with being unwell so feel like taking a test and it being negative just annoys me 😂😂 x

@PowerOfFlowers thank you that gives me some reassurance! @jessi60 get a two pack 😅 then it's not really a waste 👏🏻🤣🤣

@Happythoughts91 just thinking, how are you getting on since you were the OP who started this thread? Love to hear any updates ☺️
