Who else is praying to conceive this month?
I’m on CD 1 so I’m praying I conceive this month. Had copper coil removed just over a month ago now, and we avoided conceiving last month as hubby didn’t want an August baby (he’s an aug bub himself)
I’ve always been regular with my cycle and regular with ovulation (continued tracking while on coil) so hoping we get lucky 🤞🏼

Feeling a bit deflated too, did my FRER with FMU and there was only the faintest of lines; would have thought it would be stronger than that so think I’m out. Annoying cos I don’t have any obvious AF symptoms to accept she’s on her way too, just have to wait it out.

@arc91 a faint line is more hopeful than no line, you're not out yet🙂
I'll keep testing till I get a BFP or af arrives.
As much as i feel less hopeful I will not give up yet. I don't feel.like af is due either usually full of spots, eat like a piggie and feel ugh. I've got none of that just a bit crampy, bbs still sore/heavy and I'm really hot.🥵

arc91 · 15/12/2020 11:07

@DOB78 have you done a test today? I’ve woken up with the worst headache but I never really know my AF symptoms I’ve always have really easy hard to notice periods!

How’s everyone else’s tests looking? I know there were a few hopefuls! ☺️

DOB78 · 15/12/2020 11:10

@arc91 yes I did 2 one poas and one cheapie both BFN. I'm alright about it I just wanna know either way, its just poop waiting

Lille4 · 15/12/2020 11:53

@DOB78 sorry to hear you got a bfn. Fingers crossed for next cycle and until af shows I wouldn't rule anything out 😊

@arc91i see the line! Looks like a bfp to me. Happy for you 🎉 How many dpo are you? Praying you get some progression in a couple days. Fingers crossed 🙏

Twittwoo2020 · 15/12/2020 12:39

@arc91i would be counting this as a BFP? Your hormone might be still building up hopefully will get darker in a few days 🤞🏼🤞🏼

futuremum234 · 15/12/2020 12:57

Can I join? I had strong ovulation pains on Sunday and egg white cm on sat. Luckily we did dtd on sat night. But couldnt any more as we're going through fertility tests next week. I'm hoping I've caught it just in time

DOB78 · 15/12/2020 13:37

@Lille4 thanks. I just wanna know😫.

@arc91 apologises if my response sounded negative I really didn't mean it that way. Sorry x

Alist12 · 15/12/2020 15:05

Think I have missed my LH surge but I dtd Friday morning, Sunday night and yesterday so I think I got my bases covered. Let the 2 week wait begin. Ughhh

arc91 · 15/12/2020 15:49

@Lille4 @Twittwoo2020 do you think? I’ve been so teary all day because of it but taking that as a sign AF is on her way too. I will probably test until AF does come and if it doesn’t get darker the next couple of days I’ll know. How are you both?

I’m around 12dpo.

@DOB78 no not at all!! I know the waiting is the worst!

Katiecorn · 15/12/2020 16:10

@arc91 i can see the second line too! Fingers crossed for you. I know how you feel every single cramp and niggle I'm expecting AF to arrive but so far she's still held off 😫

arc91 · 15/12/2020 16:36

@Katiecorn How many days late are you now? Have you done another test? 🤞🏼

Katiecorn · 15/12/2020 17:19

Im on day 5 now, no haven't taken another test since the negative one on monday haha. Still waiting on the frer tests to arrive, was tempted to buy some today but i refrained.. scared of the disappointment x

EssentialHummus · 15/12/2020 17:26

Checking back in. I’m still in my ovulation window and even I want to bloody test already! Grin I feel super odd down there, just a heavy sort of feeling. Could be psychosomatic I bet. It’s going to be a looooong two weeks.

MamaMoonbeam · 15/12/2020 17:28

I don't know that an Xmas bfp is going to happen for us. My cycle has been super off after the chemical - have yet to have ovulation confirmed by temp and this is the time I'd usually have af starting. Meh!

arc91 · 15/12/2020 17:50

@Katiecorn I really wish I had your will power! Well done you x

@EssentialHummus 🤞🏼 the magic happens now!

@MamaMoonbeam do you know what CD you are on?

MamaMoonbeam · 15/12/2020 17:56

@arc91 cd28 based on first day of miscarriage bleed, so actually a few days early for af. Usually ovulate cd16/17 and af cd31 x

arc91 · 15/12/2020 17:59

@MamaMoonbeam let’s hope it’s true what they say about being super fertile after mc, so sorry to hear! I had 4 months wasted after mine as it took that long to completely leave my body, this is out 1st cycle ttc after it 🤞🏼🤞🏼

MamaMoonbeam · 15/12/2020 18:03

@arc91 it's hard especially when you just want to get back to the properly. It's the unknown that frustrates me. Hoping things resume fairly quickly. Would even be glad to see af this side of Xmas! Fx for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

arc91 · 15/12/2020 18:05

@MamaMoonbeam I know people say it takes time etc but time has made it worse I just wanted to get straight back to ttc again! Is this your first?

In an attempt to get to know each other a bit more, I’m 29 (30 on 3rd Jan and was desperate to get BFP by then), been with DH for 9 years, married last year!

arc91 · 15/12/2020 18:06

Oh and TTC #1

arc91 · 15/12/2020 18:08

@MamaMoonbeam and yea the unknown! I’ve never wanted to see a fortune tell before but I want to go now to know if I’ll have children 🙈

MamaMoonbeam · 15/12/2020 18:09

@arc91 ikr! I am ttc my first with OH and my second. I have an 11 year old ds from a previous relationship and I am 37 😊 so always worried about my age too! The chemical happened on our first cycle of ttc so I suppose we know it can happen!

Katiecorn · 15/12/2020 18:28

@arc91 wasn't so much willpower as more my OH didn't reply in time while I was in shop, had to leave for school run hahaha. Suppose its a good thing giving it a few couple more days. It will happen for us all one way or another we have to keep faith. Got the worst headache ever tonight 😫 x

Alist12 · 15/12/2020 18:51

Hiya girls I was supposed to ovulate yesterday but haven't gotten a positive opk yet but I was having a few mild cramps in my left side and had 2-3 drops of blood and that was it. Could I have still ovulated and just have missed my surge?
This is my opk from an hour ago it's gotten a bit darker but not a lot.
That would make me 1dpo but I normally dry up straight after ovulation and I'm having white watery cm.
The lighting in the photos are not good but here they are
