@Lins3y congratulations!! Very exciting. I think it was like having a first again with the gap, almost - I forgot everything!!

AthersB · 08/03/2021 20:59

@GemV3 I use the Clear Blue pink ones - not the advanced with the flashing smilies, just the static ones

GemV3 · 08/03/2021 22:12

Thanks @AthersB
Going to be a bit more strict next month and test same time/twice a day

amyannx · 08/03/2021 23:13

@Lins3y oh wow! All very close together, I'm going to keep trying as it could us a while so rather not stop incase x

amyannx · 08/03/2021 23:14

@SkaterChick good luck! What cycle day are you on? X

Somatronic · 09/03/2021 00:24

@TTCBabyWall2 well that sounds promising, though I'm sorry to hear about the miscarriage.

I don't know if I ovulate. I used OPKs for the first time last month and I'm pretty sure I got a peak (though the packet says they're not accurate for women with PCOS), and I get periods every month so the GP said it's likely that I do. Here's hoping!

kleelouxo · 09/03/2021 01:22

Hi all new here would like to join :)
I'm ttc first baby I ovulated for 4 days straight which was a first for me ever whilst using ovulation tests. I've also been using the seven seas ttc tablets (I tried the conceive plus lube for 3 months prior) with no luck. Here's hoping for that BFP for us all xxx

kleelouxo · 09/03/2021 01:26

Forgot to say AF due in 8 days (wait is agonising) I have really painful boobs at the moment but don't know if that's maybe too early for any signs ect. (I get achy boobs when AF due) however this cycle they feel very bruised and slight stingy pains in nipples so hoping this month is the month Smile (fingers crossed for us all *lucky baby dust

Penguinmumma · 09/03/2021 05:19

Just parking my butt here. Cycle 5, 4 cycles of fully ttc and 1 chemical to show for it. sigh

KM11 · 09/03/2021 08:56

I'm out, AF showed up right on schedule. I'm taking it as a positive that at least my cycles have become regular 🙈 going to try opks this month.
Good luck to all still in 💞

amyannx · 09/03/2021 09:09

@KM11 sorry to hear af showed up, af showed up for me yesterday! I'm the same as you being positive and came off the pill January so at least I know my cycles are regular too! I used opk's last cycle and going to use them this cycle too x

Aims1991 · 09/03/2021 10:02

So AF due today and I'm 9dpo! However I'm not crampy or sore boobs so think it'll be late! AF only been late once in the last 2 years so this is very frustrating🤣 trying hard to resist and not test! Feel very emotional just now and no idea why🙈

Rosegold007 · 09/03/2021 10:41

Hello ladies, please can I join?

Have been TTC for a year now. We had an early miscarriage in Sept 2021 at 5 weeks which was really sad - and made me want this even more.

I had a faint positive on a Co-op test yesterday but BFN this morning. FRERs arriving from Amazon today.

Has anyone used the Co-op tests before?

And does anyone else go stir crazy every cycle and turn into a testing obsessed psycho??

Thanks and good luck all :) 💫

Rosegold007 · 09/03/2021 10:44

Sorry, meant Sept 2020.

EllieAdam · 09/03/2021 11:05

@GemV3

Thanks *@melissa112* I know it’s good to stay healthy and active but some people say I do too much.

My cycles are all over the place. Gone from 28 day average. Last two months have been 32 days

All - on Premom ov sticks but if you leave the sticks on the side for longer than 5 mins can the result change? The highest surge I have is 0.72

The manual says read results and take pictures in 5-10 minutes. Sometimes I will wait a little longer before taking picture if dye does not clear at 5 minutes.
StaceyWS88 · 09/03/2021 12:04

@melissa112 your tests look positive to me!! Amazing!! Keep us updated ☺️

I tested yesterday which was CD26 and was a BFN, another BFN this morning and Ovia is showing me as being due on today. I don’t feel like I’m going to come on but sometimes i don’t get much warning so who knows! I’m trying to tell myself I’m out this month but there’s always that annoying tiny spark of hope until AF shows up 🙄 I do sometimes come on CD28 so we shall see

SkaterChick · 09/03/2021 12:27

@amyannx I think I'm day 11 or 12, AF is due Thursday 😬

amyannx · 09/03/2021 12:29

@SkaterChick good luck! I hope you get your bfp, are you going to test early? X

SkaterChick · 09/03/2021 12:34

I'm trying to make myself wait till the weekend... I don't know if I'm in a regular cycle yet as this is my first cycle post coil removal.
I had the coil removed on a Monday and AF shocked me showing on the Friday!!

Dogmum13 · 09/03/2021 16:22

Has anyone ever experienced everything they smell making them feel sick and stronger sense of smell on cd 2? I feel rotten 😪

DNpink82 · 09/03/2021 16:32

I'm on cycle #8 and used OPK's every month since starting ttc and I've never had a peak except for this month, I've got my peak today and dtd 5 out of the last 6 days and will be doing the bd again tonight and tomorrow 🤣🤞🏼 this is the month even though I said I didn't want a winter baby 🙈

March 2021 TTC Bus!
melissa112 · 09/03/2021 18:02

Hi all, welcome to everyone new 👋

@Lins3y yay for the darker 13dpo test, that's looking great! Are you going to test again?

@GemV3 I've only ever used clearblue digital as I know I'd be forever doubting myself. Even though I now realise there are apps where you can take pics of your test and it tells you your peak!

@clairehr hi 🙂 fingers crossed for you this week, have you managed to hold off testing so far?

@Charm23 oh no, sorry about AFs arrival. Wishing you loads of luck for this time and glad your back is feeling better

@AthersB amazing news, congratulations!!

@amyannx really sorry about AFs arrival
@dunkedbiscuit I did tell my OH about our fertile week. Some nights we really couldn't be bothered but just did it really quickly. Romantic hey.

Haven't managed to get on the last few days and have missed loads!

Had a wobble this morning as my test didn't look like it had progressed from yesterday. I sat on the toilet lid crying and thinking the worst. Did another this afternoon on a whim and it looks much better I think?

Top 9dpo pm
2nd 10dpo am
3rd 11dpo am
4th 11dpo pm
Good luck to all those testing soon and really sorry for those who have had AF arrive xx

March 2021 TTC Bus!
Confused678866 · 09/03/2021 18:22

@melissa112 Those tests are looking fab!!

Confused678866 · 09/03/2021 18:27

I’ve been feeling pretty positive about this cycle and I’ve been in the office today (rather than working from home) so less chance to overthink everything like I always do.
Now I’m having a wobble as I’m feeling like we didn’t DTD enough but at the time I thought we had.

DTD 27th Feb, 2nd March, 3rd & 5th. Got my peak OPK on the 5th too. Unfortunately, I didn’t test on the 4th as work got in the way so I don’t actually know if I’d have had my smiley that day too? Had lots of EWCM from the 4th to the 6th/7th (sorry for TMI). I planned on DTD on the 6th and 7th too but just didn’t get chance and we’re both exhausted at the moment. I feel like I may have actually missed my opportunity 😣

What’s everyone’s thoughts? Xx

melissa112 · 09/03/2021 18:28

@Confused678866 thank you. I am staying cautiously hopeful. First time around I wasn't aware of what could go wrong and kinda wish I didn't know now but I guess what will be will be. How's the TWW going for you?
