I FINALLY got my rise! Positive opk was 3 days later than usual and ovulation seems later than usual too after the peak! 🙈

BUT I'm in the TWW officially!! Who's with me?! I plan to analyse everything and I'll probably test early with cheapies for a laugh! No point in pretending I'll be calm and controlled throughout this TWW!!

Officially 3rd month TTC baby number 3. But had a few months before that "seeing what happens" DS 2 and DS 11months.

Anyone wanna embrace the crazy with me?!

@Rct4 I'm so sorry. I hope it's just a haematoma given there's no cramping and everything is fine x

Rct4 · 28/06/2021 18:23

Thank you @acupofteamakeseverythingbetter.

@A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 I did only bleed Saturday night and Sunday but I'm pretty certain it's over as I haven't really had any symptoms since Friday. X

Unicornish · 29/06/2021 10:11

So sorry to hear that Rct4. I'm keeping everything crossed for you that you have good news on Thursday, despite your expectations. Thanks

How annoying that your GP wouldn't do the tests acupoftea. I haven't had the results back from mine yet - hopefully in the next few days.

I'm 11dpo today (I think - I've got a bit muddled this month!) and got bfn this morning. I think af will start tomorrow. Im just so tired of always seeing a negative result. Ugh.

acupofteamakeseverythingbetter · 29/06/2021 10:21

@Unicornish urgh it's so disheartening isn't it but you're not out until AF shows up.

Whenever I get my period I do something that I wouldn't have been able to do if I was pregnant such booking in for a full body massage ☺️ going to the pub or out for dinner and drinking ALLL the cocktails 🍹 but tbh I'd rather have a BFP but doing these things help to get me through until I can actively start trying again in my fertile window. TTC sucks sometimes!!! Xxx

Unicornish · 29/06/2021 13:08

Thanks acupoftea - I usually have a large g&t on the first day of my period to ease the pain. For medicinal reasons, you understand. WinkGrin

How do you find acupuncture? I've been wondering about giving that a try.

acupofteamakeseverythingbetter · 30/06/2021 06:50

Great, I find it really relaxing. I went to a different acupuncturist a few years ago to help with an injury and I found that experience quite painful and not relaxing at all! But this guy is great, he puts the needles in and leaves me for 30 mins. Wish I could nap easily because that would be a perfect napping opportunity 😂 I've only been twice so far so don't know if it's helping me yet or not but I feel like I'm being proactive towards getting a BFP so mentally its good for me xx

Belle34 · 30/06/2021 19:33

Hi Belle, I'm new to the thread too. I hope af hasn't shown up for you.

Af showed up yesterday evening for me. So I'm cd2 today. This is last month's chart.

What supplements is everyone taking?

Belle34 · 01/07/2021 10:20

@Unicornish - sorry AF showed up for you. Hope July is your lucky month 🍀

11 dpo today temp went up not sure what to make of it, will know for sure in the next 2 days or at least I am hoping 😅

I am taking omega 3, vit D, Proceive and myo inositol as I suffer from PCOS..

Hopefulhedgehog · 01/07/2021 10:48

@SlothMamaToBe I’ve lost track of you. I think you must be coming towards the end of another cycle? Fingers crossed for you 🤞 do you have a date for DP’s SA? I’m expecting ovulation in next 2 days. x

Unicornish · 01/07/2021 13:58

Good luck with ovulation hedgehog!

SlothMamaToBe · 01/07/2021 17:32

Hey @Hopefulhedgehog ! How’s everything with you? Yes thank you for thinking of me AF due Sunday. Im around 11dpo today, caved and tested with frer and BFN so more than likely I’m out so just waiting (again!) 🙁.

Hopefulhedgehog · 01/07/2021 18:23

I’ve just had positive OPK this evening. DTD last night so will aim for tonight and tomorrow as well. I’m not temping this month and I think I have been a bit more chilled but maybe that’s just because I’m not in the TWW yet!

I’ll keep everything crossed for you @SlothMamaToBe still a way to go until Sunday

SlothMamaToBe · 01/07/2021 19:44

Ooh good luck then @Hopefulhedgehog!! Yes I felt the same this month in general with not temping but it’s been difficult as I get nearer to that AF date. Hmm you’re right but I think if I was pregnant I’d at least get a faint bfp on a frer by now wouldn’t I?

Belle34 · 01/07/2021 20:58

@SlothMamaToBe I am in the same boat as you r 11 dpo, didn't test today but tested yesterday and BFN.. 😞 waiting for temp to go up in the next few days if there's any chance for me this month...

Will keep everything crossed for you 🤞

SlothMamaToBe · 01/07/2021 21:06

Thank you @Belle34 ! 🤞 for you too! Are you waiting until 14dpo to test? I’m going to try and wait until Sunday now but got a feeling it will be here before then .

Belle34 · 01/07/2021 22:44

@SlothMamaToBe I am going to do the same, wait until sun easier said than done.. resist all the temptations 😅

Unicornish · 02/07/2021 09:06

I'm keeping everything crossed for you both Sloth and Belle.

I'm glad you're feeling chilled at the moment hedgehog. I'm going to try to channel that this month!

Cd3 for me so nothing much to report. I've ordered some vitamin C to take in addition to all the other crap supplements I'm taking!

Hopefulhedgehog · 02/07/2021 15:56

Ovulation day for me today - CD12. We have not DTD much at all this month but did CD10 and 11 and will DTD tonight so I think we’ve managed the key days! This is Cycle #7 for us so it’s starting to feel like we’re in for the long haul.

ContadoraExplorer · 02/07/2021 19:40

You just need that one swimmer to get it right @hopefulhedgehog so fingers crossed for you!

SlothMamaToBe · 02/07/2021 20:10

@Unicornish thank you… unfortunately AF has turned up for me early this month 26 day cycle 🙁… last months was 30! I don’t know what the hell is going on with my body any more.

Hopefulhedgehog · 03/07/2021 15:41

Sorry AF has turned up early for you @SlothMamaToBe what is she playing at? I had a random short cycle a few months ago and never really came up with an explanation.

1dpo for me today. Long wait ahead I usually have a 16 day TWW! Feeling hopeful after DTD on the 3 most fertile days.

Hopefulhedgehog · 03/07/2021 15:44

Thanks @ContadoraExplorer hope all going ok for you x

LemonDrizzle44 · 03/07/2021 19:24

Hi All,

How's everyone been getting on? Have been quiet as nothing much to report with DP working away and not DTD in my fertile week.

AF arrived for me today. My LP has changed again, usually 16 days, went up to 17 days last cycle. This cycle it's come down to 15 days. I've read a variation of 1-2 days is ok, so hoping it's nothing to worry about.
With AF arriving means I will have my day 3 bloods done on Monday. Just hoping I ovulate a little later this month so my day 21 bloods don't fall when I'm on holiday 😬. Also have ultrasound booked too later this month so will hopefully get some answers.

Belle34 · 04/07/2021 11:19

@SlothMamaToBe - sorry AF showed up for u. BFN today, temp dropped below cover line and super emotional today.. I just hope AF shows up now.

In the background we've been also investigating reasons for my earlier losses.. DH SA results came back and DNA fragmentation is almost 50% which is super awful news... DH don't want to talk about it and it has always been a struggle for him to take any supplements... waiting for consultation to repeat these tests again... think our next option is IVF which I am not sure will work.. 😢
