Hey all! Today is ovulation day, the 2WW is about to begin. Anyone else on the same cycle? Let's agonise over possible symptoms together!

@Violet1988 ahh amazing! Congratulations!

klm018 · 05/04/2021 11:17

@Violet1988 congratulations on your BFP

HopingForBabyM2021 · 05/04/2021 11:27

@luce2202 so sorry to hear that my lovely. Hoping this cycle is your cycle! Not sure why you'd still be getting faint lines, I find it all so confusing ☹️

@Violet1988 oh wow! Congrats lovely! That's a really nice line!!!! So happy for you.

I've been compulsively testing morning and night, still nothing more than a questionable shadow. Last night and this morning I've had cramps and light brown CM when I wipe. AF due Thursday. It's either implantation or a very strange and unusual start to AF. As it's brown and mucous-y I am hoping it's implantation. Time will tell!

How's everyone else getting on?

@Violet1988 congratulations!! That's amazing news for you. 💕💕

@Veronika13 according to my app AF would be expected on Wednesday so my plan was, if nothing there when I first wake up, to test then.

But having said that I've just in the past hour or two come over feeling like AF is very much on the way in the next few days so I'm probably not going to get to the testing stage.

Feeling a bit teary now. It's only my second cycle trying (first proper one with OPK etc) but I'm 35 this month and just panicking I've left TTC all bit too late Sad xx

Poppypop87 · 05/04/2021 11:49

@Violet1988 ah congratulations! Smile that's great news.

@luce2202 sorry to hear that, fingers crossed for your next cycle 🤞

@HopingForBabyM2021 that's odd, if AF isn't due yet then could be implantation 🤞

@Sparklestars86 I've been driving myself crazy and reading old threads where people have said they had proper AF signs and then got their bfp. Probably not a good thing as gets your hopes up a bit but you're not out until she arrives.

AF is due today for me but no sign yet. I had cramps on Friday and Saturday and was convinced it was on the way, this just messes with your head doesn't it! Have ordered some tests to arrive tomorrow so will test then

Sparklestars86 · 05/04/2021 12:35

@Poppypop87 thank you. That does make me feel cautiously a little better. Lots of luck for your testing tomorrow. 💕
I genuinely had no idea how stressful this was going to be! Just naively thought mother nature would be ready and waiting to do her thing as soon as we decided we were ready. Here's hoping... 🤞🤞 Xx

Sparklestars86 · 05/04/2021 14:06

So, I'm just all talk by saying I was going to wait. I got teary earlier so my husband persuaded me that we should test now rather than have it hanging over us for the next few days. I genuinely thought it would just be confirming my suspicions about AF being on the way. But this happened... I know there is a looong way to go yet but I'm enjoying this moment for now. Smile💕💕

1 DPO tomorrow! Any buddies?

Congratulations. Hope it sticks x

Violet1988 · 05/04/2021 14:19

@Sparklestars86 wow that's a strong line! Have you looked up your estimated due date yet? X

Sparklestars86 · 05/04/2021 14:25

@bitheby thank you! Keeping everything crossed🤞🤞
@Violet1988 I hadn't til you mentioned it! Should be 16 or 18 December (I'm not 100% sure what my average cycle length is but between 26 and 28.) Xx

Poppypop87 · 05/04/2021 14:30

@Sparklestars86 oh wow, that's a really strong line. Congratulations!! Smile

klm018 · 05/04/2021 14:42

@Sparklestars86 congratulations that's a great line.

Violet1988 · 05/04/2021 15:05

@sparklestars86 mine is 15-17 December x

HopingForBabyM2021 · 05/04/2021 15:46

@Sparklestars86 I am so happy for you!!!!! Congrats!!

So happy that this thread has turned out to be so lucky for so many. To those who are out for this month (and I'm becoming increasingly convinced I'm out too), next month will be ours, I can just feel it 💞💞 xxx

@Sparklestars86 that's an amazing line, massive congratulations!❤️

@HopingForBabyM2021 you're not out until AF arrives, but yes I agree, next month is definitely the month for all of us who AF has snuck up on!!💕

luce2202 · 05/04/2021 15:52

@Violet1988 congratulations on your line! Hopefully it sticks and it's a BFP! Keep us updated! X

Sparklestars86 · 05/04/2021 17:53

@violet1988 could very well end up on the same day! Star xx

HopingForBabyM2021 · 05/04/2021 20:00

Well, AF is here. Had some bright red, stringy blood when I wiped this eve. I'm so much more upset than I thought I would be. Having a little (ok big) cry. I know they say it takes months, maybe even a year, and I need to get used to it. But we did everything we could, OPKs, BDIng everyday over 6 day fertile period, and it didn't work. Also bummed that it seems my luteal phase is on the short side, getting AF at 11 DPO. Sad times ☹️

On to the next cycle I guess...

luce2202 · 05/04/2021 20:27

@HopingForBabyM2021 So sorry to hear AF arrived. Mine arrived at 10DPO this time so my LP was also pretty short. I think it's ok if it's a one off occurrence!
We're pretty close in terms of CD's. This will be our cycle!!💫💫

Flossyvossy · 05/04/2021 21:03

Sorry to hear that @HopingForBabyM2021 :( fingers crossed for the next month

For those that are out this month I think I'll be joining you. 11dpo, lots of negative tests, and feel af on the way. Want to get it over with now so I can start again in a couple of weeks

Congrats to all the ladies who've had their bfp's! 🌠

Veronika13 · 05/04/2021 22:39

@Sparklestars86 ah lovely, you're not too old at 35 to have a baby! I'm 34 and ttc first cycle ☺️ where I live the majority of first mums are late 30s.

You're still so young, you've only just started trying, give yourself and your body a chance .
There are women who are early 40s and just started trying- and they're not too old either 😀
Try to stay positive as that is the good environment for us to conceive 😊 but also there is not one reason at the moment for worry, we have only started trying ttc :) It will happen eventually, just do all the required things and I'm sure we will get our positive test sooner than later 😚

Veronika13 · 05/04/2021 23:40

@Sparklestars86 OMG just seen your update, amazing!!!! Hahah seeeee, you're in your prime to become a mum, so happy for you- what a strong line 🤩 congratulations 🎉

BrodieKD · 06/04/2021 06:47

@Sparklestars86 ahhh congratulations! Thrilled for you!

Sparklestars86 · 06/04/2021 06:57

Thank you for the lovely comments 💕💕
Hoping there are some more BFPs from everyone still in it for this cycle.
And wishing everyone who's now getting ready for next month the best of luck and baby dust to you all. xx

Poppypop87 · 06/04/2021 14:55

Just an update from me...AF was due yesterday so did a test about an hour ago and can't believe it!

1 DPO tomorrow! Any buddies?
