Bear with me...
Currently 15DPO based on suspected ovulation on 30th April. Date was based on LH surge detected by CB connected digital OPKs (I wasn't temping) and other symptoms such as ovulation pain and EWCM.
Have been testing since 10 DPO and all BFNs. Not even a hint of a squinter! Have had some symptoms - waves of nausea, pulling/stretching feeling in abdomen, some cramping and generally feeling a bit 'different'/off...
The big issue is I have NO idea when AF is actually due!
DH and I have been TTC since November, i'm 34. Came off mini pill in October and cycles between then and January were all 29 days exactly. First month using digital OPKs in January and we conceived. This ended in a CP at around 5w.
Since then my cycles have been all over the place:
Feb/Mar- 35 days - LH surge on CD24
Mar/Apr - 31 days - LH surge on the CD19
Apr/May - Currently on day 35 and LH surge was detected on CD19
However, regardless of cycle length I always always have 1-2 days of light spotting before AF arrives.
Currently sat in a huff as this morning's FMU test was another BFN. I have had no spotting indicating AF is due and i've gone from feeling excited that we might have been successful this month to annoyed that my cycles still seem to be all over the place following the CP at the start of the year. Surely such an early loss shouldn't have changed things this dramatically?!
I am taking supplements but started these before coming off the pill so don't think they are causing the cycle issues.
I have also had weight gain since the CP of 8lbs despite cutting out alcohol, healthy eating, calorie counting and increased activity with return to work/things opening up. This is just adding insult to injury as I was losing weight before the CP in a bid to help us conceive and I feel like this is just going to add to our problems as I am already overweight.
Really struggling with everything to be honest, especially as i've had 3 good friends announce pregnancies in the last 6 months and another two give birth. I am so happy for them but feel so desperate.
Anyway...
Should I be giving up hope this month? Anyone else have any advice or similar experiences?
