TTC CYCLE 7 who’s with me???

[JB14C]

Hey everyone!!

Ttc cycle 7 … feeling like it’s never going to happen,

This month, I’ve had my COVID vaccine and been quite stressed, so already started my month in a negative note.

I took a test foolishly about an hr ago after an hr hold - negative obviously… I think I’m about 10dpo I think I’m due on Tuesday? My lp is always 16 days long.

I’ve had loads of symptoms this month

Incredibly tired
Emotional
Hungry - but ONLY for junk
Lots of cm
Slight and I mean slight cramps. ( very mild)
Armpit is hurting — sore boobs

Am I out for this month? Should I have seen something on today’s test??

Heyyy 🥰 I can see something on the second pic??

I can't offer any wisdom I'm afraid but just wanted to say hello and send baby dust your way ✨

We are cycle sisters! I am TTC #1, cycle 7 and am also due AF on Tuesday (yay).

Not even a hint of success for me this cycle, but our time will come! x

Hey @xoJellyBean I don’t think there was in the end did a frer this morning sooooo negative, period should arrive in approx 5 days x

Hey @FieldView nice to speak to you! Wow yes we are the exact same. How are you finding it? I honestly feel this has been a really tough month for me. I have tracked this month , I haven’t for the last two just give to me a bit of a break, but this month is hard. Have you tested? X

Hey,
we're TTC #1 as well, 7th cycle! 😬
I'm 8dpo today, expecting AF on Thursday.

I've had cramping yesterday and feel totally fine today. I've had quite a lot of cm for a few days and now it's kinda dried up. Other than that, no symptoms really ... i'm sooo anxious to get pregnant!!

When are you planning on testing? I don't have any tests at home so I'll probably just wait until next week and see how it goes.

Hey girls, I’m cycle 7 TTC no.1. AF dye on Monday. Took a rest yesterday at 13dpo and BFN so looks like I’m out this month and 7 is not my lucky number! Feels like we are in for the long haul now after 7 months doesn’t it?? Thought this was going to be easy!

@lilrosemarie hey, nice to hear from you!! I hope you are doing well. I’m not sure how many dpo I am I just believe I’m due on between Monday-Wednesday.

I took a frer and it was a negative as you could get:( I’m gutted I think I’m out this month.

How are you coping with ttc xx

@Hopefulhedgehog hey, yeah I’m struggling this month. When I started trying, I was so naive I thought i would be pregnant within 3 months max. Now I’m on 7, it feels like a life time. I’ve really struggled this month!!!

How do you find ways to cope, I find it consumes me.

Xx

It's the worst honestly!
We're both 28 and I really thought it would happen relatively quickly! No one prepared me for this 😆😬 They always said you have sex once and you can get pregnant ... well I guess I can have sex every day and still not get pregnant. 🙄🤭

Well I believe we may have missed ovulation a couple months because I thought it happened later than it really does, but still. It's been so long now 😢 and I'm really worried we will never have a baby. :(

I get very sad and cry loads whenever I get my period. My husband is supportive and all but he also wants this baby a lot!! 🤭

This month I've been quite busy so haven't had much time to think about it until now. I'm 6 days away from AF probably so that's all I have left to get through ... if AF comes I don't know what I'll do :/

@lilrosemarie me too, I’ve had a couple months we’re it’s been a bit dodgy in terms of cycle and one month I was ill during the week ovulation week so barely dtd. But still since last year, we have had lots of unprotected sex yet nothing!

I just constantly worry, what if I’ve got something wrong with me, will I ever have children etc etc.

But on average, it does take between 6-12 months, sometimes it’s really hard to get that in your head,

I feel it consumes me!!! Do you track your ovulation? I’m sending you so much baby dust, I hope you get your positive soon.

Yes, me too I cry lots and sometimes he doesn’t understand why I get so upset:

My fiancé really wants a baby too so sometimes that makes the news that’s I’ve come on harder to deliver?

Yup! I’ve been super busy and it deffo helps but I still find a cheeky moment to have a stress or I just dream about it instead!!!! Hahah xxxx

I've been tracking ovulation for 2 months now. I have internet cheapies because I take to many tests to be able to afford clearblue tests. I got positives on cheapie tests too and we dtd around that time quite a bit. Last month no success 😬 we'll see about this month.

I've had months with so many symptoms that I was absolutely sure something was brewing, but then AF showed up and literally crushed me. 😔 Soooo I'm trying not to get my hopes up. All symptoms are probably just PMS so nothing is for sure until the tests say so. Even if AF is late, it doesn't mean anything. 🙄 Goood, so confusing and hard this ttc business. 😏 I never thought it would be so daunting.

@JB14C I was using the clearlblue OPK's for the first couple of months, but the last tester doesn't seem to be working - either it's broken, or I am!

Sorry to hear about your BFN today. I haven't tested at all during the 7 months, but I might do this cycle. If I do, I'll test tomorrow or Sunday but I'm a bit nervous. I think I'll be more disappointed with a BFN than I am when AF arrived!

I agree with what's been said though - I thought I'd be done in a few months - the fact it's been 7 really makes me feel that we'll be in it for the long run! x

Hey! And showed for me today :( how you guys getting on xx

I'm expecting AF on Thursday.
My boobs are very sore, but other than that, no symptoms. I was tempted to buy a few tests today, but I didn't in the end, I'll just wait it out. If AF doesn't show her face on Thursday, I'll get the test.

Hi ladies! 12DPO here and got a BFN today. No luck this cycle either. Long story short: got BFP in April after 9 cycles TTC but MMC in May. I let got the first cycle after the miscarriage (got my vaccine too) and this was the first cycle trying after the MMC. I had hope as I was told in the hospital that it would be easier to get pregnant after the miscarriage, but I am starting to loose hope that it will ever happen.

@lilrosemarie sending baby dust xx I’m gutted today x x

@Lostintranslatio hey! I’m so sorry to hear that, it’s a good couple months after though you are more fertile I think. Still hope for you.

It’s such a long process isn’t it, it’s mentally draining

@JB14C so sorry AF came. I think only us women understand how tough it is. My husband is very supportive and all, tries to be as uplifting as possible, but whenever I get AF I'm just inconsolable. 😢 I just keep asking myself when it'll be my time. Seriously, everyone around me is having babies ... even those who don't really try for one. 😆🤭

I'm hoping this is our month, but after 7 unsuccessful tries, I don't think it will be 😔😔😔

I'm right here with you ladies!! No AF yet (can't be far away as due today or tomorrow) but I got a BFN yesterday.

It's the first time I've tested but I was feeling hopeful!!

Could do with AF hurrying up so I can move on to cycle 8.

Hope everyone is doing ok 💖

@FieldView how many dpo are you? You can still get a bfp. Some women don't get a positive days after expected AF.

I did a test a few hours ago, couldn't help myself when DH brought a few cheapies home and a digital. I only took one and are saving the digital for when/if AF is late.

I'm attaching a pic. I don't know if I'm reaching or have a serious case of line eyes, but does anyone else see a vvvvvery faint second line? 😬😬😬🤞🏻

@lilrosemarie I can see a faint line indeed! Can't say if it is a positive result or just evaporation, I'm not that good at lines 😂, but definitely I can see sth there

@Lostintranslatio i know right. It's my first ever test where it's not just stark white so I'm doubting it obviously. 😆 So I'll just have to wait and see.

@lilrosemarie looks like it could be a line!! Fingers crossed!

I'm 13 or 14 DPO at the mo so
Time is running out for a BFP - I'm sure AF is around the corner! There's always next month 🙄
