August TTC

Hi Ladies

Thought I would create a channel for July / August TTC for those who didn't receive their BFP's this time around

I'm on CD2 now after sadly AF arriving. TTC no1 at 32 and this will be Cycle 4

I'm currently isolating with Covid after having 1 jab (which really messed with cycle 2 and 3) expecting DH to test positive v soon!

So sorry if I miss anyone or if you haven't got your AF yet or had a BFP ! But wanted to capture a few people as I've found these channels super helpful!

@DeviousImp17 oh my word I'm 9DPO and due sat/Sunday too! I also have extremely sore boobs, very hungry and very tired, but also getting waves of cramping which i always get around this stage and think it's a sure sign AF is on her way 😭 what number cycle is this for you? Sending positive vibes and baby dust ✨

YummyMummyXoX · 03/08/2021 07:10

Congratulations @FinnsMammy ! So pleased for you.
&@Laurajp90 can soo see the 2nd line good luck and keep us posted X

WantStickyBean · 03/08/2021 07:44

Bloody great. Got my toddler's D&V bug, so spent the night in and out of the bathroom.

Even if there was something implanting late I'm sure I've now killed it off! And my temps are all screwed up so I've no idea if it's dropping before tomorrow's AF or not.

mummytoolive · 03/08/2021 09:52

@Capricorn8990 how you getting on I'm just trying to catch up.
Are we going to be cycle buddies again? What cycle day are you xxx

Capricorn8990 · 03/08/2021 10:12

@mummytoolive heya hun, I got my period 😞 it lasted 4 days which is quite short! I'm usually 5-6 days. I'm cycle day 5 now. What about you hun? Xx

Celina94 · 03/08/2021 10:27

My AF Lasted 2.5 days like my last AF which is super weird. AFs have become so much shorter since taking out the copper coil! On CD 6 now ... just waiting for ovulation again.... drive has been super high since period stopped and to DH pleasure have DTD everyday since aha. So excited for this month I'm feeling positive- congrats to all the girls with BTPs this month so happy for you!!! And baby dust for the rest of us!!! xx

mummytoolive · 03/08/2021 10:48

@Capricorn8990 I started bleeding the day after my period was due so I'm cycle day 4 now, still bleeding but v.v light now so I imagine it will tailor off today or tomorrow.
I've ordered some Myo inositol but I'm scared to actually take it and I'm going to speak to the GP about my progesterone.
Have they completed all your bloods now? What was the verdict?
🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 for us this month hun xxx

LadyoftheWoods · 03/08/2021 11:00

Ooh can I join? I'm currently on my period (cd3) but this will be the first proper month of ttc. I'm really excited, but also super nervous! I'm guessing the excitement will wear off after a couple of months!

Capricorn8990 · 03/08/2021 11:57

@mummytoolive 😔 do you think it was a chemical pregnancy? We are just one day difference then! What does that do hun? I've not heard of it. Definitely ask for some bloods. Mine came back normal which is good news but I'm going to have a telephone call on 10th august to ask for some more tests to be done as on the NICE guidelines for endometriosis it says you're entitled to have them.

My partner has tested positive for covid so we're both self isolating and I'm staying in a separate room! So hopefully we can DTD soon 🤣.

🤞🏼 for us definitely xx

Capricorn8990 · 03/08/2021 11:57

@Celina94 are you sure it was definitely a period and not implantation bleeding perhaps? I've read that some women think they've got their period but it was actually IB. Xx

Capricorn8990 · 03/08/2021 11:58

@LadyoftheWoods welcome! It does get quite emotional and can be stressful but try not to symptom spot as PMS and pregnancy symptoms are very similar xx

Celina94 · 03/08/2021 12:07

@Capricorn8990 It's the second month in a row that I've had such a short AF, which I can only point to having the copper coil out 3 months ago :(. I took quite a few tests even the day after bleeding stopped and still BFN so yeah pretty sure it's not my month sadly! It can be so confusing sometimes!

MrsSG90 · 03/08/2021 12:28

Good luck for this month ladies 🤞 🍀 xx

DeviousImp17 · 03/08/2021 12:29

Woke up feeling a bit more like AF is coming. Still tired with sore boobs and a mild nausea. BFN though. If AF comes, this is the first time I’ve had such PMS symptoms. And I’ll be annoyed with my body!

chloehunt · 03/08/2021 12:30

Hey everyone I'm also ttc

LeeTTCRainbow · 03/08/2021 12:31

Congratulations to all the BFP's keeps the hope going and sorry for anyone who wasn't there time, I'm joining you there.

In two days is my due date for first pregnancy and not going to lie I'm struggling luckily have all the wedding stuff to make mind off but i know when day comes I am going to feel sad as much as i put a brave face on, here's hoping August is our month to conceive our rainbow, been a whole year trying next week, we need this.

Good luck everyone. xxxx

JLH88 · 03/08/2021 12:35

Congratulations to all BFP's.

I'm new this month, TTC baby no 2.
I think I am around 3DPO, so just on the wait to test which is so hard.

Capricorn8990 · 03/08/2021 12:36

@Celina94 ahh yes it may still be some hormones floating around! Nothing is straightforward is it xx

LeeTTCRainbow · 03/08/2021 12:55

Thank you girls for all your well wishes, i am doing better, got discharged last week and was resting for few days, but feeling much better, looking forward to a fresh start after our wedding in 4 weeekkks how has that happened seems to of snuck up on me.

Good luck and sending baby dust to all xxxxxx

mallowmoon93 · 03/08/2021 13:30

@DeviousImp17 how many DPO are you?

mallowmoon93 · 03/08/2021 13:33

I planned not to test and wait for AF this month but I failed 🙈😂 gave in yesterday and let's be honest. I'm just gonna keep testing coz im getting serious line eyes with these tests! I've never used them before so ordered some more ICs so I can hopefully get an answer. I usually take the stance, expect the worst and the best will be a nice surprise, but after those tests it's got me all messed up! X

cossmoss · 03/08/2021 13:51

Hiya, have posted separately about cervical ectropion before - usually get spotting post ovulation but am in my fertile week and am bleeding during/after sex. Do you think this will effect sperm getting to the right place?! Argh.

4th month trying after an ectopic earlier this year and overthinking everything!

cossmoss · 03/08/2021 13:53

Have also started having acupuncture this month. The practitioner has said first need to look at getting cycles feeling normal again and they might not have fully settled post ectopic.

FinnsMammy · 03/08/2021 14:34

@LeeTTCRainbow sorry to hear that you have been trying for a year since your loss! It can’t be easy! Fingers crossed for you that you get your sticky bean soon ! Xx

mummytoolive · 03/08/2021 14:35

@Capricorn8990 yes I had a solid pink line on 5 tests and then started bleeding and a negative test the second day of bleeding so definitely a chemical. I've passed a lot of tissue aswell (sorry tmi)
It's supposed to encourage ovulation and egg quality.
So good that your bloods are normal but yes definitely get as much tested as you can.
We should ovulate around a similar time again 🤞🏽
Hope your partner is well soon for DTD xx
