Lucky October? 🍀

[Danani]

It seems AF is coming to get me end of this week (Fri), so instead of feeling sorry for myself I’m trying to look forward to October and getting to try again! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Anyone else with me?

@Danani thank you 😘 I hope we all have our happy ever after ladies xx

@primrosee
I'm 35, been trying for 6months and have been referred to a consultant, I have a blood test to see if I ovulate on the 18th oct

He's given me 3months and I will then start medication, he doesn't want me to wait too long because of my age.

Not sure how long they will make you wait but I'd presume not aslong as others that are younger xx fingers crossed they get things looked into quicker for you x

Congratulations @lilkayjay, such a lovely strong line!! X

@lilkayjay wow amazing 😻 congratulations

I’m also hoping for a lucky October - came off the pill in July and no AF yet. I had some pink ish bleeding when I wiped yesterday, but nothing today. Not sure if I should make a GP appt as it’s been 3 months with no period, but I suppose I’m just being impatient because I want to see a positive.

@primrosee glad im not alone but yeah it's so rubbish isn't it! Im 30 and not getting any younger lol! Hope you get you static soon hun! Xx

@positiveovernegative thank you hun. Im 34 approaching 35 everyone there's hope for us all! xxx

October is looking like a great month with another BFP! Congratulations @lilkayjay ! I hope everything goes well for you 🤞🏽🤞🏽

@lilkayjay it’s looking good! Fingers crossed for you!

I’ve had some spotting today so i bet af is on the way.

@lilkayjay congratulations!

@Coco9910 yes that's exactly how I've been, thought I had all the symptoms first cycle only to be met with negative tests. Pretty sure OH just rolls his eyes when I mention a symptom now! I've had some cramping and sore breasts, I had those last month but I think they've started earlier this time. I had persistent nausea yesterday and on/off today so got my fingers crossed for tomorrow, although it's still early at 11dpo

@lilkayjay

Sorry to barge in everyone I've had 2 chemicals before never got past 15dpo and I'm hoping this is a good sign! I'm 15dpo today af still not due for 2-3 more days I haven't seen anyone having a chemical after the line gets darker than the control but I'm still so anxious

Congratulations that's a lovely strong positive

Congratulations to more positives! What a lucky month this is turning out to be for some!

According to my app. i am 7dpo. But if going off ewcm, I would be about 3dpo. Twiddles thumbs. Must not test. Will probably still test too early.

Hi everyone. Hope you don’t mind me jumping on this thread with you all. I recognise a couple of names here from a thread last month so hoping this is our cycle!
First month doing OPKs this month and think I got my peak a couple of days ago, although the ratio was never above 1. It is worth saying though that I drink A LOT of water throughout the day (about 4 litres) and can’t not and can never do a 4 hour hold. 3 is an absolute push during the day for me.
Looking at my tests do you guys think this is a proper surge and I’ve ovulated? I am usually very regular 29/30 days. Thanks so much.

Hi @misstickhill 👋
Based on your tests, I’d say that CD14 was your highest reading so it was probably your peak! If you drink a lot of water as you say, that would probably be why it never got above 1. I personally wouldn’t worry tbf. I was doing first morning wee or trying to hold it and my peak was only 1.14, so not really that much higher than your highest one. Your CM is looking good AND you’ve DTD’d plenty so I’d say you’re covered!
Good luck 🍀

I've had a mare today. Had a proper actual peak on my ovulation tests today (darker than the other day) so I'm not ovulating like I thought 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ I cannot dtd anymore!!! I'm also concerned because my lp is getting shorter and shorter as the days go by.

@Cruz86 I've had the same! O was predicted Friday and sticks getting darker so seemed on track... but temps made it move to tomorrow, and opk Def peak today, plus I am feeling really
crampy so all seems to add up. We are so tired we couldn't even manage it last night and it's going to take a lot of effort to summon the energy tonight! Annoying as I was feeling quite confident last week but now I think we have mistimed it completely. Never mind! Onwards and upwards.

Feel so ill tonight 🤮 super nauseous and feel like I'm going to pass out. Anyone had this symptom at 9dpo?

Yes! You have just said exactly how I feel @Effram. Confident last week, not so much now. What cd are you on and when is AF due?

Keeping everything crossed for you, @Danani - sounds like you’ve done as much as you can! 🤞🏻

And @Cruz86 you must be exhausted 😴 I think OPKs are incredibly useful but can also make everything more confusing. I find when I do ovulate late, it shifts my period so my luteal phase is always about the same length (only 11 days) so maybe your AF will be later?

I really am @PleaseSendNoodles! We've had sex 6 times in the past 8 days. And now we've got to continue for another couple 😂 I'm glad I started testing though because otherwise I would've missed my most fertile time!

@Mummytobe93 do you take the aspirin daily then and what g is that? I might give it a go!

And good to know about the lp too, I really hope that's the case!

Hello ladies, is there room for another one please?

I've been reading this thread and found quite a few BFPs. Wishing you all stickies with happy and healthy pregnancies!

I have no idea what's going on with my cycle. My cycles are 28 days dead on every month and I'm on CD 23, AF due on Friday. No idea when I ovulated this month - I have so far had 9 days of positive OKS with the darkest lines over two days. I think my peak was 6th October, meaning I'm 3 DPO. We've DTD five times in the last week to cover all bases (no more for me now, thank you).

Anyone else around 3 DPO? The TWW is always so long when you're TTC. So much waiting and trying not to test!

Best of luck to everyone here.

Thanks lovey @PleaseSendNoodles! I really hope so! 🍀🍀🍀🤞🏻

Welcome @Squiff70! There’s always room for one more! :)

Hope you have a lucky lucky month! A few people on here already are 3-4 DPO, you’re in good company!
