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?

Hey @Squiff70! I haven't ovulated yet but very near to it (I hope) so shouldn't be too far behind you. Good luck, the TWW is so hard x

@Squiff70 I am somewhere around 3-7dpo i think. I don't use opks so I'm just going off an app really 🤦🏿‍♀️🤦🏿‍♀️ I'm due AF in just over a week so trying to not test until then 👀 x

@Cruz86 I think I'm CD19 ... My cycles are normally around 30 days, but I had a baby 11 months ago so I've only had 1 period since then so guess this is a longer cycle! I haven't actually checked when it says my period is due...

As someone else said, LP should stay consistent so mine is (or was) always 14 days from ovulation whenever that was, rather than the luteal phase shortening.

My husband has friends round for board games and drinks tonight so unsure he's going to be able to muster tonight ... he's going to have to try haha! I'll regret saying this but I just want to be in the TWW now!

11 months ago @Effram, wow you're brave! 😂 my (not so) little one is 4 now, wouldn't have been able to do it before now! You're only a couple of days ahead of me so hopefully we'll be getting some good news around the same time.

Haha! We have a 3 year old as well 👀 I like the small age gap, but also it means there is less pressure on, starting now as if it doesn't happen for a bit there are obviously pros to that too!

Fingers crossed for good news...!!

@BoyMum18 i'm with you on the nausea. Im 10dpo today but had constant nausea yesterday. Hopefully it's good news! Hope you're coping okay

Wow, fair play to you!! That's a good way to look at it though. Hopefully you'll only have to wait a couple of weeks until your bfp though :)

I'm losing hope with every month!
I feel like it won't happen without a specialist intervention now, as we dtd every other days for 7 months now!

Something must be up SURELY, there's no other explanation for it it seems 🤷‍♀️

@beckybabyx

Mines saying how tired he is 🙄 I said well tough the tests say it must be tonight 🤣🤣

Haha @beckybabyx that is exactly how our "foreplay" goes 🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂

I'm 6dpo today, and had a few days off mumsnet... came back to about 11 unread pages on this thread alone 🤣
AF due next weekend. She keeps tricking me and starting within 24 hours of my doing a test. Was 5 days late last month and still BFN followed by AF 🤦🏻‍♀️
Hoping there are no more games and no more nagging to BD 🙈 I'm lucky if I get 2x a month at the moment so trying super hard to time those right!

[quote DanielleNicola]@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[/quote]
@DanielleNicola hopefully they are positive signs! When are you planning to test or are you going to wait for AF? xx

@BoyMum18 yes i started to get the feeling sick at 8dpo again at 9dpo, 10dpo i got the sick feeling again 11dpo i felt sick, cramping, sore/itchy boobs got worse im currently at 12dpo and i was sick earlier, cramping still and got a darker line than yesterday on my pregnancy test these are 35 hours apart bottom test was yesterday top test today so yes it is possible fingers crossed for your BFP

@BoyMum18
🥳🥳 congrats wishing you a safe and healthy pregnancy x

This is a lucky 🍀 month x

Fingers and toes crossed for everyone xx

Hi @Squiff70 . Such a lovely thread this.

I’m 13 dpo today and actually patiently waiting to see if af makes an appearance on Wednesday…had a bit of browny stuff on my underware yesterday, no idea what that means. Otherwise not really feeling anything 🤷‍♀️ But I am very distracted with the horses at the moment which is a good thing!
Have a nice Monday all!

Ladies, I’m 9-11DPO today and took a test, not sure if I am imagining it but think I can see a line, what do you think?

Morning, another flashy smiley on CB today. Really hoping the static smiley is near because I don’t think we can DTD every day ‘just in case’ for like a week or so 😂.

Honestly, TTC is tiring!

@BoyMum18 congrats hun 🥳

Good luck for Wednesday @SammiStap!

@TTC081994 I'm not sure I can see a pink line. What colour is it in real life?

@Firsttimetrier the struggle is real 😂 I've had peak opks for the past 2 days now but started dtd on cd8. I'm on 18 now!!!

Morning🌞

I wish all the best of luck and lots of DTD to anyone who has still got their O ahead of them,

And for us in their TWW already, I wish us patience and BFP🍀xx

[quote lilkayjay]@BoyMum18 congrats hun 🥳 [/quote]
Aw I wish I was pregnant but no bfp for me. Think I was just tagged in someone's post who had got their positive. Thank you anyway ❤️

It is very faint, I can’t make out the colour, I think it’s in my head. This TWW is driving me crazy 😂.

Good morning sunshines 😊

Welcome to the new arrivals!

@Vwhite that looks brilliant!!! So so pleased for you hun! 🤞🏻

Hoping we get a lot more BFPs in here i. The coming weeks!!

@Firsttimetrier ahhhh sorry lovey, I know this can be super infuriating!! How many days of flashies now? Maybe look into getting those cheap strips off Amazon for next time (if you need them! You probably won’t by the sounds of it!!). It’s good you’re BD’ing to cover your bases! Remind me, how many days is usually your cycle and what CD is today? Hopefully you get your static tonight!!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Very excited to start getting updates from all of you at the end of the dreaded TWW! It feels like we have a lot of people at 8 DPO+! 🤞🏻🍀

@TTC081994, I can’t really tell if I see some kind of shadow or not. Give it a day or two before re-testing is my advice and if you can, get a sensitive test like FRER! Hopefully it is the beginning of a BFP! Have all my fingers crossed for you! 🤞🏻

@Cruz86 I’m very similar, we started every other day on CD5. What was we thinking 😂😂

@Danani had 2 days of flashies. My cycle is usually 29 days and I’m currently on CD14. My Flo app is predicting O as today, so might try and test tonight to see?

If AF arrives as predicted on the 26th, do you think testing on the 22nd is too early? Would be DPO11? My husband goes away for a stag the next day for 4 days and I don’t think I’ll be able to hold off testing until he comes back 😬

Morning ladies,

Looking for opinions? Still very new to taking my BBT. According to every app & ovulation calculator, I'm due to ovulate tomorrow but my OPKs are still giving me very faint lines.
Looking at my BBT chart, do yous reckon I'm due to ovulate?

I have such irregular periods that I've not been able to pinpoint ovulation & I'm currently awaiting results from blood tests to see what's going on with me 🙃
