Hello everyone ✨🎉

I’m starting a November thread after being unsuccessful this month, got some spotting so probably cycle day 1 for me today, with fertile window being in the first week of November.

Please join me if you’re as hopeful about fresh cycle as I am!

My main goal is to DTD more, we definitely didn’t make the most of it in October …
I’m therefore going to be 100% honest with DH that we need to get down to business this cycle.

PS. Hope you like the title 🙈😂😂

Xxxx

Morning ladies

Sorry I’ve been quiet yesterday, I’ve been cramping all afternoon, genuinely thought I’m going to wake up with AF today… My temps dropped slightly but still high - I don’t know what to think! I’m also still constipated, which usually doesn’t happen when I’ve got PMS cramps.

I’ve got a feeling that my body is not playing some cruel tricks with me🙄😪

Good luck to anyone testing today, I’ll try to wait and see if AF arrives in the next 2 days.

Baby dust to you all & have a lovely Sunday! ✨💕

Good luck @Bundaberg84 if you are testing today! @Nikkic2123 did your spotting turn into full AF? Hopefully not 🤞🏼

@Mummytobe93 I hope AF stays away! It’s this time in the cycle I start getting nervous 😩 AF is due around Wednesday I believe so naturally I will be reading into everything my body does from now on 😂

beckybabyx · 14/11/2021 10:11

@Squiff70 @BH1926 I know it’s still very early to get a positive, but starting to lose hope. Did another this morning (11dpo- easy@home) and another BFN … maybe I’m just moody/emotional because of this TWW! Xxx

Squiff70 · 14/11/2021 10:30

@beckybabyx I feel your pain. I caved and did a test this morning. BFN obviously but only 9DPO. I don't think we DTD at the right time this cycle (tiredness).

Peonies94 · 14/11/2021 11:44

@beckybabyx I’ve been moody/emotional also, but think that’s down to the pressure and the feeling of unknown, rather than it actually being linked to anything in particular! It’s just torture!
I’m 7 DPO today and feel no different than I have done the last 7 days, no changes for me, so I don’t think this month is for me!

Natalie2304 · 14/11/2021 12:06

@Mummytobe93 @Squiff70 @beckybabyx @BH1926 I'm sending you all lots of baby dust that AF stays away and you get your BFP's soon 🤞🏻

@Peonies94 don't know if find helps but with my first I didn't have any symptoms for quite a few weeks, well apart from when AF was due I had a breakout of a few really painful spots! But that was all. Good luck for the next week or so 🤞🏻

Capricorn8990 · 14/11/2021 12:18

@lemons44 I think I will ask for that. I'm really getting anxious about this pregnancy. I've never been pregnant before and just want the weeks to hurry up. I can't enjoy anything.

Thank you for sharing your experience with me. I will be making a doctors appointment ASAP. As my doctor is aware of TTC and the tablets I have been on.

I haven't heard of that app but will take a look. Thank you so much xx

Peonies94 · 14/11/2021 12:25

@Natalie2304 that’s good to know, only time will tell! I have 3 more days until I test, it cannot come quick enough! I don’t feel like this is the month, but you never know! I think thats mainly down to me being so unsure of when my O day actually was, but I do think I have covered most scenarios by trying to DTD every 2-3 days throughout the month!

BH1926 · 14/11/2021 13:10

@beckybabyx sorry it was a BFN this morning but fingers crossed it's just too early and you'll get your BFP this month.

@Natalie2304 thank you 🥰

I'm due to test tomorrow 14DPO still super moody today more so than normal before AF but could be all in my head 🤪

Peonies94 · 14/11/2021 14:02

Goodluck to anyone testing tomorrow! I’ll be joining on Wednesday but may cave by Tuesday!

Mummytobe93 · 14/11/2021 18:30

Thanks for all the good luck🌸

I don’t want to jinx anything but the weirdest thing has happened- my cramps just stopped. I had them until about 3 pm.. as far as I remember I NEVER experienced cramping so close to when I’m due without it resulting in my period showing.
I was symptom spotting before but I’m confident this is new!
It’s horrible cause it gave me a bit of hope but equally it made me scared to test - I feel like the disappointment will be even worse 🙈

If my temps don’t drop tomorrow morning I will test😬

Good luck to anyone else, I REALLY hope this week is going to bring some BFPs! Xxx

MindZGap · 14/11/2021 19:02

Spotting has turned to full blown AF for me so no need to test tomorrow 😔

Wishing all of you good luck, I really feel we're owed some BFPs on this thread.

Off to December thread I go...

lottieb92 · 14/11/2021 19:20

@MindZGap sorry lovely, sending strength and luck for the December BFP! Xx

WhiteLily86 · 14/11/2021 19:44

Good luck all for testing in the next few days. It feels like it is a while since a BFP on this thread!

I am now full blown psychotic! Taking up all my thoughts and over analysing every twinge or 'symptom'. Why do we do this to ourselves.

I might cave and test tomorrow (AF due Friday).

There was a question about IB - I will tell you my experience of mine for DS1. A week or 10 days before AF due, had one random day when wiping only got a reddish spot. Not enough to need a pad, but enough to notice and wonder what is going on. I had a really strong one and from then on 'knew' that I was pregnant. Other 'symptoms' included a cold / all blocked up before my BFP and feeling twinges - but more like butterflies but lower down, if that makes sense?

I tested 3 days early and got BFN with CB, and got really rather boozy that day/night (it was Xmas day!) and got my BFP 3 days later when AF was due,

We got pregnant first month trying with DS1. This time has taken near 3 years.

Digby86 · 14/11/2021 20:14

Think I’m imminently to be out ladies… af due tomorrow and I’m all about the cramps this evening 😭

Natalie2304 · 14/11/2021 20:20

@Peonies94 2-3 days is brilliant! Can't wait to see your results for this month!

Good luck to all testing tomorrow and I'm so sorry for the ladies who's AF has arrived today. So much baby dust for December babies for you ❤️

Peonies94 · 14/11/2021 20:53

@Natalie2304 yeah trying to keep at it, as I have no idea where I am with O, so just trying to atleast slightly cover all basis, instead of focusing around a specific few days!

@WhiteLily86 thanks for sharing your symptoms with your DS. I'm due to eat tomorrow as 14DPO- no spotting but have had twinges not like af cramping and I'm full of cold again.. just got rid of one the other week. Hopefully this cold is a good sign for tomorrow 🤞🏻 I've been extremely moody too last few days more than normal before af 🙈

Sorry to hear you've been ttc for almost 3 years. Hope you get your BFP soon ❤️

Hi everyone! I'm excited to share my update. 9 DPO, BFN. 10 DPO, BFN. 11 DPO, BFP!!!

I have a lot of complicated emotions right now. Im nervous about getting too excited too early. I tend to be a worst case scenario type person. I'm trying to feel the right level of guarded and the right level of celebratory.

In terms of symptoms, I had several that might have been related, might not have been. Slight nipple sensitivity, dry skin, and very light cramps that felt like my period for 2 days without resulting in AF.

I'll keep the room updated!

ohmybaby · 14/11/2021 22:05

Huge congratulations @crabcake31!!!
