CD12, anyone else hoping November is their month

[Glago2017]

Hi, I am on CD12 and really hoping Novemeber is my month. Anyone care to join me on this ttc journey? Its nice to talk to people who are in the same situation.

This will be mine and my husbands second child (DH is nearly 4) my periods have been really irregular so started using OPK's for the first time this month. Not had my peak yet but hopefully soon. 🤞

@Sweetbabydust1989 yeah this is the first time I've paid too much attention to it tbf I don't get any ovulation cramps so who knows. We have DTD now on day 5,6,10,11&12 and hoping to get day 14,16&18 in too - this TTCing is exhausting lol

Hi everyone I'd like to join if I can!🤞
@Glago2017 I'm also 1dpo today. Had a surprise peak at Friday (didn't expect before Sunday), managed to sneak a DTD in on Friday and also today. And prior to that on Tuesday, I hope Iwe covered our bases 🙈

@Sweetbabydust1989 I had an ectopic in July as well. Can't imagine going through it twice! You're strong! I hope it's your lucky month now!

Good luck to all of you!!🎉

@Bundaberg84 oh it was awful I had to wait until October to ttc again as I had a lap & dye with hysterscopy done came back totally clear even both my tubes had a good fill and spill couldn't believe it. I am hoping the jet wash of my tubes etc has done the trick not sure I could handle a third ectopic this year I am just looking positive xx

Also 1dpo! Good luck everyone

@Sweetbabydust1989 I can't imagine! They had to remove my right tube, so a second ectopic would probably result in no tubes left, so I really hope that doesn't happen :)

@mamakitz yay another cycle buddy!

@Glago2017 I feel like I've been waiting forever. Something serious came up in August, and since then I'm waiting to be cleared by my nephrologist and the cardiologist in order to go on with my ivf. It's not a lot, it's just that I was already waiting beforehand, doing fertility tests, and finding clinics, and actually making the decision to start ivf.

@Bundaberg84 I hope you don't have another one lovely mine traumatised me never felt fear like it I was walking round with a ticking time bomb twice.. i am feeling rough today cramps and dry mouth it kinda feels like my period is coming dull ache I had the worst stabbing pains last night on my right side I think I am 1dpo now if I go by my pee stick positive but who actually really knows this 2WW will kill me xx

@isabelherna sounds like u have had a rough time. Hopefully not to much longer for you. 🤞

Can I ask a question to anyone who uses/ has used OPK's? I had EWCM on Wednesday and got my peak on Friday. As this is my first month using them should I continue to use them daily to see how my body works or take it as thats me ovulated and not much point continuing? X

Hey guys, can I join in? I'm 4/5DPO and in the depths of 2WW anxiety, boredom and clock watching. Trying to hold off testing until next Monday.

I had my first pregnancy in Jan 2020, and misscarried in Feb 2020. My partner and I are actively going TTC in the New Year. But we slipped up this month and DTD unprotected a couple of days before ovulation.

Would love to hear if anyone else is in the same boat and has symptoms? I'm getting frequent dizzy spells, tiredness and cramps on my left side.. but still early days.

@rachipops I'm 3 dpo no symptoms and trying not to think about it to much (easier said than done) hope you get good news month, even if its a little earlier than expected 🙈

@Glago2017 I think if you've had your peak, there's no point in continuing to test as it won't show anything. So that means you're in the 2WW now!

@Glago2017 are you using the strip tests? I am using the cb advanced but confirming on the strips so I got my Cb static face today so I will stop using that now (the reader won't work for 48 hours now anyway) I have confirmed the surge I think on my strip test but will probably do another tomorrow to make sure and then stop...no idea if that's right though!!

@tryingforbabyh yes I am using strip tests, this is my first month. I havent tested today so just taking it as thats me ovulated and now in my tww. The longest 2 weeks ever!!

Getting pain in my groin same place I has my last 2 ectopics really scared only on cd15 had positive opk cd12 is it all in my head 😭 scared to have a third ectopic this 2ww is killing me now xx

@Glago2017 I think that's right! Yday my app said 1.17 high and today it's 0.4 low and has updated yday to "peak". Now for the longest 14 days...🙈

Tww is the longest! 🤣 it's so hard not to symptom spot but I am trying not to read to much into anything (I say as I Google search or search for threads on here) 🤣

@Bundaberg84 how are you now? Any symptoms? When are you planning on testing? I might test on Monday/Tuesday (if I can last that long)!

@Glago2017 oh I am the same 😂 I don't feel anything now cramps have gone and I feel back to normal not sure if that's a good or bad sign I am going to say 3 DPO well at least I think so as I got a positive opk on Saturday so counting Sunday as ovulation day xx

@Glago2017 Thank you and good luck in the 2ww!

How is everyone feeling today?

@Glago2017 I am now on CD16 and no sign of ovulation yet 😞 I'm using the clearblue smiley tests and also just OPK strips. I'm doing them multiple times a day wondering if there's a best time! How is everyone else?

@ok92 this was my first month doing OPK's. I tested around 3pm everyday and when I saw an increase I started doing twice a day (10:30am and 3pm) I have no idea if this is right. 💁‍♀️ i ovulated on CD17 using the strip tests and DTD on CD11, CD13 CD15 and CD17. After that I we were tired so didn't do anymore altho wish I had. Who knows it's now a waiting game.
Hopefully u ovulate soon.

Not feeling good today. I miss calculated my cycle. I ovulate on CD25 and I'm only on CD22 at the moment, so I'm not even in the 2ww yet! I was preparing to test on Monday.

We DTD this morning, so still hopeful to catch this cycle but just fed up with waiting.

I ordered an Indian and treating myself to an early night.

How is everyone else?

@rachipops at least u haven't missed it. R u using opks to track? Y did u think u had ovulated?
Indian and early night sounds bliss. Enjoy.

@galgo2017 ahh it's a long story. But your right. Still in the game.

Pretty much, I had been tracking at the start of the year just to learn a bit more about my cycle, BBT and OTKs. But the red day and green day thing took out the spark for our six life. So I decided to stop and try the pill again. But the pill made me so ill I stopped that after a couple of weeks too. At this point we were still not having sex.... for no other reason than we were just in a rut and I just never brought it up again to my partner.

A couple of weekends ago we chatted about starting a family and decided the new year. The next morning, for the first time in about 6 months he initiated and we DTD (unprotected). So I hadn't been tracking!

But from that day onwards I started the Premom LH test strips again, and they were getting fainter everyday.. which made me think I had just missed my ovulation.

Over the last couple of days I've been looking back at my charts from the start of the year and figured it out. I religiously ovulated on CD25.

We DTD yesterday, so still in the game. Its just this wait is killing me.

But even with all the above.. who knows? Gods plan etc. Maybe I did ovulate. Hopefully will get a positive LH tomorrow or Friday.

Out back story is that we had a surprise pregnancy in Jan 2020 but I miscarried in Feb 2020. We weren't ready back then, but it still obviously hurt. Fast forward to today, we have our own home and a gorgeous puppy.

Also.. Galgo? Do you have have a gorgeous sighthound? 😍 I have a whippet pup!

Sorry.. so longgg and TMI haha
