TTC NOVEMBER 2021

[Lua2020]

Well… AF came and got me in a big way today so on to the next cycle anyone else TTC November 2021?

Hi @Cruzxo I’m not 100% sure as it looks like it only half way. I’d take another one two days after you took this on, how many dpo are you?

@Billymay that makes me want to grab a boots test also haha

@Cruzxo I think that looks positive! Try again tomorrow and see if it is any clearer ☺️

I'm due to test Saturday because I have a night out on Saturday night. It's a bit tricky because it is a special birthday for my brother in law and it is a surprise we were supposed to do last year and had to postpone for obvious reasons! Been looking forward to it for so long but don't want to drink if pregnant obviously! I'll only be 10DPO and didn't get my BFP until 11DPO with DD. But still going to test anyway!

Congratulations to all who have their bfps!! It makes me so happy to see them, keep them coming! ☺️ I’m not sure when I’ll be testing, but I think it’ll be around the end of the month. I’m trying to track ovulation with my clearblue fertility monitor but it’s starting to stress me out. I thought I had been seeing EWCM since Tuesday last week, but still not had my peak on my ovulation monitor. I saw lots of EWCM on Saturday evening, so I was sure I’d get a peak Sunday morning or this morning, and still no luck. Online it says you can get EWCM for around 4 days before ovulation, so it’s really confused me having seen it since it Tuesday last week and still not getting a positive ovulation result. Now I don’t know whether I have already ovulated and the monitor has missed it, or the monitor is broken, or maybe I haven’t ovulated :-( it hurts because I want this so badly, it’s all consuming!!

Guys.. is this a very early BFP on FRER? I know it's so hard to see on the pictures, but feels so clear in real life. I'm actually shaking, showed within the 3 minute time. 12DPO (or so I think). Line eyes please!

I've literally never got even a whisper of a line on these tests. I'll pop the inverted below too.

Sorry literally posting this everywhere because I was convienced I was out!

Inverted

@SantiagoSister I know:( I’m really hoping it will happen soon for us all. People say not to stress if only it was that easy!!

@Rachipops I can see a very faint line! Maybe test again tomorrow/Thurs? xx

@SantiagoSister aww sending you love, I really feel you on this! I’ve been tracking everything from way in advance ready to TTC this month and now I feel things are all over the place now that the time has come. I think we must just be really overthinking everything. I’m finding keeping busy and distracted is really helping me to stay sane, and just having regular sex to cover all bases. Hope you have a better day today! X

This was mine this morning? I’m still unsure tbh x

@SantiagoSister aw honey it won't be long and you'll know either way and then on to the next month. It so frustrating when your body decides to do complete opposite to what you get told it should though!

I'm feeling really weird today. I just feel different. Only 6DPO but have a bit of a nervous tummy, sore spots (I haven't got spots for years!), a bit nauseous, AF type cramping and last night we BD and my cervix felt really sensitive. Don't even know if that's a thing but it wasn't very comfortable! I really hope it's not my mind playing tricks on me!

What doesn't help is that I went to see a medium 2 weeks ago (sorry if you don't believe in all that) and my spirit guide was laughing at me worrying about falling pregnant. The only card that fell out of the pack was fertility and she said to not be worried at all. Which obviously is good to know....as long as it's not a load of crap! 😂 (she was extremely good at other stuff though so let's hope there's something in it! 🤞🏻)

@Cruzxo that looks like a positive to me! It looks similar to the first test I took when I had my first When is your period due?

@Natalie2304 sorry just catching up on this thread! I'm testing Friday for the same reason how many days before your period are you testing? Mine will be 5 days before so hope the sensitive tests can pick it up!

@MummyBear405 I'm testing Saturday which is CD26 and my cycles are usually 27 days. The longest they've been is 29 days so 3 days early at the most. Hoping for an accurate reading!

How long after ovulation is that for you?

@Cruzxo sorry your messaged hadn't appeared when I started writing so I missed it and only just seen it. That looks positive to me. Congratulations! When is AF due? Xx

Thank you @gvs97, @Essexnewbie and @Natalie2304, I appreciate your support on my little rant 🙈 I do feel better today, it’s frustrating when your body isn’t doing what you want it to but there’s still time for me to ovulate so I know I need to stop stressing lol have also been DTD every other day for the last week or so, so hoping that covers all bases like you say ❤️

That’s got to be a good sign at your Medium visit Natalie, how unusual for the fertility card to be the one to fall out of the pack whilst you’re TTC. I’d take that as a good sign definitely, and you feeling different is positive too! Not too long until you can test now 🤞🏼

@Rachipops I can definitely see something on your test! I would test again in a few days and also try a different brand test as well, the FRER’s are making me so nervous at the minute with all their indents 😩

@Cruzxo that looks like a positive! Congratulations!

@Natalie2304 I really believe in that, I had a reading in September as I’ve been trying for so long and she said I will have a healthy baby and that she getting the month of November the stork card flipped out the pack for me too! Aww I hope they’re both right for us both, mine has predicted all my pregnancies. Although unsuccessful

@WorriedD93 Im sorry that your previous pregnancies were unsuccessful ❤️
I think we're due to test around the same time so it will be very interesting to see the results!!

@Natalie2304 I know! I’m hopeful at the moment. I’ve got some symptoms, I’m guna test Saturday morning it’ll be 4 days prior to AF xxxx

@WorriedD93 ahh me too! Testing buddies! 😁 can't wait for Saturday morning even more now! Xx

Hey ladies,

So yesterday I was either on day 12 or 11 after ovulation and I felt some very mild pain in my ovary and a pit of pelvic region period symptoms.
Then before bed when I showered I sa I had white discharge with a little bit of very faint pink-brownish blood - but veeery faint.
Today it stopped, no more. Don't feel ovary pain anymore.
I still have the bitter taste in my mouth which started kind of a week ago, feeling tired, bloated and constipated.

My temperature hasn't dropped since ovulation, this morning it was 36,89.
The app says that my period should start on the 18th but that would mean a 28 days cycle and it never comes on time :))
Also I always get cystic acne the week before my period and my skin looks plump and glowing.
Still no nausea, but the bitter taste makes me feel a bit meh, I am feeling tired during the day but I'm also using progesterone vaginal capsules from the day of ovulation, as per doctor instructions, so maybe that makes me feel tired. No veins on boobs, though they have remained plump all month - I'm a B cup, I can notice any difference, they're not big :))

Do you guys think it might have been implantation bleeding?
Is it too early to test now? Should I wait until the weekend?
Going cray here.

Wow that all sounds super positive to me. If it is implantation bleeding (which sounds the same as I've had previously) you will need a few days for hormone levels to increase before testing. I was 5 days post cramping/ bleed before I got my BFP with 3 previous preganancies. Mine are never detected early even eith the best tests!

@Cmacq32

Hope you're right!
The thing that unsettles me is that I hd ovary pain yesterday. Why would implantation cause pain in the ovary?
I haven't felt that pulling tingling sensation in the middle of the tummy that I've read about online.
Also I have a retroverted uterus, or tilted, maybe you can't feel it as much?

Can implantation cramps really feel like that daft, mild, annoying period pain before AF kicks in?

It's so good you are in tune with your body.
The annoying part is, we are all different and our bodies respond differently to pregnancy/making babies so it's hard to guess what's going on.
The only reason I know is I've experienced it. I rember with all 3 I get a stuffy nose an sneeze alot right before my BFP. That's not 'normal' but it's me. So yes, this could all still be positive and your body 'doing its thing'. Your still in the game... When are you planning to test?
I'm going to test Saturday as I will be 13 day PO and never detected earlier with the other pregnancies.

Wishing you all the baby dust luck 😘

Oh wow @alexalexalex18, you have shown such restraint by not testing already with all those symptoms! I wouldn’t have been able to wait 🙈 as @Cmacq32 says, I wouldn’t read too much into other peoples symptoms online as every one is so individual. When I conceived last time, I didn’t have a single symptom, and I got my bfp at 9 DPO. Everyone is so unique so I wouldn’t worry about the pains you’re feeling being different to what you read about online. Good luck for when you both test!! ✨

@Cmacq32

Wait can I test 13 days post ovulation?
Today would be either 12 or 13 day PO.
Does implantation blood show up exactly on the day of implantation or a few days after? Maybe I can test today? I was planning for friday or saturday but I'm so anxious to wait. On the other hand I would be rushed by a negative.
What test should I use? First Response? I read that pink dye is more accurate. I'm very scared about digital ones, dunno why :))

All the baby dust for everyone
