So, this is our first month properly trying!

So this month my ‘estimated ovulation’ was today (cycle day 14)

From cycle day 9 I experienced EWCM until day 11, which then changed to Cloudy CM & Now appears to be getting thicker!

I cannot pinpoint ovulation, but on Monday I experienced cramps.
On the Saturday (cycle day 9) prior I had nausea and headaches which continued until cycle day 10.

I almost feel like I ovulated on Monday cycle day 11!
I just have that gut feeling, along with EWCM completely gone now!

So annoying not knowing!! So I’m going with 3DPO!

Anyone else??

@Beck3115

I did think about using opks but I didn’t bother in the end! I tend to know when ovulation is happening by the signs I have every month.

Fingers crossed x

@Hann91

Hey! Oooh it sounds promising though, when is AF due?

Yeah it’s very unusual for me but December appears to be a longer month, especially with ovulation estimated 1st December.
My cycles are 27 days a month, with luteal phase being 13 days. Xx

Hann91 · 24/11/2021 20:23

@Kates21 anytime between now and sat but usually I get back ache and a headache a few days before but nothing yet! I'm 10dpo today so even if af holds off until Sat I'll be happy with that, that will be a 12 day luteal phase-second month in a row.
I'm going to Manchester Xmas markets and staying over at the weekend...it supposed to be a booze fuelled girly weekend so id want to test before we go. I'm not sure whether to test tomorrow or Friday morning. Do you think tomorrow is too early? Xx

Kates21 · 24/11/2021 20:28

@Hann91
Ohhhh okay - still sounds promising though! I would try and wait as long as you could, try and hold out til Friday. If you get the urge to test then do, there’s no harm, just know that you aren’t out til AF arrives!
Although a booze filled weekend sounds great haha!

But go with you and your body, if you want to test then do it hun! No harm! Xx

Hi👋
I'm back again... due friday but I've started getting light brown /light redish discharge so its looking like I'm out already. Fed up of it now!

Kates21 · 24/11/2021 20:35

@whymewhyme
Hey!!

Oh love, fingers crossed!! Your not out til AF officially arrives so we can only hope! Xx

@Hann91 @Kates21 thank you for your help ladies. I have really sore boobs and I’m craving carbs so af is probably imminent though not due for 5 days.

Did a free could see something but think it’s just the indent x

Kates21 · 24/11/2021 22:16

@Beck3115

I can see the line, I’d wait a couple days a test again!
Indents are bloody horrible!! Also frers have been known in the past for this! Xx

OP posts:
Beck3115 · 24/11/2021 22:21

@Kates21 i know I’m really cautious of getting my hopes up for an indent. I’ll start with a cheapie tomorrow x

Kates21 · 24/11/2021 22:38

@Beck3115

I know how you feel! Mine was the same last month, I then had bloods but they detected hcg - so looking more chemical! Xx

OP posts:
Beck3115 · 24/11/2021 22:40

@Kates21 I feel like non of them are reliable at the moment with everyone saying these and clear blue are both terrible for evaps.

How did you get bloods done? X

Kates21 · 24/11/2021 22:44

@Beck3115

I know!! I actually dread testing!

I phoned my doctors and said I’d had a faint positive appear on a test and would like a blood test to confirm! X

OP posts:
Beck3115 · 25/11/2021 07:18

@Kates21 I didn’t think it would be that straight forward.

7dpo today and absolutely exhausted but I think that’s just from work. BFN on cheapie x

Kates21 · 25/11/2021 08:09

@Beck3115
Yeah my doctor was brilliant, she sorted it for me and I had the test a couple days later x

OP posts:
Hann91 · 25/11/2021 08:53

Morning ladies,

@Beck3115 I can definitely see a faint line! It might be too soon with a cheapie, try again in a couple of days with a early detection.

@whymewhyme any more spotting today? It could be implantation.

I caved and tested this morning too. Can you see a very faint line or do you think it's an evap line? I don't want to get my hopes up, my eyes are probably playing tricks on me. I'll get some more tests today and test again tomorrow.

@Hann91 I can definitely see that one!!! Looks so promising! Can you test with a different brand? X

I'm deffinently coming on, light red blood now, lower back ache and generally feel like crap!
Kates21 · 25/11/2021 15:06

@Hann91

I can deffo see a line, did it come up within the time frame? An evap appears after this time has occurred, an indent line won’t have colour! Xx

OP posts:
Hann91 · 25/11/2021 15:46

Yeah it came up within a few minutes. Could be an indent, I'm not sure if there's any colour to it. I've got some more tests so I'll test again tomorrow. Wish I'd waited until tomorrow like you said...I can't stop thinking about it and I really don't want to get my hopes up xx

Beck3115 · 25/11/2021 15:47

My cramps are getting worse too and my DP is doing my head in 😂😂 I was ready to throw him out a loving car on the school run because of how loud he was chewing his chewing gum this morning… so I have a sneaky feeling that AF is coming early.

It is our first month properly trying so I didn’t think that we would get lucky straight away.

@whymewhyme will you be trying again next cycle? X

Kates21 · 25/11/2021 16:59

@Hann91
Honestly I totally understand with testing early, the unknown is a horrible thing! Try and wait though, I know it’s easier said than done!

@Beck3115
I also understand with the annoying partners hahaha! We are just coming into our fertile window, so here we go again for our second month of TTC! 🤞🏼

OP posts:
Beck3115 · 26/11/2021 14:27

How’s everyone getting on today? Is anyone testing?

Did a CB 6 days early but bfn my cramps are worse today and boobs still hurt so I’m just waiting for af x

Kates21 · 26/11/2021 14:44

@Beck3115

Into our first day in our fertile window today.
We aren’t going crazy just as and when it happens you know!

Your not out til AF arrives xx

OP posts:
Hann91 · 26/11/2021 14:53

I did a cb today too...bfn! I'll test again on Sunday if af doesn't arrive tomorrow. I'm looking forward to lots of laughs and mulled wine with the girls tonight and tomorrow! This tww and the bfn isn't going to get me down.
Have either of you any plans for the weekend? Xx

Beck3115 · 26/11/2021 19:40

@Hann91 ahh it might be too early for the digital!

I am working early shifts all weekend 😭 spent the afternoon stripping wallpaper at my fellas house and it was such hard work.

My boobs are still killing and I have kept feeling like I’ve come on but it’s just white when I check. The cramps definitely feel like af though x
