Hi I'm Zoe,

24 years old, mum to two girls and currently on CD1 (period started today boo :( ) on our 10th month of trying to conceive baby number three. Miscarriage in May at 6 weeks.

Been a tough old journey, and actually a pretty lonely one too as no one knows we're trying again!

Looking for some wonderful buddies who are on a similar journey. 😊

It seems to for us definitely!!

Haha I know what you mean, I wasn't the instigator pre TTC, he must love it when we want another baby 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you lovely, we managed to DTD in between two full of cold children last night which I was very surprised by! Usually one wakes up 🤣

@Sunrise321

That tends to be what ruins it for us, timing DTD with ovulation.. Not in the sense of knowing I'm ovulating, but it seems every time I've ovulated somethings happened 🤣

Someone's been poorly, or the girls have been poor sleeping.

The joys of TTC!

@zoeoliviax I got my static smiley on Friday, but I am not sure how long after this you ovulate so I could be 2dpo or not ovulate until today x

zoeoliviax · 05/12/2021 09:37

@Hopefullywaiting01234 I'm sure they say 12-36hrs after. Eee cycle twins!!

I'm so anxious already

@zoeoliviax I DTD wed, fri, last night and will do it tonight also, miss Monday and then Tuesday. I was trying to follow the sperm meets egg plan but previously I had been getting 5/6 days of flashing smileys before static but think cycle I only got 1 flashing then static. I am not holding out much hope this is cycle 11 and I just can’t see it now but need to be in it to win it so to speak xx

Hopefullywaiting01234 · 05/12/2021 09:57

@zoeoliviax this cycle

@Hopefullywaiting01234 Oo you've done well there! I'm a little deflated, we just didn't manage it much for one reason or another. Ended up with 4 days before and day before ovulation, and the day after!!

@Sunrise321 Ooo not long to go now for you then, do you test at a particular time? Or wait for AF first?

I feel super anxious and negative this month. I don't know why, I suppose it's so close to Christmas!!

@Sunrise321 always get my first responses from Amazon. No shop near me sells them 😊

This TWW is killing me already lol!
I'm currently 5ish DPO. My boobs are really sore, not even to touch all the time, and I've had a nose bleed every morning for the past three days,
Both of which are very unusual for me.

I know it's too early for PG symptoms but I wonder what it's all about!

I got my first af after coming off the pill. Only a 23 day cycle but I'm normally only around 26 ish days so not bad going for the first one.
Still debating whether to get ovulation sticks this month or not.
Looking forward to actually trying although the 2ww is going to kill me!!

@Sunrise321
Oh bless you lovely 😫 So sorry AF turned up!

In terms of blood clots, I've always had big ones, and when I say big I mean BIG, they used to terrify me. I had lots of tests at the doctors and they said it's just what my blood seems to do - Overly clot to stop and I didn't need to worry.

If your concerned you could always give the doc a ring?

A bit of a strange one actually.
I had nosebleeds daily 2-5 DPO, nausea when eating, really sore boobs.

I'm sure they are in my head though lol

Hello!

Is it too late to join this thread? I created my own today but then I saw this one already going Smile

I’m ttc #1, cycle 1, 30 yo. I got my 1st flashing smiley this morning on the CB test.

Thought it would be nice to hear from other ladies in a similar position.

I’m a little confused what CD this is for me as I took period delay tablets this month. I have another full thread on this so won’t rewrite it here but if anyone can help me on that thread (title: my first ever flashing smiley please help) I’d be grateful as I’m confused about it. This may be CD10 for me or may be CD5 Confused

I’m swaying towards CD10 due to the flashing smiley but as I’ve got that today I will just continue to test and see what happens. Only cycle 1 so I don’t want to get my hopes up anyway as I know it could take a while yet.
