Hi Everyone,

I thought I’d start a new thread for February following the January one.

About to start month 4 of TTC after a MC last month.

The months seem so long with a TWW thrown in but then I also can’t believe I’m about to start cycle 4! (I know that isn’t a long time for some of us and that makes me feel sad, TTC is so unfair at times)

Anyway, feel free to join if you’d like to get through February together! X

@ShinyEyes33

I read up on the upside down. Leg position today. It's a myth! But apparently having your hips elevated during sex can help! So that's tonight's mission 🙈😂

Hi all.

What's your thoughts on this opk. Done today. Came up dark right away. Never had that before usually always lighter and takes a few minutes.

Last period 15th Jan. Cycles been longer since had very early miscarriage in October.

Felt like ovulation due to tender boobs, veiny and more CM.

We've had sex last 5 days and he's back home again from work on Wednesday so I'm hoping we have timed it well.

The month of valentines, pancakes and lot’s of BFP’s! 🤞🏻❤️

thank you for this - it’s reassuring to know there’s a chance for this month :)

Cookiedough123 · 31/01/2022 19:06

@Cmac1890 looks good. My test was like that last Thurs around 7pm and I had my peak on Friday around 1pm. Fingers crossed for you

Troublesometooth · 31/01/2022 19:08

Pancake day is actually in March this year!

Although feel free to eat as many as you like during February to prepare for it!

Snowwhite2020 · 31/01/2022 19:23

Sorry for your loss @toddlertired xx

mightbeyesmightbeno · 31/01/2022 19:42

@toddlertired sorry hear this. I've had 2 chemicals out of 3 months TTC this time round. This month is month 4. Both times it's just meant a later period for me but I've still had the same gap then between start of period and next ovulation. Hopefully no more chemicals for us!

@ladybuggoldfinch I'm sorry you've been poorly too. It's so awful isn't it. I wish I was one of the people that didn't get symptoms!! I feel awful and can't even imagine trying to dtd right now!! Sad

DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 20:37

Can someone confirm that I’m not seeing things? I know it is a very clear line but I am literally in shock. I cannot believe it!!!! I feel like this is someone else’s test. Omg

I have a 15 day luteal phase, so in theory an FRER will work for me from 11dpo. But someone who has a 12 day luteal phase will be able to get a result on a FRER from 8dpo.

This is so unfair 😂 Does it mean I’m likely to have late implantation?

Really? So if you're having a short luteal phase you will also implant earlier? How is that possible, I thought implantation doesn't have anything to do with your luteal phase?
DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 20:44

Thanks for confirming @Decaffe. My rational brain knows this but it feels like this isn’t my test, I can’t explain it.

mightbeyesmightbeno · 31/01/2022 20:48

Blimey @DancinOnTheCeiling ... that's an amazing line!

Decaffe · 31/01/2022 20:48

And you have had such a terrible time with your teeth and dicky tummy @DancinOnTheCeiling! I’m so pleased for you, what made you test today, how many DPO are you, what dates did you DTD, we need all the answers!!

Decaffe · 31/01/2022 20:48

No @Bundaberg84 I don’t know if that’s the case, just wondering why, if you have a longer luteal phase, you have to wait longer to test with an FRER?

mightbeyesmightbeno · 31/01/2022 20:49

@Decaffe yes agree! Give ALL the details @DancinOnTheCeiling ! Have you told. DH yet?

Worryant · 31/01/2022 20:51

@DancinOnTheCeiling ah amazing! Congrats! Xx

Decaffe · 31/01/2022 20:52

With that line it might be… 👯‍♂️?!

mightbeyesmightbeno · 31/01/2022 20:52

@Decaffe yes ...! 👀👀👀 it might be!!

ladybuggoldfinch · 31/01/2022 20:57

@DancinOnTheCeiling congratulations xx

jazmine38 · 31/01/2022 20:58

Wow! @DancinOnTheCeiling congrats!!🥳❤️

arianasky · 31/01/2022 21:00

@DancinOnTheCeiling oh my, congratulations! That's such an amazing strong line! ❤️

DancinOnTheCeiling · 31/01/2022 21:01

Omg I’m in shock!!! Thanks so much for the congratulations 😍😍. Okay so details: first of all we used the @Purple29 method so THANK you purple!!!!! We did it exactly as you said (except the one after ovulation, we were knackered). Need to go and find my notes and will update in a minute... as for DH, he’s at work and back at 10pm and cannot wait to tell him. Be back with details in a sec
