@calimc83 same I'm praying this is our cycle 🤞🏻🌈 how you feeling today?

Tofu35 · 30/01/2022 10:47

@skl2021 I am being good, not testing until AF is due, so another long few days ahead! 😇

JuniperAndTonic · 30/01/2022 10:51

Morning everyone, how are you all? Didn’t have time to check in yesterday as had a busy day spending some quality time with the husband and getting some much needed fresh air! We had a good chat about everything and I’m feeling good - we’re both in the mindset of whatever will be will be, we can’t change it and it will all be okay whatever happens. Still not getting excited or getting our hopes up though, just to protect ourselves really. It’s sad that’s what happens after a miscarriage as it should be a happy time really Sad

How is everyone?? I’ve lost track of who is where in the TWW - please remind me! Is anyone close to testing?

@MO22 I think it really varies form person to person! I used them for the first time on my last cycle but I only had a flashing smiley for one day which drove me mad as I thought I wasn’t going to ovulate! Very stressful! I think they say to stop testing after 10 days - you could’ve missed the peak or your urine might not have been concentrated enough - I think it really varies. If I were you I’d just keep having sex every other day to make sure you’re covered in case you did miss your peak. Good luck!

Skl2021 · 30/01/2022 10:56

@Tofu35 very good! When is af due? 🤞 Xx

@JuniperAndTonic glad you had a lovely day it's just what is needed! I'm exactly the same in my head I'm not pregnant. Don't want to even think of that road yet. I'm scared of it all happening again. I think if I get to week 6 I might book a scan. It's such a horrible feeling when it should be a happy time! And I also have no symptoms which ain't helping xx

JuniperAndTonic · 30/01/2022 11:02

@Skl2021im thinking the same, I’m waiting to get past the 6 week mark before doing anything as that’s when I miscarried last time so psychologically that’s just makes sense to me. I had my midwife appointment booked and everything last time and it was horrible having to cancel it and thinking about it on the day it should have been. I’m definitely going to book anearly scan for when I’m about 8 weeks I think - I definitely can’t wait 2 months until the NHS 12 week one!!

JuniperAndTonic · 30/01/2022 11:03

Well done @Tofu35 for holding out! Hope the days go quickly for you!

Bridgey8 · 30/01/2022 11:08

@JuniperAndTonic glad you had a nice day. I'm just packing to come home 😭 - much easier to forget about things when here and stress less! Great mindset tho - we can't change anything so what will happen will. Fingers crossed all good tho! Xxx

Skl2021 · 30/01/2022 11:24

@JuniperAndTonic I had a scan last time at 8 weeks saw heartbeat and miscarried at 10 so I think I will be extra nervous around that point. Don't know if I will ever feel safe even with scans as I know it can go wrong after. I can't believe how difficult it is after miscarriage I never had any fears like this with my others. Something going wrong never crossed my mind and now it's all I'm thinking about! X

@Bridgey8 sounds like u had an amazing time tho! Fingers crossed for us all 🤞 xx

Hi @juniperandtonic I'm currently around 7DPO!
On CD29 which was my usual AF day pre MC, its weird that its still dragging on 😅 I just want to know if its worked this month!!

Anyone else around this point? Might hold off on testing until 12DPO if I can manage 🤔

JuniperAndTonic · 30/01/2022 13:34

@Skl2021 that’s what I’m worried about - and early scan will probably be reassuring for like a day and then I’ll be back to worrying if it’s all okay again. It really does mess with your head!

@Sparklesurprise29 not too much longer! It’s annoying that your miscarriage messed your cycles though! It’s is a good idea to wait if you can but if you’re anything like me I’m so impatient and just want to know 😂 as long as you remember if you test early and it’s negative it doesn’t mean it won’t be positive a few days later!

arianasky · 30/01/2022 13:37

@Sparklesurprise29 I'm 6dpo today, how are you feeling?

calimc83 · 30/01/2022 13:53

@Skl2021 @arianasky I'm ok! Been busy with a kids party this morning 😳...painful! How are u both doing? I'm definitely less nuts I've decided when I can keep busy 😆😆 x

calimc83 · 30/01/2022 13:55

@Sparklesurprise29 I think I'm around 5 DPO..can't seem to figure it out! Do u count ovulation day as the day u got your peak? I might test around 9/10 DPO that way I'll just write this month of if I don't get any hint of a line...have u any symptoms? X

arianasky · 30/01/2022 14:29

@calimc83 haha! Hope it went ok? Same I've been quite busy today so not fixating as much but still crazy haha! I think I'm the same as you 5dpo but counting as 6dpo as I count peak as O day but I've always done that and got positives at 8 and 10 dpo and that would mean I got a positive at 7dpo one time so god knows haha 😂

Sparklesurprise29 · 30/01/2022 14:36

@juniperandtonic @arianasky I haven't got many symptoms apart from slightly tender boobs and a bit of fatigue...thats true, its probably a good idea to know so it doesn't drive me crazy with the wait! its so hard isn't it😅 10 DPO takes me to Wednesday roughly 🥳 how are you both doing?

@calimc83 its weird because I got 2 peaks, one at CD21 2pm and CD22 6pm🤔 then CD23 it was negative again at 12 so thinking I maybe ovulated late CD22😅
Was ready to give up the opks then started getting loads of ewcm around CD19, did you test for a peak? X

Tofu35 · 30/01/2022 14:37

If I'm having a regular cycle (who knows what my body is thinking right now) I'll be testing Friday @Skl2021. Or maybe I'll snap and test on Wednesday 😂

arianasky · 30/01/2022 14:41

@Sparklesurprise29 🤞🏻🤞🏻 hoping you get your BFP 🙏🏻

arianasky · 30/01/2022 14:42

@Sparklesurprise29 I'm ok thank you, weirdly just had my second nose bleed in 2 days and I've never had a nose bleed in my life before so god knows

Skl2021 · 30/01/2022 15:54

@calimc83 I'm good thankyou. I didn't test today with frer so hoping thats a step. Trying not to think about it to much. Your another day closer to testing 🙌🤞 xx

@Tofu35 well it's not long now! Keep us updated if you do test early 🙊🤞 xx

@arianasky that's weird isn't it that u have never had them before! Maybe it's a good sign? 🙊 I have never had sinus problems and I had them this cycle! X

arianasky · 30/01/2022 16:28

@Skl2021 I know it is strange but who knows haha, sake ok stuffy but in the nights morning and then I'm ok then it's very strange!? Amazing you didn't test with a FRER today that must've took some will power 💕💕

Skl2021 · 30/01/2022 16:32

@arianasky sounds promising! I had stuff nose in the mornings aswell then it was gone 🙊 yes it took alot of willpower IV been doing them everyday! I have two left then that's definitely it! So will do them over the next week! 🤞 X

Hi everyone have been watching for a while: we had a MMC in December, found our at our 12 week scan, baby stopped growing around 7 weeks. Had an MVA week later and period returned early Jan.

TTC from this month and in fertile window but got norovirus last night so only managed to DTD twice and it's my peak today :-(

I'm seeing conflicting advice about how often you should DTD during your fertile window (mine is 5 days usually) does anyone know?

calimc83 · 30/01/2022 17:18

@Skl2021 well done on holding off!! 😆🙈 x

calimc83 · 30/01/2022 17:19

@Sparklesurprise29 Hey! Yeah got a peak last Monday..so not sure whether to count that as ov day or not? If I do then I'll be 6 DPO but have a feeling I'm more likely 5 😆🙈 x

calimc83 · 30/01/2022 17:21

@arianasky it's hard to know exactly then I guess when u ovulate..a BFP at 7 days would be early wouldn't it?! Unless u implanted quite early..🤷‍♀️...maybe day 5 or so?? Party was fine..have hidden the cake so hopefully they'll forget about it and I can eat it tomorrow 😆😆🐷 x
