Hoping For a BFP in April

[FreckledMouse]

Making a new thread from the March group ♥️

I'm on CD 1, Cycle 11 of TTC our first 👶🏼
Had a MC in February
Ectopic last July with right tube removal
I have endometriosis (and I suspect low progesterone)

Trying to stay positive and think fresh cycle, my body probably needed this after the MC and its a fresh start ✨

Baby dust ✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨

@Mrslight I count spotting day as cd1

How is everyone doing?

Feel like I've got the dreaded wait now to see if my period makes an appearance in April 😩 haven't been opk testing or anything like that, just going with the flow although we haven't dtd that much at all, did any ladies fall pregnant in the cycle were they dtd less than in other cycles?

@allthingssparkly I am finally about to ovulate 🙌🏼 I never know when to class the first DPO though from now. Tomorrow? Wednesday???

To answer your question... last month we dtd 6 and 3 days prior to ovulation and on the day and nothing happened. Although last month I didn't track with OPKs so no idea when I ovulated as this month has been earlier than the ones I've tracked previously. I think my hormones are still getting back to normal after DS.

My first pregnancy (it ended at 6 weeks) we dtd 3 times in the entire cycle and I didn't know I was ovulating as I wasn't tracking nor planning for a baby.

With my son we dtd 4 times in the entire cycle and again it wasn't tracked. When we decided to 'try' I was shocked it worked in the first month. It was however lockdown and I felt very relaxed. This is my 3rd cycle for #2 and praying for this to be our month. We've dtd 5 days ago and yesterday. Hoping we can get another in today and tomorrow.

I'm now 11dpo, resisting the urge to test early. Have a feeling its not our month tho. 😕

Same. I think we were due on the same day. Surely it’s too early to test today?

I think its possible on the early tests to get a positive result. But I prefer to wait till the day or day after af is due.

Hi ladies, hope April is our month!!! Doing the SMEP this cycle, on cycle 4 ttc baby #2. AF due next Friday, hope it doesn't show!
Good luck to all of us x

Looks like im definitely out. Brown spotting today!!! 😭😭😭

@Purple29 is that normal for the start of your period x

Sorry to hear that Purple 😔

I'm not even sure I ovulated this morning. I haven't had any EWCM and my cervix hasn't been high or soft. I'm on CD17 now so who knows what's going on 😭 definitely going to get OPKs next cycle - can't see this one being successful

Morning!? I meant month

@RSmamma not really. I'm normally a 27 day cycle. This is CD24!!! I normally start with pink so this is unusual. But not sure if it's to do with my body settling after the ectopic.

I’m 9/10 DPO and been negative the last couple days! Is that too early to test?

@Purple29 sorry to hear about your ectopic. Possible it's just your hormones getting back to normal. Is there a chance it could be implantation bleeding?

@RSmamaa sorry I just noticed I spelt your name wrong in the last post!! Thanks it was just at the end of the year, so not long it takes to get back to normal. I never had IB with either of my previous pregnancies so i doubt it.

@Purple29 every pregnancy is so different though. Has it got any heavier x

@RSmamaa no its no heavier. Only a little brown when I wipe. It's kind of like stringy, def not normal for me. Will see what happens over the next few days. But I'm not hopeful. It never works out for me, my body is rubbish at getting pregnant and pregnancy.

Hi all,

I hope you are all feeling ok.

@Purple29 how are you feeling today?
Apart from thinking af might be on the way.
I know you will automatically think you are out, but the brown blood could be something else, not definitely af x

@allthingssparkly how are you? I think I ov on day 17 (last Friday) so I’m CD3 now! Urgh the 2WW has begun.
When we fell pregnant with dd, we dtd 3 times I recall over the fertile week. It was our 2nd month trying & I wasn’t very clued up with everything , but I did use the clear blue smiley test.

When we fell pregnant with dc.2 ( ended in a MMC) I think we dtd 3 or 4 times in fertile week. So not loads and loads. Probably average!

@Purple29 strange! Lets hope it either stops (if it's implant) or gets heavier so your questions are answered. What cycle are you?

@MangoLipstick and @RSmamaa I hope your right, that it's something else. Like I said I'm just not that lucky. This is cycle 6 ttc #2.

Just really struggling just now, to get early spotting on the same day I would have been exactly half way though a pregnancy. Just feels cruel. I just feel empty.

I'm doing okay thanks @MangoLipstick busy with work this week! How are you? We've DTD 4 times within our fertile window according to OvTracker. I'm also going away early April so that will keep me busy and stop me from testing early 🤞

I'm just trying not to get worked up/stressed about ttc.

Firm believer in that everything happens for a reason 🤍

@Purple29 bless you. I'm so sorry for your loss ♥️ sending hugs

Looks like its go time tomorrow! Do I class tomorrow as 1dpo or Wednesday?

Hey

Hope you don’t mind me jumping on this thread ☺️

I’ve been TTC for baby #1, previously on the pill since age 16 now 32.

I’m on cycle 13 and I’m slowly going insane 🤪😂 I came across this forum doing my regular monthly pregnancy symptom related Google searches 🙈

I ovulate around CD16/17 and am 13DPO. AF was due today. Had cramping a week ago and had no regular AF symptoms as yet but very faint pink CM today. BFP on Friday and again this morning 😒

Been for all tests at fertility clinic bar one which is scheduled for May and no concerns so far 🤞

How do you stay sane during the TWW ?

Best of luck to everyone trying to conceive ❤️ It’s an emotional rollercoaster

Sorry I meant tests negative, I’m still getting used to these abbreviations 🤦🏻‍♀️
