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 ✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨

Sorry meant BFN 🤦🏻‍♀️ Still getting the hang of these abbreviations

Took a test this morning even though I know my period is coming. Negative as I suspected. I got Covid just before I ovulated so we missed the window this month. I'm surprised at how sad I feel especially as I don't think dh will try again now.

Count from Wednesday as 1dpo @RSmamaa and good luck, baby dust to you 🤍

RSmamaa · 29/03/2022 08:17

@allthingssparkly thankyou! We dtd of the most fertile days so 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼. How are you feeling?

allthingssparkly · 29/03/2022 08:24

@RSmamaa your welcome 😊 I'm doing okay, busy with work this week before we break up for half term so that's taking my mind off over thinking the whole ttc.

I keep wondering whether I should have used OPK's but hey ho I haven't so we shall just see.

The days between my Feb period and March was 35 days which is a little longer than normal for me. Normally mine are 29/30 days.

So to cover all bases going to keep dtd when we can until my period is due.

MangoLipstick · 29/03/2022 09:31

@Purple29
I’m sorry things are tough right now - I wish I had words of wisdom.
I would have been over half way now - due date for dc was 15th July. I think daily about little bean but my toddler keeps me busy & I stop myself thinking about the what ifs, maybe it’s bad I do that, but I don’t think there are rights or wrongs for how you should feel. We deal with it best we can, don’t we?

Are you speaking to anyone about how low you feel? X

Purple29 · 29/03/2022 09:34

Definitely AF has arrived today. So I am officially out. Gonna go for more acupuncture and going to start taking floradix, he recommended that for me. Dont know whether to try opk's next month.

RMS0209 · 29/03/2022 09:36

Hi Ladies!
Looking to join if you will all have me 😊
Spotting started Sunday, AF will be here today/tonight/tomorrow... roll on April, lots of luck to us all. X

Mariabombia · 29/03/2022 12:49

Hi @Loopz66 !

I'm the same age as you TTC baby one also!

What test have you got left to do? Did you end up going private for them?

Believe me I know how hard this journey is, I feel more & more anxious each cycle but this month I'm realllly trying to be positive and stay positive.

Take heart in the results of your tests being positive ❤️

Fingers crossed for a positive result for you this month xx

Mariabombia · 29/03/2022 12:51

Also ignore me saying positive like a hundred times lol 🤣🤣 clearly got something on my mind haha

Loopz66 · 29/03/2022 14:20

Thank you @Mariabombia it’s good to know we are not alone in this ❤️

My last test is the hysterosalpingogram…I think that’s the right spelling 😂 it’s the examination of the uterus and Fallopian tubes. We have gone through the NHS. Have you had any tests as yet?

Hahaha that was like me yesterday saying BFP instead of BFN 🙈 positive on the brain 🤣

Yeh I’m really trying to remain positive as well I think I became so obsessed with it last year it took the fun out of DTD I’m trying to have a more care free attitude this year!

It’s looking like my AF is here, so fingers crossed for a positive for us all next month 🤞❤️

When’s your next O date?

Hi everyone,
I've been on quite a few of the threads previously but just took a bit of a break as have been really down and struggling.
My doctor has been really good though and put me on some tablets to calm me and I do feel less overwhelmed 24/7.
I could see a couple of you have started tests which I've also begun. My partners had his and came back in the normal range so he's fine. I had an ultra sound and an internal, just waiting on the results from that.
I really wanted to try the purple method this month but sods law my partner is away 2 of the specific days so just going to try when we can.
Has anyone got a plan of attack this month, looking for inspiration ha ha.
Sending you all lots of luck this month xx

RSmamaa · 29/03/2022 16:15

@allthingssparkly I feel like this month is proper because I tracked and dtd properly. Last two cycles was a bit meh.

Loopz66 · 29/03/2022 16:29

Hey @Brunette1989

I’m new here too ☺️

Sorry to hear you’re struggling at the moment things can get really overwhelming 😔

I’ve had the same tests as you so far just waiting on my partners results now but I’m assuming they will be fine as he has a son, my step son who is 5 🥰

Awk not to worry I’m sure other methods will work as well it can’t be helped. I’d never heard of the purple method until I seen it on here so I’m going to give it a try in a April.

I’m off work during my O dates so I’m hoping that helps with my stress levels this month 🤣

Sending you lots of luck as well ❤️

Just catching up on the tread I’m 2dpo, cd21 and I’ve just tested positive for covid I still want to be hopeful for this month but surely covid isn’t going to help. Annoying

RSmamaa · 30/03/2022 09:05

CD22 here and finally 1dpo. I don't think I can wait 12 days so early testing will start in a week 😆

Kitty901 · 30/03/2022 09:32

I am 3DPO and oh dear...came to the conclusion that i have zero patience now!! We are dtd again tonight as we had a skip night last night and following the SMEP this cycle. But i am not very hopeful as my cycles are so short, it does makes me upset.

RSmamaa · 30/03/2022 09:38

@Cecelia90 @Kitty901 what dates are you both testing?

Reesa2022 · 30/03/2022 09:39

Just catching up with the thread. So sorry @Purple29, sending hugs. Sorry to everyone who has had BFNs, baby dust for the next time you TTC✨

I'm 4/5 dpo depending on which app. Trying to be less obsessive this month as was analysing every twinge and post last month and got really down when BBT dropped before AF. Not gonna do BBT for much longer this round as I don't think I can handle the disappointment again and will just see if AF arrives. Tried to do purple method this time.
Just entered in my info on FF app and i like their analysis/info, more detailed than premom app. Here's my chart.

Good luck and baby dust to all in fertile week/tww ✨✨✨

[quote RSmamaa]**@Cecelia90* @Kitty901* what dates are you both testing?[/quote]
I am not sure i want to test as had big disappointments on previous months. I will try and wait if AF shows, my period is due on the 8th, i don't know why but my mind is just set that we will struggle conceiving #2 i hope i am wrong! I had the same feeling with our first and it is awful but took 6 months luckily so wasn't bad!

Cecelia90 · 30/03/2022 11:09

@RSmamaa my cycle is usually 28 days so a day late would be 6th April, but because of when my tests say I ovulated it’s pushed my predicted period back to the 10th, so I’ll probably give in to temptation and test on the 6th lol

Catred4 · 30/03/2022 11:34

@Reesa2022 I'm also 5dpo today, your chart looks really good - that's a promising second temp rise 🤞🏼 good luck everyone and really sorry to hear about the BFNs

Purple29 · 30/03/2022 12:03

So weird. So my AF wasn't due till tomorrow, had brown spotting Monday, yesterday was a dark red and a bit heavier and today just really light spotting, only when I wipe!!!

Think it was definitely too much for implant yesterday but what's going on?

Catred4 · 30/03/2022 12:12

@Purple29 that is super odd, have you tested at all?

FirstTTC · 30/03/2022 12:18

Hi there
First time on this site and looking for some advice! AF has been irregular for past year of TTC (37-43) days but had a peak ovulation on OPK 28 days ago, DTD multiple times around that time. Had 2 days of v light spotting 10 days after that but nothing like my normal period... period never arrived and I'm now on day 54 of cycle. Multiple BFNs, last 2 days ago. Not sure where to go from here!! Feeling miserable.
