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 ✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨

Hey I joined this thread a a.week or 2 back period not due until next Thursday..have had no symptoms at all apart from sore boobs like they feel like they could fall out of my bra they feel that heavy. Every month since I stated trying to conceive i had every symptons
Under the sun, this month nothing apart from the boobs. Really thought this was my month but going by symptons I feel I may be out again. I booked myself into a fertility clinic as im on my 11month if trying and I feel so drained with it all.

@em123456789
I am sorry about your false positive. I also had false positive two cycles. One on frer and a few on one step. So I usually look at the test before I use it to see if there is any indent line already and usually i can already see the faint second line. 🤷‍♀️
Hopefully this months is our month 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Sabina93 · 09/04/2022 07:47

@staceymarieox
Same here. We also want our second to be the last one so that would be nice. However my mom is from twins so it also could be twins 😀😀

Haha that's good, I hope I will also be able to hold back this time. But I say this to myself every month 😀

Sabina93 · 09/04/2022 07:57

@Xtina1986
That's like me. Every month I have all of the symptoms so I'm trying not to think too much about it this month.
Have you tried anything like a preseed or conceive plus? I've read lots of positive reviews, but also a few negatives.

I know how you feel. I really thought that I get pregnant fast this month as the first one happened on the 3rd try.

I hope everything goes well for you at the clinic 🤞

RSmamaa · 09/04/2022 07:57

@em123456789 I've not spoken to a dr about it to be honest. I did speak to a nurse when discussing breastfeeding and she said it's probably because I was still breastfeeding. I stopped in February and I ovulated a little earlier this month so maybe they were shortening. Who knows!

ViL89 · 09/04/2022 10:48

@Everythingcrossed89 hope you're okay xx

Xtina1986 · 09/04/2022 11:07

@Sabina93 this month we used pressed used conceive plus ovulation capsules last month as I thought I may not be ovulating properly however this made my period late and lasted 5 days it was horrible all brown and thick sorry tmi so stopped those straight away. I think I covered my fertile days this time and ovulated a lityle earlier than normal. Every month I had all the symptoms nausea sore boobs, tirdness. Yes hoping fertility appointment will help me I'm 35 now and it's been 7 years since I had my last wee boy. How long have u been trying?

LuckyWithMyLot · 09/04/2022 12:15

Congratulations @TTCBABYNO2xx !
Lovely line for 10dpo.

I felt like crap yesterday. 5dpo and had a fever and muscle aches. I'm worried it's covid but I've done 2 negative lateral flows and I feel a lot better today, so hopefully not.

Sabina93 · 09/04/2022 12:24

@Xtina1986
I'm sorry that you didn't have a good experience with the capsules.
We also used preseed this month so will see if it was any help. And I think we also covered all of the fertile days. How many dpo are you? When can you test?

We have been trying for 8 months so really hoping for BFP finally 🙏🏻😊

Everythingcrossed89 · 09/04/2022 12:59

Thank you @ViL89 I don’t think I’ve processed what’s happened as I’m holiday in NYC. But it’s made me hopeful that something is possible as first faint line in 18 months xx

Xtina1986 · 09/04/2022 13:03

@Sabina93 hey thankyou yeah last month was tough cried alot very emotional have been trying for 11months now. I'm 9dpo today going to test Monday r Tuesday I said earlier I had no symptons apart from boob pain which I always get but for the past few days on and off I've had this horrible taste in my mouth like my teeth feels coated in it just bruised my teeth and it's still there not sure if it's anything to go buy but never had it before. I hope u get ur bfp aswell when will you test.

ViL89 · 09/04/2022 13:30

@Everythingcrossed89 I can imagine but focus on the positives like you said! Enjoy NY lots to take your mind off things.

CD17 and got a positive lh test so managed to BD this morning. We're on holiday with my parents so was completely silent lol. Back this afternoon so hoping we can have a more fun BD tomorrow hahah.

About a year TTC so I manage the tww quite well now just distract myself and assume it's not happened every time.

Anyone else just entering tww?
Xx

Everythingcrossed89 · 09/04/2022 13:37

Thank you @ViL89 NYC definitely helping to distract. I’m sure I will come crashing down when I get home. Best of luck with your cycle; I know exactly what you mean about TWW now, had my own fair few! Best thing to do is try to keep busy and distracted as possible and I’ve symptom spotted so much that now I realise it’s completely pointless!

Peachygal27 · 09/04/2022 15:27

Hey everyone!
I’m new to here, just spent an hour reading this whole thread and love the support everyone gives! Also nice to see I’m not the only one searching for lines in tests lol.
I’m looking for some advice. Me and OH not trying but also not not trying. So my periods are irregular and I’ve no idea when I ovulated but we DTD 22/26/27/29 of March but all tests up to now have been negative! Had some mild cramps for a week or so, tender nipples and so exhausted the last two days but no sign of AF yet. Unsure if I could be testing too early or if I’m out completely? Hate the waiting game 😓

Sabina93 · 09/04/2022 18:32

@Xtina1986
Oh I'm so sorry I know that it can be really frustrating. I was really sad and also cried at the beginning but now I'm just trying to think positive and not to get stressed.

I think that your symptoms actually sound really promising so fingers crossed 🤞
I'm only 4-5dpo so I have to wait till the end of the next week 😏

Sabina93 · 09/04/2022 18:34

@Peachygal27
Hi 😊 you're not out until af arrives. Dont you know when is your period due? Maybe you're just testing too early

Peachygal27 · 09/04/2022 18:50

No unfortunately my periods are irregular, so one month it could be a 21 day cycle and the next it could be 42.. Noway of knowing really. My last period was 3rd March so hoping one way or another I’ll know soon!

Sabina93 · 09/04/2022 20:17

@Peachygal27 yes you'll find out soon. Fingers crossed for BFP 😊 will you be testing again tomorrow?

ViL89 · 09/04/2022 20:47

@Xtina1986 I'm a few months on from you and got everything fully checked out I felt it helped so would recommend best of luck X

I used to be the same @Everythingcrossed89 I tend to so okay on week 1 but by the middle of week 2 I'm symptom spotting like the best of us lol

staceymarieox · 09/04/2022 20:49

Hey everyone, tonight I caved and bought an early detection test, clear blue the one that's meant to be from 6 days before, currently uts negative :( I am feeling a little deflated tbh! I feel different in my lower stomach etc really feel like we have done it this month, has anyone had these negative and still had a BFP the same cycle? I'm 4 days away from aunt flo based on 28 day, my cycles aren't regular so I know that could be a factor still so I won't give up!

RSmamaa · 10/04/2022 06:43

@staceymarieox do you know how many dpo you are? I wouldn't go by when AF is due if you are irregular as your luteal phase may change every cycle. I had a negative clear blue this cycle but 2 days later got a positive with boots early detection. I was only 8dpo at this point which is very very early. Good luck x

staceymarieox · 10/04/2022 08:59

This month I have absolutely no idea where I am regarding dpo! Its the only month I havent noted it down because I usually go crazy testing after it, at a guess I would say around 8/10dpo, I know I ovulated as I caught it on a test then it was faint then negative over the following two days but I can't remember what days I tested 🤦‍♀️ I took another early detection this morning and I think I can see a faint pos, but it is kind of a blink and you'll miss it and I'm very prone to line eye 🙄 stomach cramps are increasing now too which I'm hoping isn't aunt flo coming early!

Peachygal27 · 10/04/2022 09:56

Morning! How’s everyone this morning?

Yes I tested again with the cheap testing strips but still negative. Nipples are really sore today so possibly AF coming

Purple29 · 10/04/2022 14:10

Think I'm out again. Doing the ov sticks and had 3 days of high and then 2 days of low. No peak. On CD13 so thinking I might not have ov'd

cloelisa19 · 10/04/2022 16:44

Hey! late to join this thread but i’m currently 11DPO and I looked at my test at 5 mins and there’s this? Why is the line so thick! Is this normal? it’s pretty pink and showed up within 5 minutes. But i’ve never seen a line like this! Help please? it’s a one step test, a batch of 20 from ebay
