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 ✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨🤞🏼✨

@MangoLipstick absolutely I agree with the OPK's. My periods are regular so I don't see much point in using them again. Clue app is predicting my ovulation date as the 22nd March. In Feb's cycle I got positive opk's on the 23rd and 24th.

I'm going to DTD a day or two before my ovulation date as I didn't do that last cycle, we probably did it too early and the day after ovulation! So it's probably why we missed either that or I have a very short surge.

I'm going to go off CM this time too I think which will be an indicator as to when I'm ovulating 🤞

25th March

Hey everyone, AF started for me yesterday so joint this thread 😊

Hello! Just a quiet lurker here!

@BigAlice AF showed up for me this morning so will be in TWW with you in a couple of weeks 🥰 (That's if I can convince OH to start trying end of March, we previously agreed April so I'm 🤞🏼)

Thats me CD15 so the TWW starts now!!! Hate this wait.

Hey, Iv messaged on the March thread but guess I’ll join as got a positive last night then this morning a negative no hint of a line atall 😔 so il await af ! I’m 7dpo I o'd 4 days early this month 😳 so af should be early too xx

@Hopefulprincess I see a line on both tests in the pic!!! 🤞 you start seeing it get stronger!!

@Reesa2022

Sorry I have been away for a few days trying to relax my mind!

No I hadn’t even heard of this but I am willing to give it ago!

I really feel like my body is ready to have one but then nothing comes! X

Bottom one is ovulation test I do both as opk get darker if there’s hcg too. Il show you the negative from this am

@Hopefulprincess ah ok, 7dpo is still early to be getting a positive at all. So you never know.... your not out till AF shows x

That’s true fingers crossed 🤞 is anyone else still in this month or is everyone waiting/out ?

Hello All ♥️
Took some time away !
I'm just about to enter my Ovulation week 🤞🏼
Usually ovulate around CD 16-19 and today we are CD 14.
OPKs are getting higher but I reckon it'll at least be a few more days till Peak.
I AM PREPARED AND READY 😢😂

How's everyone doing ?
What CD are we all on ?

Just lurking here like many others. Stopped my pill two weeks ago hoping that AF will show soon so we can start TTC so hopefully will be testing next month but who knows?!?
The waiting is killing me as we have been talking about it for so long but had to wait till 3 months from returning from Mexico due to zica

@Aimee1995, I am in the same boat however only just finished the pill after being on it for a year, currently on the breakthrough bleed stage atm but will begin opks once that passes to see if/when I'm ovulating! This is baby #2 for me, I had forgotten how consuming TTC was!! Fingers crossed we both get to test in April! xxxxx

@allthingssparkly that sounds like a good plan of action! I think it’s good to try and take cues from your body, like CM, if you can. I go by EWCM and twinges and aches I get on one side. I usually get them a day or 2 before ov.

Plan of action this cycle is to try a similar approach to ‘the purple method’ advised by @Purple29 👍🏽
so dtd y’day, (will wait 3 days for swimmers to replenish) then dtd every other day. I think this will take some pressure off and keep it fun.

Good luck in your 2WW purple!

Good luck @FreckledMouse
Prepared and ready for action 😆🤣

I’m cd 11 now, last month I ov cd 21 on a 31 day cycle ( my LP was only 10 days so too short really) it used to be 12-14 days. I’ve been taking vit c and b6 to try and lengthen it abit, hope it works.

@MangoLipstick I conceived my first with a 9-10day LP, tested positive on 9DPO so it's definitely do able! 🙂 Fingers crossed xxxxx

@Graceybaby that’s good to know, thank you 😁💞 I’m read things about how a short LP can make it more difficult to conceive, so I automatically started worrying x

@Mangolipstick I really hope it works for you. We have done that method again this month and this is the first month since before my loss that I had the nipple sensitivity while breastfeeding again during ov. So I hope this means I've ovulated and that gives me a reasonable chance!!!

@MangoLipstick a short LP will have an effect if it's very short but 10 days is fine. It took me 6 months to conceive my first and it was the month I started taking the vitamin C and B6 that I got a faint BFP on 9DPO, maybe just a coincidence though of course! 😁 xxxx

@MangoLipstick At least we can be cycle buddies together 🤞 hopefully this is our month ⭐

@Purple29
Thank you, I hope so too🤞🏼
I gave my fingers crossed for you too.
That’s good to hear about you ovulating - It sounds positive to me. Oh gosh the 2WW, doesn’t get any easier does it! 😫

@Graceybaby have you always had a 10 day LP? That’s brilliant that you had a line at 9dpo, what prompted you test at that time, did you have some symptoms? X

@allthingssparkly Yes! I will make sure to check in and see how you’re getting on! 💗

@MangoLipstick, I think so, I did for the 6months I was trying to conceive my son. I had no symptoms at all when I tested positive, slight nausea a few weeks later but that was it. Sometimes I'd only get to 9DPO that's why Id test plus I was too impatient to try and wait 😂 xxxxx

Is there anything worse than having to have sex when you’re both exhausted and can think of nothing less appealing?! 🙈

@Decaffe I feel this. Our 1 yr old is becoming hard work sometimes 😆
