TTC cycle 7

[Mrstimm]

cycle 7 and no luck, I just want reassurance It will happen. I have been monitoring my cycle ( im a complete amateur) and on average my cycle is 25 days i also ovulate three days after my app states I should. I really am useless when it comes to all this. At what point should I visit a GP to do any tests?

Sorry your feeling so fed up, it really is hard work once you hit a certain point... It took 6 months to conceive my son and I was really fed up by that point! 25 day cycle seems quite short, on what day of that are you ovulating? Do you have a short Luteal phase? xx

I have 25/26 day cycles. But ovulate CD 13 so normal luteal phase.

I am 6 weeks pregnant and fell on cycle 11 after just having some basic fertility tests and showing no issues either side. So yep can be normal. Very frustrating. Just keep going.

im ovulating on day 15 of my cycle almost like clockwork and then 10 days later have a period. I'm not sure if this will effect it at all I feel so lonely with it all today like its so heavy xx

It can definitely feel very lonely, I know exactly how you feel.. if you're like me it's hard to discuss with your partner as my partner in particular is very relaxed about the whole thing and has a 'itll happen when it happens' kind of mentality which I really wish I had but I know I never will.. each month we are consumed by the same feelings and it only gets heavier as the months go on. I promise you there are hundreds of women on this forum feeling exactly the same right now you're not alone.

As for your cycle, a 10 day luteal phase is good, I only have a 10-11day LP too and I tested positive on 9DPO with my son so your cycle doesn't sound like a problem at all 🙂

I know it's probably not what you want to hear but just keep at it, maybe have a more relaxed couple of cycles, just take a breather and try and do some fun things and take your mind off it for a little while. Alot easier said then done I know but you can try!! Xxxx

@Graceybaby that’s really reassuring to read, thank you

@Mrstimm I have a 25/26 day cycle and get a positive OPK on day 14/15. So, a 10 day LP. I’ve been taking B6 and iron to try and help, and just starting another week of DTD.

I’ve never had a hint of a second line, and I wonder what we’re doing wrong.

You are not alone

I had comprehensive, private fertility tests and I had excellent fertility.

Pregnancy 1 - fell pregnant on cycle 8 but had a mmc at 8/9 weeks.

Pregnancy 2 (my dd) - fell pregnant after another 8 cycles of trying (lost baby 1 in May 2019, fell pregnant again in December 2019).

Now ttc #2 and on cycle 7.
