Hi!
Making a thread looking for some company/support
I'm currently going into cycle 4, trying to conceive baby 1.
Looking for others in similar situation.
Beginning to feel a bit deflated now, as I am sure many many others are too.
Trying some things different this cycle to hopefully get a BFP
•ordered an Ovusense core
•carrying on with my reflexology weekly
•Trying the SMEP method
•Hot water bottle after ovulation as I read someone else done on here
•carrying on with my supplements

Any other advice/recommendations/suggestions welcome

May April be the months of lots of BFP's 🌟.x

@RMS0209 Amazons choice x but very little difference in the first 2 anyway

Longbin · 19/04/2022 20:26

@Hjudge56 FRER is the best in my opinion. The others don’t pick it up until much later on, including clearblue

MrsGrealish · 19/04/2022 20:27

@Hjudge56 I agree with @Longbin xx

RMS0209 · 19/04/2022 20:30

Hi girls 👋🏼

Hope everyone's having a nice evening - I'm still in a complete chocolate coma 🪺

Weird question: I'm CD22, 7DPO (I think), and usually I have mega sore boobs by CD20 at the latest, usually CD18, then AF on CD27. But this month, nothing yet. They feel completely normal.

I checked, and the month I got pregnant (august) I didn't have sore boobs until CD23 and then real implantation cramps on CD24 - or at least that's what I noted down in my tracking app. (But I wasn't stressing about symptoms then yet at all so maybe I didn't record it completely accurately.)

Basically is that a thing? Getting no sore boobs before a BFP when you usually have them before AF?! Has anyone else had this? Because otherwise I have ZERO symptoms. I do usually get twinges after ovulation (then BFN) - but maybe I didn't even ovulate this month so less progesterone?!

MrsGrealish · 19/04/2022 21:22

Hi @Presently83 my last pregnancy I had no symptoms bar implantation bleed (tiny brown speck) before my bfp. I think this sounds good! The sore boobs didn't arrive til about 5 weeks xx
I've had sore boobs every 2 weeks since ttc in January and bfn

MO22 · 19/04/2022 21:27

@RMS0209 did Ovusense take a while to send you the confirmation email? The payment is pending but no email. (Just finding other things to obsess about to pass the time now I'm back to cycle day ONE.)

Kitchiekobo · 19/04/2022 21:36

Welcome @Lulux33

I’m currently 8DPO and I’m doing the exact same thing. I did POAS yesterday which was negative. But not planning on doing any further until Sunday which is 13DPO.

Sorry to hear about your chemical pregnancy 😔 when do you think you’ll test again?

This is my first month ‘trying’ and I just feel like I’ve got every symptom going which is making me a little crazy - my Google search history is insane 🤣 x

RMS0209 · 19/04/2022 21:43

Hi @MO22 same thing happened! She told me to check my junk but I said I had nothing so she emailed me a copy invoice and it arrived a few days later.
Excited for you purchasing it! X

@Presently83 I’ve never had sore boobs at any stage of pregnancy. When I was pregnant with my daughter other people at the same stage as I was were saying they couldn’t shower from pain, mine were completely normal. It seems rare not to have it later on, but I felt nothing even late in third trimester/post partum

MO22 · 19/04/2022 21:45

@RMS0209 phew I will email them to check but good to know. Really hope it gets here before I go on holiday on Sunday, I remember you waiting for yours, it didn't take that long right?

RMS0209 · 19/04/2022 21:50

@MO22
[email protected] is the email address

It only took a few days x

Hey! Can I join... but for May?

MO22 · 19/04/2022 22:04

@RMS0209 just found it in junk but thank you!

@SMD16 of course, I think a few of us are on May now but also some on April... So bit of a hybrid for now!

pocketbunny · 19/04/2022 22:07

Have read everything but don't have the energy to reply... Tested positive for covid after attending a family destination wedding :( I'm 10DPO and tested negative, think I'm out.

Presently83 · 19/04/2022 22:17

Oh @pocketbunny what a pain. I'm so sorry about the covid, but 10dpo definitely means there is still time.

Tigergirl37 · 19/04/2022 23:30

@Presently83 I have exactly the same thing - I'm CD21 of a 26 day cycle and I would normally have had sore boobs for a little while (even checked back on my Clue app to verify) but nothing this month. The dreaded symptom spot but I can only hope this lack of soreness is positive.

Peonies94 · 20/04/2022 05:40

Anyone who gets the ovusense will have to pop over to our thread, it’ll be helpful having more charts to compare!

Hjudge56 · 20/04/2022 09:13

@Kitchiekobo im 9DPO today too! I’ve been using the One Step cheapies from Amazon the last couple days but BFN (including this morning). Although they don’t seem to have the best reviews anyway. They claim to be early detection but the reviews state people were still getting BFN’s until after their period was due. Not sure if anyone on here as used this brand and can give advice?

I have ordered FRER which are arriving today! Bur I want to want until at least Saturday which will be 11DPO. That’s when I got my first BFP last year before a miscarriage so maybe that’s the point my body would have built up the right amount of hormone!

alwaysseeingstars · 20/04/2022 09:18

@RMS0209 how you doing - any sign of a peak yet??
@pocketbunny sorry about the Covid, hope you feel better soon!
@MrsGrealish know what you mean about the fatigue, feel like a kitten sometimes - full of energy and then suddenly all gone! How did the shopping go yesterday? :)

QueenBee22 · 20/04/2022 09:19

@RMS0209 just wanted to check in. How are you doing?

RMS0209 · 20/04/2022 09:37

@alwaysseeingstars @QueenBee22 hi ladies, thanks so much for thinking of me and checking in.
No sign of a peak yet, last nights was low.. will do one at around 11am today.. fingers crossed.
How are you both? x

alwaysseeingstars · 20/04/2022 09:49

@RMS0209 oh gosh :( what CD are you? Mine was CD22 if that helps at all... bodies are very strange things. Counting myself as 2DPO now instead of 3, after people helping on here yesterday confirm the pains on Monday were probably ovulation so figured it's easier to count it from then! Hope your peak comes soon, any changes in temp? x

RMS0209 · 20/04/2022 09:55

@alwaysseeingstars I am CD22 today! I think Im just baffled cycles are normally 29/33 days... strange! I aim to test today 11am,4pm & 9pm.. my ovusense temp was 36.11 aswell (not sure what that means)

Yay 2dpo! sending you ALL the luck x

We will have to make a new thread soon - filling this one right up :) x

alwaysseeingstars · 20/04/2022 10:58

@RMS0209 It is odd, there is the chance that you haven't ovulated this month (most people miss one every now and again, nothing to worry about). Hopefully that's not the case and you'll get your peak soon but please try not to worry too much, not easy I know!! xx
