TTC APRIL/MAY THREAD 2

[RMS0209]

Hi Ladies!
2nd thread for this chatty lot...
Cycle 4 (May) TTC baby #1
The chat of no TMI or silly questions

@MrsGrealish oh im sending lots of baby dust! I’m just trying to figure out if it typically happens before ovulation, like a day or two before. Because if so I may have miscalculated my ovulation date 🙈

@Hjudge56 oh mine defo starts at least 3/4 days before xx

@MeganMama28 it is so tough mentally i know, do look after yourself we can’t give up and every day you're one step closer! Covid made a cycle of mine early but also gave me mid cycle bleeding which i have never ever had before in the 20 odd years I have had periods! Has this ever happened before for you? I guess it is tough on the body but nothing seems to be tougher than getting through this rollercoaster of emotions every month

Thank you for all the congratulations, trying to not spend my holiday scrolling my phone as much after anxiously googling everything possible while TTC.

I didn’t bring my stash of tests with me as I was convinced it wasn’t my month and have all of a sudden decided to doubt my test and now need to go out in search of a pharmacy ASAP 🙈. Anyone else think they won’t believe it until multiple brands confirm??

@Hjudge56 I’m similar in that I get about 5 days or so of EWCM but usually the day I get a peak on a OPC I have the most.

@MrsGrealish hopefully not an egg wasted .. i get the cramps and clicking sensation about 24 hours before I actually ovulate. I had always thought it was the egg releasing but my temps were never identifying that day as my ovulation day. Googled it (as always) and apparently really common for that to happen a day before ovulation so fingers crossed for you!!

@MrsGrealish did you have any luck setting hubby up on a hot date with the cup? I feel your frustration ❤️

Does anyone in the tww have any symptoms? I'm 8dpo now and have had a pretty consistent mild cramp feeling since a few days after ovulation. Not sure what to make of it as I know sometimes these things just happen!

@RosyappleA I had the exact same thing. First cycle started 3 days early and now had this weird bleed in this cycle. This is the first time experiencing it too which is why it's thrown me off so much.

Hoping it doesn't mean I'm out this month again before we've even begun 😔 xx

@Sassy144 he really wasn't keen on the cup date but we DTD (I feel like their should be an emoji for fireworks) and finished!!

@Lulux33 that's really interesting I never track temperatures so great to hear! The spikey ovary pain then the cramps I was thinking game over xx

@MrsGrealish yay yipeeee!! Fingers crossed xx

Hi girls,

My MN has been playing up and logged me back into my old username - it seems to flip back and forth between old and new depending on how I log in, and is SO annoying - and I haven't been able to find this thread anywhere on the app! So weird. Finally logged in on my computer and found you all here! Hooray.

Anyway. I waited until AF was four days late and finally decided to do a test this morning..... and here it is! EEEEK!

VERY cautiously optimistic after my MC at 11 weeks back in October, so know this only means I'm pregnant for now and not that there will definitely be a baby at the end of the year/beginning of next.

Anyway, hopefully this will sprinkle some more baby dust on this lovely group ❤

Gah! And now that posted 100 times and didn't even include a photo! MN is being weird. Hang on...

@Presently83 oh my gosh, congratulations! Really hope this one works for you, sending lots of luck for a healthy 9 months xx

Can you see this?

I still can't see this thread ANYWHERE on the talk app, is anyone else having problems? Can't seem to attach photo either. Weird!

@MrsGrealish woohoo! That's great 🎆

@Presently83 congratulations that's wonderful! Can't see attachment but really pleased for you, I understand your wanting to be cautious but you must be over the moon

@Presently83 congratulations!! ❤️❤️

@Hjudge56 ooh.. are you thinking you may have ovulated later than you thought? If so hopefully still time for you!!

@alwaysseeingstars well potentially! Only by a couple days!

I’ve been using the Flo app and I am not 3-4 day late for AF when I am always 24-25 days on the dot. So I’ve marked my pregnancy tests as negative on the app but it says there still may not have been enough time for hcg to rise.

im trying not to get my hopes up but it’s SO odd for me to be late and I’ve got sore boobs, dragging sensation here and there, fatigued and generally feel different! I’m also producing a fair bit of CM so if I’m not pregnant then this is very cruel! But I’ve done another FMU on a cheapie and it’s negative again this morning! So I don’t think it’s my month. Just wish AF would show up so I can try again next month at this point!

I am 3-4 days late* that meant to say!

@MrsGrealish fingers crossed last night was THE night!!!! I hope you feel better today after a successful dancing session! 🤪
