Does anyone fancy a cycle #1 thread? Trying for number 2, I’m 30, CD20, 8dpo, one probable evap on a Lloyds test followed by negative FRER. But - not out yet!

Hopefully will find some comrades!

Oooh! Good luck! How long to test day..?
CD25 here, AF symptoms are raging (painful heavy boobs and I want to shout at everyone!) so expect I will come on in the next couple of days. Then it’s on to cycle 2, armed with a new bottle of preseed šŸ’ŖšŸ»
I’m not going to tell DH about it, I think I’ll just apply it then try to initiate something šŸ˜†
projected test date is around the 10th June xx

Hi!

Hope you don't mind me jumping on this. I'm on cycle 1 of TTC number 2. I'm 5dpo today and getting impatient! Good luck everyone x

Hey @hannahhh !!

Thats exciting, do you have a planned testing day? Or just seeing if AF turns up?

I've always gotten a positive @ 9DPO so I think I'll start testing then! Usually count myself out if I have a negative at 11DPO. When do you usually test?

Organictangerine · 15/05/2022 23:48

Only 4 days to go in that case! Here’s hoping!

I got a BFP at 8dpo with my daughter, I’m technically still in cycle 1 but getting stark white negatives at 12dpo so pretty sure I’m out

aiming not to test before 10dpo though in future cycles, preferably more like 11/12

Best of luck all!

I’m now 7dpo today, AF due in a week (although I’m not entirely sure of my cycle due to not having had a full one in a long time having been on the pill and then have an ectopic pregnancy directly after).

Ideally I will wait for AF to show and rule myself out that way (or test if it doesn’t show) and that’s what OH thinks would be best too. Buuuuuuuuuuut I’m inpatient so šŸ˜†

Ohhh let us know how you get on with the preseed! I’ve wondered about that stuff.

Got everything crossed for you for this cycle! šŸ’Ŗ

I think my next cycle will involve just doing it twice - once on surge day and once day after - because I’m away all week without my OH on the lead up to when I expect I will have an LH surge and actually arrive home that evening. So will probably be a case of just DTD asap when I get back, and hoping I don’t ovulate early!

Currently 8dpo and my gums bled when I brushed them this morning and my head is taking me on a nice little journey of ā€œyou must be pregnantā€ but actually my gums just bleed sometimes so I’m sure that means nothing and that it’s way too early for that symptom anyway.

Yes, very close if I end up caving and testing first thing tomorrow šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļøšŸ¤Ŗ

And thank you - lots of baby dust to you for your new cycle!

Hiya šŸ‘‹ can I join? I'm on cycle 2 TTC #2. I'm 31 and my daughter turned 3 a couple of days ago 😊
We started trying last year, had an early loss on cycle 3 and after a discussion decided to stop (we were already on the fence because of a very traumatic birth with my daughter), but we really want her to have a sibling, so have started trying again. This time were trying the casual way, no apps, no tracking etc, I obviously have a rough idea of timings and I know when AF would be due but apart from that, winging it šŸ‘šŸ˜‚ were hoping the less stress will help! So Im on CD 19 at the mo.
