Hi everyone, thought if start a new thread for those of us heading into another cycle and hoping for a BFP in June 🤞 I was on the May thread briefly but decided to pause TTC after two early miscarriages this year. Was actually lovely to have a break 😅 but excited to try again this month. CD 1 for me today!

I have a beautiful 20 month old daughter already.

Hopefully we can all keep each other company on this rollercoaster! X

@LucyLoopyLu I've been there with all my friends and colleagues, often younger than me all had children and I felt a bit on the sidelines of it all but I got there with DS in the end. It can be really hard when you all get together. Fingers crossed for you.

Joining in! Due to ovulate in about 5 days, will be testing around 5th / 6th June. TTC baby number 1, second cycle TTC after a MC in Arch x

I have a very similar cycle to you, and will also be testing around then! Good luck, and I am sorry to hear about your miscarriage x

Hi all, hopping over from may - af started today so currently CD1 again, TTC number 2.
Have a short LP but this cycle it was a full 14 days (I'm thanking the 3-4 months of pregnancare and 1000mg vit C as it's been gradually lengthening). Also have endometriosis and adhesions to complicate things.

Hjudge56 · 21/05/2022 19:58

5/6dpo today and I’ve got very sore nipples and on and off cramping!

hoping this is a good sign ladies but just can’t get hopes up!!

QueenBee22 · 21/05/2022 20:55

@Hjudge56 I remember seeing you in previous thread best of luck!

I am 1DPO today so a good few days behind you!

Hjudge56 · 22/05/2022 08:33

Thanks @QueenBee22 ! And good luck to you! Hopefully this is our month!

LucyLoopyLu · 22/05/2022 09:59

@SometimesSquircles aw thanks, I'm glad it's not just me who feels like that. I know I am very fortunate in my life but feeling a bit fragile about this now. Glad things worked out for you 💙 I also hope I might be able to meet some new friends in my local area, especially if I do manage to have a baby, as my friendship group is quite scattered around now as well.

Harriet669 · 22/05/2022 13:06

Hi can I jump on? 1dpo (I think), had taken a break this cycle as I haven't ovulated once since I stopped the pill in December and GP referred me for a laparoscopy due to 2 week cycles also, low and behold yesterday I had loads of ewcm and took a cheep ovulation stick, it's was a darker than the control line 👌🏼luckily had DTD the day before and then yesterday so hoping I'm in with a chance! I've only ever had the faintest of lines and never any ovulation symptoms like that before! Fingers crossed for everyone for June 🤞🏼

Catred4 · 23/05/2022 08:57

LH peaks are wiiiiild. These were 3 hours apart??

Flittingaboutagain · 23/05/2022 09:05

No wonder I never catch a peak on a test!

LottieDot · 23/05/2022 10:53

Can I join? TTC number 2, first baby is 15months old and it took 2 years to conceive. We've been TTC since I got my period back in January (I'm still breastfeeding) but my cycles have been very long - 7weeks+. However I got a positive ovulation test today on CD22 so I'm very excited about that! Really hope it doesn't take as long to conceive number 2 as it did the first one!

Harriet669 · 23/05/2022 12:17

@Catred4 I think some people can peak quite suddenly! Or urine maybe more diluted

Tropicana1 · 23/05/2022 12:53

@Catred4 I'm the same - would definitely miss it if I only tested once daily!

Welcome @LottieDot

allgoodthings84 · 23/05/2022 16:08

I think I missed my peak here! I manually inputted the peak and highs as were all down as low on easy@home app. I think I peaked overnight Friday (day 17) as 10am Saturday was darker than it ever is in the mornings it’s always lighter than evenings so I don’t record it but I did as was darker still then at 5pm Saturday (day 18) it was lighter again but I didn’t get chance to photograph it for the app as got interrupted by 7 year old.

either I missed my peak or I didn’t have one and won’t ovulate. It’s my first month tracking so I have no idea

allgoodthings84 · 23/05/2022 16:09

The reason I manually changed to high and peak was so it would record on my chart as wouldn’t if all said low. When I compared the colours to the manual chart they were high results

Tropicana1 · 23/05/2022 19:07

@allgoodthings84 I'm not always convinced the app is that great at the numbering, I've had some odd ones before that I've gone in and edited and the colour gradient they've applied has been really off! Think the lighting you take the picture in can really impact it too - I agree you definitely peaked somewhere on those two days

allgoodthings84 · 23/05/2022 19:16

@Tropicana1 it really confused me as some of those days the lines were nearly the same in colour but still saying low with low numbers so I then purposely made it dodgy to get a “0” as it then lets you select the line colours from a chart which were then high numbers for day 17 and 18 but I didn’t record those in case it was me being silly. The line was darker than their high result colours which you see on the packaging that’s for sure.

also annoyingly is that the app seems to darken the pictures. It’s been bright every day and I’ve taken them in natural light on my window sill and the pictures on my phone are bright but when I load to the app they go dark and even if I use their automatic feature it goes dark when it loads. It was annoying me 😂.

I’ve got all the sticks and the change fascinates me. We haven’t been trying this month I just wanted to see when is the right time for us ready for next month. I will track it next cycle too to see if it’s the same/similar or different so I know whether I need to always use the sticks or not as although I’m fascinated by them they really get in the way with a 7 year old ha ha

MissBlue93 · 24/05/2022 06:22

Hey everyone I'm jumping over from the May thread, AF not arrived yet but my bbt dropping the last few days so I know it is.
Is anyone else tracking OPK and BBT?
Cycle 3 TTC baby number 3 but with a new partner. I feel like we went wrong by not bd enough, also I did not drink anywhere near enough water as I had next to no cm when I usually do, I was living off Pepsi max 🤦🏻‍♀️ and also we've had a rough few weeks of having covid so been living off crap food!

Either way it was my first month tracking so I'm just pleased I kind of got to know my cycle a bit. I'm usually 28 days, 29 maximum but currently on cd31 as didn't ovulate until cd20, which I suspect is because I had covid at the time. So hoping I'll ovulate sooner this time! Also v random but I spoke to a psychic who said she sees June as either conception or birth, so perhaps this could be my month!

Baby dust to you all ✨

Hopefulprincess · 24/05/2022 10:39

Cd8 af finally stopped!!! That was loooong and totally uncalled for 🤣😂

Hopefulprincess · 24/05/2022 10:42

@MissBlue93 I live off Pepsi too or Coke Zero my body would shock if it saw water 🤣 well it does in coffee form I guess ! I switched to decaf after my morning perculated one I have decaf the rest of the day . Least you know what’s what with tracking. Iv never done it I have insomnia and kids that don’t sleep so wouldn’t be accurate

Skylark1990 · 24/05/2022 10:42

Hi all, hope you're all well. @LottieDot I'm still breastfeeding too - my daughter is 21 months nearly :) Exciting you got a positive OPK, hopefully you conceive quickly this time! @Catred4 that's such a good solid line! When did it start fading? Sometimes the peak is so short isn't it! What day are you now?

Hopefulprincess · 24/05/2022 10:43

@allgoodthings84 Theyr pretty strong I’d say you did and missed it on sticks 💜

Hopefulprincess · 24/05/2022 10:45

@Harriet669 sounds like your in with a great chance! Good luck 🤞

allgoodthings84 · 24/05/2022 11:03

@Hopefulprincess oh I hope so although more for next cycle when we are trying 😂 I will be due on at end of June

uh oh I drink around a litre of Diet Coke/Pepsi max a day. Do you think I should cut it down?

don’t know why I’m worrying about that as I wasn’t trying when I conceived my daughter and I was out drinking all sorts with no thought that I could be pregnant. This time feels different I’m 37 and for some reason I keep thinking I won’t get pregnant again probably because I really want to.

I hope to see lots of PFP from all you ladies in June

I wouldn't worry about it, I meant it more as in I just wasn't drinking anything other than Pepsi so I was quite dehydrated with orange pee! I went through a phase of god knows how many cans a day, and noticed considerably less cm than the previous month where I'd been drinking squash etc alongside it. Weird how the body works!
