Hi ladies,

Currently 7 dpo, ovulated early this month. Got my smiley face on cycle day 10 so assuming I ovulated cycle day 11. Very hopeful this month, getting twinges here and there but don't want to get my hopes up. Anyone else 7dpo, when will you be testing? I have 4 first response but not starting those till 9dpo xxx

Congratulations @ttcnumberthree and @Curlywurly3

Still got my fingers crossed for you @FirstTimeTryer93 but stay positive if its not this month. Nature can annoyingly just take its time but your time will come. Hopefully v soon xxx

ttcnumberthree · 19/06/2022 16:55

@FirstTimeTryer93 it's ok to feel disheartened. When I was trying for DC1 every month I felt convinced it was 'the month'. Didn't see a hint of a bfp until 7 months later when he was conceived. Which isn't long in the grand scheme of things but felt forever!

DC2 was conceived first month of trying, and this bfp came after two months, but I was very prepared for it to take 7 months or longer again!

Curlywurly3 · 19/06/2022 17:10

What a rollercoaster of a day! This makes it feel a lot more real!

@FirstTimeTryer93it took 3 months to conceive DD, hopefully you might still make it into March if AF does show? X

BEL88 · 19/06/2022 20:37

Congratulations @Curlywurly3!!
I think I remember seeing your name on an October board few months ago..is that right?

Harriet669 · 19/06/2022 21:10

Congratulations @Curlywurly3 and @ttcnumberthree 🎉🤍
Still plenty of time @FirstTimeTryer93 and what's a positive thread you've set up! X

Curlywurly3 · 19/06/2022 21:37

Thank you @Harriet669 when will you be testing?

Yes @BEL88 I was on the October thread! I ended up having a MC in December and then a TFMR in March. I’m really hoping this one will be OK

BEL88 · 19/06/2022 21:42

So sorry for your losses @Curlywurly3
I had chemicals in feb and march. I was under a different name in the due in October one but forgot my info so made a new one (think I was helloworld)🤣

Hoping everyone has their lines in the next few days and they're all sticky!!

Curlywurly3 · 19/06/2022 21:51

Oh yes, I remember you! Hi! 👋🏻 sorry to hear about your chemicals. This is our time! 🥰 @BEL88

Harriet669 · 20/06/2022 07:26

@Curlywurly3 sorry to hear about your losses, I hope this is a sticky bean for you 🤍
I tested today but BFN stark white, I'm only 8/9dpo though so hoping it's because I'm too early, I'm on CD23 today which is the longest cycle I've had, had a lot of 2week cycles and then 21/22 day cycles so even if AF comes I'm trying to be positive as at least my cycles are getting better

Curlywurly3 · 20/06/2022 09:14

Thank you @Harriet669 I did another FRER this morning and there was hardly a line there. I read the instructions again and it says to dip for 5 seconds, it used to be 20! I’ve been dipping for 20 seconds all this time and probably flooding the tests. I did another for 5 seconds and the line was stronger than yesterday. Feel so silly! I really hope you get your BFP in the next couple of days! 🤞🏻🍀 x

Harriet669 · 20/06/2022 10:20

@Curlywurly3 ahh so easily done though as I think different ones have different times don't they! So glad the line is stronger for you 🤍 me too, I normally start getting a lot of small pimples and spots before and and cramps for a few days but I've had nothing so hoping it's a sign 🤞🏼

ttcnumberthree · 20/06/2022 16:01

My 'indent' from yesterday morning has translated into a positive on clear blue digital today!

Glad to hear your line has gotten stronger too @Curlywurly3 I feel we must have pretty much the exact same due date given how similar our lines have been!

@Curlywurly3 @BEL88 @ttcnumberthree congratulations ladies!
What a lucky thread!

FirstTimeTryer93 · 21/06/2022 19:14

14dpo test negative this morning - as expected.

Due my period today but no show so far. Feeling cranky though so I think she's on her way.

How are you all ladies? Xxx

Legit went to the bathroom after typing this and found my period 😂

Ugh my cycles are all over the place since coming off the pill. First month off had a 28 day cycle, followed by a 27 day cycle, and now a 24 day cycle! Will this regulate? I don't want my cycles getting shorter and shorter 😫 xxx

OP posts:
Curlywurly3 · 21/06/2022 19:57

Ah sorry to hear that @FirstTimeTryer93 but it’s the start of a new cycle and new hope! Do you use OPK’s? My cycles are 24/25 days x

Harriet669 · 21/06/2022 20:52

@FirstTimeTryer93 sorry about AF showing up, I've tested for the past 3 days and BFN, still only CD24 but this is the longest cycle I've had since stopping the pill in December, think I might be 10 dpo but can't figure it out! My cycles have been all over the place too I had loads that were 14/15 day cycles! Two a month felt like punishment 😅

BEL88 · 21/06/2022 21:00

Sorry to hear @FirstTimeTryer93 about AF

My cycles were 27ish days but the luteal phase was only quite short (the part after ovulation) until I started taking pre conception vits and it made it longer...are you taking anything?

FirstTimeTryer93 · 21/06/2022 23:54

Yeah I use OPKs @Curlywurly3, I ovulated on cycle day 11 this month which was so early for me. I usually ovulate on day 14. I've tried the past couple month temping, but it never works out being I'm a shift worker.

My luteal phase is bang on 13 days @BEL88 which is about average isn't it? For some reason I just ovulated super early this month 🤔 I'm not taking any vitamins or anything, can anyone recommend any to me as I'm not sure what to buy.

The only thing I've been on is folic acid which I've been taking for about 9 weeks now. Thanks for all the support ladies 🙂 xxx
