I don’t know what I’m doing with the emojis this month. Got the star signs in there though!

Cycle 10 for me 😀

Best of luck to everyone!

Hello everyone! Oops I’ve fallen behind again after being out with covid. I finished AF today as expected but no idea how my cycle will continue now. I still have symptoms although they’re much better and I am still testing positive. Anyone else has this whilst TTC?

@BiscuitLover3678 I had Covid last cycle and tested positive on the day AF arrived. I found AF to be a lot lighter than usual and lasted a day longer but not sure if that was just coincidence? Due AF tomorrow so will let you know if it's changed at all. I've been taking a few more supplements this month so change could be down to that

Hi all CD 3 and nothing to report.

@NSx so glad that you have clarity now, as I personally would find limbo land frustrating 😀 a new cycle brings new hope.

@BiscuitLover3678 I hope you are feeling better. Remember our bodies are amazing, so try not to worry it too much and try to rest as much as you can.

@Glawen the app that @NSx told you about is very good to use especially when you are unsure. BTW it definitely looks darker ✨

@Mummyme87

Aurora81 · 02/08/2022 14:24

@Mummyme87 I am the same 😊 once I know I can move on to trying again. I hope this month is going to be a lucky one for you ✨

EdinburghGirl1 · 02/08/2022 14:44

@Mummyme87 and @Aurora81 yea totally agree once you know you're out you just want it to be the new cycle so you know where you are and can start again

Aurora81 · 02/08/2022 14:48

@EdinburghGirl1 how are you doing? You are 12ddpo today aren't you 😊 I know what you mean about knowing that you are pregnant, as I felt that the last time as well before I tested. I guess my body remembers what being pregnant feels like ✨

EdinburghGirl1 · 02/08/2022 14:54

I'm ok thanks. Yes 12dpo now but now AF yet. At least I know my luteal phase is ok as when ttc#1 I had a couple months of short phases. Just trying to not think about things too much now and will focus on cycle 3 when it arrives

NSx · 02/08/2022 15:17

@Aurora81 yes I was honestly getting worried because you hear these stories of people missing periods and things being all mucked up but no pregnancy, so now I can just concentrate on cycle #2 and hoping for a BFP in 4 weeks time πŸ™πŸŽ‰πŸ€žβœ¨βœ¨

EdinburghGirl1 · 02/08/2022 15:34

@NSx hoping for lots of Bfp on this thread this month

Mummyme87 · 02/08/2022 15:39

@BiscuitLover3678 i had covid two weeks ago, will see how it affects this cycle. I seemed to Ov earlier than usual. I had it in December aswell, can’t remember how it affected my cycle then

Aurora81 · 02/08/2022 18:10

Who else feels excited when they order opks and pregnancy tests πŸ˜‚ me πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

@NSx I would totally worry too if mine was late and I wasn't pregnant. I am basically trying to focus on a 3 month plan to improve my egg health and fx that will do trick. Fingers and toes crossed for us both and all the lovely ladies on this thread.

Aurora81 · 02/08/2022 18:14

@EdinburghGirl1 thats great news about your luteal phase. Mine was better this month and I am going to increase my B6 levels in the luteal phase this cycle. I am also trying to find Starflower oil without gelatine.

Aurora81 · 02/08/2022 19:14

Has anyone used these? Came up as a suggestion when I was on amazon... 10miu πŸ˜€

EdinburghGirl1 · 02/08/2022 19:19

@Aurora81 fingers crossed the B6 helps. Sorry I haven't tried those tests before

NSx · 02/08/2022 19:31

@EdinburghGirl1 - yes fx for everyone in here this month, πŸ€žπŸ™πŸ’•βœ¨

@Aurora81 i was getting a bit worried so I’m glad but now I have the worst cramp ever 😭😭😭
I’m going to take starflower too this month & monitor things more closely!!

(I have 3 packs of CB ovulation Kits, some strips, and got preseed today… 😭 don’t know what more I can do really πŸ˜…πŸ€ž)

Aurora81 · 02/08/2022 19:55

@EdinburghGirl1 it's all a balancing act isn't it ✨

@NSx maybe because your cycle was late? Re the cramps. I use cell salt no 8 Mag Phos for period cramps and a heat pad. I want to get L'arginine to help with blood flow. I found that I have had some small menstrual clots the last 2 cycles, so apparently the L'arginine help to increase nitric acid which helps to dilate the blood vessels. I want my lining to be the best it can be to help implantation ☺️

MissDottie · 02/08/2022 20:18

Hello all,

I have been reading along with the April thread and hoping to join! I am 34, TTC no1. I’m CD4 of cycle 3 today. Had a chemical last month which was horrible after getting some nice positive tests. I tested positive for Covid on my suspected day of ovulation last cycle so was surprised to have conceived at all and wondering if this has affected the viability possibly.

Hoping for a BFP for a May baby and would love to follow along with you all.

NSx · 02/08/2022 20:35

@Aurora81 I just googled what that was, how does it work, are they good? I will have to try them my cramps are awful today I’ve had to take pain killers 😭I’ve never even looked to see if I have clots .. wouldn’t surprise me. Does that make u less viable ?

@MissDottie welcome πŸ’– I’m so sorry for your chemical, covid is awful, hopefully it wasn’t related but u never know!

Aurora81 · 02/08/2022 20:51

@NSx my friend is a homeopath, so I get them off her. You should be able to buy the Era Tissue salts in any health shop I don't like the Weleda ones. They are too hard. Definitely try a heat pad too, as I always find that helps with cramps.

@MissDottie I am so sorry to hear about your early loss ☹️ fx that this cycle will be a lucky one for you ✨

NSx · 02/08/2022 20:55

@Aurora81 ill give it a try! I’m hoping the starflower oil helps too as I read it’s good for PMS x

ClearestBlue · 02/08/2022 21:12

ello everyone, we’re kicking off SMEP today 😬

I’m 37, TTC no1. I’m CD8 of cycle 8. today. I was so naive to think it would happen quickly 😫I’m utterly bored of not being pregnant & seeing all these bumps.

Good luck everyone, hopefully this is our month :)

Lion14 · 02/08/2022 21:26

@ClearestBlue I literally could have written your message, I thought it would happen straight away, and can completely relate to the bumps everywhere feeling! Wishing you loads of luck this month! ✨✨✨

EdinburghGirl1 · 02/08/2022 21:49

Hi @ClearestBlue and good luck with SMEP this cycle. Sorry you're finding it so tough and it's taking longer than expected. Fingers crossed this is your month ✨
