TTC April baby ☀️🌼🌿🌧🐣 - part 2

[hipposinacircle]

Ok second thread for those of us that are still TTC an April baby.

I am CD12 so still got a bit of a wait yet...Not even at the TWW yet.

Fingers crossed this is a lucky thread for us all ✨

Negative test at 10dpo so I guess I'm out of cycle 2 and on to May TTC.

10dpo is still early! I'm 9dpo today and desperate to test but know it's still so early! Keep testing my fingers are crossed for you x

Thanks @Orangesaretheonly , I know it's still early just with my son I had a blazing positive at 10dpo so I am basing it on that experience. Fingers crossed for you!

@J1290 Amazing news!!! Congratulations and to think you were out only to have a BFP, wow, so much hope to us all :)
@Englishgirl9 hcg levels can fluctuate, for the same person on different pregnancies. I will agree, 10DPO is still early and until you another few days in, your levels might be below detectable. Good luck and baby dust xxx

12DPO and a BFN for me today 😔

@CDD1992 I am sorry to hear :( whens your AF due? maybe you can do another if it doesnt arrive by then? xx

I finally got my peak! After using almost a whole box of clear blue tests. Typical the one month I choose to use the pricey ones is the month I ovulate late. CD19 today, guessing I’ll ovulate tomorrow. Annoyingly haven’t been able to DTD since Monday so I don’t think I’m in with much chance but will DTD today and tomorrow and hope for the best.

@hipposinacircle has your face stopped flashing yet?!!

@MrsCristiano Any more symptoms or sign of AF?

@J1290 congratulations, that’s a nice clear BFP!

@NatGee ita due sunday so 2 more days of painful waiting. No real AF symptoms at the mo. The only difference is my skin is really clear which is unusual, normally I have a bit of a breakout the week of AF
X

@Charl881 nope nothing. I'm gonna test on Tuesday at 12dpo so any result then will be conclusive! No more line squinting. However I say that today because I'm at work i might fail on Sunday 😂

No AF yet, due yesterday or today. I tested this morning but the test didn't work!! No lines at all. Now waiting until I next need a wee...

@thedust oh no, how frustrating! if you can wait for first morning urine, i hear theyre more concentrated xx baby dust!!

@MrsCristiano I said I wouldn’t test until 12dpo this cycle too. But that will be three days after AF is due now so not sure I’ll stick to that!!

Hey!

I did post a message but all new to this and I don't think it posted 🤦🏼‍♀️ late joiner here! 10dpo and due AF on the 8th. So far all negative :(

We're TTC our final baby, This would be #4. 3rd cycle fully track but unprotected for over a year now, our last baby resorted to fertility treatment and we've had 3 miscarriages with our last in April xx

@Charl881 I'll break on Sunday I know I will🙄

I couldn't resist and just did one, negative! Expecting AF to show up today or tomorrow and then can get started on next month. Ordered a BBT thermometer.

@MrsCristiano 12DPO can still be early for some.... never know what your hcg levels will end up being
@Ki-King hi and welcome! fingers crossed for you that your AF will be late. sorry to hear about the miscarriages has your doctor shed any light on why? baby dust to you xx

@NatGee unfortunately no, I've just had the typical 'chromosome abnormalities' even though none of my losses were tested. I'm currently debating whether to go back to doctors and request further blood testing for recurrent mc xx

This morning I weed into a cup and then hunted for a test before chucking it into the loo with a “oh stop it!” 7dpo. Quite proud of myself for not doing one. But I do think I’m going mad. Need help!

@CDD1992 so sorry 😔
according to FF only 20% of “perfect conditions” ovulation/insemination actually succeed.
It's so so hard 😢

@Ki-King fingers crossed youll come to full term this time round!!
@anotherscroller omg how addictive are they?! I tested the last two days but not today

@anotherscroller oh I start testing at 6dpo, I can't resist🤣

@NatGee thank you 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@Ki-King sorry for messaging again, and i dont mean to diagnose or speak out of turn but from what you said about your cycle i gathered you're expecting your luteal phase to be 12 days. I wonder if that has an impact on whether theres enough time for your progesterone to remain elevated to support a pregnancy? Obviously you need a doctor to tell you for sure and i am only saying because i begun tracking my pdg levels, so sorry if i am talking nonesense but it might be something to consider in case you hadn't come across it before? xxx

@anotherscroller yep it's absolutely rubbish. Just want to get AF out the way now and on to the new cycle. Keep loolkng at my notes and chart to see if I did anything "wrong" x

@NatGee I love the input of any advice or suggestions so fire away lol. I've been considering this myself, my luteal phase has been lasting between 8-12 days, what do you use to track your progesterone?xx

I bought a pack on Amazon. If you search "proov pdg" you should find it. It comes with 10x ovulation tests (LH); 5 progesterone tests (pdg), x2 FSH level tracker (this is good for older women like me) and x2 ultra early pregnancy tests (One Step 10mlu/u). Just ordered a second pack as I think I am out this cycle
I believe you can buy just the pdg tests. Proov are the only provider who do them from what I've seen
