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 ✨

So AF still hasn’t turned up, due tomorrow and had streaks of pink/blood/brown in my cm since Friday. Not tested today but yesterday was negative. I very much think I’m out. If AF hasn’t appeared by the morning I’ll test again but I don’t think this cycle is mine
12dpo today. I wondered if covid has had anything to do with my cycle, I had symptoms before I ovulated so wonder if it buggered it up. Gahh. 2nd time I’ve had it whilst TTC

@CinderellaFant congratulations!! Sorry for the slow congrats, in France so only just catching up 😊

@hipposinacircle thanks for the new thread ☺️

@cinderellafant congratulations!!!!

BFN, AF due today. I’ll move over to the May bird. Good luck everyone!!

@Mummyme87 sorry to hear about your BNF but until AF arrives you're not out. Fingers crossed she doesn't show for you today!!

Found you! 5DPO today. For some reason thought I ovulated Tuesday but just checked app and it was Weds! I am determined to wait to test until Monday 8th which is when AF is due. 🤞🏻
I feel SO bloated!

I am sure that having Covid has shortened my cycles, could also be complete coincidence but since I've had it I've gone from 30days every month to 26-28 days. 🤷‍♀️

@Orangesaretheonly yeah I’m not sure if covid has affected mine, I used to be 27days when TTC my 4yr old, then was on cerezette for 2yrs, came off for like a couple of weeks and thought I would give natural family planning a go before having a mirena put in and got pregnant (literally had sex once and had been off the pill 2weeks!!!!!) which was a ruptured ectopic. Had coil put in, removed after a year and now cycles are 23-27days. Meanwhile I’ve had covid three times and my three vaccines. So was it the hormonal contraception I’ve used? Mirena? Or covid/vaccines? Ovulation day just keeps moving about between CD11-15

It is annoying. You're not out until AF so my fingers are crossed for you. I also have a 4yr old- is yours starting school? If I am pregnant (🤞🏻) I'm going to be even more of a mess on her first day!!

Morning all 👋🏻 tested this morning at 10DPO and its a BFN. But.... Just looking through my chart and it says I O'd on CD13 but I think it could have been CD15 which would only make me 8DPO. My temp is up again this morning too. Could anyone please offer their thoughts on this? Please be brutal if you think I'm just clutching at straws 🙈 x

BFN* - it's too early on a Monday morning! Good luck to anyone else testing today!

I know nothing about temp charting. But imo even 10DPO is fairy early so I'd say give it another few days. AND I've also been reading about FMU not necessarily being strongest and some peoples urine is stronger in the evening. So I'd say no straws are being clutched and my fingers are crossed for you x

@RugbyGirl1 sorry to hear this. I also got a bfn this morning so I've hopped over to the May thread instead

@EdinburghGirl1 ah no sorry, I was correcting a typo! Sorry to hear about your BFN though 😔 I'm due to test Friday or so, will no doubt be joining you soon on the May thread!

CD25 here. Unsure on dpo, not really tracking as only cycle #2 but maybe 12dpo or 10dpo depending on what app I look at. Just tried to have lots of sex during that fertile week and when I felt like it! On Friday I was really sick, threw up and also had diarrhea. So the diarrhea makes me think it was food poisoning but obviously hopeful it was morning sickness (albeit ridiculously early!). AF due Thursday so I'll test on Friday if no sign.

BFN here too. Due AF yesterday or today though still no sign. Tested at 3am as toddler woke me up and I was being impatient so probably didn't hold for long enough. Going to leave it until at least Friday if no AF in meantime.

Hello! Can I join please? 7dpo today, stupidly did a test this morning and it was a bfn. I’ve got tingly/itchy nipples (TMI, sorry!), weird cramps in my pelvic area - they don’t feel like AF cramps but very aware of that area if that makes sense and woke up this morning on my front and felt like my uterus was really full. Probably just reading too much into it. This is cycle 6 since my MMC at Christmas ttc #2 so fingers crossed - if not, I’ll see you in May!

I’ve had blood with my EWCM today… has anyone ever had this before?

It’s a first for me though a quick Google tells me ovulation spotting can be a thing.

CD15 and still flashing smiley rather than static although I don’t usually ovulate until CD17/18 so that’s normal for me.

@Mummyme87 After having the Mirena removed my cycles were shorter and slightly irregular, it's only now (10 months later) that they're coming right.

I'm 5 DPO! Trying for no.3. AF is due on the 10th. The wait is already driving me nuts! A couple of months ago my FSH level was menopausal high, but when it was tested again it was within the normal range. My iron was really low as well. So although there is no evidence really to suggest I'm pre menopausal, it is in my head that a 3rd might not happen. But the doctor did say that there was no reason to suggest I couldn't have another baby. So I guess I'm worrying for nothing. Arrrghh!

I'm just waiting/hoping for symptoms...

Anyone had any early symptoms?

Hi thanks for the new thread 😊
cd20 and 3dpo here.
time is moving very slowly……
good luck to everyone

@Charl881 first ovulation after my miscarriage I spotted. Ok this month but it was really random for me xx

@MrsCristiano very odd! I swear it’s never happened to me but taking it as a positive sign 😂

@hipposinacircle thank you for asking. Tested with FRER Saturday night and negative then AF finally arrived yesterday 2/3 days late. Just happy to have clarity to be honest. Wishing you lots of luck for later this month x

@CDD1992 from your chart I'd say you ovulated a bit latet than CD13 too, when was your peak or where you not using OPKs?

@SidSparrow I had a simmilar scare they found something in an ultrasound and suspected it was adenomyosis I basically covinced myself getting pregnant would be hard but when they rescanned it was gone...still its hard to shake those things.
I am 4dpo just but utterly crazy so my symptoms are hard nipples sore boobs (all signs of ovulation) I have a headache and I feel sick anyone else lost it?

@Maybepossibly22 👋👋👋 hopefully its still too early for you! Are you going to retest?

@Nypie i did use OPKs but realised the ones I was using had terrible reviews online so I bought some more that arrived on CD14 did it as soon as it arrived and went straight to peak, did one the next day and it went to high so think I caught it in time but you wouldn't usually have ovulated before a peak reading would you? Which is why I thought in line with my temps CD15 might be more realistic? I also had some light spotting on eve of CD14 and into CD15 which makes me think it was then x

I'm 6DPO trying for number 3 AF due on 8th! Haven't been on any hormonal contraception for 5 years now just used condoms in between ttc and being pregnant. Conceived first try with both but I don't think we'll be as lucky this time. Fingers crossed for you x
