@Babydust99 did you BD on the right days though?

@LucyLoopyLu so sorry about bfn.
if you’re feeling wobbly about ttc (join the club) I really don’t recommend doing bbt. It just makes it worse imo.

Sorry to those who have tested negative. Have made it to CD33 so either pregnant or super long cycle. 18 hours to testing so really hoping. Will be gutted if BFN or AF arrives now as I'm actually starting to believe I might be.

Friend in my team who I'm really close with has just literally told me his gf is pregnant. Swear everyone around me is!!

Sending you good luck

Honestly, I feel like I see about 20 pregnant women every day since we started TTC!

And prams at every turn!

@wellhelloitsme thank you!

I know, they're everywhere! We have a lady at work who is due November too. Literally everywhere!

@anotherscroller thanks, I was thinking that myself. I'm starting to worry that maybe there is something wrong and I'm not actually ovulating or there is some other issue. I know logically that's not necessarily the case but can't help worrying about it

@Nichelette well that’s exciting! Everything crossed for you!

I think i’m out, started cramping this morning!

@Londonlady22 see what happens. I literally thought the same but still nothing. Hopefully I can report a positive in the morning 🤞🏻

Welll I did a few tests already which were BFNs so I'm trying not to get my hopes up too early
I have for the first time in 5 years have thrush- which I thought might be a sign. And also feeling bloated. But no cramps or AF Symptons yet

@anotherscroller I'm not sure because I don't 100% know which day I ovulated but we dtd cd 8, 10, 12 and 15 so 🤞

AF has arrived!! Moving onto June thread, congrats to all the May baby BFPs and gd luck to those still waiting for theirs!

9dpo.
I am so impatient I couldn't stop myself. Please can some other eyes look at this cause I'm sure I see a line...
Will do a frer tomorrow morning.
Not getting my hopes up as had a positive test last month then resulted in a chemical a few days later.

@Orangesaretheonly

Oh goodness that looks like a clear line to me! Especially for 9DPO!

Sorry to hear about last month, sending best wishes to you for this one

@Orangesaretheonly I can see it too! Fingers crossed that this is your sticky one 🤞🏻

@Londonlady22 hopefully don’t see you there 😛 but it’s been nice having you here!
@Orangesaretheonly this month too! So cool it works twice in a row. Crossing everything for a sticky bean.
@Nichelette hoping🙏….

@LucyLoopyLu I’ve been there. For some reason cycle 5 felt worse than cycle 8 feels. It’s helped me to start telling my friends about it, but it’s not for everyone.
tell me, are you getting positive ovulation tests?
are your cycles regular?
why are you worried you’re not ovulating?

@Orangesaretheonly cautious congrats lovely!! Fingers crossed for a sticky bean xx

Sorry to the BFNs, I’ll probs be joining you in the June thread very soon. Actually just want AF to get hurry up now!!

And yep I feel like everyone around me is pregnant 🙈

@LucyLoopyLu sorry for BFN, know how you feel, AF arrived today, it’s a shitty feeling isn’t it. I would recommend BBTing, I find it reassuring just to confirm ovulation, the OPKs don’t actually confirm you have ovulated, just that you are about to, maybe just try it for one month to put your mind at rest, I OPK and missed my peak this month so started to freak out that maybe something is wrong but seeing the temperature rise and stay up was reassuring.

@Londonlady22 sorry it's not this month. Fingers crossed next month is your time.

@Orangesaretheonly I can definitely see a line! Hopefully this one is sticky x

@LucyLoopyLu I agree with @Londonlady22 (so sorry for AF) I would try bbt for the month put your mind at rest I dont find it stressful I actually find the opk more stressful cause it gives a "result" if that makes sense bt has become a habit for me on the weekends I wake up take it and straight back to sleep!

Congrats @Orangesaretheonly !

@Orangesaretheonly Congratulations!! Hopefully this is the sticky one!

I'm out for this month, AF arrived but in a way I'm happy. After all the hooha I've had with IUDs, Dr's telling me I may be in peri and having low iron. This was a 28 day cycle, crampy feeling, real period. From the outside it seems as though I'm working as I should! So onto the next month. Congratulations to all the BFPs - Best wishes on your amazing journey! And see the rest of you in June 😆

@Orangesaretheonly congratulations 🎉

OMGGGG so I woke up on 12DPO with a big temp rise, which has never happened before. It’s been dropping since 2DPO… so I couldn’t resist a test…

Could this be it??! I’ve never seen a faint line EVER 🥹

@pixiecircle I can see it! Congratulations!

I tried to test today and the control window didn't appear 🤦‍♀️. Going to try hold for as long as I can and try later. I have a different test but don't know how sensitive that one is. Major back ache this morning..

@pixiecircle I definitely see that congratulations

@Nichelette sounds like a dodgy test. Fingers crossed for your next test
