SMEP-ing our way to a BFP 🍁🍂🐿️🍂🍁

[Aurora81]

Our SMEP plans continue.... The old thread is almost full, so I started a new thread so we can continue on SMEP-ing to a BFP ✨☺️✨

@allgoodthings84 yep, bit concerned she's on commission or something?! 🤨🤣

Just got back from my day21 bloods, so keeping fingers crossed they're going to confirm ovulation 🤞

Honestly, I'm sure you're going to have a lovely line 💗

@NSx hello! Yes, bit concerned she seemed so desperate to book us back in for appointments etc 🤨

This is cycle 4 of properly charting and trying to time things properly, so although we stopped using BC a year ago, we've not really been giving it our all for that long really when I think about it?

You're also now in the TWW club then! 7dpo for me here, so bang on correct for my day21 bloods they did just now. Really hoping it confirms ovulation as my chart is definitely biphasic 🥚🐣

@LucyFraser1981 so I’m 5 days behind you 😂😅 longest 2 weeks ever.
I hope you get your BFP this month & u can kiss that lady bye bye 😂
my temp rose today again for the second day, so I think in fact I’m pretty positive I ovulated - which is good I suppose ☺️

@NSx I’m all good. I’m just scared that the tests stay faint or worse. Rather than take loads like lots of people to I’m scared to take any. I’m in my bubble. I’m so scared of losing it. I keep telling myself that I’m pregnant now and I can’t control what’s to come but my brain doesn’t listen lol. I rang the midwife department this morning as online it says it can take up to a week for them to call back but they called back in less than 2 hours and I have my booking in appointment booked at 8.5 weeks. I thought it be good to be on the books asap

Time for you to rest up now 😂 dtd done ✅

@LucyFraser1981 as it’s private I bet she actually is on commission as it’s a business and they are selling themselves to you. I just know your test results are going to be fine now you have the right day 😊

@NSx you definitely ovulated that chart is very clear. I don’t even bbt and I can see it 😂

@allgoodthings84 I totally get that, but once you see that big line you might feel more assured? You’re past your AF due date so technically you should be testing and it’s not considered as early 🤞✨ everything will be fine, how exciting your booking appt eek! Oh I’m delighted for you! I hope we follow in your footsteps this month but who knows 🥹😅

yea no more DTD - we didn’t DTD last night couldn’t be bothered so just DTD ovulation, -1, -3 -4 - hopefully it’s enough or the right time …
yes I think u are right, my chart does confirm ovulation. ☺️
the more months I chart the more clear my charts are getting it’s weird - let’s hope cycle 4 is a lucky one ☝️

@NSx I really hope you get your bfp this cycle! I’m going to be glued to this page watching all you ladies updates. I don’t think day after ovulation is important when you know when you’ve ovulated. Even if not too late there’s only max 10% chance apparently for day after ovulation when day of and day before is like up to 30%

@allgoodthings84 it is what it is now 😂😂✨ just need to hope and pray.
last month I DTD 6 days in a row including day after and no joy, so trying to take a more ‘relaxed’ approach if that’s even possible - I don’t think there is such a thing tbh I think ur always upto high doe until u get preg, wondering if it will ever happen 😅

@NSx exactly that. No matter which days you go for you always worry “not enough, too much” and so on

@allgoodthings84 100% hit the nail on the head there.
I can just hope and wish for a BFP in a week and a bit 😅

@NSx I’m crossing everything for you including my legs 😂

@allgoodthings84 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 thank u haha

Never would I have understood that sex could be a chore! I've decide I much prefer the TWW as we can have sex for fun, all I can do is chart my temperature, and that's it! No stressing about timing or how long my LP is, that's all done and behind us! God damn I hope we've all caught this cycle, it's bloody exhausting in the run up to ovulation! 🤦🏻‍♀️😅

My partner has his sperm analysis appointment for the 18th, so fingers crossed that his swimmers are up to standard! 😬

Honestly I’m about to give up 🥹😂 I can’t take many more BFN - and I know 4 months isn’t that bad by some standards but I just thought it would have happened by now and my mind is going down a rabbit hole 🥲

@LucyFraser1981 im sure all will be fine but it will put ur mind at ease checking the swimmers for sure 😊

Here’s my frer. I’m really concerned with how light the line is. It came up right away but it just seems so light. I’ll take another Sunday/Monday then just stop and just let whatever happens happen as it will only stress me out. I’m not feeling very positive right now

Just catching up on the messages, congratulations @allgoodthings84 and good luck for testing again tomorrow!

Congratulations @LucyFraser1981 on your good results also. Must be a weight off your mind.

@allgoodthings84 you’re overthinking it 💖 relax… that’s a great line - how many dpo are u? X

@NSx 15dpo. Every time on here I see a faint positive at this stage it always ends in CP or miscarriage. I’m just really worried. Wish I had done it in morning in case FMU would have been darker

Did u hold ur urine before doing it ? @allgoodthings84 test again in the morning or in a day…
don’t stress yourself - you’ve got this. You’ve been pregnant before and carried to full term, 😊💕

@NSx yep had a hold of 3 hours. I’ll feel better if the tests get darker but at the same time I’m terrified of testing and they aren’t any darker. I know I just need to take each day as it comes I’m just feeling so deflated and worried that the lines are light. I know it’s not mega faint or anything but I would have expected it to be darker. I know I should wait and do the other on Sunday/Monday and I’ll try FMU and hope for a darker line

Hope everyone is doing ok? My AF will be 3 days late tomorrow and still testing negative on FRERs etc 🤷‍♀️

@jmase this happened to me - my AF was late by 3 days for no reason 🥲 I hope it’s not that though and you get your BFP

@allgoodthings84 it will all be ok, just try to relax 💕😊 a line is a line! 🌸💖

@allgoodthings84 I know it's easier said than done, but try not to worry too much. Maybe wait until Sunday and test again, but if you're worried you could ask for a blood test to check hcg levels? Big hugs 💗

Thanks @A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 I'll definitely be happier if I get a good result from my day21 test today! How are you doing?

Hey everyone! @allgoodthings84, I'd be chuffed with that line, try not to worry, I think everything looks great for 15dpo. @LucyFraser1981, good news on the results, glad you had more of an explanation today. Nice to know that everything looks good for conceiving, sounds like the tests were worth the money. @NSx, I'm a day or two behind you. 1dpo and in to the TWW. Feels like it might be a long one! Going to try and fill my time and not think about it too much. Already looked up the hypothetical due date though which doesn't bode well. @jmase, hope this is just a delayed BFP for you. Same thing happened to me a couple of cycles ago and it was because I'd just started a supplement.
