Hi all just creating a new thread since the other one is almost full!!! Really really hoping this is our month, but not hopeful, DH is away with work for most of my FW and only comes home the day before I think I will ov. I've also injured my back!!!

I have ordered pregnacare before conception vitamins which are being delivered today so I am going to start taking them today @Baby3herewego xx

CheeryCupcake · 19/10/2022 12:55

I caved and did another test today, 11/12 dpo now, AF due today but no sign yet. BFN. Confused. If AF doesn't show up by Saturday I'll do another test then. Now to distract myself until then....

CheeryCupcake · 19/10/2022 12:59

Not to clutch at straws but is it possible to get a BFN if you somehow don't do the test right? Like don't wee on it for long enough or something?

Baby3herewego · 19/10/2022 13:26

@821k I’ve been taking the before conception pregnacare so hopefully you’ll have some luck with them too xx

Sparklythings1 · 19/10/2022 13:29

@CheeryCupcake I always wee in a little cup so I have it there in case I want to do another test. It’s definitely possible it’s not had enough to be able to detect it

821k · 19/10/2022 14:01

Thank you @Baby3herewego 🤞I hope so too I am starting to get discharge again now and we have been having it every 2-3 days xx

kizzy97 · 19/10/2022 14:06

CD 20 today, 9 days to go until test day 😬

ScaredSally · 19/10/2022 16:06

8dpo and had an increase in really watery CM...sign? I don't remember if this is normal or not

shibeshibe · 19/10/2022 16:48

7dpo and starting to feel like my period is coming and one really sore boob. I am hopeful its a sign of good things but realise it's probably just pms, although i have regular cycles and dont usually get sore boobs until one or two days before AF. Holding off the test for Saturday or Sunday 10/11dpo but feeling like it's gonna be me doing one on Friday as I can't help myself. 🤣

Congrats @Baby3herewego !

Baby3herewego · 19/10/2022 16:54

@ScaredSally I had that and got my bfp!!!

Purple29 · 19/10/2022 17:31

I am now 4dpo and I actually am discounting this cycle. We dtd on cd9, got my peak on cd12 and then couldn't dtd again until cd14 and 15. So think we will have missed it!!!

Actually nice as it hasn't been playing on my mind. If it works next cycle I'll find out right before my 40th. Would be the best gift ever!!!

5dpo for me now - had some unusual twinges earlier today, enough to make me wince a bit! I've been super tired this week too, falling asleep early and straight away which isn't like me either. But I've now got a sore throat so I'm wondering if I've caught dreaded lurgy from work which is going around atm and that's why I'm so tired!

My2boysaremyworld · 19/10/2022 18:35

@MendaciousMabel I'm 3DPO and feels like Iv got a cold coming too 😩xx

ScaredSally · 19/10/2022 18:44

@Baby3herewego oh wow really?! That's definitely got my hopes up now! Terrified but sooo want my rainbow!

Butterfliesandroses · 19/10/2022 19:10

Could I ask how most people are tracking ovulation dates? I'm using the fertility friend app and tracking BBT as that's what worked to conceive DD1 nearly 4 years ago but I wondered what works for everyone else?

Littleheart5 · 19/10/2022 19:20

I’m using Flo and OPKs (Clearblue), more OPKs because we weren’t having any luck and I thought it might be that Flo was off. But Flo was completely right, we just haven’t managed to conceive!

I'm using premom and the ov sticks

@Butterfliesandroses I use premom and Ovia, plus easy@home OPK and clear blue digi

Sparklythings1 · 19/10/2022 20:21

@Butterfliesandroses premom and the easy at home tests here. Did clearblue alongside this last time, with the Ovia app too which now seems to be unavailable 🤔 It was probably overkill anyway! Decided to do without the clearblue ones when they do the same as what the easy at home ones do anyway. Confirmed it last time when they would peak on the same day, only disadvantage to the clearblue is the easy at home ones would tell you later on in the afternoon too whereas you’d need to wait til the next morning for it

I also use ovia. Have used it when I started trying for my first. Really like the app. I just use premom because it takes a picture of the opk and makes it easy to read!!

Think that’s me out, pretty sure AF has arrived 😩 Only cycle 2 so trying not to be too devastated but omg I am 🤣 Only two positives here is the fact I now don’t have to awkwardly make up excuses as to why I’m not drinking at a friends birthday this weekend and I didn’t even waste a single test since AF has turned up before 10dpo again this month

Brunette1989 · 19/10/2022 22:02

Hi everyone,
I've been on previous threads but came off for a few months to try and help myself. This will be our 16 month since miscarriage trying for first, which is just terrifying when I work it out. Waiting for NHS gyno which is 42 week wait, went private for a consultation as I found I could claim that back with work. He's booked me for a laproscopy and given me 4 months clomid. Has anyone been on clomid or know anyone that has to know if they can be successful? I seem to be ovulating, so he said for me it would be superovulation.

Sending you all lots of baby dust xx

Sparklythings1 · 19/10/2022 22:46

@Brunette1989 gosh that’s ages, good on you for hanging in there, hope you get some good news soon 🤞🏼 My friend’s little one was conceived on clomid x

Sparklythings1 · 19/10/2022 22:50

Okay so 7dpo, went for a bath, came out and thought I was bleeding. TMI but there was watered down brown blood on my towel. Put a pad on and marked on my app AF has arrived. An hour and a half later, still feeling sorry for myself but went to the toilet and there is no blood on my pad 🤔 Could it be implantation bleeding? I didn’t have that last time. It was definitely brown and hard to tell how much due to the fact I’d just came out the bath but not a lot. Is 7dpo the right day for it?
