Hoping for a BFP October/November

[Purple29]

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!!!

Hi ladies. I've been quiet for a few months since my loss in August. I'm still on waiting But I've been quietly following the threads over the past few months and I just wanted to say... to those of you who feel let down by your bodies or feel inadequate because successful pregnancy has been a challenge... please cut yourself some slack. Life is already hard as it is and it becomes way harder when you keep facing disappointment over something you have so little control over. Your pain and sadness is valid and cannot be minimised however don't let it consume you and stop you from celebrating the phenomenal woman you are. Don't let yourself lose out on enjoying 3 weeks of every month because of stress and anxiety.

Hang in there beautifuls! You'll get to hold a little you soon. Until then.. don't let another 3 weeks pass without you doing something you truly love, without buying yourself something nice, without indulging in your favorite food and without looking yourself in the mirror and remind yourself you are a kick ass human being❣️

@Bluelightbaby sorry AF turned up. New cycle fresh start lovely.

11dpo and have such a sore throat. Haven’t tested yet but will do shortly. Praying to every god it’s my turn 🙏🏻

@Purple29 @BCxx I'm in Perthshire!

@Salpforyou I'm so sorry about your loss in August. What a lovely message to send xxx

@Mummyme87 got everything crossed for you x

Think it’s a bfn. Can see a VFL but I’m going to go with an indent as it’s a FRER. I may get a clear blue but I suspect I’m out

@Salpforyou this was utterly lovely. I’m sorry for your loss!

@Mummyme87 ahhh 11dpo is still early. There’s been people who didn’t get a BFP until 12/13! I’m 7dpo today and my temp dropped 0.04 after continuously rising so I’m hoping this isn’t the beginning of AF coming and my temp slowly coming back down!

@Bananatoast123 i know it’s early but My luteal phase is 12days so AF due Friday, so would expect a line by now. Not impossible I know but I think fairly unlikely.

7dpo, could be an implantation dip?

@Salpforyou what a lovely message!!! I kind of needed to hear that, sure a lot of others did too!!! @My2boysaremyworld I'm so sorry, its a hard day, my DH did remember but be kind to yourself. Big hugs.

*didn't remember

@Mummyme87 I know we all want to be hopeful for each other!! But if you remember regardless of your LP length, your baby would only be 3 weeks and 3/4 days so still early!

I’m hoping it’s that or just a tiny fluctuation but we won’t know until tomorrow! I had less sleep last night so I know that can also impact so I shouldn’t overthink the odd reading! Sending off my progesterone blood test today which will confirm I did actually ovulate and I’m making enough hormone! Fingers crossed 🤞🏼 I’m not sure I have another cycle in me!!

@Bluelightbaby sorry AF has arrived x

@Salpforyou so sorry for your loss. So true what you said though, I really needed to read that so thank you x

@Knov20 my partners parents are near scone in Perthshire - lovely area, we visit every other month :)

11DPO and a BFN thismorning.. I know some don’t get a bfp until a few days after but I can already feel the cramps starting 😭 Never did I think this would be so hard.. this is our 6th month but I think one more month and I will have to give up on the idea of having a second 😭

@Bluelightbaby aw lovely. Do you visit often? I love Scone that's not far from me!

@Purple29 thank you xx

@Salpforyou so very sorry for your loss.
Thank you for your kind words. Really needed them today. Each cycle feels more difficult than the one before and each BFN chips away at the belief that it will only be a matter of time before I get my BFP and a successful full term pregnancy. Harder still when my DH already has children from his first marriage. He tries so hard to keep my spirits up; he’s amazing and I’m probably wrong but sometimes it feels like only those who are physically going through this every month truly understand the heartache when your body doesn’t do what you want it to over and over again.

Wishing everyone here a BFP very soon x

Does anyone take conceive plus meds ?

@Bluelightbaby i don't, but I've just started on a few different vitamins in the higher doses for their specific benefits. Starflower oil, vitamin b6 and vitamin c in the higher doses and then folic acid which I've been taking ages anyway . I'm going to see how I go with them. I bought my OH the male conception vitamin because I don't think I could convince him to take a load of individual ones.

@Bluelightbaby yes I take conceive plus, plus extras for higher doses

Is anyone able to help me with bbt? It’s the first month I’m doing it!

I’m 8dpo and today and yesterday I’ve seen a drop but not below the cover line. Can you have a slow decline to AF as I’d read you tend to drop 2 days before? My LP is usually 13-14 days! Am I out because I’m dropping or is it ok because I’m still above cover line? I’ve been having some cramps the last few days, more stronger today!

You’ll all think I’m crazy but I just had the most bizarre feeling. I was lying down in bed for 2 minutes with my toddler running about my room. I all of a sudden had a feeling in my stomach and the only thing I can compare it to was when I was pregnant and my son was pushing his arm or foot right up against my skin. I put my hand down and there was an actual hard thing there then it went. Very bizarre 🤔 I’m sure it was just my stomach or something and clearly even if I am pregnant it wasn’t a baby 😂 but between that and the date of when a potential baby being conceived 4th nov, the exact same date as my last period 2 years ago when I conceived my son and had to always say that date at scans, I will be very weirded out this month if it’s it 😂

Hey ladies! Hope everyone is doing okay?

I've had another weird cycle this month. So came off pill in August maybe around the 15th, had a period/withdrawal bleed at the start of September, 32 days later AF started properly although I had had almost a week of extremely light spotting. Fast forward to now and I still haven't had AF this month, my app that I use to track only gives an average estimate of AF due date which is at 30 days, but even based on previous AF I am now 5 days late!

I took an ovulation test on a whim about 3 days ago and have kept it up twice a day for the last few days I seemed to have caught the end of a spike in LH by the look of the tests, and now it's too faint to consider it still being ovulation.

All PG tests have been negative although I don't know if there is a shadowy line on one I took this morning. Yesterday I started cramping again, mainly on one side or central around the ovary area so confused as to if its AF coming or implantation?! Still no sign of AF at all not even spotting! But have been very up and down with moods and when the cramps started yesterday my breasts went very tender, they aren't so much right now but last night they were!

Anyone had anything like this before? I'm sure either DS I had a longer cycle when I got my BFP but I can't really say I had any symptoms I just felt so nervous the day we did the digital to confirm positive and that's all I remember 🤣🤦‍♀️

@Salpforyou so sorry for your loss in August and thank you so much for sharing such a lovely beautiful message, I hope you are well too lovely 💕

@My2boysaremyworld I hope you are holding up well sorry it would have been your baby’s birthday sending you lots of love

@staceymarieox sounds promising especially tender breast!!

The TWW starts tomorrow for me fingers crossed for me and everyone else xx

Hello ladies, popping in to catch up as it's that time again! I'm 10dpo, had a weird month. I confirmed O by BBT but negative Proov pdg tests from 7-10dpp and way lower progesterone than last cycle despite seed cycling and using progesterone oil this time.

Now I've just had brown discharge it filled about 1/2 a pad. Much more than spotting. I was only wearing a pad coz I was having violent sneezing and after 2 children, muscles are a bit weaker than what they should be...!

Any thoughts on why I'd get brown discharge/old blood at 10dpo (BFN this AM with FMU.
