@MrsCristianoX glad it’s not just me who can’t resist🤣 is your most ewcm normally on peak day? Xx
I have no idea if I’ve even ovulated so I suppose I can’t obsess about what dpo I am 🤦🏻‍♀️

MrsCristianoX · 12/11/2022 20:45

@ChloeN I mean i really tried but the flood in the morning and I couldn't resist. Got home about 7pm and tested at 1.25 if you are familiar with the easy@home tests 😊

mummatara · 12/11/2022 22:03

@ChloeN @MrsCristianoX I peed on a opk today even though I know it was going to show positive since my PT are still positive how bad is that 🤦🏼‍♀️ DS has got me so emotional today too he's just so cute and funny and cheeky and I'm so sad that my heart is so full and so empty at the same time

MrsCristianoX · 12/11/2022 22:17

@mummatara not ridiculous at all. Remember me peeing on a pt last month? Hadn't DTD but sure always hopeful 🙄 ffs. You are one strong lady you have got this❤️ ovulation can happen with hcg in your body as proved by my scan...

mummatara · 12/11/2022 22:27

@MrsCristianoX oh yes 🙈 funny DH said to me the other day before had done any BD I showed him how faint the line was and he said oh is it a new one I was like not unless I'm the Virgin Mary we hadn't done it since my surgery at that point 🤦🏼‍♀️ but there's always hope even in the men 😆 I know it's possible but I don't think I can trust what an opk says atm my cm is weird it's not what I would call fertile but not unfertile either I think that's the right word to use for it. it's def strange almost like a clear bit of mucus when I wipe it's not sticky but not what I would call eggy/stretchy either soz if that's a bit gross 🙈 suppose at least there's something there

MrsCristianoX · 12/11/2022 22:34

@mummatara watery? One step closer to the EWCM 🙌

MrsCristianoX · 12/11/2022 22:34

@mummatara I know way too much about mucus just realising 😂

mummatara · 12/11/2022 22:39

@MrsCristianoX no it's not I don't think I'm describing it very well 😂 I'll see how it progresses if at all. I told myself I wouldn't obsess I would be all chill and here I am obsessing 🤦🏼‍♀️

mummatara · 12/11/2022 22:40

@MrsCristianoX 🤣🤣🤣

Luna57 · 12/11/2022 23:36

@ChloeN i have only used OPKs for 2 cycles in 2 years. First cycle was ds and second was after first mc and I had ran out before I ovulated and fell pregnant by chance that cycle also. If I don’t get pregnant this cycle I might debate buying OPKs because I haven’t a notion what is going on with my cm right now to try and predict anything. One moment it’s EWCM and next it’s creamy then sticky and this is all in the space of a few hours so I’ve no idea where I am in this cycle and I’m cd36 first cycle post second back to back Mc 🤷🏼‍♀️

if I have ovulated (which I haven’t a clue if I have) do you always expect af 14 days laterish later? Is that the rule? You wouldn’t have a really long luteal phase it would be the follicular phase that would be the longer one with an never ending cycle?

T4Opal · 13/11/2022 07:30

Hello please can I join?
my sorry is I’m 35 with 1 dd, and we started ttc for her sibling January this year. It took 7 months to get a bfp who I then found out was a mmc in September. Had surgery 29/09 and I’m now on cd 3 of my first cycle. AF is a b*tch who has come back with a vengeance but I’m eager to get on it as my body clock is ticking and we’re now almost a year on!
Just like many of you the money worries are huge and I earn nearly 1/3rd more than my dh so I feel it’s my responsibility to ensure the bills get paid -he’s also rubbish with money.
He got made redundant (through no fault of his own, many people were laid off) a month ago but thankfully tomorrow is starting a new job. As I said AF finally arrived after a 6 week wait and I now feel the stars have aligned. It’s time to get back on the TTC train and all the joy/ anguish that goes with it!

ChloeN · 13/11/2022 08:38

@mummatara i did the same, I hoped a might get some extra dark ones to know when I peaked, I did get ewcm half way through that cycle as well so I really feel like my body gave ovulating a go🤣

@Luna57 sometimes when I get ewcm I get that and then more watery stuff at the same time, like on everyday of the fertile window?🤦🏻‍♀️ I was thinking maybe your body makes the ewcm and then still normal cm too, but I have no idea 🤣

bananamuffin99 · 13/11/2022 12:09

I am 12dpo, took an early detection test this morning and there was a teeny tiny hint of a line but this is the leftover from my miscarriage as I was still getting a faint line 4 days ago, so I will get my period in a few days. I feel really sad and deflated, I felt so confident I would get pregnant again straight away which is daft I know.

ChloeN · 13/11/2022 12:19

@bananamuffin99 it’s not daft, I thought exactly the same! I never thought I’d still be trying now even though it’s only been a few months

Babydustmamma · 13/11/2022 15:13

@bananamuffin99 its not silly at all! I was so sure that I’d get pregnant the first month, I was in absolute shock ♥️ I think it’s how you cope immediately after. I’m in tww now of cycle 5 after mc and still hoping x

AwayWeGo2 · 13/11/2022 15:37

@ChloeN I don’t temp or use OPKs, but (sorry for tmi) I get so horny when I’m fertile so poor dh never has much chance to miss a peak even if we don’t track it 😳 always been pregnant within 2 cycles so far just not sticky ones sadly.

@MrsCristianoX i think we all know way too much about mucus at this stage in our journeys! Sorry no advice to offer @mummatara just keep monitoring it and hope it becomes more obvious what’s going on I guess?

I definitely had ewcm and ov pain 2 weeks ago (4 weeks after MVA) but in my scan today they said my endometrium is really thin (5-6) so af is a way off! No idea what is going on as I’m still getting af-type cramps all the time. Also have a massive haemorrhagic cyst on one ovary so have to go back in 6 weeks to check it’s shrinking or they’re worried about torsion which does not sound fun! Don’t think it was there when I miscarried though as I’m sure someone would have mentioned it… so basically my cycle is totally messed up and I have no idea what’s going on 😂 sonographer did say she didn’t see anything concerning that could have caused the mcs though so that’s good I guess!

Welcome @T4Opal sorry you’ve found yourself here but glad af has come so you can try again!

Oh @bananamuffin99 that sucks, maybe you just tested too early as your cycle might be doing weird things! Keep hoping and try not to let it get you down too much. Each af is one closer to our rainbow babies xxx

mummatara · 13/11/2022 20:56

Anyone who usually gets O pain is it like a sharp twinge on whatever side you O from? I've been getting random twinges almost like someone flicked my side really hard all in the same place tonight but I never usually get anything like it around ovulation I don't even know know normally it's happened. Could be something could be nothing 🤔 just curious

MrsCristianoX · 13/11/2022 21:01

@mummatara that's the way my o pain is. Like a stabby feeling Xx

mummatara · 13/11/2022 21:08

@MrsCristianoX hmmmm interesting that's just what it feels like I better go see if hubby is up for a good time 😂 just incase 🙊🤞🏼

MrsCristianoX · 13/11/2022 21:16

@mummatara cant imagine him saying no after the 2 week ban 😂 it then settles into like period pain and disappears. Good luck 🤞 you won't need it 😂

mummatara · 13/11/2022 21:25

@MrsCristianoX haha no I can't imagine I'm going to get a no either 🤣

FfayeN · 14/11/2022 07:46

@mummatara yep exactly that! Almost like an elastic band is between my ovary and my stomach skin at the farthest bit before it's gonna ping. If that makes sense 😂, good luck!!! Xx

TheBirdintheCave · 14/11/2022 08:13

@mummatara I get two sorts. The first is a sharp stabbing pain that is on and off. The second feels like a huge bruise on my ovary to the point where it hurts to sit, stand up or bend over.

mummatara · 14/11/2022 08:25

@FfayeN @TheBirdintheCave thanks ladies ❤️ well we managed to dtd 🤞🏼I've had a few more this morning so hopefully something is thinking about happening 🫣

bunnykins123 · 14/11/2022 09:06

@mummatara mine is just like @TheBirdintheCave. I get a build up of pressure that feels like wind and then it progresses to my back (I have a tilted uterus so I think everything sits quite far back) and then for a few hours I have back ache and feel crampy. It aches to walk, sit down etc but not to the point where I'm in agony or anything.
