Hi all,

Anyone want to join on the long tww? I am currently either 5 or 7 dpo. I had a solid smiley on a CB on morning of saturday 29th which would put ovulation subday.. ish but then a very clear positive on the easy@home the evening of monday 21st so ovulation tuesday. So i am confused as to when i actuall ovulated! DTD on sunday monday and tuesday...hopefully i got caught it.

Felt a big pop in lower abdomen yesterday but maybe my imagination and wishfull thinking!

Anyone else waiting "impatiently" 😂

I'll join. I'm not sure when I ovulated though. I bought the testing kit and the line was clear but not as dark as the control, then the next day it faded. I had sex the day it was clearer but don't know if that was too late.

2022TTCBaby1 · 20/11/2022 02:08

Hey @WednesdaysChild11 welcome! How long did you test for? I kept getting this and had a tip to test in morning and evening and found i caught my surge in the evening rather than morning. Good luck

Usually ovulation happens 25-36 hours after the positive opk, so you probably caught it if it was positive and you did actually ovulate in the end :)

Also, which brand of opks did you test on? Some are notorious for the other line never getting as dark as the control one. I think one step is one of those.

WednesdaysChild11 · 20/11/2022 11:32

@summerchild92 that's what I was thinking. It was a boots own make one.

WednesdaysChild11 · 20/11/2022 11:34

@2022TTCBaby1 hi! Just 2 days, a bit late to the party. On the morning of day 16 and 17 (last month I think I ovulated on day 17 but that was because of CM, I didn't have a test last month, I have just bought these for the first time).

potatosconelover · 22/11/2022 09:52

I'm driving myself bananas. I'm on day 28, I usually have 26 day cycle. I had spotting at 10 DPO (I'm now... 17 DPO). I did some six days early tests far too soon and got bfns. I did two yesterday, and two the day before and got bfns. But my cervix is high and soft and I have felt nauseous for two days.

I just want my period to come and put me out of my misery! The tests are 99% accurate at this stage, I am 99% sure I'm not pregnant but I am clinging onto the 1% of hope. Like I will probably go and buy more pregnancy tests today.

What is it they say about when you do the same thing over and over again expecting a different result?! Does anyone else do this?!

2022TTCBaby1 · 27/11/2022 19:48

@potatosconelover how did you get on?

Have we had anymore BFP???

I think i will ovulate tomorrow or tuesday! Then the TWW starts again 🙄

Pixiedusted · 27/11/2022 19:51

Hey @2022TTCBaby1 i think I’ll be ovulating tomorrow too!

summerchild92 · 27/11/2022 21:07

@potatosconelover gosh, same here!! I’m CD30, although I’m usually 28. 🙄😬 tests were all bfn, so I’m just hoping af gets here asap if it’s supposed to. 🥹 I don’t think there’s any chance for a late bfp? Everyone seems to get a pos very early or on the day af is supposed to arrive at the latest 🥲
do you plan on testring again tomorrow?

I'm officially out, @summerchild92 ! Got my period yesterday, so was officially three or four days late. I did many, many tests and drove myself demented. I had two really stressful events last month and I think it just knocked everything out of kilter. Fingers crossed for next month and good luck to you!! X

2022TTCBaby1 · 28/11/2022 11:34

@Pixiedusted we are in sync. Wonder who will cave first haha!! I am trying to not get too crazy this month. Keep busy and not overthink it all! Would be nice to get a BFP so i can surprise the OH on christmas though!

@potatosconelover atleast the suspense is over and you can start the cycle. The waiting is the worst!

Pixiedusted · 28/11/2022 12:09

@2022TTCBaby1 I know it’s so hard not to think about all the ‘what ifs’ if it’s this month. My husband has been really unwell so we have only managed to DTD once so far so realistically I know I’m out anyway!

2022TTCBaby1 · 28/11/2022 12:30

@Pixiedusted there is always a chance! I think the OH is fed up of me haha we joke i only want him for his goods haha we have DTD everday for past 5 days and will for next 2 i think haha

Use and abuse haha

But probs wont make a difference!

2022TTCBaby1 · 29/11/2022 16:16

Had a positive opk last night and this morning. Thinking ovulatiob may be today or tomorrow. And so it begins... 🙄

OP posts:
summerchild92 · 30/11/2022 09:16

I’m now CD34, period is still not here, tests all bfn. 😥 I don’t know what’s going on … I just want AF to show at this point.

2022TTCBaby1 · 30/11/2022 15:55

@summerchild92 that is so frustrating!!

I am either now 1 or 2dpo so my wait begins!

Can we fast forward a week or so? Haha

CJCW17 · 30/11/2022 20:37

So this is my day 3/4 blood test results. I’m trying not to Google because it never gives you a clear answer anyway! Not sure if it’s normal or not!

This evening I have EWCM which I didn’t have earlier, my partner is working tonight so I’m hoping the AM isn’t too late 😬 I’m not testing this month so just sort of following my bodies lead!

@summerchild92 im really hoping that you come out of limbo soon, that’s honestly the worst bit. I’d rather know I wasn’t pregnant than just be sat there convincing myself that AF is coming but actually being secretly hoping that the next morning I will have a BFP.

Anyone want to join on the TWW??
2022TTCBaby1 · 02/12/2022 15:19

@CJCW17 i have no idea what the results mean :( mine were
LH - 6.2IU/L
FSH- 6.5 IU/L
Prolactin - 448mIU/L
Testerone - 2.2nmol/L

They suspected PCOS but turned out as slight endometriosis. But my levels are alot higher than yours!

OP posts:
CJCW17 · 02/12/2022 16:11

mine Are significantly different to last year where I wasn’t having periods at all!
I had a scan which is where they officially diagnosed PCOS, I’ve got my “day 21” blood test on the 12th, so I’ll be interested to see what it says. And then my review 2 days later! (Secretly I’m hoping that I fall this month but I know that won’t happen 😂)

Anyone want to join on the TWW??
2022TTCBaby1 · 04/12/2022 20:32

Interesting. Did you say you have been prescribed something which is why your levels have changed so much??

Keeping all things crossed on this cycle for you!
I am waiting on my appointment with the fertility clinic but hoping i fall soon so i can say 'i dont need your help' haha

I am holding out testing and symptom spotting. Trying to ignore every little twinge 😂
May test next sunday which would put me at 11/12dpo but i think itll be negative anyway

How is everyone holding up this cycle??

OP posts:
2022TTCBaby1 · 07/12/2022 10:02

8 dpo and no symptoms at all, not even the usual ones i have been getting on the lead up to AF.

Made me miserable :(

Maybe that’s a good sign ;)

CJCW17 · 07/12/2022 11:41

@2022TTCBaby1 no, I wasn’t prescribe anything at the time. I do however take myo insitol so that’s the only thing I can think is changing it!

you’re not out till AF comes, I’m just taking it one day at a time this month. I’ve not done any testing or tracking so have no idea where I am!

2022TTCBaby1 · 07/12/2022 12:20

@summerchild92 i wont get my hopes up haha

@CJCW17 ohh ok maybe thats helped then!

I also am trying to obssess this month. AF due monday or tuesday soooo will wait and see

Maybe might test sunday haha

summerchild92 · 07/12/2022 14:44

I’ve just finished my period + finished taking letrozole for this cycle.
Also got OPKs in the post today so I’ll be testing for ovulation for the next few months (got 100 opks haha so it should keep me busy haha).
