There’s not much to update on from me.

CD21 and CD22 I had really severe cramps. My heart rate also spiked a lot. I had given up using OPKs at this point as there had been no sign of a peak and I was expecting to ovulate earlier as I usually have a 30 day cycle. I think I’m best assuming that I ovulate later in my cycle than I thought.

Since then I’ve been fatigued and nauseated but BFN today (CD28).

When I was pregnant with DD I didn’t get a positive test until CD31 though and that was a faint line on a FRER so I’m still holding on to some hope!

Am I imagining things?! A faint line?

@behappy1736 I can definitely see a line! Tentative congratulations!

@Bigfamilylife thank you!

Hi all!

im currently TTC baby number 3 - I’ve had 2 early miscarriages in both January and February! I tried using opk sticks this month however the results were so varied I wasn’t sure I was using them properly. I do think I’ve ovulated though however I seem to get sore nipples after ovulation? Does anyone else get this?

I think around 9-10 maybe ? I had a positive OPK on Sunday 19th feb

behappy1736 · 02/03/2023 10:19

I have to go to work and my husband isn't home until later I don't know how I am going to be able to concentrate 😳
I can't quite believe it, I thought the tests may be evaps as they are Amazon 10miu cheapies but I think we may have been blessed on our first month of trying 🌟 It took us over 14 months to conceive with our first so I really was not expecting this.

I know positive results can cause sadness for many so I write this post with lots of love and sending baby dust to all. From Experience please don't give up, your time WILL come 🥰🥰🥰

@sb86 understood. Cramping? Ive not heard of that before during pregnancy. Why does it happen?

@behappy1736 and @Bigfamilylife wow congratulations you two ! amazing news, i hope your lines progress wonderfully onto healthy pregnancies. Exciting times : )

@Aquarius93 if your cycles are 30 days on average then it is definitely too early to test. You might be implanting right now. Best to wait until the day you're overdue your AF to be sure. Easier said than done, I know. Hoping you find some things to distract you over the next couple of days? Maybe a short trip away or a nice meal?

@2021lady isnt it just :( how many dpo are you now?

@jd90 fingers crossed youll feel better from your nausea. Apparently anything citrus like lemons and limes are meant to make you feel a bit less ill. Sounds like your cycles are back on track, is that right? That's a very good sign if so.

@CN1126 hello and welcome. I usually don't feel anything around ovulation time but the last couple of months ive been getting cramps. Every body is different however, that is probably yours telling you in its unique way what is going on. Do you use clearblue opks?
