Hi all! As the title suggests, I have set this up as a space for those of us who are TTC and in that long wait between ovulation and when AF is due!
So, to kick us off... I have been TTC #2 since November. Had one chemical in that time and now well into the TWW with AF due on Tuesday! After spending a lot of money on early tests / having the disappointment of a chemical I am now avoiding early testing and will instead wait until AF is late, but zero judgement on anyone who likes to test early - I totally get the urge!

Look forward to hearing from others who are also on their TTC journey!

Hey ladies. How are you all getting on? Sorry to all those that got their visit from AF. Hope you’re all doing well and feeling more positive as your fertile window approaches.
@peaky297 did AF arrive for you?

Anonhopingforbaby · 21/03/2023 17:47

Ladies I think I'm driving myself insane

AF was very very light, and only lasted for half a day. Then, this happened this morning. Totally in shock, I don’t know what to do, I'm absolutely in disbelief

@Anonhopingforbaby lovely lines! Congratulations xx Your mini period was probably implantation?

I’ve got two stupidly faint lines on boots early tests (11dpo and 12dpo) and then a shadow on a cheapie. Counting down to when I can go to bed so I can test in the morning and hopefully see something more. I’ve purposefully not gone out and bought more expensive tests today as want to wait till 14dpo.

Thank you!!

I suppose it must have been! I would've never known if I didn't just chance it this morning

GemLou88 · 21/03/2023 19:59

@Anonhopingforbaby thats amazing news. Congratulations! Bet you can’t believe after trying for so long. Wishing you a happy an healthy pregnancy x

sounds promising @buckingmad fingers crossed for a darker line for you tomorrow x

Angelselevenx · 21/03/2023 20:19

Can I join? Ovulated today going by peak tests and temping so entering the TWW tomorrow 🤞🏼

GemLou88 · 23/03/2023 20:09

Welcome @Angelselevenx hows your tww going?

So I’m on cylce 5 of TTC baby 2. Came off the pill the end of October. Cycle length has been varying from 36 days to last month was 29 days. I haven’t LH tested this cycle so far but I’ve been logging my BBT, and due to a spike in temp, 2 apps are saying I ovulated on CD10. I’m not too sure I have. Can’t remember any EWCM or ovulation pain. Anyone temping had this before?

Thanks @GemLou88 I'm 2dpo now so just trying to not let it consume my brain too much!

I'm not sure re ovulating without symptoms, could it be that you just didn't notice them? I'm only on cycle 2 TTC and only the first month in tracking my BBT x

Evening ladies!

Sorry that I've been AWOL - since Sunday I've been bedridden with the nastiest bout of tonsillitis I've ever had (and I've had it many times over the years!). AF decided to arrive right in the midst of it all too 🙈😂 thankfully feeling a bit better now thanks to antibiotics.

Where to start... How is everyone?

@Anonhopingforbaby huge congratulations!! What a lovely surprise! How are you feeling?

@Angelselevenx welcome! Look forward to following your journey!

@GemLou88 the OG! How are you doing? How do you find BBT? I'm tempted to try it!

@honeybee1986 how are you doing now? Hope you're ok!

6dpo for me 🙏

Anonhopingforbaby · 24/03/2023 08:24

Thank you! I'm mainly just tired and getting occasional waves of nausea but I'm feeling okay!

Angelselevenx · 24/03/2023 09:02

Thanks @peaky297 hope you're feeling better now! I thought I was 3DPO today NC has changed my O day to CD22 which means I could only be 2DPO now. Plus I didn't DTD on CD22 which is annoying

Angelselevenx · 26/03/2023 07:55

How's everyone doing? @peaky297 @GemLou88 @Anonhopingforbaby

Ted0503 · 26/03/2023 11:23

I ended up going to the drs and they are going to do blood tests to test for pdg and Fhs hormones. They said to have the blood tests for 3 months 4 blood tests a month 😩). Has anyone else been through this before?

GemLou88 · 26/03/2023 11:25

Hey ladies. How you all doing? I’m still confused. From bbt, apps are saying I’m 7dpo but I still don’t think I’ve ovulated yet. Temp has been dropping too. Will start taking LH tests from today too see. I’m full of cold at the moment, shattered and achey.
@peaky297 im very new to bbt, but so far it’s been easy apart from this month. Hope you’re feeling better.
@Angelselevenx @Jennifer89 hows your tww going?
@Anonhopingforbaby how you feeling? Have you told many people yet?

Angelselevenx · 26/03/2023 11:27

@GemLou88 what CD are you? Being poorly could delay ovulation as well.

I'm 5DPO today, feel no different tbh 😅 trying to just wait and see if AF arrives next Saturday

GemLou88 · 26/03/2023 11:38

@Angelselevenx im on CD17. I’ve been ovulating between CD20-24. That’s why I’m thinking there must be something else that affected my bbt to make the app think it was ovulation

Angelselevenx · 26/03/2023 13:12

@GemLou88 have you got any photos of your graph? Deffo take LH tests to match against your BBT. Here's mine, I had a temp drop right when I got a positive LH and then temperature rose again. It could be that your body tried to but will go again between CD20-24

How long are your cycles? We O around the same time! I'm usually CD21 x

@GemLou88 does that make you 6dpo today? Sorry I've never used FF or premom for tracking BBT so just trying to work it out 🤣

Angelselevenx · 26/03/2023 14:59

@GemLou88 if it's going by what your graph says I think it's 6dpo/7dpo. Could it be that you ovulated but just didn't catch it on an LH

GemLou88 · 26/03/2023 15:14

@Angelselevenx apps are saying 7dpo today, ovulated on CD10. I could have missed it as i was just going to bbt this cycle. I guess time will tell 😂

Angelselevenx · 26/03/2023 15:15

@GemLou88 could it tie in with timing for an implantation dip? 🤞🏼

GemLou88 · 26/03/2023 15:21

@Angelselevenx i did have some slight cramping/pulling yesterday which I thought maybe was ovulation gearing up to happen. Implantation dip didn’t even cross my mind because I wasn’t convinced ovulation had happened, cycles have been on the longer side since coming off the pill but last cycle was 29 days. I’ll keep monitoring the temp and if it keeps rising maybe test in a few days and see

GemLou88 · 26/03/2023 15:21

@Angelselevenx thanks for looking at my charts, nice to get someone else’s input x
