TTC again end of Feb beginning of March

[Ks2023]

Hi. We been TTC for some time already and no luck. Just waiting now AF arrive any time tomorrow or day after and then we will try again. Anyone would like to join this group and we well do it all together as it’s so hard and mentally stressful and my husband don’t understand why I’m stressing so much that sooner or later it will happen (I wish it’s so easy) may be someone have tips 😆 I just need some support for the next 4 weeks of OPK checking, BBT, charting ect

@JJ2023 - I can see a bit of a faint line 🤞🏼 maybe try to wait a few days before testing again? (If you can!)

I know exactly how you feel, I’m also now officially in period week so trying my hardest not to test before Sunday but we will see.

@Beckyc23 thanks for responding, appreciate it! I’m going to wait and test again on Weds when AF due (if it doesn’t arrive) and for now not getting ahead of myself and just telling myself it’s an indent.

It really is so difficult to hold out and not test isn’t it! Keep us updated x

I see a faint line there. Give yourself a couple of days and test again ❤️

@JJ2023 i also see a faint line praying it’s a positive for you - let us know 🤞🏼

I’m in my TWW a trying sooo hard to stay chill but I’m so excited/nervous to test. Every month I say I won’t test early but it’s sooo hard not to.
My periods seem to be a bit longer than usual as AF always arrived CD 27/28. But last month I was 12 days late. This month I ovulated CD18 and natural cycles is telling me period would be due 8th of March. I’m thinking that’s a really short time from ovulation what do you all think? Should I test on the 8th or wait to be a few days late? 🙏🏼🤞🏼🙏🏼

Hi, TTC came off the pill at the start of November. Period is 2 days late. 5 dpo in the evening I came over really sick feeling and then was sick I also had a bad tummy. Has anyone experienced this around implantation time?

I feel sick today and so hot also having vivid dreams and today nipples are tender, I’ve taken two pregnancy tests. 1 clear blue ultra early and one cheap one both negative! Feel like I’m imagining symptoms because I want to be pregnant

Thanks @madeofcodes and @EllieBelly93 I’ll keep everyone updated!

@EllieBelly93 natural cycles usually gets my period dates spot on or within a couple of days, but I guess it just depends on how regular you are etc. It’s so difficult to not test especially when you get super close to the AF due date! I am probably not the best person for this advice seeing as I have tested two days before AF due 😂

Morning everyone.

Just wondering is anyone else just constantly waiting for the symptoms to kick in before testing in the hope it's a sticky little bean? I am! 2 MC's this last year so know exactly what to expect and every time in the waiting zone (doesn't it all just feel like such a long ass waiting zone!) im just waiting for the tender boobs, vivid dreams, constipation and tugging feeling in the lower tummy to give me an idea. Not got a good feeling for this month for me I'm sure - AF due this weekend I think. Thinking of you all because this is such a difficult time when you're desperate for a baby. 💕

Think no luck this month again 😭

AF is due tomorrow and my BBT has dropped today to 36.40 since ovulation I’ve been 36.50-68 :( drop in temp usually means not enough progesterone and AF is on her way xx

@Infinitebows I’m with you, constantly hoping and praying for a sticky little bean. AF due tomorrow but I’m not feeling so positive as my BBT is low this morning which usually happens before AF makes an appearance. It’s also torture as since we’ve been trying I’ve had sore/sensitive boobs for around a week before AF/ a week after ovulation so it gives me hope then AF comes along 🙄 xxx

@EllieBelly93
It could still happen though - I have my fingers crossed for you that AF doesn't come tomorrow. It's a cruel game this TTC business. Have you been trying long? Xxx

Thanks everyone for responding when I shared my 8 DPO test yesterday. Today it’s so much clearer and clearblue has confirmed it too. AF was due tomorrow.

Today I have a small amount of brownish/light pink spotting which makes me nervous. I previously had the same when I conceived last time, it was also a small amount when wiping but then stopped, but a week or so after that I had an early loss.

So basically I’m pregnant but I just feel numb 🥺

@JJ2023 congratulations! I know it’s hard to process the news… it could be old implementation bleeding. Wishing the best outcome for you 💕

@Infinitebows / @EllieBelly93 - I am really trying not to symptom spot as it’s so early for me but I’ve got a bit of a runny nose, heavy/sore boobs, feel a bit sick and had tingles… all could all be period related or I’m not well but you cant help to hope that it’s the thing you are wishing for. All very similar symptoms to my previous early loss so also very anxious.

Really trying not the test before the weekend when AF is due but I’m tempted with every morning wee 🤣

I need serious help to keep me sane this week

@Beckyc23 heres hoping none of us get a visit from AF this weekend. Im not tempted to test because I fear the disappointment too much (I always wait until Im a few days late) I've never wanted those achey boobs back so much! 😂🤞🏼 xx

Congratulations! I think sometimes you want something so much that when it does happen, your mind can’t believe it. Hence the numb feeling. I’m only on CD3 and already wishing this week away so I can start tracking ovulation next week. It’s very sad I know that I’m wishing my life away!

@Infinitebows im still hanging on to the tiniest bit of hope. We started trying in November for baby number 1 and you? X

@JJ2023 huge congratulations! Try to enjoy the moment and manifest a super healthy pregnancy you got this 😍

@EllieBelly93 we've been trying for a few years now, had a MC last June (8 weeks) and another end of Jan/early Feb (7 weeks) I've been doing the clear blue sticks since last MC and DTD on smiley days so fingers crossed. Just hate all this waiting then comes the anticipation. Need to get my positive pants on and hope it'll happen again soon xx

AF made an appearance this morning so sad. Tried smep for the first time so was holding out for hope. Hopefully next time 🤞🏼

Ohh @EllieBelly93 how awful for AF to turn up. Fingers crossed for next time 🤞🏻

@EllieBelly93 😢 hope you're okay, the disappointment is unreal. Feel for you xx

Sorry to hear that @EllieBelly93.
AF due on Sunday for me, I've had cramps this morning that I usually get on D1 but only spotting...usually AF arrives full flow for me (sorry TMI). Think it's too late to be implantation though and the cramps were quite intense so think I'm most likely out this time too.

So sorry @EllieBelly93 . I’ve just come on for a handhold. Yet another friend has announced on social media that they’re expecting and I’ve just burst into tears. Absolutely irrational but I’m so jealous/sad/fed up now. I’m not a jealous person normally. 😭

@Dreamer88 - thank you lovely, hoping and praying for you too to make your announcement soon too! I absolutely know the feeling im usually so super chilled and never been jealous of anyone or anything but I too cant help it, feel like everyone is pregnant around me x

@NoodleQueen90 - hang on in there you may get a wonderful surprise, let us all know either way lovely x

@uop21 @Infinitebows absolutely onto next month we go trying to hard to stay positive, going to try the SMEP again this month and trying fertility reflexology for the first time too. Sending you all lots of baby dust x

Thanks @EllieBelly93, AF arrived properly last night so I'm out this month. Gutted but it's only cycle 2 of trying so it hasn't been long. On to cycle 3!
My DSis recently got engaged and they're planning a wedding abroad..she vaguely knows we're trying at some point soon and messaged to ask if we would be able to come to the wedding in Oct next year...I had no idea what to say. On one hand it's my sister, I can't miss her wedding but also don't know what will or won't have happened by then 😬
