Hi ladies,

who wants to join for the tww? I had peak fertility on 25/02/23. So I think I may have ovulated 26/02/23.

now in the tww.

who wants to join?

I’m TTC#2, month 8 of TTC this time. 16 months TTC #1.

I can’t say I’m feeling particularly hopeful. I’m used to the disappointment (again), sadly.

@Floralsandsmiles ow yeah :( I do know that feeling all too well when you just feel it in yourself it's not the month, it will be eventually though we just have to keep going 💕

I originally said I was going to wait until Friday but now tempted to do tomorrow at 11dpo, see how I feel I guess xx

Got my fingers crossed for you darling!! Xxx

Piglet34 · 13/04/2023 07:54

@Freya8 awww I feel you this journey is so tough! How you feeling today?

I did a test today at 12dpo and BFN so think I'm most likely out this month 🙄 at least I have my referral appointment on Monday with gynaecologist hopefully get some answers about this spotting!

Freya8 · 13/04/2023 08:11

@Piglet34 hey babes awh man tho dont count yourself out out until af! But yeh i know wat u mean it seems everyone round us gets bfp at 9dpo so by time we get to 12dpo we are out! Heres hoping ur appointment will give you answers!! Fingers crossed for u. I felt so sick yest an took thee worst headache going so def think af is comin now. I havent tested i jus bought a pack of boots early ones as everyone is sayin they r good. Im not gonna lie i feel lik a twat for sayin this wen really am only starting out ttc but jeez i dont know if i can keep goin with these emotions. Its mentally draining lik am on the verge of breakdown thinkin ahead xxx

Piglet34 · 13/04/2023 08:56

@Freya8 thank you 💕 of course your allowed to feel how you feel no matter how long it's been, it's still pretty early for me too only cycle 4 but still just so bored of constantly thinking about it. Really hope you get some good news when you test on Saturday! Whenever I get sad about it not being my month I always just try and think of the things I'll be able to do instead, like now I'll be able to have a few drinks for my friends 30th next weekend etc and my brother in laws wedding is also coming up. Obviously would much rather be preg but got to try and switch the emotions in my head xx

Freya8 · 13/04/2023 18:11

@Piglet34 @Floralsandsmiles so today ive been really unwell again girls like headache were i cannot see and so so bokey. Im still doin my opk strips and there fuckin climbin again... i cannot do this again 😫 how is my body not frickin ovulating the first time round in a cycle??? Cannot cope literally burst into tears there sorry for bothering yous but wat am i lacking in? Like do i need to be on more vits xx

Piglet34 · 13/04/2023 20:03

@Freya8 ow so sorry you're feeling unwell again hun :( LH does rise and fall a bit in general throughout you cycle so the OPKs going up doesn't necessarily mean ovulation again. I have actually read a few threads recently where LH rising has meant a BFP so who knows! Are you still waiting to Sat to test? Hope you can get some answers this weekend 💕

Freya8 · 13/04/2023 20:21

@Piglet34 might cave and test tomorro at 13dpo. Just in panic mode thinkin my gawd if it happens again n then sure its outa my control anyways. Dont think i am preg like as had abso zero symtoms the whole way thru that tww there until yest n today with really bad headaches jus were it makes ya feel ill almost. Im genuinely scared to test cuz i dont wana see the bfn xxx

Piglet34 · 14/04/2023 09:25

@Freya8 I know it is such a scared feeling to do a test! How are you feeling this morn ? X

Freya8 · 14/04/2023 09:53

@Piglet34 hey woke up with same headache that hasnt shifted now in 3 days tabs in me now an its barely liftin it. Did a few gags but no sick. Tested this morn hubby thinks he can see a vvvvvvf line but naw gotta be realistic its nout. Cramps all cranked up last night and i feel af is jus about to be monsterous given i havent had a real one in yrs. How r u doin? Any sign? Xx

Piglet34 · 14/04/2023 11:58

@Freya8 Oww , so rubbish you're feeling so bad again! Hmm interesting about the test, usually DHs are the one saying they can't see a line! Do you have a pic? My brown spotting has turned more red this morn so I think AF will come tomorrow or Sunday , but I kind of knew that anyway! Seeing friends this weekend so at least that will take my mind of it xx

Freya8 · 14/04/2023 12:39

@Piglet34 yup heres pic but lik iv tried darkenin it n it isnt there. Iv jus wiped ther n theres cm with a touch of brown in so i guess that's the start of af then teamed with the cramps n headaches.

Piglet34 · 14/04/2023 17:16

@Freya8 hmm yeah that is hard to tell! I feel like I can see a shadow but maybe just an indent as can't see colour in that pic? Rubbish about the brown CM though :( I hope you feel a bit better and manage to have a nice weekend ! Xxxx

Freya8 · 14/04/2023 17:24

@Piglet34 yeh see i think he was seein that were as me reading all these threads i know all about indents n evaps. Put a pad on to judge this here n its literally 1 spot of tan lookin cm. So when ur recording this is today day 1 of my period? Hava fab weekend think we all deserve it lol xxx

@Freya8 my AF also came Friday night in the end and has been a painful weekend! Hope you got a bit of relief in the end 💕 and totally fair taking a break from here, now it's just the boring old wait to next O xxx

Freya8 · 17/04/2023 13:38

@Piglet34 awhh were all caught by af together then! Like it was a relief wen i seen it but now on cd4 n actually says to my hubby this morn jeez all we do is wait .. n wait lmao n wait some more after that how did ur app go today xxx

Piglet34 · 17/04/2023 14:02

@Freya8 yep we are the same again! I am also CD4 and think I will wait until CD10 before I start doing the OPKs and stuff. I have also bought the fertilily to try this cycle! I know it really is so much waiting around. Not had the appt yet but it's this evening!

Freya8 · 17/04/2023 14:12

@Piglet34 oooh exciting iv read good reviews about that cup!! Im jus gonna test on the easy at home strips everyday as they are cheap. Hoping all my body needed was a reset with its first period. If we dont catch this time round then i will look into other things we can be doin. Best of luck for ur appointment later let us know how u get on! 😊 xxx

Piglet34 · 17/04/2023 21:22

@Freya8 yeah, as horrible as AF is it must feel nice that you finally got it and now this cycle can start fresh! My appointment was okay, they basically definitely think my spotting is caused by my cervical ectropion so they have treated that by cauterising it. Would be great if it is just that as it doesn't affect TTC but I still have this feeling it's something else, I tried to push for a scan but they said no :/ just a waiting game now to see if the spotting still happens this cycle as if it does still happen then it can't just be the cervical thing if they treated it!

Freya8 · 18/04/2023 06:42

@Piglet34 hey babes i had a cervical erosion dunno if thats the same thing as you?? It burst on its own i would have only spotted when i had sex. Tho sayin that i was on the pill that never gave me a period so .. could hav well spotted if natural period. Least they burnt that off for you so thats a positive step!! I hate the way drs are very .. like they know best? When we know our own bodies almost? Lol well i dont know mine lmaooooooo! Heres to cd5 lmao 🤣 xxx

Freya8 · 19/04/2023 19:25

@Piglet34 jus wondering wat the normal lh level is? So as my pill made this all so unpredictable iv been testing every day regardless so as not to miss any surges my level tonight is 0.44? Like is this normal for cd6?

Piglet34 · 20/04/2023 15:50

@Freya8 sorry I had a few days of the threads so only just saw these! Yeah cervical erosion is another name for the same thing that I have, annoyingly the treatment causes spotting for like a week so I've still got that but hoping it goes in time for ovulation!

Yeah I think that level is normal for CD6, we always have LH in our system that fluctuates throughout the cycle. It's only the definite peak that really means anything can go up and down randomly around that time xx

Freya8 · 22/04/2023 09:33

@Piglet34 morning jus droppin in to ask you how u are doin? Wat we on now cd9? Were doin the smep this month started on cd6 so done cd8 too lmao this will get boring fast lmao 🤣 so yeh jus carry on with this every other bloody day dtd until i get a positive opk... wait to u see that not happenin this month jus to piss me off more lol xxx ps u were right about the fluctuating lh mine jus keeps goin up n down xxx

Piglet34 · 23/04/2023 16:53

@Freya8 hey! Yeah all good, I forgot to start testing this morn so will start tomorrow instead which should be cd11 I think. After I had the silver nitrate on my cervix we cant DTD while it heals but think we can tonight so should still be okay for this month. Yeah Ino what you mean SMEP is tiring! You seeing any change to your OPKs yet? Xx
