I’m 6dpo but not sure really because I have had what feels like wetness since ov

Hdhhdidi · 06/06/2023 08:11

My boobs are not sore either

Hdhhdidi · 06/06/2023 08:13

90mamabear · 06/06/2023 11:07

When I check my cervix it just feels sort of wet no cm or anything and cervix seems to be med where I can reach it, ahh good luck to you too! I’ve already done a test I know I know but usually at this time I have like discharge that’s sort of resembles bits of tissue paper if that makes sense

Hdhhdidi · 06/06/2023 11:17

Another weird thing is I’ve had sweaty palms for past few days don’t know what that’s about x

ThelastRolo20 · 06/06/2023 13:09

@90mamabear fingers crossed for you! I realised that later this month (22nd) I'm off to get some low grade dyskaryosis checked out following my last smear test. I'm not worried about that as it's highly likely nothing sinister but I'm hoping that them poking my cervix doesn't disrupt this month's attempt! Luckily it's just after ovulation so there would have been no implanting by that point - but mentally trying to tell myself there's a chance it may not work this month. Being a woman is a nightmare sometimes - men have no idea!

90mamabear · 06/06/2023 15:40

@Hdhhdidi that might be thrush gal! I hope the palms are a sign for u. X x

@ThelastRolo20 thank you πŸ₯° p.s my last dc I had a smear during tww! πŸ˜ƒ I think a day before finding out !

ThelastRolo20 · 09/06/2023 17:35

@90mamabear hey how are you doing? Are you able to test soon? X

90mamabear · 09/06/2023 19:25

@ThelastRolo20 hey girl ! So annoying so I had another lh peak - darn pcos so I'm 4do - I ran out of stick so I'm praying that was my final peak and I definitely ovulated . I think I did as cm now dried up! I'm having really bad cramping which is unusual for me at this stage ! Lots of pulling and I've really sore nipples ! I'm actually starting to think I am potentially gonna get good news this month but who knows ! The wait is killing I hate these stupid long cycles ! ! I'm wondering though is there a chance I could be my original 7dpo and maybe have had lh that spiked again or something though as these symptoms seem pretty strong ! I did a super drug test today and bfn . But even tonight I have back cramps and definitely no pms yet. I'm really wondering is this my month but no idea what's going on the the lh! What about you πŸ₯° I think just incase I'm going to test on Sunday with frer. For my first peak and again on wed for the 2nd with frer what are your plans for testing ?lots of love x

@90mamabear I'm 4dpo too! Am also having a strange cycle, my LH rose really slowly over several days and then I got a peak in the morning
(which never happens) a few days ago, but my bbt had already risen by then? Which means I must have ovulated before LH peak? So bizarre. I'm going by bbt instead of LH which puts me at 4dpo.

Bizarrely I've had pink spotting today, and cramping the last few days. I never get ovulation bleeds so I doubt it's that, but it's waaay too early for implantation, so I don't know what's going on πŸ˜‚

For now, assuming we ovulated when we think we did, we're bang on TWW buddies πŸ˜‚πŸ₯°

90mamabear · 09/06/2023 20:54

@falsepositivenervous yayyy I'm so excited for us ! Lovely to be so close with ov days! Your cycle seems bizzare like mine ! I'm not sure where in UK you are but .. it's warm where I am at the moment and apparently it can reset cycles etc the sun exposure ! So I'm wondering is that it πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ. It seems like I have had multiple peaks of LH. So do you like me think that you had an LH peak after ov? When are you testing? I was 9 / 10 dpo when I got my bfp on frer last preg ! So thinking I'll test Sunday and then wed ! X x

falsepositivenervous · 09/06/2023 21:06

@90mamabear it is nice to have buddies for the wait isn't it πŸ₯°

I'm actually not in the UK I'm on the continent, but yes it's very warm and sunny here, and only in the last few weeks, so who knows it could be that!

I only had one peak of LH but a slow rise to it, but my temp had already increased by the time I got it. I'm wondering if I just ovulated before it peaked? I'm glad I insisted on dtd plenty in the days before I assumed it would happen πŸ˜‚

This month I decided to test LH every day after my period so I can make sure that I'm actually only getting one peak, and so far that's scratching the itch for testing πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I have a lot of cheapies at home so I can test on the same days as you just for fun :)

I have stage 4 endometriosis, I've not been diagnosed with PCOS, but I have a couple of the markers for it (relatively high AMH and multiple cysts on my ovaries), but not others, so I'm assuming I don't have it. So I don't think I can compare my LH pattern with yours unfortunately.

I started daydreaming today that I maybe I'm like 6dpo instead and I'm having twins which is why I have this spotting πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ (don't worry I haven't lost the plot I know this isn't the case!).

90mamabear · 09/06/2023 21:13

@falsepositivenervous I do things like this all of the time ! I dream all sorts of strange things πŸ˜†... which never come to anything ! Ha ! .. remind me is this ttc dc1 for you? Sounds great to test on same days 😁! I honestly keep panicking thinking what if I Havnt actually ovulated this month and this is my crazy hormones giving me 'signs' lol!! Wouldn't suprise me ! But trying to stay positive ! Excited for us ! Everything crossed gal x x

@falsepositivenervous do you take any medication for endometriosis? I don't know a lot about it - pardon my questions . X x

falsepositivenervous · 09/06/2023 21:24

@90mamabear this would be my first child but second pregnancy, last year I lost mine at 12 weeks. I wasn't trying then I wasn't looking out for all the symptoms, but I do know that I had implantation bleeding shortly before my period was due to start, because I had an appointment with the gynaecologist for two days before my period started for a scan, and I was so annoyed cause I thought my period would come early and I'd have to cancel the scan πŸ˜‚ I also had quite a bit of cramping, which is why I was convinced my period was coming.

I don't take any medication for the endo, i was on the pill for years to control the cysts (they ruptured a lot which had me in hospital a few times), now I just manage it with painkillers (thank god for the special ones. Mefenamic acid and minalgin have been a godsend!) and acupuncture! Acupuncture has been without a doubt the biggest help to me, the only problem is it's very expensive :/ I've reduced the amount of painkillers I take by about 95% since I started doing acupuncture (and other TCM) regularly! It's crazy how much it's helped! I just wish now it would help me get pregnant πŸ˜‚

I was reading about this visualisation/meditation course you can buy, where you have a different session to do every day where you visualise the egg and what it's doing at different parts of the cycle. It sounds really nice (I know hippy dippy, but it sounds like a nice way to relax) that I'm thinking about getting, but it's also not cheap and I'd rather put that money towards acupuncture instead πŸ˜…

90mamabear · 09/06/2023 23:23

@falsepositivenervous I am so so sorry for the loss of your little baby. ❀️. So hard. I really want to hear soon of your lovely bfp xx

Acupuncture sounds awesome! I absolutely love reflexology!! Have you tried it ? It can be super helpful for fertility ! I love all the hippy stuff ! Ha!!

I'm trying currently to find a good book to take my mind off tww..and what do I go and choose .. a fertility book πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ slap me πŸ˜‚ x x

@90mamabear well done for keeping track of two potential ovulations! Fingers crossed for you in the morning, let us know how the test goes. I'm likely ovulating next weekend so I've got aaages to go yet - got a busy week at work though so that'll keep me occupied xx
