Ovulation date 25th or 26th March - TWW thread

Hi ladies, who would like to join a TWW thread. My ovulation date is today or tomorrow ❤️

Month 9 TTC baby number 2.

I have a 1 year old who took 16 months to conceive.

I’m 29 and my hubs is 31. We know my husband has a fertility issue so we’re aware it could well be a long road ahead. Not that it makes TTC any more bearable. Every month is depressing when AF arrives!

Would love to share in the TWW with some others!

@TTCing I'm so sorry to hear this 😔. Praying for a sticky one for you this new cycle 🤞🏻x

Shutte · 10/04/2023 18:30

Thanks @Ttcmumma I will give it a go!

So sorry @TTCing , it’s so gutting when that happens, I wish you all the luck next month.

Mummy1502 · 10/04/2023 18:42

@TTCing so sorry, hope your okay as can be x

Stillwinston · 10/04/2023 18:43

Oh no @TTCing, I'm so sorry to hear that 😞 sending you lots of love ❤️

TTC53 · 10/04/2023 19:59

@TTCing my heart goes out to you. I'm so sorry to hear this.

@Shutte also sorry that af arrived. You've got the right idea though. I always reach for pizza and beer / wine on the first day of my cycle to have a mope. I use fertility friend and also pre mom for tracking my cycle.

@MK85 could it be that you've taken the temp at a different time this morning which is why its lower? I'm not the best at temping as I work shifts and as soon as I start to see it go down I stop taking it so I can't advise as to what it should be doing

TTCing · 10/04/2023 20:31

Thanks ladies ❤️ starting to worry if there’s something wrong with me now. 3 pregnancies and 2 losses. Do you think I have a medical reason or bad luck? 😔

TTC53 · 10/04/2023 20:59

@TTCing remind me, have you had any general fertility tests done? I'm led to believe that NHS won't begin investigations until 3 losses have occurred which makes me think it's just horrid, horrid luck for you. I'm sure this doesn't make it any easier for you, this moment in time. Have you thought about having a phone call with the gp to see if they can offer advice?

Ttcmumma · 10/04/2023 21:03

@TTCing unfortunately I also believe that NHS dont count chemicals in those 3 losses either. Which makes me believe they aren't likely due to something being wrong and more so bad luck? Apparently most women have chemical pregnancies in their lives that they go completely unaware of. So I guess it's the fact we are tracking and so aware of our bodies that makes us have to suffer such sad losses

Mummy1502 · 11/04/2023 08:05

I’m officially late! I spose I should go grab some tests today, although I keep thinking af is coming coz of the cramping x

Stillwinston · 11/04/2023 08:35

@Mummy1502 omg, definitely go get some tests! X

Stillwinston · 11/04/2023 08:36

@TTCing sadly I think @Ttcmumma is correct - I've had a few chemicals and when I spoke to the GP they said they didn't count it in terms of miscarriage numbers 😞 could you go for private tests? Hope you're doing ok xx

Mummy1502 · 11/04/2023 08:40

@Stillwinston will grab some this morning and get a good hold then test this afternoon, it’s gonna be a long wait! I’m just not getting my hopes up though still expecting to see af x

TTCing · 11/04/2023 08:44

I just feel like my heart has been ripped out. It’s just awful 😢

It’s so hard staying positive at this point. Especially when it takes me so long to conceive in the first place.

Thanks for your support, ladies.

@TTCing we totally understand, it's just so bloody hard 😞 I hope you're getting a chance to rest and process your loss ❤️🌈 we're all here to support and listen, sending big virtual hugs xxx

TTCing · 11/04/2023 09:03

Thank you @Stillwinston. I’m working today so just trying to keep myself busy. My cramps have been very painful this time and they made me feel so unwell last night. It’s definitely felt more physically painful this time, for some reason, as well as emotionally painful too.

What cycle day are you on now? It will be cycle day 2 for me today, so maybe we’ll be TWWing together again ❤️

Mummy1502 · 11/04/2023 09:13

@TTCing it really is heartbreaking isn’t, I feel like I went off the rails mentally after my chemical a couple of cycles back, I just couldn’t focus on anything else, I would cry all the time, then the cycle after that my af came on Mother’s Day! I’ve never felt so horrible, it takes time to heal even so early on, I started thinking something must be wrong with me etc, felt like a failure but once I got my head together and started to feel more positive I just kept telling myself it will happen when it happens and at the right time, it’s horrible that the doctors make you go through it 3 times before they even do anything! I was lucky and been referred to epu so if I fall pregnant again they will scan me early but even then that’s not until 6 weeks and with my chemicals I never made it to 6 weeks, my loss in November I went to 7 weeks, it’s always a worry until baby is in your arms, I really hope you feel better each day and get your positive soon x

Stillwinston · 11/04/2023 09:14

I'm cd2 as well @TTCing so we're exactly in sync!

Make sure you give yourself time to heal ❤️

Ttcdcno1 · 11/04/2023 09:33

@TTCing I’m so sorry 😢it’s such a tough journey. I started bleeding for my chemical on Christmas Day. Me and DH had planned out how we were going to hide everything from our parents not wanting to open up our little bubble just yet and then it happened anyway. One of mother nature’s crueler jokes I must admit🤦🏼‍♀️
Keep yourself busy but definitely allow yourself some time to heal❤️lots of virtual hugs sent your way.

I’m CD 5 now so not too far ahead of you 👍

TTCing · 11/04/2023 09:47

@Mummy1502 thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate it. I totally resonate with how you feel. It was terrible for me last time as I’d been TTC for over a year. It’s just so hard and impossible for people to understand if they haven’t experienced the same/similar.

I cried a lot yesterday but today, so far, just feeling really sad.

@Stillwinston i usually tend to ovulate on CD16 (I think). But I guess it may be different this cycle. Thank you ❤️

@Ttcdcno1 that must have been so terrible for you. With my first miscarriage, I started bleeding the day after my birthday 😢 thanks for your kindness xx

@TTCing your welcome, go easy on your self x

Mummy1502 · 11/04/2023 11:17

Omg ladies there’s a line!!!!!!!! X

Mummy1502 · 11/04/2023 11:29

All tests until now have been stark white! Should I be getting my hopes up? It is pink in colour in person, hard to get a pic, it’s a boots test couldn’t get any frer, I’m 1 day late for af, unless I ovulated later as didn’t test for ovulation this month x

@Mummy1502 I can see it!!! Definitely looks positive to me ❤️ maybe see if you can get a frer and test tomorrow to check on progression x

Ttcmumma · 11/04/2023 11:46

@Mummy1502 omg so happy for you! Definitely confirm with another test to be sure but looks positive 🤞🏻

Mummy1502 · 11/04/2023 11:51

@Stillwinston @Ttcmumma thankyou! I’ve managed to find a shop with frer so going to grab them now, will do one later purely coz I’m so impatient then one in the morning to check progression, I really hope this is a sticky one x
