I have pcos and ovulate later in my cycle between cd18-cd22 I generally have a 31-35 day cycle....

Cycle 20 for us this cycle

I won't be testing until 29th April.... that seems so far away 😂😂😂

Iwas very hit and miss with my BBT this month I'm going to make sure I'm on point with it this cycle and I'll be starting my OPKS from cd 16.

I've ordered some myo-inositol that I'm going to start from today and I've just ordered some preseed and we will DTD every other day from cd 14 upto cd 18 then every day till cd 24....

Well that's the plan anyways 😁

@Bellabeemarie thank you, I'll keep you posted! Enjoy your break from it all, house renovations are exhausting - we're in that boat too!

Bellabeemarie · 13/04/2023 16:44

@Luhou yes please do keep us upto date 🤞 I'm definitely going to make the most of this relaxed month 😌

@Bellabeemarie Ah! Enjoy your break :)

3dpo here. I'll test at 10dpo and then be ordering my IVF meds when I get a negative. Hopefully they'll arrive by the 25th 😅

Farmgirl12 · 13/04/2023 16:53

@Bellabeemarie Thanks :) It was pretty poor timing so I think we may have dtd too late but I guess I'll find out next week.

Mountainview8 · 14/04/2023 08:25

Hi all, I'm 7dpo and have noticed my resting heart rate has increased and my cervix was so high this morning I couldn't reach it. Both of these have been signs in my previous pregnancies but unfortunately they were miscarriages so 🤞🤞this time

TheBirdintheCave · 14/04/2023 08:46

@Mountainview8 Not long now til you can test :D

Bellabeemarie · 14/04/2023 13:30

Hey all, I know I'm a bit late to the party but mind if I join? I'm 7dpo and driving myself a bit mental.

I am feeling some kindred spirits here as I also have 35ish day cycles and ovulate later (cd19-22).

We're on cycle 4 of TTC #2 and DD is 20 months, and took 15 months/10 irregular cycles to get, so at the start of a long road probably. DD was a haaaard baby so I'm simultaneously desperate and terrified of number 2.

Luhou · 15/04/2023 06:52

Think I'm probably out this month, another BFN this morning for me at 3 days before period is due.

Dissapointed :( want AF out the way now. I'm going to try ovulation testing next month? I know nothing about this - what's everyones experience of ovulation testing?

Hope somebody will get a BFP on this thread soon! Xx

Un7breakable · 15/04/2023 07:15

@Luhou I use the easy at home ones and the premum app and find them very useful. Without there's a few months I would have completely missed my fertile window as I ovulated late/early.

First month start testing about CD7, once your readings start increasing test twice a day. Some people recommend testing in pm, I do am then pm when double testing.

Be aware that the app sometimes flips the image or reads wrong so double check.

Fingers crossed next month is your month.

Luhou · 15/04/2023 09:38

@Un7breakable thank you, that is really useful. Anybody used a Ferti Lily?

Luhou · 15/04/2023 09:38

@Un7breakable thank you, that is really useful. Anybody used a Ferti Lily?

Yes I use one. Worked first time after eight months of nothing but then I had a miscarriage in December.

Luhou · 15/04/2023 12:07

@TheBirdintheCave sorry to hear about your misscarriage. I may give the Ferti Lily a try.

Bellabeemarie · 15/04/2023 16:53

@PintOfWinePlz of course 🥰 welcome

I'm 3dpo but timing has been so crap this cycle so I'm chilled this 2ww 😌

I use opks I like knowing when my body's gearing up to ovulation xxxx

OP posts:
PintOfWinePlz · 15/04/2023 18:37

@Luhou I'm the opposite with opks, can't seem to get them to work for me even when my ovusense has then confirmed ovulation so I just avoid now because it was stressing me out!

Luhou · 15/04/2023 19:14

Thanks @PintOfWinePlz I think that's why I haven't used them previously as they just look confusing! I'll give them a go and see how I get on.

Bellabeemarie · 16/04/2023 09:14

Morning ladies, so I'm officially 3 or 4 dpo I didn't temp over the crucial days so I'm waiting for my ovusense to confirm ov atm I hope I'm 3dpo because if not we had sex a day too late looool ah well I think because In my head I think weve definitely missed our slot this month im not looking out for symptoms or anything and I feel very relaxed not the usual 2ww overthinking 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wheres everyone upto with their cycle atm anyone due to test?

@Luhou have u tested again xxxx

OP posts:
Luhou · 16/04/2023 10:58

@Bellabeemarie I tested yesterday which I thought was 3 days before my AF was due, but it was actually 4. BFN. So think I'm out this cycle. I won't be testing now unless AF is a day or so late. Best of luck this cycle! 😊

Bellabeemarie · 16/04/2023 11:17

@Luhou aw I hope you was just a little to early to pick up a bfp hun, af due 27th I wont be testing till 27th at the earliest because I'm not hopeful this month and I refused to buy IC when I got my opks so I didn't test xx

OP posts:
PintOfWinePlz · 16/04/2023 11:38

@Bellabeemarie I'm jealous of your relaxed month! Waiting for confirmation is annoying though! We dtd on o day, two days before and four days before and I was also in a hot tub and drank a lot of wine for my mum's 60th so probably ruined it for myself... but I'm still driving myself demented.

@Luhou fingers crossed it was just a bit early but I hate the wee secret hope so totally get not testing until AF late!

Luhou · 16/04/2023 12:26

Thanks ladies, I'll keep you posted!

Bellabeemarie · 16/04/2023 13:52

@PintOfWinePlz awww but you've got to lead some kind of a normal life while going through this crazy ttc journey, it takes its tole and it's so easy to put your life on hold until you get your bfp... one thing I learnt from my other pregnancies was to enjoy the not being pregnant time because u cant do sweet f all when it comes, well for me I'm so violently sick until about 30 weeks so I dont cut anything out until I get a bfp, I drank a ltr bottle of baileys on thur night lol and were purchasing a hot tub for the garden when its completed in june so I'll be using that a few nights a week. I dont drink a lot tbf before thur I last had a drink NYE lol but when I fancy it I have or do what ever I want xxx

Bellabeemarie · 16/04/2023 13:53

@Luhou I'll keep a eye out over the week xxx
