April TTC thread

[Babyhopeful23]

Hoping we all get BFP and sticky babies in this months cycle.

Its CD 1 for me on my 2nd cycle TTC, and it will be my first month tracking OPKs. So I need loads of tips on when to begin and how to track.

Baby dust 👶

@buckingmad mine doesn't even seem to have gone up by 0.5 so not sure if I just haven't ovulated this month.

This TTC thing is so stressful isn't it!

How is everyone doing so far? Are we all in the TWW? I’m not sure where I am TBH. I had ewcm at CD21 which was the 21st April so I’m now CD 26 and AF was predicted to arrive on the 30th. I’ll hold out to test until Monday.
Ive actually come down with an illness, I have a sinus infection, sore throat, couch etc. not covid but I feel awful. Visited GP and I am now on antibiotics. Not sure if my mood is low because I’m sick but I just don’t think this is going to be a successful month!!!

@Babyhopeful23 firmly in the 2WW now, AF is due on Monday. I'm not confident at all about this month. After my OPK surge I didn't have a temperature rise for ages and even now it's only 36.43 so not hopeful at all.

I haven't even done a cheeky test this month as I'm just so convinced it isn't to be this month, and last month I did loads 😂

Sending baby dust to you all!

Hi! Wondering if I can join. Currently 10-12DPO (I think more likely to be 10/11) I’ve been having some shadows on wondfo’s but not strong enough to get in a photo. I look a FRER this morning and it’s incredibly faint. Unsure if it’s an indent.

@Swiftie12 I can't see it but I'm on my work computer so can't zoom in. I never use FRERs as hear so many bad stories of indents. I've always found the boots early tests to be the best. I've used them and got a faint positive that was confirmed with a digital and then last month wasn't pregnant and never saw a hint of a line.

Hi ya’ll.
I took a break from the forum as was in a huff after my last BFN.
I’m back in the TWW, 3dpo now.
Hope you are all doing well and hoping we will see some BFP soon xx

Hi ladies, please can I join! I’m TTC#1, cycle 2. My BBT chart is looking really good at 9dpo but it’s my first month charting so nothing to compare it to. Think I had an implantation dip at 7dpo as it dropped by 0.45 and went right back up, but I know that’s not always an indicator! I’m having twinges around my lower stomach and even in my vagina… is that a normal thing? Don’t normally get any pre-menstrual cramps so Again I don’t know what to compare it to!

Baby dust and love to all x

@sashastuck are you finding that your BBT is continuing to go up post ovulation or is it staying fairly static after your ovulation jump?

@miniworry today is the highest it’s been all cycle at 9dpo, but previous temps have hovered within 0.1 since 3dpo. Will be interesting to see if it goes up again tomorrow.

@sashastuck My temps are usually the highest on 9-12 dpo

Just to update! Pray it sticks around! 12dpo and my temp has stayed elevated. Sending baby dust to everyone x

@sashastuck huge congratulations!! What fab news 💞

@sashastuck congratulations 💕

Congratulations!! 💕

Looking to see if anybody else has had this experience before? AF came on Tuesday along with cramps etc and this was a normal period. I’m only cycle day 5 and noticed quite a bit of ewcm so I did an ovulation test just now and it’s so dark! I logged it on natural cycles and it’s coming up as positive which is so strange. My cycle is around 27 days and I usually get a positive opk around days 12/13/14. I did a quick pregnancy test there with not much pee and during the day and that was negative. It’s just so strange.

Thank you for the congratulations xx

@Swiftie12 how did you fair I. The end? My tests are like this every month, I’m 12dpo today I think and these two this morn but I’m sure their both indents
