Ovulation 26th/27th April - let’s TWW together

895 replies

TTCing · 26/04/2023 09:09

Hi ladies,

Month 10 of TTC #2. I had a chemical pregnancy last cycle.

I have a one year old daughter who took almost a year and a half to conceive. I previously had a chemical pregnancy not long before she was conceived.

Really hoping this cycle will bring good news ❤️

Please feel free to join if your ovulation is around 26th/27th April and/or AF due around 7th/8th/9th May.

Wishing luck to us all xx

@Freya8 i have never done bbt! I am obsessed enough! 😂

Plus I’d definitely forget anyway!

Okay so I have done BBT in the past, I stopped because it was just too much to keep up with. But, I often O'd day after peak. However, I would say I have definitely had cycles where I'm sure I have O'd later the same day as peak, albeit much later in the day. I get intense O pains so I tend to know 😂...

Don't blame you for not doing it tonight! Feel like I'm doing enough for all of us 😅😅

I really shud temp but im already obsessive about the LH lines and peeing on those wee sticks! I can only imagine wat i would be like with a thermometer and thinkin about implantation dips n all🙈 think the chemical last month has really made me feel like wow it actually doesnt even matter if u feel all the symptoms or get the faint line thee earliest you can as things go the way they will go regardless nothin u can do to stop them

Yea very true if it's not viable there's nothing we can do. I'm going to try my hardest to not early test this month and get my hopes up 🙈

@missmoosh i love the dedication!

@Daniki i really want to avoid testing early too 😂

I’m having one of those ‘TTC moments’ tonight. Someone I follow on Instagram announced her pregnancy when she was just past 12 weeks. I remember feeling so envious at the time thinking ‘why isn’t this me?’ Because we’d been trying about six months by the time she announced.

Anyway, the same said woman announced she’s now on maternity leave and is due in a couple of weeks…

It just made me feel so sad that someone has grown a whole full term baby in the amount of time I’ve been trying to conceive 😔

This journey is just rough, isn’t it?

So desperate to be pregnant. But know I’ll live in fear after having 2 miscarriages.

It's just horrible after loss, the anxiety is too much! 😩 but yes that's so difficult, my best friend and I were pregnant at the same time and her baby is now 6 weeks 🥹
Really is a rough ride and very lonely! X

@Daniki with my first miscarriage, my work colleague and I were ttc at the same time and we both found out we were pregnant. I was due a few days before her. But then I miscarried. It was very hard for me.

It really is so tough. Sorry you’ve been through similar ❤️

Yep it really is! Very bittersweet.

I'm on CD13 and no sign of a surge or anything but I ovulated in CD17 last time so still time I suppose 🙈 my boobs are still sore from the last cycle 😂

missmoosh · 26/05/2023 08:48

@TTCing it is really horrible when you realise that. My SIL is due in 2 months and I have yet to ever see a positive pregnancy test...

I consider myself very lucky though that I have not had a miscarriage, I don't know how you girls keep it together after something like that.

I was thinking this morning to myself that when I do get the positive test, it is going to be the best day ever! Whenever that may be, I know I have a day filled with joy coming my way!

Freya8 · 26/05/2023 09:30

@TTCing @Daniki im so so sorry for your heartbreak girls
Def a whirlwind of emotions ttc
@missmoosh thats a beautiful way of thinkin of it and it will be the best day ever ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

@missmoosh exactly it will be such a great day! And I'm honestly delighted for you that someday(soon🤞🏻) you will have that joy that's not tainted with previous loss as it such a big moment in your life and should be celebrated! You be surprised at how you pull yourself together afterwards, I always thought I wouldn't cope with one but iv had 2 and while obviously anxious i'm still excited to try and hopefully get there in the end 🤞🏻 🥰

@Daniki fertile window will be coming soon!

@missmoosh sorry to hear you have to manage your emotions with your sister in law being due soon 😔 hopefully your time will come very soon! ❤️ It will be so beautiful for you when you finally get your bfp!

I can’t believe I’m only 2dpo…it’s going to be a long old wait!

I think I’ll be on holiday during my next fertile window! Maybe the sunshine will bring me good luck! Haha x

I'm back! I'm now 1dpo and the wait begins! Anyone that waited with me last month still here? @TTCing @Lilothblos @missmoosh I've tried body temperature for the first time this time as well as ovulation strips! Do these charts look good? :)

@Bethpotter111 we’re still here!

I have no idea about bbt! Sorry, I can’t advise!

I think I’m 2dpo today. So we’re similar in dates ❤️ xx

OP posts:
missmoosh · 26/05/2023 22:02

@Bethpotter111 we are indeed still here! Was going to say we are here plodding along but maybe it's more like f*ing along 😅 ...had some wine feeling like a comedian tonight 😂

I'm assuming blue line is the temp? What is the red line? 😅 I believe if blue line is temp then yes looking good, if you have sustained rise in bbt for 3 days it indicates ovulation has happened 🙂

missmoosh · 26/05/2023 22:04

@TTCing thank you, I can't wait for it to be my turn haha

Daniki · 27/05/2023 08:35

Really strong test but says 0.9? I know it says high beside it but so confused by that? 😂

@Daniki I probably would tonight too, cover it fully then lol

We had such a horrible day yesterday didn't get to sit down until nearly 10, so we missed a day, but pretty sure we did about 12 days in a row... 😂

Daniki · 27/05/2023 17:31

@missmoosh yea you're right I text my husband earlier and said it will be a busy wknd 😂 but hopefully will catch it over the next few days 🤞🏻 haha 12 days in a row is lots I'm sure you've got it! Wouldn't be fit for that 😂

missmoosh · 27/05/2023 21:14

@Daniki Hahaha, I can never fully tell if my husband is like yay or oh no when I say something like that 😂
Yeah we have gone again today so only one day missed so far!

Secondtimettc · 28/05/2023 09:44

@missmoosh oh I'm sorry its so hard with family. I am in the nice position of having a child already but every week there are about three second pregnancy announcements at the moment. Happy for them all of course but I feel a bit on edge with it and how I am feeling about things!

I'm on CD 15 and no sign of ovulation. 😬Blank on clearblue and nothing on strips. Usually I'm on the flashing smiley at least by now. We all had a sick bug earlier in the month so wondering if it has slowed things down. Annoying as I am impatient!
