June 2023 TTC Thread

[BB2023]

Welcome to June ladies. Adding this thread here to share our June journeys.
Wishing you lots of luck for the month ahead. 🤞🤞🤞

I'll kick things off... CD6 today for me today. I'll start testing for ovulation from tomorrow. Last month I got my peak at CD16 so might be starting a bit early but it's only my 3rd cycle so still learning as I go! x

Hiiii! Can I join? I'm cycle day 1 today, this is our last month of trying before starting IVF on my next period. Fingers crossed for everyone!

Hello @BB2023 and @Jellyfish1956 im 1dpo so a bit ahead and I’m only starting seriously ttc for baby#2 , excited about it :) I wish you both well - what are you using to track your cycle I use the Mira machine (I’ve been using it as birth control before)

I'm on cycle day 8. Got some new ov strips, was using ovusense but they've gone up from £18 for 60 to £35! So got some easy@home instead plus some cheapy hcg strips.

Only had an 8 day LP last month so hoping I ov sooner 🤞🏻

Hi all!

Can I join? 1st cycle ttc#2 and I am on cd29 and haven’t ovulated yet! Long ass cycles here🙋🏽‍♀️

I ovulated cd30 last cycle so hoping by the end of the weekend I will be in my first 2ww!

@Seraphina1993 @PeeBeee hello girls, let’s ovulate and catch up with me :)) do you sometimes feel your ovulation? Some cycle I do some I don’t pay attention I think

@SouthSpringMoon yes - ovulation is actually quite painful for me which I guess comes in handy when ttc! I started taking conceive plus ovulation support around cd10 of this cycle and the box says it can ease symptoms so I am peeing on opks flat out incase the tablets ease my ovulation pain😅

driving myself crazy already! Been getting lower back pain and the odd zap on low right side but opks still negative! I dtd anyway, just incase😂

Hi all hope you dont mind me joining in 8dpo so hoping june is a positive month for us 🥰 but have twinges heavy feeling and back pain so not so sure

@PeeBeee that’s a challenge alright I keep my finger crossed it comes soon for you !! I have rather short cycle (24/25) so it’s easier to track my ovulation but then I’m also getting a bit older hihi
@Pittiemama hello :) 8dpo cramps can be a good sign , you think it could be AF already? Are you planning to test or wait for AF? I’m still undecided 😆

Hi everyone!

Please can I join? This is my first month of actively TTC1 after coming off the pill a few weeks ago, so very new to it all!

Because we're only just starting out I'm not using OPKs at the moment - I'd never heard of them until I started browsing this board, same for BBT and LH?! Think I have a lot to learn... Have been taking folic acid though, cut down on coffee and given up alcohol.

I think I'm probably about 5 days past ovulation at the moment (based just on the aches and pains!) so nothing I can do for a couple of weeks really now, so hoping to just learn a bit more about the best things to do to give us the best chance at conceiving towards the end of June. Typical that the week we decide to start in earnest seems a day or two too late 😔

Joining here. Cd 3 today ovulation is in about 10days this is cycle 11 of ttc

Hello! Can I join you ladies?
CD3 today
Been trying a while for 2nd (38yrs old)
Been trying to monitor LH and ovulation more closely the last few months which I hope has helped timing
Anyone tried using the clearblue digital/advanced OPKs?

@123456789sw hello , haven’t tried any clear blue OPK strip I just use a machine Mira that I have been using so far to prevent pregnancy and now that we are trying I’m actually using it for its original purpose

Hey im i might test today cramps are gone but have a weird heavy feeling its been almost 13 years since my last so i forget all the signs and symptoms 😅 but the wait is driving me crazy

@Pittiemama my last was also 6y ago and I don’t remember much before missing my period cause I was on holiday and partying like an animal 😆 now my life is much quieter (for the better!) and I’m a bit clueless… reading so many girls testing early and then having their AF and thinking about the disappointment part of me wants to try not to test early… when are your AF due?

@SouthSpringMoon 😅😅due in 5 days but i came off thr pill 3 months ago this is my 2nd cycle its driving me mad because i work in a hospital in maternaty outpatients to be exact 🙈

@Pittiemama jeez it must be impossible not to think about it then 🙈 me I’m getting a tad too paranoid about everything I do like food exercise etc like it could make a difference while I was in Disney world roller coaster with my first without knowing I was actually expecting … life eh 🤣

Its tough alright 🤣 very tempted to test today but dont want the dissapointment i think its still early 🙈

Hello everyone, hoping I can join in?
I’m on cycle day 1 today so will be testing for ovulation in the next week or so.
This is month 14 of TTC baby number 1 so it’s getting to be an anxious time and I feel quite alone! Having doctors appointments later in the month to see what’s going wrong for me.
Fingers crossed for everyone this cycle!

I’ll join. On CD 2. Good luck all. X

I tested it was negative its ok though because it super early 8/9 dpo and its only the 1st month trying since i stopped birth control (mini pill) still have some weird symptoms pulling aching so tired a very warm so we'll see 🥰

@Pittiemama indeed still early days let’s see how it goes and otherwise we might do 2nd cycle trying keeping in touch ;)

@TS45 hey there! What method are you using to track your cycle and try to conceive? I hope you’ll get some answers or BFP soon

@SouthSpringMoon I've been trying using ovulation tests - I think I'd been timing BD around CD14 but in fact I tend seem to ovulate a bit later - when I'd given up!

@SouthSpringMoon I've also been using the premom app / you can upload LH strip photos etc
