Hi all,

I am out for this month on my first cycle TTC baby number 2. Have a 3 year old already and I am approaching 35years old. June was a relaxed TTC month but determined to use OPKS and be a bit more strategic this month. Looking forward to tracking our progress together this month - feel free to introduce yourself below!

10dpo today and BFN! I feel exactly like I felt symptoms wish with my first
I found out with my 9 month old at 11dpo in the evening. So I have everything crossed that I see something tomorrow!
AF due on friday

GLC789 · 25/07/2023 22:51

Trying hard not to get my hopes up here!

Ovulation day was predicted for 19th. But, NC hasn't confirmed yet based on temp.

According to my app prediction, AF isn't due until 01/08.

I had some cramping today and tonight some spotting. Bit of an over share, but also a lot of 💩 and wind last two days 👀👀.

I don't want to get too excited! I'm also filled with dread that AF will arrive, I really don't want to see her!

Is it too early to take a pregnancy test? 👀 Part of me wants to, but equally I don't think I'm prepared to see a negative result either.

@GLC789 definitely too early imo. You will likely see a negative just because it's soo early.. most women don't implant until 9dpo. I tend to be an early tester, so if it will ease your mind to see a negative I understand but I would still hold off until atleast the weekend. Even then though could still be a false negative!

Thank you. I'm trying to convince myself that it's AF coming early. I know it sounds arse backwards but I'm the type of girl who gets her hopes up too often and is then crushed when it turns out not to be true!

No one warns us about the longing and hoping we have in complete isolation. I wonder if our husbands, or partners go through anything like this in their heads? @jujules5232

@BB2023 congratulations lovely!!!! 🎉

According to Flo I ovulated on the 12th and so am 15dpo today. It says that AF is due today and it's normally very accurate with predicting my period dates. However, the first day of AF is usually super heavy, but there was only a teeny tiny bit of blood this morning on the tissue, and then nothing since which is unusual. I had cramps late last night but nothing since. I'm now thinking that Flo could be wrong with the day I ovulated and I actually ovulated around 17th and this could be implantation bleeding and still BFN as of yesterday. I don't track ovulation so as the app has also predicted AF accurately, I've just assumed it's correct with everything else.🙃 Very confused 😂 I guess I'll just have to wait and see if AF actually comes in the next day or two and if not I'll do another test!

winterbabyrose · 27/07/2023 10:59

If I ovulated around the 17th then implantation around 10dpo would be accurate, which is today. Super confused and now thinking that I've been tracking DTD with an ovulation date that doesn't even match up 🙃🙃 if AF does come, I'm 100% doing OPKs next cycle..!

babano2 · 27/07/2023 19:52

What do you think?
11/12dpo today

peak OPK on 15th
(and I’m aware CB are notorious for evaps etc but this was visible from 2 mins after test being taken)

Me again 👀👀

Still spotting since Tuesday - 4 days.

I mean, total spotting. Not even enough for a panty liner. Only when I wipe after going for a wee. Even then its minimal. No usual period cramps.

Was first pink and watery, now brown ish but still watery.

NC is still yet to confirm that I ovulated based in my temperature but I had the LH line two days before so I'm confident I ovulated on 19th

What's your thoughts ladies?

@GLC789 Could be implantation spotting although I've heard it usually lasts 1-2 days.. sending baby dust

Thank you! I need all the dust I can get! X

GLC789 · 28/07/2023 20:28

Turns out, all I needed to do was buy a PT.

As soon as I got home - AF decided to flow her way in. You couldn't make it up 😂🤦

Well, thats me out for July.

Congratulations to all who got their lines this month and good luck to all who are joining me in August for more baby dancing and hope xx

That's true @TT82 I've also started drinking this fertility tea with lots of womb warming herbs in it.. take a look on Instagram on @rescue_midwife page. It's created by a midwife and there's lots of 5* reviews where verified customers have conceived in 1-3 months. So I'm hoping for it to work.

https://rescuemidwife.com/collections/tea-collection/products/luxury-fertility-tea

Do follow her on Instagram. She's got lots of helpful information.

Hi @mahii95 👋 I am trying to read up more but can't get into the website? I want to buy some of the tea and hair oil 😒 xxx

mahii95 · 29/07/2023 18:38

@Floralsandsmiles

Hi, try this link.. I've book marked the website in one of my tabs on safari on iPhone. I've noticed that she's took the link off her insta page however she put on her insta story that the next restock date was 06/08/23.

So keep an eye out..

Thanks @mahii95 ! I will keep checking! I need her hair oil and this fertility tea. I am suffering with extreme hair loss from loss of weight (to TTC with better chances) and will try anything to help at this point with a BFP. Where can you read the reviews? Or is it only on the page? I saw on her Instagram page that bone broth could help too and thought I'd give that a go.. xxx

mahii95 · 29/07/2023 19:25

@Floralsandsmiles yes definitely.. I can still see the reviews as I already had the tab open on
Safari on iPhone. I've took some screenshots of some of them and they are all 5 stars tbh.. there's 70 reviews in total.. barring 6 out of the 70 which gave 4*.

Try to email the following. Not going to lie I wasn't expecting her to respond to my message so soon. @Floralsandsmiles

It is really working for me.. usually I have a 42 day plus cycle and ovulate at around day 26.

I started the tea on cycle day 1 and ovulated on day 14/15 so I'm so happy but don't want to jinx it x

Aww thank you so very much @mahii95 ! I have just emailed her now.
I have regular periods and ovulate on CD14-15, have had all GP tests, scans, sperm analysis.. all fine and still no BFP 😒
I just don't know what's happening... I will try anything at this point! Xxx
