TTC Sept 2023

[MrsNT]

Lets jump on this bus
Xx

@Lushfanatic123 😂 I didn't even notice 🙈 you're right of course

Congrats to the Positives.

I am on Cycle day 8 after a chemical last week. I am waiting to see the Dr now and start with tests.
LO will be 2 in Nov was so hopeful to have 2 under 2 last year but bot panned out that way at all. And I am nearly 37.
Hoping the Drs trip as well as the changes I am making help.

I am starting Castor Oil packs tomorrow until my Fertile week starts. Feetility Dr I spoke to reccomended I tried it especially as I have Fibroid and Endo.

@MixedCouple rooting for you!
I'm sorry about the chemical. Do they ever give a reasoning as to why it happened?

I'm 7dpo and I've had cramps every day during and since ovulation. I've no idea what it means. I'm also so tired all the time, just drifted off to sleep in the middle of my work day (currently working from home). No other signs of anything. Sometimes I have bursts of energy to workout and other times I feel so heavy and weighed down. Oh well.. time will tell.

Good luck @MixedCouple 🤞🏽 as each month passes I get more & more anxious about my age & age gap between my DC (who is almost 4!) I went into this very naively this time & thought we'd get lucky again the first month 🤦🏽‍♀️

Think I may have a vvvvvfl at 10dpo. Praying to god it's not an evap line 😭 DP could see it straightaway it's a bit darker now it's dried. FX it's not an evap 😭😭🤞🤞

It was an evap line 💔

So sorry to hear that @ShivWesker was it a blue dye? Maybe try again with FMU 🤞🏽

Easy@home pink dye. Gutted :( xx

Hi ladies - can I join please ☺️
Been TTC my second a while now and losing hope at 38yrs

Been using CB digital OPKs and suspecting I've not ovulated 2 out of 3 months recently (never got static smiley and had longer cycles).

Got the flashing smiley day 2 now, fingers crossed for static smiley but I'm starting to doubt it'll happen 🙁

I went to the Gp but they weren't very helpful really.

Any advice or similar situations would be much appreciated 😍

@ShivWesker oh no, I'm so sorry. You're not out yet though so don't lose hope.

Thank you! Also, love your username aha. ❤️

Be warned, it's a heck of a squinter! 🤞🤞🤞

Shows up better in person 🙃😂

@ReginaPhalange12 oh snap! Me too. Conceived LO 1st month TTC but I was 33 then and with COVID around so indoors locked up with OH 😂
But yes didn't think it would require much thought. I want worried until 6 months mark.

Fingers crossed. I am teying to relax as much as poss. Lots of massages and pampers nights too chill out

@ShivWesker 😃 thank you. I think if I really squint I can see a hint of a shadow. I was doing the same thing with my easy@home earlier 😂

@MixedCouple that sounds lovely & will hopefully help. I'm away for a few days next week so hoping I'll relax and go into a new cycle with a positive mindset

Better photo perhaps? Im hoping and praying that it's not another evap. Came up within the test window like the last one. 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Can someone recommend a coq10 vitamin there are so many different things thank you

So that 'spotting' only lasted two days and I was roughly 10/11/12 dpo as I think I ovulated on 8th/9th.

Do we think it might have been implantation bleeding or would it be too late?

@ShivWesker I can see something in the new photo. Is it a pink line? Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

@Lushfanatic123 it could be. Have you tested? When is AF due?

I can't tell as it's so faint :( I hope so!

@ShivWesker took me a couple of seconds, but I do see it! 🤞🏻

I haven't tested as I'm trying to be good and not waste money on tests.

AF is due Sunday so another three days to wait!

Did another one (🤦‍♀️😂) and the faint line came up within three minutes and it's pinkish!

@ShivWesker I see it in the 2nd pic!! From my experience, easy@home have never given me an evap for the 14 months I hve been using them! I find them pretty trustworthy compared to other test, coukd you buy a FRER? I had a faint positive on a frer at 9dpo and my easy@home showed up super faint at 10dpo so I imagine if it is positive it’d show on a FRER. Test again tomorrow and everything crossed! Heres mine from 11dpo (bearing in mind tests have dried out) I had a super faint shadow at 10dpo but a decent faint line in FRER.

@123456789sw Hiya saw your comment and wanted to say I’ve been in a similar situation I’m 37 trying for number 3, I was using OPK’s for a few months and never got a peak reading in those months and I suspect I didn’t ovulate. I Switched to cb digital and I have never had a flashing smiley just days of blank circles and then straight to static 🤦🏼‍♀️ so not sure if I have no extrovert surge or my hormones are just all out of sync.
Were you on any contraceptive before starting to ttc?
I had the coil and it has taken my body some adjusting after removal this time, I finally had a very very definite peak on an OPK this month but it was an extremely long cycle with then only an 11 day luteal phase so I still don’t know if I ovulated?!
