Hi @hotmalibu94.

I’m good thanks, still bfn today at 11dpo but temps still high so we’ll see what happens.

@Ncl31 how are you today ?

the other thread got full so I started a new one 😊

I’ll add now all I can remember but keep adding who else I missed!
@pinkmarshmalloww@Huriya @thejollytrolleydolly @ginny93@MorningsideMaisie@Myna13

@hotmalibu94 sounds like you’re getting into your fertile week soon so that’s exciting! Fingers crossed for you this cycle.

@CatiaR @Hotmalibu94 Thank you both! Just trying to be calm and take it day by day and not worry that history will repeat itself! But I am so so lucky, and I absolutely appreciate that!

How are you both feeling? @CatiaR you must be coming up on ovulation now? And @Hotmalibu94 AF due Saturday? 🤞🏼 it stays well away!

Huriya · 12/10/2023 14:57

Heyy everyone! How are you all doing?? Its been forever since i last logged onto mumsnet.
Im 11 weeks now and been off work for 5 weeks with HG but alot better now and back in action.

Hows everyone doing??

Congratulationss to all those with BFPs! ❤️❤️❤️

Hotmalibu94 · 12/10/2023 15:12

Ahhhh @Huriya I was just wondering today how you were getting on! So glad to hear you're a bit better 💕 can't believe you're 11 weeks already 😂 bet it's dragged for you though!

@Hollie1802 yeah due Saturday! Really hoping it stays away for a while at least. Obviously REALLY hoping it'll be a bfp but I'm not convinced 😂

CatiaR · 12/10/2023 17:23

@Hollie1802 taking day by day is a good approach, sending all the baby dust to you and a safe journey through this pregnancy ✨❤️

Only cd3 and still on my period, my cycles are long so I’m not due to ovulate till near my birthday at the end of the month, it would be amazing if we conceived this cycle as also would be due near our anniversary/wedding anniversary which is the same day 😂 but not putting any pressure!

@Hotmalibu94 aaah not long! Reckon your luteal phase will be longer this time at least? Fingers crossed 🤞

@Huriya hiya lovely 🥰 glad to hear from you, 11 weeks!! Glad to know that you’re progressing nicely after a turbulent start, hoping your second and third trimester are better for you ❤️

@Hollie1802 Ahhh massive congratulations 🎉🎉 All the sticky baby dust for you ✨

Huriya · 12/10/2023 18:20

@Hotmalibu94 I know! I cant believe im nearly towards the end of my first trimester. Have my 12w dating scan next week. I wish we all got our BFPs together honestly would of been amazing.

@CatiaR After the very turbulent start im finally starting to feel like myself again 😂.

What have I missed out on whos had BFPs then?

Any update on @MorningsideMaisie @thejollytrolleydolly @Myna13 @Ncl31

Sorry if ive missed anyone out theyre the only ones i recognise 🙈

Hotmalibu94 · 12/10/2023 20:40

@CatiaR oh I'm really hoping so. It's so hard to tell, I don't think I really get a huge amount of indication that AF is coming! Just the temp drop but no other real symptoms. So just got to wait for that and hopefully it'll never come 🤣 it's bonkers how different our cycles are considering we started so close together 🤣

@Huriya awww I'm so excited for you! You have to come back and let us know how it goes 💕

CatiaR · 12/10/2023 21:36

@Hotmalibu94 i know right? I’ve only done 2 cycles in the meantime mine are so long 😂

OP posts:
MorningsideMaisie · 13/10/2023 07:19

Hi @Huriya great to hear from you, glad you’ve recovered from the HG. Let us know how you get on at the dating scan.

I’m 4dpo today, had a follow up ultrasound for an ovarian cyst on Wednesday. The radiographer confirmed I ovulated from the right side and everything is looking normal. So, fingers tightly crossed that this is the month!

Have stopped BBTing for this cycle and will restart along with CB advanced OPKs in the FW next month. I found I’m not learning anything extra from BBT outside those times and trying hard not to obsess. Planning to test at 12dpo, as we’re going out for dinner then so would like to have wine with a clear conscious! No more alcohol for me in the TWW now.

@Hollie1802 congrats! Hope you have a smooth pregnancy

Hotmalibu94 · 13/10/2023 07:33

Ah yay @MorningsideMaisie good luck for old righty! 10dpo today and temp is higher than previous so I think we're on to a longer luteal phase at least 😁

etaketak1991 · 13/10/2023 07:40

@Hotmalibu94 Hooray for a longer luteal phase! Fingers crossed it keeps it up 🤞

Hotmalibu94 · 13/10/2023 08:15

@etaketak1991 fingers crossed!

Haven't really been symptom spotting much but since 7dpo my sex drive has been non existent. Normally it's low in the luteal phase but this is completely like my body has switched off 😂 poor DH 🥲 my temp is higher today whereas normally I'd be seeing a slow decline or a plateau ready for it to drop for AF so I guess I'll wait and see what happens this weekend. If I make it to Monday it'll be a 12 day luteal phase. Not sure when I should test if AF doesn't show!

Stickly · 13/10/2023 08:49

So behind! I was visiting family. Congrats @Hollie1802 and fingers crossed for you @Hotmalibu94 .
My charts looking good still but I've not got thr highest odds of pregnancy as I'd misjudged my ovulation dates if FF is correct.

Hollie1802 · 13/10/2023 08:57

@Hotmalibu94 that is amazing news that your temps are still high, everything is crossed for you but even if this isn't your month, hopefully this is a sign of a longer luteal phase which would be amazing!

@CatiaR Hopefully this is your month with the timings being so amazing! Funnily enough, I found out I was pregnant on our 7 year anniversary! It couldn't have really worked out better!

@etaketak1991 @MorningsideMaisie @Stickly Thank you all 😊

thejollytrolleydolly · 13/10/2023 09:02

Morning @Huriya nothing exciting going on with me unfortunately! I'm due af on Monday so who knows! I had a lovely holiday though and many drinks were consumed on my birthday which funnily enough was my predicted ovulation date 😂 did manage to dtd a couple of times around then too. If anything the only symptoms I've had this week have been whacky dreams every night, achy boobs every day and I keep having hot flushes randomly throughout the day and dizzy spells. Could be nothing though and I'm not getting my hopes up just incase. I have my promotion course tomorrow so that should keep my mind occupied for the next few days. I'll take a test with me though just incase! You ladies will be the first to know when I get my BFP ❤️❤️

etaketak1991 · 13/10/2023 09:14

@CatiaR Haha my DD was born on our 2nd anniversary! Her due date was the day before so we knew it would be the case 🙃 Means that she'll share an 18th and our 20th anniversary which is pretty cool.

@Stickly Did you BD on CD16? I'd say that puts you in with a good chance! 🤞

No sign of LH peaking yet and my temps are wild this cycle so after 2 months of BBTing I feel like I'm going into this ovulation/TWW totally blind 😂 Might be a good thing though.

Stickly · 13/10/2023 09:33

Looking hopeful for you !@thejollytrolleydolly

@etaketak1991 we did but then it was 2 days prior to that so a bit dissapointed with that. At least I'll know for next cycle if not successful. That's a shame for you that you've been unwell and BBT has been so all over the place!

Hotmalibu94 · 13/10/2023 14:04

@Hollie1802 thank you! Hopefully I'll have a longer LP or even more hopefully I'll join you in the BFP club 🥲 I think I'll have an idea tomorrow when I do my temp! How are you feeling? Did you have any symptoms or anything?

@Stickly 2 days before is all it takes! Fingers crossed for you!

@thejollytrolleydolly hey welcome back! Great to hear from you. Fingers crossed for you!

thejollytrolleydolly · 13/10/2023 14:11

@Hotmalibu94 I'm just popping my head in 😜 I have such a tendency for obsessing over TTC that I have to keep Mumsnet to a minimum sometimes lol! Had a bit of brown cm today so could be implantation but more likely to be the pre period colour 😅 we will see in the next couple of days... how are you doing?

@Stickly fingers crossed 🤞🏽❤️

Hotmalibu94 · 13/10/2023 14:14

@thejollytrolleydolly totally get that! Ah god I hate the wondering of if these symptoms are pregnancy or period related 🥲 hopefully for you it's implantation!
Yeah I'm ok, had a major wobble last month that my luteal phase was quite short at 10 days, and I was having bleeding between AF and ovulation. So I started taking vit B supplements and hopefully it's helping, I didn't have the random bleeding this month at least! No real symptoms to speak of, and AF is due tomorrow. Keeping the fingers crossed 😁

thejollytrolleydolly · 13/10/2023 14:31

Aww @Hotmalibu94 our cycles are so close together! Fingers crossed for you and I'm happy you've had a longer luteal phase! Let me know if the witch comes tomorrow and I'll keep you updated too. I'm getting some weird cramps today just on one side but it also could be gas 😂 I hate to speculate because I'm normally wrong lol xx

Hollie1802 · 13/10/2023 14:56

@Hotmalibu94 oh I really really hope so!! 😌 I've got everything crossed that your temp stays high tomorrow 🤞🏼

I'm doing ok, still in disbelief tbh as this was the month I was away without my partner so missed the lead up entirely so shows that it really does only take the one!

I think the only things I could say were symptoms were the strangely high temperature, I had the odd wave of very light nausea and I had cramps in the last few days leading up to the BFP that felt exactly like I was about to come onto my period!

Ncl31 · 13/10/2023 19:35

@Hollie1802 congratulations on your BFP, fingers crossed this is a sticky bean for you this time xx

@Huriya in so pleased to hear you’re feeling better. Can’t believe you’re 11 weeks already?! That has flown over, although I’m sure being poorly it probably hasn’t for you. No update for me, taking supplements and monitoring BBT using Ovusense. Was hoping for a more normal cycle this month but I’m currently CD32 with no ovulation yet. Although I had EWCM on CD12-16.

I’ve had some weird cramping the last 2 days, was hoping it was AF and the sensor just hadn’t detected ovulation, but I’m not convinced.
