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.

Hey @MorningsideMaisie welcome back! I'm CD12 so you're not far behind me. Glad someone else has returned for the next cycle 💕 all the best for you for this month!

CatiaR · 03/09/2023 21:55

@Ncl31 thats very convenient indeed and that’s also me for sure! Wake up, find the thermometer hide under a pillow, let the pup free from her crate, run to pee and then let the pup pee 😂

not long for us to know! Fingers crossed 😊

@Hotmalibu94 that does look very stable, and great signs that your ovulation is coming up very soon! Best of luck for this cycle 🤞

@MorningsideMaisie no problem! I waited a day or two to see if anyone was creating a new one but ended up just doing a new one to reply to the last messages 😂 fingers crossed for this cycle for you ✨

@JustTrying1 welcome! These are my first month doing opk and small changes to yourself and the environment can affect it as if you see some of the odd ones here and there much higher or lower before ovulation was just days that the weather was really hot or really cold (making my room hotter and colder and me too)

good luck for this cycle ✨🤞

Sorry I’ve been a bit quiet on here! My pregnancy tests didn’t get any fainter over around a week so I went back to EPU for a scan - they found a very small (0.5ml) amount of retained tissue 🙄 because it’s so small they don’t want to do anything, so I just need to test again in like 10 days and see if it’s gone negative. Buuut, based on BBT I’m pretty sure I ovulated around a week ago. I assume the remaining tissue means I can’t actually get pregnant this cycle, but hoping a I get a normal period in around a week’s time and that will clear out what it needs to, then I can start another cycle. What a palaver!

Exciting you’re back in the fertile week @Hotmalibu94 - feels like it’s come around so quickly (although I’m sure not so much for you)!

Everyone’s temps are looking good! I was tempted (temp-ed?! - I’ll let myself out…) by the Bluetooth thermometer but I saw lots of people on IG saying it doesn’t work loads of the time. Hopefully the next one is good though!

Ncl31 · 04/09/2023 06:54

11DPO this morning, I have the heaving impending AF feeling (I think)
also, looking at my chart the average trend is starting to decline, I’d expect it to decline over the next day or 2 for AF to arrive by Thursday/Friday.
How are you @CatiaR ??

CatiaR · 04/09/2023 07:01

@Ncl31 hiya! I’m good thanks 13dpo but not testing anymore till AF is due or missed now. Temp went down slightly but very negligible as its still way over the coverline but hopefully don’t see a sharp decrease tomorrow for AF day!

we’ll see how it goes. hopefully AF doesn’t show for you!

Ncl31 · 04/09/2023 07:14

That looks very promising, hopefully it’s a good sign and you get your BFP.
This month I’m totally relaxed as to whether I get a BFP or not. I’m super excited to go to Florida at the weekend so either way I’m fine.
if I am going to get AF I’d rather it was Thursday/Friday tbh so I don’t have my heaviest day during the 9 hour flight.

CatiaR · 04/09/2023 07:16

Hopefully but at this point I have no idea 🤷‍♀️

yeah that’s exciting for you, sounds like a great trip and indeed if AF was to show best to not be in be middle of a long flight!

OP posts:
Hotmalibu94 · 04/09/2023 07:20

Hey @ginny93, that sounds rubbish I'm sorry! Hopefully you're right and even if that little bit left means you can't get pregnant this cycle it'll be expelled with next AF 🤞

@CatiaR temp chart looking good! Such a tiny drop hopefully it doesn't mean anything!

@Ncl31 glad you have a fab holiday to look forward to either way 💕 hope you have an amazing time!

Hotmalibu94 · 04/09/2023 12:43

LH test negative today which is to be expected if I'm due to ovulate Thursday but thought I'd check as I'm basically dropping EWCM 😳
Thinking do I give the DH a night off tonight as he's ill and then aim for BD tomorrow, Wednesday and thursday instead 😅

Ncl31 · 04/09/2023 15:57

@Hotmalibu94 give him the choice, he might feel better after BD

CatiaR · 04/09/2023 18:48

@Hotmalibu94 sorry your DH is poorly, sounds like you’re covering your bases anyway so fingers crossed 🤞

not feeling too hopeful that AF won’t show but haven’t had any spotting or anything so far and normally do the day before. I did have a bit of a more beigy colour cm in the mix with the rest of my generally creamy cm that has been.

I have a really long day at work tomorrow as we are all going away for a company day gathering a bit far so I’ll pull the plug and do a boots early detection tomorrow and see how it goes. Probably bring a pad along in case she shows.

OP posts:
Hotmalibu94 · 04/09/2023 19:46

Haha @Ncl31 I mentioned it to DH and I think as long as I do the work he's said we're good 😂

@CatiaR yeah I just want to cover the bases as much as possible but we will see! Oh good luck for tomorrow, have my fingers crossed for you!

Huriya · 04/09/2023 20:26

Hii everyone how you all doing? Sorry ive been so awol. Ended up in AE again and have a scan again this thursday.
Ive been having sharp pains and back pain. Really hoping babys ok.
I should be 6 weeks this Thurs so fingers crossed they can see the baby 🥺

I havent been able to keep up with the messages, any other BFP?

CatiaR · 04/09/2023 20:41

@Hotmalibu94 thanks!

@Huriya !! Welcome back! Sorry to hear you’re not doing so well, hopefully all ok with your little bean 🥰

I can’t think of anyone else that got a bfp in the meantime. Me and @Ncl31 are the last ones waiting for an answer. I’ve been getting bfns for a while but AF is either due tomorrow or Wednesday so gonna do a proper test and see how it goes. Unless my BBT does a massive drop tomorrow morning but hopefully not!

OP posts:
Hotmalibu94 · 04/09/2023 20:55

@Huriya oh lovely, I really hope everything is ok! If it makes you feel any better my friend from my last job went to be checked about 5 times if not more in very early pregnancy because of pains and bleeding and everything was fine- she now has a happy and healthy 1.5yr old! So hoping you're going to be the same 🥰

Don't think there's been any other BFPs. A few people just went quiet so I'm assuming they went on to have af. Myna had AF over the weekend I believe.

Back in the fertile window here and trying to seduce a poorly DH 😂

Huriya · 04/09/2023 21:25

@CatiaR @Hotmalibu94 Im feeling alot better ended up having cyclizene prescribed for the sickness and have started pregnacare max for antenatals. Im feeling positive just hoping everything goes ok, my pregnancy tests are super dark and my blood tests showed super high HCG so fingers crossed.

When are you testing @CatiaR
@Hotmalibu94 oh no hope your hubby gets well soon.. probs time to get the nice nighties out may do the trick😉

CatiaR · 04/09/2023 21:51

@Huriya glad to hear they gave you something that helps!

I’ll test tomorrow morning if BBT doesn’t take a dive as AF should be due tomorrow. Not overly positive but we’ll see what happens. Either way will have an answer soon 😊

OP posts:
Hotmalibu94 · 04/09/2023 22:12

@Huriya well that all seems positive so fingers crossed for you!
Haha well I think I'm giving him the night off now, will have to see how things are tomorrow 👀 but LH negative today so at least I'm not ovulating tomorrow so if we don't DTD today we can still do Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and pretty much cover the window 🤞

CatiaR · 05/09/2023 05:43

Good morning! BBT dropped below coverline this morning so I reckon AF is on its way. Not going to waste a test and just wait till it arrives and move on to next cycle.

OP posts:
Ncl31 · 05/09/2023 06:35

My BBT is on a declining trend now, the last 3 days it’s started to slowly decrease. Still above the cover line. AF due Friday, fingers crossed it comes on time so I can enjoy my holiday.

CatiaR · 05/09/2023 06:38

@Ncl31 I guess we’ll both be out this month! Hopefully yours comes on time so you can enjoy your holidays 😊

OP posts:
Hotmalibu94 · 05/09/2023 07:02

Awww sorry @Ncl31 and @CatiaR. Will either of you be sticking around for next month?

Ncl31 · 05/09/2023 07:07

@Hotmalibu94 I’ll definitely stick around.
ive felt calmer this month, not sure if it’s because of the holiday coming up and I’m super looking forward to it. But I think maybe Ovusense has taken the stress away, not trying to read OPKs and not having to remember to take my temp before going to pee!
instarted using it mid way through a cycle so it’ll be interesting to use it for a full cycle once AF has been and gone.
@CatiaR im sorry to hear your temp has dropped. Hopefully AF arrives sooner than later so you can get cracking with the next cycle.

CatiaR · 05/09/2023 07:40

@Hotmalibu94 @Ncl31 we’ll see when AF shows! It was about .4 drop so I’m sure it will arrive. Gonna stick around for next month, just going to wait till AF turns up for sure and then buy some more opks as I’ve ran out. Better luck next time I guess.
