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.

@@etaketak1991 no AF here yet, BBT increased again today too.
cervix is too high to even feel this morning, having full cramping aches this morning though.
I need to check cervix tonight because when i checked in the shower last night it was low and felt pretty firm, but I know it can change throughout the day.
im trying not to get my hopes built up too much.
your chart looks good! When are you planning on testing?

@Ncl31 That all sounds very promising! Your chart looks fantastic. My cervix is so changeable I have no idea how to track it 😂 I'm thinking of testing on Saturday if my temps are still up 🤞🤞 How about you?

CatiaR · 24/10/2023 07:24

@etaketak1991 looks promising! Fingers crossed for you 🤞

according to flo I’m on fertile week now since yesterday but not according to premom. I do think ovulation prediction is more likely to be premom but doesn’t hurt to get started so we started BD yesterday and probably gonna again do every other day that helps not feel like a chore so fingers crossed for this month.

@Ncl31 also looking promising 🤞

Ncl31 · 24/10/2023 07:26

@etaketak1991 i don’t think cervix position is an accurate way to track anyway, its so changeable.
good luck!
im due AF Thursday, so if it hasn’t arrived and my temp is still up then I’ll probably test then

CatiaR · 24/10/2023 15:49

Ovulation might be around the corner which is exciting and earlier than usual. Had ewcm for the last two days and LH already getting higher so keeping my eyes peeled for when it will happen 😂

Ncl31 · 24/10/2023 15:53

@CatiaR ooooooh get BDing!

CatiaR · 24/10/2023 17:19

@Ncl31 yup we started yesterday. Planning every other day for now unless we feel like doing more often 😂

OP posts:
etaketak1991 · 24/10/2023 17:47

@Ncl31 Eek not long to go then! I've got everything crossed for you 🤞

@CatiaR Hooray! Best of luck ✨

I've finally gotten some proper cramps, they've been weirdly missing until now 😂 I've also got some twinges in my right hip which is unusual for me but could honestly be anything. Why does the TWW last so long? 🙃

CatiaR · 24/10/2023 17:53

@etaketak1991 oooh exciting but yeah at this point it all symptoms can be anything 😂 it does drag doesn’t it.

I’m excited that I’ll be ovulating soon but not looking forward to waiting! Last month I was off on holidays so didn’t think about it much probably not gonna be the same this time but I’m determined to not test till AF time this round 😂

I’m surprised my body is gearing up to ovulate already as the earliest I’ve noted was cd19 and its only cd15 today but that means I might have a cycle of about 32 days or less which is nice ! Last ones been like 35-35 so felt dragging for AF to show. Before TTC they had never gone past 32-33 at most 😂

fingers crossed tho must be not long to go for both of you 😊

Ncl31 · 24/10/2023 19:00

@etaketak1991 @CatiaR
eeeek! Not long for sure! Can’t come quick enough. I’ve had an abundance of creamy/lotiony cm today. I felt like af had arrived!

etaketak1991 · 24/10/2023 19:14

@Ncl31 I'm honestly going to say I'll eat my hat if you get a BFN if/when you eventually test! My CM is still super dry so that's keeping my enthusiasm sufficiently reined in haha.

Ncl31 · 24/10/2023 19:23

@etaketak1991 well I’ve had so
many BFNs in the past I’ll eat my own hat if I see a BFP!
so we might be chewing hats together!
I feel completely normal otherwise though.
i can’t remember feeling “wet” just before AF before

Hotmalibu94 · 24/10/2023 19:33

@Ncl31 if it helps, I still feel pretty normal 🥲 only thing I've had since BFP is my boobs have stayed sore (was always a normal luteal phase symptom) and I've had cramps, but when they go it's like I've made the whole thing up 😂
Fingers crossed for thursday!

@etaketak1991 glad your temp is still up! How many DPO are you?

@CatiaR good luck for fertile week! Exciting that it might be sooner than usual!

CatiaR · 24/10/2023 19:56

@Hotmalibu94 thank you! Definitely sooner, my opk its gone almost as dark as control so no doubt my peak will be tomorrow and ovulation Thursday which is interesting and flo is right which has not been the case so far. But I’m pleased to have a shorter more normal cycle. Will probably be about 30 days ish which has been a while since it was like that 😂 especially after ttc

ive heard a lot of ppl with not many symptoms at all either so I guess enjoy it for now 😝 hopefully you’ll have an uneventful 9 months 😊

OP posts:
Ncl31 · 24/10/2023 19:59

@Hotmalibu94 have you registered anywhere that you’re pregnant to get you in the cycle yet? Or do they tell you to wait until 6 weeks or something?
it’s good that you feel well though but I guess you will doubt yourself. I’d be the same.

etaketak1991 · 24/10/2023 20:15

@Hotmalibu94 I'm only 8dpo, but temp should be dropping by now, so 🤞 for it staying up tomorrow!

With my DD, I had barely any symptoms besides being tired as hell, cramps and intensely sore nipples when it was cold for all of the first trimester. I remember wanting to "feel/evidence" the pregnancy more at that stage! ❤️

Hollie1802 · 24/10/2023 20:23

Hey ladies!!

@Ncl31 I have to agree with @etaketak1991 that'll be three of us eating our hats!

@etaketak1991 🤞🏼 your temp stays up tomorrow!!

@CatiaR that's such great news that it's a better length this month! Everything is crossed for you!!

Hotmalibu94 · 24/10/2023 21:03

@CatiaR ahhhh exciting! Almost into the TWW 🤞

@Ncl31 I called my hospital and they basically told me to go away until 6 weeks 😂 so I'm going to call Friday which is like 5 weeks 6 days so hopefully they just register me 😂🤞 yeah Im gonna test again on Friday just to make sure 😂

@etaketak1991 ohhhh good sign then! Fingers crossed! It's weird, the boobs are sore but a lot of the time it is literally just that. So kinda hoping for more symptoms soon.

etaketak1991 · 25/10/2023 06:42

@Hotmalibu94 Ah don't worry, they'll come! I tested every week for about 3 weeks after getting my positive, I was so weirded out by the lack of symptoms 😂 It's how people get to 8 weeks without realising they're pregnant!

I'm still in the game 👍 Waiting to see what happens tomorrow now. My CM has finally made a reappearance too 🙌

Hotmalibu94 · 25/10/2023 06:48

Ahhh thank you! I am worried but I think I just need to chill 😂 I actually tested this morning and I think they're about as close to dye stealers as it's possible to get with an IC 😂

Ahhhhh exciting! Testing tomorrow?

etaketak1991 · 25/10/2023 07:26

@Hotmalibu94 Those tests look perfect 👍 I'm waiting until Saturday to test as long as temps still look good, AF is due sometime between Friday and Monday so thought I'd plump in the middle 😂

Ncl31 · 25/10/2023 07:33

@etaketak1991 fingers crossed for you this weekend.
DH is away from today until Friday evening, I’m going to try to wait until Saturday to test too if AF hasn’t arrived by then - officially due tomorrow but last cycle I was 2 days late so might as well wait.
@Hotmalibu94 you might not get any symptoms at all! My friend didn’t have symptoms other than her bump, and that only appeared at 24 weeks, she said uniil she went for her scan she didn’t believe it at all.

Hotmalibu94 · 25/10/2023 08:24

Oooooh fingers crossed for you both! I'm very hopeful for you guys 😁
@Ncl31 yeah this is a thought! Though I felt a bit sick after breakfast, dunno if I just ate too much or if I felt sick because of morning sickness 😂😂

CatiaR · 25/10/2023 08:54

@etaketak1991 oooh its looking good! I remember you saying you always been getting bbt drops at about 9dpo!

@Hotmalibu94 look at them dye stealers! so exciting

@Ncl31 oooh getting close to knowing, can't wait to know about yours and @etaketak1991 outcome 😄

I think I'm the only one left just starting TWW soon ahah, seems like I will be 1dpo on friday at this point but I'll know when I test later, DH knows the game plan, BD on the cards for today and tomorrow at the very least maybe even friday if I can convince him to do so XD

regardless pleased to have a cycle shorter than 35 days !

Morning ladies, can I join in this thread please?

I’ve been BBT all year and this is month 4 TTC. No success yet even with OPKs and BBT 😔 I love how positive and supportive this group is as everyone knows how hard it is everytime AF comes.

Currently 8dpo but I’ve got my usual drop onto the downward trend so think I’m out again this month. AF due Sunday/Monday
