BBTing our way to a BFP in September 🎉 cont.

[CatiaR]

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.

@Ncl31 thats very positive then fingers crossed for you 🤞

@etaketak1991 thanks! Oooh fertile week again how exciting!

not sure what premom is on about there lol

Unfortunately for my period a few days ago so onto the next round! Bought clear blue advanced ovulation tests this time so fingers crossed this is our month 🤞

@EK37 sorry to hear that! Fingers crossed for next cycle 🤞

13dpo for me and waiting, got some symptoms here and there but not thinking much of it. Temps still high for now, getting harder not to test near the end but to be fair my luteal phase this cycle is a couple of days longer 😂

@CatiaR Oooh how's it going?.Not long until Saturday now 🤞

@EK37 Sorry to hear AF arrived for you, best of luck with the next cycle!

I'm in the middle of fertile week now, just waiting for my OPKs to give me a peak. Hoping it's soon ☺️

@etaketak1991 well I caved this morning and tested which was bfn so I believe I may be out, temps have gone down a little but still plenty above coverline so not holding out any hope, only reason I tested was because I was so nauseous last night and I had a very tiny wipe of light pink (which I have never had) so if that was implantation at all maybe its too early still if I somehow implanted late but not likely really. Gonna patiently for AF to show

Exciting you going to be in TWW soon again, all the best of luck for this cycle :)

@EK37 sorry to hear af arrived

@etaketak1991 my apps are starting to say my fertile week has started today CD12 but another empty circle on clear blue tests today! Last cycle this happened and then they suddenly went straight to static smile so who knows what’s happening.

@CatiaR still not out until af arrives! Do you usually get spotting before af?

@Roseberry22 normally no, and if I did it would be like the day before and brown, never once seen light pink so who knows, not holding much hope there especially with the bfn but I need to wait till saturday :)

Nevermind, I am proper spotting now, I shouldn't have caved and tested today as I said I would wait till AF but oh well, just waiting for AF to come, onto the next cycle, at least it was a shorter one.

@CatiaR Oh I'm sorry 😔 Like you said, at least it was a shorter cycle so you can get going sooner with the next cycle!

@Roseberry22 I'm very much the same, but I track on cheap ovulation strips. It goes from reading at almost 0 for days then shoots back up and down within 36 hours 😂

Sorry hadn’t seen the latest messages when I sent this!

Sorry to read AF is showing up 😩

@CatiaR sorry to hear you think AF is showing her face. I was really hopeful for you this cycle.
it won’t be long until you’re back in fertile week I’m sure, then you’ll have the whirlwind of it all again.

ovusense says my fertile week is 23rd dec but Premom predicts 23rd nov so let’s see where I am. Lord only knows!

@Ncl31 thanks! Been bad and caved and tested when i said I wouldn’t but oh well next time. Managed until 14dpo at least. Properly spotting as I tend to before AF so who knows might even arrive early 😊 it was a very stable chart till now and shorter cycle so that’s still good. Onto trying again shortly. Fingers crossed your ovulation is 23rd of November tho!

@Ncl31 What a window! Do you track with ovulation tests, or just BBT?

@CatiaR Honestly don't beat yourself up about testing early ❤️ TTC is tough!

I had a little bump up on my LH levels this afternoon so thinking tomorrow might be my peak 🤞

@etaketak1991 yeah I know but its more disappointing this way 😂 its all good 😊

very exciting you may be ovulating soon again and another tww got all my fingers crossed for you! 🤞

@thejollytrolleydolly how are you doing? I think you were also in tww a couple days behind me? Hope all is well 😊

Hey @CatiaR I'm just waiting for AF I'm on 12dpo and stark white tests. I've got backache and super achy boobs which I sometimes get before AF. Flo says I'm due on Saturday which I reckon is pretty accurate. No cramps yet though so we will see. I was spotting this time last month and definitely no spotting either. I'm going to test again in the morning and see but I don't know what to think either way. I've had af symptoms and pregnancy symptoms so who knows 😂 ill let you all know either way xx

@thejollytrolleydolly AF is due Saturday for me too but given my spotting it may come earlier tomorrow which I’d rather happen anyway at this point.

fingers crossed for you either way 😊

@CatiaR thank you! I'm not holding my breath but stranger things have happened!

I had the same thing last month spotting a couple of days before my period was due. At least the waiting is over and you can move onto the next cycle! Silver linings! X

@etaketak1991 i used to use OPKs until I really looked into it and read that they can be very unreliable in PCOS due to the multiple peaks of LH you can get. I found they didn’t really help.I also really struggle to do multiple tests a day when I’m at work.
ik going to see what happens with the length of my cycle this time and if it’s becoming more consistent and shorter then I might give it a shot next cycle. it was costing me a fortune too with 100 day cycles 🤦🏼‍♀️

@CatiaR I had the tiniest bit of spotting last night so I think my period is on the way 👎🏽 oh well x

@thejollytrolleydolly oh no! sorry to hear that, back to the start we go

@CatiaR yep! At least I have my bloods being checked this month and an internal scan next month so hopefully they can get to the bottom of it! Maybe I just need my tubes flushing 🤷🏽‍♀️ x

@thejollytrolleydolly i see good luck with that AF has arrived a day early. Interestingly my temps is dropping slowly but still above coverline so confused but glad we start over again.

@CatiaR yep! As Kylie Minogue once famously said - let's go round again! I am still only getting brown tinged cm and it's barely there so I'm guessing af will rear her ugly head either tonight or tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed for our next month! ❤️

@Ncl31 Ugh yeah I can imagine how expensive using ovulation strips would be! Hopefully your cycles start getting shorter 🤞

@CatiaR and @thejollytrolleydolly Sorry about AF arriving 😔 Hope it's over with quickly so you can get started on a new cycle!

I've got a bit of a puzzler. Usually my LH levels are straight up then straight down within 2 days, but I've got a slow rise going here. Any ideas whether this is a good sign, or just my body throwing another curve ball? 😂 I took the strip on a 4 hour hold with limited water intake so don't think it's a case of dilution.
