Hello,

I am very much a newbie to this (first post), I am 34F in a same-sex relationship and we did our first unmedicated IUI last week (now 4dpo).

Is anyone else currently in the TTW and would like to chat?

I honestly didn't realise how slowly time would go, feels like these 4 days have taken forever.

@JJM13 @OMGTTC - good luck with the coming days! Hopefully there'll be some BFP on this thread.

@Twomumfamily sorry to hear - are you going straight to another IUI round?

Twomumfamily · 10/10/2023 12:39

@AnnieStar12 Yep, we are doing unmedicated so can do back to back! Back in for a scan in 10 days and getting back on the train!

@Twomumfamily ah sorry to hear that! Good luck for next cycle!

fr4zzledmum · 10/10/2023 13:08

@OMGTTC wow, hopefully it'll get darker. Have you tested again?

@kat167 I agree with you there - testing early has been a terrible idea 😂

@Twomumfamily sorry to hear that - hope the next round for you goes well!

I'm 11DPO today, AF due Friday. Probably going to test one last time tomorrow, as I tested positive at 12DPO with my DD, but then I'll just wait for my period.

OMGTTC · 10/10/2023 13:14

Thank you @fr4zzledmum I haven’t yet - weirdly I’m a bit scared to?! I was really expecting another BFN when I tested yesterday so I feel a bit shocked still… I told DH that I’d tested early and he was a bit 🙄 so I think I’ll wait till the weekend when AF is due to test again.

good luck, everyone 🙏🏼

fr4zzledmum · 10/10/2023 13:15

@OMGTTC haha I haven't told DH I've tested early as he would definitely think I was neurotic!

Bex4567 · 10/10/2023 14:48

Sorry to hear that hopefully one of here will get a bfp soon im heading into month 3 now just waiting for af to finish

Bex4567 · 10/10/2023 14:50

Congrats let's hope it gets darker

BlurryMemories · 10/10/2023 15:54

Hi all, glad to see this thread, and also amazed I'm in the same boat... at last! 38 and ttc #1. Feel very old 😬

8 days DPO, also doing IUI (second attempt). Been absolutely shattered the past few days which obviously I'm secretly hoping is a symptom although way too early!

AF due Fri/Sat (25 day cycles at present). But could be as late as Monday. I've a busy weekend so telling myself I'll resist testing until Monday, but obviously if AF doesn't arrive on Fri I won't be able to stop myself!

Can you imagine what all this was like before home testing? Just having to wait...

fr4zzledmum · 11/10/2023 07:17

Well, I reckon I'm out this month too. 12DPO today and still testing negative - AF due Friday but can sometimes be a couple of days late.

So it's just a waiting game for AF now.

Polkadots458 · 11/10/2023 07:33

10dpo for me today and Bfn this morning. I realllyyy hoped this month would be the month as my miscarried baby would have been due soon 😞.
This is all so so hard.
Sending to love to everyone else who is finding it all really rough at the moment.

SnookyPook · 11/10/2023 08:25

Morning everyone... a bit of hopefully good news for the thread! 14dpo... well, this just goes to show you are truly never out until AF (doesn't) appear... really didn't think this was my month and have literally been expecting AF every time I've been to the toilet the last couple of days with the cramps etc.

We also only DTD twice this fertile week. One the night before peak opk and one the night after.

I'm feeling extremely cautious after the year I've had but 🤞🏻 This line is also stronger than my CP last cycle ever got....

Bex4567 · 11/10/2023 10:11

Ong absolutely amazing news so glad someone got there bfp on here...and that's weird u said u only did it twice as another girl another thread said she was getting bfn doing it every other day ..did it twice during her fertile window and got her bfp..massive congrats hope this is me soon..going to just a do it a few time this month 🤣🤣

SnookyPook · 11/10/2023 10:12

@Bex4567 haha thanks - maybe less dtd is the way forward?! 😜

Bex4567 · 11/10/2023 10:17

I'm going to try this this month much to my partners discust 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

zobodo · 11/10/2023 10:22

@SnookyPook congrats! Hope it all goes well.

I’m 11DPO today, and now have a throat infection, don’t plan to test again until Friday/Saturday when AF is due, assuming it doesn’t arrive. I’m not too hopeful but also don’t have that ‘AF is coming’ feeling either so will just have to wait and see. It’s felt all consuming this month so hoping I can relax a bit more next cycle if that’s the way it goes!

fr4zzledmum · 11/10/2023 10:53

@SnookyPook congrats! Nice to see a positive line in this thread.

PrincessPrawn · 11/10/2023 14:37

Congrats @SnookyPook - sending sticky baby dust your way!

My husband has just told me he’s away with work for 5 of my fertile days this month…he’s going to have the night of his life on that one remaining day 😅

Muddysocks1 · 11/10/2023 14:59

@PrincessPrawn 😂😂😂😂

@SnookyPook ooh 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

zobodo · 12/10/2023 08:13

I think I’m out for this cycle, starting to get some very light AF cramps and a stark white test at 12DPO this morning (I know it’s still before AF which is due tomorrow/Sat, but I had a clear bfp easy@home with DS at this stage, sometimes you just know).

Sending baby dust to everyone for their next cycle!

Bex4567 · 12/10/2023 08:49

Good luck to everyone going into month 3 and still waiting for af

kat167 · 12/10/2023 14:06

@SnookyPook congrats! That's great ☺️

kat167 · 12/10/2023 14:10

AF has still yet to make an appearance for me. I'm only one day late but it's very unusual. I'm really frustrated because I know it's coming. I had some vfl over the weekend but didn't grow darker and I've tested negative today on a regular test.

I just wish AF would arrive so I could turn the page.

fr4zzledmum · 12/10/2023 17:24

@kat167 I'm feeling the same way - AF due tomorrow and I know I'll be late (not unusual to be a couple of days late), but it's going to drive Mr insane.

I'm going to test tomorrow at 14DPO just to put it to bed really.

Bex4567 · 13/10/2023 01:17

Good luck people who are still in with a chance
