Morning ladies.

AF showed up yesterday 16th Oct Booooo. This is my 9th cycle. Made an apt with GP as I am over 35 and we really tried everything so now need some tests and OH to.
TTC No.2. LO is 2 this month. Was hoping for 2 under 2. But ah well...... We plan but God is the best of planners.

Please join! And hopefully we see some BFPs this month.

6DPO today and have a large amount of EWCM , never had this post ovulation before. I track ovulation and can physically feel my body ovulating so I know I definitely did ovulate when I did. Trying to be chill and not symptom spot this month but this is hard to miss 😳

Tigger1116 · 17/11/2023 21:47

I’m 5dpo and the last 2day I was the opposite dry nothing which is so unlike me and ache boobs that’s all I’ve noticed at the moment

narwhalsarereal · 17/11/2023 22:17

10dpo
I've had mild cramping in the lower middle of my belly a few times today, feel extremely tired, slightly nauseous (like I feel off but not like I'll be sick at all) & dizziness.

I've also gone between constipated to really not, iykwim.
Not due on till a week today though and I really want to wait longer to test

HM2022 · 17/11/2023 23:49

@dg3131 I had this too at 6po, from about 5dpo to now (10dpo), I have no idea what’s going on! I have had cramps throughout the day today, feeling like AF cramps but not due on till Monday, I have my fingers crossed for the both of us🤞🏼x

dg3131 · 18/11/2023 07:30

@HM2022 have you tested yet? I'm going to do one at 10dpo , good luck 😬🤞🏼

Does anyone know if there's a December thread yet or is it too early? I couldn't find one but it's only half way through nov 😂

12DPO today.. the day I got my BFP in April..... do I test.....

Tested yesterday morning and BFN. (Had a bfn in April at 11dpo too)
Had mild cramping for the last couple of days. Very sore boobs. Praying it's not AF 🤞🏼 we're moving house next week and it would be the perfect start to a new beginning 🥹

WishingUponARainbow · 18/11/2023 09:42

Also had my progesterone re-tested on Tuesday and it came back much higher (49.6) than the previous result (11.2). Looks like I timed the blood test too late last time and the higher reading is much more promising 🤞🏼
Also on googling that higher figure it was flagging up far more results to do with early pregnancy 👀

Jee95 · 18/11/2023 15:09

I’m 4dpo. I have no symptoms - it’s our 10th cycle trying now.

Aaj04 · 18/11/2023 16:01

Hi all,

So lovely to see those BFPs congratulations to all ❤️❤️
9 DPO here got BFN this morning.. not feeling too hopeful

I have a few questions..

We're TTC baby #3, can anyone share their experience? Did it take longer to conceive?

Also.. I'm in London and I cant get hold of any first response pregnancy test! Amazon don't do them anymore I think.

Bealilet · 18/11/2023 16:25

Joining 👋🏻 hello guys!!

hope all are well, congrats to those with BFPs.

had a complete miscarriage 2 weeks ago, no idea what day cycle were on but trying again for baby #2.

LH tests never work on me, so just winging it!

ceruleansky · 18/11/2023 23:19

I know it's a negative because this is not the kind of line you expect to see at 13-14dpo. That evap line is cruel. 😪
AF due today..

I'll look out for the December thread. ☺️

Hello everyone. I'm 11 DPO this photo was taken about 4 minutes after dipping and I did another one after so I know it's not a evap but I'm still testing negative on clear blue digital ultra early? They both have the same sensitivity, so I don't know what to think??

9DPO 🥹🥹

TrishyLou1111 · 20/11/2023 09:56

Hi ladies

Can anyone shed a light?

Im 12DPO today.

I have done 5 Clear Blue Ultra Early and all show a faint positive with the latest being the strongest. Every other test is negative. The strip ones ect. I have also done a CB uktra early digi that says not pregnant.

What is happening?

5 tests can't be dudd surely? I've ordered some FRER that I'm hoping will have a pink line!! 😫😫

Anyone else experienced this and had a positive?

Thanks in advance and congrats on all the BFPs xx

Tigger1116 · 20/11/2023 22:18

8dpo 9 tomorrow had lots of aches in the back of my legs never had this felt a bit nauseous lots of saliva and period type pains and AF is due Saturday I’m tempted to test in the morning

WishingUponARainbow · 20/11/2023 22:25

Well that's me out again. AF arrived today.

Will be taking a break and focussing on the house move this month - we are living apart for a few weeks whilst our new house is being finished so will likely miss the fertile window.
No point stressing about it so will skip December.
Congratulations to everyone with a BFP in November and see you all in the new year ☺️

(Merry Christmas I suppose 🎄🤣)

Jee95 · 21/11/2023 09:42

Could someone give me some advice or reassurance. I’m currently 6dpo and this is our 10th cycle trying to conceive our first.

We spoke to my GP about 4 months ago who said to wait a year (which would be Jan time).

I currently don’t have any symptoms, besides slight sore boobs which I get anyway before my period. I’m taking folic acid and a few other supplements - the GP said royal jelly is good - but anecdotal.

I really think that I can’t have children. This month has been calm and I’m not fixating as much as I would be. Last month I had lots of pregnancy symptoms that I’d never experienced before and got two faint lines for a pregnancy test - but obviously nothing happened.

Blueberry1990 · 21/11/2023 10:05

Does anyone see a very faint second line or am I imagining it?

If you had faint lines it could be that you had a chemical pregnancy. I'm on my 18th cycle trying to conceive my first now but doctors are being useless to me since I've had two miscarriages and an ectopic. I knew it would take a while for me as I was diagnosed with PCOS and Endometriosis when I was 16

Don't give up hope at all it's not likely at all you're unable to have kids. It'll happen one day :) if nothings happened by January go back to the doctors and they should be able to help with some medication

Kfish56 · 21/11/2023 14:08

Hello,
can anyone help me. I’m on cycle day 21 today. I had a positive opk on 17th November, really clear ovulation pains and my BBT confirmed I ovulated. My temp has been up for the past 3 days and then this morning it went back down below cover line. I decided to do another opk today as the temp dip seemed unusual for me and I have another positive opk.
does anyone know what might be going on?

Hi,

Can anyone help? I'm using the pink clearblue ovulation sticks and normally do it first thing in the morning. Was running around getting DC ready and forgot to check it and when I then looked it had gone off so took the test strip out and a blank circle showed up so assuming it was blank.

Decided to test this afternoon and a smiley face came up so now I'm wondering if I'm about to ovulate or if I'm mucked it up testing twice in one day? The control line on the stick looked quite strong this morning which I thought was weird as flo days ovulation tomorrow and I'm normally a couple of days after that and then the control line this afternoon is strong and looks the same as it normally does when I get my peak.

Is it likely that the test is right and I'm about to ovulate (earlier than normal) or have I mucked it up? 😂

Slowcookertea · 22/11/2023 05:57

Hello, I wonder if anyone could help!
I posted a while ago when I was CD2 and have since been reading.

I am now CD 25 and 9 DPO.

I tested this morning (after being so sure I could be patient and wait for my missed period!)

Ive never taken a test for as this is cycle 1…but is this two lines…? It’s just a cheap one from Superdrug which says I can test 4 days before my missed period which is today/tomorrow.

I can’t decide if it’s just making it up!

thank you!
