TTC NOVEMBER 2023

[MixedCouple]

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.

I think this could be right! Sometimes my OPKs would be different depending on the time of day as well. Maybe test again this morning to confirm?

@TrishyLou1111 are you 100% sure on your ovulation dates? I had something similar, kept testing and got stronger and stronger lines so definitely pregnant, but realised the progression was maybe more consistent with conceiving the second time we dtd that week i.e. 3 days later than I thought (I didn't do opks so was estimating based on period dates)

Just got mt BFP on a clearblue digital at 10dpo 🎉🎉 first full month of trying and using OPKs and I have PCOS with cycles ranging from 30-70 days

Well, it was my first month using OPKS and whatnot, so I can't be 100% certain.

AF is due today, and she hasn't arrived yet.

I did a FRER, and that was negative, and i have period cramps, so I think I'm out. I'll never use the CB again! 7 intotal that gave me positives, and they definitely weren't evaps. They came up in the time frame. How are they allowed to sell them!

How are you getting on xx

The instructions say not to test again after getting a smiley face so maybe I just need to hope for the best and assume it's right 😅

@Optimistic2021 Ahh I see! I only used the cheap strip ones so I was peeing on them through the day! 😂
I’d say if you’re unsure, be cautious, treat it as positive and it won’t do any harm!

@Blueberry1990 congratulations! 🥳

I might start using those instead, saves any confusion! 😂

Joining :) finally got my positive after 9 months ttc following a mmc

Hi, I am hoping to join, I am suspected 10/11DP although not confirmed as I have irregular cycles and don't temp. I am CD 54 (PCOS). I never have natural cycles and have had many transfers from IVF which have sadly ended with a MC or CP.

I did a test at lunchtime today suspecting it to be negative and to my surprise I thought something was catching my eye. I then left it for a little whilst on an online call for work and caught a glimpse of the line again. I retook a photo (pic 2, white background) and the line that I thought I could see was much more obvious. Now, I’m aware that the second pic is way out of the time limit to check the test but… I’m not sure if it’s just more obvious or if it’s an evap. It’s full thickness and not a slim line but I can’t work out colour as it’s too light.

Any thoughts?

AF is two days late.
I still can't believe it??? Somehow I can't believe it unless I hear the doctor confirm it!

Why are two of them so faint.. 🤔

Ahhh @ceruleansky I’m so pleased for you!!

Aw @ceruleansky this is amazing. I know how you feel - I have taken 5 tests, 3 different brands and am still unsure haha. Congratulations though, that’s defos positive tests!

Congratulations @ceruleansky and @Elg90!

@LetstalkaboutBruno I'm afraid those do look negative atm. But hopefully things change

Negative this morning for me 👎🏼. I kinda expected as much but with a little hope sprinkled on top.

@ceruleansky oh wow!!! Fantastic news for you, so pleased!!

@LetstalkaboutBruno mine are neg too so we’re in the same boat. On to next month!

Can anyone help I’m 12dpo and negative test am I out af due tomorrow or Sunday been having different symptoms tired leg aches extra saliva cm and boobs hurt like never before so these are unusual for me am I out

@MrsHousePlant
Thank you so much!! How's everything coming along?

@Outliers
Thank you!! How is your health? 😊

@hicketypickety
Thank you for all your reassuring words!! 💜
How are you doing?

I did a beta hcg blood test and it was 400 so now I can rest assured. 😀

@ceruleansky a funny mix of symptoms so far but all good 😊first appointment is just over a week away. Can’t wait to have you join us over in the pregnancy forums! How are you feeling?

@MrsHousePlant
Ooh what are you feeling? Yes I'd love to join I have soooo many questions since this is my first time lol!
I don't feel anything except something like period cramps, to be honest..
My app says 4 weeks and 3 days

@ceruleansky its my first too! Cramps were my first symptom too. I’m 7 weeks today and have had a bit of nausea, no appetite, heartburn, sore boobs and cramps but my main symptom is fatigue!! Luckily no sickness yet and I’m hoping it stays that way 😂

@ceruleansky I'm doing well thank you. 5 weeks today and a little hormonal - which DH is very thankful for lol.

Wishing you a smooth and pleasant pregnancy

@MrsHousePlant
That's still a lot of symptoms! I don't know if I've had these, I haven't thought about it or noticed.. it'll be interesting to see what each of us experience as the weeks pass. And yes, no morning sickness please!

@Outliers
Haha!! I think our timelines are around the same. I'm 4 weeks 5 days. I didn't even know that the week count starts from your LMP.. 😅 I thought it starts from conception..

Thanks & I wish you the same!!

@Tigger1116
I think you should wait and test after AF is late. My 14dpo line was invisible, I thought I was out then.

My doctor wants me to repeat my beta hcg test tomorrow. She expecting the count to be double of what it was yesterday. Since I have cramps, she said we have to be cautious and she's put me on another medicine which is supposed to help the little bean stick.
DH and I are a bit nervous now. Although my cramping had reduced..
