AF showed up today, so I'm out. I got my hopes up for a moment because I'm a couple days late which is odd for me.

Going to allow myself a glass of wine tonight. I'm a bit more disappointed than I thought I'd be 😔

So sorry, it hurts doesn't it. Sending love and I hope you enjoyed your wine!

Today's test.... looks similar to yesterday's so unsure. Still no AF but lots of CM?? 2 days late now. I'm supposed to be 16DPO today but I think it's more likely I didn't read the OPK correct (as I'm new to using them) and I'm 11-16DPO.

What do you ladies think?

I wish I could say I see something but I don't think I can. I'm not the best with these photos though and really got fingers crossed for you!

Who is gearing up for another go ladies? I just got my first flashing smile on clearblue advanced ovulation test so assume I'll be ovulating in the next 2/3 days x

CurlyWurly1991 · 15/11/2023 13:21

@Nic17 gearing up too, I’m CD11 I think and it would be early for me to ovulate within the next few days but it’s been irregular lately so who knows?! Am doing the cheap OPKs anyway. Best of luck to you this cycle 🤞

TTCbaby1soph · 15/11/2023 14:35

Same here ladies had what I thought was peak OPK yesterday so DTD last night but this morning seems to be slightly darker so maybe I peaked today? Angus Cactus seems to be doing something as im CD 13 today so nice middle O day and been having more O style cramps. Feeling positive - what do u guys think based on the pic ??

3DPO - anybody else?
TTCbaby1soph · 15/11/2023 14:36

This is from last night, I’ve run out of Clear Blue digitals. I usually use IC’s until they are darI & then confirm with CB digi smiley face. I don’t temp

@TTCbaby1soph defo peak today I think!!! 👏🏻👏🏻

OP posts:
TTCbaby1soph · 15/11/2023 23:45

Ah hopefully I will be covered ok - DTD just twice in fertile window though once being last night (as thought I had peaked) and then 2 days before that. DH is really sick and I’m not too well myself so I don’t think it’s gonna happen tonight or in the morning already put the pressure on last night 🥴🥴 how is everyone is getting on??

Starlight11111 · 16/11/2023 00:26

@TTCbaby1soph I don't blame you. Hopefully you're well covered 🤞🏻

Ladies which supplements are you all taking?? I've been taking pregnacare before conception, higher dose folic acid (high BMI), anything else I should be taking?

Given miscarriage followed by chemical I'm tempted to self medicate with Asprin from ovulation this time around, I have a friend that did that after 4 losses and is now 26 weeks but I'm scared to do the wrong thing xxxx

Starlight11111 · 19/11/2023 01:56

How are you all doing?

I've had 3 days of flashing smileys on CB advanced so hoping for peak tomorrow. Managed to DTD twice in those days and hoping to tomorrow also but partner isn't well 😕 x

TTCbaby1soph · 19/11/2023 20:07

Hi, same I’m about 4dpo today managed to DTD 3 times in fertile window although really counting 2 times as the first BD session was during the night of the 1st day in fertile window so quite far off. How’s everyone else doing ??

CurlyWurly1991 · 20/11/2023 11:50

About 1dpo, think we gave it a good go! Fingers crossed for all of us this cycle

Starlight11111 · 21/11/2023 08:02

@TTCbaby1soph we BD'd exactly the same 😅 officially 1DPO, here we go again.....!

TTCbaby1soph · 22/11/2023 12:19

7dpo today and just had reddish brown when wiping - never had this before so early. I hope AF is not coming early. It’s already been a weird cycle with cramps. I also had cramps and bad diarrhoea all night I couldn’t sleep. I’m hoping it’s not the Agnus Cactus I took this month messing things up. How are you all doing??

TTCbaby1soph · 22/11/2023 12:20

Not due on for another week :/

TwinkleStarrr · 22/11/2023 12:25

@TTCbaby1soph I hope it's was implantation for you, baby dust ✨🙏🏻

I m 2 dpo, planning on not testing before 12 dpo God willing.

May the force be with us all 😄

TTCbaby1soph · 22/11/2023 12:37

I really hope so 🤞 it does really feel like AF is coming though. So strange. Sending bevy dust your way too!

Starlight11111 · 22/11/2023 15:43

@TTCbaby1soph ooooo this sounds like it could be a good sign! In my two short experiences being pregnant I didn't have implantation bleeding but I think it's super common?! Got everything crossed for you, when do you think you'll test?

2DPO for me. Far too early to be spotting symptoms. Randomly could NOT stop crying on and off yesterday which obviously has nothing to do with anything at this point but it was very unlike me. This is my first cycle taking baby aspirin and I started to wonder if it's somehow heightened hormones. Xxxxxx

OP posts:
TTCbaby1soph · 23/11/2023 09:06

It is hard! Never had a positive in all these years so I’ve given up getting my hopes up. 8dpo spotting has practically stopped just a little bit when I wipe and also cramps from yesterday have stopped now. Just a waiting game as usual. What about all of you??

CurlyWurly1991 · 23/11/2023 17:05

@TTCbaby1soph i totally get that. It’s important to protect ourselves. I have been TTC 6months and every cycle managed to convince myself I’m pregnant and got drawn into symptom spotting. It’s always disappointing when AF comes. I almost don’t believe it either since I have by then convinced myself it’s implantation spotting etc. I did also bleed lightly from about 9dpo for 2 weeks with my first child and got a late hpt. I am 4dpo and feeling the mild cramps I usually do… too early to get properly into the Googling just yet 😂

TTCbaby1soph · 23/11/2023 19:00

@CurlyWurly1991 yeah it’s horrible isn’t it. Feel like I’ll never me a mother 😢 spotting has come back now more pink than brown and some cramps. I did notice that it seems to start about an hour after I take the Agnus cactus so I’m not sure if it’s related. Maybe I should stop with it. Really hoping AF doesn’t come I’ll be so vexed having a 21 day cycle 😠 feeling really crampy tho so I’m expecting it to

TTCbaby1soph · 23/11/2023 19:01

@CurlyWurly1991 do you remember what CD you got your BFP on your first pregnancy?

TTCbaby1soph · 23/11/2023 19:02

And what was your spotting like ?? @CurlyWurly1991

CurlyWurly1991 · 23/11/2023 21:13

Hi @TTCbaby1soph I didn’t get a (faint) bfp on a frer until 18dpo with my daughter. I was using fertility friend and only dtd twice that cycle, I can tell that ovulation was confirmed for that date so no doubt I was just a late shower on tests . Spotting was more like light bleeding - had to use sanitary towels etc. 9dpo onwards. Got scanned and all fine , that baby is now 9!
I take agnus castus as well and that is unlikely to cause the spotting. There’s an old thread I’ve been reading on spotting and TTC that is v reassuring… let me try and link to it .Spotting and TTC
