@TwinkleStarrr I'm sorry lovely. Mine still hasn't arrived. Was due Sunday so a good few days late now but have had on/off spotting.

@TTCbaby1soph ooo good question and I have no idea. I'd assume so, my ovulation tends to be CD14ish, so if CD1 is later than expected I'd imagine I'd ovulate a few days later. Do you use OPKs?

OP posts:
TTCbaby1soph · 05/12/2023 12:28

CD1 was super early (only had a 22 day cycle last month) but lasted longer than normal around 9 days minus the spotting. So it’s more the fact that my AF lasted 9 days instead of my usual 5. Yep use OPKs nothing as of yet

TTCbaby1soph · 05/12/2023 12:29

also… when are you planning to test 😯

TwinkleStarrr · 05/12/2023 12:32

TTCbaby1soph · 05/12/2023 12:11

Should be in my fertile window at the moment. Flo predicting ovulation on Saturday. Does anyone know if your AF lasts longer would that effect ovulation date? Like would I ovulate later than usual??

Good question, I looked a bit online but no obvious answer, it only talks about the cycle length not much about the period length..

TTCbaby1soph · 05/12/2023 13:10

Guess I’ll just have to wait to find out lol 😂 I looked online too can’t find much

Starlight11111 · 05/12/2023 13:43

@TTCbaby1soph keep us posted! I'm sure there is no "normal", we're all different eh?

Oh I've been testing daily, total BFNs. Obviously reading every success story going about late BFPs but really I'm just waiting for AF, she's being cruel and I've been feeling like she's imminent for about 5 days!

OP posts:
Starlight11111 · 06/12/2023 08:08

AF has arrived. 4 days late, who knows why. Anyway, CD1 again :)

Good luck for this cycle ! Horrible when af shows but at least it gets us onto a new cycle. My predicted O day was yesterday but as changed to tomorrow as I seem to have peaked today I think (I’ve attached a photo) will test again later to see if it’s any darker. So I’m assuming I’ll be ovulating tomorrow. Lots of CM today and had a bit of pain yesterday and today so was thinking maybe I am Oing today. Would your test line still be as dark when you are ovulating or does it usually go lighter (I know it’s different for every woman but what’s the norm lol)
managed to DTD yesterday and the day before but not hopeful at getting much more in as DH is working today / night and tomorrow. We’ll see

TTCbaby1soph · 09/12/2023 17:06

Forgot to attach photo

3DPO - anybody else?
TTCbaby1soph · 09/12/2023 17:07

Test line on the left control on the right

TTCbaby1soph · 09/12/2023 17:20

Also having O pains now

Winterwonderland1 · 09/12/2023 17:33

Hi ladies, hope it’s ok if I join! I’m 11/12 DPO today and I’ve felt nauseas on and off the last few days, but particularly today. Also come down with thrush so don’t know if I am run down or if they are early symptoms. Had some very light spotting yesterday night (11pm) (just once when I wiped) pink in colour so wondering if it could be implantation bleeding. Did a test this morning and again now and thought I could see something, can anyone have a look?

3DPO - anybody else?
Starlight11111 · 09/12/2023 20:22

@TTCbaby1soph this looks like a great OPK! My understanding was that generally when you get a positive OPK you will ovulate within about 24 hours. I've got everything crossed for you this cycle!!!!! I've already warned my other half that when I get my positive OPK this cycle we'll be very busy for a day or two 😂

@Winterwonderland1welcome! I am struggling to see a line but it could be the quality of the photo / be too early yet! Xx

TTCbaby1soph · 10/12/2023 08:42

lots And lots of ewcm this morning! Managed to get one more BD in by force lol he was so tired but I just felt like I wouldn’t of been happy we were covered if we didn’t. Now officially in the 2ww although according to Flo I’m still fertile tomorrow but my body is saying I probably ovulated late last night. BD a lot this week so really hoping. Last cycle before my NHS gyne appointment in Jan

3DPO - anybody else?
TTCbaby1soph · 10/12/2023 08:44

Hey I can’t quite see a line there but I’ve never seen one irl so not the best person to ask lol. Let us know how you get on ?? Maybe it will progress in the next couple of days. Are you TTC your first ? How long have u been TTC for if you don’t mind me asking x

Starlight11111 · 11/12/2023 23:03

@TTCbaby1soph yay you seem really well covered this month 🤞🏻🤞🏻 how do you confirm ovulation, do you use OPKs/temp?

I'm CD6 today but my AF was super short this month so ill start using OPKs in the next couple days 🤞🏻 gearing up for another week or so of BD 😂 xx

OP posts:
Starlight11111 · 11/12/2023 23:04

@TTCbaby1soph sorry for the stupid question I realised of course you use OPK as you posted a pic a few days ago 😂 silly me! Really got fingers crossed for you this month!!!

OP posts:
TTCbaby1soph · 17/12/2023 13:13

How’s everyone getting on? AF is due to arrive in the next couple of days according to Flo - cycle seems to be getting back to normal I hope from last months weirdness. I approx 7/8 dpo today - have had AF style cramps last night and day before - I was sure AF was going to arrive but nothing yet thankfully. Also had sore nips which I don’t usually get. Nothing else to report lol

TwinkleStarrr · 17/12/2023 17:18

@TTCbaby1soph it's good that your cycle seems to be getting back to normal, when are you planning on testing? Crossing everything for you!

I have had a peak on OPK this morning , so hopefully ovulating today or tomorrow, trying to dtd but it's not easy with guests being here overnight 😅

How is everyone getting on?

TTCbaby1soph · 17/12/2023 19:36

@TwinkleStarrr going to try not to test this month at least until I’m reasonably late. I’ve been really chilled about it this month. Cut back on the supplements and not been thinking about things too much in this tww but we’ll see. Everything crossed for you this month. Where is everyone else in there cycles now?

Starlight11111 · 20/12/2023 00:20

Day 3 of flashing smiles on CB digital over here so hoping for the solid smile tomorrow! Currently CD 14.

@TTCbaby1soph how exciting that you're so far into the TWW already! I hope the distraction of Christmas is helping take some pressure off this month.

@TwinkleStarrr YAY for the peak!! Did you manage to DTD with the guest saga?!

I didn't even think about taking aspirin again this cycle and I don't think I will now unless I magically get a BFP.

Really hope you're both well and gearing up for a joyful Christmas. I've got my 🤞🏻 crossed we get some happy news on this thread sometime very soon! Xx

OP posts:
Starlight11111 · 21/12/2023 09:23

CD16 and finally got my solid smile! Think I'll count ovulation day as CD17 and the TWW begins!

OP posts:
TTCbaby1soph · 21/12/2023 09:28

BD time for you 😁😁💃 AF just arrived over here! At least I got a 28 day cycle but yea disappointing as usual. Just got my Gynea aapointment to look forward to now in Jan x

TTCbaby1soph · 22/12/2023 09:20

TMI but I’ve been passing really big clots the beginning of this period - even when I showered one big one fell into the bath. I’ve never had clots like it before normally will have small ones when I have a heavy period but this is really unusual…. Any ideas ?

Starlight11111 · 23/12/2023 00:17

@TTCbaby1soph BD as much as we had energy for 😂

I'm so sorry your AF arrived. What shitty timing, are you ok? Re the clots could it sadly be a chemical, did you have any pregnancy symptoms at all? My experience with my chemical was lots of clots and I've no other experiences to tie them to. I really hope your gynae appointment gets things moving for you!
