CD1 - Anyone else?

Hello all,

A new cycle unfortunately started for me today. I really thought last cycle was going to be the one but unfortunately not the case and AF has shown her ugly face!

I had an early miscarriage in early September and this was the first cycle back TTC #1

Just wondering if anyone wants to join on the journey this month - always nice to be able to speak to people in the same situation!

Baby dust to all x

@rosecbrm I'm good thank you lovely! Feeling so much more relaxed this month. We DTD a lot whilst we were away and when I'm guessing my fertile window was so I guess there might be a small chance for us this month but not obviously getting my hopes up as we weren't trying at all!

How are you xx

@Biscuitsarelife1 that sounds good! Please keep me updated, when are you due on do you know?

@rosecbrm I am not actually sure when I'm due on as I'm not going to check! Maybe around 20th? Just going to wait for AF to arrive! When are you due- must be around Xmas/Boxing Day?

@Biscuitsarelife1 @MaryHua how are you ladies doing? X

OP posts:
Biscuitsarelife1 · 11/12/2023 12:40

@rosecbrm doing okay thank you! How are you??

Nothing new from me, still haven't checked the Flo app- haven't got a clue what CD I am on, and no idea when I ovulated- I never got the usual ovulation pain again (same as last month). Don't know if one ovary just doesn't cause as much pain as the other, but I have no idea when it happened! Have had some of the usual pelvic cramping the last few days (is this actually normal at this part of the cycle?!). Also still no idea when I'm due on! Assuming next week some point!

@Biscuitsarelife1 amazing, well done for resisting! Probably made you feel so much better not having the pressure!

All good over here, I'm in a similar position in that I haven't been tracking but I think I'm around CD13 so am in my fertile period, but not sure when I will be ovulating, assuming over the next few days!

Keep us updated

@rosecbrm I know I can't believe I've managed to resist checking- been very tempted but I know there's not much point as I'm probably not pregnant this month as we haven't been able to 'try'!

You never know @Biscuitsarelife1 - I feel like anything could happen!!

Hiya @rosecbrm thanks for checking in!
All ok, so far not much to report. Trying to limit my testing but my anxiety is through the roof at certain times of the day if I don't keep myself busy. I can't seem to think rationally or logically at all, and it's all new to me as it's my first.
Just hoping I can get through the next few weeks unscathed until my early scan.

You just never know what could happen for either of you @Biscuitsarelife1
All it takes is one lucky time. Keep us posted x

@MaryHua glad to hear you're okay lovely!

Ahh yes I would be the exact same, it's hard to trust your body is doing what it needs to but I'm sure everything is all okay! When is your scan again? X

OP posts:
Biscuitsarelife1 · 12/12/2023 14:09

Ahh well you never know I guess but not getting my hopes up!! I just caved and looked, apparently ovulated last Tuesday (I'm not so sure it was but who knows), and due on Monday or Tuesday, so a weeks time!

@Biscuitsarelife1 keep us updated!

I think I'm due to ovulate anytime around now!

OP posts:
MaryHua · 13/12/2023 07:25

@rosecbrm I had a scan booked for 21st December but cancelled it as I would be just 6 weeks then and I'm scared that if it's too early to see a heartbeat then I'd panic all of Christmas so rescheduled to 7th January instead. X

Any update @Biscuitsarelife1 ?

How are you @MaryHua x

Hiya @rosecbrm !
All ok so far 🤞
Just can't fully relax or even look beyond January in my head.
I have managed to get a scan booked for in Ireland instead though on 27th December - I'll be 7 weeks, so that's more manageable. Don't think I could have waited 3 more weeks!

How are you? Do you think you're possibly in the 2WW?

rosecbrm · 16/12/2023 22:29

@MaryHua ahh that's exciting, only just over a week to go 🤞🏼

I'm not sure tbh, I think I am potentially ovulating today.. had some EWCm the past few days and today I've felt some twinges, so if I am that's a few days later than normal for me! We'll see though 😅 x

Biscuitsarelife1 · 17/12/2023 06:09

No updates from me girls. Due Tuesday so only like 2 days now!

MaryHua · 17/12/2023 18:00

@rosecbrm well my ovulation was a week late last month as you know... so you just never know! 🤞

Good luck to you both this month xx

@Biscuitsarelife1 fingers crossed for you lovely, keep us updated!

@MaryHua mine will be nearly a week late, I've had more EWCM today and ended up doing an OPK which was a blazing positive, so I actually think my peak must be today with ovulation tomorrow maybe! CD19 today! X

OP posts:
MaryHua · 17/12/2023 18:42

I ovulated on CD21 @rosecbrm so late ovulation doesn't rule anything out! Keep us posted xx
