AF arrived five days early and with a vengeance.

Baby dust to everyone else!

@LuceNumberTwo omg the tiktoks!! I feel like the tiktoks are mostly related to people doing IVF thats what comes up on my page! My brain literally doesnt understand if you have sex when ovulating why do you not fall 🤣🤣🤣. It seems so simple yet such a small chance of it actuallt happening. As the days go on im getting more in my head about it, I need to just chill. Also the last tww felt completely different to this one so can never actually tell I dont think. Nearly one week down though so only one to go 🙂. Are you holding out until monday X

H938 · 03/01/2024 14:15

@Pappychi ahh im sorry its so disapointing!! Hopefully next month will have a better outcome x

siobhanmt247 · 03/01/2024 15:40

Afternoon all. Can i join please?
im 37, trying for number 2. My little one is 13 months. We weren’t going to try yet as i dont think im entitled to the enhanced maternity pay from work but my mum passed away last month and i just seem to want to try now. Im tracking bbt with my watch to get ovulation dates but im really not sure how accurate it is

LuceNumberTwo · 03/01/2024 15:46

OK someone stop or help me now.. I think I've lost it. I've just taken a cheapie.. its BFN.. of course!!! Why would it not be. Then it's like I lose all confidence 🙈🙈 whyyyyy do I do it!

So no.. I did hold till Monday but I actually will now promise 😭

Hi to everyone else!
Sorry to hear that @Pappychi.. So disheartening isn't it 😕🙁 hope you get that BFP soon 🤞🤞

@siobhanmt247 I'm.so sorry to hear about your mum💔 hopefully you fall quite quickly 🤞

LuceNumberTwo · 03/01/2024 15:46

Did NOT hold till Monday 🤣

Just realised you can edit these posts 🤦‍♀️

UnderstatedElegance · 03/01/2024 16:02

@Pappychi I'm sorry to hear af has arrived this month :(
@siobhanmt247 I'm sorry to hear your mum has passed away, I always find the loss of someone I love and the new year really makes me reflect on life and death. Good luck on your ttc journey

siobhanmt247 · 03/01/2024 16:08

@LuceNumberTwo thank you. Youre not out until AF arrives!

i swear ive had implantation cramps and way more discharge then normal this soon before my period but im only 5dpo so must just be gas

siobhanmt247 · 03/01/2024 16:08

@UnderstatedElegance thank you x

AppleTree16 · 03/01/2024 16:48

Parking the bus here. Have an 18 month old that is still bfing at night so cycles are still a bit funny but getting there. AF due today but no sign and pregnancy test negative, so no idea what is going on there??
started tracking BBT this week and it’s been trending upwards so thought we might be in with a shot this month! Not feeling too pressured yet and still feeling very relaxed about it all (DC1 was conceived first cycle 😱)

Wanderingthroughparenthood · 03/01/2024 17:38

ill tell you all right now I’m bloody sick of the sight of my husband this week and he’s feeling the same 🤣 can’t wait until ovulation is past so we can not touch each other for AT LEAST a week hahahah

Newmumwales · 03/01/2024 17:40

I feel really really upset that I’ve misjudged my ovulation and it was yesterday or today by my BBT another forum said but my LH is faint. Really feel like crying. 😭 why is this all difficult! 😞 I’ve only just started tracking so hats off to you ladies who have stuck at it. I’m I’ll at the moment so DTD tonight is off the cards. I need a chat with DP that there’s only a short window to DTD.

@siobhanmt247 sending you so much love my lovely.

H938 · 03/01/2024 18:06

@Newmumwales it takes some getting used to, I would never know I ovulated quite early if i didnt test! You may still be in with a chance, dont count yourself out yet- mine are always light (even when clearblue has a peak) so who actually knows!!

@siobhanmt247 So sorry to hear about your mum. Sending love ♥️

@LuceNumberTwo okay you are too early so lets just put it down as a practice 🤣 atleast stick it out til Sat (about 9dpo i think for you!)

elleaddams · 03/01/2024 19:42

HELP, im due to peak I reckon in the next 24 hours so was planning to dtd tonight but I have the WORST heartburn of my life. Any remedies for how I can get rid of it fast?!

GoldenArrow · 03/01/2024 20:31

So sorry @siobhanmt247. Good luck with TTC, hope you fall quickly x

LuceNumberTwo · 03/01/2024 20:36

@elleaddams Rennies?! Gaviscon?! Down a pint of milk?!?!??! Hold yer breath woman & get down on it 🤣🤣🤣 seriously though heartburns the worst!! Hope you get sorted...in both respects

Awwwww why are my moods so up and down. I was totally on a high earlier now I'm just way down again!

I really want this baby 😭😭

GoldenArrow · 03/01/2024 20:38

Awk I'm really struggling to have sex this much. I'm a twice a week girl! 3 absolute max. I've not DTD since the strange discharge as don't feel like it, which makes me even more convinced its not ovulation related 🥲

Mummysparrow · 03/01/2024 20:41

BFN here so I am just waiting for AF to turn up this weekend and start the cycle again

elleaddams · 03/01/2024 20:42

@LuceNumberTwo my boyfriend just ran out to get me Rennies and Nexium 😂

LuceNumberTwo · 03/01/2024 20:45

@elleaddams Fabulous! Good man, knows he's on a promise 🤣 hope that sorts it for you! I couldn't think of anything worse than jiggling about with heartburn..🤦‍♀️ have fun!

@GoldenArrow what do you think.it might have been? I know what you mean, DTD can get a little meh for us if the drive isn't there 🙁

@Mummysparrow I'm sorry to hear, how many dpo are you?

X

Mummysparrow · 03/01/2024 20:52

@LuceNumberTwo I am 11dpo but I had a good line by this point with my pregnancy with my daughter so pretty sure I am out this month

LuceNumberTwo · 03/01/2024 20:55

@Mummysparrow I'm holding out the hope for you🤞🤞 It's so disheartening 🙁 x

Hayl777 · 03/01/2024 21:29

evening all!
So iv been ovulation testing daily after saying "if its meant to be its meant to be, lets just take it easy",
Miscarried an unplanned pregnancy in November and now it's became all consuming that we want this.
Midwife had said that woman can be more fertile immediately after a miscarriage but it was not to be in December.
Had a peak today at CD11 , luckily DTD excessively as on holiday anyway... TMI?!
so I guess i'm now on the two week wait
I have been taking supplements that I read could help increase chances, soy isoflavones and red clover and knocking back the folic acid, has anyone tried supplements with success?

GoldenArrow · 03/01/2024 21:42

@LuceNumberTwo I actually think I have a cut on my cervix tbh. I had it before years ago and they burnt/froze (can't remember) it off. Similar symptoms and seems to be quite bad after sex. Which is putting me off sex :(
