@TicklishDreamer I hope so! My due date is looming and I am absolutely dreading it. X

Do something really nice that day.

@Ella31 full blown bleeding today unfortunately. I think I knew when I took the test and it wasn’t that strong a line that things weren’t going to work out. I certainly never had that feeling of excitement I’d had previously. At least it happened on a Sunday and I’ve been able to have lots of cuddles on the sofa. Planning to try again immediately though and have just ordered some coq10 tablets to try and boost the old eggs. I also don’t normally do opks but think I will next month just in case ovulation is thrown off. It’s made me feel better to have a bit of a plan.

I'm so sorry. Xxx lots of hugs to you.

Blueskies4 · 25/02/2024 19:57

@bluebunny2 I’m so sorry, look after yourself xx

@Panda101x ah hope you’re looking after each other and glad you’ve got this group xx

Im taking coq10 too as I just hear so many experts raving about it, figured what’ve I got to lose after 4 recurrent MCs!

meepthebeep · 26/02/2024 06:43

@Panda101x and @bluebunny2, so sorry to hear of your losses 😔 take good care x

I’ve been tracking BBT and Fertility Friend has detected ovulation on CD13 (Thurs 22nd) after a positive OPK and temp rise, so today I should be 4DPO according to that. I had a temp of 36.90 yesterday and this morning at 4DPO, I’m back down to 36.65. Does that sound like the leftover oestrogen surge? Fertility Friend is now showing my luteal line at 36.65.

I’m finding temping and interpreting the temps a bit confusing, but I had the solid smiley on the ClearBlue OPK on Thursday so should have ovulated Thursday or Friday 🤷🏻‍♀️ google suggests a dip at 4DPO might be normal so we’ll see what happens tomorrow, I guess!

Hope everyone else is doing ok x

I’m 1 or 2 dpo today and we managed dtd every other day. Also we went to see a house yesterday and decided we’re gonna buy it but I’m so nervous because only the downstairs is built and we have to build the rest of the house and change the whole structure of the land around it. Estimated finish time is currently end of this year and I’m hoping this doesn’t interfere with ttc.

Ella31 · 26/02/2024 13:46

My god the difference between 8am and this afternoon. Hopefully ovulating tomorrow

So exciting for you @emmatcc1 , lots of work but a new start. I'm very near ovulation. Very dark tests so I'm probably 2 days behind you xxx

Claudiasaz · 26/02/2024 14:49

Hey everyone.. how are we all?

Any tips for not daydreaming about am I aren't I ....when procrastinating at work 😂

Claudiasaz · 27/02/2024 08:13

Nevermind pretty sure it's another month not pregnant as I have backache already. Why am I not getting pregnant when everything is supposedly normal 😭😭

Figtree11 · 27/02/2024 08:44

It’s rubbish isn’t it @Claudiasaz
Im now 6 wks since I had a period. Not pregnant. I feel very disheartened too

Claudiasaz · 27/02/2024 08:58

@Figtree11 I'm not due on until Sunday! It seems I get cramps and pains earlier and earlier every month. I don't know if I can continue trying at this stage to be honest. Hope you're feeling ok xx

It took 8 weeks for all mine @Figtree11 , it will come about.

Ella31 · 27/02/2024 17:40

@Claudiasaz I've done everything the same as before when I got pregnant and still waiting for the bfp, I think everything just falls out of our control at this point. Keep hoping.

Congrats on the house.

Blueskies4 · 27/02/2024 19:29

I think I’m about 4 DPO.. seems forever away

@Claudiasaz ah I totally feel your pain with the shortening cycles.. I didn’t ovulate ridiculously early this month but I’m not holding my breath that the spotting won’t start soon!

@emmatcc1 congratulations - hope it all falls into place for you!

Claudiasaz · 27/02/2024 19:45

@Blueskies4 I haven't actually started my period but the pains have started if that makes sense?! But the doctors have checked my hormones and said they were fine to support a pg so wtf. I am really down about it tonight. Need to decide if we continue to try as I would love one more but I don't seem to be coping very well with ttc in general.

How are you coping with the 2ww? X

Rockyslife · 27/02/2024 20:51

I am so frustrated, first cycle trying since my miscarriage and we tried so hard the week before ovulation we haven't managed to dtd to cover after ovulation, ( I don't know if my cycle is still the same as pre miscarriage) I just feel deflated as have been to tired and have overdone it a little 😢 just feel like I am putting to much pressure on us to do it more than ever

Westy22 · 28/02/2024 07:42

@Claudiasaz I understand you so much ❤️ I can honestly say this cycle I started to really focus on becoming happier in myself as I've felt so lost in the ttc world, stopped temping and didn't use opk religiously. I also dtd from cycle day 6 every other day up to cd16 using preseed, starting earlier than every other month which i think has helped as to get a faint line a 8dpo tells me i mustve ovulated earlier. The only other difference for me this cycle is I took Maca everyday. Xx it will happen for you @Claudiasaz ❤️

Claudiasaz · 28/02/2024 07:53

@Westy22 aw amazing congrats! I also did the same this month stopped using opk and just every other day as I did with my other children and felt hopeful....genuinely felt more chilled and by the feel of things....still not pregnant 😂

Westy22 · 28/02/2024 08:10

Okay maybe just take maca and try preseed then 🤣 because I dunno about you but dtd has become more of a job recently so it definitely helped 🤣

Thank you, still very scared so just taking each day as it comes. @Claudiasaz

Claudiasaz · 28/02/2024 08:31

I use pre seed sometimes but get sooo much egg whites 😂 what is maca? Xx

@Westy22

Claudiasaz · 28/02/2024 08:32

@Rockyslife I understand! It's a real need to be pregnant after loss. Sadly I'm going into cycle 6 soon. Never thought I'd be here but here I am 😂 here if you need to chat x

Westy22 · 28/02/2024 08:40

It's some kind of plant lol i took capsules of it, it helps with libido, anxiety etc and has loads of other benefits inc fertility. My friend swore by it for conceiving could just be a coincidence but I did take it everyday this cycle x @Claudiasaz

Claudiasaz · 28/02/2024 08:48

Thanks I will certainly give it a go why not?, 😂 is it ok to take with pregnacare? Sorry, I did Google but not clear!

Thanks so much for this advice willing to give it a go as clearly worked for you 🙏xx @Westy22
