TTC March 2024 ❤️✨

[RW269]

Thought I’d make a new thread for those of us Ttc in March 2024. I know some of us will cross over from end of Feb to March! Wishing everyone all the luck ✨❤️

@CadoAvo thankyou! Will try a digital tomorrow or Monday with FMU 🤞🏻 will keep you all posted!!
sending all the baby dust your way ✨ the tww is challenging isn’t it!
Hopefully the new mattress will be better!!

@TTC1990 thankyou! Keeping everything crossed! X

I’d say this looks positive 🎉 congratulations x

@Hrttc Amazing! Congratulations and welcome to the thread 😘

@TTC1990 Oh snap! I am CD11 and DH is also away until tomorrow night. Was expecting to ovulate on CD13 (Monday) which meant that timings were a bit tight. But my OPKs are still low, so perhaps it will be a bit later and poor DH can breathe when he gets back 😂

@Hrttc definitely looks positive! First one of the group I think! Congrats!

@RW269 what DPO are you on? I’m 6DPO tomorrow. I spot every month on 8DPO so I think I’ll know I’m not being even testing. Tuesday will be a big day for me

@Dogscanlookup I’m 6/7dpo at the moment so we’re pretty much the same! Ooo is that spotting before AF?
mum so impatient I want to rest now but I know fine well it wouldn’t show anyway hah!

@RW269 ah I thought you were the same as me! Yeah I’ve had spotting before AF for so long now. The earliest was at 5DPO 😭 so testing for me is usually just confirmation I’m not pregnant. If I don’t spot Tuesday / weds I’ll tell Thursday at 10DPO!

Symptom spotting here even though I promised myself I wouldn’t 😂. To be fair, last month I had every single symptom and then my period showed up early 🙄. I’ll be 7dpo tomorrow so starting my pdg tests which I’m hoping will help with the urge to take pregnancy tests. Going to try and hold out until at least Thursday when I’ll be 10po.

I’ve told my husband he’ll be getting a sperm test if I’m not pregnant this month 😂.

No luck for me this month sadly! Negative FRER at 10dpo so I really doubt anything will change now. Fingers crossed we get some more BFPs with you all 🤞🏻

If it helps I saw on another thread a lady got a negative at 12po and then a positive later.

@holdmydrinks 10dpo is still on the early side - many women who go on to get BFPs test negative at 10dpo - 34% according to: https://www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test/results-by-day-past-ovulation.php
Fingers crossed for you 🤞

@Dogscanlookup well I’ve got everything crossed for you for this week coming up!!

@YaWeeFurryBastard snap 😂 me just googling right now “my resting heart rate has increased dramatically could I be pregnant” hahahah

@holdmydrinks you’re not out yet 🤞🤞🤞 got everything crossed for the next couple days for you

@babycandy @CoolSummer89 @Dogscanlookup thankyou for your replies ❤️

Thank you all 💕 it's such an emotional ride isn't it.

@waltzingintomonday My cycle is on the shorter end so I'm due 14 March. I managed to resist early testing last month but it took a ton of willpower and I'm not sure how much anxiety it saved me to be honest. Planning to allow myself to test once a day from 9dpo this cycle and will see if that's any less stressful than waiting...sending lots of baby dust your way too!

Good luck for everyone testing next week. I’ve had mild cramps since about 6am, so possibly I’m out but I’ll know for sure next week x

Crampy, sore titties… too soon for “signs” but I’m taking them as signs 😂

This trying for a baby lark makes you ever so crazy 🤪

7dpo and the closer I get to testing the more I'm convinced I'm out. No reason other than wanting to protect myself. My bbt dropped yesterday but still above base line and it went back up today. First time ever tracking bbt and it's so confusing. Lol! Told myself I wouldn't symptom spot I've got like a heavy feeling in my lower stomach and keep getting twinges of pain today. Also oddly keep waking up at 7am for the past 3 days for no reason. But it's nice to be able to get up while my 4 year old is still sleeping.

No reason for this post other than to get out what's in my head lol! Hope everyone is feeling okay! Xx

@Chaz693 Completely understand. I also had sharp pains yesterday evening and today my lower belly feels sore. I also do my bbt evening and it’s always 37.3 but yesterday it reached above 38 and today my morning bbt went up by 0.2. I’m telling myself there’s no way we did it first try to not get my hopes up too much.

@emmatcc1 this is our first cycle too. But it took us 2 years last time to conceive our little boy who's now 4. So I think in my head there no chance of us getting pregnant the first cycle this time round even though I know it's possible. X

@Chaz693 It also took us long about 1.5 years. I was already losing hope that we would get pregnant naturally but it happened.

It’s good to see I’m not the only one symptom spotting! Today… TMI… creamy CM. I know this can be leading up to AF but I don’t usually get this much. Here’s hoping

Hello can I please join..
I have an 11yr old and 8yr old, had my second miscarriage at the end of January so have been given progesterone if I get pregnant again. It completed naturally so was told no need to wait. I ovulated just over a month later and am now 7 dpo, however we only had sex leading up and on the day of so I’m not too hopeful but am still symptom spotting and tested today- even though I know it’s too early!

I just read the link above and it’s really factual and informative regarding symptom spotting! Might be worth checking out to help relax us all!

@Lemonyfire welcome! So sorry about your MC… I’m in the same boat, and was also given progesterone to start taking next pregnancy! It made it worse for me because now I feel I need to test sooner so if I am I can start taking the progesterone immediately! Sounds like you DTD the right times and statistically most successful days so still in with a good chance

Does anyone else feel like their life is on hold until they get pregnant? I feel like I can’t plan holidays or change jobs. It’s getting me down a bit this evening as I want this so much and worried it won’t happen for us ☹️.
