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 ✨❤️

@RW269 I also caved and tested this morning. 9dpo! Don't think I've ever had a test look so negative. Almost felt like it was judging me! But if I stick to my 26 day cycle I'll come on tomorrow and just wanted some sort of hope that it wouldn't turn up! Been in a foul mood all day because of it. X

Ah solidarity with all those getting early negatives today, it’s the same for me even my best line eyes got nothing 😂. I was crying this morning, my poor husband is probably getting sick of me! He’s really good and supportive to be fair and I’m kind of surprised he’s agreed to a sperm test no questions asked, I think he’s just surprised how emotional I am about the whole thing.

Im having a gin now as pretty convinced I’m out this cycle and need something to cheer me up 🍸.

@YaWeeFurryBastard I'll be having a drink this weekend just to make myself feel better. Thought I'd be use to it by now after 2 years of doing it before having my son. But it doesn't get any easier second time round. Really wish I could be one of those laid back people but I've never been known for being patient lol 😂

@Chaz693 & @YaWeeFurryBastard it’s sooo disheartening isn’t it, but we’re all still in the game AF hasn’t arrived yet for us! We’ve got this ladies!!
ita so emotional though, the slightest thing is making me want to rage today 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ah I totally get you. I think for me it’s because I’m a bit of a control freak and this is one of the few things in my life which is totally beyond my control and down to luck. I did not realise it would be this hard 😂

oh ladies I’m so sorry everyone is feeling down and like they’re out this month! But all early testing so chins up!

and fair enough with the alcohol as a pick me up, it’s always the best part of a BFN 😂

I’ve had no spotting today so I’m stupidly hopeful this could be my month. Who knows

@YaWeeFurryBastard it’s just that isn’t it, like no matter what you do it’s all luck of the draw!

@Dogscanlookup you’re right! We’re all so early still! That is a good sign I’ve got my fingers crossed for you!!

Science says there’s 30% chance so going by that at least 3 of us are due a positive test. I’m not sure about my maths there but I’m going with it 🤣

8-9 dpo is so early for testing I’m pretty sure 8-10 dpo is the most common for implantation.

I keep checking waiting for one of us to get a BFP! I'm still in, AF due anytime though and I'm feeling verrry bloated.

DH also isn't fussed and doesn't understand why I keep testing (done three now this month). Luckily for him I only share a small part of the craziness going on in my head about it all!

@LK2610 I like that way of thinking!
@RW269 thank you, I’ve been having very odd twinges today too! Decided I’m going to test Thursday evening.. want to test when my partner is home so whatever the outcome I have support!

Today I’ve had a lot of AF like cramps, like to the point where I expect to see blood Everytime I wipe! I’m only 8DPO and AF isn’t due until 14dpo but I was looking at some of my previous symptoms and in October when I was pregnant (ectopic) I had the same AF coming cramps! So fingers crossed!!

should have mentioned when I had these cramps in October it was 9dpo and I got my first positives at 11-12DPO

Made the mistake of fishing my morning test out and looking at it again and there's a n evap line on it, I'm wishful thinking maybe it's not an evap 😂 ordered a batch of cheapies which will arrive tomorrow, I am going to POAS mental 🤪

Snap with the partner thing, my husband def thinks I’m obsessive with it and that’s only a small part of what goes on in my head 😂 so excited for the next few days I really hope we all get some bfp !

I think Ttc should come with like a guide to relaxation to get us through this 😂

Counting down the days till Sunday so I can test. I convince myself that if it isn't FMU then there is zero point in testing. Next 2 days I'm in the office so the mornings will be too busy to even think about it so then it's just Friday and Saturday to get through then it's test day!

I'm building a nice collection of tests too. Got about 18 left that came with the Premom ovulation sticks. Got a pack of 2 FRERs last month but never used them and this weekend I treated myself to a pack of 2 early detection clear blue digitals. Being very optimistic I get to use them this month 😅

Another BFN for me today at 9dpo 🤪. Hopefully at least one of us gets a BFP in the next couple of days!

I don’t know how some of you have so much restraint - wish I could! I tested this morning (9dpo) and have major like eyes but definitely bfn

Tested again this morning I swear there is the faintest line! But it's impossible to get it on camera! I've ordered some first response to arrive by tonight! So I'm going to retest when they arrive but I dipped another test and I can see a faint line on that one too! Really wish I'd had the first response on hand but I didn't think we'd actually do it this cycle. This is the only way I could get the line to even show on camera!

@Chaz693 I can see something!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@Chaz693 think I can see something too! Keep us posted!!

I’m a bit behind you all. Still waiting on a positive ovulation tests. Sick of seeing those empty circles!

Does anyone know if antibiotics can affect ovulation? That’s the only thing that’s different this month. I’m CD14 xx

@Chaz693 yes I can see something! How many dpo are you?

I also tested this morn and BFN, 9dpo. Well I also had line eyes convincing myself there was a line there but there wasn't 😂 ordered cheapie tests which arrive this morning so I'll test again this evening as soon as I come in from work

@TTC1990 yes that could affect your ovulation if your body is a bit out of whack!

@Daniki I'm 10dpo today. I tested yesterday T 9dpo and there was no doubt it was negative. Not even my line eyes could make a line appear. So I was shocked when I pulled the test out this morning and my eyes instantly saw a faint line. Still don't believe it. Keep going back to it. I'm hoping the first responses turn up tonight and I can test in the morning. Though knowing me I'll use one as soon as they arrive lol! X

I don't use clear blue sticks, but the easy @ home OPKs. But also in the same boat... was expecting to ovulate on CD13 but still haven't had a positive OPK and I am CD15 now. The tests are getting slightly darker, so perhaps will ovulate CD16/17.

DH is having a stressful week at work and is getting a bit fed up with the dates moving around, so not feeling too hopeful this month!

@Chaz693 ah best of luck with tomorrow's test - it looks really promising!
