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 ✨❤️

Yeah I eventually got it 5 days later, I also had a really bad cold with a temperature so I think it was that @TTC1990 - so I’m now still waiting for AF to arrive but my app is saying period late take a test, when I know it’s not late, just delayed 😩

Sorry I must have read an older message! Oh that’s frustrating but at least your peak came! I don’t think mine is ever arriving 🤷🏼‍♀️. I hate the slow wait for AF!! X

Been lurking for a while and this thread does seem to have some luck in so thought I'd hop in 👋 I'm 1dpo currently and headed into my tww. This is cycle 3 for me trying for the first time.

@YorkshirePeridot welcome and best of luck! X

I thought that too, it could be that you’ve missed it @TTC1990 ?

Strange for it to never show on the CB though, but I’m pretty sure it’s not coming. Absolute zero signs so I’m just praying I have and there’s still a chance! Can’t face seeing another flashing smiley…

Yeah just gotta learn to somehow trust our bodies 🙈 got my fingers crossed for you this cycle @TTC1990. There’s a good bunch of us in the April group too if not 🥰 x

@LK2610 thank you, that is reassuring to hear! It can be such a lonely time TTC! X

Congratulations on all the positives! So lovely to see.

I had a BFN this morning at 10dpo, but I definitely 'feel' pregnant. Another 6 days until AF is due. I had cramps on 7/8dpo, sore boobs, backache and nausea since then, and really exhausted tonight, none of which are usual for me. Going to test tomorrow with an FRER, I've only been using internet cheapies so far because it's been so early I didn't want to waste the good ones!

If I'm not pregnant, I'm so confused by all the symptoms as I never have any usually. This is horrible 😩

@waltzingintomonday this all sounds promising! Let us know an update!

This evening I’ve been having a weird bubbly feeling in my stomach. No idea if that’s a symptom!!

@TTC1990 that could be promising! I've also been super gassy so who knows! When do you think you'll test?

It's so tough, I've had all these symptoms but when you see the BFN it's still so disheartening, especially when some on here are lucky and get BFPs so early. I can't decide if I should test again tomorrow and risk the sadness, or try and hold out.

@Daisychain27 thays definitely a positive 😍 huge congrats!!
I also did another thismorning and got a little stronger line 😅 I’m actually in shock.. had first baby 9 years ago, and now have a 6 month old but said we would Start trying incase it took so long again 😅 hopefully this is a sticky bean and we have a few years of craziness 🥰

@waltzingintomonday I feel you!! I’m just so bad at waiting…I feel like gradually seeing BFN prepares me better.

Im going away Thursday and come back sunday so I think I’ll test then. Should be 11DPO I never found my peak so that could be completely inaccurate, just going by my Flo app!

Congratulations!!! Crazy but a house full of love I’m sure!

@waltzingintomonday keep us posted on the test today! Got everything crossed for you.

@Emmano3 thank you, you too!! Glad to see you got another nice line today :) remind me how many DPO you are? I’m 11DPO today, did another easy@home strip, maybe ever so tiny darker than yesterday but it sort of seems the same. Should I be concerned about line progression at this point?

Also I’m still not really having many symptoms? I’ve had insomnia and twinges and some mild cramps now but no sore boobs or anything!

I think there's a vvvvvvfl on my FRER today, DH agreed he could see something but it's a real squinter. It came up within the timeframe. AF isn't due until Monday though so I'm taking comfort that today is the first day the test would show anything according to the instructions.

13dpo for me today, I tested on 10 and 11 dpo and it was very negative unfortunately. Didn't feel great after those so holding out to 15 dpo (day after AF is due) to test again. I've got some cramping, lower back pain and slight nausea still. Wish me luck on holding out 😅

i have a vvvfl on a cheapy today at 9dpo 😬
I'm not sure if it's real or even if it will stick, ordered some frers for tomorrow! good luck to everyone!

I am going to jump on board, currently 5DPO (I think), first time trying this time but i have two other DC. The TWW is agonising, so would be lovely to have some company.

Wow that looks so promising @waltzingintomonday - hopefully you get some great line progression over the next few days. Very pleased to see so many people on this thread get BFPs.

I have already shared how this cycle has been a bit of a mess. Due to delayed ovulation, weekend trips (where we weren't together) and a consuming job interview, we only managed to DTD just once during the fertile window.

Now I am 5DPO I am almost wishing that we had just given this cycle a miss - it's the hope that gets ya! 😅

@PuddleJump I'll be your DPO buddy! When is AF due for you? My cycle has been weird this time round but apps are saying anytime between 22nd-24th.

@CoolSummer89 ahh awesome! Good to have company. Have you decided when you are going to test, or are you waiting till you're late first? My app is saying AF is due on the 23rd and it's normally pretty accurate.

@PuddleJump i think I am going to test from 10DPO. I don’t have much hope for this cycle as nothing seemed to go to plan. But I think testing is part of my cycle now, so it’s habit rather than anxiety.

Basically: Period > Test for LH > Ovulation > Sit on my hands for 10 days 😅 > Test for HCG

i am only on cycle 3 of trying for #1. But it’s funny how quickly you can get into a new routine!

@waltzingintomonday I can see it, what dpo are you!?

@Daniki the more I look the more sure I am it's there! 11dpo, AF due on Monday.
