Ovulating!

Hey everyone! Just looking for people ovulating around the same time as me to chat with! I got a high ovulation test today, assuming from other months that I’ll get my peak tomorrow! I do always get ovulation cramps so I can tell before I even test that I’m ovulating! I am getting really sharp pains in my left ovary so I’m wondering if there’s an egg coming from that side! I’ve never had these pains before! I’ve been TTC for nearly 2 years now.. I had a MMC in December of 2022, 2 chemicals in 2023 and then an ectopic on my c section scar in October/November! So this is the first month I’m allowed to TTC after getting methotrexate to treat the ectopic! I’ve been in a few other chats with people around the same dpo as me but they’re all now expecting! So excited for them! I’d love to hear everyone else’s stories ❤️

The more I look at it the more I think I do see a line on the top one! Did you buy any of the wondfo tests cause I personally think they are more sensitive than easy@home

@Jess1997 No I didn’t I thought would get through these before I buy some others.. wish I had now though as would be good to compare!
my heart did stop at first but as soon as I saw the flooded pink I was like nope that’s def not right !
but now I think am I just wanting to see a line in the top one… tomorrow will tell because if there’s nothing then I’m just seeing lines 😆 must let me know how yours is tomorrow!

Jess1997 · 05/03/2024 20:38

@Mumma8538 i really don’t wanna get my hopes up 😭 like I’ve been trying for so long what’s the chances I’d get pregnant my first month TTC since my ectopic! However the main difference is I’ve been taking folic acid everyday for over a month! And multivitamins! I had to cause the chemo I got for the ectopic demolishes all folic acid in your system so I was told to take a month before TTC again

@Mumma8538 i hope I wake up to a faint line message from you!!

Mumma8538 · 05/03/2024 20:58

Wouldn’t you be more fertile @Jess1997 as you have not long been pregnant? Both of those surly will help too ! I hope all together you are forming a beautiful baby 🥰

I hope so too and I hope I get one from you saying you can see more of one !

Jess1997 · 05/03/2024 21:16

@Mumma8538 I’m working tomorrow so hopefully that will distract my mind 😂😂 however I spend most days with my mum and my parents are going on a 2 week cruise on Friday but hopefully by Friday I will know if I am or not 😂

Mumma8538 · 06/03/2024 07:08

@Jess1997 would you tell them right away if it’s positive ?
no faint line message from me it’s stark white so just making sure I’ve got pads as AF will a come I can feel her presents 😆

Jess1997 · 06/03/2024 10:24

@Mumma8538 i would tell my mum cause she’s been right there with me for all my MCs. My partner doesn’t drive and our EPU is 20 miles away so he always stays home with Ophelia while my mum takes me to all my EPU appointments 😂 that ectopic I had, it took them 7 weeks to figure out what it was so I had to go up every other day and get my bloods done and in internal scan! I could have drove myself to a lot of them but my mum didn’t want me to be alone!
BFN here today too but still not out! My af isn’t due until Tuesday so I’m still in! Sorry to hear you think yours is coming 😭

@Mumma8538 im doing a pee now then I’m gonna hold it until I get home, I finish work at 5 and by the time I get sorted and get home it’ll be close enough to 6 so I’ll have a 4 hour hold to Test with

Mumma8538 · 06/03/2024 15:04

@Jess1997 what a great mumma you have there ! Gosh 20 miles away and you had to go up every other day 🫣
you still have lots of time for your BFP! I don’t think I could hold mine I drink so much water I would be bursting ! Let me know how you get on

Jess1997 · 06/03/2024 15:08

@Mumma8538 yes I’d literally be lost without my mum! It’ll be a long 2 weeks without her 😂 I only work one day a week and I’m glad it’s today so as I’m not being test obsessive 😂 also I’m bursting for a pee already🙃🙃🙃🙃 I drank a huge coffee and I’ve almost got my full bottle of juice in me too 😂 will I make it to 6pm?!?

OP posts:
Mumma8538 · 06/03/2024 15:53

@Jess1997 can you still contact her ? If that was me I couldn’t I would need to go … have you got the drive home ? I would be worried getting stuck in traffic just thinking I need a weeeeeeeee

Jess1997 · 06/03/2024 15:55

@Mumma8538 they’re going on a 2 week Caribbean cruise (I don’t the same one in 2019 pre baby lol) so I’ll be able to contact her the days they’re off the boat! I just had to go pee I couldn’t handle it anymore 😂😂 I only live 5 mins away but I needed to go to Lidl after so I was thinking it’ll be close to 6 by the time I’m actually home 😂 maybe a 2 hour hold will have to do

OP posts:
Mumma8538 · 06/03/2024 16:23

@Jess1997 oh well that sounds wonderful ! Was it good? Hopefully not too many days where you can’t contact her. Have to pee in that time. Could you do one like late late this evening for a longer hold?

Jess1997 · 06/03/2024 19:16

@Mumma8538 I literally cannot hold my pee today so all BFNs so will try in the morning!

OP posts:
Mumma8538 · 06/03/2024 22:01

@Jess1997 morning wee is a good one and what DPO is it for you tomorrow ?

Jess1997 · 06/03/2024 22:34

@Mumma8538 ill be 10dpo! What about you still no sign of af?

OP posts:
Jess1997 · 07/03/2024 00:18

@Mumma8538 honestly I think I’m out this month. Really bad af style cramps tonight!

OP posts:
Mumma8538 · 07/03/2024 07:12

@Jess1997 still no AF but also BFN so I’m sure it will happen at some point today. Oh no really but that remember your previous post you found from yourself you had that previously and you were pregnant !

Mumma8538 · 07/03/2024 08:29

@Jess1997 speaking of the devil. AF is here like clockwork! Funny you just know it’s going to happen. Please keep me updated.

Jess1997 · 07/03/2024 09:51

@Mumma8538 sorry to hear af is here!
my problem is the cramps feel so legit that it’s hard to think they could be anything but AF 😂 I’m still bfn, I swear I see lines but if it’s not obvious it’s not there!

OP posts:
Mumma8538 · 07/03/2024 16:40

@Jess1997 well wasn’t meant to be, but that’s ok will keep trying! I know what you mean but so many people seem to experience the same type of cramping and everywhere I read it says early pregnancy symptoms can be the same as PMS ! So you are not out til you are out and you are still very early for BFP so I’m here keeping everything crossed for you !

Jess1997 · 07/03/2024 20:20

@Mumma8538 i did a test there but the strip was pink for what felt like stronger than usual? And there’s 100% a faint line on it but I’m not convinced that it’s not just a faulty test.. here’s a pic anyway and I promise it’s alot more visible in person! But I don’t wanna get my hopes up just incase!

@Jess1997 I see exactly the line you are talking about 👀 getting longer is def a good sign . I can understand why you don’t want to get your hopes up but at the same time you have seen a line and it’s getting more. Visual all sounds very promising to me.
what’s that funny coloured picture , does it help show it up more. I’ve seen others do it but I don’t know the reason.

Jess1997 · 07/03/2024 21:34

@Mumma8538 it inverts the picture! So sometimes you can see a line clearer when it’s inverted! Honestly if it’s even actually positive knowing my luck we will be TTCing again next month together 😂
