Knew AF was coming! CD1 for me now! Bring on the Christmas baby good luck! Hope you’re all keeping well!

Awww I'm so gutted for you after those positives @RW269 😩 but let's hope the next round is all our time for BFP's 🤞🏼

I’ve got the feeling I’m out for March, due on tomorrow and tests are back stark white negative this morning!
we’ve got this, December babies here we come!
definitely a positive if it’s balanced your hormones out!
Im going to try the Premom ovulation strips this month! Giving up on clear blue the smiley face makes me angry I feel it’s too vague 😂 hahaha!

@RW269 the premom ones are the ones I use and honestly it's a much clearer indication of when your going to ovulate you can literally pin point your peak and the app keeps all the pictures logged and does all the measuring for you! Honestly so much less stressful and your defo feel more in the know of when to ramp up TBD lol 😂

RW269 · 10/03/2024 17:00

@MinaHarker1 Awwh!
I’ve just ordered a set of the pre mom ones :) 50 ovulation and 20 hcg so that’ll keep me sorted for the month! I’m definitely slacking off the clear blue one it frustrated me too much haha! :D

@RW269 it does!. 🙂

Dogscanlookup · 10/03/2024 17:53

Ah, I love the partners trying with cards from the pets!!
seems a lot of us are CD1/2 which is nice. this is almost a TWW in itself 😂

RRAEE · 10/03/2024 17:56

Im back to CD8 hate all the waiting 😅

RW269 · 10/03/2024 18:02

Gives us a week to build up our energy for the week of sexathoning 😂😂😂

May I join.
im currently waiting for AF, it’s due Tuesday but have a stark white BFN today and have zero symptoms so I think I’m 100% out this cycle.
I got my BFP on 12DPO last time (ended in mc on Christmas Day)

my DH is a December baby so it would be amazing to have another December baby too.

soymilknosugar · 10/03/2024 18:57

Joining with hope! Depo ran out in Dec so it’s been a waiting game. Had spotting a couple weeks ago but a negative test so hoping things are starting to move in the right direction. Going to give evening primrose oil a go🤞

Ncl31 · 10/03/2024 20:10

@soymilknosugar it took me a good 4-6 months until I got my regular cycle back so don’t panic if it takes a little while

soymilknosugar · 10/03/2024 20:37

@Ncl31 ok thank you! Did you take any supplements etc to help it along or just waited it out?

ooplesandbaneenies · 10/03/2024 21:00

Hi - would love to join. TTC since last September. Had a CP early Feb this year. Ovulated I think 28th - tested too many times this week - bright white BFN - putting this month behind me and moving onto April. I have a DD6. Born very early with health issues so I'm very nervous as it is and due to the trauma of it all it's taken a while to start TTC but so desperately would like another, as least so to give her a sibling.

I just just waited it out to be honest

Dogscanlookup · 11/03/2024 09:56

welcome all!

@Ncl31 oh im so sorry to hear about your MC, especially being on Christmas Day. Well you’ll be close to our cycles this month so we’re all in this together!
@RW269 sexathoning 😂 going to be trying to do a lot more of this before ovulation date. I keep getting the static smiley sooner than expected recently.

hope everyone’s week is starting of positively 🤞🏻

Daniki · 11/03/2024 10:38

I really wished I tracked my ovulation this month as I'm so confused. Period is late, in either 14 or 9 dpo if I go by EWCM. Have had no spotting which I usually have! Have a head cold now. Wish af would either start or I get a positive test 😂

Ncl31 · 11/03/2024 11:55

@Dogscanlookup its was pretty awful I have to say.
I had a pretty significant temp drop today at 12DPO, one app says I’m due AF tomorrow and the other it says Thursday. Only time will tell I guess.

Dogscanlookup · 11/03/2024 13:16

@Daniki hmm have you done another test today?
@Ncl31 😔 I can imagine. Yes it is just a waiting game at times! Will you test again tomorrow?

Daniki · 11/03/2024 13:19

@Dogscanlookup I tested this morn, BFN! il test again in the morning if still no arrival! Towards the end I have willpower and can avoid testing but the early stages waiting I'm like a woman possessed! (Until bedtime when il prob test again 😂)

LindyMoe · 11/03/2024 13:46

Starting to unravel today. Been reading tonnes about how I'm now just too old to have another baby.

I'm bordering a melt down. I lost my mum last year to cancer so just wasnt in the mind set to try. Now DS is 4 and I fear I've waited too long.

I honestly feel like I've failed.
Why is this so so hard.

RW269 · 11/03/2024 14:04

@Daniki oh! Yes definitely do another test tomorrow morning and let us know! Was it yesterday you were due on? Got everything crossed for you!

@LindyMoe sorry to hear you’re feeling like this, remember a lot of stuff online is just the negative sides of things! How old are you? I’m not sure how old you are but there’s so many people who have babies a bit later on you’ve got this! ✨🌷

OP posts:
Daniki · 11/03/2024 14:07

@RW269 will do! I was wondering were you my husband when I read "sexathoning" 🤣

@LindyMoe sorry to read about your mum, what age are you? My neighbour had twins 4 years ago, she got pregnant naturally at 43 🤗

emmatcc1 · 11/03/2024 14:09

@LindyMoe 35 is definitely not too old. It is so common now to have babies at age 35+. My mum had her last child at 36 and her friend also just got accidentally pregnant at 42.

RW269 · 11/03/2024 14:41

@Daniki got to keep it fun 😂😂😂

OP posts:
LindyMoe · 11/03/2024 15:12

Yeah I'm 35, but that's the 'steep decline' and ugh how do you keep the negative noise out of your head?
