Hello everyone! 👋Joining too if you don't mind.

I'm 1, maybe 2DPO today (still waiting for BBT to confirm).

I ovulated on CD16/17 this month and because of travel we were only able to DTD once in the early morning of CD13 😞Pretty gutted!

I have no idea whether to keep my hopes up or not for this month. Those lil swimmers staying alive for 4/5 days just seems so unlikely. I've read lots of people on here saying it happened for them, but the statistical chances are just so low.

Anyway, how is everyone else doing today? Glad to be here with you all 🙂

@Rosyposy26, some people can have two LH surges. The first doesn't do the job, so the body tries again. Or it could mean multiple ovulation. This is a handy explanation: Two LH Surges a Week Apart: What Does it Mean? - Inito Regardless, if possible, DTD quick, and definitely keep testing beyond 14DPO if you don't get a bfp by then!

I'll be testing at 10dpo, or maybe even earlier if I feel pregnant because I need to use progesterone suppositories. I ovulated a few days early this month, which I'm sure is down to switching to Pregnacare Conception... Now I'll be on holiday when it's time to test, so I have to pack the suppositories, pregnancy tests, and tampons if the worst happens!

Thank you. I didn’t have such a high surge this month but may have missed it. I have a few twinges now lower pelvis but nothing else. I’m trying not to symptom spot but so so hard also trying not to waste money on tests year did that last month.

ToeBeans24 · 12/03/2024 12:27

I’m 6dpo today and I’m getting twitchy wanting to test in the next few days even though I know it’s very likely too early 🤣

PandaOrLion · 12/03/2024 12:33

We go away on Saturday and I’m due to test on Monday. I was reassured before there is no point testing till at least 6days post ovulation but I’d love to know before we go!

ToeBeans24 · 12/03/2024 13:12

@PandaOrLion yeah it can take minimum of 6 days for implantation but average I think is 8-10!

How many DPO are you?

Hopefully the time away will be a good distraction ☺️

elarcoiris · 12/03/2024 13:16

@deliwoman1 I’m in the exact same situation re: testing early because of progesterone and also ovulating early this month. Alas I am not going on holiday so the similarities end there 🤣

123456789ss · 12/03/2024 16:54

Hi ladies.
I just tested at 5DPO 😢 I don't know why I did it 😫

I think I'm just desperate as it's 1st full cycle since MMC in Jan and I also had a triggering pregnancy announcement at the weekend which seems to have heightened my desperation!!

I'll try to hold out until the weekend 🤞

Good luck everyone ❤️

CurlyWurly1991 · 12/03/2024 17:25

Ahh @123456789ss its so hard not to test early isn’t it!
Sorry to hear about your miscarriage. I had surgical management for a MMC in Jan and have felt quite desperate to get pregnant again since.
This is the second cycle after that and I’m trying to take it a bit more easy as I have kind of driven myself crazy with all the tracking etc.
As a result I don’t know how many dpo I am exactly which is quite nice for a change. I’m probably 5-8dpo based on how I feel and when I last had fertile cm.
Really hope this is a lucky thread and we all get our BFPs!

Lillaya · 12/03/2024 17:27

Hey girlie's! 👋 I'd love to join!
7DPO, symptom spotting HARD and already started testing yesterday 🫣

You too @CurlyWurly1991
It's so heartbreaking isn't it
I hope you're doing ok

I don’t suppose anyone fancies having a guess at when I ovulated? Waiting for temps to confirm.

Since could only DTD on CD12 this month, hoping it was CD16 rather than CD17. Even then that’s a while for those lil swimmers to hang around!!

Joining in! 31 years old and this is our 6th month TTC with low sperm motility and morphology. Fingers crossed for this cycle but I know this might take us a while. This TWW is torture every single month. I'll try and keep strong this time and only test if and when my period is late on 25th March! Sending baby dust to all of you!

If I were to venture a guess looking at your chart I would say CD15 or 16. Fingers crossed!

elarcoiris · 12/03/2024 21:39

@purplecolouroffunk I would’ve said CD 15 based on just BBT and when your temp spiked upwards but the positive OPK is throwing me off!

purplecolouroffunk · 12/03/2024 21:41

@elarcoiris right?! It was way later this month so was really confusing. Seems impossible to ovulate before the pos OPK though? It’s weird.

elarcoiris · 12/03/2024 21:46

@purplecolouroffunk I would wonder whether you missed your peak a bit earlier in the cycle but weird that you were getting negative readings until that point. I’m not great with OPKs though so tend to rely more on BBT. Also interesting that it hasn’t pinpointed your ovulation based on having three high temps after the initial spike, but assume this will happen in the next day or so.

purplecolouroffunk · 12/03/2024 22:13

@elarcoiris I wondered that too! It’s the first month I’ve used them so maybe there was something funky going on. I’ll attach my tests too! My peak surge was pretty quick.

FF seems to think I ov’d on CD17 so I think maybe it’s waiting until another two high temps to confirm? Without the pos OPK I’d have been certain it was CD15 🤔

elarcoiris · 12/03/2024 22:17

@purplecolouroffunk Ah yeah that is definitely a peak! Also your other one on that day are quite high too. How mysterious! I think normally you do ovulate 24-48 hours after peak which would make CD17 make sense but the BBT suggests earlier. Will keep fingers crossed for you either way!

purplecolouroffunk · 12/03/2024 23:07

@elarcoiris yep definitely don’t understand the BBT part! I’m also never sure if you’re meant to ovulate when it dips, or after it dips - I keep reading different things!

Thank you! 🤞

LilPearl · 13/03/2024 17:29

How's everyone feeling? It's lovely to know we're all in it together!
I'm 4 or 5 dpo today and dtd as I was super in need!! Afterwards I've had lower cramps all afternoon. Anyone relate?

mamataylor · 13/03/2024 17:54

@LilPearl I’m 4/5dpo too! It’s so lovely to know there’s 100’s of other women going through it and obsessing like me 🙈
I haven’t had that but my cm has increased in the last day or so! Usually I’m completely dry after ovulation - anyone else the same?

Rosyposy26 · 13/03/2024 18:22

@LilPearl @mamataylor im going crazy. Wishing days away until can test. Constantly squishing boobs to see if they hurt etc. I know it’s far to early if have fallen probably not even implanted yet.

mamataylor · 13/03/2024 18:46

@Rosyposy26 you’re not alone! 😫 when are you planning to test?

Rosyposy26 · 13/03/2024 18:56

mamataylor · 13/03/2024 18:46

@Rosyposy26 you’re not alone! 😫 when are you planning to test?

I don’t know AF due 23rd so maybe on Sunday. I have a CB early test in cupboard and a few cheapy ones. If I can hold of to Sunday. I’m 6DPO tomorrow

last month I spent a fortune on tests all to be BFN.
