AF is on way again for me too 😫! I can feel it in my cramps! So frustrating to be so soon! There’s no way I’ll get pregnant with my LP this short, so need to work on increasing it !!

@MerryBrickHelper its so hard to not compare isn’t it, I always do the same with temps but I don’t think it matters if it’s as high, as long as you still see the rise you need to see!

Peonies94 · 01/04/2024 15:58

@Brookes19 so sorry! It’s so disheartening isn’t it!😫

Dhows · 01/04/2024 18:27

Brookes19 · 01/04/2024 12:50

@Dhows yes BFN 😪 will try again tomorrow and every day until AF arrives (or hopefully doesnt). Good luck to you 🤞

aww fingers crossed you get your BFP over the next few days , I have had a lot more CM than usual, really thick and creamy , the cramps I was having have stopped , not sure if this is AF symptoms or Early pregnancy 😩 I took a test yesterday and was BFN so going to try again on Sunday if AF doesn’t make an appearance

Brookes19 · 01/04/2024 18:48

@Dhows thank you and good luck to you too! You have more willpower than me waiting until Sunday 😅

Dhows · 01/04/2024 23:59

So I’ve started cramping quite bad tonight I’m now going on 15dpo , due AF on Sunday so 6 days , have bad cramping tonight and slightly sore boobs , quite a lot of creamy lotion like CM aswell a lot more between today and yesterday .. not sure if it’s AF on its way or not

MerryBrickHelper · 02/04/2024 07:07

@Dhows are you tempted to test as you are 15 dpo? I’m pretty sure an early sensitive test would show it?
@Peonies94 how are you?? AF appeared or could it be something else?

@Brookes19 are you testing today?

My BBT is 36.84 today so no drop….yet. Itching to get to weekend so I can test! No symptoms at all!

Brookes19 · 02/04/2024 08:07

@MerryBrickHelper yes I tested again this morning BFN. I don't think this is my month but will keep testing and everything crossed until AF shows x

ForGoldSloth · 02/04/2024 08:51

How is everyone doing today? 💕

I am 11dpo and gone from feeling positive to feeling like it's probably not our month. I know it's not over till AF arrives but CM has dried up apart from a few clumps here and there, my boobs are sore but that's not uncommon for me in the run up to AF. Otherwise everything is normal here.

I have some tests arriving later today so I'll probably test later (and every day) anyway 🙈😂

Hey guys, so thinking af is on her way, my cm is starting to dry up a bit more now and I’ve been getting more cramps and breast soreness which is usual on the lead up to AF for me , I’m due on AF on Sunday so thinking it’s just that now, fingers crossed yous all get the results yous are hoping for

Dhows · 02/04/2024 13:07

I still have Creamy CM but it’s there one minute then drys up again so not feeling too hopeful

ForGoldSloth · 03/04/2024 08:57

This mornings test, I swear I can see something. I am notorious for line eyes though so I'm sticking pictures here to see if anyone else can see it 😂

5 DPO, anyone else?

@ForGoldSloth my eyes are picking up a vvvf line! I am also terrible for line eyes though! Fingers crossed for you x

ForGoldSloth · 03/04/2024 10:03

Thanks @Brookes19
Yes what I see is vvvvf (if I even really see it😂) so tempted to test again this morning but I know it won't help 🙈

8DPO - BFN! 😩

Brookes19 · 04/04/2024 08:29

@ForGoldSloth did you test again?
@JNicko 8 DPO is still very early 🤞

I'm 14DPO today I think and still BFN. AF due today so just waiting 😞

ForGoldSloth · 04/04/2024 11:48

@Brookes19 I'm sorry it's still negative.

I tested again this AM but I think it's negative. It's my birthday tomorrow and I had hoped for a BFP before then but I'm losing hope now.

Just done a couple more tests and I think I can see a very very faint line.

I’m out. I couldn’t wait until Saturday and tested today. BFN. I’m not surprised, but equally still disappointed. It was our first attempt post the MMC. Thank you @ForGoldSloth for creating this group - it’s been so helpful to not feel quite so alone in the tww. I hate how much all this dominates your life- I don’t share my fertility struggles in RL as I am surrounded with friends who ‘it happened straight away! Weren’t really trying!’ Having this group made me so much less alone.

I’m going to go cheer myself up and go for a run! Thanks ladies, best of luck for those who also received a BFN this month. Maybe April Ovulation will be our month….xxxxx

Brookes19 · 05/04/2024 08:59

@MerryBrickHelper me too, AF arrived last night. I'm gutted but glad I can finally stop torturing myself with testing. Wishing you lots of luck next month x

Whenyoupickapawpaw · 05/04/2024 10:07

Hello. I've been silently watching this thread but @MerryBrickHelper your reply is exactly how I feel and I thought I'd pipe up to let you know how helpful your post is.

I'm 10dpo today tested negative on frer. 4th cycle so not too far in but equally frustrating as my close friends all got pregnant within their first month of trying (their words) so can't relate or share my experience. Also, they never seem to ask me how I'm doing (although unsure if it doesn't cross their mind because they didn't appear to have a hard time TTC or whether it's because they think its rude/awkward to ask).

It's so reassuring knowing that other people are going through the same thing. Wishing you all lots of luck for April 💐

ForGoldSloth · 05/04/2024 12:32

@Brookes19 @MerryBrickHelper hopefully next month is a better month for us all ✨

My boobs got really really sore last night, I had a horrible taste in my mouth, and my CM really increased in the last 24 Hours to lots of creamy/snot like CM so I did get my hopes up for this morning but sadly it was a BFN this morning again 😔
Af is due to arrive today or tomorrow so that's me out this month too.

Baby Dust to anyone still waiting to test this month!

I’m going to test again today, I was trying to hold of till tomorrow as that’s when AF is due , I had quite a lot of creamy cm , which is now went quite clear and watery like , I’ve got cramps in my lower back and in my belly , stomach cramps are my usual for af , not back pain though, I’ve been quite tired a lot recently too ,

thinking it’ll be a BFN especially since I’m not late for AF yet , and since it’s not the first pee of the morning , I’ll keep yous updated though

Dhows · 05/04/2024 14:42

BFN here guys

JM1997 · 05/04/2024 17:04

Hi everyone,
Can I join in with the conversation please??
I am 7dpo, and it is the first month of trying, and oh my goodness the symptom spotting I am doing!!
I am due on next week, fingers crossed for no period next week, but who knows! I have been having cramping at the start of this week, nausea in the mornings, extreme exhaustion, I feel like I keep forgetting things like yesterday morning I was getting ready for work and started putting my pyjamas on!!
I did a test though yesterday because I couldn’t help myself and it came out as negative, so I think I’ll be trying again next cycle!
How is everyone getting on??
