TTC 2024 - New Year Babies

[Dogscanlookup]

Hey!

Thought id start a new thread as anyone at the beginning of their cycle TTC now I guess will be looking at January due dates! Think AF will be here today or tomorrow for me so my due date would be 7th January…

@CadoAvo oh great it's darker! The stress we out ourselves through 😩 yea I don't think it would still be there but could be a chemical! Hopefully have either a darker test or AF in the morning and can plan accordingly 😂🙈

Oh thank you @YaWeeFurryBastard x

@Daniki definitely do another in the morning, at this early stage it’s just so hard to rely on with how dark the lines are.
@CadoAvo exciting it got darker! So here for all the positive news 💜

@Daniki we are in this together 🤞🏼

@Dogscanlookup thank you so much, long may it continue ☺️

Anyone in the same boat as me? First day of last period was 5th April, ovulation I guessed was around 19th. Im now late by a few days but also getting negative pregnancy tests?! I don't know what to think.

That was me a few days ago. Negative 11dpo and then bfp at 12 dpo. Test again tomorrow?

No joy this morning anyway it's negative. I think it was either a chemical or the trigger really hung around. Have an awful migraine and usual pms symptoms so can expect her any day now 🤔 how is yours this morning @CadoAvo?

@Daniki ahhhh I'm sorry to hear that, that's so annoying 😭

Tests are still faint, last time I was getting test lines almost as dark as the control by this point so it's annoying to see them still so faint but just trying to stay hopeful that it doesn't mean it will end badly 🤷🏽‍♀️

There's definitely progression in them @CadoAvo so wouldn't stress as some tests don't ever go really dark!

@B1989 ohhhh congratulations! I tested 8dpo (😅) 10dpo, 11 and 12 and then 15dpo (all negative)... 16 today, so I'll give it a go. Just want to know either way so I can either start preparing for next cycle or start being excited to be pregnant! Also hate feeling a bit guilty every time I have coffee and soft cheese... but I don't have a positive test yet so reluctant to cut down on those things yet!

Hi, joining in this month. TTC #3. AF due tomorrow, had a vvvfl this morning on a cheap test, can't capture it on my phone. Will try again tomorrow.

Do those who got positives have any symptoms? I’m struggling to remember what I had when with my son as I feel completely normal atm which is making me anxious.

Did do another test tonight and the line is progressing since the test I did on Thursday, so hoping everything is moving in the right direction!

Talking about symptoms I've had extremely sensitive nipples since day 5dpo. Boobs are relatively full still but not swollen.

My bbt has been up and down but generally going up.

No implantation bleed yet.

How common is implantation bleed, for those of you that have had success.

Also for those that asked about OPk , the premom one worked super well for me this month, the cheap ones before didn't peak so that's one less worry. 😀

@Firsttimetrier I'm currently 5 weeks 2 days... my boobs are rock solid 😭 they're so sore... my nipples are so hard and aching 😅. Also have very mild cramping/twinges, mild nausea, fatigue, bloating/gassiness... so far!

Sounds fun 🤣 yet we are all praying for it. Hopefully it eases up soon.
I've no idea as hoping for my first pregnancy.
Unsure if the changes are just my age (37) and hormones changing or pregnancy symptoms.

@WonderingAboutBabies exactly the same as me - 5 weeks 2 days yesterday. I have v sensitive nipples, full boobs but not sore (which are usually half empty having had 2 kids already 🤣), on and off lightheadedness and (bizarrely) a blocked nose that I’m sure is not hayfever or a cold! Completely different symptoms to my previous 2 pregnancies even at this early stage!

This is what I had first time around but can’t remember when it started, maybe 6 weeks but swear it was earlier!

This time I feel so normal but maybe I’ll be hit with all the symptoms in a week or two’s time and won’t be complaining about the lack of symptoms then 😂

Just did my first digital and for 2-3 weeks, so that’s positive at least!

@Firsttimetrier I am currently 4+6days and i am the same, i feel so normal. I have pretty much no symptoms, not even sore boobs! So crazy how every pregnancy is different. Hoping to have more symptoms soon (even the bad ones so it feels a bit more real!).

Hi everyone,
Thought I'd join as yesterday I got my BFP! Absolutely over the moon! A little nervous as it's early days I'm only 4+1 day.
I've had cramps and feel really bloated, a bit of backache too. Hoping it's all normal, it's my first pregnancy.

Congratulations! There's a Due In Jan thread on the pregnancy forum where you might be better suited now you are pregnant. They've also set up a WhatsApp community group chat which is great 💞

So definitely a chemical as AF started yesterday and I still had the vfffffl yest morning. Had my cry on Monday so positive boots back on 😂 we're doing the trigger shot cycle one more time and then have an app for IUI at the end of the month, so hoping that will take the pressure off x

Anyone still in the TWW? I'm 2dpo after finally getting my peak on CD 19. Only able to dtd CD17 and CD20 so bit frustrated as I know peak day is the prime time and with being first time using OPKs really wanted to use the opportunity!! We will see if it was enough, hope there's still some others our there waiting. Congratulations to all those out there with BFPs 🎉

@Daniki sorry to hear that, hope the next cycle brings better news 💕

@SummerSun24 I'm still in the TTW I'm about 5DPO. Ovulated late again on CD21 but managed to cover as much as possible so 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 this waiting never gets any easier.

@SummerSun24 @RRAEE im also still waiting, day of ovulation is supposed to be today (CD17) , had EWCM on CD15 so I do think either yesterday or today I should ovulate. Will be on holiday when I can test, hopefully that will make the TWW a little easier 😫 DTD CD 12,14,15 so far, will also try for today and CD19 and 🤞that should be enough!

@skr97 we did every other day from CD 11 - 21 wanted to cover a few more days but DP got a cold so couldn't. Im hoping we did enough and this month is the one.

At least you'll have a holiday to pass the time, that should really help :) I hope you have a great time and get the answer you want 💕
