TTC June 2024 ✨♥️

[RW269]

Thought I’d make a new thread for those of us Ttc in June 2024. I know some of us will cross over from end of May to June ! Wishing everyone all the luck ✨❤️

@LucyCL do you mind please sharing which app you're using?

Sorry to hear about your difficult journey. The ovulation test strips are tricky sometimes. Do you keep an eye on your cm? That helps me when the strips are confusing. Fingers crossed for you this month 🤞

@Marie1990x how are things going with you? Have you tested yet? Any symptoms?

I didn’t test on my wedding day! I had a sip of Prosecco. I don’t feel right drinking after the CP for some reason - just reminds me that I shouldn’t be because I should have been preggo!

im cd42 (lol) and 11dpo! May test tomorrow or Thursday… think im just putting it off because i dont want to see the words ‘not pregnant’ 😫 not sure when AF is due either so that’s not helping anything!

Hiiii!! I tested yesterday and was bfn so I haven’t bothered today. No symptoms other than feeling like AF would arrive, so I’m just waiting for her to show up. I think she’s due on Wednesday.

I’ve ordered my batch of easy@home OPK’s ready. Intrigued to see if these new supplements help in any way.

Eeeek huge congratulations on your wedding! I hope you had the most amazing day 😍. Yeah I can imagine that must have been hard knowing you should have been pregnant 😔.

Do you have any normal tests that aren’t digital’s? Definitely won’t help not knowing when AF is due, I guess it would normally be 14 days after you ovulated?

Congratulations on your wedding @GreenPickle ! Did you have a lovely day? I've got everything crossed for you for when you test

13 Dpo, BFN.
However yesterday my CM was watery and wet. That usually means there is a rise in estrogen. However based on Mira chart, this morning there is a further drop in pdg and a slight drop in E3G. In my case, AF will be due tonight or tomorrow morning (I think).
My LH level went down slightly however there has been a slight and steady increase in LH since it reached the bottom after ovulation.

I finally have the data of wrist temperature. It doesn't tell me the exact number however the deviation will be useful for me in the future.

RHR: As AF is so close, I am gradually getting my true RHR which is 60 at the moment so I wonder if it will drop further when AF is here. 😆I also think that it might be better to wait until afternoon to establish the RHR of the day.

My BBT remains elevated however based on the data I collected this morning, I predict that there will be a big drop tomorrow morning.
Would be great to collect all the baseline levels when AF is here then I can use them to monitor my health and potential ovulation and future pregnancy.

Also the baseline from the wrist temperature on apple watch: I wonder if it will be readjusted again when AF is here. Because my current BBT is elevated which doesn't reflect the true BBT/baseline when AF is due.

Does anyone know? I am still new to RHR and wrist temperature😁.
@ClassicQuill Currently I am using Health app with apple watch, Premom, Mira, Proov and Flo.

Health app and apple watch: RHR, wrist temperature
Premon: LH strips, BBT recording
Mira: female hormone levels
Proov: checking if ovulation happens
Flo: Extra information about CM and other interesting facts of what is going on inside our body each day

@GreenPickle Congratulations😊hope you had a lovely day! I stopped drinking in March/April and the husband joined me about 3 weeks ago. We said we would give a few cycles without any drink a go, to see whether it makes us more lucky. We will see!

@Marie1990x @LucyCL I tested this morning and also a BFN. Still in my TWW (7dpo) but couldn't help but test early, probably shouldn't have. Feeling a bit deflated, had some twinges a couple of days ago but now in hindsight that could have just been a coincidence. The only symptoms I remember having last time this early on was back pain on one side about 7 dpo, which I don't seem to have this time so I am mentally preparing for AF.

TWW last time felt much easier and faster for me. Maybe I need to let go of control but that is easier said than done 🙈

I just got AF!!! I am no longer in the limbo of the post CP cycle!! I am now free!! I cannot wait to see what is going to happen in this new cycle!😀 This cycle is going to be a normal one! So today is officially CD1 for me!

I stopped drinking this Feb and I had a can of cider when I had a CP last month. Then I drink no more. Good luck to you this month!! Baby dust to you!

@LucyCL sorry that it's been so difficult but everything crossed for you for this cycle!! So exciting to be CD1 now 🥰

Yes, this cycle has been the worst cycle!! I thought that it would be easy to recover from it in no time such as getting my LH peak because my hcg level was 12 when I started to bleed. That really messed up my mind because it was such a low amount of hcg! I am now relieved. ❤ Can't wait to use all my exciting new technologies to monitor, record and collect the data of the future cycles! I love knowing what is going on! Hahahahaha

@Marie1990x what DPO are you? My only symptoms last month were PMS ones so was a surprise to see a BFP (even if it didn’t last!). Sore boobs, cramps etc so you’re not out yet!

what supplements are you taking?

all just digitals! The CB one is 10miu so it’s quite sensitive. I didn’t get on with the FRER ones last month so don’t think I’ll invest in those! I will probably hold off testing anyway just because ignorance is bliss at this point

Let me know how you get on! I’m not a massive drinker anyway. Maybe a cocktail once every few months but the other half is! I imagine we’ll both be on a health kick after stuffing our faces since the wedding and beyond… big fat good luck to you ✨

It was so great! The weather was really on our side. I am glad to be on the other side of it though! Thank you 🥰 keep putting it off but I’ll see how I feel in the morning!

Congratulations on your wedding @GreenPickle! Wishing you a long and happy life together

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️ congrats on your bfp!! how are you getting on? ✨

Hi all, BFN 12dpo today and AF is due tomorrow and I've all the symptoms. Feeling deflated. Will be onto month 6 ttc first baby. Never seen two lines on a test yet. Taking so many supplements over the past few months: pregnacare conception him&her, omega3, magnesium, and tried CoQ10 this cycle. Using conceive+ lube during fertile week and used ferti lily conception cup last 2 cycles. Any other tips???? So ready to be pregnant. I'm 28 and hubby 29. Off the pill since Sept 2023, but only properly actively ttc 6 cycles.

@GreenPickle ah congratulations to you two! Wishing you both all the best for the future

@LucyCL Sorry to hear AF came, but good that you'll be able to get a proper cycle of tracking under your belt. AF came for me today as well, and my next fertile window starts end of next week. Will you be staying in the June thread or are you planning to move to next one?

@Irish812 ah I'm so sorry, I am in the same boat but older then you (35). Are your cycles regular? Harder to know what is happening with men without getting them tested, and I know it's frustrating to wait the 12 months to go on NHS. My DH had an undescended testicle as a child, so his GP has fast-tracked him for semen analysis. That was over a month ago but they just referred him to the wrong clinic so he has to start all over from the beginning again! 🙄

Sometimes it is just luck of the draw each month, as it's only ever a 1 in 4 chance. As well as the supplements, try and find some time to do things that help you unwind. Maybe some self-massage or meditation. The stress hormone (cortisol) seems to mess up sex hormones.

Sorry to hear about the arrival of your AF! I think I might still stay within this group and June is only 1/3 finished.
I used to ovulate on CD15 then both MCs delayed my ovulation dates.
For the second cycle after my 1st MC, I ovulated on CD17. This new cycle is also the second cycle of a MC (CP) so I predict that I might ovulate around CD17 -19 which will be 26/6/24 - 28/6/24, technically still within this month if I am right. But I will also join the next month's group. 😄
Good luck to you for this new cycle! May it be the start of something special!

I’m 11/12dpo (I think). It’s definitely not my month for sure. Just want AF to come now.

I’ve gone for MyOva. Was comparing a few and they have really good reviews. Even if they don’t help conceive I’m hoping they help just for overall health and try get my cycles back on track 🤞🏻.

Ahhh bless you it’s such a kick in the teeth seeing it in words isn’t it. But you never know!!! Keep us updated obviously 😊

Hi everyone!

Just after a bit of advice :)

I'm currently 8 days late and I've been taking easy @ home tests since the expected day of my period. I've had a mild cramps but nothing else and still no period or BFP. I took a different cheap test today and it came up negative after 5 mins and I left it to one side & happened to look again around 30 mins later and it shows another line?? The line has colour and no need to squint to see. Is this valid? I have ordered a CB digital to arrive tomorrow to double check but just want to hear other peoples experiences??

Thank you!

have you tested recently?

Will take a look at myova- is it just for people with PCOS?

when is AF due? Might be worth holding off and testing on Friday!

Last cycle I got a BFP (ended in a chemical but not sure it’s relevant here!)

10dpo I took a test in the morning… didn’t see anything and hours later (maybe like 6-8).. came home and saw a FAAAAAINT line. Took another test at about 4.30 and got a faint line within the timeframe. All my negatives have never shown a line after whatsoever so I’m inclined to think it’s positive even though it’s against the law of pregnancy tests 😂

BUT I took that test as a negative to protect myself until I saw it on a digital

be mindful that the weeks indicator CB is around 25miu (I believe) whilst the ultra early digital is 10miu (this is the one I used last cycle at 12dpo and got a positive!)

that’s just my experience! Hope it goes your way.

what dpo are you?

@GreenPickle I'm 8 days late so around 24 DPO. I have ordered a digital test which I'll take on Wednesday if no AF in meantime! Been TTC for 4 years now and currently undergoing fertility testing to see if I need help! :)

I’ve just tested now and bfn. AF is due Wednesday according to the apps (if I ovulated when I had the peak). We’ll see anyway. I’m surprisingly alright, think I’ve just got used to bfn’s now 😂.

They do a few different MyOva supplements, I did the little quiz on their website to see which is best for me then ordered it on Amazon.

How are you feeling?
