Cycle 3 TTC

[AppleCrumble96]

First time posting. TTC first baby. Period was two days late, had a bit of a different cycle ovulated on CD20 opposed to CD15/16. Had more EWCM than usual so had my hopes up. AF finally made her appearance this morning and BBT dropped, been “spotting” for the last two days so was half hoping it could have been implantation spotting despite how rare it is. Glad to finally be on to a new cycle and not stuck in limbo. Trying to think positive that’s it’s a new cycle and I’m still early into this journey. TTC a few years ago but ended up getting married first!

Tracking CM, BBT and doing easy@home LH tests and CB advanced tests, always able to find my peak so far and can see a BBT spike. Also started taking Procieve last cycle. Onto cycle 3 TTC! ✨

Anyone else in the same boat? ☺️

Hi @AppleCrumble96 exactly the same boat as you! First baby and cycle 3! I’m 11DPO - no sore boobs like I usually would before period and more CM (usually dry between OD and period). But literally no other symptoms. It’s so hard not to analyse every single thing during the tww 😄.
wishing you all the good luck for your next cycle! What is AF please? There are so many acronyms and I’m still learning (every day 😄).

Hi @Katamari88 & @AppleCrumble96

I’m on my first official cycle since my hormones/period regulated after removing the implant and currently CD15. Not really tracking anything (outside of Clue app) but will go back to tracking bbt if we’re not successful this month. Just trying to DTD every other day.

Hoping for a positive before my 30th birthday this summer

@Katamari88 fingers crossed for you! It is hard not over analyse everything, any twinge or new symptom I’m wondering if it’s early pregnancy related even though I am well aware it’s likely just progesterone 😂. Thank you! I need to be better taking my BBT this month as I wasn’t doing it at the right time some days. AF just meant aunt flow (period)! ☺️

@hopeful4us hope you get a positive! That’s a good way of going about it, less stress definitely. In a few months if I still haven’t got a positive I’m planning scaling everything back for a month or two, have a bit of break from all LH tests and everything just for my own sanity will just regularly DTD😂

I’m very similar! TTC baby number 1 on CD19 of my second cycle. Only just starting getting darker LH tests so hoping I ovulate tomorrow or the day after 🤞🏼

Really trying to stay chilled about it all given I’ve only just started this journey but it’s already making me anxious testing and waiting for ovulation to happen then second guessing if I actually have?! 🥲

It’s a rollercoaster for sure 🤣 - had brown spotting this morning and mild cramps, odd for me to spot before my period - I literally have no other symptom except for more CM, promised myself I wouldn’t test until day after period due but couldn’t help myself ha. BFN unfortunately! I’m 12DPO so still hope maybe - or just the arrival of AF!

Oh fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼 you’re not out until AF arrives! Keep us updated 🙂

Unfortunately it was just the start of AF! A very light one so far, strange for me! On to the next cycle 🤞🏻😊

@Katamari88 I’ve decided to allow myself a treat when AF arrives (glass of wine/spa day). Fingers crossed for your next cycle
