Moving over from lurking on TTC Aug 2024, as AF just arrived yesterday. Anyone else joining?

@rebecca199 saw your message about ectopic, hopefully it’s not that and just heavy implantation bleeding but happy to help answer any questions or your concerns x

Unfortunately it's looking like it's either ectopic or a miscarriage. I had a scan and they saw something on my right tube but said they weren't 100% sure. So had bloods done Thursday which showed hcg as 38 and progesterone at a 2 so they said I would miscarry, however my lines got MUCH darker the next day, so I had repeat bloods done yesterday and now just waiting for the results to see if hcg increases. I've been having right sided pain so I'm worried but glad it's being looked into!

Ahh we’re close, we’re cycle 2 trying for #2 as well. Good luck in the TWW!

Similar to me too! Trying for our 2nd. AF due 7th Sep! That will be first cycle trying for me, didn't start this month.

The top one looks positive, the middle and bottom I can’t really see because of the flash. Did you take them all on the same day? FMU? How many DPO?

No bottom one today first thing in the morning, next one yesterday later morning and top one day before in afternoon. Someone's suggested to test smu so I'm going to do that tomorow and see what happens 🤞 and not to sure on dpo.

Hi ladies
I’m 10dpo (I’ve had multiple mc chemical and pul in the past )
I’ve got a BFP today on IC the line was very faint but I always have faint positive lines and then clear blue digital to confirm with the conception indicator.
still very early days but I’m feeling positive this bean will stay baby dust to everyone testing this month
I started taking different vitamins about a month ago and we didn’t “actively” try in August we only did the BD 1 time but it happened anyway.
Shows when the stress of it is taken away miracles can happen .

How long after your positive OPKs do you normally see a temp rise? This is my first month using both. I think the mistake I’ve made in the past is getting one positive OPK then stopping and just assuming that I’m ovulating the next day. This month I’m going to keep testing until they come down again, and keep temping too, and BD’ing every day until the fertile period ends. 🤞 this is our month.

heres my tests from this cycle so far.

LoveispatientLoveisKind · 01/09/2024 18:38

@MrsKurz

it depends on how soon you ovulate after a + opk as temperature usually rises after ovulation has occurred.
Some people ovulate the day of or some a day or 2 after +opk

Good morning everyone! This weekend has felt incredibly long - I can distract myself with work in the week but the weekends are hard. I'm 9dpo today and I swear I can see a vvvfl on an easy @ home test. I got a horrible indent/evap with these last month though (although that was at 14dpo) so if there is something there at all, I'm not getting my hopes up just yet. I don't think I can see it on the photos.

One thing I was I did before starting TTC is track my period symptoms - I have no clue what is a normal pre-period symptom for me and what isn't! Its making not symptom spotting impossible haha

Morning ladies, I am jumping off this thread as I have moved myself over to the May Babies thread😁I tested positive across the weekend, AF isn't due until Thursday so i'm finding it hard to believe at the moment but every test is positive, clear blue estimating 1-2 weeks.
Wishing everyone so much luck and giving hugs to those that need it, this thread and previous threads over the last several months have been such a help and support, hope to see lots more move over to a due date thread.

Sorry I mean @1441x

heartheart89 · 02/09/2024 10:31

I'm only 6/7 dpo so tell me why I want to test knowing full well it's too early. 🤣

Confusedmermaid1 · 02/09/2024 11:01

@heartheart89 yeah I hurt my own feelings testing too early this cycle 😅 tested yesterday at 8 dpo and thought I had a vvvvvfl and then this morning at 9dpo it was a bfn. I told myself I would not be testing at this point and I couldn’t resist. I know it’s early so I’m not out yet but I don’t know why I do it to myself 😭😂
AF due Saturday so I know I’m not out at this point but going to try not to test until at least Saturday if I can resist.

MrsKurz · 02/09/2024 11:04

I’m glad I’m continuing ovulation tests as the test is even darker this morning than yesterday, temp still low. I will probably start doing 2 tests a day now. I’m also sure I’m having some ovulation pain today which I normally would just ignore. I’ve never noticed it before but now I’m tracking properly it’s more helpful to see what’s happening. I’ve also noticed EWCM this month which again I’ve never really paid attention to before

rebecca199 · 02/09/2024 11:18

That feeling of seeing your tests get lighter and hcg going down is awful 😢
Changing my apps from pregnant to TTC again and joining you lovely ladies back on this wild journey.
Hoping it happens again quickly for us but I can't lie I'm so scared to see the words pregnant again after how crazy the last couple of weeks have been

Room4onemore · 02/09/2024 13:51

Ok I’m confused, I’m using clearblue now and I’m cd12. My test says negative but I’m getting ovulation pain on my left side

1441x · 02/09/2024 14:38

@TTCIrish Thank you and of course!
I'm 26, this will be baby number 2 for us. I stopped using contraception in April this year so took around 5 cycles to conceive.
I take Folate as oppose to Folic Acid as it is easier to absorb in its raw form, alongside omega3, probiotic, Vitamin D and Vitamin C.
I didn't have sex on ovulation day or the day after on this cycle, I had sex twice in the both days before ovulation on this cycle and other cycles i've been having sex on ovulation day so maybe having the day before is better?
Hope this helps x

ksbgTTC · 02/09/2024 15:35

I'm so impatient and couldn't hold out to tomorrow morning to test again so took a trip to tesco and... the easy @ home was a squinter but CB is undeniable!!

I can't believe it...I've had a few symptoms but ones I put down to my period due soon!!

  • Feeling a bit queasy - not bad at all, just noticeable
  • Very spotty - more than usual for pre-period spots but I have had the odd cycle where its been this bad before my period
  • Perhaps my funniest symptom and the one that did make me think 'hmmm maybe I am' - I saw a tik tok of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders performing their thunderstruck routine and cried at the end it moved me so much???😂

Hi everyone hope you don’t mind me joining the thread. I’m DPO 7 now and struggling in this TWW. I have unexplained infertility (this is my 18th cycle TTC with no luck so far) and I’m really struggling to stay hopeful now. Any distraction welcome!
