I'm currently 7dpo (assuming I ovulated on 23/09)

Trying my hardest not to symptom spot but it’s so hard! I’ve been run down and poorly with a viral infection so can’t really pinpoint any symptoms I just feel like pure cack!

Anyone else at a similar stage in their cycle?

@Es92 also try think if you did have an implantation bleed today then I'm sure I've read the pregnancy hormone can take 48 hours to start to rise after that so if you do test tomorrow and nothing don't think your out!!! Xx

Es92 · 03/10/2024 07:08

Morning, how are you all feeling today?
I've tested again with FMU, still very negative. Telling myself I'm only 7dpo today so there's still time

Duckwars · 03/10/2024 08:11

Tested with one those I bought yesterday that aren't the early ones, for a split second I thought I seen something but it was just my line eyes 😂

@Es92 yeah 7dpo is still early, try not to be too disappointed as you have plenty of time yet.

Maybebaby2025 · 03/10/2024 09:16

Can I join? Not using OPKs so don’t know exactly when I ovulated but I reckon I’m around 6/7dpo. Chronic early tester here though no tests in the house so will hold out as many days as I can.

Duckwars · 03/10/2024 09:31

@Maybebaby2025 when do you think you'll test?

Lemonsugar90 · 03/10/2024 10:23

Tested today at 10dpo and stark white BFN 😞 I just feel like I know I’m not going to get a positive this cycle. Pessimistic I know..

had sex with partner last night and had the most intense cramps after orgasm.. which I’ve noticed I get around this stage of every cycle so I’m counting myself out already! AF due Sunday/Monday time.

Just out of curiosity, is anyone taking any supplements etc? I have regular periods but seem to take a long time to conceive. I used conceive plus lube when TTC my daughter and after 2 months I got caught - I know it can be sheer coincidence and part of me doesn’t really believe it was that so not sure whether to waste the money on it.

Duckwars · 03/10/2024 10:30

@Lemonsugar90 sorry to hear it was bfn, but you know deep down you aren't out yet.

As for supplements, I was taking seven seas trying for a baby but it messed up my cycle last month so stopped taking them. If you can afford it then go for the conceive plus lube, no harm in giving it a go even if it wasn't anything to do with you getting pregnant before, it's always worth a try. How long have you been trying?

Lemonsugar90 · 03/10/2024 10:50

@Duckwars yeah I know I’m technically not out till AF arrives and I won’t be able to help myself testing every day til AF does arrive anyway now🤦🏼‍♀️😂 been trying for 6/7 months now. I’ll be ordering a bulk pack of ovulation tests when AF comes so I don’t run out before my peak like this cycle! And yes you’re right in regards to the lube, suppose I have nothing to lose and it’s less than £20.

how long have you been ttc?

@Lemonsugar90 sounds like a good plan but hopefully you won't need them.

This is 2nd cycle for me. Wasn't going to try for a 3rd as my history has been mc, dd, mc and then ds so in my head if I become pregnant again it would mc given what's happened before. However I know that may not happen and my heads in a better place regarding it all so going for it.

Lemonsugar90 · 03/10/2024 11:19

@Duckwars ahhh that sounds so similar to me. Also trying for my 3rd. I had a chemical and a mc before DS.. then another mc before my DD. Both were early before the 6 week mark but I just can’t even imagine what it feels like seeing those 2 lines again.. the nerves, fear and excitement all in one. Hopefully we get some bfps in here ladies🤞🏼❤️

Hi all, can I join you please?

TTC #2, only first cycle. Came off the pill mid August, had a period mid September and apparently ovulated around the 26th. I had absolutely zero ovulation signs though, no ewcm, nothing. We did have sex pretty much everyday for 9 days (it was intense 😂) but then I had some spotting on 27-29th.. it wasn’t implantation so I’m hoping it was late ovulation and we’ve still caught it?

Im not really sure if I even ovulated this month but based off Flo I’m around 7dpo.

Said I would just go with the flow but here I am on the first cycle, testing at 7do!!

Really would love to join you ladies as I don’t have anyone to chat to about this in real life!

Gellato · 03/10/2024 13:12

Dont feel bad @Es92, if it helps I did a test today thinking I probably implanted yesterday based on fluttery feelings and I've got a negative just now.
I'm going away with a friend for a couple of days tomorrow but you can bet I'm taking some tests with me 🤣

Also hi @FMc208 ! We're on the same cycle by the looks of it :)

FMc208 · 03/10/2024 13:32

@Gellato Hi! Yes looks like - that’s IF my body fell back into regular cycles after the pill and I actually did ovulate! 🤞🏼

I’m also going away this weekend! But I won’t take any tests with me, I’ve been going back and forth but I think I’ll test tomorrow morning and then again on Monday. AF supposed to be due on the 10th-11th if everything is regular!

Have you got any other symptoms?

Cycle 1 and I’ve already turned into an obsessive tester 😭 why do I do it to myself!

Maybebaby2025 · 03/10/2024 14:14

@Lemonsugar90 I took coq10 when trying for my second, think you need to take it for a couple of months before it has an effect.

@Duckwars I’ll probably start testing tomorrow tbh at 8dpo, would love to hold out until Monday when I’ll be more like 11 but I know what I’m like lol

Maybebaby2025 · 03/10/2024 14:16

Also nice to have a couple of others trying for a third too, I think most people think we are mad!

Duckwars · 03/10/2024 14:43

@Lemonsugar90 it definitely is a mixed bag of emotions and when those bfps happen, getting to those weeks will be hard. With both mine I bled the day before the 3 month scan so I know exactly how those early weeks will feel like, but we got this!

@FMc208 hi 👋 hopefully you have ovulated, keep us updated!

@Maybebaby2025 they aren't wrong though 😂 mines still only sleep roughly 4 hours at night despite being 8 & 9 and yet I'm wanting another 😂

Duckwars · 03/10/2024 14:44

@Gellato enjoy your few days away!

Gellato · 03/10/2024 14:59

@Maybebaby2025 I'd happily go for a third! I'm one of 3, I think it's more common than people think.
@Duckwars love the username by the way 😁 thank you that's so kind! I've never been to a spa before so looking forward to it.

As for symptoms my end, I'm picking up on some very light cramps. A week pre period feels a bit odd, but I think I had this with my last. I'm going to try and hold off until 9dpo, it turns out from my old notes that's when I first got a vfl!

Duckwars · 03/10/2024 15:06

@Gellato ah thank you, I had a star wars duck in front of me when deciding 😂

Oh exciting, not long to go then! My tests are currently 1 stop away. Not had many symptoms other than being wet ever since ovulated and on and off cramps, yesterday was the worst but today so far nothing.

Duckwars · 03/10/2024 15:57

Spoke too soon, cramps are back very slightly.

FMc208 · 03/10/2024 18:10

Anyone testing in the morning? I’ll be around 8dpo (best case scenario!) and I won’t be able to help myself even though it’ll be BFN.

Second best scenario is I ovulated later (when I was spotting at the weekend).

Worst case I didn’t ovulate at all 😭

slothbat · 03/10/2024 18:11

@FMc208 oh stop don't encourage me. I'll be 8dpo too!! Eek!! Are you?!

FMc208 · 03/10/2024 18:17

@slothbat Yeah I’m going to, I’m not even going to pretend to myself that I won’t 😂 I’ve been an absolute POAS addict for the past couple of days even though I KNOW there is no way it’ll be a BFP. I don’t know why I do it!

Have you got any tests at home?

Floomobal · 03/10/2024 18:17

Hi, can I join?

Currently 8DPO, AF due Wednesday. On cycle4, TTC #2

slothbat · 03/10/2024 18:18

@FMc208 I have one but it isn't an early response test 😂😂😂 oh no don't now I won't have will power tomorrow 😂😂😂😂
