Hey all, 4po tomorrow! Would love company to make the days go quicker 😁

Cycle 2 TTC after an early MC last month! DP works nights so trying this month wasn't great timing wise. We managed to BD 5 and 2 days before ovulation so I'm hoping it's enough.

Morning ladies!

Well, it's stark white this morning so def an evap yesterday 🤦🏻‍♀️. Now I WILL NOT be testing again until Saturday 😂😂

Xx

Why do we do it to ourselves, you okay? What cycle day did you peak?

lockdownbabyx · 10/10/2024 08:00

@OverthinkingBrain yeah I'm ok thank you! I knew it was too early, I don't know why we do it 😂. I got my peak on the 2nd October and then ovulated on the 3rd, confirmed with bbt. So I'm only 7dpo, which is definitely too early 😂

@OverthinkingBrain sorry that wasn't even your question 😂 told you I have brain fog lol.
I got my peak on CD28. Had a longer cycle due to the early MC I had in September xx

I think lots of us are in the same boat! I woke up starving this morning even though i had my tea really late last night. Went to Greggs for a coffee and the smell of the hot breakfast made me sick!! Could (more than likely) be nothing at all…but deep down i want to take it as a sign haha!

Eekk keep us updated

lockdownbabyx · 10/10/2024 08:25

@Marie1990x yes still plenty of time so I don't feel too deflated yet 😁. This brain fog I'm having is making me think I am pregnant though. I tried to hand my daughter a bottle of bbq sauce this morning rather than her water bottle 😂. I just keep doing / saying all things 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ooh when are your bloods? Keep us updated 🤞🏼 xx

OverthinkingBrain · 10/10/2024 08:26

I'm a little confused because I track on 2 apps lol! I peaked at CD 17 which I did the same last month too. One app says I'm due on 15th normal 28 days and one has moved it to 18th. Anyone got any experience on this when you don't ovulate the standard day 14 does it delay your period abit?

lockdownbabyx · 10/10/2024 08:26

@OverthinkingBrain yes def not out yet! Positive thoughts ladies 😁🤞🏼 xx

I caved and tested this morning at 8DPO, definately Negative, going to try and wait till saturday now ive got 1 out of my system... We'll see tomorrow 😂

Marie1990x · 10/10/2024 08:52

@lockdownbabyx haha that made me laugh about the bbq 😂😂. Some people just have a gut feeling don’t they so hopefully it’s correct 🤞🏻.

I’ve just had them done now. Guessing the results will be in the app until at least tomorrow morning. Hoping it is by then as I don’t want to wait all weekend

@OverthinkingBrain do you have a regular time you come on after your peak? Mine is always exactly 2 weeks so although my apps say different dates (similar to you, I use 2 and both say different), but I know it will always be 2 weeks

OverthinkingBrain · 10/10/2024 08:57

@Marie1990x well it's only my third cycle ttc since coming off the pill, when I came off I had my normal withdrawal, got my period almost 2 weeks later and then had 28 day cycles since but I didn't track opks until last cycle and this one. But last month I noticed i was only light spotting on CD 28 and 29 so now I'm thinking maybe that doesn't count as period and my cycles are 30 days....why is this all so confusing 😂

Haha nothing is ever simple! Especially with ttc and our bodies 😂. I think as a general rule of thumb it’s 14-16 days from ovulation you’d be due on (thanks google 😂), but obviously can vary person to person. I don’t get spotting prior so I’m not sure about that bit. Sorry that probably wasn’t very helpful 🤣

MyGardenDaisies · 10/10/2024 10:24

Honestly why do we do this to ourselves?

Im 7DPO, and tested with FRER and it’s negative.
I “see” something only if messing with editing tools and inverting colours… 🙈

Not losing hope as it’s so early, but I know I’ll probably test again this afternoon when my cheap strips get delivered. Ugh 😣

Marie1990x · 10/10/2024 10:36

I caved and tested too. Obviously BFN. I used the boots own cheapie strip tests for the first time and geez even the test line is sooooo light compared to others!!! Considering how light that line is I don’t think they’ll be very good for an early test 😣😣😣

4dpo tomorrow! Anyone else? :)
MyGardenDaisies · 10/10/2024 10:55

Here’s my negative. I convinced myself I can see some pink colour patches but a positive should be visible with a normal eye without squinting or contrasts

4dpo tomorrow! Anyone else? :)
MyGardenDaisies · 10/10/2024 10:57

@Marie1990x To be fair I don’t know if there’s a good test for early testing at all, I had read that FRER are the best and then kept seeing that everyone gets indents and evaps with that too , same with Boots.

hard to be impatient and want a baby 🥲😅

Sugarcube84 · 10/10/2024 11:00

Well I'm either 7 or 8 dpo today so I'm halfway though the TWW. I've stocked up on tests, got a load of cheapy strips plus 2 FRER and 2 boots own and then I've got a digital in my amazon basket ready to check out 😂

How's everyone doing through the TWW?

MyGardenDaisies · 10/10/2024 11:02

@Sugarcube84 it seems all of us are 7DPO and have tested negative already 🙈😂

Sugarcube84 · 10/10/2024 11:04

MyGardenDaisies · 10/10/2024 11:02

@Sugarcube84 it seems all of us are 7DPO and have tested negative already 🙈😂

I'm trying to be patient, only tested positive with my other 2 when my period was late not that it will stop me testing when we get to next week 😂

Marie1990x · 10/10/2024 11:11

@MyGardenDaisies haha that is sooo true! Something does catch my eye in yours to be fair.

I try to avoid the contrast thing too, but I did put mine in greyscale just now out of interest and can sort of see the evap 😂.

Patience definitely isn’t our strong suit is it 😅

4dpo tomorrow! Anyone else? :)

Haha well stocked! I have more tests in my Amazon basket too but will get them once I get confirmation I ovulated.

TWW has been ok up until now 🤣. I wish I could wait until at least next week like you!

lockdownbabyx · 10/10/2024 11:30

I don't feel too bad now I so many of us have tested at 7dpo 😂

With my first I got a positive on a clear blue at 9dpo so I just know I will feel deflated if I don't get a line on Saturday. So hard isn't it!
