I'm predicting peak tomorrow 😬
Started with CM today as well.

Not sure when to start DTD.
I feel a bit headachey tonight...

I think I’ve ovulated! My tests have started declining, and I’m having cramps!!
so if bbt has risen tomorrow I’ll be in the 2WW, anyone similar timing? X

Hey! Think I'll ovulate tomorrow or Thursday so TWW will start Friday 🫠🫠🫠🫠 honestly this is so tiring 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Glad we are in it together!! Do you have a plan of when to test at all?
I feel very impatient 🥲

slothbat · 22/10/2024 21:33

@Frenchtoastie I want to hold off as long as possible as I drove myself crazy last month! Will you aim to test early? Xx

My tests are back on the decline too so I reckon I’ll have either ovulated today or tomorrow at latest, BBT dependant too! 😅 although I have my 2 YO nephew tonight for the night so unsure if I’m going to sleep well so BBT may not be reliable

Lila34830 · 23/10/2024 08:31

Morning gals, good luck for the ones starting the 2WW. I'm CD16 over here and still very low LH which is typical for me at this stage !

@slothbat
I agree it can just cause unnessassry stress but then I just love to know😂 I think I will test 2nd Nov, I am suppose to be at a brunch that day so I will check if I can drink or not but surely that would be quite accurate by then!! Maybe agree a date too? And we can try stick to it 🙈

@KT199 aw hopefully your nephew sleeps through for you. Does your bbt rise slowly after ovulation or does it jump up in one day?

I don’t have PCOS! I had a full internal scan last year when I was 35 to check my eggs etc as hubby and I still weren’t quite ready, defo no pcos

plot twist I obviously came on my period the very next day! I genuinely think something happened I was pretty late and felt funny

i was a bit sad, we didn’t get a house the same day so it was all too much.

just finished so next week back to pee sticks! I forced my husband to speak to his gynae father who said we should be doing it as much as possible 😳 he said eggs can come at any time and the sticks are an indication but I believe in the stick so I’m ignoring him!!!

I TOTALLY agree with whoever said I’m a complete dinosaur and don’t want to do it every day, then I’ll end up with cystitis 😂 it’s soooo unromantic! Can totally see how people get preggo in the early days where you’re bonking with blatant disregard

Will limber up and go again from this weekend 🥰

You are so me! 😂😂😂 I’m over it already but really want a bebe now - would much rather go to Argos and click and collect!

KT199 · 23/10/2024 09:14

God sake I am over this ttc business 😅
Soooo, my app confirmed my ovulation via BBT as CD12 (earliest I’ve ever ovulated in the full year I’ve tracked) and we didn’t start DTD until CD12 and I tried hold off until clear blue flashing smiley (which I didn’t get until CD12) so I really have no clue what’s going on, but if it was CD12 then we have next to 0 chances. I’m just confused as I didn’t get a positive LH test until CD13!!

Lila34830 · 23/10/2024 09:43

@Frenchtoastie I usually rise/peak CD18/19! But I might DTD tonight (we really have no private life don't we ? 😂) just as a start and then twice during rise and peak and maybe once again on ovulation day to make sure !!

@KT199 bless you ! I'm so over it too, and we've " only " been ttc for 3 months , it's draining !!!

Hi everyone I’m 10DPO today, had BFN last night, completely stark white.
just taken this with my first wee & was in bed staring at it angry (lol) it was stark white!!!
within 3 minutes this came up and now my hearts racing….could it be a faint positive?? It looks a bit pinkish in real life. This is a clear and simple ultra early test x

Can 100% see a line there!! Oh wow, you’ll have to test again tomorrow to see if it’s gotten any darker or try with another brand of test! Tentative congratulations 🥳 that looks positive to me, and defo not a squinter like some of the ones I’ve seen!

Hey everyone!

Hope you're all doing well.

I've been a bit quiet as I kept remembering 'it's not over until AF arrives' and being 8 days late for my period i really thought this was my time.

AF has arrived today :(

On the bright side at least I can start tracking this new cycle...

New cycle, new beginning 🫶🏽 I hope
This one is the one. This is so upsetting that you were 8 days late as well, I swear periods mess with us at the worst time!

Thank you all! I’m feeling anxious it’s too good to be true & going to do another one in the morning! Has anyone used clear and simple before? Keep googling false positives just incase 😅

Lila34830 · 23/10/2024 19:41

@Fashionlover123 remember that false positives technically don't exist ! I have my finger crossed for you for a clearer line tomorrow morning !!

slothbat · 23/10/2024 19:49
