Nov 2024 TTC 💖 part 2 ✨

[CoolSummer89]

Hi all,
We have reached 500 posts in the part 1 thread already and we are only a third of the way through November!! Starting a new thread here.

@Runsandbuns i can definitely see great darkening between the 2!!! Remember everyone’s body and hcg levels will be different and also you can get very different results depending on the test! I agree once you’ve seen a darkening you’re happy with, not a bad idea to stop testing :)I booked a private scan with a company called meet your miracle but people have advised not to go until at least 7 weeks incase you don’t see much and it makes you worry more.

thank you so much for your kind words, we managed to fall pregnant after 7 months trying which I know isn’t a long time by any means, but as this is my first pregnancy it came as a bit of a shock that it had actually happened even though it’s what I’ve been dreaming of if that makes sense!

just want to get past this pesky first few months / get to 12 weeks BUT you’re right I need to try and enjoy the moment.. thank you so much xx

Congratulations!!! Xx

Thank you @Wondergirl1111 💐. I also have just had period cramps (I normally get the first batch about a week before I'm due) so feeling less and less positive (literally) so just want to cry, but I'm grateful for your support xx

We are cycle day 5 🙋🏼‍♀️ following close behind you. All the best for this/next month xxx

Can anyone shed some light?
Premom has just moved my ovulation to earlier (it originally predicted today) based on my BBT. I'm using Clearblue digital tests only this month so I can't record them on the app! I got my static smiley on 12th November. I reckon I must have ovulated yesterday, 13th, looking at this (and because of the peak on Tuesday) but would you agree?
My first month using temping!

Well that’s me out this month, af arrived a day early. Good luck everyone

Good luck to you this cycle 🤞 I have everything crossed for both of us!
I used preseed lube last month but didn’t seem to do anything 😅 we’re not changing anything this month apart from when we DTD so we’ll see what happens! Xxx

There's still time!! I tested 9dpo negative with one pregnancy and then positive at 11dpo xx

Sending you love for your funeral Friday ❤️
I have my Nan's funeral next Wednesday and I'll be 9dpo, I will take a test and hope she's sent me my rainbow angel 👼🏼

Bless your heart - sending it right back.Xx

I caved and tested this morning. BFN at 12dpo with AF due tomorrow. I really feel like that’s me out for the month.
It’s really hitting me hard. I was putting so much pressure on myself to get pregnant again first try after MMC. It’s been such a hard few months and I really feel like I’ve not even begun processing everything.

This is going to sound a bit weird but it might bring some comfort to some of you who are disappointed. I try to think that I will only get pregnant when it's the right egg to make my baby. I don't know if that even makes sense but obviously any egg/sperm combo will be different, so maybe your body/fate is just waiting for the right one. It might seem a bit silly, but sometimes reframing things can really help.

@LolaJ87 I tell myself the same and told myself this to comfort myself when I had an early loss

I think I am also out this month. Af hasn't arrived and isn't due to arrive for another 4 days but I took an early detection test, a digital one and it said not pregnant so I think I can count myself out now :(
I'm absolutely gutted, I really swore things were different this month 😔

Oh no @Inked1518 🙁I don't think the digitals are as sensitive as some of the other early tests. Fingers crossed you're not out yet, as I know you had some promising symptoms and then those CB evaps.

@LolaJ87 aww thank you but I read that 96% of people will have their positive on an early test from 5 or 4 days before so I'm just taking it as what it is I guess. Heartbroken but it'll be worse I think if I keep holding on to false hope too. I'll update if by some miracle my period doesn't arrive 🥰

I'm genuinely so confused because (sorry for TMI) when I check my CM there's more of it today than yesterday and it's white creamy/lotiony type, normally before AF I am as dry as a bone. Gotta stop holding on to hope

@Inked1518 was woken up this morning with nausea and indigestion/awful gassy feeling in my stomach. I've been burping before eating anything and couldn't eat my breakfast. Don't want to get ahead of myself but this is exactly the way I felt last time round. Just need to wait and see how it develops and put it out my mind. Always a possibility my dinner last night was a bit iffy, who knows?!

@Readysetgooo I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!! When are you due AF?? I'm praying it never shows for you!

@MoonDaydream my sympathies, I had a MMC in July and I remember not feeling ready to see a positive and also being devastated that it wasn’t positive at the same time my first cycle trying again. My cycles still seem a bit erratic following the MC.. Hopefully it will be our time soon 🤞🏼

@Inked1518 I think 20/21st so still a week to go. I've ordered a couple of FRERs which I think should work at the weekend. I'm away for work next week and don't want to test when I'm away on my own so hopefully get an answer before then, either way.

For ages I've been telling my husband how I miss being pregnant and it was a lovely time. Today, this awful burning in my stomach brings it all back how sick and uncomfortable I was for most of it. All worth it of course but awful in the moment.

After af arriving this morning dh and I had a chat we are 40 (me) and 46 and decided it’s worth investing in some at home tests so I’ve ordered hertility and exseed once we get the results we’ll decide on our next steps.

Hi, 👋
Although a bit late in the month I would like to join this thread please! 😊
Currently 7DPO and no confidence on if I've had O this month at all, tried opk but didn't have a peak. This is after MC at five weeks, early October. All to say, I actually don't know where my body is currently in the cycle!! Has anyone got some experience to share on how long it took for O to happen after a MC?

Otherwise, wishing everyone who is waiting to test, a big good luck 🍀! And congratulations to those who have confirmed pregnancies! 🎉

Sending love @Sugarcube84 , it's a big step but sounds positive xx

@Sugarcube84 i have also ordered hertility, they say to take the blood on 3rd day of your cycle. I ordered last month after AF and will be using it this month when AF comes (due tomorrow)!
