I'm not even sure when my at is due because of late ovulation. My apps are all saying different things, I think I might use a cheapie on Saturday if I haven't started spotting like usual!

Floralcat · 04/02/2025 18:38

Hi everyone hope you’re all doing well.. AF is now a week late for me but pregnancy tests are negative :( I was taking sevenseas conception vitamins and think they’ve messed my cycle up so I’ve stopped them now.. It’s the only thing I can put it down to as AF is always regular .. a day or 2 early if anything 🤷🏻‍♀️ not been this late before x

Tia22 · 04/02/2025 19:42

Hi again everyone!
Hope everyone's doing ok...
I'm day 24 today and think I've ovulated today or tomorrow from tests etc. But I've got a cold today as well, does anyone know if that can affect it all being successful?
Was trying to feel positive about this one!! xx

Littledot2 · 04/02/2025 20:35

@Digby86 I tested stark white at 9dpo with my son and then v.faint line 12dpo - he's 2 now! Still a chance 🤞

Shoopshoopshoopy · 04/02/2025 20:50

Hello, can I join? 😊

Just starting ttc number 2. AF is now 3 days late and making me wait 🙄 Ready for her to make her appearance so we can get going!

lynzmb · 04/02/2025 20:50

Hello all 👋🏻 cd5, cycle 6, TTC #2 at 40. Had a bonkers (for me) 38 day cycle last month due to being ill I hope! So have already started with the old OPKs as no chance I'm missing my peak this month. I have Premom and Clue app and they are a week apart in predicted ovulation day - helpful 😂 so if you need me I'll be POAS 👍🏻

Is it possible you ovulated late? AF is usually around 14 days after peak.

I am sometimes 12ish. My last cycle was randomly 4 days late - it’s so frustrating because it tricks you into thinking you’re pregnant until you test negative 😩.

Floralcat · 05/02/2025 06:06

12dpo and complete bfn this morning so think i will stop testing now unless AF late! Crossing fingers for everyone else testing this week xx

pinkrose001 · 05/02/2025 08:21

Morning ladies, have had 2 friends announce pregnancies in the space of a week and another this morning. Finding it tough when you so want that to be you. Best of luck to those testing this week x

ThisAquaOP · 05/02/2025 08:47

Hi everyone, been reading for ages and thought I would take the plunge and join if that’s ok. 35F & partner 40M, TTC for #1 after a loss last July. Been trying since January 23 but also lost my dad in October 23 so the stress/grief on top of the miscarriage hasn’t helped. This cycle I ovulated CD16 confirmed with CB static smiley and then weirdly CD 23-26 I’ve had some bleeding. I have a regular 28 day cycle so no idea whether this is my period coming early - just my luck. Tested today (around 11DPO) and couldn’t have been more negative. The sadness just never gets easier does it. Period due Saturday. Good luck to everyone else POAS this week.

Welcome, I think you're on the same cycle dates as loads of us. Sorry to hear about your losses, that's a lot to deal with in such a short space of time.

AF due on Tuesday for me and trying to stay relaxed and avoid symptom spotting. Have woken up very grumpy today and just feel a bit fed up with it all. I was trying to focus on doing things I missed in my last pregnancy, like playing sport, but now I've done too much of that and injured myself 😅.

@pinkrose001 it's so bittersweet. It's nice for them but also really hard to see

BeSassyPanda · 05/02/2025 09:40

Hi everyone, thought I’d join too. I am 1DPO! I got a positive LH test CD14, assuming I ovulated CD15. We managed to DTD CD 10, 12, 13 and 15 so I’m hoping we caught it this month. Second month trying following a miscarriage in December at 8 weeks. Sending positive pregnancy energy to everyone

carolinep3 · 05/02/2025 09:41

@AlbatrossSociety I injured myself playing sport last night too. Now in this weird little world of ttc worried I've ruined my changed of implantation as it likes a stress free body and I'm obviously in pain 😬 ridiculous as that sounds 🙈

@DaringlyDizzy in a spin now as literally was just about to leave and had one ‘ last look’ at this mornings test and there is a vvfl- cant work out how to upload a pic the add picture button seems to have gone for me 🤣

i think might just be an evap as defo didnt see it first thing, but equally have not had a hint of evap on any of the other 15 premom tests ive dont this week so part of me hoping i ovulated a day later than i thought and this could be something 🙈

carolinep3 · 05/02/2025 10:27

That's exciting @Floralcat ! Yeh I read about the photo thing being taken down. Hopefully back soon, if I'm lucky enough to get a vvfl o want confirmation from everyone else 😂

@AlbatrossSociety Thanks so much for the warm welcome and kind words! So sorry to hear you’ve injured yourself, that’s rubbish especially if sport gives you an escape from the world of TTC. Wishing you a speedy recovery and also hope AF steers clear for you come Tuesday!

@DaringlyDizzy @confusedmum25 @carolinep3 omg that has made me feel absolutely sick to my stomach that someone did that how awful!

will probably hold testing off until tomorrow morning as only have a single cheapie and FRER with me on trip !! Want to know by friday if a real line as need to know re glass of wine 🤣

keep us updated with all your tests as well! Xx

I got my darkest line on the ovulation strips on CD22 so I think that’s what happened, this is our first month Ttc #3 and I’ve never had a cycle this long before so typical! What CD are you on? Xx

Tia22 · 05/02/2025 11:36

Welcome to the thread!
So sorry to hear about your losses. That's so awful and it does make the TTC process even harder too.
We have been trying for our first for over 2 years now and a bit like you lost my husband's Dad this time last year so the added grief and stress onto the situation has not helped!

I'm starting to freak about my cycles now, I ovulate later than I think you should so I'm worried there is an issue there. Going to contact the doctors this week to get tests booked in again.
Just keep burying my head but the heartbreak every month is just horrific and like you say, doesn't get any easier!!

Sending big hugs xx
