Hi everyone
moving over to March now as AF has arrived today. That means my last cycle was 26 days. My cycles haven’t been the same since being on the depo injection. I’ve had 33, 28, 31, 29, 21 lol. As long as I ovulate then I’m happy.

Is temperature the only way to know if you have actually ovulated?

Hey 1st cycle since having the coil removed last month, currently cd 22 I'm not sure when I ovulated to know how many dpo I am, my youngest is 11mo and it took 2+ years to conceive her i drove myself insane and was so depressed throughout my ttc journey with constant bfn. I did everything under the sun religiously did opks, bbt, pre seed and it was too much looking back i can't put myself through that so we're just praying it happens without me turning into a crazy chick 😂

I have 14yo,12yo,10yo,9yo & 11mo hoping to add baby no6 to our family and complete it 🙏❤️

Goodluck ladies i pray for your bfp to arrive soon x

Entering cycle 3 of TTC and I've just completed day 2 of AF. Ovulation is due 23 feb 🥰 I would rather have a baby in nov than dec so I hope this is our cycle 😂 But would be happy either way ofc!

Hi everyone, moving over from the Feb group. I'm not out yet but won't be testing until beginning of March.

I'm 34, I'm currently on my 5th cycle TTC after missed miscarrige June 24. This month has been super confusing as haven't found my peak yet and my LH is going up and down. On CD 24 and normally ovulate between 19 and 21. Clears blues have been flashing for 10 days now!

I was thinking that yesterday. Happy either way but obviously slightly better if not right on Christmas 😂

I'm almost exactly the same as you! Cycle 3, day 3 of AF today so same as you, ovulation around the same time (I temped the first month then didn't last month so I'm not really sure on ovulation and going by typical time periods which I know could be way off).

I flip flop between wanting to get ovulation tests, temp, etc etc so we can try to time it right...and just wanting to do the deed regularly and not get so stressed about it. But we don't naturally do it enough so not sure which is less stressful!!

carolinep3 · 12/02/2025 17:14

At finally showed here! Cd2 now! Although I know cd1 is the first day of full flow, but if it doesn't start until 7pm I wonder if you still count that as cd1 🤔

DaringlyDizzy · 11/02/2025 10:09

@AlbatrossSociety has she arrived. I am feeling well and truly fed up now. I just double checked Flo and I am officially 18DPO. No AF. I am having cravings like I usually do before AF but they are usually for chocolate and this time it was the total opposite. I wanted salt and ended up making a rosemary and olive loaf. Issue is it gives me hope that i could be pregnany but theres no chance at 18DPO with BFN

NOTHING. Although some quite intense cramping, I'm expecting to start tomorrow. Still very much negative on tests so I know she's coming. How about you?

I'm kind of sad to see some of you guys come over from Feb thread but also selfishly happy to have your company!

Welcome, welcome. How old are babies 1, 2 and 3?

Sorry about your losses. I think the fed up part is a hard relate for many of us even when we've been trying for less time, so hopefully we can at least make the lonely thing better and have some solidarity in the grump

Can anyone recommend a BBT thermometer? Do I need to invest or will an amazon cheapie do the same thing?

LilyADU · 13/02/2025 11:37

Anyone else TTC baby no.1? Been trying for 9/12. Tests all ok (we are old though!).

I've got like a smart ring to do this for me because I don't have consistent sleep because I've got a toddler. I've only been using it for a few days but I like it so far.

Can someone help me with baby maths? My period is so late that I think I'm now not due to ovulate again until beginning of March, would that mean an early December due date? Or still November!?

When ttc my last i used ovusense it's expensive and has a yearly or monthly subscription charge but i really liked it

Finally LH peak on CD 25!

Does late ovulation have a negative impact on fertility? Is it less likely this month?

carolinep3 · 13/02/2025 14:27

@littlefox90 that is quite late, but depends on how long your luteal phase is. If you have a cycle longer than 35 days could be okay. Luteal phase should be around 14dpo.

Cheapie is fine as long as it is bbt. Mine was about £8 from amazon.

Omg twins!! I know, it’s so hard because you don’t want to think ”what if I just tested/BBT more” if you get BFN, but at the same time you get so obsessed and stressed with all the testing and it makes the journey a bit tougher. I relate 100%!🥹🥰

Pleasestopjumpingonthesofa · 13/02/2025 21:06

@LilyADU TTC our first here too so it's all new to me! We are early 30s but have known issues both sides so if nothing happens within 6 months I think we can speak to the doctor at that point. Which although I don't want that to happen it's weirdly making me more relaxed that there's not too many months to go!

@BerrieSweet exactly that! I've decided to temp and have ordered ovulation sticks for this month too, makes sense with the other health issues to optimise our chances and honestly it's just interesting to learn about my cycle after years of suppressing it!

Nyxxie · 13/02/2025 21:13

Joining from Feb thread, CD2 today.

Been having really bad nausea before and during my period since I stopped the pill, to the point that I threw up this morning. Also a mild fever and dizziness. Never had this before having my son, and I really hope it's not a regular thing now :(

Floralcat · 13/02/2025 21:31

Also hopped over from feb board- CD7 and really on fence whether to just try and do a cycle of using app fertile window again as has seemed accurate past 2 cycles within about 24 hours for ovulation. I did buy a bbt thermometer but im just not sure will be any good as do shifts and toddler still wakes up random hours in night!

reading comments seems like a few in same boat of weighing up how much testing to do etc! Good luck to all for this valentines cycle xx

Miffy1994 · 14/02/2025 10:00

Hopping over from the Feb chat as AF arrived today. Already not got much hope for this cycle as I’m retiring to work from mat leave and DD is starting nursery, so I know I’m going to be stressed!

Room4onemore · 14/02/2025 10:50

Cycle day 7 today so I’ll start testing with my clearblue tomorrow, already using my cheapies and temping

Hello!
I will be TTC in March, we’ve had a very stressful year TTC last Feb we had a missed miscarriage, then after a few months fell pregnant with twins which unfortunately I ended up going into labour with at 24weeks both my twins passed away one at 3 days old and one at 7 days old! So we are going to try again now some time has passed and hopefully have our little rainbow baby!
I defo feel like I might need a bit of support through TTC this time!

Goodness me, I’m so sorry to hear you’ve had such a heartbreaking journey to date. Really hoping things go well for you this time around
