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?

Hi all,

Also jumping over from Feb threads. On CD21 and doesn't look like I'll be ovulating in time to test in Feb. No idea where it is. Think I tend to have two LH surges and not sure where the second one is yet.

@AlbatrossSociety @ThisAquaOP I found out last month that you can link the oura ring with fertility friend for free. Annoyingly I have already paid for NC for the year but I prefer the chart on fertility friend anyway so I just use that now

Oh thank you! Wish I had known that before I signed up for NC. That was my second period tracker subscription so not sure I can justify three 😅.

Anyone due to test soon?

Af is due today i think cd29 i have no intention of testing until Monday next week if no Af by then.

I’ve been looking at the oura ring, have you found it accurate at pinpointing ovulation?

Hi all, jumping over from previous threads. Entering fertile window of cycle #485928 for us 😂or so it feels.
Does anyone use an Oura ring? If this isn’t my cycle, I’m tempted to get one because obviously a £300+ smart ring is going to be the answer! Or so I’ve told my husband ha. Honestly so sick of it all now, I think TTC gives you such a sense of fatigue. On a positive note, @Tia22 crossing fingers and toes for you lovely 💕 Keep us updated.

I’m thinking the exact same, I’ve wanted one for a while but after my loss I feel like it’s a nice treat 🤣🤣

Yeah I think it's as accurate as anything can be, but I never used a thermometer so I cant really compare

marshybeans · 18/02/2025 13:19

How do you guys do this every month?
I only just started trying last month and now my period is due today and I can’t stop thinking about it.
I want to go to the toilet every five minutes and check if it’s come whilst also dreading going to the toilet in case it has come!

I have the worst cramps so trying to remind myself that it very likely will come (I’ve only had two periods since coming off the pill so unsure of what will be regular for me at this moment.) My strange thing which seems to be the opposite for most is that about five days before my last two periods, my nipples have been so sore whereas this time they are absolutely fine!

This is my first time trying and I feel very out of the loop with all of the acronyms on here!

Me neither, have never done bbt before but im up with my toddler in the night so not sure how well it will work

I think the ring is probably your best bet then. Or I have heard people talk about a tempdrop. I think it is another form of wearable but I'm not too sure tbh, however may be something cheaper to look in to!

BGxxx · 18/02/2025 15:44

@cltw I originally looked at it for steps and sleep so I feel like it will be worth it even without ttc

Sunshine924 · 18/02/2025 17:37

Still waiting for AF here, was considering testing again but not sure much point if I got a BFN two days ago - frustrated my cycle just seems longer this month and I'd rather just move on to the next one now

littlefox90 · 19/02/2025 00:49

Anyone have any idea why LH is staying slightly elevated this month?

I've added my chart with previous two months and also a pic of this month 🤔

FINALLY got my second LH surge yesterday, so hoping to ovulate in the next couple of days. Then will likely be testing 7th-10th March if I can hold out that long. Anyone else on a similar timeline? I have no tests in the house this month so hopefully that means I don't break early lol

Saying this, every time I think I have the dates figured out it does something else anyway

Has bottomed out today at 0.06 🤔 maybe just an odd month

Pleasestopjumpingonthesofa · 19/02/2025 18:45

@cltw slightly similar here, ovulation expected anywhere from 21st-25th sort of window (I've only tracked one month with BBT so far, doing OPK and BBT this month but premom is wildly changing its predictions constantly as there's not enough data yet!). But then period due 8th so testing would likely be a similar sort of time to you.

I'm all over the place emotionally today about it all, not quite sure why...ended up on a thread where someone was buying baby clothes and I got all hopeful but this evening I'm feeling like it obviously won't happen this month (it's only cycle 3 of trying). Got a library book and chocolate as distraction!

Got to wait 2-4 weeks for my microbiome test results and then if something is found antibiotics will take 3 month ish to make difference to egg quality etc. don't think it is going to be worth tracking loads for a while here 😢😢😢😩😭

Hello All, just joining in on the chat! TTC number 2. It’s been a rough journey so far. Was pregnant last year after TTC for 18 months but lost the baby at 19 weeks. Just starting to try again. These mumsnet groups were so comforting when we were TTC knowing that I wasn’t alone in struggling! so will be wishing you all lot of luck for this month xx

Is that gut microbiome @carolinep3 ? that sounds interesting thing to do for health generally even if frustrating to have to wait for results etc xx

Hi welcome, I'm sorry to hear about your loss 💔 wishing you all the best for this month and lots of baby dust.

I think I'm out this month, only 6dpo but I just have a feeling. I ovulated late which I know isn't good plus had flashing smileys for about 10 days before ovulation so estrogen was probably high which I googled isn't helpful for conception either 😣

Jo2104 · 20/02/2025 16:39

@Shellbells44 im so sorry for your loss!! I had my twinnies at 24 weeks and they died 3 days old and 7 days old, so can understand how you feel!
hopefully you get pregnant soon and have a successful pregnancy, I can’t even imagine how I’m going to feel once I’m pregnant again, It will be a whole other rollercoaster of emotions I’m sure!

Room4onemore · 20/02/2025 18:03
