@Butterflygirl23 I'm waiting to ovulate too! I think Saturday by the looks of things. We're away for the night so hopefully there will be lots of BD 😂

Butterflygirl23 · 03/04/2025 14:20

We are all mostly looking like we will ovulate around the same time how exciting!

@SureLookyou’ve timed it right then 😂

@Butterflygirl23I’m also due to ovulate in the next few days. Trying to BD as much as possible and hoping this will be our month

AlbatrossSociety · 03/04/2025 16:53

We're cycle twins!

jelliebean9 · 03/04/2025 19:39

@PeaSar93 congratulations!!

jelliebean9 · 03/04/2025 19:42

I think I’m 6dpo today. My nipples are starting to really hurt. Which isn’t a usual PMS thing for me. But I did have very sore boobs when I was pregnant with my son in the TWW. I’m still not counting it though as it’s still far too early 😂 I’m sure it’s normal hormones! Keep telling myself I’m not pregnant so I’m less disappointed by the bfn 😬

@BerrieSweet ah sweetie, thank you for always being so supportive, and you always find something nice to say to everyone 😍
If this is going to be your 5th cycle trying, please try not to stress (I know it's hard) If you are under 35 and you have been trying under 12 months it is considered nornal. But do the testing, perhaps it will help you to stop worrying. Sending big hugs 🤗 BTW my husband also has a sperm test but in May. It's too long to wait aaaah 😫

Almost teared up reading this, I know this deep inside but It hits different when someone else says it 🥹❤️ I just keep wondering about why It’s not happening to me and everyone else gets lucky getting pregnant their first try. I’m 23 and my mum got pregnant on accident with all her four kids (lol) so I think I have good genetics, my DP is 34 so a bit older. All the tests are planned next cycle so It will be a big relief regardless the result when we get them. I’m praying so hard for us, you seem so nice as well! ❤️ May is close now!! I’m thinking about you and crossing fingers for us and everyone in this thread!!🩷

Muddysocks1 · 04/04/2025 08:00

It’ll happen @BerrieSweet and all ❤️
It’s been over a year for me although I think a few months we didn’t BD in fertile window for various reasons, I’m not allowing myself to count the cycles because I worry that’ll make me worry more. husband is going to have a sperm test at the gp.

My temperature has gone up the last 2 days but tested with FMU and BFN today (9DPO). Could still change but it feels less likely. On the plus side I’m trying to lose weight and my weight was slightly less on the scales this morning so that’s something!!

Muddysocks1 · 04/04/2025 08:01

Also don’t know about anyone else but I’m using the whole Christmas baby thing as a reason to not feel as much pressure about this one month. Or that’s what I’m telling myself at least 🤣

SureLook · 04/04/2025 08:59

@Muddysocks1 fingers crossed for your BFP this month. And that's great about the weight loss 👏🏻
I'm happy enough for a December baby but I don't want a January baby so I'll be more relaxed next month if it doesn't happen this month 😂

2Sugars2 · 04/04/2025 10:27

can I ask a question about LH levels.... premom has me ovulating over the weekend (originally it did say thurs/fri) but my LH levels are really low compared to this time last month, so it is now saying I could be delayed this month. Should I be concerned? sorry if this is a dumb question.. I'm a newbie to all this. Is it normal for LH levels to fluctuate month to month. If anything, my LH levels seems to be going down rather than up!

I wouldn’t worry too much looking back at my previous cycles I’ve had a mix of gradual rise into peaks and peaks that come out of no where.

Butterflygirl23 · 04/04/2025 13:37

My strips are still really light but I’ve had CM this morning so I’m hoping it’s the start of my fertile window. I usually get CM for about 2/3 days before I ovulate so I think it’ll not be till around Monday/tuesday but il still keep testing over the weekend. Hope everyone is getting on ok

im exactly the same! Excited by the prospect of a pre Christmas baby. But not excited by a mid January baby. Poor kid being born in the month when everyone is jaded and broke 😂 x

MayaB · 04/04/2025 15:36

@Muddysocks1 I can totally relate to this 🤗. We have been trying for a long time and I am trying not to think about it but it's hard to ignore. I do have a son from a previous marriage, so the GP thinks that the issue maybe on hubby's end. I am so nervous about his tests next month...

@BerrieSweet thank you for your kind words sweetheart ❤️ You both are still so young and you do have good genetics 👌 I really belive you will have news for us soon. 🤞 We will support each other 🤗

Thomsonetthompson · 04/04/2025 20:38

January baby also means Christmas pregnant which isn't ideal! Though possibly middle-end of January birthday is better than Christmas bday.

I'm 13dpo now but only got 2 strip tests left so trying to wait for my period to come rather than testing. I used about 20 tests during my miscarriage "so they didn't go to waste" and regretting that now!

It’s definitely swings and roundabouts with these couple months isn’t it? We decided we didn’t want to loose the couple of months of trying, even if it isn’t ideal I’m still finger crossing hard 🙏

you’ve got so much willpower holding out to 13dpo, so you’re 14dpo today?? How do you feel?? When is af due?

Roxanna2000 · 05/04/2025 07:56

@MayaBmy husband is 48. 😁 I have him on allll the supplements. I’m quite a bit younger (early 30s). I tested 6-10DPO and all negatives. My BBT has also dropped the last few days so I’m just waiting for my period now really.

May will come before you know it but in the meantime I’d just keep trying just in case it catches! 💕

Butterflygirl23 · 05/04/2025 08:00

My ovulation strip is so much darker today compared to the last few days as they have been barely visible but still not positive but i definitely think it’ll be within the next day or so. Had CM again this morning so positive signs. Need to try DTD tonight lol

Muddysocks1 · 05/04/2025 08:56

Agree still fingers crossed for this cycle despite the timing.

10DPO and BFN this morning. I know could still test positive (been stalking Fertility Friend charts for ones who had a positive after 10DPO and there’s loads!) 🤞🏻

@Muddysocks1when I was pregnant in December I got a very very faint positive at 10dpo but it was at 7pm then got a faint positive on a CB the following afternoon then 1-2 day after but the other 2 pregnancies I waited for my AF x
