Awwww hunny I’m so incredibly happy for you! Congratulations ❤️❤️

@Muddysocks1 Congratulations! Wish you a happy, healthy pregnancy.

I had my peak yesterday evening so should ovulate today. Back to the TWW tomorrow! I won't test till 10DPO with a Boots Early as doing it sooner previously has left me grumpy/despondent for more days. When I did have a BFP the first time it was at 10DPO but I had a BFN at 9DPO. We are off on holiday the day after AF is due so at least a nice distraction.

Amazing 😍😍😍😍 so happy for you!!

My ovulation strip was still negative this morning 🙄

Congratulations @Muddysocks1 what brilliant news. How long have you been trying for? Will this be your first? Sorry if you've already said!

Muddysocks1 · 07/04/2025 09:14

DH also shocked and very happy!

I’m still not convinced it’ll stick (had a thin lining and v light periods) so being a bit tentative, but just trying to enjoy the fact that right not I am pregnant!

I’ve got a GP appt booked to discuss fertility investigations when I’ll be 4 weeks 5 days… I won’t cancel it just yet. Not sure whether I should go anyway but don’t want to waste an appt that someone else could have

Just over a year and it’ll be my first. Never had a Bfp before so it feels surreal!

@Muddysocks1 ah that's fantastic. I would definitely keep the appointment anyway. Always good to link in with your GP x

2Sugars2 · 07/04/2025 09:32

just catching up from over the weekend...and wow what lovely news to read @Muddysocks1 congratulations to you.

@Butterflygirl23 I am literally in the same boat as you. Supposed to have had my peak over the weekend and here I am still waiting... my dates for ovulation on premom keep changing and it has now moved to later this week! I Last month my peak was around CD13/14 and I am already on CD17 now of this cycle... xx

It’s not the best is it. I thought I’d of got my peak by now because before my miscarriages i ovulated the same time every month around CD13/14 and always got EWCM. My premom app is saying Thursday CD19 but that’s only because I think i ovulated CD19 last month few weeks after my miscarriage so maybe it could be right who knows lol have you had any CM yet?

peanutForever · 07/04/2025 09:51

@Muddysocks1maybe the baby aspirin did its magic? As it helps with extra blood flow etc! Defo dont cancel the appt and fingers crossed its a sticky bean

ahh I'm sorry to hear of your miscarriage.
Hmm I thought I was starting with CM last week but it was minimal, not the usual, and my LH only went up slightly and then since then... nothing. low LH and no CM. I am fairly new to tracking ovulation though, so I don't know if it's 'normal' for the dates to vary so much month to month? Are you tracking twice a day?

Butterflygirl23 · 07/04/2025 10:04

@2Sugars2yeah that’s how I’ve been, i thought I was getting CM the last few days too but it’s hardly there not compared to usual, I’ve had some this morning! Yeah twice a day, Do you test twice a day?but I’ve only been logging my morning test on the Premom app because there’s literally no difference between the morning and the afternoon one lol. When I conceived in December my strip was so light CD17 then following morning it was positive so I know it can rise so quick

From speaking to people it can take a while for your cycle to get back to normal. Try not to worry too much although I know how hard that is as I’m cd12 and in the same boat just keep telling myself I’ve had peaks that have come from no where so I’m trying to relax about it.

Yes I’m thinking maybe it did! Also stopped drinking alcohol as read it does reduce chances if you drink in luteal phase so maybe that too ☺️

I had a bit of stop starting with CM and didn't ovulate till CD19 this cycle so definitely empathise with those of you going through that now. Last cycle I ovulated CD 12 so it was a massive change!!

I'm now 7DPO and my BBT dropped this morning, but AF isn't due for another week, I just have no idea what's going on 🫠. My RHR is also really high. I was really going to try not to stress over symptoms this month but that has gone out the window this morning

AlbatrossSociety · 07/04/2025 11:01

@Muddysocks1 huge congratulations!!! So excited for you xx

yeah normally morning time and again in the evening although I did have quite an unhinged moment over the weekend and tested 4 times in one day... I have now idea why as the tests were all the bloomin' same 🙄

Room4onemore · 07/04/2025 12:52

5 days late today and bfn on tests, im cycle day 32 today so hoping she shows up soon so i can get going again

Iris2024 · 07/04/2025 15:12

Hi ladies, is it okay if I join?

Congratulations @Muddysocks1 🩷 what wonderful news!

Im first cycle back TTC number 2 after having 10 months break due to a family holiday. We was trying for 6 months and then stopped. I’m 41 so time is not on my side. I’m currently 3DPO and hoping I see those lines soon.

Good luck to all and look forward to having you all to chat to :)

ThisAquaOP · 07/04/2025 18:37

Hi all just stopping in to say a huge congratulations to @Muddysocks1! So delighted for you!
Welcome to @Iris2024 and everyone else who has joined.
I’m 9DPO today and still haven’t tested so will await my medal in the post 😂. After my chemical last month I just have no desire to test but let’s see how things go over the next few days - old habits die hard !
Good luck to everyone in the dreaded TWW!

BrightSide234 · 07/04/2025 19:33

Hi ladies, hope you don't mind me joining.

Congrats @Muddysocks1 on the BFP!

We're on cycle two TTC, thought we had it this month. Had cramps around 6 DPO that felt different to usual cramps I get, been tired and weirdly thirsty, a little nauseous the last few days too. Tested at 10 DPO and got BFN so figured I'd wait until AF was late to test again. Now 13 DPO, had brown CM when I went to the toilet earlier and have cramps, so think this is AF making an appearance 🙁 Feeling a little down as think this means we're out this cycle and a nice reminder when you go to the toilet isn't it, in case you just stopped thinking 24/7 about TTC 🙈
