April 2025 TTC Support Group

[Muddysocks1]

Starting now as some of us will be in the TWW in April now ☺️

Oh wow i never knew it would be so clear! Ewcm decided to show today so makes sense...i was hoping when the times come i will stop DTD before ovulation time for the shettles method x

Popping over from the March thread as AF arrived today. Next month will be cycle 5 TTC #2. Really want an 2025 baby but not sure it’s going to happen for us

Flashing smiley today, it’s funny how regular my cycle is 😂 Always the morning of CD11 I get a flashing smiley, 4 cycles in a row now ☺️ This is the first cycle without caffein, concieve plus + fertility lube, eating chia pudding with cinnamon everyday + beetroot juice after ovulation. If I’m not getting pregnant this time 😆 Anyone else around ovulation?

@BerrieSweetwhats the chia pudding for? And when are you meant to take it? Really hope you get pregnant ive heard wonderful things about conceive plus gel!

Im gna go shopping today and start seed cycling to prep
also I love my caffeine but i guess im gna go caffeine free if that helps! ahhh too much to do to prep. Im ovulating today (got my peak yday) on CD15 and i felt a pain on my right side but am not trying this month or next

Hi! Moving over to here from a march group. Will be our 2nd month of trying for number 2, our little girl is 2. We weren’t sure but you never know how long it could take so thought let’s start 😊 I’m 3 years older and 3 stone heavier then last time around so not anticipating to fall back pregnant as quick as I did (month 2!) last time.

taking steps to get healthier along the way. First day of AF today

The chiapudding is for omega-3 and I add cinnamon to regulate my bloodsugar hehe, so I could just take supplements for that but they're so expensive so I do that instead, it's yummy so I don't mind. I do take concieve plus fertility support tho!

I do love caffeine as well, It's so sad to have to cut back on it haha 😂So nice that you know your cycle so well before trying! 😊

@BerrieSweet I am with you! CD 13 today. According to my test I should be ovulating soon (I think, I am not good at reading these lol). Husband is away from tomorrow morning. I hope we can catch the ovulation if we try today.
Good luck! 🍀

iiieh exciting, yes It looks like it’s close, great that you’re gonna BD today!😍 Fingers crossed for us 🤞🏼

Fingers crossed for you this month!!!! I’m CD 7 and first day of OPK for me. Nothing yet! I’m usually ovulation on day 12/13 but never confirmed with OPK before. So you’re a little ahead of me! What day do you typically ovulate?

Hi ladies, joining this thread from March! Cycles have been pretty irregular since my ectopic, been getting me down as so hard to track. Have been LH testing but we've decided to DTD every other day to cover.
Think I had a peak yesterday🤞

Can I ask with a peak is it usual for it to drop back down the next day or typically should it remain high for a day or so? My level was 0.82 yday which premom puts as a peak and today it is 0.5 which they say is low. Tested at same time of day x

Hello ladies! First time on here but excited to be part of it all so couldn’t resist joining. TTC second baby this month so hopping along for the ride ❤️

iiiehh you too <3 Good that your OPK dosen't show anything yet so the egg is still maturing 👏I usually ovulate between CD12-14, so similar to you! I always get that flashing smiley CD11 but then peak varies hehe, feeling hopeful for us!

Hi everyone.
it’s our first month trying after losing our 1st baby in the second trimester last year. So we know it might take a while to get pregnant but decided it was time to try again. I think I’m 1DPO - trying not to think about it constantly! X

You might have missed the peak if only tested one a day ☺️

Sorry to hear of your loss @PeaSar93 . It’s so unpredictable, hopefully it’s straightforward for you 🤞🏻

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I had a missed miscarriage at 14 weeks and only a few months later, I was pregnant again. Everything went well and he is now 13 yrs old. Sending you hugs and baby dust 💗

It's possible you missed the pick or perhaps you had a faulty test 🤔 However, you have been DTD every other day, so you definitely haven't missed your chance 🙂🤞

Ah that’s so reassuring thank you. Trying to just take the approach of it’ll happen when it happens but easier said than done 😂x

Anybody got pregnant with a flu before?
I am just around ovulation and woke up with terrible pains and aches all over my body, headache and sore throat (No fever) I have been feeling under the weather for the last couple of days and so did my husband but this morning it's worse.

Now I am afraid my body won't have the strength to concieve 😪 ( we already dtd yesterday and the day begore but they say if the body is busy dealing with virus it won't prioritise conception)

@MayaBsorry to hear you're feeling under the weather 😔 I hope you start to feel better soon! Never personally conceived with flu but I've had a couple of friends who have conceived accidentally whilst on the pill and were talking antibiotics, so they were fighting infection and still successful, always a chance ❤️

No I lied. I also have fever now.

Everyone's cycles are different - mine stay high for about 3 days after my peak but my friend's peak literally for one afternoon then drop way back down. My peaks are always over 1.0 but my friend's peaks are always around 0.7. Especially after a miscarriage, it's so hard to get to know your new normal! I've been testing twice (or even 3 times 😳 a day since my miscarriage to try and understand what is going on).

I have finally peaked. My mc was 5 weeks ago so I'm hoping this isn't going to become my new normal cycle. We've only been DTD every 3 days so hopefully we managed to catch it. Going to DTD every night for the next 3 nights because that's what we did last time we conceived.

Hello, I feel so silly for writing this post. My husband and I trying to conceive for the first time this month and felt alll the symptoms and then AF came early. I feel disheartened (I promised myself I wouldn’t as only the first month!) any advice on how to push negative thoughts from my head regarding this?

@MayaBive gotten pregnant being sick, i very nearly rejected my husbands advances the night DS was conceived - had a terrible migraine coming but we missed each other as i had been at my parents to stay..he said he could cure my headache as a joke but we had a chemical the month before and hadnt been intimate since so i thought screw it- next day i woke up with the worst flu like symptoms for a week! i had to test myself for covid thinking i had it (turns out it was just the flu) never did imagined i would test positive for pregnancy instead!

@Thomsonetthompsonis wont hopefully its just your levels have to go to zero before your first cycle can start back up again, sounds like you are dtd reguarly enough so i really hope you catch this month 🌈
