3dpo - anyone else?

[Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate]

Hi all 👋🏻

I'm currently 3dpo.. wondering if anyone else is roughly the same and doing the 2ww?! I haaaaate waiting. It feels like a punishment 🤣 just hoping for someone to go through this with!

Well, didn't need the extra tests! Just started bleeding 😞

Oh @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate im so sorry 😢 it’s not unheard of for people to spot in the early weeks, got everything crossed for you Xx

It was quite a bit, and bright red so I'll count thus as day 1 of my next cycle. At least on the plus side we both still work, even if it hasn't stuck this time!

It’s rubbish but that’s the best way to look at it. Like you say all the parts are working so I’m sure you’ll get a sticky one soon! X

Oh @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate I'm so sorry to hear that, sending you big hugs ❤️

That's such a good point, it's really positive that you know you were able to get a bfp, will keep my fingers crossed for the next cycle ❤️❤️ xx

Thanks you two 😘 it obviously wasn't meant to be yet! I'm sure my time will come xx

Omg @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolatei hope you are okay? Those lines seemed so clear as well, hoping this gives you a fertility boost for the next cycle xx

It’s so encouraging when you see ladies get bfp after so much anticipation. I’m happy for all of you getting your bfp, although @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolatedon’t be discouraged, every cycle is new chance and who knows why this delay is for the best. After all, do you really want your baby to be capricorn/aquarius? 😂
I’ll stick with “my symptoms are from pms” till I see bfp, could be this month, next, or whenever. Until then I’m just gona take a good self care, since I’m a nail tech I can keep my mind busy, wait for couple more days and then start testing madness 😇
Last few cycles I was kinda dissapointed that I didn’t get preggo, but then I remembered we were trying to avoid. I got my will this Easter while holding random 10mtts old boy at the church gathering and my uterus jumped and since then I’m on a mission. Don’t give up, just take good care of yourself and update us next cycle

Hope you’re doing okay this morning @Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate X

Thabk you @peanutForever@MsFr@CrazyKJ! It is what it is, I cant change it so as much as it's gutting im not going to dwell on it! We move to the next cycle, and hopefully catch and stick soon 🙂

I've left the bigger group now as it was very overwhelming!

How are you all? X

thats a great attitude to have! Really wishing for baby dust on your next cycle

im feeling really deflated tbh we DTD 15/17 and i got my peak last night..so assume ovulation today or tomo..we was planning on BD yday and today to maximise our chances- DH was setting the mood and everything but yday DH got a really bad football related groin related yday morning (just our luck) and weve been advised no BD until hes better. I know we have a chance but i feel like its really limited us 😢

@peanutForever I actually read somewhere that the chances of conception are higher 2-3 days before ovulation than on the actual day, so your timing might be perfect! Fingers crossed for you and hope your DH recovers quickly! X

Not too bad today, feeling a bit more positive now AF has cleared off. Decided to start taking Vit C alongside my other supplements as heard it can help with luteal phase. Figured if nothing else it might help with the constant stream of nursery bugs 😂 X

@CrazyKJvit c has been a game changer in terms of immunity, defo recommend for you and any kiddos - i give to DS and up the dose whenever he seems to be under the weather and it almost cures him overnight

Yes, we only BD Saturday and Sunday, with my peak being Sunday so ovulation Monday/Tuesday.. and it obviously caught, so you could have done enough 🤞🏻

I've just been taking folic acid but might get back on the multivitamin that contains enough folic acid!

Blahgghhhh.. I had the red blood yesterday when I was getting in the shower. Nothing on my tampons when i changed last night before bed, this morning, or just now. Like, JUST START PROPERLY! Rant over 🙃

@peanutForever ah that’s good to hear, thanks 😊

@Chocolateeggsarebetterthannormalchocolate how frustrating for you 😩 hopefully if AF is coming she hurry’s up so you can move on to the next cycle 🤞

Happy weekend! How’s everyone doing? X

5dpo body playing impossible tricks on me- just 5 days to go!

Hi! AF has just left, so will be aiming for every other day this cycle starting tonight.. haven't told DH yet 🤣 will be back doing the OPKs too as I think that helped up last month with knowing when ovulation actually was. The apps said much earlier and going off CM signs I would have presumed earlier than it was. Im only using the Premom app too now, got rid of the others. What will be will be!

How are you?

ah glad you’re okay 😊 my apps all said I should ovulate like a week before i actually do as well. Can’t say knowing when I ovulate has helped so far but can’t hurt so will continue with the opks. Really struggling to reset my brain this month as I’m finding myself worrying about ovulating too late again already 🙈
Like you say what will be will be, need to get my head back in the game X

Ah we will get there! I thought that last month about not having long enough afterwards, so maybe that's why it didn't stick, but I'll see how I get on this month.

Are you doing anything nice this weekend? X

Yeah you’re right, we will get there eventually 😊 We’ve got a couple of friends expecting at the minute so all the talk is babies, baby showers and general pregnancy. As genuinely happy as I am for them both it just really stings right now. We’ve not got much on this weekend, going to our friends on Monday for lunch but otherwise just going to try and get some jobs around the house done.
How about you? X

I'm the same, it's hard isn't it. People at work and in the family are pregnant so it seems to be everywhere!

Lunch at friends sounds nice. We are quite busy, parties, eating out, and then I'm off all week so going to try and get jobs done. I've managed to tidy all his toys downstairs today and chuck all the maccies toys and other random crap from magazines that were getting on my nerves! So feeling good tonight! Haha xx

Ooh nice, sounds like a lovely few days 😊 I love a good clear out, there’s something so satisfying about it lol. our front garden is suddenly resembling a jungle, so if the rain stays away tomorrow either Ive got to do something about that or convince hubby that he wants to (unlikely!) 😂
