AF came this morning. I'm glad I didn't test now and I just waited. I'm not feeling down like I felt last month. I had some quite strong cramps on Friday and Saturday which is unusual for me before AF. I think things are still settling down after my MMC.

MM013 · 21/04/2025 08:05

@SureLooksorry to hear AF has arrived. But really glad you’re not feeling down, and things are settling down after your MMC.

@Butterflygirl23waiting till Wednesday sounds like a plan!

do any of you track your BBT ?

Aww I’m so sorry to hear AF arrived but glad you are feeling ok about it. I don’t think il be far behind you to be honest. I’ve got some dull cramps but they really feel like AF pains do not sure

SureLook · 21/04/2025 08:18

Thanks @MM013 & @Butterflygirl23 fingers crossed for everyone!

Morning ladies & happy Easter 🐣 can I join please? I’m cycle 4 TTC #1, just turned 36 & am turning into a bit of a negative Nancy. Need some moral support!! 10dpo today, zero symptoms at all so suspect I am out this month. Booked in a GP appointment in May to go have some blood tests again and a S.A. for my DP. Probably a bit soon but I know my AMH is low so I don’t have buckets of time to wait trying if there is a problem. I have not really surrendered to this process and am not enjoying it. Congrats to those who have got an Easter BFP x

Butterflygirl23 · 21/04/2025 09:58

@Thisisouryear2025happy Easter to you too! Hope you had a lovely weekend
have you tested at all yet or are you waiting for AF? I think there is already a may support group going on here if some of us don’t conceive this month. Hopefully we see some more positives ❤️

mummm2 · 21/04/2025 10:01

Sorry to hear AF come @SureLook

Good luck to you all testing soon!

My OPKs have finally started rising last night CD18 although still not at peak this morning. Also ran out of clear blues yesterday so never did see that static smiley!

We DTD CD 15 & 16 and don’t think we will again for next couple of days as my youngest is poorly and we’re so shattered! Think I’m gunna count us out this month x

Thisisouryear2025 · 21/04/2025 10:06

@Butterflygirl23thank you and you! I haven’t tested at all, I never really do as a BFN upsets me lol. I have one FRER that’s going to expire next week so I might use that tomorrow or Wednesday just to use it. Tbh I feel way too normal to be pregnant this cycle & all I’ve had if I really think about it is the odd light pms cramp I would normally get at this time. If AF comes Thursday or Friday then il head over to May thread. How many cycles are you on now? X

Butterflygirl23 · 21/04/2025 10:20

@Thisisouryear2025i know it’s so hard not to test. I tested a few days ago but I’m not 100% sure when I ovulated I think I missed my peak early hours one day but can’t 100% say! If going off that am 11dpo had negatives 8&9! I had a miscarriage at 11 weeks in March so I’ve only had one AF and I’m on CD30. I’m so tempted to pick up a CB whilst I’m out lol what about you?

Butterflygirl23 · 21/04/2025 10:21

End of Feb sorry * lost track of month

Thisisouryear2025 · 21/04/2025 10:23

@Butterflygirl23oh you have plenty of time for a bfp then! I am 10dpo today, so still early but I just feel too normal for a bfp! lol! I have tests at home so probs will use up the frer at 12dpo. Sorry about your loss that’s horrible. I had a chemical last August before we were trying, started trying in Jan this year. How many cycles did it take for you to fall last time? X

Butterflygirl23 · 21/04/2025 10:28

Aww sorry to hear about your chemical! I basically fell pregnant 3 cycles after being off the depo (only had 2 injections) after I had my little girl but we decided to try again when our daughter turned 1. Caught pregnant in October but lost that pregnancy too then fell pregnant within 3 weeks and lost that one too so it’s been hard but I do believe we will get our rainbow baby one day!
with my pregnancy with my daughter took me 7 cycles but I wasn’t tracking ovulation just went off EWCM x

Butterflygirl23 · 21/04/2025 10:29

And loads of women have said on here they didn’t have any symptoms leading up their BFP. But i definitely do lol

I do with natural cycles and my oura

Thisisouryear2025 · 21/04/2025 10:35

@Butterflygirl23oh wow you have had lots of losses that must be so tough! So sorry! Yeah you will get your rainbow baby for sure. I believe we will get ours too I just get so down each month! 7 cycles does give me hope as it’s well within normal ranges and so I know I shouldn’t get too disheartened at cycle 4! I go by ewcm too I get about 5 days of it and I normally get ovulation pain on one side on the last day of it and then a slight rise in bbt the next day. Think I’m going to try having less sex next cycle

Butterflygirl23 · 21/04/2025 10:29

Yeah I see that too but I’m like that’s unlikely to be me haha

Butterflygirl23 · 21/04/2025 10:38

I feel like I can’t be too sad because our little girl is the best thing to ever happen to us she’s a ray of sunshine! I know if I didn’t have her I’d be ever so broken, I am so sad still but it helps heal my heart having her
yeah don’t get yourself down it’ll happen for sure ❤️
yeah I don’t check my BBT, i usually get EWCM too for a few days then the day of ovulation it goes and I get my pain on either side too x

Kateti · 21/04/2025 10:39

@Butterflygirl23 that must be tough to have them losses, sorry to hear that. Hoping for a BFP and a sticky pregnancy for you soon 🤞🏻
I’m DPO 11 today and think I’ll just wait to see if AF arrives now as I just have a feeling this is not my month. Should be due next weds or Thursday so not long to wait. Seem to be similar in cycles to a couple of you

Thisisouryear2025 · 21/04/2025 10:41

@Butterflygirl23thats so lovely you have her! That’s kinda how I am seeing it now, we would love multiple children but if we only get one then we will be so eternally grateful and it would still complete us. I just hope we get there soon enough! Thank you and likewise for you! I have got a GP appointment booked in for May so that I can be referred for blood tests at the 6 month mark and DP can have a semen analysis done. I’m 36 now and he’s 42 so they recommend not leaving it past 6 months at our ages. I really hope we don’t need the tests though and a bfp comes before x

Thisisouryear2025 · 21/04/2025 10:42

@KatetiAF is due for me Thursday too. I also think I’m out but I don’t know why

KSmith94 · 21/04/2025 10:46

I'm due today but 12dpo, I have a shorter luteal phase than most I think, holding out til Wednesday to test if Aunt Flo hasn't arrived by then 🤞🏻 xx

I feel the same way! I had a mmc before I had her and it was awful, but I didn’t feel so bad having the ectopic because I know I’ve got her

rachael2308 · 21/04/2025 12:04

I’m 6DPO today and have some spotting.
last month was my first normal period since my implant was removed and I had spotting from a week prior so I’m hoping that’s not the case this time!

curliegirlie · 21/04/2025 12:38

I'm 7 or 8 DPO of what seems to be a freak cycle - the second after my MC in early March (last cycle was a reasonably sensible 29 days): I got dark OPKs on CD6 and BBT seems to be confirming I ovulated around CD 7 or 8. I normally ovulate around CD16! Maybe this is the joys of peri....

I hate the sense of anticipation I have at the moment! I so desperately want to be back where I was, but I took 40 cycles to get the BFP I had in Feb, so it's so silly I'm practically counting down to the next testing day...sigh....

hollyhocks2 · 21/04/2025 13:40

Goodness @curliegirlie 40 cycles and then a MC Flowers that's brutal. I understand being desperate to be pg again asap, I felt the same after mine. And I did fall again quickly, but lost that too. I have a fairly irrational sense that I'm going to get a positive test result this cycle but I will not be counting any chickens whatsoever. I've been burned!
