Hi everyone I’m joining in after having a few of months off - ttc is exhausting! Been tracking BBT and using OPK and it’s looking like I will ovulate over the second May bank holiday. I have my first acupuncture session in a few days which I’m really looking forward to

Hello all! I’m currently 2 DPO, Have had a rocky time over the last year with a missed miscarriage and failed medical management x2! Feeling hopeful and hope it’s good news for all of us soon!

I’ve been looking at acupuncture, let us know how it goes!

@Flowersflowers121 is ovulation coming up for you soon? I think I’ll ovulate sometime next week!

PurpleOrchids12345 · 04/05/2025 18:06

@Flowersflowers121 yes exiting to be 3dpo. I won’t be able to resist and will probably start resting 7/8dpo! Where about are you in your cycle?

@daisy2025 I’ve heard really positive things about acupuncture. Please let us know how it goes!

Flowersflowers121 · 04/05/2025 21:02

@BGxxx@PurpleOrchids12345yesss, tracker is saying ovulation is due around 11th, so about a week to go! I started LH testing yesterday though and new BBT thermometer arrived today as my other one decided to constantly keep non-stop for about an hour and then die at 5:30am yesterday hahahaha

PurpleOrchids12345 · 04/05/2025 22:30

@Flowersflowers121 how exciting! I recently purschased a BBT thermometer as well and am using the pre mom app- the reassuring to see the lines move in the right directions!

Ec2808 · 05/05/2025 14:59

Hi! 1-2dpo here Ttc for baby #3 after a chemical pregnancy in march. Sending babydust to all. AF is due on the 17th anybody else?

Flowersflowers121 · 05/05/2025 16:38

@PurpleOrchids12345yesss, I'm using that app too! Trying to get my head around it all hahaha

@Ec2808eeek, how exciting!! Do you find it hard not to symptoms spot etc? Haha I'm awful for it

Ec2808 · 05/05/2025 18:36

@Flowersflowers121 already searching google for right and left side twinges and lower back pain 🤣🤣 i’m very impatient 🤣🤣🤣 cant wait for for 10-14dpo 🤣

FlyHighSky72 · 05/05/2025 18:50

I’m feeling really negative about this cycle (my first one) - I’ve been really healthy for 2-3 months but feel like my past of drinking heavily might have ruined all of my eggs and it might never happen! ConfusedSad

Ec2808 · 05/05/2025 18:55

@FlyHighSky72 i feeling you it’s hard to stay positive but sending you lots of luck and baby dust! ✨✨

PurpleOrchids12345 · 05/05/2025 19:50

@Flowersflowers121 the app is very helpful! I’m keeping track of my BBT too and didn’t think it would be possible to test even more than I used too! (Am probably addicted to peeing on sticks!)

@Ec2808 im just 2 days ahead of you! 4dpo now- am pretty sure I won’t be able to wait till 10 dpo!

Ec2808 · 05/05/2025 19:52

@PurpleOrchids12345omg i feel the same i’m certain i won’t be able to wait either also addicted to peeing on sticks 🤣🤣🤣

PurpleOrchids12345 · 07/05/2025 21:11

@Ec2808 have managed to keep myself busy and not test yet! How are you doing?

@FlyHighSky72 pls don’t worry about past drinking- sounds like you are doing everything you can now. Are you tracking with opks?

FlyHighSky72 · 07/05/2025 21:20

Thanks @PurpleOrchids12345I hope so! Yeah I did - got my peak and tracked for 3 days afterwards - I’ve now run out of OPKs so will order some more if I don’t catch this cycle. I’m 2 dpo today

Ec2808 · 07/05/2025 21:34

@PurpleOrchids12345yes how about you lovely any symptoms ? My cm just got really bizarre and really bloated and crampy 😩😩

PurpleOrchids12345 · 08/05/2025 08:23

@FlyHighSky72 2dpo! How exciting! When will you start testing? For the first time I’m continuing to test after ovulation just to ensure I don’t have a bizarre second peak which I’ve read can happen.

@Ec2808 what’s happening with your cm? I (weirdly) can get ewcm before my periods so it’s all so confusing!

Ec2808 · 08/05/2025 08:26

@PurpleOrchids12345 it has been very creamy since 1DPO but last night I checked and I got little bits of EWCM but a little bit thicker than usual sorry bout this TMI 😂this morning it's back to creamy but with a pale yellow tinge...soo bizarre

PurpleOrchids12345 · 08/05/2025 08:28

@Ec2808 what are your opks and bbt doing?

Ec2808 · 08/05/2025 08:30

@PurpleOrchids12345 bbt was 36.49 this morning and here’s my opk’s ignore second last one took it in bad lighting so uploaded last one correctly 🥰

@PurpleOrchids12345ill start testing at 10 dpo as I have a short luteal phase (or at least that’s what’s being predicted by the apps this month - first month ttc and tracking!)

Flowersflowers121 · 08/05/2025 13:18

Hiiii everyone! Eek so exciting where everyone's at. I've got my fingers crossed for you all - I've not ovulated yet as far as I can tell so a little behind! Haha

Chart looking good!!@Ec2808

@FlyHighSky72 good luck testing on 10dpo!! Keep us posted haha

@PurpleOrchids12345love when we all start talking cm hahahah I've had ewcm today so wondering if peak is near!!!

@BGxxxany luck with ovulation? Did you manage to catch a peak?
