1dpo ... Whose with me?

[Mummysparrow]

Cycle number unknown at this point but first cycle TTC since my surgery in January. I am 1dpo today so who else is 1dpo today?

@Ec2808 ah that’s ok! I use my Apple Watch to track mine and it’s quite easy, I used to use a thermometer and it was more of a pain. But yeah don’t worry about a slow rise and you did get a rise anyway so all good! So what time did you do your LH test? If first thing, you may have actually ovulated Friday evening, it can be as quick as 16 hours after peak and we can’t always guarantee we’ve caught the beginning of our peak. You most likely have ovulated if you have had other signs like EWCM, do you get one sided pain at all?

I generally peak very early in the morning or early hours, and then ovulate that night. Literally without fail, I can pin point to the hour when I can expect to feel my ovulation pain and it always comes 😂😂

I just don’t get why I am now 4 cycles down and nothing to show for it 🫣

@Thisisouryear2025 I think an apple watch would be far easier for me also because I got the cheap easy@home one and seems to not really be working for me causing me to stress out even more than I already do 😂oooh I tested like a serial tester late morning afternoon and evening to be sure to catch my surge hahaha 😂I'm like you normally I can pinpoint it which side etc..but this month I had twinges on both sides and now I'm just lost 😂
Really feel you the wait is hoooooorrible!!!

@Ec2808 that’s a blazing peak, I would say late Saturday / early Sunday ovulation but I doubt you didn’t ovulate with a peak like that and EWCM. Sometimes ovulation could be delayed from stress or sickness but now your CM has changed its most likely happened. You will get more of a rise don’t worry. Yeah get an Apple Watch haha it’s so helpful! Could be twins for you this month then 😂😂

I am trying to tell myself I don’t care and it’s fine if I’m not lol so that I don’t get so disheartened but I know that will still happen 🫣😓

@Thisisouryear2025 I know that's exactly what I thought never had a peak like that 😂and then bbt made me stress AGAIN 😂I believe you but my birthday isn't until August and really hope I get a bfp before then 😂
I've read this could indicate twins but who knows 😂
I get it I try to tell myself the same but drive myself crazy anyhow 😂
soo glad we have this thread soo helpful to wait together 😍

@Ec2808 You most likely will as you have a child already and also just had a chemical in march I think you said, so you are clearly fertile so it’s just a numbers game now. How old will you be in August? I turned 36 in April and I really wanted a BFP by June as means I’d have my baby before I turn 37 but tbh the time it seems to be taking now I reckon il just have to hope and pray I get a BFP before the years out.

yeah same! I am glad too! Keep each other feeling a little less mental haha x

@Thisisouryear2025really hope so turning 33 in august..i’m sure you will get yours too sending loads of baby dust! ✨ and thanks again for being here know that I am too!!

@Ec2808 thank you lovely!! Sending baby dust to you too 🩷💙 and you are also very young and under the dreaded 35 so it will happen soon x

So I’m 2 dpo and so bloated and gassy - feel like the top of my tummy is full of gas which is odd! Obv not a pregnancy symptom as waaaay too early but I now can’t remember what I’m normally like at this time of the month 🤪! Going to log it all in Premom so I can remember next month

@Thisisouryear2025thank you soo much ❤️🤞🏻✨✨
@FlyHighSky72really not sure what dpo i am but at this point symptoms are probably just in my head anyhow 🤣🤣🤣

@Ec2808when did you get your peak? I’m using the Premom app and going by what it says on the dpo front - who knows if it’s accurate as this is my first month using it

@FlyHighSky72Got my peak on cd 15 which was Saturday…so most likely 4dpo too but already had a surge on cd14 with positive toi soo not sure and my temps aren’t really matching up 😭🤦🏻‍♀️

Arg how annoying @Ec2808- when are you trying to hold out until testing until?

@FlyHighSky72 i know it’s driving me even more crazy 🤣🤣 will most likely start on Saturday even though I know i will probably throw the test at the wall how bout you?🥰

Haha @Ec2808what dpo will that be? I’m hanging out until 10 dpo and I’m on 2 dpo today so I’ve got AGES

@FlyHighSky727-8 dpo 🤣🤣🤣 literally impossible but gonna try anyhow 🤣 have zero will power 🤣

Haha @Ec2808you never know - the google tells me implantation can happen at 6 dpo! Hoping that’s me as I’m only predicted a 10 day luteal phase!!

Oh I get this too! Now I’ve stopped symptom spotting or logging as I found that I’ve had symptoms and no symptoms on all non pregnant cycles and all symptoms I’ve felt have been different each month 🫣

@FlyHighSky72Fingers crossed✨ mine is normally a bit longer so more likely to have a faint line at 10-11 dpo ✨

4dpo today ladies. We can do this. Trying to ignore symptoms as I don't want to get my hopes up.
I normally take antihistamines for hayfever and currently questioning whether to continue taking them or not.
@Ec2808 I have heard that it up a few times a night it can affect your temperature so it could be to do with that. I don't measure bbt as it is too much of an effort for me and I can guarantee I won't always remember to do the temperature before getting out of bed 🤣🤣

@Mummysparrow 5 or 6 DPO here not sure but extremely bloated and crampy since last night also had very bizarre CM last night 😂
I'm taking antihistamines for my allergies because the pollen this year is bad 😂Does this affect anything? I understand I did bbt this cycle but deff not for me either causing me to stress more than anything though my temp did go up this morning to 36.49 🤗
What are your symptoms maybe we can compare our craziness 😂

@Ec2808 antihistamines are one of those things confuse me as a Google says they are safe for pregnancy but also says consult your doctor. I am also suffering with hayfever as well so if I have to go the summer without antihistamines it's gonna be a long summer.
I have an odd stomach so a bit of indigestion and just not feeling right. Also got a headache and some cramps. Feels too early to be having symptoms 🤣🤣

@Mummysparrow you never know in the tww 😂my stomach has been off also and felt very cold this morning before I got up which is weird because my temp went up soo confusing all of this right? oooh I may have to ask then because I suffe if I don't take the hayfever medication 😂like you say it's gonna be a long summer😂

@Mummysparrowi think with antihistamines it’s just that they dry up CM - not bad for conception per se but obv with no CM it’d be harder to conceive. Hence why they’re safe for pregnancy. Depending on how bad you get hayfever I’d probs just use a fertility safe lube and keep taking the anti shot amines

@Ec2808 this is why I don't think I'm gonna bother with BBT. I'm up and down too much during the night with my toddler. I was also absolutely freezing during my last pregnancy, which ended in an MMC. I googled it and apparently it's cause your temperature rises and your body tries to cool you down and sometimes it does too good of a job!

@SureLook I understand I'm just going to finish this cycle and then maybe get an apple watch which will track it for me 😂oh soo sorry to hear that! 😞never heard of that with my miscarriage I didn't have this neither with my last pregnancy for my daughter...just seems very early to be experiencing anything..
