May 2025 TTC Support Thread #2!

[Muddysocks1]

As suggested, because so many of us on the other thread, shall we have a little roll call?

@SureLook really hope so really don't feel well today
@Kayleaaa yes but not as much as on may 6&7 which is why I'm starting to think I messed up..feel sick to my stomach now honestly 😔
didn't know it was possible to ovulate so long after LH peak...😫

@Kayleaaa but then my cm has been really bizarr this whole cycle I feel...I had ewcm on CD 14, CD 17&18 was creamy , CD19 was ewcm & watery, CD 20 was creamy & then sticky, CD 22 was creamy, CD 23 was ewcm, and since Monday a mixture of creamy and ewcm...😫

@Ec2808 try not to stress. There's so much you can't control x

I’ve read some articles saying bbt can take longer to rise than just 1dpo! So you could of ovulated cycle day 17/18 and it’s just taken a little longer to rise

Well AF arrived last night. At least I got to my blood tests today as needed new cycle…

@BGxxx really hope soo because if I really only ovulated 4 days after my peak my chances are not high at all 😭

Yes unfortunately it really varies woman to woman, how soon you ovulate after LH surge/peak, and then how long until your BBT rises. I think this is why often OPKs aren’t recommended by professionals (obv I use them too!) because they can cause confusion or people to mistime sex.
but yeah it could be your temp just rose slowly! And sperm can live for 5ish days, so not all hope lost!
have you got a photo of your temps before ovulation too? Like were your temps trending up after LH peak even if not over the cover line?

Just nipping on quickly to say I'm sorry @disneybride ❤️

@Disneybride so sorry 😞sending hugs!! xxx

@Muddysocks1thank you soo much for looking here’s my full chart…really soo confused today 😢 and as you know i’m not familiar with bbt yet..❤️

Sorry @Disneybride at least you won't be on your period for your holidays now.

Hmmm, yes your other temps are below so does indicate maybe later. Could still be delayed temp shift. It’s so hard when we feel we’ve missed an opportunity in an cycle when we want it so bad, but might not be lost, I know it doesn’t make it any easier ❤️

@Muddysocks1 I know I feel soo sad 😥really tried soo hard to do it right this cycle and just feel like I missed it again 😥

Sending hugs @Ec2808 ❤️

@SureLook thank you ❤

Thank you, I am a bit down today - I’ve never been so much as late in 5 years so I was still hoping being 2 days late, even with the negatives. 😩

Yes there is that! It should be my next fertile window 🙌

Thank you xx

Hugs! I felt the same! First month of BBT for me too xx

@Disneybride really feel broken 😔! Hugs!! xx

My husbands down with the flu so im not feeling to particularly baby dance- imagine he bought himself dry chesty cough syrup- had some last night and now ive got very fertile looking CM! Is that how it works!? Due to enter fertile window in 2 days from my app but so cool

is it bad im willing to hold off anorher month on ttc as i dont wana get the flu haha?

Hi ladies, sorry for all feeling upset, I’m right there with you! Had some blood on wipe earlier and nothing since. Just want full flow now. Don’t know if to count today as CD1?

Sending love to you all, I feel like I’ll never get my second child and feeling really sad tonight!

could it be implantation bleeding?

i just had something similar but not sure if it’s the normal spotting I get pre-period or implantation bleeding.

it was like a lot of milky white dishcharge but slightly pale pink

Im CD26 and 10DPO.

@Iris2024feeling very sad too 😔 cd 27 and really upset tummy 😔😔
