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

@ChaE05I’m 40. Conveived DC 2 at 37 gave birth at 38. Now trying for #3

just had flashing smiley face on OPK so my prediction of ovulating around Tuesday is probably about right

ChaE05 · 11/05/2025 07:27

AF just arrived 💔 onto the next cycle...x

SureLook · 11/05/2025 07:35

@ThisZippyViewer you're not out till AF arrives 🤞🏻

@ThisHangryTiger & @ChaE05 I'm sorry that AF has arrived. Baby dust for the next cycle ✨️

@ThisHangryTiger and @ChaE05 im so so sorry. I know the heartbreak when AF arrives sending so much love.

I’m 8DPO today and I’ve literally had really sore breasts since ovulation, bloated and gassy. It’s so cruel that hormone and AF coming is the same. We BD last night (just because wanted to not in fertile window) and I had tiny red spots on tissue and told myself it could be implantation and I’ve a period like belly this morning like AF is coming 😩 Why are my boobs so sore every day to give me hope? This sucks!

@ThisHangryTiger@ChaE05soo sorry for you sending lots of hugs!!😔😔 still nothing here but my temperature went up again this morning… soo confused 😭❤️❤️

@ChaE05 Im 41 my love. Got pregnant with my daughter at 34 and had her when I was 35

SureLook · 11/05/2025 08:05

@Iris2024 I know. It's really horrible that early pregnancy and AF symptoms are basically the same. It could be implantation bleeding and some bloating? I had ferocious bloating on my first.

@Ec2808 sorry I don't do BBT so I can't help!

Thank you. We are very lucky so have a wonderful 6 year old, but I would really love another. If it doesn’t happen though, at least we have him!

Finally being referred to fertility (kept getting declined because of BMI), but GP put me on Letrozole anyway, which is about all fetility will do as we have a son. It’s just the tests I want like checking my tube, womb lining etc! I am ovulating so I can’t see what else it could be!

Glad you’ve been referred! What does letrozole do, I’ve seen it mentioned a lot but wasn’t sure what it’s for exactly

@SureLook its horrible isn’t it as you can’t imagine seeing the pink lines and think your imagining things but then there’s hope and possibility as we are trying. I’ve literally been bloated and gassy every day with sore boobs but that could be hormonal. Driving myself mad lol 🤣

SureLook · 11/05/2025 08:24

@Iris2024 I know, it really could go either way. And cause we're trying we're looking out for things!

I’m so glad we are all in this together. It didn’t affect me that much 1st month back trying last month but feel I’ll fall apart this month if negative 😩

Ttcaftertfmr · 11/05/2025 09:37

Good morning ladies!
congratulations to all with a bfp ❤️🥰 and so sorry to those where this month wasn’t the one.
AF showed up last night, so I’m also out this cycle.. on to the next! 🤞🏻🤍 baby dust to all still waiting and fingers crossed May is your month!! Xx

SureLook · 11/05/2025 09:51

@Iris2024 if you do fall apart we'll be here to pick up the pieces. We are strong women. We always pick ourselves up and try again x

@Ttcaftertfmr I'm sorry AF has arrived. Baby dust for next month ✨️

Letrozole is a Medication to make you ovulate. I wasn’t having any periods till they put me on this due to PCOS and now I have a 28 day cycle without having to take anything to induce bleed. I’m on the lowest dose and it’s making me ovulate.

Iris2024 · 11/05/2025 11:15

I can definitely feel my period coming 😩😭😭😭😭 it says I’m due on Friday but I’ve been coming on anytime from tomorrow and I can feel it coming, backache, sore breast, twinges in hip and ache 😣 think I’m out!

SureLook · 11/05/2025 11:54

@Iris2024 let's just wait and see!

Bas27 · 11/05/2025 12:22

I’m one of the last ones I think at 1DPO (possibly). Anyone else after me or around the same time?
Lovely to see people getting bfps.
Sorry to those out this month. It’s so hard - and can be very lonely. This group is saving my sanity!

I’m 3dpo! I really want to not early test this cycle but I’ve not got very good willpower!

@Ec2808 your chart looks good, I don’t think you’re out this cycle! Your tests with the lines could of been evaps, I’ve heard lots of people say the same about easy@home lately. So you’ve definitely still got time for a positive xx

FlyHighSky72 · 11/05/2025 13:11

@Bas27im 6dpo today….the waiting is taking sooooo long!!
