@jelliebean9 lines look great ❤️ I know it's difficult but step away from the tests! You'll drive yourself demented.

I got an empty smiley this morning and the line was lighter than yesterday, so I think I ovulated yesterday. So counting today as 1dpo. Buckled in for another tww 🙃 Going to do same as last month & try not to test before 12/13dpo. We're heading to my folks the day my period is due for a family event & staying a few days. Hoping there's enough going on to distract myself!

@jelliebean9your lines look great! I can’t remember if you’ve missed your period yet? If you have (and it were me but obv completely up to you!) I’d try to stop testing! IMO it just leads to madness and trying to compare lines. As others say, you’re pregnant right now so congrats!! Can you book a private early scan at 7 weeks?

in other news - has anyone used Proov? I’m going to try it this cycle but think I’ve already messed up…I think I’m meant to have recorded a baseline result just after my period which I didn’t???

Not quite yet, I’m due Wednesday! I’m gonna stop testing Thursday when I’ll use a digital and tell my husband. Thank you for your kind words 🩷🙏

You guys… I’m letting myself get too excited about this when it can still so easily end in sadness like last cycle. I’m trying to hold faith in that last month I never got over the threshold sensitivity past a FRER before the chemical happened. These being 10miu and getting stronger is way more promising. I’m still terrified though. Is that normal after losses?

Congrats, so so so happy for you! 🥹💕

FlyHighSky72 · 01/06/2025 13:04

Thanks @Bumblebee1984that’s lovely to hear! Fingers crossed for similar here - my partner wants two so if it takes too long that might not happen!!

@jelliebean9thats a good idea - congrats again!

Just at a family birthday party and my partners cousin had just announced her pregnancy 😌 why is this so hard and triggering x

Oh man, I know this feeling! It’s so tough to constantly be happy for everyone else when you wish that for yourself so much. Take it easy on yourself and hope you can enjoy the party and then maybe a little pamper evening tonight or something just to focus on you ❤️x

ForGiddyDreamer · 01/06/2025 14:51

@ChaE05 sending you a big hug ❤️ it's so difficult to feel joy for others when you're waiting for your turn. Last week the work experience student in my place told us she's expecting and due in November. I felt like bursting into tears as I should have had a one month old by that time. I hope you get through the party OK x

becksxx · 01/06/2025 15:10

Hi all & congrats to all those with positive tests 🥰 I just wondered what vitamins everyone is taking? And what vitamins your partners are taking to? Thanks in advance x

FlyHighSky72 · 01/06/2025 15:20

@becksxxI just started ovum (halfway through this cycle) and was on Proceive max until then - I also take coQ10. Partner not currently on anything but if we don’t catch this cycle (cycle 2 of ttc I might ask him to take coQ10)

@Iris2024 I'm similar to you! 4DPO today. We also didn't BD enough as we were both under the weather with a virus - DTD peak day and day before peak, not as much as we'd have liked!

I honestly think that’s fine! I read someone knowledgeable saying it doesnt really increase your odds to have more sex across those fertile days, as long as you do have sex in the window (between 3 days before ovulation and ovulation day I think). I can’t remember the rationale but I remind myself that when feeling the same! I’m also 4dpo, feels a long time to go into testing

Hi, hope its okay to join, I'm only on CD 7 at the moment

this is why I’d honestly people rather texted these things so you can have your reaction on your own

PurpleSpottedLeopard · 01/06/2025 18:17

@ChaE05 I’m so sorry that happened to you. It feels like you’ve been punched and then you’ve got to immediately force a smile. It’s ok to feel sad for you even if you’re happy for them.

Sometimes I just need to hear this ☺️ Thank you ❤️ we only done twice in the window too. Also 4DPO (I think) so that’s the 3 of us.

Iris2024 · 01/06/2025 18:24

@ChaE05 Hun, honestly, I totally get this 😩 you want to be happy but the voice in your head also says, ahhhhhh come onnnnnn F off! 🫣🤣🤣

Hiiiii @KSmith94 and @megan345 welcome 🤍

PearOpal · 01/06/2025 18:40

Checking in for June - CD6 here so just getting started here. Congrats to all the BFPs on the thread already. Sending baby dust to all!

ChaE05 · 01/06/2025 18:51

@becksxxI'm taking coq10. Pregnacare, vit d, omega 3. I'm also taking vit c and b6 alongside a b complex...these have been to help my luteal phase, which they have! My partner is taking the pregnacare Conception for men and vit d and omega 3.x

hollyhocks2 · 01/06/2025 18:57

I'm checking in too, I haven't posted since CD1, now CD 14, 1dpo according to OPKs. I have been trying to keep up reading posts! Big congrats to @jelliebean9 and @SHD614012 it's wonderful, but of course completely understand the nerves. Mega stressful time but I hope you can enjoy some optimism amongst it all.

My big intentions this luteal phase are around nutritious food, early nights, and staying well hydrated. I'll also make a GP appt to ask about blood tests (as have had 2 mc) and if they aren't willing I'll look into getting them done myself.

@LookForTheLiighti am waiting for AF, due anyday now lol

@becksxx Me and my DH are both on naitre conception vitamins, omega 3 & ubiquinol (coq10) and weve both been on them since march, this was cycle 1 ttcno.2 and we didnt manage to dtd day before of peak, or the day, or the day after so basically managed once in the fertile window if i ovulated at the 48hr after peak mark...waiitng for AF due in 2 days x

Ec2808 · 01/06/2025 19:32

What CD are you on? I’m on CD26 and approx 11dpo I think. Due on on Wednesday. Hope she’s nice and prompt if she’s coming 😂

this was me yesterday.

Finally seem to be getting it tonight (CD16) but I wanted it sooner so I could have more time for luteal phase (which I worry is too short - only 10/11 days usually)

Ec2808 · 01/06/2025 20:17

@bigbird1234really? Hope i get mine tomorrow at least… average cycle length is 27 days.. but my luteal phase is usually 12 days. Wanted mine sooner soo the wait wouldn’t be soo long 😩
