Is anyone else BBT charting and notice your temps are higher because of the heat? I’m only CD9 and my temps are way above my usual coverline, must be because it’s hot! Hope it doesn’t make my chart too hard to read around ovulation

@peanutForeverhonestly you'll be fine, you dtd lastnight so you are well covered! And you'll do it again tonight. Even if you got your peak during the day, you ovulate like 12-24 hours after don't you? So you'll be absolutely fine 😍

@MyPearlBeesorry lovely, really not sure about cysts. Are you able to speak to your doctor about it? Or have a little Google. When was your partners semen last tested? Ugh it's never simple is it. Some people just have to look at their partner and they are pregnant. Who knew it would be this hard x

started spotting this morning on CD 33 about time...what a long cycle! HORRIBLE!😫

@ChaE05 hope so its our anniversary tomorrrow so i was thinking if could let DH rest today and then do it tomorrow without any obligations but scared we wont have enough time, hoping he just tries it on tonight tbh..i guess because hes scheduled for shoulder surgery in three weeks im trying to make the most of this cycle

@Muddysocks1premom is still showing OV as today is that becsuse ovulation is prompted by the surge? It has rapidly gone up but not hit peak if that makes sense

@Muddysocks1it's awful isn't it. The pregnancy announcements too at the moment at just alot. It's so triggering. 3 friends of mine all fell pregnant with their second child first time. (our first all similar age..we worked together) honestly I'm sending so much baby dust to you. I really hope it happens soon. Positive thoughts for us xx

@Ec2808ughhh the wait! I feel this. Onto a new positive cycle for you 🙏

@ChaE05 oh I know was convinced I was pregnant because never had a cycle this long 😂Thank you let's hope it's a positive one ❤

Morning ladies, I hope you don't mind me joining you. I have just started the TWW. How do you all keep your mind busy to stop over analysing everything

hey!! i really struggle with the tww as its all i can think about🤣xxx

@megan345
I know it's so hard to keep my mind off everything as I keep symptom spotting and driving myself crazy.

Tbh I don’t mind it too much as I just treat it as Schrödinger's pregnancy 😅 it’s that nice time when anything is possible and you haven’t had a BFN next lol. I struggle with the two weeks before OV way more. That’s boring and I worry when or if OV will even happen. Feel a bit more relief in TWW.

I really struggle with the TWW too 🤣 currently 6dpo trying to hold off till Sunday/Monday. Did I take a test yesterday despite knowing it was too early? Of course I did 🤣

This may be a silly question but I have a smear booked Monday. It's been booked for 3 months after my loss if I get a POS Sunday or Monday should I cancel the smear 🤔

@EmPeEf
That's a very good way of looking at it, I may have to give that a try. Although I also struggle with the TW's before as well waiting for OV, I think I need to find myself a new hobby lol

new to this thread but not new to TTC…am I going mad or is there a line here? I’ve chucked it away after 5 mins to avoid an evap line scare but now regretting not being able to stare at it…

@ChaE05 also feeling really down at the moment. I’ve had hope but feel I haven’t now. I know the bigger and logical picture is we’ve only been trying 8 cycles, 6 being last year but I still feel so scared and worried it won’t happen. We conceived our daughter first cycle so this is all new. Sending you love ❤️

@peanutForever id say you will get it today/tonight but if you BD yesterday and do again tonight you’ve got it covered 🤞🏽

It’s so hard - a close friend is pregnant and another I expect will be pregnant again soon. Happy for them but also sad for me. We’ll get there - all the fingers crossed to you too 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Hmm I’m not sure how Premom actually suggests it, how much it’s based on previous cycles or your LH strips that cycle. Mine says my fertile window starts tomorrow but I don’t think it’ll start until Sunday based on my normal cycle length so it’s confusing!

@RHP36 I would honestly chuck that and retest in 2 days with another brand. I had the worst evap line with that exact test last week. This was mine.

@ForGiddyDreamer Urgh thanks. Clear blue are the worst!!

Hope everyone keeping okay In the heat!
Is anyone else trying to eat as clean as poss for those naughty little eggs of ours? I'm trying my best mostly eating lots of whole foods, really upping my protein. I've cut down on processed foods ALOT. But also this weather makes me want a cheeky ice cream or the odd little wine. It's mentally challenging enough this whole ttc journey that I don't want to cut out all enjoyment. I really need to look into household toxins too. I've made a few swaps xx

I have been eating much better but I’m literally just eating a magnum 🤣
I’ve decided if I’m mostly eating better then I can have some treats
im generally not drinking alcohol at all, but did have a couple of glasses of wine over my period.
Mostly whole foods, and trying to eat good food for fertility (salmon, chicken, red meat, leafy greens) and loosely done some seed cycling

Does anyone get absolutely exhausted during the TWW. Not sure if it's related but Currently 6dpo and I've been absolutely knackered within a few hours of being awake the past few days.

Hi all
Just a bit of an update, got a BFP 2 days ago. On holiday in Portugal atm and struggling with the heat with my LO. Can't quite believe it and struggling to be excited after my MC in April but fingers crossed it sticks....
