Hey all - joining from the other thread - just turned 37 TTC #2 (DS 10 from another relationship) this is our 3rd month of trying. Had been on copper coil between DS and TTC #2 - Always had regular periods of 28/29 days with 5 days of bleeding. Last month and this one just gone periods have become really short - 3 days in May and 2 days in June. Taking Proceive max since January plus coQ10 - switched to Ovum middle of June. Also tried baby aspirin and cough medicine last cycle. Apart from that trying to eat and drink healthy - seed cycling plus beetroot juice (but none of those should have messed up my cycle) currently trying to contact GP

hey! i wonder if we’ll be cycle buddies again this cycle🤣 fingers crossed for us both!xx

Hi @megan345thatd be cool!! I’m due to ovulate on the 29th June (but might change with OPKs) I did my baseline Proov test today which had two lines so negative so a strong start to the cycle (it’s meant to be negative at this point)

Hi all, hope it’s okay to join!

We’re on cycle 2 trying to conceive #1 after being on the mirena coil for the past ~8 years. Convinced it would happen in the first month 😆 Currently 7 dpo so 🤞🏻 for next week.

Lots of luck everyone!!

EmPeEf · 20/06/2025 20:24

I’m in a world of misery and confusion (to be dramatic 😂). Been mostly bedridden for 3-4 days feeling terrible. Horrendous mood swings and go to flare ups. Last night was running very hot to the touch but shivering, but normal temperature. Day before yesterday I had waves of nausea every hour so strong that I couldn’t move. Just lay with my eyes closed trying to cope. Tonight I’ve had the same strong waves and have vomitted really awfully. Why did it have to be garlic 😩😩

Only 5dpo according to my apps if I even ovulated (chemical last month and I took CD1 as the first day of bleeding).

What is going on with me?? I don’t think I’m ill with a bug or anything because I have periods of feeling fine. But for hours at a time I’m utterly floored with intense symptoms. Is progesterone just kicking my arse?

My chart for this month.

peanutForever · 20/06/2025 21:38

@EmPeEf I think you must be coming down with something as progesterone should not be causing such bad symptoms like that even in early pregnancy... I once had a bug like this and felt pregnant eventho i knew i couldnt be at the time, i remember saying to DH this feels like preg with DS at 9weeks when nausea/sickness peaks. Any chance you ovulated earlier, have you tested at all?

@MyPeppyLimeBearyeah BFNs as its too early, i hate shadows i think evaps are so disapponting, test in a few days and then hopefully we see something! Best of luck! X

EmPeEf · 20/06/2025 21:55

@peanutForever I thought a few days ago I’m either getting sick or maybe a really bad fibromyalgia flare, but I don’t have a high temperature and I have periods where I feel normal and fine. Was looking forward to taking the dogs for a walk this evening till the nausea hit!

No idea when I OV. Had no positive test. I think the apps have done their best to just guess. But that rise in my BBT happened the same day of my highest LH test (which was still low). And isn’t BBT meant to rise a few days after? Could I be 8dpo instead?
BFN today on cheap strip.

How many days after EWCM do people usually ovulate?

peanutForever · 20/06/2025 21:57

I really hope its not a bad fibromyalgia flare! @EmPeEfi dont have any experience tracking bbt! But if you are 8DPO maybe test in two more days? If you have caught again the symptoms could just be starting if a wee egg has implanted..and maybe theres overlap of a bit of both, you still arent out this month though and whatever it is i hope this passes x

EmPeEf · 20/06/2025 22:02

@peanutForever thank you. I feel like someone has invaded my body!

This is my FF chart. It put me as OV CD17, but my first spike was CD15. Was it because it went back below cover that it didn’t think it was then? This is my first month tracking so my cover line was only established yesterday after 3 rises.

Hi all, jumping over from previous thread. I’m 39 and TTC #2. DS is 20 months. This is cycle 7. Have started investigations and had a HyCosy this week so hoping for increased fertility as Doctor suggested. Fingers crossed for everyone !

CoolLimeSheep · 21/06/2025 01:22

Missed ovulation partner too tired when I finished work at 10 pm common occurance didn't even say it was ovulation. Feeling whats the point at this point. Sorry for negative message

peanutForever · 21/06/2025 06:56

See at @EmPeEfi feel like the first month tracking is always unreliable/ you can't really establish a proper pattern to compare it against

@Midnight00good luck! Ive heard good things about hycosys

@CoolLimeSheepyou still have a five day window did you manage to dtd before this? and you still have today to make up for it if you ovulated yesterday- eggs around for a day or so

FarAwayBird · 21/06/2025 06:59

@FlyHighSky72 @MyPeppyLimeBear I conceived second cycle with my first! That was only 6 weeks after having copper coil removed. Fertility returns pretty much instantly with it.

FarAwayBird · 21/06/2025 07:00

You’re up early, @peanutForever ! Morning!

peanutForever · 21/06/2025 07:15

@FarAwayBirdmorning! Yes its very hot over here and i have a 4yr old who is up at 6am like clockwork, never a days rest, sorry i i woke anyone with the notification i was keen to poas to make sure LH levels have dropped..even if i want a lay in DS is constantly coming in trying to wake me lol

FlyHighSky72 · 21/06/2025 08:05

@FarAwayBirdyes that’s what I’ve heard but that’s why I’m not sure what’s going on with my cycle! Seriously weird

Sweetpeach31 · 21/06/2025 08:16

Hi, I hope it is ok to join. We’re current TTC baby 2, currently cycle 2. I’m 31 and my partner is 35. I came of the pill in April and my period last month was 2 days late. This month I decided to try clear blue ovulation test to track my ovulation and today CD22 I got a smiley face for positive ovulation!!! My cycles have always been 28-31 days.

We conceived Cycle 2 with no ovulation test last time but that was 4 years ago. I feel so stressed and like it’s never going to happen this time especially now I’ve got a late ovulation 😩

am I too late to conceive this month? Will my partners age affect fertility?

Iris2024 · 21/06/2025 10:29

Totally forgot we are on a new thread and posted on the old one 🙄

Peak this morning and we’ve not managed to DTD yet in fertile window, last time was 6 days ago, was really crappy with my DP last night and I wasn’t in the mood then. Is it best to DTD now tonight and tomorrow? Feel so frustrated 😩 I’ve attached my tests. Really wanted to DTD to the lead up to peak 😩😞 If we conceive this cycle when I’m so peeved off and frustrated will be a story to tell as I’ve told myself I’m already out 🤣

TESTS BELOW 👇🏽 🤍

Iris2024 · 21/06/2025 10:31

ChaE05 · 21/06/2025 12:15

Hi @Sweetpeach31welcome! 🥰 when did you start tracking with clearblue? You are not too late at all! It's great you got a smiley, just dtd today and tomorrow and try not to stress! This is only second month of trying 😊 and please don't worry about your age! Think lots of us had babies much later on. I had my boy when I was 36 xx
