June/July TTC Thread❤️ CONTINUED

[FarAwayBird]

Starting a new thread because we got to 999 replies!

@EmPeEf thank you, I think if it wasn't for needing to work out dates for the progesterone tests I wouldn't worry too much for exact date as we have been having sex every other day anyway. Hopefully we'll catch OV whenever it was/will be and I'll just have to have bloods done on best guess 🤷🏻‍♀️🤞🏻

From what I've been reading, repeated surges can be a sign your body is trying to ovulate and initial surge may not have been enough. I'm in similar boat where my 'peak' so far this month went to 0.65 and I don't know if that triggered ovulation or not, I think you'll have to keep monitoring LH and watch out for other signs. The last one you did on CD14 may have still been rising slightly but more diluted from a day of drinking fluids so it shows it dropping? Try one with FMU tomorrow, I know it's supposed to be better in afternoon but I drink too much water I think because I always get stronger readings in morning! Do you normally OV early, because you're still in a very normal range to OV so I wouldn't worry! 🤞🏻❤️

New cycle and I'm back again! I got my clearblue solid smiley on CD9, so I'm around 5/6dpo but only DTD on CD9 due to being unwell. So I'm not feeling hopeful that this cycle is the one. That doesn't stop the urge to test though 😂 I'm holding out as long as I can! I also finally went to my GP and I am getting some bloods done and an ultrasound to investigate what's going on with my body, hopefully get the results on a couple of weeks (due around AF) Fingers crossed for everyone still here xx

Just checking the weather app and when I’m likely to ovulate, earliest is probably Saturday and latest Tuesday which correlate with a few cooler days, might even be persuaded to give it a good go this month!

Oh yes of course, stupid me. You said it didn’t you. I’m sorry.

Oh goodness don't be sorry, this thread moves like mad and everyone has so many different circumstances it's impossible to keep track! Thank you for replying in the first place lovely 🙂😘 xx

@Kerrylf hopefully you caught it! He might have some speedy swimmers 😉😆 I'm not actually familiar with the Clearblue ovulation tests, do they show static smiley at peak? If so sounds like perfect timing as you would've OVd day 10? Even if you OVd day 9 the egg would've been waiting about for his lads so hopefully you had a patient one 😆🤞🏻

@DorsetGirl89hooefully they've worked hard this month 😂
Yeah, a static smiley is displayed at peak when it detects an estrogen and LH surge. They claim to be the only test to track two hormones, but no idea whether or not that makes a difference. I just never caught my peak on the cheapies. Just a week or so to go!

@Iris2024 hopefully you get a BFP right before your holidays 🤞🏻

@ForGiddyDreamer I think that sounds like a good plan. It'll take the pressure off a bit.

@EmPeEf I'm glad that OV was confirmed!

@Kerrylf great that you're getting tests 👏🏻

I finally tested negative this morning which is within the three weeks the EPU said it needed to be. So now I'm waiting for AF to arrive. I got my period back four weeks after my first loss so I'm hoping for the same this time 🤞🏻

@SureLook I hope you're feeling OK. Waiting and hoping for the test to be negative just feels wrong. That's how I felt anyhow. Hopefully AF shows up soon and you can move on to the next cycle x

@ForGiddyDreamer I know, its such a strange feeling. The polar opposite of what you want!

I’ll try with fmu I never eat or drink anything before my first test though so I doubt it will affect it ? I’m not sure exactly when I normally ovulate as I always give up with LH testing lol I did have ewcm CD 12 and no more until now i’ve had watery clear cm so hoping I get my actual peak soon🤞🏻

Probably won't affect it then no. Keeping fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻

Hows everyone doing? I am 4 weeks pregnant today so it would have been my period due day today and it is so surreal to know it won't be coming. My test line is as dark as the control line today so I think I will stop testing and just hope that everything is ok.

@Mummysparrowthis is so lovely 🥰 what a great feeling x

All okay here lovely, CD10 and waiting for peak. This is so lovely and so happy for you ❤️ how long was you trying again?

Those of you who experienced a miscarriage, what was your cycle like after the first period?

I normally ovulate around day 14 but currently on day 15 and no sign of a positive ovulation test yet (but had ewcm Mon/Tues). My bbt also looks like a rollercoaster but haven't had the post ovu spike yet.

I'm assuming it's the MC/ hormones just causing some havoc still? We BD every other day and will continue until things spike. But I love stats and data so it's frustrating when things don't follow my normal pattern!

*CD11 sorry! Getting lost 🤣

@Iris2024i was trying for just over a year since a loss in may 2024 ☺️ really hope this little bean sticks and is healthy

@Mummysparrow congratulations, I wish you all the best. I have been TTC 7 months since my loss and finally getting some tests from the GP. x

Ah @Mummysparrow that's a long time waiting for your 🌈 I really wish for all to continue swimmingly well ❤️

7DPO here. Hoping a little fertilised egg is making its way along and getting ready to implant nice and firmly into a cosy warm womb! We shall see. Lots to distract me luckily for the rest of the week, celebrations with family. I think I'll test Sunday which will be 11DPO.

I now have 5 pregnant friends. With those that are early on, I can't help wishing it happens for me this month so that our babies can be close in age and our mat leave can overlap. But I guess whenever it happens I'm bound to have a friend pregnant around the same time as it seems everyone is at it!!

Hi everyone, just catching up, congratulations to all the BFPs 😃
@DorsetGirl89 i'm having the same issue, got my progesterone bloods booked (had to go for 1 day early as as it was a saturday) and now i'm getting a bit worried that i'm going to ovulate late as I'm CD12 and no sign of a peak, although I do have quite a short peak anyway. Its hard work this ttc business isnt it

Morning Ladies, hope everyone okay. Been a bit quiet as not much happening here! CD7. Have just got some more blood test results back that I paid for privately. AMH, T3&4, prolactin and testosterone. Everything came back within range apart from testosterone which came back low! I didn't even realise it was a concern for us women but I took the advice from the book 'it starts with the egg' and apparently its important. I'm a bit concerned now. Anyone know much on it or had theirs tested?! X

Hey everyone. Just checking in. Congratulations to all the positives.

I've worried myself today .
I did my last CB digital just now , at 5 weeks 1 day, expecting it to be 3+ as I got a 2-3 at the weekend.
It's gone back down to 1-2 .

Any advice ? Suppose I just have to wait and see. Perhaps go buy another one to do in the morning .
