TTC November

[Moosey898]

Hi everyone! Just starting up a thread for those of us who will be TTC/in our 2 week wait coming into November. Hope everyone is doing well!

@Thomsonetthompsonfingers crossed for you! I know last month on the day I got a BFN and was gutted my SIL announced she was pregnant, I was so happy for them but crying inside, really tough isn’t it!

Hi all,
10 DPO today and negative. This is our second try. I got too excited last month so keeping a more realistic mindset this time round.

Joining as I should be more or less in the TWW but I haven't been tracking. Cycles the past few months have been weirdly longer, currently CD20. Up until a few months ago I had 28/29 day cycles but recently they've been anything up to 34. So annoying. I have been a bit ill at times and had a lot going on thiugh. If we conceive this would be my first so I'm rather excited. Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting!

It’s so hard not to symptom spot! At 9dpo you’re very much still in for this month so 🤞🏻
Sorry to hear it’s been a difficult journey trying for your second. How old is your DC?

I’m finding the monthly disappointment harder this time round than I did when TTC first time, which I really didn’t expect.

13dpo today and no period yet but my temp was 36.11 this morning which is a sure sign for me that it’s coming.

@CatsMcGoo Yes 2nd time is much harder for me too! I think it's because I see my son getting older month by month and recalculating the age gap. Especially as miscarriage due dates pass and I can totally imagine him with a sibling now.

I'm terrified for testing tomorrow at 12dpo. Christmas just seems like such a big milestone.

I hope you're wrong about your temperature and your period never shows!

Hi everyone,

May I join? I am doing IUI, hoping to be able to do it before the end of the month (I have ridiculously long cycles, so it's hard to predict). It's my first month trying.

I'm hoping to see a lot of you get good news!

(Why is it so hard to introduce myself 😃 ttc is so exciting but definitely scary, and posting it here makes it all so real)

My last 2 cycles have been over 40 days. I feel your pain. I think that stress and tiredness have definitely been a big part of the cause so I am prioritising rest, mindfulness and good food.

Really hope it was good news for you today!

I know what you mean about the age gap, I do that too!

Unfortunately my period started on Thursday evening, as expected after the temp drop. I’ve actually decided to stop doing BBT tracking, for this month at least. I find waiting for the rise after ovulation and seeing the pre-period drop too stressful. Will just do OPKs and try to ‘relax’ 😂

Today is 10dpo for me and Im sure I can see some faint lines. Not 100% sure it'll stick though, I was really confident I had my usual pms symptoms last week and my bbt took a big dip on Saturday. Just have to cross everything and hope for stronger lines later in the week

I do indeed see a second line second line.

🤞for you.

@Littlegreenpebbles the big dip on Saturday might have been implantation 🤞🏻 the lines are definitely there though, fingers crossed for a sticky baby x

That's an encouraging thought HansBanans. In any case, I'll be feeling quite cautious about getting too optimistic until 5/6 weeks.

Holding off on saying anything to my husband until dpo12/some stronger lines as I've gotten his hopes up before only for the lines to fade away.

@Littlegreenpebblesi see the lines too 😁😁 congratulations hope they continue to progress for you 😁😁

These are MUCH stronger than the 10DPO lines I had last Monday, you needed a microscope and a sense of humour to see them so this is very encouraging!

Hi all,
I’d appreciate some help understanding my Mira chart please. I’m on my 2nd cycle of clomid - 1st cycle 50mg failed to make me ovulate, 2nd cycle 100mg currently CD25. I thought I ovulated on CD23 early morning based on my Mira readings and also tons of EWCM and cramps CD22 and CD23. All ovulation symptoms vanished in CD23 and my BBT has been up by 0.4-0.5 for the last 4 days on my Oura ring but today I’ve seen a huge estrogen peak. Does this mean ovu is still to come? My LH rise on CD22 was lower than what I usually see. So confused and dreading another failed cycle. Thanks so much for any thoughts.

Hello, sorry joining late! Started trying properly this month but came off the pill in August time and track my periods on an app but don’t test
according to app I’m 8dpo but I think I’m 7. I’ve got horrible cramps and red blood when I wiped earlier but nothing on my knickers. Not due on til Saturday and feel I’m going mad!!

Some women do get implantation bleeding around this time. Is it common for you to bleed in the week before a period?

@Bs93i would say that sounds promising esp with the bleeding, potentially implantation 😁🤞🏼

9dpo! Can this be? I don’t know enough about indents and evap lines, could this be them? Or is it positive?!

I definitely see a line in the second picture (and kinda see one in the first, but I'm less sure).

I am new to all this so not an expert but I don't think it looks like an evaporation line

I can definitely see a faint line in both!

Definitely proper lines! Thats so early too!

I can’t believe it yet incase it’s not real, I’ll test again in the morning and try get hold of a digital!

Keep us updated!! How long have you been trying for?

@Bs93i will do im going to try get a digital today without my partner noticing 🤣 i dont want to tell him until im certain. This was second cycle for baby #2
