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!

Hey,

Jhm88 I know what you mean about trying not to track obsessively. Its hard not to get sucked into monitoring every change. So sorry about your CP, Ive been there and its so distressing. I hopd you're doing ok.

SleepySkyRat and ErickBroch ah that's always the way! Who would have imagined that half the battle is both being free and fit on the right day. Good luck for the next cycle.

@ErickBroch sometimes the months with little symptoms are the ones 🤞🤞🤞 was like this with my Daughter. Will you test Monday?

@Jhm88 I feel your approach is what I need to do and am going to be doing going forward for sure!
Good luck, when will you test?

@LaurLou22 congratulations 🎊 my lines at 14dpo were the same as your 10dpo with my daughter. Hard but try not to worry x

thank you! I’m trying to wait until Monday - hard!!

Hi, I will join in again this round, cycle 3 of TTC #1 - first cycle August was BFN, 2nd cycle in September was weird and I had an unusually late period with a few very very faint lines that didn't darken and then went neg, then had weird bleeding on and off so I'm assuming that was maybe a chemical, October we didn't really have sex as I was trying to see what was happening with my weird period bleeding and also life got in the way as my grandfather was in hospital really unwell so that was just a stressful month and we didn't try, but now back on it this month - entering fertile week now, my period should be due round about 5th December so will keep fingers and toes crossed and see what happens. Wishing everyone the best of luck now and in the future!

Update to my last post about line progression, I’m 14 or 15dpo now and at the ‘missed period’ stage finally!
I do have a horrific cold though, hope baby is feeling strong 🙃

My TWW can begin tomorrow I believe! So this is cycle #2 trying for baby #2! I’m guessing I’ve ovulated today looking at LH tests and the deed was done CD 12 and CD 14 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Interestingly, today I felt different. Boobs sore, heavy, and had a lot of lower back ache. I don’t have these with my period. However, this evening I went to the loo and spotted (a very small) amount of brown discharge. Again, I don’t usually have this pre-period… so part of me thinks could it be implantation?? But I’m about 10-11DPO so pretty sure that’s not likely. Oh well. Onto the next!’

This is wonderful!!! So pleased for you

I’m 10/11DPO and have similar symptoms too so you never know! Only other different one I never have in my luteal phase is a stuffy nose. I’m going to start testing tomorrow

Tested this morning with two Premom tests and faint lines on both, even my husband can see them and he would be the first to say no! Went and got a clear blue pack (two blue line tests and a digital) and did one of the line tests and also very faint. Going to keep the rest for later this week when my period is due (Thursday) but cautiously hopeful!

Congratulations Clarysjb, hope you see some lovely line progression when you test later in the week

Im 3 days DPO today, we tried that fertility lubricant this time round so fingers crossed that makes a difference.

AF arrived this morning whilst I’m at the airport with a huge delay - lovely! First cycle trying but I wasn’t tracking my ovulation independently. I will try this month to do it properly.

Thank you, it’s quite faint at the moment so finding it hard to fully believe it!

Sorry to hear this and what a horrible time for it to happen at the airport! Wishing you the best of luck for next cycle!

I’m with you @ErickBroch ! CD1 for me today too, beginning of my 3rd cycle ttc AF was running a few days late for me and giving me a slither of false hope too just to make matters worse 😅

onto the next ! Good luck for this new cycle

hey lovelies hope your month is going ok! I’m 9dpo today, test was negative this morning. Temps are still elevated. Usually 31 day cycle (ovulated cd20). This evening I spotted a single spot of blood in my undies - nothing when I wiped. Have never had this before, any ideas?

Hi ladies,
May I join also? Loving reading all of your updates. We decided to ttc last week so it's officially cycle 1 CD1 today. I have a 12 year old myself and we share a 2 year old. Neither of which were planned so this whole ttc world is totally new to me and I am just learning as I go.
Everything crossed for everyone on the same journey 🤞

No I hate that for you! Sending love - next cycle!!

Help…. BFN but temp is still high after a slight dip yesterday! Current 11d luteal phase for me which is consistent. Period was here on 12dpo last month. Am I out as tests are negative?

My head is all over the place today. It’s our 5th cycle TTC number 2. Been a weird cycle as I’ve been ill twice, so ovulated late (cd21 instead of usual day 16/17). My temp chart is useless this month due to fevers when ill and terrible sleep due to cold symptoms 😭 Had positive OPK on day 20 and dtd same day, but not on the actual day of ovulation for logistical reasons.
Today is cd33 (usually 28-29 days, but ovulated late so I guess AF isn’t late yet) and I’m 12dpo - usually my period would start on 12 or 13dpo though.
Negative tests 9 and 11dpo though, so tbh I’m pretty sure I’m out. BUT the 11dpo test was in the early evening, and I had drank quite a bit of liquid so I’m still holding out a scrap of hope 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Lovely seeing so many positive tests! Congrats to all who have them x

I'm starting my ovulation tests again in on day 12 of my cycle so due to ovulate in 5 days. Its my least favourite part of TTC, get so sicking on weeing on the test things lol

That sounds rough CatsMcGoo, hope you're fully recovered now

@CatsMcGoo day before is the most likely day and 11dpo is still early so fingers crossed!

I'm 9dpo and got all the symptoms of my 3 positive months but that happened last month and the test was negative so desperately trying not to symptom spot. This is month 11 of TTC our 2nd (with a mc and ectopic) and really can't face Christmas not pregnant. Especially when I really strongly suspect SIL is and will announce with great fanfare.
