November 2025 — snuggly jumpers, sparkly skies, and fingers crossed for our BFPs 🎇💖

[Iris2024]

Moving on from TTC October 🎃

Here’s a place to share your journey for November. We are all on a journey, feel free to share your journey, your worries, your rants and thoughts on our TWW going into November 🤍

Im currently CD9 of a new cycle after my early chemical miscarriage and my hycosy procedure.

Sorry to hear you might be out @Blondepeach, sending hugs.

Yesterday was the predicted due date for my loss in March. I can't actually believe how quickly that has come round and how different life might have looked. A family member announced their pregnancy yesterday too so a bit of a shit day. 😞

Hycosy day for me today, just rattling out a few hours work before I head up. Wish me luck pls gals, I'm nervous x

I told ye I have no will power 😭 what do ye think? I can’t see anything to be fair

@StayingHopefulx I’m afraid I can’t see anything there lovely. How many dpo are you?

Thank you @thismonthsfad ❤️

AF came today but I always feel like my BBT gives me a heads up and I’ve come to terms with it by the time it happens, so in a way I do feel BBT tracking useful.

Still undecided on the break but definitely considering it, I don’t think the obsessing is healthy and surely not good for stress levels. I also use ChatGPT WAY too much, I post my temp chart in there every single day 🙃 I will definitely stop myself doing that this month, may need to delete the app haha x

Thanks @Moosey898 💕

useful to know what to expect, I guess bloods first makes sense. I have had a lot of fertility focussed bloods done recently through a endocrinologist, so hopefully I can bring my results and be fast tracked to a scan etc x

Thank you very much @Taysonic 💕 AF arrived today to onto the next! Hope my referral pops up soon, would like to get the ball rolling x

So sorry @ttcnumerodos ❤️ sending loads of love today.

Also, good luck with the Hycosy today. I’ve read lots of threads on here where people say it wasn’t a bad experience at all. I find it’s always the ‘thought of’ these things that can be so anxiety inducing x

Hi all, I've just jumped on as trying not to get my hopes up too much. I've been ttc for 20 months but cycle went a bit absent in Jan. After various tests ive been diagnosed with PCOS, ?if I've not been ovulating regularly at all despite regular periods although slightly long cycle. My partner went for tests last tuesday so awaiting results of those.

Was expecting period to arrive yday but have been having some mild cramps and light brown discharge when wiping (sorry for tmi) since sunday - not enough to need a pad. Today is day 34 of cycle and for last 6 months cycles have been consistently 31-32 days.

I'm so worried about taking a test but I know its the only way. Might see if I can hold off to the weekend.

Wishing positivity for everyone x

Thank you 🥰 It was super quick. I could feel the dye going in and it was crampy, but it eased quickly. Everything looked ok so the fertility nurse is going to call me next week to discuss my bloods and next steps.

How are you doing today? x

Oh wow I’m so pleased it wasn’t too bad for you, aside from some cramping ☺️ I have a feeling I’ll be having one when I get referred to the recurrent loss clinic due to my ectopic that was at the start of the year.

Im all good today, AF showed up so onto the next!! ✨

@Limmers14 i didn’t see anything either to be fair! Not exactly sure? 8 I think but due period in 3 days

I can’t believe it, I’ve been doing LH tests after my chemical and long cycle last month and I’ve had no surge and I’ve just wiped and blood on CD19. What the actual F!!! I just want my normal cycle back and ovulation 😩😩🥲🥲🥲

No more blood now since… will see

I have some good news, got a positive test this morning ❤️ After 2.5 years, this feels a bit overwhelming!

Congratulations! Thrilled for you ❤️🫶🏻

Congratulations! I came on checking this thread this morning hoping for some good news - and this is it!!! Fingers crossed for a sticky bean and a smooth pregnancy.

Ah man, I wish you weren't being kept in this limbo. If it helps (and it probably doesn't), I had some weird cycles with odd mid-cycle bleeding and strange periods for quite a while after my last loss. It may have been due to the methotrexate treatment, but it was so confusing that I ended up being seen back at the Gynae emergency department for further tests.

I felt like an absolute idiot when the outcome of everything was 'it's just irregularities in your cycle following the methotrexate, it's really normal'. It was so frustrating and confusing. But, things have settled back down now. Hopefully.

Sadly, these things all take time... and time is often the thign we don't feel like we have to spare!

@Limmers14 massive congratulations to you !! Wishing you a smooth sailing pregnancy ☺️

Thank you @CDD1992, @Taysonic @Biscuitbaby2218!

Congratulations @Limmers14- such strong lines! All the best for your pregnancy xx

Hello ladies, been extremely busy with work this past week. CD6 today. Hope it'll be the month for us! ❤️

Hey everyone , I’ve come for some reassurances really… I started bleeding 2 days ago lightly, thought it was my period as it was due. Saying that I wasn’t 100% so I did a early detection test before a wedding yesterday and it was negative.. I had a few drinks yesterday.. bleeding stopped last night and hasn’t come back.. I’m running to the shop now but has anyone found out they were pregnant after a night of drink???! I’m stressed? I was convinced I was out due to the bleeding & negative pregnancy test! And I have all the guilt now incase it is positive sorry for the rant…

@Limmers14 massive congratulations 😍 hope it all goes well for you 🥰

well it doesn’t get much clearer than that…
I am so so SO excited but the guilt is eating me up now

Did you manage to get another test ?

I had similar with my pregnancy for my son, I was expecting my period and had had cramps on the Friday night, had a wedding and a few drinks on the Saturday. No period by the Tuesday so I tested and was positive. I reckon the cramps were maybe implantation. I can't remember if I did a (negative) test on the Saturday morning before the wedding, I probably did.

Anyway it was all fine, totally healthy and straightforward pregnancy. A few drinks that early on won't have any negative effect on an otherwise successful conception/implantation. I remember reading into it first time round as well. So many people don't know they are pregnant for a while and drink as normal!

Fingers crossed for good news for you xxx

@Doodlestar I did! A big fat positive!
thank you for sharing your story, it makes me feel less anxious hearing a similar experience! Thank you so so much!
