[Iris2024]

Hey! Welcome to the Hopeful Hearts Circle 💕

Look out for this tagline every month and keep in touch and follow each others journey every month. We all got each other and we’ve got this girls!

Welcome to a wishful December 🎄🤍💞

How exciting @LuckyDuck93- delighted for you! Everything crossed for smooth sailing from now on 🥰

@Allmywishcometrue wishing you all the luck in the world💞

@Allmywishcometrue wishing you the best of luck.

@Janey3090lots of luck to you too. Fingers crossed this is your cycle.

@LuckyDuck93I did a 2nd test this morning as it’s been 48 hours and the line is slightly darker so I’m believing a little more but still totally shook. I hope we both have the best exciting journey 🤍

Oh my we have some bfps!!

Congratulations @Fullofconfusionand @LuckyDuck93i am SO happy for you!!

@LuckyDuck93this has been a LONG time for you hasn't it?! Xx

OH MY GAWWWD!!! @LuckyDuck93 I am just so excited for you. Keeping everything crossed for a super sticky bean and a smooth, uneventful pregnancy - congratulations, my love. 😍

Thanks everyone, its just coming up to 2 years @ChaE05 and I've never seen a single positive test, so im very much struggling to believe!

Congratulations @LuckyDuck93 that’s amazing news!

it took me 18 months to conceive my DD and I remember the absolute shock at seeing a positive, best feeling in the world though! I can only imagine how you’re feeling right now 💗

@Fullofconfusion @LuckyDuck93 congratulations to you both! Such lovely news to see 🥰

Congrats @LuckyDuck93 It always gives me such hope to see people conceiving after it’s been a while. Fingers crossed everything progresses smoothly for you xx

Oh wow @LuckyDuck93 that’s so exciting ! I know it’s hard but definitely try and enjoy it x

I’m CD13 and still low fertility according to the OPKs. Does this still sound plausible? Have never tracked before so very unsure, but I do suspect that I ovulate later than the standard CD14 as per Flo

@lepoissonMsounds totally normal to me. The tests are trying to catch your LH peak. So they should show a baseline level most of the time and then a peak. Some people have a gradual peak so maybe the day or two before it’s a bit higher and the day afterwards or some have a sharp peak eg: low and then high for a few hours and then low again (harder to catch on a test!). That’s my understanding anyone. Please someone correct me if I’m wrong.

An example of mine:

Thank you so much everyone!
only 3 tests done today 😅

@lepoissonM that can be normal, some cycles I didn’t get a peak until day 15/16, my peak was very quick though so I’d have to test morning and night to make sure I caught it!

Thanks @LuckyDuck93 @Fullofconfusion that is helpful. I’m very new to this so will take any advice! Im
using the Clearblue stick so I only have to test first thing in the morning. I don’t know if that will make a difference.

@lepoissonMI've only ever used the Premom strips so not sure about the clearblue but I would assume it’s all the same and you might find it stays low until you get a peak day.

@LuckyDuck93I’m so happy for you. Especially with how long it’s taken. TTC is a rough journey!

Oh hun, I feel so emotional for you, this is just the best. You deserve this so much 🥰

Thank you ladies, very grateful for you all making this journey a little less lonely ❤

Flashing smiley this morning at CD14. Relieved to see something is happening…!

Good stuff @lepoissonMthat sounds promising.

Thank goodness it’s the weekend. How is everyone doing?

@lepoissonM Yeay! Enjoy your weekend 😄

My appointment went well, the Dr agreed that I need medicated IUI. I have started medication to induce my period. Then I will start some medication to induce ovulation, then a trigger to release one (or I hope 2) follicles, then IUI, then progesterone. At least, I have a better chance this time.

I had to laugh because tge Dr told me last cycle my lining and follicle were beautiful and I was so happy. Ttc makes me weird, I am afraid 😄😄

Oooooooooohhhhhh I’m so happy!!! This thread I’ve started is proving to be a very lucky thread indeed.

@LuckyDuck93 Yaaaaayyyyyy!!!! So soooo happy for you darling and sending you so much love!

Good luck to everybody still to test this cycle. Including me, let’s hope the luck continues…

Hello from the TWW (probably O day last night/today). Anyone else at a similar stage?

Yep, me - I’m day 3 post ovulation! It’s already going so slow 😂

In a rather ridiculous turn of events I’ve manage to pull my back just as I come into my fertile days. What a twit. I’ve told my partner he has to artificially inseminate me

Loving seeing all the positives! Hope everyone is getting on ok. My LH has just shot up to .81 at cd 14 which is great for me - I usually ovulate on day 17 with a 8-10 day luteal phase so I'm buzzing. Hopefully the vitamin B6 is doing the trick 🤞🏻
