Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 12

Keekee

Morning all. Was away with work for a few days last week, hence the radio silence! Thanks Sexymouse for doing the lists.

CD1 for me I kind of knew I was out but then had spotting for 4 days from Thursday to yesterday. Normally I get 2 days of spotting but then a few clear days before AF arrives - this time the spotting continued so I thought, okay this is different ... maybe ... But not this time.

So, onwards and upwards. I got the results of my day 21 bloods last week - score of 34, which I understand means that I definitely OV'd, so very relieved with that. All other tests (thyroid, cholesterol, etc.) also came back okay, so now I'm going for the day 3 blood tests this week. Also got a scan booked in for early March, so at least things are being done.

Anyway, hope you guys are all good. Sorry to those who got AF... let's share a virtual bottle of wine or three

Well since I've done the test, I've started to spot, which means AF is probably on her way. In a way it's a good thing, as hopefully it means that this cycle will have been shorter than 30 days, so maybe my body is returning to my old cycles of 27 days.

Hi all

No internet at home atm so posting at work in dinner break.

I am CD20. No idea about ovulation as I don't track/test for it. It's a wait and see approach for us at the moment along with reading info online.

My cycle last month was 29 days but the first period was a withdrawal bleed from coming off pill so not sure it's entirely accurate. With that in mind, AF is due on 3 March? Plan to test before that - unsure when to be honest.

Just wanted to ask everyone how long you were TTC before you starting doing ovulation tests?

Sorry to hear your news Milliebob


I use pound shop tests Sexymouse and I read on them last night they can work 7-10 days post conception :eek: so they sound better than the other more expensive ones I have (which I will use when AF is due/late). But hopefully you have tested too early - a habit of mine!

Milliebob

I started using them straight away Rachy, because we wanted to catch quickly.... Haha hindsight is a wonderful thing! We thought it would be easy and I'd be due soon.

Made an appointment at the docs for next week. Hope I can leave work early for it.

Kynthia

CD2 and very upset.

Rachylou the first time I was ttc I bought a CBFM and started using it on my 4th or 5th cycle. I also downloaded the FF app and started temping. This time I started back up on the CBFM from month 3 of ttc.

Hi everyone hope you are all doing ok on this sucky Monday afternoon!

I have a confession, I tested yesterday but it was bfn. I'm not expecting it to happen on the first cycle but still hoping a little bit. My various apps say I'm in the 'implantation' period now, so every little twinge and ache I'm wondering if that's it... Need to try and hold out for at least another week before testing. So impatient!
