Ok so even though I said I wouldn’t I did a test this morning at 11DPO (could be more or less who knows) and I got a horrible I don’t know why I bothered. It’s only because I’m out seeing a friend tonight so didn’t want to have a drink if I was potentially pregnant but I won’t feel guilty for having a wine tonight if I want to… so I think I’m out anyway

Awww those bfn make your heart sink more than just waiting it out, but I’m glad you tested anyway. Cheer up, hopefully we’ll be soon!

So some of you may remember in the last ten months or so I have been spotting as early as 10/11 dpo, but my full flow won’t show until 15-17 dpo. I have heard this is a bad sign. I thought it was because I was on letrozole. After taking that for two months, I noticed this change, however, I have been off of it for many months, and it appears to be my new norm. My spotting is always dark brown for 3-5 days prior. Oddly though, tmi, this month I had fresh blood, but not enough to be cd1, just still spotting, and the. Today it went back to dark brown. I was quite active today, and after all the cramps I had yesterday, I thought I’d be in full swing today, but no. Anyone have any thoughts on why this is or if it is out of the ordinary? Thanks in advance.

@Sjf0709 aw sorry, seeing a bfn is such a let down. Best of luck for next month

@Fsb676 sorry I have absolutely no advice on this. what CD are you on currently? It’s very possible a change could be pregnancy? You could take a test just to see, but I am a pee on a stick addict haha good luck either way and hope someone has more advice for you xx

I was fine on Clomid but Letrozole really messed me up. I began to not ovulate, my period was later than usual and then came the mid-cycle bleeds.
I convinced myself I was going through the change.
Letrozole is supposed to be the better drug out of the two as well. I will say that after a few Letrozole cycles, it did take I think 3-4 for the mid-cycle bleeding to go away.

Hey, hope you all had a lovely Christmas

I'm only cd11 today. Took Soya this month so not sure what to expect. I will carry on taking Q10 and the rest of multivitamins.

Hows everyone else doing?

Spotting prior to your period is usually a sign of low progesterone! I don't get it when I'm using progesterone supplements but do when I'm not! Xx

Sorry I’m not sure where you’re up to but if you’re taking fertility meds then is there a doctor you could speak to about it? They might be able to help?

 

[Sjf0709]

I’m still holding out some (false) hope that I just tested too early to tell but I know that’s probably not true. I’d just like to know when I ovulate as I had a random super long cycle last month. At least if I knew then I’d at least have a better chance rather than a shot in the dark haha

 

[Sjf0709]

The last day of 2022. This year seems to have flown by! Fingers crossed for us all for 2023 and our BFPs! Sending lots of

 

[Sjf0709]

Happy New Year! May 2023 bring you health, happiness and your BFP!!

My app says I’m due on today but I think it’s gotta be wrong as that would leave me with a 26 day cycle which I’ve never had one so short. Holding off testing and may wait a few days first.

How’s everyone else getting on?

12dpo today,

nada
However I have a fertility appointment in feb, which gives me just over a month to actually try and lose some weight

 

[Kiwi_53]

Happy new year to everyone and good luck for Bfp’s I am now 1dpo I think by my opks and my normal cycle length. So just the two week wait now, providing I did actually ovulate yesterday we have done everything we could. Can’t believe we are in 2023. Let’s hope for a year full of positivity xx

 

[Sjf0709]

Oh my word ladies… I’m shaking and in shock.

I’ve just done a test… I’m still shaking. I honestly did not think this would be our lucky month as I had no idea when I ovulated!! I’ve taken a 2nd test but it’s of the same type so I’m going to go out and buy some more just to double check. We’ve previously had 2 early MCs before our rainbow baby so I am also a bit cautious to get excited too early but

OH MY! What a way to start 2023!!

Thank you so much! Hopefully this is a sign of things to come for all of the ladies on the forum for lots of BFPs this year! Sending lots of baby dust to everyone x
