Oh goodie, I am joining you ladies today! I'm 1dpo today

Day 1 - Ovulation: Your newly released egg will only survive 24 hours, but hopefully in that time, it will meet a sperm and be fertilized. Only about 300 sperm (out of millions) reach the right tube at about the right time, but only one is needed.

I'm keeping my FX that fertilization will take place! Our bd wasn't timed the best...we dtd on Friday, then yesterday morning and I ovulated Yesterday somewhere between 7:30am and 9pm ...we tried to dtd last night but it was an epic fail. Sighs...anyway, I can only hope! Will test for ovulation again round about CD20/21/22 just to make sure that O did happen earlier than expected.

Been having the normal post O symptoms though;
- thin/watery milky CM (very scant)
- skin breakout
- heavy emotional
- nausea
- Headache
- extremely tired
- metallic taste in mouth (yesterday - was random)
- slight cramping in lower abdomen

My friend told me she is pregnant, I was happy for her and of course sad for myself lol..hopefully I too will have something to announce soon.

good luck ladies! Hope everyone is doing well! xxx

Oh well looks like I jumped the gun on O....did an OPK this afternoon just to check and I think I've only actually O'd today.....or am about to O.

What are your opinions on O?

Good luck everyone all sounding very positive! I still feel unwell. Af is just about gone so another week to go till we can dtd for December BFP. I am glad I have time to get rid of this cold...had it 2 weeks bow and each day I feel worse! Nightmare.

Got my work xmas do this Saturday...not really feeling christmasy Just wish one of us long termer ttcs gets our BFP for Christmas

You need super smoothies! Im proper into them atm. Frozen fruit wazzed up with yoghurt or icecream!! Delicious and massive vit C injection.
Yeah one of us has to get a Christmas BFP! Well why not all of us?
I think you will catch Alexis, I've started trying to drink more bottled water as not too keen on chemicals in tap water.
Ughh works Christmas dos! Really I try to get out of anything like that these days, not being a misery but I dont think any I've been on have been that great.
Im feeling Christmassy just need some energy!! Feel like sleeping so much ! Im even in bed now lol xxx

I take 2000mg of vit c every day! I ran out and then got this dam cold the ext day. I am sure its related haha. I am hoping you get this bfp I have pur the cosmic request in and It just feels right that it's your time now after everything you have pulled through...the stars will align for you now.

I know I won't ever have a baby. I just know it in my heart of hearts. I wish I was wrong but I have no good feelings at all. I can't picture it , I can't visulise it anymore and I have no hope left. I am sounding negative but I see it as being realistic and trying to move forward. I just haven't figured out what it is I am meant to do now.

Oh Alexis it breaks my heart to hear you say that!! I have hope for you, and so do all the other woman on this forum! Keep your chin up and keep positive and focus on other positive things happening in your life atm. Maybe taking a break to do just that will leave you mentally more able to move forward xx

Yeah I think a break would just make me quit trying tbh. Don't worry about me I guess we all have a path we must follow and maybe 1 day I will undertand why? I asked DH about quitting but he saya he doesnt want too. I will do all I can to make it happen including ivf but I just am convinced it would have happened by now if it was going too and I don't know how I can ever believe it will happen. I get really annoyed with myself and I feel like speaking to someone would help but I worry they would think 1 year of trying is nothing inngrand scheme of things.

Yes I think you shouldn’t stop trying but like not think about it if that makes sense? Give your mind a break, enjoy your oh and enjoy time together and who knows it may just happen without you even knowing !! I have my hopes for you xxx

losing my head this month after last months Chem. I feel very pregnant but 10DPO and did a FRER and nothing not even a squint

Tara is said to TT in another post. My mc back in February, I didn’t get a positive untill 9 days past late period! I’m honestly amazed when woman get such early tests! Keep your chin up keep testing ! Xxx

 

[Fastnet1]

Millielaura I'm waiting on my tests to arrive too. Thought theyd be here today. Tbh though o woke this morning and my temps have gone down so I'm thinking af is just around the corner. I've been really grumpy today too exactly how I get before af hits. 9dpo today. Few niggles left ovary side but nothing that stands out. We'll see what tomorrow brings.
Tara I don't think your out yet, keep going.
Kat that opk def looks positive. Hope you managed to get in some bd!

 

[treetrunks]

Af due Sunday, got dark brown spotting today so not sure if im out?
Anyway there's another chance for a Christmas ish BFP lol. Anytime will do tbh....

dark brown spotting is usually old blood is it not? But you’re right you can always still get a Christmas bfp!! Test again at your period expectant date and keep us updated T, Fx!

Could brown spotting be IB? If your 10dpo its possible?? Fingers crossed x

I just had to check out KatDs wiggling bums and I love them haha I hate how tapatalk doesn't let you see the signatures so I had to wait until I was on my laptop hahaha xx

 

[treetrunks]

Hmm maybe, it has nearly disappeared at the moment.
But chances are im just going to get AF.
Will see what its like in the morning. Had some odd stretching pains bottom left of my abdomen, boobs still achy on nipples and all round.
Would like to keep hopeful for now xxx

Just as I was having high hopes (go figure) for this cycle, I woke up with a scratchy throat and a phlegm-cough. This sucks. DH thinks it's because of all the exercising I've been doing, so I'm relaxing for the next three days. Can't keep my eyes open! Lol. FX it's not a nasty cold! Other than that, no symptoms whatsoever. I think I'm 1dpo today...

 

[Melly41]

Hope you feel better soon Kat! At least you have finished hour fertile window so you can take it easy over next few days....think im 2dpo today....its always hard to exactly pinpoint actual ovulation but i reckon 2dpo sounds about right! Might be testing at a similar time. Although my plan is to test if af doesnt arrive when it should, rather than a few days before! Hoping xmas festivities will be enough to distract me! Not feeling hopeful though as bought 6 bottles of prosecco and 6 bottles if red wine for the xmas period!

 

[millielaura]

Started progesterone yesterday to boost my levels a bit so cant really symptom spot now as it gives me symptoms haha! xxx

2dpo today and I am EXHAUSTED! I'm sleeping at every chance I get, it just feels like I don't get enough sleep at all. Having a nasty skin breakout bleh, very watery cm, slight bouts of nausea, lower back pain and very emotional lol. So far all the classic symptoms of pms except for the fatigue. I've not had it this bad ever. Lol. FX for a bfp, I'd hate to have another negative!

 

[linxminx21]

Well I'm coming up to my fertile week... I'm dreading it... Only because poor oh hours at work are mental atm and he's always tired. Plus we deliver Chinese on a Friday and sat till 10.30. He only gets Sundays off and with two kiddies already its hard enough to dtd lol!
Going to have to wake him up lol! Poor oh.

They all sound pregnancy related too kat.....edpecially the tiredness and nausea. Funny ive had a couple of spots pop up on my face which is unusual this early....usually its a day or two before af. Fingers crossed kat x

I'm on the edge of my seat for you hehe I had a huge breakout and my skin was a mess for about a week just before I got my bfp and I never have that so I was thinking it was down to a hormone imbalance that was causing my cycles to be crazy too.

If it helps anyone the past few weeks I have had heavy over sensitive boobs. My areolas have definitely darkened which startled me one day then I thought it was in my head. Terrible skin break out and af-like cramps. Upset tummy and then got every cold symptom going haha

I hate how similar all that is to pms and af but some of it was different for me than usual. I also had a random brown bleed near ovulation and then another random red one a few days after af was due xx
