CD13 for me so expecting ovulation sometime in the next week and I have woke up today loaded with the cold! Baby dancing is last thing I want to be doing when I’m feeling this crap and I’m probably not looking the most attractive to my hubby either with tissues hanging out both nostrils 😂 Why does it always happen at the worst times 🥴

11DPO my boobs are tender but especially my left one its so tender and sore not having any cramps like AF will come any time soon got a bit of a headache but I didn't get much sleep last night so thats most likely why ive gone for a wee loads today already too but know that can be a sign of your period coming too thats why im deciding to test Wednesday now as that will be 14DPO ive got all the early detection tests as well as early detection digitals and to me if there negative wednesday then in my head were defonitly out this cycle my guts already telling me its not our cycle which im okay with as mentally ive prepared myself to be on this journey a little while yet and thats okay although we did have the discussion last night of a cut off point for trying for us personally but we will cross that bridge when we get there

12DPO and I gave in this morning if ive tested negative on a first response early result and a clear blue early detection digital does it mean im out for the month realistically ? Already in the head space of being out this month part of me want cycle day 1 to arrive so I know for certain either way got my ovulation tests in the amazon basket ready to go for next cycle i know 12DPO is super early but with how little HCG these tests needs I would have just assumed it would come up positive by now if i was ?

You’re not “out” until AF arrives ! You may have ovulated or implanted later than you thought .

It is always possible that you might have ovulated slightly later or slight later implantation

but I usually feel I accept it’s not our month if negative by what I think it’s 12dpo 🥲

so you’re not out til you’re out which feels like an annoying limbo

It's a complete mindfudge. Around cycle 3 of trying I made a resolute decision to only test from 14DPO on because I was just breaking my own heart testing early and still holding out hope. I have a shorter luteal cycle usually - 11/12 days so if I made it to 14DPO it would be a strong indicator that something was different. Obvi it's very individual but this system has worked to lessen sadness a bit for me.

Generally speaking though you are not out until AF arrives. Plenty of people ovulate later than they think ❤

i found it a lot easier last time to just assume i was going to get my period and that everything was PMS rather than get my hopes up. which meant the month i did test positive i didn’t actually do the test until 19 dpo 😂

Thank you think thats what I may start doing tbh it is such a mind field at your school your taught look at a boy and your get yourself pregnant not until you really start trying and you realise what a lie that is

I am also 12dpo today and googled again for advice, and it says implantation could be between day 6-12, so technically you could still have implantation happening the past day or so and so HGC hormone not yet showing on any tests. I am trying to hold off testing until 14dpo but the temptation has been so intrusive today, I have been sitting on my hands to stop myself.

The way sore boobs etc can mean either....is so annoying. This month my boobs have been hurting since 4dpo but implantion+hormones happen DPO 6-12, but boobs can be sore for up to 2 weeks before period. So annoying and confusing. I read it's because hormone changes after ovulation can fluctuate and cause the soreness regardless. ugh. Some months my boobs are only sore like a day or two before AF, and some months it's like a week before. Annoying and not consistent! no wonder we end up delulu through all this trying to spot patterns, etc.

14dpo, negative 😢 not over until AF arrives which is usually later for me but still. Woke up in a mood feeling tired and sad and decided to test after not letting myself the past few days. We spend our teens and early 20s being afraid of getting pregnant and then we want to and it seems to be so hard.
