Yeh I’m the same! But it’s annoying as I don’t know when to count my first day of my period as? When do you guys count from?
Sorry if TMI but the day my flow goes bright red and have to change from pantyliners. It is annoying sometimes as my period as quite light so it’s harder to tell but basically when it gets heavier and colour changes to more of a ‘normal period’

Same, usually get pains that day too which helps to differentiate

12dpo - BBT still high. Boobs still big and sore. Heartburn like crazy. Had slight spotting this morning (it was light pink so who knows what it is) but I haven’t had my usual cramps like I do before AF. Stop me from going crazy!!!! Going to test tomorrow.

Hey peeps, thought I would jump on this thread as we’re currently TTC! Day 1 for me today I have just come on, I stopped taking my pill towards the end of March as we got married start of June. This will be my third ‘proper’ period off the pill and I was so naive to think it would happen so quick! Is it normal to feel so upset with myself?

Been using ovulation strips the last two cycles and think I just missed the egg on the days we were travelling back from holiday this time around 🙁 couldn’t test as regularly due to being away and flow said it was coming a couple of days after we got back but I got solid negatives from then onwards. My period has also come two days earlier than predicted so think my cycle is shortening down?

Any advice much appreciated and best of luck to everyone here xx

hey lovely!! Yes it’s very normal to feel upset, I think I felt more upset in the first few months of ttc than I do now a year later 😂just because you expect it to happen easily!
cycle length can vary month to month so I wouldn’t be too worried if they have gone down by 2 days unless your luteal phase lasts less than 11 days.
this thread has been a lifeline for all of us so rant away on here and I hope you get your BFP soon!

Glad to hear I’m not just being over sensitive and fingers crossed not much longer to wait for you!!

My cycle lengths have been 39, then 32, now 30 so hoping it’s my body getting back to normal after being on the pill!

Hoping that this is our month now that we’re back home in routine and I can track more accurately

Spoke too soon, AF on the way.. had me convinced this month! My first due date would have been this Saturday so feeling super sensitive that I’m still no where near to having a baby 😭 think I’m going to take this next cycle off, eat all of the sushi and sashimi before our fertility appt next month. It’s so much harder seeing my husband so hurt by this 😭

Weirdly I’ve started spotting since I started Prozac..

I was the same when I started Sertraline and sleep meds. Messed up my cycle for a couple of months but it's all back to normal now!
 
Hey. We are finally officially TTC baby number 2 this month after waiting and waiting for the right time (mainly to enjoy Glastonbury, our delayed covid honeymoon!). I’ve used the clear blue tests previous months to try get a hold of my dates but stupidly didn’t realise I ran out this month so been using the normal test strips but so far i haven’t had any positives despite being on the last day of my fertile window according to my app today. I always had a smiley face on the clear blue tests. Are the test strips not as accurate?

i did a pregnancy test last night and it’s positive and quite strong. I went through a misscarriage about 5 weeks ago that completely stopped about 4. I did about 4 test since then and they were all negative and then this one was positive last night 🤞🏼 It wouldn’t be from the misscarriage would it?

Welcome 😊 I think a lot of people who have used both types have found they get their peak at different times with each. I usually use the CB ones and haven't used the others though so I'm not much help!

Hello 😊 I think you're pregnant - congratulations 💕 I think if your miscarriage was 5 weeks ago and you were testing negative it wouldn't make much sense to test positive again unless it was a new pregnancy. Sorry to hear about your miscarriage too.

It could be given the time period (I think it can take about 6 weeks for the HCG to leave your body) but given that you had negatives previously it’s more likely this is from a new pregnancy. Fingers crossed for you test in a couple days hopefully it gets darker.

Hi All, New to this thread. Had a chemical pregnancy in April. And now TTC again. Currently 9dpo BFN this morning. (Still early )
I had a few symptoms (fatigue, sore boobs and increased appetite) Today I can't stop weeing and had some spotting today- very pale pink. Really hope this is the month!
whats the date you all got your BFP?

Welcome 😊 have never been pregnant but I think those that have been pregnant before typically get a BFP from 10DPO onwards. 9DPO is pretty early so you're definitely not out yet. Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻💕

I've just got both of these too as my husband has slow swimmers (maybe, waiting on a second test) I used the conception plus lube months ago and it burned my insides so won't be doing that again 😂 😂
