Ttc #2

[Mom15]

I have no personal experience with cysts. When you said you had pain I remembered how I had read that the corpus luteum keeps growing and I wondered if that could cause pain. So I googled pain after O and I started reading about the cysts and it kind of matched what you described. I don't think they are bad and resolve on their own and maybe I'm totally wrong. I have no education in the medical field so don't quote me. Haha.

Thanks! I guess it could be, I don't have experience of them either. It seems a lot better today, as do my tender boobs but now that is just worrying me ! Can't win and everything is a symptom in the tww!

 

[Mom15]

Yes I hear you! I guess the only thing about having the short LP issues I've been having it helps with not symptom spotting cause all I do from 3dpo on is check whether or not I started bleeding 😳

 

[Mom15]

I'm only 12 dpo and while I still have creamy cm I swear I am starting to get some ewcm and my cervix feels way too open for this early in my cycle. Getting my hopes of early O up a bit. Opk again just a faint line today though.

 

[fxmummyduck]

Hope it could be heading to an early O for you! I've never found that opks keep up with ewcm, maybe I have a really short surge or I start getting ewcm quite a few days in advance.

7 dpo here, boobs don't hurt really anymore, I've had a few light twinges/cramps and that's it. Nothing else to mention!! Arghh still ages to test

Hi ladies!

I'm looking for some TTC friends to make this whole thing that little bit easier. DH and I got married in July and have been trying for #2 since August. So far no luck. I am 5 DPO today so fingers crossed! How is everyone else getting on? X

 

[fxmummyduck]

Welcome Tess! We've been trying for #2 roughly the same time. Congrats on getting married!

I'm cd1, unfortunately af got me this morning on only cd23 😢 Really hope my cold/flu is what messed this cycle up. Good luck to you!

 

[Mom15]

Hey Tess and welcome!! I have also been trying since July although this is only the third cycle. We've skipped a couple here and there due to traveling. Good luck! Do you plan to test or just waiting to see if AF shows up?

Fxmummy - I'm so sorry and know how you feel. I think the bad cold I had two cycles ago cause my first anovulatory cycle. I started AF on Cd20. It was really light.

Afm - I am in disbelief, I really think I'll be ovulating in a a couple of days or so. Can't wait to do my opk tomorrow. This would be by far my earliest O ever.

 

[fxmummyduck]

That's great mom! Can't wait to hear your opk is positive soon! At least with this short cycle I get to try again even sooner. That's the only positive I can see at the moment.

 

[Tess08]

Thanks mommyduck! Oh no that's not good it's bad enough when the witch shows on time but even worse when you aren't expecting it! But yeh that's a good way to look at it, it means you can try again soon in a couple of weeks! Fresh cycle, fresh start good luck to u!

Hi mom15. Yes we are the same! Been trying since August but there's only been 3 cycles in that time that we've actually tried so do I could that as trying for 6 months or trying for 3 haha? I'm going to try my best to hold off until AF doesn't show but I can never wait so might test on tues! That will make me 9DPO and that's what I was when I got a pos with DD. I usually get sore boobs at 6DPO tho and then my AF shows bang on time. I woke up with sore boobs this morning so already think I'm out. That's fab u think ur going to O sooner than expected! I have long cycles and don't tend to O till CD25ish so I know how frustrating waiting to O can be. Look forward to hearing your OPK is pos x

 

[Mom15]

Well I think my opk was positive today!! What do you guys think? Pre DS the earliest I O'ed was cd25 and post DS cd24. Although last cycle it was cd20, but I wasn't sure that the weird light bleeding I had was AF so it could have potentially been o on Cd40. But o so early this time maybe it truly was cd20 O. So I'm thrilled, now I just have to make it longer than my post DS record of 9day LP. I'll post a pic in a minute. Let me know what you think?

 

[Mom15]

Here is the pic

 

[MrsKChicago]

That looks positive to me!

 

[Mom15]

I think so too. Usually I O the day after.
Forgive me if already ask you, do you have any appointments/ scan scheduled yet?

Yeah it's funny with DS it took 9months which for me meant 6 cycles and only 3-4 were timed right. So I always say it that way, because I don't feel it's fair to those who took 9+ cycles of well timed bd'ing to conceive if that makes sense.
I will also test at 9dpo which should be the 17th. Only reason I'm testing that early, the 17th is my birthday

 

[MrsKChicago]

That's my brother's birthday, too. Hoping for a BFP!

My first appointment is on the 26th, I think? Whatever the Thursday is that week, I have a terrible memory for dates. My midwives don't do scans there in the office and generally don't do them without a reason, so since I'm clear on my dates it's unlikely I'll get one before the NT scan. Then I'll probably get a private one to check the sex again - the tech I kept getting last time didn't like to tell the sex because she says it's unreliable, but the private scan is earlier and only about $60.

Yip OPK looks pos to me! So chuffed you are O'ing early. I O'd on CD19 everytime before DD and post DD it is all over the place and even as late as CD35! It's so frustrating. This month was CD27 so I was even quite chuffed about that lol. Good luck catching that egg x

 

[Mom15]

MrsK - $60 sounds great. I think my ObGyn charged over $400 for one.

Tess - are you taking any supplements etc. to help with regulating your cycle?

Yip I started taking supplements this cycle so I'm thinking they have helped move my O day to CD27 as opposed to CD35 so hopefully next month it'll be even earlier. I've spoken to my dr about all of this but as I said, they've done tests n apparently everything is working fine so they are sort of fobbing me off now as if I'm just being paranoid x

 

[fxmummyduck]

Tess what supplements do you take?
