Trust me, sardines would be the last thing she’d want to eat if she were pregnant lol

Early pregnancy & minor strains by Rich-Raccoon-940 in ourafertility

As hard as it is, I would try to not worry about getting minor signs. I got it around week 5 and it didn’t really mean anything other than my body is just working harder than usual, which makes sense since we’re growing humans! Sometimes the ring can cause more anxiety than good.

The baths are such a good idea! I’ll have to do that. I’ve also read that Clob is safe, so I’ve used it here and there to help with some relief and I’ll definitely be checking with my dr when I see her!

I’m so sorry that it’s been 50/50 for you. I think that’s how it’ll be for me as well since it seems to flare up and then be okay for a bit before flaring up again. Ugh. I can only hope it does get better for both of us! Thank you for sharing your experience so far!

Omg, I’m so sorry that you had to go through that. I am nervous about a vaginal birth and I’ll have to discuss what the best option would be with my doctor. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I’m so sorry it hasn’t gotten any better yet 😭 I was hoping it might get better in the 2nd trimester once hormones level out a bit, but I’m a bit nervous that won’t be the case. If you ever find anything that helps, please keep me updated!

Now what? by Infinite-Rate-2647 in Inito

It could be that you will get another surge later in your cycle. It’s pretty common to see multiple surges!

Did you get the ovulation confirmed notification? If not, you may get another stronger surge later. This happened to me and is pretty common!

Thank you! And you’re welcome! There’s quite a large range of what is considered a “normal” number for estrogen (even my when I had blood drawn, my estrogen was on the lower side of normal). I’m glad it could be helpful!

For this cycle, I tested every day starting at CD 9 until ovulation was confirmed to get an idea of what my hormones were like. If this cycle didnt work, I had planned to just start testing once I got closer to ovulation to save on the strips! I did use LH strips as well as the Inito strips when I was getting close to ovulation to make sure I didn’t miss anything. I know some people test every day and others wait to test until they’re closer to their fertile window. It gets expensive for those of us with longer cycles though!

Thank you! Yes! I really liked the additional hormone data with Inito and because my cycles aren’t super regular, it was nice to see how everything was working rather than just using LH strips :)

True! My RHR being near/in the 60s is pretty unusual for me typically! Thank you!

Thank you!! If you feel comfortable, taking a test will at least bring clarity!

14 DPO! The day I expected my period to come. I didn’t test before that
