7dpo buddies?

We're TTC cycle 9 with nothing to show for it except a CP on cycle 3. For the first time I've had brown EWCM at 5/6dpo (implantation bleeding??). Having some one sided pain now but trying not to read in to it as I've had every single pregnancy symptom possible in the last 9 months and none of them meant anything. I have read through countless MN threads going back years and years and seen plenty of lucky threads where eventually everyone got their BFP. I told myself I wasn't going to buy anymore tests and would wait until AF does or doesn't show but caved today and ordered some easy at homes which should get here in the next couple of days. I've been super good at not obsessing about TTC for at least 6 weeks but it has a way of creeping back in to your thoughts. Any other cycle buddies out there?

Hey! Ttc third baby, think I ovulated 23rd! Not sure if that makes me 6 or 7dpo? DTD 21st, 22ns and 23rd Lot of pressure on this cycle as husband has said this is the last 😭 I have pcos and have recently lost 6 stone, he has varicocele and hydrocele, our chances aren't great but no one gets how much it is affecting my mood. My dd is 5 and ds 7,
ds took 18 months and dd took 8 months, so not hopeful

Aww why would this one need to be the last cycle? Everything crossed for you this month. Which cycle are you on at the moment?
As far as I'm aware we're both healthy, I have no idea why it's taking us so long. It's so frustrating to have to wait a year before getting any answers. I think I'm 8dpo today. Also congratulations on the weight loss that's a huge achievement!

he said our age gaps are getting to big :( but it's a big issue atm!
that's good that you're both healthy! This really could be your month, are you tracking ovulation? Honestly wouldn't wish ttc on anyone, especially when you have friends/family that fall pregnant so easily. Thanks so much!

Aww well there's a 10 year age gap between me and one of my siblings and we all got on well growing up and we're all close as adults. Sometimes a bigger gap is better as there's a lot less fighting. You'd think my siblings that were closer in age were practicing for an MMA tournament most days haha.
