Conception

Curious...What CD did you conceive? Constant negatives are ruining my life.

Hi all,

I posted last month too...I was so sure it was our month. But apparently not. My body just likes to play tricks on me, clearly. (Short version-day late/VERY light bleeding/no usual symptoms/4 wasted pee sticks/convinced...BFN. 4 times).

So, this month I'm hoping my 'no pressure approach' to getting my BFP might actually work. My (very frustrated) other half and I DTD on CD11/12 (Early morning. Veeeeeery early) then he left the city for 6 weeks with work. I had a positive OPK on CD 14 (I forgot to test CD13) and then a negative CD15. I had O type cramps CD14. is it possible to get a positive on ovulation day-google keeps giving me different answers (said the girl who is attempting a 'no pressure' approach).

Am I out this month? I'm not buying countless tests. I am trying not to symptom check. And I'm planning on not being pregnant for at least 6 weeks (plus creating time for my so longed for number 2). But I am curious...

Has anyone out there had a BFP with similar time frames from DTD to ovulation? 6 weeks is a long time to go with no second line and no time to try again. I feel like this is actually taking over my whole life. And every month a little bit of me just gives up. Someone give me some hope :(

hey.

the month i got my positive was:
dtd:
CD 7
CD10
CD12

ovulation pains on CD14/15

I though i was out because i was violently ill from CD13-CD19 (Viral infection) and thought didn't DTD enough.

you definitely still have a chance this month

hope you get you BPF soon

Have you tried temperature tracking to pinpoint ovulation day?

Ah, thank you for replying. That gives me hope.
Were you trying for long before your BFP?

I think I was feeling particularly fed up when I posted the message. My life is not ruined. I have a beautiful daughter who I’m very lucky to have. I’m just frustrated with not having it easy this time round x

I tried tracking my temperature-but not for about 6 months. I had quite a busy work life then so wasn’t very good if I’m honest. I thought I had my cycle down to a tee. Maybe I’m just completely out? It’s so demotivating getting nowhere! X

DC2- sex cd 13&14, ov somewhere in between.

@Wellthisunexpected you can say no, but can I be really cheeky and ask the sex of your DC? I want to see if the theory of dtd before ovulation more likely to be a girl and at the time then more likely a boy, is true 😊 x

First was a boy, don't know the sex of this one yet! But I'm pretty certain it's another boy.

Well this gives me hope! I’m still sticking to what I said and not planning on testing until AF is late. I’m not even googling symptoms as much as I normally do (you ever feel like you’ve read a web page a hundred times already?!🙈) and I’m just being very calm and patient...for now. Your messages give me hope. Thank you ladies xx
