Hi, just wanted to get to know more women who are TTC:)

I'm trying to keep it quiet and just between me and my OT until we get a positive but its difficult when I feel like it might never happen (silly I know)

This is my first time TTC and I am 2 months in and already getting frustrated.

Ive seen a few posts saying you are using an app to know when to test etc.

Can anyone recommend the best ovulation apps to use?

Thanks

LoopyCat didn't snog me til 11dpo last time, the same day I had spotting so I'm safe from the furball for a few days yet Xmas Wink

LoopyLa · 20/12/2014 20:48

Oh yes ditzzy, I forgot my cat tried to snog me last month!! I shall have to check back and see what dpo that was - I wonder if she'll try it again? Xmas Hmm

ditzzy · 20/12/2014 20:25

I've had some really quite sharpish cramps all right sided today. If the ewcm hadn't dried up a week ago I'd be convinced I was feeling ovulation!

Symptoms much the same as last month so I'm feeling cautiously hopeful. I have completely unwarranted constipation, general queasiness and I was utterly unable to sleep last night (despite being overall exhausted) - all which happened identically at 5 ish dpo last month. Apparently when I do sleep I sleep talk continuously at the mo, so I guess there's some vivid dreaming even if I don't remember it!!

The only thing currently missing is the cat, but I think it was a few days later than this that he started stalking me Grin

MrsCrumbtious · 20/12/2014 20:03

Currently 3dpo and trying not to be the crazy symptom spotting lady! But feeling tired, had some really odd cramps and my nipples feel like they could cut glass lol! Xx

LoopyLa · 20/12/2014 19:52

Hmmm, weird stuff going on with my downstairs at the mo - lots of niggles the last 2 days. Sometimes left, sometimes right - why, why not just one side? Feels odd. I'm only 5dpo but this is an estimation, I could anywhere between 5-8dpo Confused

Strange...

Anyone got some odd symptoms? I'm still experiencing vivid dreams, I'm clueless as to what they mean! Shock

LoopyLa · 20/12/2014 14:26

Purplelily how are you doing?

LoopyLa · 20/12/2014 14:25

Good luck toohard, I've heard great things about acupuncture so let us know how it goes!

Amyyy27 · 20/12/2014 13:52

Hi ladies, congrats on the BFPs!

So we had mc last week of October, wtf cycle last month so first 'proper' cycle and I'm currently 6dpo. Early days I know but had some symptoms, very gassy and bloated from 3dpo together with twinges and little cramps the same as I had when pregnant, and nausea started yesterday but hasn't stopped! I'm trying not to get my hopes up but can't be helped!! I am so inpatient I wish I could find out like right now!! Lol. I'm gunna test on Christmas eve at 10dpo so Fx! !

toohardtothinkofaname · 20/12/2014 08:42

CD24 & no OV yet! Off for acupuncture this morning so hoping for something to happen within the week Grin

ditzzy · 19/12/2014 17:32

dpo 4 - someone please whack me (gently) over the head and tell me all symptoms are currently imaginary only...

1Strawberry · 19/12/2014 14:39

Cozza congrats! Ok now I know what a cp is I think I might have had one a couple of months ago - thought it was an evaporation line but it was thick and easy to see and I did feel quite preg. Yes hoping for some Christmassy/new year good news on the thread!

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 19/12/2014 13:16

Lots of creamy cm here. Other than that absolutely nothing to report Smile

LoopyLa · 19/12/2014 06:31

Oh and gargle warm salt water for those ulcers, tastes gross but does the trick Xmas Shock

LoopyLa · 19/12/2014 06:13

Hi deeply Smile

I'm having really vivid dreams again (this happened last time). They're not nightmares as such but they aren't pleasant & I'm always glad to wake up afterwards. Not baby related either Hmm

Purplelily that really sucks Sad So unfair that you want to be winding down at this time of year & you're trying to race to the finish line. Really, really hope you're able to get things done so you can rest a bit. At 2dpo, I personally would be taking nurofen and/or codeine for that sciatic pain. I've had sciatica twice, please don't underestimate how painful it can get - and I don't think it can get better by itself either. If your egg is fertilised it'll be another 4 days before it implants yet. Hope you're ok x

Purplelilly · 19/12/2014 01:51

Cozza I see the second line!! Congratulations! I hope everything goes well for you :D

deeplybaffled · 19/12/2014 00:57

Deeply baffled, 37, ttc1, cycle 6, 1 CP in September, about 5-6 dpo and prob going to test Christmas ish time.
First time trying opks so all feels a bit different and trying not to get tooooo obsessive, honest...

Purplelilly · 18/12/2014 22:31

I'm currently 2dpo according to Fertility Friend.
I've a really bad cold, 4 very deep mouth ulcers, feeling like I can barely move from exhaustion, and sciatic pain down both legs.
I've an impossible work load that means I'll be doing a few all-nighters in the run up to Christmas and I'm dreading Christmas anyway as it is a very hard time of year for me, so I'm really focusing on pregnancy related stuff this month to get me through.

I really hope that we all get our Christmas/New Year BFP's. How magic would it be to start the year with being pregnant!!!!!!!! :D

Cozza123 · 18/12/2014 21:02

Thanks glad it's not just me then that can see it. 10dpo loopy so still very early days

LoopyLa · 18/12/2014 20:50

What dpo are you cozza?

LoopyLa · 18/12/2014 20:50

I see two too!! Congrats! Grin

Boyle1884 · 18/12/2014 20:42

I see two cozza... Congratulations!!!!

Cozza123 · 18/12/2014 20:19

I've been naughty and tested early please someone tell me they see two lines

2ww :( any buddies?
LoopyLa · 18/12/2014 20:03

Ah bollucks, my bloody post didn't work! Angry

Sorry Beautician, yes it can be a sign, fx Smile

I'm exhausted, emotional & very grumpy. A sure sign of AF but also I've had that before pregnancy too helpful

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 18/12/2014 19:27

Does anyone know if increased cm is a symptom haha. I'm clutching at straws as its the only 'symptom' I have Hmm
