(...or poke me in the right direction of an existing one?)

We've been fannying around ttc#2 for a while now, and I'm starting to feel deflated Sad

What do you think? Have you tried it? Doing it? Can we even do that much shagging? Blush

Failing that, can you kick me up the arse to cheer me up? Grin

Hello Nevlet & Bugmuncher! BrewCake
I'm feeling positive that at least some of us will have something good to report back soon ~positive woo-mby vibes~ (this could get irritating)

Pardon & Robbins ooh this is exciting! Wishing you lots of energy Wink I chucked out all my OPKs too, so bought a huge pack of them. Hundreds. I was trying the sods law thing - we won't need them soon.

I'm on day 16 now... Expecting a positive OPK on Wednesday :)

Pardonmyfrench85 · 19/10/2015 16:22

Still waiting on my opks to arrive!! Cd12.... In past months (before I threw the opks away, too stressful lol) I wasn't getting positives until about day 14

I'm not trying SMEP yet but am planning on following it in December/Jan so interested to hear how all of you get on!

Nevlet · 19/10/2015 15:22

I am trying this plan alongside using the clearblue fertility monitor. Currently cd35 and peak OPK yesterday (cycles mad still post pill) so starting both next cycle whenever that comes!

Ooh! I totally forgot about this post when it looked like no-one was going to come and SMEP with me Blush

Hello fellow smeppers loki pardon robbins CakeBrew

I am currently only on CD4 but will begin OPKs at CD8 rather than 10 as I had a surprise early last month (caught it at midnight, worst sex ever ensued!) pardon I'm not sure about timing, but as we're both shift workers, midnight sex is pretty much all we get.
I am also trying a bit of experimental ...ahem... positive thinking. I decided that "Dont get your hopes up, you're probably not pregnant" every month wasn't helping...

You're all well ahead of me so fingers xd you're already preggers Wink

Me too ! This is my 4th cycle and 1st cycle of trying this plan, currently on day 14 :)

Pardonmyfrench85 · 17/10/2015 12:12

Me!! I'm
Trying it this
Month only on day 10.... Have u to dtd that a similar time each day??

Loki17 · 17/10/2015 12:03

*I meant when af arrived THIS month!

Loki17 · 17/10/2015 12:02

I will join you! I'm also ttc number 2! I looked at this plan when af arrived next month and I'm going to do something similar but I'm not using opks as I did last month and I ended up obsessing. Instead, I'm going to try to ensure we dtd every other day until cd 12. Then dtd every day until cd 19. I'm going to try a variation of dtd in the evening and in the morning because I'm pretty sure that when we conceived dd it was because of a morning session. I'm on cd8. So we started today with the bding!
