The craziness that is TTC after stopping the pill. On this thread we have 100 day cycles, do weeks of opks and send ovia into a fit with our ever changing fertile windows! Welcome.

It sounds really positive first do you think you will be able to wait until Thurs to test? Xx

I am more and more convinced I ovulated around 10 days ago now as i must be in my luteal phase to have breasts sore like this!

Think i dtd the day before so have a chance at least!

Just very sensitive nipples and boobs a bit sore. Only usually get sore boobs after ovulation...

CM is quite wet and sometimes even almost ewcm.

Keeping my FX for you First have you got any symptoms? X

I'm testing this coming thurs before i speak to dr

Cookie I would love to do that I can't test until the following week tho but FX for a belated valentines present for me! X

Ahh Cookie that would be great!! How amazing that would be. If im planning about May.. I'm hoping to do it on Fathers day cycle dependant!xx

Just wondering, is anyone else thinking of testing on or around Valentine's Day next sun? I'm being very cheesey but thinking it would be a lovely gift for DH if I got my bfp on that day! Would only be 11 dpo so might not be viable and would also be a miracle if AF isn't here yet due to my short luteal phase! Just a wee thought I had in my crazy TTC mind xx

No probs I've just spent far too many hours googling everything to do with TTC! I get sore nipples and EWCM at OV and AF two weeks later but everyone is different so you will get to know your own body xx

Thanks for the tip yvonne ☺ gona try Wednesday and Saturday ☺ and you get ewcm b4 you ov? Sorry just for the all the questions ya must think I'm some dope 😅😅 just haven't clue about all this was never talked or taught about it in my culture now I'm married I can do what I like 😅

Retail therapy is the answer to everything!!! You have a five day fertile window as although you egg only lives for up to 24hours sperm lives for up to five days to you could dtd Mon then OV Fri and still fall pregnant! I've read your best not to dtd too much as it can reduce the quality of the sperm so every 2-3 days is recommend xx

Hey girls was shopping all day am worn out bitta retail therapy sorted me out 😅
DH is will be here tomorrow so gona TTC but u know I'm not ovulate yet as only finished 2 days ago :P just for a bit of fun 😅 but next week fertile window do gona do it as much as I can especially before I ovulated
Quick question yano d way sperm lives inside you for 3-5 days if u dhd like 2 3 days b4 ov wud you Catch it or do ya have to dhd on d day you ov?

I'm full of cold so no chance of me DTD tonight just hoping Mon and Wed will have been enough x

I think I'm in the tww now too, just. Still going to dtd tonight and Sunday just in case as opk still positive today. Looks like lots of us will be testing around the same time - fx for you all !

Yeah I'm in the TWW now too Chapman wishing my life away once again! I wish I had lost my appetite coming off the pill!! It's just the same as always unfortunately! X

Poin bless you Hun I must admit I was dying Tuesday could not walk at all!! Bravo for us doing exercise! Good on you hope going with the flow relaxes you a bit and hopefully we shall see bfp soon! In answer to the pill no I ate and ate and ate like a pig I put on 8lb since stopping it in November I felt disgusting so trying to do something about it now before I fall pregnant and have no time haha!

cookie we are always here to re assure you doll! You've done amazing to dtd that much I'm always so tired after work!! X
yvonneAre you in your 2ww now?? I've just had itchy boobs and sore but seem to be disappearing now, felt a bit sick walking round asda before but I have been to fat camp! X

I don't even know what dpo I am so I'm going with the flow! Boobs aren't as sensitive now just always erect like I'm cold all the time which is never the case when I sleep in a dressing gown all the time haha! Xxx

Need to stop symptom spotting though!

Mine are more super sensitive than sore.

Chapman I'm good thank you. Not managed to shift it earlier - kinda just going with it for now. Had a sudden burst of energy last night and actually did exercise....super unusual for me 😂😂. Ache all over though today - exhausted, back sore and thighs hurt. I didn't even really go for it but so unfit I guess it's normal to feel like this! [Grin]

Random question... since stopping the pill has anyone's appetite decreased? I'm never hungry so not really eating a lot unless I force myself! Lots of varying advice online for this!

Haven't taken another OPK due to Wednesdays being negative and creamy cm is starting to appear as normal. Needing a wee a lot today so hoping it's not another UTI starting, and have a "wet" feeling. More stuff to log on Ovia!xx

I'm mega jealous of the sore nipples! Sore boobs/nipples seems to be one of the most talked about symptoms but I've yet to feel anything like that- I don't even get sore boobs when AF is due! Def a positive sign tho Mrs!! I've been feeling incredibly tired today, though I do suffer from pernicious anaemia so can feel tired regardless! Had a little ewcm again today which is why I felt the need to do another OPK. Oh it's going to be an incredibly long tww! Xx

We've all got sore nipples!

My nipples are really sore and a little EGCM but I always get that around OV! I felt nauseous both this afternoon and yesterday but I'm sure that's impossible so soon!!!!! I'm just driving myself crazy!!! Has anyone else had any signs xx

Thanks girls, what would i do without you all! We managed to dtd tues and last night too. All bases covered hopefully! Actually managed to use my CB digital there for peace of mind and it came up totally negative, tho urine was quite dilute. Hoping for the best! Have yous had any symptoms today? Xx

Cookie I think that is a negative too I've still been getting a line on my OPKs but just much duller than the positive on Wed! Xx

Cookie - that looks like a negative positive to me which mean you might still have a bit of LH in you but not enough to show positive. I havent even tested since tuesday as mine was a negative on tues and plus id get f**ked off if i was to poas and it showed positive now haha! it wont be in vein hun as sperm can live inside you for up to 5 days so even if youve dtd on mon you should be covered until yday/today hopefully!

i hope so about the itchy boob but not gonna hold my breathe dont want to get to carried away with symptom spotting xxx

Hi girls, happy Friday!! How are we all? Chapman & first they sound like very very positive signs! Itchy nipples are meant to be one of the earliest pregnancy symptoms. Hoping yous have caught! Yvonne keeping fx for you too!! Shan, sorry to hear you've been feeling down about things. It's a new cycle and a new month for you and DH to try. Your ov won't be too far away now.

Well I am mega confused now! Been using the cheap OPKs since i got my peak on CB (can't use CB again after getting the peak), just to check the whole fade out on the lines. I thought I ov'd on Tues but just got this result on my OPK today! What is going on?! It looks almost positive! We literally had a marathon of dtd over my supposed fertile window & will be gutted if it's all been in vain! Xx
