(Think) I ovulated on Sunday. DTD several times at the right times(I think!) so it’s just a case of waiting now... boy oh boy, I’m driving myself nuts!! DH has no idea when I ovulate(don’t think he wants to know as it puts the pressure on him) so I’m flying solo on the 2ww. Which is where you guys come in Grin
Anyone else in the same boat? Fancy talking each other down from THAT shelf in the supermarket??

Just thinking I got my lh surge on Saturday 14th October. That means I ovulated 12 - 36hrs later. So that would make me 8/9dpo not 10dpo. So maybe it's too early for me to test?? Clutching at straws here :) gotta keep hope alive Grin

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 10:38

Yeah thanks @Peanutty86 even if I don't conceive soon, il pop in on your new thread if you don't mind and see how things are going

Peanutty86 · 24/10/2017 10:36

@Gem173 I forgot them yesterday. So t worry about it too much, if you miss a day it won’t do any harm just set a reminder in your phone or something.

Ladies, I have prematurely opened a July 2018 Babies thread in the pregnancy section.

Let’s not abandon this thread, but hopefully we’ll all have to move over there very soon!!

@Gem173 I would say 1.5 cycles.
(I came off HBC in April, tracked temp and cm since then, started OPKs in September just to get a feel for it, had my +OPK and husband was away, decided to just go for it the next day. So there wasn’t really a chance they cycle, that’s why I’d say we were successful first cycle? Dunno! But we went full on; tracking, OPKs, conceive plus lube.... what can I say? It worked. Never in a million years wouldn’t thought it’ll happen so quickly.)

Fuck I just realised I keep forgetting to take my folic acid supplements :/

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 10:28

What cycle is everyone getting pregnant on? Sorrry if I've asked before, I can't remember. I know it's diff for everyone but would like to know :)

Gem173 · 24/10/2017 10:25

Yes @Gem173 do it tomorrow!!

Peanutty86 · 24/10/2017 10:13

@Somethininthewater we went out for a big family birthday dinner last night and I just kept putting the champagne and wine glass on my lips and pretended to swallow. Also pretended to try several of the SIL’s cocktails. Think the other SIL has clocked on it. And I know she will say I knew it! Husband hasn’t really noticed.... 😂

Got a couple if the girls coming round tonight and they’re bringing gin, prosecco etc... not sure how I’ll explain that I’m not drinking, as I was well up for it when I spoke to them yesterday!

I was going to do prime but I’m away so not really possible. There’s a boots in another village. That’s bit further away though. What a time to be in the middle of nowhere!!!

Peanutty86 · 24/10/2017 09:55

@lgh05 I think boots sell them but I’ve ordered them off amazon. Unbeatable price and next day delivery (I have prime though...)

I’ve no idea. The nearest village has a co-op and a chemist so I’m hoping they have them!
