TTC first baby... mega thread!

@cupcakesandglitter maybe. Just no point trying if it's not for fun now etc. Just feel really unwell.

@Crossfitgirl my EWCM is normally for about 2 day's and I normally get my ovulation pain then too. I have had it this month where I thought I saw some after aswell.... I had the creamy watery not long after my ovulation. Xx

Struggling to catch up on this thread so sorry if I've missed anything. Every time I check it's a few pages on!

@Crossfitgirl I usually just tell my OH when my 5 fertile days are and let him choose, which was working OK. We'd get maybe a couple of gos a month. But after the 2 CPs the past 2 months this month he's been more determined to make this work. He asked me for specific dates, so I showed him the chart and said Sat, Mon and weds would be best, and here we are, one more to go!

@Crossfitgirl @poodlepip I agree - it's easy to see DTD as purely baby making, and actually I want to enjoy having sex with DH too. I know I'm disappointed that AF hit, but I'd rather enjoy the sex we've had this month than worry we didn't do something right! It's too easy for us to put pressure on ourselves.

Oh @poodlepip 😂😂 you do make me laugh, we need those swimmers!!!!

@cupcakesandglitter yeah... this is definitely tmi but I suggested scooping it in but he didn't think that was a romantic enough way to make a child!!

@Crossfitgirl we put ourselves under lots of pressure but a few times around ovulation should be plenty right. Perhaps the power of JT will help everything along!

Also @Crossfitgirl I'd agree, if you aren't feeling it then your body maybe telling you something. Don't rush it and just DTD when you feel like it x

@Crossfitgirl JT? I'm so jel 😭

@poodlepip omg 😂😂😂 that's so funny! The lengths we have to go to 😂 x

Hi guys
I'd like to tag along too please!
TTC #1 implant removed July.

Totally empathise with timing difficulties! I'm not sure about my cycle post implant but think 7dpo. DH caught on quickly to my keenness for action when had a positive opk haha.

He found it quite comical and was tired from a run and laughing at my attempt to seduce him. I was totally being unreasonable when I got upset because he had an early spillage in excitement that would not result in a baby haha!

Also @Delilah7 sorry I forgot to even ask, what's up? Are you okay? X

Oh @Delilah7 😩 maybe try tomorrow? 😏

Thought I'd share too now that I've caught up!
I have to admit it's been pretty poor this month, only a couple of times in the fertile window and not much since but we don't usually have sex very often anyway! But after seeing everyone else's, I think I have some catching up to do!! Here's to next cycle!!

@cupcakesandglitter I'm out tonight I feel rough as asssssss 😂😂😂

@Patapouf glad it's not just me 😂

@Crossfitgirl just try and seduce him first I think 😂 if it doesn't work, maybe then you should have the chat and tell him you only have certain days to DTD? X

@Delilah7 definitely!! @RobynC19 you've set the record, I'm putting it on DH tonight 😂😂 Go you!!

I'm sorry I've been MIA today, went out for my DH friends 30th birthday. I'm gonna have a catch up on the threat either tonight or tomorrow and have a chat with you! Hope everyone is good!

Quick update on me... 13DPO. AF due tomorrow, been having cramps last few days which is odd for me, usually cramps arrive with AF and not before but who knows?! Guess we'll find out tomorrow if it's gonna arrive! Love to all! 💜

Well time for an early night me thinks 😉

@stormtrooperjulian well done!! Looks good to me x

I don’t mind sharing.... we were aiming for every two days until I could work out when I was ovulating, as I wasn’t sure when that would be after coming off the implant so I wanted to make sure we caught it!

@gebs I'm sure it will! just make sure you input things as much as possible 😘😘

@Crossfitgirl we were are fairly regular before ttc, dh is loving all the action atm! I'm lucky that we have 9-5 office jobs and small commutes etc so we have a good work life balance. I'd say different positions are what keeps it interesting haha!

@Delilah7 I'm glad flo worked for you, I hope I have the same luck, I have a hormone imbalance too so I think the strips will make me stress even more about the whole thing as I'm only half working anyway 🙈

I’m happy to share crossfit, SMEP pales in comparison to robyns efforts.

SMEP:
CD8 💓
CD10 💓 💓
CD12 didn’t manage to see DH 😭 😂 hoping the extra from the day before counts
CD13 (today) 💓 ✅ on an OPK

In line with SMEP we have to BD tomorrow and Wednesday and then again on Friday. The positive OPK today wasn’t super strong. Last cycle I had two days of a mid-strength positive and the line didn’t get stronger. I’m working on the basis of ovulation on CD14-15 and that’s what the Clue app seems to think too.

@gebs bare in mind last month I got pregnant from only flo app, EWCM and ovulation pains!

@Crossfitgirl oh my god my chart this month has been pretty awful 😂 I've forgot to add some and forgot when I have done all so it's not as much as last months 😂😂😂

@RobynC19 girl you're in fire. You put me and @cupcakesandglitter to shame.

See mine below..... tbh I did most of my fertile window last month and it worked so... who knows 😂😂
