Haha

@boodles101 make sure to keep your bum raised after... give your DP/DH a good laugh to 😂

boodles101 · 24/12/2018 14:37

@HJWT thanks, always hard with an opk but good timing having a few days off work now to get busy dtd!

HJWT · 24/12/2018 13:55

@boodles101 defo looks positive 😜

boodles101 · 24/12/2018 13:49

How's everyone getting on?
Cd12 for me and think my OPK is positive. What do you think? I'm having a few twinges every now and then - never had ovulation pains before but think that must be what I'm feeling.

Anyone TTC after Christmas? :)

@HJWT that's interesting! Yeah I was told fertility would return immediately when I had it out but no luck at all so far. Hopefully January will be the month!

HJWT · 19/12/2018 20:04

@KatnissKringle I think the implant these last 2-3 year have been different with my first implant I had no problems got it removed and fell pregnant, this time around I had so many hormone problems they thought I had PCOS!!! And Iv had it removed and feel so exhausted and sick because my hormones levels must be dropping drastically! X

ernjas · 19/12/2018 19:36

Should be ovulating twice in January. AF is due on Jan 19th so shall be TTC after that if all goes well!

abcriskringle · 19/12/2018 19:14

Hoping to conceive in January here! It was our original ttc starting month but then had my implant out at the end of June after a change of heart. 6 months later and still no luck even though DS was conceived first try!!! Fingers crossed it's a lucky month for everyone!

Butterfliesandroses · 19/12/2018 19:11

Good luck with your first cycle @boodles101

Butterfliesandroses · 19/12/2018 19:09

@BlueJay1 sorry to hear you didn't get your BFP for Christmas, enjoy all the naughties while you can!
Apparently I didn't have the patience to wait until January so we ended up BDing on cd10 and cd13. Now on cd17 but I have irregular cycles and have no idea when I actually ovulate so figure that despite my impatience at least this month could be a practice round even if we weren't successful!

LanieM87 · 19/12/2018 11:08

I think I may be ovulating which is fab news, I’m on CD 24 according to natural cycles. So I’m hoping that AF arrives in the next couple of weeks and I can start to track properly! Coming off contraception is a pain!

HJWT · 19/12/2018 07:30

@BlueJay1 sorry no BFP for you! But hopefully we will all get a BFP to welcome the new year! Wink enjoy Christmas Wine

Iv had my implant removed so just waiting for AF!!

boodles101 · 19/12/2018 07:14

I'm feeling excited. My AF turned up the day after my last post, I'm now on CD7 and my fertile week will be between Xmas and new year. So this is cycle 1 for #2. I'm excited and relieved that it's finally time, I've been waiting nearly all year to start ttc.

Sorry you didn't get you Xmas bfp bluejay1 think of all the lovely things you can enjoy over Xmas - alcohol, patè etc

BlueJay1 · 18/12/2018 22:39

Continuing our TTC journey into the new year.
6th cycle. Sadly didn't get a Christmas BFP, let's hope for a New Years one instead. Good luck everyone 😊

HJWT · 18/12/2018 22:27

How's everyone feelings a week till Christmas Blush

boodles101 · 12/12/2018 17:57

LanieM87 I know, I've never wished to get my period before! I was lucky when ttc #1 that it returned bang on cd28 and was regular from then on, so I've been hoping for the same again.

LanieM87 · 12/12/2018 17:40

@boodles101 I have just come off the mini pill in anticipation of TTC next year, I’m currently CD17, only had my withdrawal last week, so I think I’ll be around CD30 before my period appears. Don’t think I’ve ovulated either.
I’ve never spent so much time thinking about my period before 😂

boodles101 · 12/12/2018 16:56

Anyone here recently stopped their pill ready to ttc? I'm on CD 30 waiting for my first period to return and I'm wondering how others are doing. I have a feeling I may have ovuated on the 1st Dec so AF could be a few days away. Or it could be months away!! I'm excited and anxious to get started!

HJWT · 06/12/2018 09:23

@ernjas welcome ! Pull up a seat 🤭😄 xx

ernjas · 05/12/2018 22:13

also planning to TTC in January Smile

NextAdventure · 05/12/2018 22:11

Thanks @HJWT !
Will do xx

HJWT · 05/12/2018 21:33

@NextAdventure something my husband lives by! What will be will be Smile Good luck also keeps us all updated xx

NextAdventure · 05/12/2018 20:54

Nice to feel understood:) I think I’ll just put those thoughts away in a tidy box and forget about them. Far too much to get in a flap about! Good luck for TTC Smile
What will be will be. Stay healthy, take the vitamins. That much we can control x
