@delilah7 I feel pleased that we DTD only 4 days ago (given our track record of hardly ever) but I don't think it counts when the jizz lands on his leg!! Haha.

Get on it, I feel quite horny tonight haha.

@crossfitgirl Ahhh me too!
I only have nieces and a nephew on my other halfs side so I wouldn't be able to do that but cute idea!
It's got to be our turn this month surely!?!?! Fingers crossed!

Oh my goodness @Delilah7!! You need to get on it! 😂 It's been 7 days for me but that's partly AF's fault.

I haven't done the deed since the 23rd!!! My god. My noonie is going to be as tight as a ducks arse if I get it on tonight 😂😂😂

Omg @essjayycee I totally think those things too! For me it would be getting our niece and nephew t-shirts saying best cousin ever and seeing my sister and mum in laws faces when they open them!
My parents would probably just get a Christmas card saying to grandma and grandad!

Ahhh I so want it to be real right now x

sunshine1987 · 07/10/2018 17:36

@crossfitgirl about 28/30 days long. I ovulate around day 18/20 and then 10 day lutheal phase x

EssJayyCee · 07/10/2018 16:56

@Peoniesformissannersly just stop taking tests. Try not to get too worked up over it. Keep going your days as normal until next cycle should begin. I know it's hard to just forget about it. But you'll only stress yourself out and if you are pregnant it won't be doing any favours to little bean. Then test on or near when next cycle should be due. If it doesn't come then go to the doctors. Xxx

PeoniesforMissAnnersley · 07/10/2018 15:47

Still no AF here Confused I can’t afford to keep taking tests! I’ve never missed a period before in my life either. Wish it would come so I can start again tbh.

EssJayyCee · 07/10/2018 15:33

@crossfitgirl Wouldn't it just!
I want to get little vests saying "I love you Nanny and grandad" on for my mum and dad and an auntie one for my sister! Just hoping for a BFP this month or next!

Crossfitgirl · 07/10/2018 15:29

@sunshine1987 how long is your cycle? If you know you ov late it'll be fine. I ovulate around cd17 and I always feel like it's ages after AF that we start DTD.

Totally wanna do an Xmas pregnancy announcement too.

It would be perfect!

I'm cd2, quite heavy AF still, but...
.. doctors orders... DTD every 2-3 days even on AF! What are my chances later tonight I wonder... hehe. My DH doesn't give a shit when I'm on usually haha x

@RobynC19 Would be great if things worked like that! Hopefully he is right and sent his best swimmers in to do the job!

EssJayyCee · 07/10/2018 15:02

@Minniecat2406 Aww congratulations! That fills me with confidence!
I feel so happy when people tell me they are pregnant! I get so excited for them!
I can't wait for it to be my turn!

I'm hoping to fall pregnant before Christmas so I can reveal it as part of my families Christmas present!

RobynC19 · 07/10/2018 15:00

Deed done lol husband is feeling very sure if him self apparently that's the one lol I wish it worked like that x

EssJayyCee · 07/10/2018 14:59

Thanks for replying @crossfitgirl @delilah7 and @katbecool It just came to me last night about them being shorter etc and had a bit of a panic about it. I'm glad it seems normal and is across the board for you ladies.

I'm not complaining because 7 days bleeding was a pain in the bum! With them being shorter it means DTD can commence sooner! Grin

minniecat2406 · 07/10/2018 14:58

@EssJayyCee I had exactly the same as you, exactly. Got BFP after 3 months and 16 week apt tomorrow xx

sunshine1987 · 07/10/2018 14:50

@delilah7 yeah I can tell by cm but also opk’s and temp both confirm when I do. It’s always around day 18 to 20 so I always think starting on cd10 is giving me a good shout at it xx

@sunshine1987 you know your body hun. Do you see any differences with CM etc that show when you're most fertile? Xx

OP posts:
ValidUser · 07/10/2018 14:46

This TWW is easier. Just not expecting it this time.

AF still will be disappointing, but I'm far calmer.

sunshine1987 · 07/10/2018 14:46

@delilah7 same hun, just going to keep on as I am. They fell pregnant first month but when you get to 5/6 months in every other day every month is just too much lol 🙈 xx

@sunshine1987 it's different for everyone hun. I always said CD10 I'll start if I don't have sex before xx

sunshine1987 · 07/10/2018 14:03

Hey all, hope you’re all having good weekends. CD11 so coming into FW so getting on it. Went out with my girls last night and they said I’m starting too late in the month and should be starting from straight after my period so feeling a bit deflated that I’m not doing enough 🤷🏻‍♀️ meh

Abzi91 · 07/10/2018 13:42

@CookieWaffle @Delilah7 I've been using Flo and Clue to keep track of my cycle because my periods were always quite irregular (until last 3-4 months where they've been bang on 35 day cycle..)
Used that and CM changes for this month. Hopefully I won't need to worry about next month, but if AF shows up I may have to rethink!
Thanks for the welcome Smile

@RobynC19 hi again lovely x x

@Teachermummy83 enjoy your time away 😘

@PeoniesforMissAnnersley welcome 😘

@EssJayyCee I was on Gederal and defo see a change that mine get lighter quickly but I didn't have any problem falling pregnant in July.. as you know MC but x x

@Abzi91 welcome! I didn't rely on OPKS and got pregnant by my Flo App, noticing my CM changes and ovulation pain x x

OP posts:
CookieWaffle · 07/10/2018 13:17

@RobynC19 yep that first ones a positive :)

Hey @Abzi91 yep OPKs are good if you can catch your surge, although they don't tell you if you ovulated. Taking temp everyday does though :)
