TTC October anyone want to join 😊

@Rightnow1245 I'm doing every other day too, I hope it's enough!
I plan on doing every day for a few days when the ovulation tests give me a smiley face

Rightnow1245 - sadly I’m back to CD1 today, it was af on the way. Fingers crossed for you . Am going to get myself some Ovulation strips this month to support the temping and see if that helps!

@PaulHollywoodsSexGut It's gotta be fine. I know so many women who were out doing god knows what in their TWW because they had no idea they were up the duff. If you were born in the 80's and before chances are your mum smoked and drank throughout pregnancy as they had no idea it was so bad.

They are the meds you’re 100% not supposed to take when pregnant and I’m a bit twitchy to tell the truth but I’m going to have to think positive else...what’s the point?

I did test on CD30 out of a 32 day cycle and it came back BFN.

Two days and many tests later; BFP. Mental.

@PaulHollywoodsSexGut wow congrats, that's incredible. Lol were you being sarcastic about the meds or are those supposed to help?

So after necking several lemsip, much Pepto bismol, and also going for the hat trick by using antihistamines too yesterday evening I got my BFP.

Thunderstruck doesn’t cover it. Desperately hoping to get through the first 12 weeks successfully as this hasn’t been the case in the past.

Happily stunned.

Hey ! This is our first month ttc #3! Happened first month with #2 so hoping it'll happen quickly again this time . I got my positive opk today so have everything crossed for a bfp in a few weeks time ! Baby dust to all 😁

Hi @rightnow, CD11 here, usually ovulate on CD's 16-17 so I'm looking to inseminate next weekend with our donor. So count me in!

Hi everyone!
I'm 26, TTC my first! Cycle 3 Day 3!
I have convinced myself I can't have children because of previous irregular cycles. But my fingers are crossed every month! Two new babies in the family are making me so desperate for my own little bundle!

Good luck everyone! Xxx

@MrsMcNtobe apparently you should only start counting when it's bright red and enough to fill a pad/tampon.
Last month I had about 7 days of dark brown (old) blood before the red, and counted it as my period 😖 so must have missed ovulation completely!!
There's so much to learn with this baby making stuff 😂

@bunhead34 I think I’ve been doing it wrong too! I usually have one day just spotting/really light then a few days normal bleeding and the last day is really light. Should I be counting from the first day of real bleeding?

@Rightnow1245 to be honest I think it usually drops gradually, not in such a leap then I get af or I get af and then it drops. I reckon I ovd when the app says as I had a small amount of pain. Ive has some cramps and then had some spotting a couple of days ago, pink and then brown, just when I wiped, nothing today so far though. App says AF due Tuesday and the app is usually accurate, but I’m still getting some cramping. Who knows! Everything is heightened when you want positive hpt. What cd are you on now?

Can I join too?

I'm using ovulation sticks,but not expecting to ovulate until next week. Just want to make sure I don't miss it!
I've been doing my maths wrong the last couple of months as didn't realise you start counting the 1st day of period when it's bright red, not before!

I'm using the clue app to track, it seems to do the Job!

Anyway, I seem to have the beginning of cystitis so hoping to get rid of that quickly 🙄 I don't want to DTD with it, but don't want to miss another month!

I'm currently in my tww and making myself a bit crazy. Never been like this before 😂

I'm using Ovia to track and according to the app my predicted period should be starting next Saturday, making it a 30 day cycle. Mine are usually 28-30 so I figured I'd try taking one of those early detection tests. Not a good idea haha.

It was BFN and I'm feeling very discouraged, but trying to tell myself it's probably way too early to tell.

Good luck to everyone! 😊😊

Hey! I’m new to all this! I recently had a loss after finding out at 19 weeks my baby had a rare case of spinal bifida which meant he probably wouldn’t survive out of birth. That was my first baby, we said goodbye to him on the 18th July this summer.

Im now TTC again and feeling hopeful that this can happen for us! We only tried for 3 months and that was without really monitoring ovulation or anything so we were very lucky!

I’m now on cycle 2..6dpo and dying to test!! I’m just going with the app Flo and trying to see signs in my body eg CM, cramping so we will see what happens.

The two weeks wait is the worst!

Sorry for rambling on.. thought this would make the 2 weeks wait a bit more bearable!

I think I’m out . I’m 12dpo and had a huge big temp drop this morning (36.83 to 36.53) it’s still above my cover line but as I’m expecting AF at start of the next week think this cycle is over. Silly to get hopes up on first cycle when is 15yrs since I had my DS!

@Rightnow1245 I used CB digi OPKs on cycle one and got a static smiley on the 2nd day of using them. On cycle 2, the monitor stopped working so I didn't bother. I do have a new box, but for whatever reason on Wednesday (CD10) I decided not to use them. I usually get EWCM in my fertility window so was planning to use that as an indicator. I haven't noticed much yet though, so I don't think I'm quite there yet.

I like Clue too - I like the simplicity. I also have Ovia and Glow!

I'm feeling a bit low today - two of my colleagues are pregnant and I'm finding that particularly hard today. I don't know why!

Good luck catching your positive OPK, and hope you get a private moment to dtd!!

@Babycakes1989 I’m using Ovia to track my period and ovulation, I used flo before and whilst pregnant with my angel but it brings back memories so had to change to a new app. Both were good but you need to log your info for them to be more accurate.
Welcome to everyone wishing you all the very best of luck.

Can I join please?

I think I ovulated yesterday or today. The TWW is going to be so hard! I already want to test.

Fingers crossed this month is a lucky one for us all.
