March bus!

@ronniemipperton no, from what I've read, the sperm can be there in 5mins and then just sittin about chillin waitin on her ladyship to arrive 😂

That’s true but I think the sperm needs a bit of time to swim to the right place too? I think day of ov and day before is meant to be best, though if you’re not sure if you’ve oved yet then definitely won’t hurt to get on it 😜

Thanks for the reply @ronniemipperton
I think I'll BD again tonite too cos don't they say that from u get a positive OPK it could take up to 48 hours for the egg to reach the sperm?

Welcome everyone! @Broodyaf your timing sounds pretty spot on to me - timing matters more than frequency. Good luck!

I'm in!
Hi to @Peachyx2505 from the February thread!!

I ovulated yday and only DTD yday And day before. I'm telling myself it's not enough but the amount of cycles over the last 24failed cycles that I have bombarded my egg with swimmers and still didn't work I'm hoping I still have a chance this month!

Please may I hop on the March bus with all of you lovely ladies. AF rocked up here today, here's to March BFPs and Christmas babies 🙏🏻

Not after ovulation but I had it for about 6 months straight of my pregnancy. Bad times! But fingers crossed it’s a good (though annoying!) sign

Currently 2dpo. A little bit gross but has anyone else developed thrush straight after ovulation? I never usually get it. Dr Google tells me this may be hormone related.... 🤞🏼

@ronniemipperton sorry for your loss too!
It's horrendous but all you can literally do is keep on trying! I'm less neurotic this time around which can only be a good thing 🤷🏼‍♀️

@barnburntdown it depends which opk you used...I know the clear blue ones (with the taunting flashing face) use your first test as a baseline so even if you were peak fertile period it would be an empty circle- that's why you have to start to early in the cycle

Hello all. Think am 1 or 2 dpo.

Question re digital opks. Didn't use opks this month but assumed I'd be ovulating on day 12 as usual. Curiosity got the better & took an opk yesterday (cd12) at 6pm and it showed low fertility. Now I'm thinking if it would be at all possible if I had ovulated 12 hours earlier than that it could show up as a negative opk then 12 hours later ? Only ask as I dtd Sunday morning at 1am. ...

Other than that only did twice in the 6 days preceding. So I have zero hopes this time round. It only takes one swimmer.. but we didn't dtd enough. Sigh.

I’m aiming for second week of March to test if AF hasn’t turned up, too 👍

Hello everyone who has joined, wishing you all the best of luck.

For me I'm post O, cervix is low and firm. So it's just a waiting game now for me. I've decided not to test or wee on anything because I don't know how many dpo I am so it will just lead to neurotic behaviour 😂.

I'll test second weekend of March if no AF by then. I have also decided no more cheap dip sticks because the evaps are intolerable, so I'll just purchase a clear blue digital. But only one! They are too expensive to waste!! 🙈

Can I hop on please? Had diarthermy on my cervix in Jan followed by AF in Feb so hopefully this month is it.
So far, my DP and I have been TTC since Sept 18 and had a mc in November at around 7 weeks. On every vitamin going and on THE biggest healthkick. Good luck to everyone else on this bus 😊

Finally got around to dtd yesterday on CD9! Little one is poorly so I was up three times in the night and was definitely questioning my sanity in ttc#2... 😱 He’s napping now so will enjoy perusing the photos of the Oscar outfits

May I join please! ✋🏼

Temp charts, opks, vitamins and gel - we’ve gone for it all this month!

Now 1dpo and waiting....

🤞🏼 for all

(...Although I reckon it's headline news everywhere so hard to avoid!)

@CoachBombay glad you're feeling better, what a scare, glad all is ok.

Anyone else well up watching a certain big Oscars acceptance speech (no spoilers in case anyone will be saving it to watch later...)

Thanks *Ronnie" I'm ok, I just didn't know what the pain was. I was concerned I had an ectopic if I'm honest and for some random weird hpt's weren't coming up positive.

But thank goodness all fine(ISH) been given some co-codamol to ease the pain. Going to have a cheeky glass of gin later and watch the Oscars eating Cadbury chocolate fingers I found left over in the cupboard from Christmas 😂

OK so AF was due yesterday, still hasn't arrived. Been feeling slightly crampy and was really hot in bed last night, so going to do a test in the morning and see. Not feeling too optimistic but only one way to find out.

Read somewhere that a few people's AF was delayed after they started the Seven Seas Conception vitamin so...

Having a glass of wine to relax tonight too, mrsawhite and MollyD88

Jumping on the bus, AF arrived 5 days late. I've just ordered a clear blue ovulation predictor as I fell pregnant first time using one. It's taken so long for DH to feel ready for a second, I'm nearly 40 so I don't want to waste time.

Wow @CoachBombay that’s pretty scary! Great news about the ovulation though, fingers crossed for you. Hope it’s not hurting anymore.

Sorry about your weekend away not happening, @lori2019 - I guess it’ll make for a memorable weekend if you’ve conceived :D

And sorry to hear about your MC @LJS8987 - mine (also a 2nd) was around the same time. It sucks. But, onwards and upwards.

Oh ladies I've just come back from emergency gynea ward...I'm having a bit of a nightmare! So AF never arrived and this afternoon I suddenly had a lot of pain in my pelvis region, it was taking my breath away.

Anyway long story short I have mild OHSS from 50mg of Clomid?! 50!! But every cloud has a silver lining from my pelvic scans it's possible I've either just ovulated or may be about to 😂

The OHSS will subside on its own in time and it's only mild (I can't imagine the pain of a actually full blown episode!) So suppose I'm in TWW again as me and DH have been busy this weekend. 🤷😂
