Hey guys decided to make an end of August bus as there is already an August bus and by the time we get to the middle of aug we will need a new one anyway and it will keep us all around the same time in our cycles.

My stats
TTC no 2
Cycle 7
CD 1
AF/BFP due 25th August
Age 29(30 in 10 days 🙈)

Yeah that's true @Addey @ThatSamIAm

Good luck when you start testing @ThatSamIAm 😊

Tamalama · 01/08/2019 14:39

@Sophieb15 Yep! That's why I thought something would have been detected by now 😕

Addey · 01/08/2019 14:13

You can have ewcm about 3/4 days in the run up to ovulation.

ThatSamIAm · 01/08/2019 14:13

@Tamalama I think you get EWCM before you ovulate, so the CB is probably correct as your hormone surge has started but ov hasn't happened yet?

My cheapie tests have been delivered at home... Ovia says 1 day until pregnancy test... so is that tomorrow or Saturday 😂🙈

I bit the bullet and bought a clearblue digital ovulation kit on the way to work. I did the test just before midday and got the Low symbol. I had loads of ewcm this morning so I'm sad that it's showing as Low 😕

Hi, I'm new on here so I thought I would introduce myself.
I'm on my 1st month TTC (trying to conceive) baby number 3. I have 2 boys already, my oldest took over a year to conceive my second we conceived in the first month.
I'm on CD13 now.

ThatSamIAm · 01/08/2019 13:01

Anyone else feel like their body just loves playing tricks 😂 yesterday I was sure I was out and that AF was on its way, today I felt queasy all morning and so am wondering whether there's still a possibility 😬🤞 I've bought some tests but they won't arrive til tomorrow (Amazon cheapies) so I've just got to sit on my hands and resist spending out on CB tests until Saturday morning! AF not due til the weekend, but my cycles have varied since I had my last baby so it could be today, it could be next week 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Lucylou22039 The pill never agreed with me I was really moody and emotional on it. I found the implant brilliant I had it for just under 3 years Got it out in Jan. I'm on cycle 7 TTC no 2.

I hope it will happen for you fast but it might take a few months for your body to get back to normal after the pill. xx

@Sophieb15 yes first cycle trying. Came off my pill in July. I was on microgygen and I dunno if I'm just being silly but I must say I feel loads better within myself not being on the pill. Did anyone else feel like this? I also am now wonder how else it might have effected me

@Matilda1707 You should be covered if you DTD on both peak days. Some people don't get as much EWCM as others. x

@mrssunshinexxx OH hates the whole planning the BD he hates being told we have to do it tonight. The not seeing each other 4 days a week is a disaster when TTC. Hopefully you will get your peak smiley on a Fri and be able to DTD for the 3 nights you OH is home.

@Tamalama haha a quickie Smile

I'm only on CD 5 fingers crossed for a positive month!!! Going to Start DTD at the weekend just in case I O early.

DH and I are at home at the moment as we were waiting for the plumber to come round, so we dtd very quickly before he got here! 😂

Tamalama · 01/08/2019 08:43

So I'm still having negative opks, but I've just been to the loo and have lots of ewcm, it made such a damp patch on my underwear (tmi!) that I had to change them and put a pantyliner on, so I'm guessing it's due soon. DH wasn't around last night so definitely must dtd today at least! My apps say I'm due to ovulate tomorrow...

How is everyone else getting on?

Matilda1707 · 31/07/2019 20:49

Should say been trying since March and was on pill so my cycles very messed up until about 3-4 months ago and settled around 30 -33 days

Matilda1707 · 31/07/2019 20:47

Have been using cb monitor for 2 months and first time got a smiley peak on both d17 and 18 of cycle. We did BD on both but day 19 is when got ewcm and we didn’t that day as ironically my sister gave birth and went to hospital. OH working in Manchester at moment and I live in London so not ideal. Waiting to see what happens this month....af due 7 August

Tamalama · 31/07/2019 13:06

@mrssunshinexxx @Sophieb15 Fingers crossed this month you both dtd around ov time. All this planning and tracking is exhausting. I'm cycle 5 now and just a few days ago I thought can I even be bothered anymore to track but of course that quickly went away.

mrssunshinexxx · 31/07/2019 12:36

@Sophieb15 I feel for you it's exhausting planning it to a tee
My dh works offshore so if CB confirm high peak and o mon to fri I'm screwed basically unless he is weathered off and home

Tamalama · 31/07/2019 12:31

@Sophieb15 I'm using the cheapies from Home Bargains, Accu News! I'm using them twice a day. I can't afford the clearblue ones this month 😕 x

Welcome to all the new TTC'ers.

This forum helps me massively. I'm CD 4 today whoo hoo bleeding nearly gone. We will get busy this weekend and next 2 weekends and hope for the best. I might even get OH to wake me if I get O pain after next weekend just to be sure we are covered.

My Ovulation has been between CD 15-CD 18 and of course those 4 days fall on Sun,Mon,Tue,Wed. We will def get the Sun in but then OH goes on evenings and I'm at work all day. He will have to wake me at 3am maybe on the Tue to make sure but hopefully I will O on the Sunday and catch the exact day Smile

Hi all! So I've been using my opks for the last few days. Just did my mid morning one and it's negative but when I wiped the toilet paper was full of ewcm. I was dry earlier on so when I wiped I wasn't expecting any let alone that much, it made me feel a bit ill to look at 😂
Anyway, DH won't be back until late this evening but I'm guessing we should dtd tonight but most definitely tomorrow even though opk was negative? I'll do another one this evening...
