@Nic555 oh that's good then that you were ovulating at least. Being on the Nexplanon implant I think that stops you from ovulating, so that's my biggest worry - I'd like to get back into a cycle of actually ovulating again. I'm on day 7 of flashing smileys now though so I think I'll use the last stick in the pack of CB and stop for this month as it's getting frustrating.

@Jj2431 good luck 🤞🏻 any sign of AF? Are you testing again today?

Jj2431 · 15/10/2019 20:55

Hi. Currently 9 days late but all BFN so assuming I'm out this month and my psos is playing up or I'm so stressed I've stopped my period so hoping AF just shows so I can move on. Going to keep trying for November.

I'm 30 (31 next month)

It will be second month trying

Ttc #3

Got pregnant with #1 within 2 months, took over 2 years with #2 due to pcos and was told probably wouldn't happen so not holding much hope of actually getting my third wished for baby. Already blessed but would love a 3rd to complete us as we always said 3.

Nic555 · 15/10/2019 20:39

@CooperLooper I was a luckily ovulating but just long cycles so felt forever until I was next fertile which was just crap. Yes don't bother again I got obsessed and it changes so quickly it's pointless. I'm Using clear blue the advance ones. They're so good as can use your FMU which is so much easier

@plaw definitely sounds like you're ovulating fingers crossed 🤞 I know what u mean about long cycles. It's frustrating not having as many chances so u really have to make it count x

Plaw · 15/10/2019 20:24

Ok if I join?

Ttc #2
Cycle 1
I have long cycles so this is why I’m determined to give it my best shot as I only have about 9 cycles a year.

I think I’m ovulating at the mo, opk was positive but both lines were a little faded, I tested last night and just had the one line. I’m taking that as a positive? And tmi sorry! I have some egg white CM going on now too. It’s amazing how we suddenly become aware of what’s going on in our bodies when we are ttc. Baby dust to all.

CooperLooper · 15/10/2019 20:17

@Nic555 yeeeahh I tried checking my cervix once just to see and honestly thought to myself 'what the eff are you doing' it just felt so weird! Which OPKs are you using?

3 months must have been tough, especially once you've made the decision to TTC and you're raring to go. Glad you're on track and back to usual now though x

Nic555 · 15/10/2019 19:47

Welcome everyone 😊 good luck. Hopefully we will see lots of BFPs in November.

@CooperLooper your post has just made me laugh 😂 I forget my age so much as well. Welcome to the madness of trying to conceive. My one tip is don't bother checking your cervical position. I started doing that and it just confused me so much 😂 just use the OPK. That's really quick to get a smiley face after your implant so fab news. Took me three months to get back to normal after the pill x

CooperLooper · 15/10/2019 15:52

Jesus Christ I've got my own age wrong - I'm 28 not 29! 😅

CooperLooper · 15/10/2019 15:49

Hello 🙋🏼‍♀️ jumping on the fun bus too

Age 29
TTC #1
Cycle 1
CD fuck knows I haven't had a period in like a hundred years

Had my implant out on 5th Oct. I've been using CB OPKs to try and see if/when my body starts doing what it should, and I'm on day 6 of flashing smileys no peak yet, so I'll probably stop in a couple of days. Tracking using the Ovia app which I'm finding useful as I can track symptoms and intercourse days and CM and cervix positioning and all other weird and wonderful things (who knew making a baby would be such a military operation).

My doc advised to POAS after 4 weeks if there's still no sign of a period.

Nice to meet you all and good luck! 🥳🧡

Nic555 · 15/10/2019 15:17

@Maisy24 sounds like the perfect weekend. A lot of people getting pregnant when they don't bother temping or doing OPK so you could be in with a good chance as long as you DTD at some point 😂 I'm CD11 hoping to be in fertile window by end of week. Not doing OPK till tomorrow and not started SMEP think I'll just do the three days in a row and then miss a day rather than so much before I get a positive OPk

Maisy24 · 15/10/2019 14:04

Sorry everyone I'm back! I've been away for the weekend with the girls and let's just say I totally forgot about everything and was drunk for the whole thing so I very much doubt I'm in with a chance this month 😔 I needed it though.

I haven't temped at all so I haven't a clue if I've ovulated yet. I will do my temp in the morning and check.

Hope everyone is doing well, I can see there have been a lot of new additions to our group.

Fingers crossed we get some good results! I'm on cd 22.

Xxxx

CouscousEvaporator · 15/10/2019 12:40

Hi to all new people 🙂

@MrsC89 I hear you! I didn’t take bbt this morning due to being up at half 1. 🙄 So tired today.
@blackpinkinyourarea I am also too lazy to take my temp every morning so I do it for about a week and a half around ov until I ovulate!
One app says I ovulate tomorrow so we are covered for that but I’m hoping it happens Friday at the earliest as OH is away with work. Only a hint of a line on opks so far so fingers crossed!

MrsC89 · 14/10/2019 18:36

Hiya can I join?

Cycle length is normally 35 days, currently CD12
I tried temping but I carried on forgetting to do it before I got up! Sticking with the OPK's and using the apps.

blackpinkinyourarea · 14/10/2019 13:52

Hi, jumping on the bus.
TTC #1
Age 29
Cycle 2 (CD3 today)
Testing November 5th, but might be more like 7th + as im basing that on ovulating as early as i think i did last cycle

People that temp, do you do it every day? Im going to start doing it this cycle but waiting till AF is finished. Im too lazy in the morning to do it every day!

LaniB · 14/10/2019 11:22

Hey everyone :)

Can i join?

Im 30
Going through iui
Im currently on my Two week wait, im a week in time feels like it has stopped. I have to get a blood test on the 22nd to see if we have conceieved.

Hows everyone getting on?

Xx

ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphia · 14/10/2019 09:43

@MrsLEB maybe just go every other day from today? I guess the important thing is going for it when the OPK is positive 🤣

My body is playing tricks on me! Positive (just about) OPK yesterday AM and fading since so think I surged in the early hours of Sunday, temps are all over the place!
I really hope I’m about to ovulate but not getting my hopes up and had a failed ovulation early last cycle and it does seem to be very early in my cycle?
Last cycle was 30 days (which is shortest since January since coming off the pill) with LP of 13 day.. can you get different LPs from each ovary? 🤔

November Bus - testing first week of November 2019
MrsLEB · 14/10/2019 09:02

So SMEP isn't going well for us so far this month... we were enjoying the well earned break since the TWW and AF arrival. I suggested to start on CD8 rather than CD6 as my cycles are longer and it became a long slog last month at the end (which was the most important time!) CD8 arrived (Friday) and we were too tired from work so it didn't happen. Then on Saturday we were so deprived we DTD twice! So we are all out of sync now 😂 have been opking but nothing positive yet.

Me and hubby been trying for what feels like forever. Had bloods at docs and opk at home, app track cervix checking and I've been obsessed! This is the first month I'm stopping tracking, testing and concentrating on us!

Baby dust to everyone, hope November is our monthSmile

ceebee21 · 12/10/2019 08:13

@CouscousEvaporator haha I said when I had my implant removed I wouldn't be one to monitor everything. How wrong I was haha. But how can you not when you know the time frame is pretty small each month! Xx

CouscousEvaporator · 12/10/2019 06:49

@ceebee21 this is good news 🙂

I thought we were being super chilled TTC but OH said to me last night I need to let him know when I’m in my fertile window as the program “the great sperm race” said we need to do it every other day 😂

ceebee21 · 12/10/2019 00:16

Well, more positive than earlier.. I seem to have stopped bleeding, pregnancy test pretty much negative now (the faintest faint line you ever did see..) and I have my 1st flashing smiley...fingers crossed that faint line has gone over the weekend xx

Nic555 · 11/10/2019 19:54

@ceebee21 try not to put too much pressure on yourself. It can take a bit of time to get your body back to normal. Fingers crossed for you

@BurnerPhone sounds a good plan. That's what I'll be doing this time when I get my smiley

@CouscousEvaporator it only takes one sperm 😂 says me who tries every day in the fertile window just incase. It's true though I've seen lots of people have their BFP and only BD once in FW

CouscousEvaporator · 11/10/2019 08:19

Aw @ceebee21 it’s understandable to feel negative after your experience. Try to go easy on yourself 💐

I’m not feeling positive or negative, just feel accepting of what will be will be. We will probably get to have sex at some point during my FW but it probably won’t be enough!
I guess I’m feeling realistic 😆 it’s crap with shift work!

@BurnerPhone yes I would try those days after a static 🤞🏻

ceebee21 · 10/10/2019 23:11

I'm feeling negative atm haha, I had an ERPC last Tuesday following a MMC...I'm just waiting around for OV so we can start trying again...feel like it's gonna be ages before anything happens xx

GoAwayAF · 10/10/2019 20:46

@Nic555 thanks for the preseed tip! Not tried anything like that before I might invest!

Is everyone feeling positive? It’s nice to see how supportive you all are to each other, hope this month is kind!
