Hi
So I ovulated Friday (although had signs on Saturday too, but it was around those days). DTD Sunday, Monday, Thursday and Friday (sorry if tmi)
Now anxiously waiting . AF due 25th October . Trying for our first so very very emotional haha
I have another lovely thread going on ttc #1 but thought I’d make this if anyone else is on their TWW and wants a buddy.

Thanks !

Hi ladies, can I join you! Hoping to conceive baby 2 soon but am still bfing baby 1 so not sure what that is doing to my fertility. Only just ovulated though so a long wait for me!
Think I’m due AF on 27th.

@Charlottethevet fingers crossed for us all! How exciting !
@banoffeepie91 me too, I had no periods at all so I was worried about whether they’d come back ok but they seem fine ! Fingers crossed 🤞🏼 xx

@Itsemily yep had the mirena coil and didn’t have periods at all on it which was brilliant. Fingers crossed for all of us!

Charlottethevet · 13/10/2019 14:20

Ohh! I ovulated on Thursday :) So If we managed to conceive- we will be due around the same time :)
This is my first cycle off the Progesterone only pill :)

@banoffeepie91 very relatable with my husband too.
They probably are right though !

I came off the coil in September and got my period straight away (well a couple of day’s later), so it’s only our first try. Did you have the Mirena coil ?

@Itsemily Yes my OH was the same with not wanting to know. He said it just makes him stressed and put pressure on DTD which he’s probably right about! How long have you been trying for? This is my 4th cycle after coming off the coil but I think I took a while to regulate so trying not to start worrying about it until it’s been a year.

@banoffeepie91 thank you for joining !
I attempted to track ovulation and seemed to be ok but got a bit stressed over it and eventually my husband said he doesn’t want to know when I’m ovulating or when I’m due AF lol , so I’m glad I can come here . He’s a nurse and was getting tired at work so the last thing I wanted was it to feel forced . You and I sound like we are in sync !

I’m due around the same time as you! Also TTC #1. Decided not to track or do OPKs this month and tried to be a bit more relaxed about everything so not 100% sure on ovulation day this month but pretty sure from EWCM and other symptoms it was Friday or Saturday. Have tried to just DTD every other day as we tried SMEP last month and were both exhausted and it felt a bit forced.
Be nice to have someone to share the TWW with.
