@Robbo93 glad to hear it! Fingers crossed for you. I pretty much know I'm out, was really emotional yesterday, cramps started too so I'm sure af will come right on time for me xx

ChampooPapi · 14/11/2019 08:13

@Anny27 how are you doing this morning? Smile

Robbo93 · 14/11/2019 07:34

@Anny27 aww bless you sweet, thank you 💐
How's the medication thing going? Has it hit you full pelt now? So sorry for what you are experiencing xxx

Anny27 · 14/11/2019 07:23

@robbo93 fingers crossed that's a good sign 🤞🤞🤞

Robbo93 · 14/11/2019 07:14

Morning ladies!
CD29 and a predicted 10DPO for me (this is a first with no spotting!) Absolutely nothing to report from me.

How are you all? Xx

Ellsbells112 · 13/11/2019 14:20

@anny27 I'm glad the heaviness has passed. Soon you can try again I wish you all the luck through this :) xxx

I took my iud out in april, was trying casually but nothing so started tracking properly from September x

Anny27 · 13/11/2019 13:46

How long have you been ttc this time @ellsbells112?

Yeah not feeling too bad thanks! Was a heavy crampy night but seems to just be like a normal period now :)

Ellsbells112 · 13/11/2019 13:37

@anny27 yeah I will because it's made me so down I defo wont test again till Saturday if af hasn't come. My tests arent coming till Saturday now anyway and I just bought 20 clear blue ovulation stick things for next month just in case. I'm gonna completely cutout coffee too see if that helps urgh

How are you feeling?? Xxx

Anny27 · 13/11/2019 13:33

Awwh still time @ellsbells112 :(

My bfp at 12dpo was very faint

Will you wait till sat to test again? Xx

Ellsbells112 · 13/11/2019 13:27

Did a first response and got a bfn 😤 11dpo today

falkor32 · 13/11/2019 12:21

@ChampooPapi I totally agree, we set the alarm yesterday for 6am and had a successful session.

Tried the same this morning (told husband to be on standby last night due to signs of LH surge starting) and husband couldn’t finish so hoping to try again later!

Today is dragging at work and I hope for some better luck later 🤞🏻 ... I’m so anxious for it to happen today as we’ve not been managing to successfully DTD the first day I get my static smiley face 😫

Ellsbells112 · 13/11/2019 11:16

@champoopapi 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 omg you legend!!! Yes it's TRUE actually hes woken me a few times at those ridiculous (AMAZING) hours for sex. Yum.

@charlie0692 ahhh mannnn I'm so sorry chick 🤗🤗❤❤ please look after yourself and of you need to have a little cry before getting yourself together again by all means do it!! Xxx

ChampooPapi · 13/11/2019 11:13

I find very early morning sex is the way, a man will always be ready physically (plus confused as it's early so won't question it!). Set an alarm for 5 am and go for it, it's the can be the best time as no one is too tired like at night or to I'm a rush to get to work ect.

And you can go back to sleep afterwards 😴

charlie0692 · 13/11/2019 11:09

Hey everyone, hope your all ok. I'm out for this month, af arrived last night 2 days early. Wishing you all loads of baby dust, hope I see loads of bfp over the next few weeks x

Ellsbells112 · 13/11/2019 09:40

@falkor32 thank you so much xxx
I have my fingers crossed for you too chick xxx
I'm 11dpo today, I have a first response but I'm way too scared to take it. I'm going to try and wait for Saturday and if af isht here I'll test. Normally for 2 days prior to my period I get bad cramps so tomorrow might be telling xx

falkor32 · 13/11/2019 09:31

@Ellsbells112, it’ll be okay. Sorry if I’ve missed it but how many DPO are you? Hopefully not too many days away from being able to take a test.

I can relate, every cycle the TTW is torture. Sometimes I will try and distract myself with reading or housework or going for a walk.

Whenever you test, I have my 🤞🏻🤞🏻 for you that it’s a BFP. Xx

Ellsbells112 · 13/11/2019 09:20

@falkor32 omg I know what you mean! It's like when i get EWCM in the morning I'm like we need to do it nowwwww!!! And hes like...no i have work to go to (bare in mi d he works for himself so he can leave later if he wants) then he comes back at bloody 11/12 at night for fuck sake and then takes ages to finish! Oh my god it's a whole ordeal!
So yes I get you about the whole day being on edge!
Now i just want to cry and i want an answer now as to whether i am or not I'm so done with this I just cant be assed for it. So I'm probably being hormonal which means my bloody af might want to rear its head soon! I bloody hope not 😤 xx

falkor32 · 13/11/2019 09:15

@Ellsbells112 I know exactly how you feel! I’ve been feeling the same way as you. My husband struggles with the pressure of DTD and sometimes he just doesn’t finish around my fertile window so it’s an added worry whether or not we time it right.

I actually feel like a crazy hormonal person this morning, it’s going to be a very long day at work today before we’re both at home and able to give it another shot. Currently feel like after getting my static this morning I’ve got an ovulation clock ticking along to the countdown tune in my head! 😳 X

Ellsbells112 · 13/11/2019 09:08

@falkor32 haha yea when I told mine he was like "right okay" lol has to be done!! I'll start from CD8 though I think.

@Gems7 I'm not holding onto much hope I really dont want to get let down especially because I have no obvious signs. Can I just say, I'm on another thread and a lot of people have gotten their bfps which is so amazing and I'm super happy for them!! Honestly...but I cant help but feel deflated not in a horrible way but you know what I mean? I just have an obsessive personality I cant not obsess once I want something its who I am 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ and me and OH cant just "let it happen" because we dont have a lot of sex so I have to bloody schedule it to get somewhere it's such a wind up! so this is definitely consuming me and I'm not laid back at all lol I just really hope we get our bfps 😭😭🤞🤞🙏🙌 xxx

Gems7 · 13/11/2019 08:41

@Ellsbells112 I'm the same as you, feel fine, no symptoms at all. No boob twinges since yesterday, to be honest I think that's probably something that happens all the time and I just never notice. I'm only 7DPO today. Roll on Saturday for you!! Eeek now long now! 😬🤞🏻
@falkor32 no worries hun, it really is comforting to know there are other crazy women in the same boat as you 😁
Xx

falkor32 · 13/11/2019 08:32

Thanks both, it’s so comforting to talk to people in a similar situation!

@Ellsbells112 we were wanting to do SMEP this cycle 😂 so we started yesterday at CD10. Husband look scared when I said we will have to try again tonight at tomorrow! 🙈

Ellsbells112 · 13/11/2019 08:20

@Gems7 royal pain the arse! I woke up this morning like "do I feel.l different!?" Nope nada! I get up in the night to wee twice though every night now...but I'm putting it down to drinking a lot of water.
11dpo today and getting closer to Saturday!
I'll definitely be doing SMEP next cycle if I havent caught
How are you hunnie xxx

@falkor32 ovulation timing is sooo stressful but doing it tonight will be absolutely fine xx

Gems7 · 13/11/2019 07:53

@falkor32 don't worry I completely understand, it's difficult not to obsess when you really want something to happen. I missed it last cycle because I OV on a weds but hadn't DTD since Sun. OH was away on the Monday and exhausted on the Tuesday. I was really upset so I know how it feels when you feel like you've missed your chance.
For me personally I am totally fine after AF finishes and then I feel twinges on one side and I'm like 👀 I think they last a day or so and then I ovulate. That's been the pattern so far anyway. This cycle I started to feel the twinges last Monday and then on Wednesday it was worse and bordering on painful so I am assuming that is when I OV but I can't be 100% certain. Maybe it was on Monday? DTD Sunday and Tuesday anyway so hopefully caught it either way. Mind you we aren't guaranteed to become pregnant are we.. even if we time it to perfection.
TTC is a pain in the arse at times!
Good luck hun xx

falkor32 · 13/11/2019 07:34

Sorry for the double post, I was having a lot of twinges yesterday on my right hand side of my hip/lower abdomen area which I guess makes sense now ... do you twinge like that before you ovulate or when you ovulate?

falkor32 · 13/11/2019 07:26

@Gems7 thank you for replying. I’m trying to not to freak out but it’s so hard 😩 and I’m peaking/ovulating so much earlier than normal which hasn’t helped .. x
