Hi everyone, just making this thread as it seems a few of us will be trying SMEP to TTC! Adding these lovely ladies in from another thread but I hope everyone feels free to join! All welcome :)

@Devgirl31 @fayy123 @NCON @MrsKJW19

Some stats about me:

TTC #1
27 years old, DH is 28 years old
Missed miscarriage in October 2019 at 7+2 weeks
Still in that cycle (no AF yet)
Long and irregular cycles, some anovulatory
Suspected low progesterone/hypothyroidism (I think this based on symptoms, not diagnosed yet!)

Hope we can all provide support for each other in this crazy TTC journey.

Feel free to introduce yourselves :)

Aaaah congrats @Shazzzzz !! That's great news! Hurrah!!

@danielasummer yes so happy it's not anovulatory! Yes 7-8 DPO now, small twinges, sore nipples but I think it could just be the post ovulation hormones and nothing to do with preggo symptoms, otherwise just blah with being back to work haha. How are you doing and feeling? fingers crossed for that third temperature rise! Massive hand hold to you too on the fertility clinic appointment!! Let me know how it goes xx

@Shazzzzz oh wow, congratulations!! Loving seeing these BFPs on our thread! Maybe post another pic when you've done another test? So very happy for you x

@ChampooPapi re lots of sex, you're totally right. Have just kept BDing every day and tried to make it fun again. I've had 2 high temps now though so 🤞🏻 if another high temp tomorrow then I've definitely ovulated and we can take a break haha! Weird to think I may be a few days DPO already. I've been waiting for this for ages, on CD34 right now. How are you doing? Which CD are you on? How's the more relaxed approach going for you this cycle? X

@sojo44 thank you for that info - will look into it in a few cycles time if I haven't had a BFP, combined with the CB digi sticks I should be able to pinpoint ovulation more accurately surely. So you must be 8DPO now? How are you doing? It's good that it's not PCOS with anovulatory - you can still get pregnant naturally with PCOS can't you (I think) if you're still ovulating? Crossing my fingers for you. I'm also waiting for my referral appointment to the fertility clinic. Let me know how yours goes. Here's a hand-hold x

@Lucy5546 this is true. We are quite exhausted now haha so hoping I've ovulated and we can have a break. How are you doing? Have you had any symptoms yet? X

ChampooPapi · 07/01/2020 19:42

@Shazzzzz I can imagine 😆🤗

Shazzzzz · 07/01/2020 19:40

I will keep you all updated!

@ChampooPapi i think 48 hours is gonna be tough 🙈

ChampooPapi · 07/01/2020 19:34

@Shazzzzz oh wow, keep us updated, I really hope this is a bfp for you and our thread 💜✨

Maybe give it 48 hours before testing again for clearer result

Bunny2006 · 07/01/2020 19:28

Shazzzzz · 07/01/2020 19:19

@Lucy5546 10 dpo, i will do another in the morning they are frer so hopefully wont be an evap line 🤞

Lucy5546 · 07/01/2020 19:14

@Shazzzzz i would try leave it another day or two to see if line progresses. Remind me how many DPO?

fayy123 · 07/01/2020 18:41

Shazzzzz · 07/01/2020 18:37

@fayy123 i dont even know! I was messing about with my little boy so pretty sure i could of read it after the 3 mins and I have a feeling it could be an evap but im sure i read evaps are grey and this one is defo pink! Its so faint i will see tomorrow! 😭

fayy123 · 07/01/2020 18:30

@Shazzzzz I see it to!! What are you feeling😭😭😭😭 I feel so wet down there but then again I feel like that when my period is about to start

Shazzzzz · 07/01/2020 18:17

@bluemoon2468 im not convinced! 😫 Im gonna test again in the morning as i did this at 5.30pm and have been weeing all day so could be an evap line? Hope not!🤞

bluemoon2468 · 07/01/2020 18:11

Shazzzzz · 07/01/2020 18:11

@Bunny2006 if you ovulated the 15th and BD 15th and 16th then youre in for a good chance! X

Shazzzzz · 07/01/2020 18:10

Bunny2006 · 07/01/2020 15:26

Hope everyone's doing ok! According to BBT/fertility friend I'm 3DPO (CD 18). Not feeling very hopeful as partner was away so only DTD CD10, 14, 15 & 16. Ovulated CD15.

Shazzzzz · 06/01/2020 21:30

@fayy123 probably the best! Im due on the 11th so i will do it that day if AF doesnt show 🙈 i am wondering if i get these twinges all the time but im only noticing because we are ttc haha! Xx

Shazzzzz · 06/01/2020 21:04

Shazzzzz · 06/01/2020 21:02
