Hi Ladies, any of you out there around cd 8 looking for someone to chat with during the rollercoaster ride that is ttc? A lot of my friends already have kids and I’m feeling a bit left behind. xo

@Sammiantha2020 just seen your message I'll email you now. X

Jenna30ttc · 24/01/2020 21:26

@Sammiantha2020

So I just looked into how we would connect by WhatsApp. And if I log onto MN via the desktop app I can send you a private message. Ill send you one now let me know if you get it and then I can send you my number?

@Sammiantha2020 I’m guessing I’d have you give you my email address in order to add on WhatsApp to make numbers private etc? I’m clueless with all that! Well apparently before you ovulate your bbt is lower then once you ov bbt peaks above your ‘cover line’ which is exactly what mines did! Now af has arrived they have started to drop rapidly again. I’ve got a irpoven bbt thermometer but I’ve seen other girls on diff threads talking about femometer x

@Sammiantha2020 I would be up for whatsapp 😃. Be easier to communicate too. Also do you not need to bbt track for a few months to show that you are ovulating though? I might look into some thermometers over the weekend. Might need some advice once it arrives if that's okay? I have read about it but helps when someone explains.

@Jenna30ttc I know you may think it sounds stressful but I would highly recommend tracking your bbt and recording it in fertility friend... I panicked a bit in December after my mmc and thought I wasn’t ovulating but that proved i was! Unfortunately you still need opk’s if you are trying to time it right as bbt only shows you’ve ovulated after it’s happened. Do you use WhatsApp at all? No worries if don’t wanna do that...also @Wintergal - was just thinking we could make a group chat x

@Sammiantha2020 thank you for the reassurance I appreciate it. Actually does make me feel better. On to the next cycle now. Least we can do it together. Enjoy your glass of wine. Im going to get one now as a 🖕🏽to 🩸🩸🩸 plus I fancy it anyway 😉 xx

@Jenna30ttc it messes with your mind! My cycle before last I covered the entire fertile window & that wasn’t good enough! Try not to stress yourself out too much...every egg we release isn’t always excellent quality. I’m a firm believer in what’s for us won’t go by us! We will do this - I’m sure of it! I’ve got a wine as I type - thoroughly enjoying it! x

@Sammiantha2020 haha i must've have subconsciously wanted to join you 😂😂😛. Thanks chick. I desperately need a glass of wine. This means like you I must've ovulated on day 12. We dtd on day 11 and 13 which means it wasn't enough? What is enough then? Especially when they say it only takes that one time'! Obviously not! ffs I'm pissed off but glad at the same time so now I can move on and try yet again!

@Jenna30ttc you are on a 26 day cycle just like me - stop copying me 🤣. I’m sorry huni, but we can help eachother through the next! It always helps to have folk at a similar stage. Fertility friend has me at cd 2 so I’m not that far ahead of you! Here’s to our next 🥂 x

Well girls af has arrived. 4 days early too! Just went to the loo and wiped and there it was! Not red but very light (pinkish). But I know its not implantation bleeding its just the beginning of af. Just when I thought my cycles were like 30/31 it's 26 this cycle. Onto the next one. So bd'ing eod didn't work for me. Think it's going to have to be smep for me this month. @Sammiantha2020 I'll be joining you 😂

Jenna30ttc · 24/01/2020 17:03

@Sammiantha2020 awh dear! That's poo. Not long to go before you can start again though. Go and treat yourself to a few glasses. I could do with a glass of 🍷. Enjoy your night with OH xx

EB211 · 24/01/2020 16:34

@Jenna30ttc aww that sounds lovely, its good to treat yourself! Happy Friday everyone :) :)

Jenna30ttc · 24/01/2020 15:54

Well ladies I've just been for a 💇🏽‍♀️ and had my eyebrows waxed and shortly going to get my 💅🏽 done. Feels nice to treat myself. I bought some sachets for my infection. Even though it's better today and I didn't want to assume I'm okay. Happy Friday ladies 👏🏽

@Jenna30ttc that sounds like a good idea... it’ll keep you occupied during af 😔.
You are still in for now...let’s not count you out! That’s a bonus that you are feeling better though...I had those pesky infections!
As we’re not together 3 nights a wk smep may be difficult, but I’m hoping if this cycle is like the 1 just gone then I should ov a wk on Mon which allows me to try hard next wkend 😉 x
