About to go into my fertile week and will be testing 29th jan 🙂 this is my 4th cycle trying for my 1st.

Anyone want some company while we enter into another TWW? 🙂

Officially in my TTW I think! Ovulated later than I thought so just starting now.

Got my fingers crossed for you all!

I'd love to hear of the positives in here 🥰 gives me hope it might happen for us soon!

How's everyone feeling?

All all , I have been TTC for 2 years.
I am on 1st cycle clomid and will be testing on 23/24th of this month (AF due on 22nd)
@ZoeCa we are in same boat

Jessiebells · 13/01/2020 17:09

Hi everyone!
I am testing the same time, if I can hold off from doing ones before that date 🙈 ovulation has been very confusing this month. Sending you all lots of luck and hope you get your BFP!
P.s anyone using clear blue advanced and had trouble with it? It’s telling me peak on some days then high fertility a week later?

AliSxo · 13/01/2020 16:59

So I'm ovulating Tuesday/Wednesday... let's say Wednesday. When does everyone DTD? The last 2 cycles we've done it most days of the fertile window but by the time of ovulation day my partners running out... if that makes sense!! So we're going for every other day during fertile window so far. However with ovulation on Wednesday I'm wondering when's best to do it? We did it yesterday (Sunday) but I think I'll do it Tuesday and Wednesday... however I'd also like to do it Thursday but might do it Friday instead? Xx

Jonesbabynumber1 · 13/01/2020 16:25

@AsSurprisedAsYouAre I know lots of people who have bd every day during fertile period not caught and then caught the month they hardly did it. So definitely don’t panic just do it when you

AsSurprisedAsYouAre · 13/01/2020 13:22

CD11 and I usually Ovulate around CD13/14 so it's all just starting again for another month here! There doesn't look to be too many nights this week that we'll be in the same bed at the same time (we work strange shift patterns..) so I think it's going to have to be a little bit 'organised fun' in our house for the next few days! I wish I felt like I had more time and we could chill out and let things happen if/when they did - but I'm going to be 36 this year and we'd ideally like more than one child, with a decent age gap, so I am a little aware of time! Fingers crossed we'll find our paths cross!

Hey would like to join, this is our first month ttc, ive been doing the clear blue advance digital opk and on the 6th day of flashing smiley I got the static smiley yesterday evening :) we dtd Friday and yesterday so hoping we have a good chance. DH doesn't want to track and just wants to "see what happens", but I cant help it I needed to know when I was ovulating to know weve got a chance! so according to my apps and static smiley yesterday, I will be ovulating today, but I got sharp pains yesterday so not sure exactly. Either way I guess the wait starts now :)

AutumnCat · 13/01/2020 12:17

Hello everyone! Thoight I was going to be totally chill about my first ever TWW... I'm not remotely chill! Just trying to focus on other things but going slightly mad and thinking everything is a sign I'm pregnant. Sending love to all! And I'm another "recently turned 30 and got adult hat on" @charlottees89 and @ablisha.

ZoeCa · 13/01/2020 12:04

After using OPKs for a long time now. I had my first positive OPK this month on clomid! Hurray! I'm wondering if others have had this and then stopped testing once they know when their ovulation period is? I feel I'm getting too obsessed with the sticks!

FireflyGirl · 13/01/2020 11:30

How long is your cycle, Lexie? If you're not sure when you ovulate, it's always better to start earlier.

My fertile window doesn't end until later in the week, but I have short cycles.

AF is due 31st. I may crack and test slightly early, but with DS I didn't get a positive test until I was about 4 days late. Then it suddenly came up positive at about 7pm (after I'd shared a bottle of wine with DH over lunch!)

Have you been able to pinpoint ovulation, Sparkle? That way you don't need to have quite as much sex 😉

DH and I are just enjoying not having to worry about contraception. I doubt we will be as enthusiastic next month!

Lexie365 · 13/01/2020 01:22

hi. i will be testing 29th/30thSmile cycle 2 ttc dc2Grin. well technically cycle 2 even though last month we didn't try until cycle day 16 so might have missed ovulation. this month started trying on cycle day 13 so really hope we havn't missed it again. not using ovulation tests. wish me luckSmile baby dust to everyone x

Sparkle2020 · 13/01/2020 00:15

Everyone on here finishing off their fertile week too? I (think) mine ends Tuesday but not sure if my OPKs were solid positives or not. DH isn’t pulling his weight well in the BD side of things at the moment so not sure if we have much luck this cycle :(

BS9790 · 12/01/2020 22:49

Can I join? Think I see one or 2 people from another thread I'm on too.
AF due around 30th I think, but this is first cycle after MC in December.. So who knows Hmm bit of a guessing game!

JoesM12 · 12/01/2020 21:58

@FireflyGirl how did you get on with the frankincense oil?! Mood killer?
Ah that’s great you’re able to track without opks 😊 I think if we aren’t lucky this month I’m going to stop with the opks etc next month and just wing it! I’m finishing it can become a bit obsessive and I so don’t want to get to hung up on it and stressed!!
Fingers crossed this is our month though ❤️

FireflyGirl · 12/01/2020 00:26

Waft some of my frankincense oil at him, Joes. If nothing else, he'll leave the Xbox to find out what's crawled in and died and you can jump his bones on the way Grin

We're vaguely doing SMEP, except I don't have OPKs. I have short cycles, though, which makes it easier, and have been successful 4 times before without using OPKs (only one DC).

JoesM12 · 11/01/2020 22:33

@FireflyGirl good luck girl!😊
My husband has just bought a new xbox so I don’t think I have a hope of getting any tonight 😂😂 definitely going to try though!

JoesM12 · 11/01/2020 22:30

Hey all 😊 id love to join. We’re in cycle 3 ttc baby #2! Should be testing around these dates. According to my apps I’m due to ov this weekend!! My clear blue digital has been high for two days so hoping to get my peak tomorrow 😊
We have been doing SMEP this month and using preseed!x

FireflyGirl · 11/01/2020 21:53

My fertile window is apparently due to start tomorrow, so this is it. I've put on my new incense diffuser that DH got me for Christmas in our bedroom to help with the mood - I chose frankincense oil, it smells absolutely awful Envy Wish me luck!!

charlottees89 · 11/01/2020 16:59

@ablisha 😂😂 yep adult hat is well and truly on! Just read your previous post, me and my DH also weren't meant to start trying until Feb but then felt that there was no time with the presence! Good luck xx

Ziggystarduck · 11/01/2020 15:46

Hi everyone! I'd love to join you all, AF due 25th but haven't confirmed ov yet so may be a day or two later.
I've just had an hsg test and have read a lot about it increasing the likelihood of getting pregnant in the month or two that follow. So high hopes for this cycles are an understatement! Bring on the next two weeks of utter insanity, uncontrollable peeing on sticks and Dr Google 🤣

Jonesbabynumber1 · 11/01/2020 15:33

Hi all, same boat as everyone cycle 5, cd 12 think I ovulate between cd16-20 will most probably test end of month. Trying a relaxed approach this month hoping it works. Feels like it will never happen. Fingers crossed for some BFP

FirsttimeTTC · 11/01/2020 14:53

Ooh perfect thread! AF due on 30th Jan so will be testing around then. (More than likely a few days before as I’m a serial POAS-er!)

Baby dust to all!

lab19 · 11/01/2020 11:50

Hi everyone,
Currently CD 6 around cycle 7 ttc #1. Had my implant removed this time last year, also seem to have quite short cycles around 23-25 days. Due on 1st Feb, Really thought last month was our month but AF ruined that earlier in the week! Anyway onto the next one! Hoping dry jan and an all round healthier month may help. Fingers crossed for us all x

ablisha · 11/01/2020 11:28

@charlottees89 I'm the same as you, turned 30 last year and now am trying to have my adult hat on!

charlottees89 · 11/01/2020 11:00

@Catred4 sounds like you're on a similar cycle to @AsSurprisedAsYouAre and me. It's so exciting but scary at the same time!! I had a wild year last year for my 30th now time to be sensible, funny how your mind set completely changes. Keep in touch xx
