Anyone doing the sperm meets egg plan this month?

@Lnix go on the pill if you don't like it! I'll go back if we don't manage it soon. Scan showed nothing so they say its 'hormonal'.

@MummyT13 I feel the same. Was praying preseed was a miracle. Lol.

@mummyT13 aw 10DPO is still early for testing so you never know. I used to be a poas addict but honestly just find the bfns too crushing. I'd rather just see the blood coming. Unless it's late in which case I'll test. Sorry about your grandad 😓 @Mysweet oh no did you have bloods or ultrasound? You poor thing. What are they doing for you? I have no idea if I actually ovulate, just going by regular periods and opk surges. Will get checked out in a few months of no joy. Hope you're ok!! @paintfairy I think quite a lot of women spot during cycles, what does your doctor say?

@Lnix I think I would feel better if I felt that it could happen! I think I have a luteal phase problem to bleed so early. Dunno. So it's crap wasting your time trying if it's not even possible!

Its funny isn't it- you see other people trying for babies and watch them on TV. All seems like a fun part of life. How wrong we were!

I had blood tests which show I don't ovulate, so no need to test here as I have undeniable evidence that it will always be a BFN 😭

@paintfairy 🙄 hope you're ok. It's hard not to feel beaten before you know you're out for sure. I feel sad this am! X

I'm red bleeding now which means AF will be here at the weekend. 😔

Hey guys how are we all?

I am expecting AF today...am due and can feel it. Ever hopeful that it's early pregnancy stuff but pretty sure it's just AF. Have mild cramps, sore boobs etc. All same as every month. Haven't tested as can't face seeing a bfn. Will test in next couple of days if AF doesn't appear. X

Hi girls, anyone interested in Pregnacare Conception & Wellman Conception? I have 3 leftover boxes from each plus 42 ovulations tests. We took them for a month prior to trying and then around 2 weeks and got pregnant. We can agree on price, I just wish it can help to someone else too.

Have brown spotting mixed with CM now. It's minor for me (if I am indeed 11 dpo and not 9 or 5, as it was confusing this month). But I usually spot. Last month was horrendous and I was red 'spotting' from CD 15. I'm CD22 today.

@Lnix 🤣 I'm keeping him at arms length now. But I think he was well amazed when I said don't worry about me, just get on with it. 😁

@paintfairy 🤣🤣 that's one way round it x

@Lnix @MummyT13 Well that's easily solved. I actually opted to have sex and let him finish and I didn't? Sperm entered - tick. Bad contractions - nope. 🤣

@MummyT13 I honestly have never heard that. I just googled and it said similar to what you said. But then another site said exposure to semen in mammals (how scientific of me) is helpful for implantation?! Not a problem for us really as I am usually glad of the break 😮 I would say if you googled "should I scratch my nose when trying for a baby" there would be an article somewhere that would suggest you shouldn't. I'm all for keeping things as normal as poss. GPs often suggest sex every other day from CD10-20 if not doing opks. Obvs that's into ovulation territory if you ovulate before day 14. Plus regular ejaculation is good for the sperm! However, despite my convincing speech, if we keep failing I may try abstaining during implantation window!! X

@littletandme I was obsessing too. I've stopped trying but still haven't slept through. I'm shattered!

@paintfairy yeah I'm just comparing it to when I conceived DD, my chart that month was textbook perfect so obviously I'm obsessing that anything less than textbook means I'm not going to get pregnant!

@MummyT13 thanks, it doesn't help that I keep comparing my chart to the month I conceived DD over 3 years ago even though my sleep has understandably been shitter than pre-child TTC!

@littletandme I was like that this month. It stressed me out so much I stopped sleeping and couldn't even get a temp. I gave up. Next month I'm just going to make sure we are DTD over the right time. I'm pretty consistent.

@MummyT13 I worried that. Last month we did it 9dpo. 10dpo I started cramping bad and bleeding. I hoped it was implantation. I never ever get cramping before AF, even though i spot a lot some months. I also cramped again a few days later. And then AF came a few after that. It could have been completely unrelated. But i decided not to risk it this month. Of course if my body was trying to implant early around 4-5dpo i might accidentally do it though?

Well I think I'm 1 or 2dpo today but temp still hasn't risen much which is worrying me. OPKs were negative yesterday after a very strong peak on Thursday but now I have ran out of them. So just got to hope my temp will continue to rise even if slowly, my chart is a total mess this month so Fertility Friend is convinced I ovulated on Wednesday, but I don't see how that's possible if I had an even stronger opk on Thursday 🤷🏻‍♀️ Femometer is saying Thursday so I'll just go with that I guess!! I'll probably test on Tuesday 3rd which will be at least 11dpo then.
