Saying that my cycles are usually 36 days but my app has said my period won't be due until cd39 this month.

Is that because I ovulate later in the cycle it's done that? 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Mamaofboys3 I'm 3dpo my AF is due 6th. I bought first response tests but was just going to wait until AF is late.

Mamaofboys3 · 27/04/2020 09:01

@babyG123 thank you lovely! It was an early test I'm 10dpo today. I have also done a digital because I couldn't wait and it confirmed it! How many days past ovulation are you?

@MoonW thank you again! Oh wow so maybe it was a blip yesterday... fingers crossed for you 🤞🏽

MoonW · 27/04/2020 08:58

So interestingly my temp has gone back up this morning, so putting yesterday down as a blip (unless af arrives today) Hmm

@MrsLBear this is only my second cycle of tracking it all so I’m not entirely sure

@Mamaofboys3 congratulations, that’s a lovely line!

@popcorndiva 🤞 for your peak!

@Mamaofboys3 congratulations!!!! Was you AF late or this a early test? Intrigued whether to do early myself in a few days

popcorndiva · 27/04/2020 08:49

We used preseed last night for the first time. Quite hard to get the applicator loaded. But 🤞it helps

Opk tests are getting darker each day so hopeful I will see a peak in a couple of days

@RobinRose thank you so much! Hoping its not a chemical. I'm trying to stay positive 🤞🏽

RobinRose · 27/04/2020 06:34

That’s fab @Mamaofboys3! Congratulations 🥳!!

Mamaofboys3 · 27/04/2020 06:07

Ladies I still can't believe it but the line is definitely stronger. Thank you so much for your support. Sending lots of baby dust your way

@myhappystreak aww thank you so much. Sending lots of baby dust to you for this month to. Just hoping my body doesn’t play such rubbish tricks with me this month as the waiting has been awful for af.

babyG123 · 26/04/2020 23:11

@Littlebump2018 I think it has a lot to do with age and what the sperm count is so everyone is different.

Littlebump2018 · 26/04/2020 22:27

@myhappystreak thanks so much! We did it every other day until our static smiley yesterday and we did it twice(more for fun than anything with the second time) but wondered if it would ruin today's sperm count.

I haven't said anything to OH but I hope I haven't ruined anything 😬

babyG123 · 26/04/2020 22:20

Glad I'm not the only thats like no more 🤣 11 times in 2 weeks I need a rest pmsl

Adrianoska · 26/04/2020 22:07

And last night I was sleeping soundly, no need to TTC on 3dpo..my husband came to bed all frisky and I was like oh no, no, no... 🤣

Adrianoska · 26/04/2020 22:06

@myhappystreak 🤣🤣🤣sick of it 😂 I swear last week I was lying there and thought "never again" hahah!!!

myhappystreak · 26/04/2020 22:02

@Florence13 sorry AF showed in the end. Our bodies can be cruel making us wait for AF when TTC. But also I'm happy to see you on the bus and I wish you lots of baby luck this month x

myhappystreak · 26/04/2020 22:00

@Littlebump2018 I believe its recommended to DTD every other day to let the sperm mature. However if they are a young healthy male it shouldn't matter too much doing it every day.

We are following smep so we did it every other day to begin with, but are now on our 4th consecutive day (OPK peaked the day after we had already done it and you're supposed to do 3 days in a row from then) bloody sick of it if I'm honest hahaha.

Littlebump2018 · 26/04/2020 20:09

Might be a stupid question but if you DTD more than once a day will it ruin your chances of getting pregnant? Like will the sperm count be really low each time?

Skyla01 · 26/04/2020 18:45

@Dixie17 i kinda know what you mean- I love my friends but they all have kids / are pregnant and given that we are struggling ttc it's actually been a little bit easier not having to visit them all. That makes me sound horrible- obviously I'd much rather be able to see them all but it's a bit of a silver lining...

Dixie17 · 26/04/2020 18:26

@Newbie0818 - sounds like he did the right thing. Food/phone/ space! Sometimes You just need a down day...I usually make it worse by googling and reading/watching things that make me feel worse! I hope you feel better soon xxxx

I’m day 4 of flashing smiley...🤞

I’m meant to be going on a hen do in 5 weeks time, there has been a lot of chat on the WhatsApp that it might be able to go ahead. Is it bad that I felt panicked lockdown would be over by then!? This group of friends just constant baby chat and it would likely be during my fertile time.. Then I realised I was being a mad woman hoping this corona business would go on longer! I feel lockdown is quite helpful for baby making..we are both in all the time and I have more time to obsess over opks!

Newbie0818 · 26/04/2020 18:19

@Ltay2 I know haha. I’m ok, got a banging headache (naturally I’m paranoid that I’m getting sick now -.-) and very tired. I’m sure I’ll be back to normal tomorrow.

@Adrianoska thanks 💜

Adrianoska · 26/04/2020 18:12

@Newbie0818 🌺🌺😘❤️

HopefulRobertsons66202 · 26/04/2020 17:16

Pretty sure my ovulation was on CD 16, cycles range from 25-26 days so I'm nervous that I won't have enough time for implantation 😩 taking B6 to see if it makes a difference in LP and progesterone. Think I may call the doc tomorrow and ask what they think!

Florence13 · 26/04/2020 17:06

Hey,

Can I join you all? Had a crazy last cycle but AF has finally arrived today so hopping on this bus and hoping for a better cycle this month.

Ltay2 · 26/04/2020 17:00

@Newbie0818 Haha bless him! At least he had the sense to bring food 😜 hope you are feeling a bit better!
