TTC after MC - June 2020

Yeah @VP91x I think I realised I was stressing more about it last month than I’d have admitted. So this month I’m just going to go with the flow, I think generally we cover ourselves well. I will try to get 3 days around ovulation though. I wasn’t even thinking about it when we fell last time.

How’s the grapefruit juice? 🍈 xx

@Jazper sorry to hear you has a bad day, sending lots of love.
It’s strange isn’t it!? Think I’d rather AF turn up than see the BFN 😢 xx

@MichT4 ah, to be honest sometimes it is so much better to not have a real plan as it can stress you out.

Yeah I done SMEP last month, and will try again this month. You do your 3 day stint from the day of your peak result on a OPK or static smiley on the CB tests xx

Agree @Dipsy77 the bfn's are soul destroying. I had an awful day yesterday after mine.
Hopefully af won't rear her ugly head and you can test again. Xx

@VP91x do you follow SMEP? Which day are you supposed to start the 3 day run? xx

@VP91x I think sort of, but not to the letter and more by chance because I haven’t actually been tracking ovulation with the OPKs or anything. Last month we DTD a lot through the month, which was fun, but I’d get stressed if we missed a session or something so I think it wasn’t the right headspace. So far this month we are DTD every other day at least anyway, might have been two days in a row and then skipped a day, just when we want to. I think in the fertile window we might do every day, but no pressure, as long as a few days in a row near ovulation maybe.

Basically a long answer to no real plan 😂

@Dipsy77 hopefully AF stays away and you can test again in a few days. Have my fingers crossed for you xx

@MichT4 haha, imagine if they did that. Yeah it might move it again depending on your temp shifts. Are you just DTD every other day? So sorry I forgot if you said you were doing SMEP or anything xx

@VP91x temps are all over the place hence why I have the Ava coming, hopefully it will help next month x

Good morning ☺️

Lovely news on the house @Bellabubble, except the WiFi and 4G. Nice to have a forced break from tech though!

I’m with you @VP91x, I have typically, I think, been ovulating around CD22, which both my old apps have me at this month. However interestingly Ava has shifted my fertile window to start today, which means predicted ovulation on CD18 🤔. Obviously only my first month of data so I’m expecting that to move. Maybe OH has programmed it to show my fertile window being adjusted to last a couple of weeks 🤪.

Happy Friday to you all 💕 xxx

@Dipsy77 does your temp show any indication at all? I hope your LO starts to sleep better too.

But it could very well be the next day, its between 12-36hrs isnt it xx

@Bellabubble ah amazing, glad it has gone well. Especially under the circumstances where you can't just keep popping out to get certain bits or things haven't been open. Hopefully you get to enjoy shopping for those last bits 😊

Haha, yeah enjoy your dirty weekend 😉

I'm okay! CD6 on the last day of AF. I think I still have another long wait for peak though. Last month was CD21 😴😴 xx

@VP91x I had my peak on the 25th then back to high on the 26th so could be either day I suppose had symptoms both days temping not great due to sleepless nights with D.D. so not reliable xx

@vp91x Heya!! The move has gone pretty well - I was lucky enough to have stashed away a lot of house bits over the years we were at my parents, but there’s still so many other essentials that I just didn’t have (luckily my mum is a hirder so we managed to collect some bits that way too lol!) it’s lovely to have our own space though!! I think my peak is likely to be Saturday, the last 2 months I have done it, it suddenly goes really dark, then back to light pretty much the next day! Pretty handy as that way we have the whole weekend to dtd and can hopefully aboid any nosebleeds 😂 How are you doing? x

@Bellabubble hey 👋

How is the move going? Ah sorry that he isn't having much luck with the hayfever. How crappy that it causes nosebleeds!! 😩

When are you expecting to peak? They are getting darker so can't be too far off.

@chloedancer897 welcome to the group. Sorry that you're having such a long TTC journey and you have suffered a MC so recently. How frustrating that it was cancelled. Do you have any idea when they might be starting again?

I hope you get your static smiley soon!! Xx

@Dipsy77 ahh, what day do you think you have OV'd? Sorry it was BFN, either way it is still early. But definitely try and see if you can hold off until AF or day before ❤️

Tested this morning on a FRER and BFN. One app says I'm 10DPO and the other 11. I'm not doing another test I'm just going to wait for AF now as seeing the BFN is too depressing x

Hi everyone, hope you don’t mind me jumping on the thread. I’m TTC after a MC at 5 weeks with #3. We’ve been trying for 3 years to get pregnant. I was on the list for IVF but was cancelled due to coronavirus. Last month was my first BFP test since trying so I was so over the moon but miscarried 5 weeks later. This is my first cycle since MC and I had my CB flashy smiley face yesterday so I’m hoping this month is it.

Thank you all for your lovely tips. Going out to buy some grapefruit juice tomorrow!

Hoping for lots of BFP for everyone this month! 🙏

Ahh I have missed so much!! New house doesn’t have the internet yet and the 4G is awful! At work lots forums are blocked (primary school so e-safety stuff) and the 4G there is pants too!

I feel like I’m missing out on the grapefruit jucie tip! I do have calc fluor wsitong for the tww this time, and started taking coQ10! Hubby is currently struggling with baaaaaad hayfever - he’s been getting really bad nosebleeds (he is a gusher!) so dtd hasn’t happened much this week as it seems to bring them on 😕 although I’m cd13 and still have negative opks - so there’s still time!! We’ll just jave to deal with it when I get the peak!!

Thank you hun xx @HE88

@SmileyT started the calc fluor today took 2 this morning and 2 this evening hopefully that will be enough! Xx

@Renna fingers crossed for the job. Xx

@SmileyT pineapple and sesame seeds added to list 😂 🍍🍍🍍 xx

@MichT4 I'll have a glass from tomorrow then 🍷😂

@Renna enjoy all the ovulation sex! 💦

@SmileyT thanks! I've just managed to get her to sleep. She normally goes to bed at 7 but she's been having none of it today. Bet she will still be up at 530 😭.

I might get onto the pineapple when I'm in TWW cant hurt! Xx

Thanks @DisneyMummySince2010 lovely to hear success stories. Congrats! X

@SmileyT I'm good babe just in the waiting game - not sure but I THINK I'm in my TWW. Not been testing but my app says I would have ovulated on Monday. Will test on the 15th as AF is due 19th

FX xx

Just saw this in Insta, thought it was worth a post. Nothing groundbreaking but just always interesting to read things (I think) 🤓

Oh and @VP91x, well done for remembering it! 🥳🥳. I don’t know how much you are meant to drink to be honest. I just have a glass ish a day at the moment xx
