Hey everyone,

Anyone else just started ovulation or about to start in the next week. Let's start a chat and keep ourselves busy as we head through ovulation and the dreaded 2WW.

Little about me this is my 2 cycle at TTC Baby no.1 I'm about to start ovulation on fri or sat, so going to make the most of this week. I've ordered some IC ovulation sticks hopefully will arrive in next couple days and I will give them a try out. What is everyone else doing to prepare themselves for ovulation???

@Tiff94

Yeah I was reading something and it said that the contractions caused from BD wether each partners reach climax can cause the egg not to implant. But hoping it's not true, because we BD today and I realised half way through that I'd read that and pushed him off! 😂

I'll definitely read that article!! TESTING TOMORROW. not got my hopes up too high but hoping for the best. Prob to early but I can't bloody wait anymore!! X

Has anyone heard of warm feet warm womb. I've just reading an article about a women who was infertile and did a few things to try boost her fertility. In traditional Chinese medicine they apparently say that a women needs to keep her feet warm so that her womb is warm. If your feet are cold so in your womb.

I've attached a link if anyone wants to take a read. You can also see her other one about the 79things she did to get pregnant.

@Gab101 I was just reading about it there is nothing proving and not many studies to back it up they said it could be a possibility but then there are plenty of couples who went at it during TTW and they conceived fine so I think it's definitely just a theory. But I also read that sex is good if you had IVF and in TTW. Never know... Maybe can try though if we don't end up conceiving.

Is anyone aware of this theory of having sex around implantation time could affect the egg from implanting?

@ohbaby3 fingers crossed it's a good sign for you. It's hard to tell with Cm if it's a sign or not. I ready an increase amount supposedly means your pregnant but both last month and this month I found myself with an increase. So only time will tell I guess

@ohbaby3

I had this a few days ago it shocked me as it was yellow ish, not the norm.

@Butterfly134 I had sensitive nipples last couples days but now that's stopped so no idea what that means

OP posts:
Butterfly134 · 17/07/2020 11:59

Ha! I’m hoping this is pregnancy bloat! I’ve never been this bloated before. Cm is creamy but clear too and a moderate amount. Nothing too crazy happening here! I keep reading if women’s who have breast pain etc, but I am feeling none of that so not sure if it is my lucky month or not Confused

@Rjbp20 breakouts are suppose to be a sign but I always get it before AF too, so you never know.

@butterfly134

Yes I'm extremely bloated also, like I look 6 months pregnant 😂 I've been really tired and TMI sorry ladies but very gassy.. but my Ovia app told me to watch what I'm eating because I logged bloated a couple of times, I was like damnit I want it to be pregnant bloat 😂 have you had much cm? I've just had creamy cm and a medium amount. X
