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???

Hey @Gab101 I'm due either 24/25 I will start testing on 20th maybe might try one on the Sunday. I know I'm so eager to try testing but I know that baby probably hasn't implanted yet. Last month I started testing early and went through about 7or 8 test lucky on IC (one steps) but every time you get a BPN it hurts so try holding off as long as you can just so you don't disappoint yourself. That's why I'm going to try hold off til the 20th even then that's probably still too early but we shall see. I feel like maybe something is happening this month but don't want to get excited as I thought I was last month and was so disappointed when AF arrived.

@Rjbp20 I think it affected everybody is some way. Hopefully you get them back on track and they end up being beautiful wedding days girls. My brother is thinking about having just the ceremony with my mum and her parents and then have a big party later on when everyone can come.

Hey! Sorry I am trying to work out how to use this properly I'm new here! ConfusedGrin

Anyone due AF on 25/7/20? I wish it was later and I could test! I'm so inpatient. What date is the earliest we can test?

Hope everyone has a lovely day! X

Rjbp20 · 14/07/2020 08:05

@Tiff94 ah brilliant. Thank you will definitely give them both a go!

Oh Noo! It’s really affected your plans too. It’s just crazy isn’t it x

Rjbp20 · 14/07/2020 08:02

@BabyH88 ah of course! It’s currently this September but I imagine we’ll postpone again. Same plan though, we’d the. Push it back to August and hopefully manage to have a baby in the meantime x

@Rjbp20 try using femometer and Ovia they both seem good like @Alice222 Saïd femometer is great for scanning in your OPKs I found it great this month. If you both want to try Ovia go for it I live it because when you enter symptoms it actually gives you information about it will post a pic to show you . Definitely hoping for a speedy TWW either Thought I'm sure I will start testing in 7days haha 😂 sorry you hear about the weddings girls. So many people have had to cancel or delayed because of coronavirus. Myself and hubby were suppose to travel to Australia in September for my brothers wedding he had to cancel also now no idea when it's happening and not sure I will be able to go once we get pregnant but I couldn't wait any longer. We were going to start trying once we moved back to Australia and got settled now that's been delayed no idea how long so that's when I told hubby I want a baby now. Haha 😂

Hey 👋 @Gab101 welcome to the group 👋

@Rjbp20 yea we were due to get married in August so we are trying a bit earlier than we had planned, but because we are getting married next August we have a window to get pregnant as I don't want to be due or heavily pregnant for the wedding.

Do you have another date planned?

Hey!

Hope it's ok if I join in on the convo. Grin

I'm 3 DPO TTC #1. Had my mirena IUD removed, got my first period and then started and used clear blue digital OPK's, detected my surge and now in the TWW! Reallllly hoping I'm pregnant.

So far I've had extremely weird dreams, had major fatigue and sore breasts. Hoping they are connected to a little baby inside! DaffodilFlowers but I know it's super early.

Baby dust to you all! Love reading through everyone else's stories xo

Rjbp20 · 13/07/2020 21:35

@Alice222 ah thank you for the advice. I’ll download Femometer!

Ah sorry to hear that! Wishing you a speedy recovery

Rjbp20 · 13/07/2020 21:33

@BabyH88 ah thank you! Sorry to you too. It sucks doesn’t it. What was the hardest is that we were meant to get arrived in June and then try to conceive. I couldn’t wait any longer hence the trying now!

Rjbp20 · 13/07/2020 21:32

At least I think it’s EWCM 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m very new to this!

Yes hoping a speedy TWW for us all!

Alice222 · 13/07/2020 19:47

@Rjbp20 hello! I’ve been using Flo and Femometer. I have been finding Femometer is better for me. I like that you can take pics of your opks and tells you if they are getting darker as sometimes it’s hard to tell. I’ve never tried Ovia.

I thought I felt ovulation this time by a pain in my side. But now I’ve been told I have a UTI so that’s messed up all my symptom spotting 🙄

BabyH88 · 13/07/2020 19:27

@Rjbp20 sorry to hear you had to postpone your wedding as well, hope you are still feeling positive about it.
Hopefully this month is your month x

@Rjbp20 well if you've had EWCM that's definitely a great sign. Yes all I'm doing is googling haha 😂 hopefully it goes past quickly for us all

OP posts:
Rjbp20 · 13/07/2020 17:42

@Tiff94 hey Hun! I’m pretty sure I’ve had EWCM for a couple of days but I wouldn’t say I’ve noticed anything else.

This TWW is crazy long though isn’t it!

@Rjbp20 hey 👋 do you get many symptoms around ovulation to give you an idea? Fingers crossed 🤞 it worked this month for you. AF expected for me in 10/11days too. Baby dust to everyone hopefully we get lots of BFP coming soon

OP posts:
Rjbp20 · 13/07/2020 17:28

Hey!

We’re month 1 after postponing our wedding too. Using flo to track which, from reading I’m not sure is so accurate. 11 days until my period so we shall see

BabyH88 · 13/07/2020 17:11

@Tiff94 Thank you xx

@BabyH88 if you have time enter all you data from the previous app to Ovia. A years worth of data will be plenty to help and Ovia is great with when enter symptoms it will updates your fertile window if it thinks it changes. Add as much information as you can and they give you good details about everything

Alice222 · 13/07/2020 17:03

Hey All! Hope you don’t mind me joining!

I am currently in my first ever 2WW so this is exciting though I’m a little nervous, I have never known the days to go so slow.

I came off the pill in February and my cycle has been all over the place since so this month I didn’t ovulate until CD62 so not sure how that affects my chances. OPK and Bbt confirmed the 10th July anyway so we shall see, 3DPO today.

Planning on waiting to test on the 20th! If I can wait that long Grin

BabyH88 · 13/07/2020 16:48

@Tiff94 I have been tracking my periods since I came off the pill May last year so I think that information is pretty accurate now on my app, clue isn't as detailed so I have just downloaded Ovia and that has a lot of things you can input. I think being our first month it is going to trial and error. I will update you if there are any changes or more questions lol
