Lockdown baby making...?!?!

@1992EM It would be awesome if we could have "ding ding" ovulation occurred. "Ding ding" egg fertilised. "Ding ding" implantation 🤣🤣🤣

@Smushty14 Fingers crossed . Will see what happens . I wish we could look inside our bodies and see what is happening.

@1992EM I feel exactly the same 🤣🎄Ooh thats positive! Hopefully it stays the same tomorrow and by the end of this week we have some great news!!

@GeorgiaMcGraw That's good that you think you have done the deed on the right days. Fingers crossed this month is the month

Hi everyone, month 4 of ttc here. Started using opk, i didn't realise it would only show up a line 24 hrs before ovulation. I may just have a v cheap brand though. I'm pretty sure we've been dtd in the right days of the month though, but wanted the reassurance of opk. It's been dispiriting, 2 months I've had implantation bleeds and lots of symptoms, then AF comes along! Fingers crossed we all get sone happy results during lockdown/tiers/whatever the feck happens next!

@Smushty I can't wait to get my tree up . I love Christmas and feel I may as well go all out since it has been a rubbish year anyway 🤣 any excuse.

11dpo and really dizzy today . Nothing much else but had no spotting which is unusual as according to flo each month I have always had spotting on 11dpo and 12dpo and then AF comes on 13dpo . Trying not to get my hopes up though x

@1992EM I wish I was close to testing 🤣 I feel like Black Friday may be a stock up day of tests and bits. 6dpo today, I feel a bit different but can't put my finger on it. Probably absolutely nothing but good old symptom spotting!

I must admit I am looking forward to putting the tree up. My partner has already eaten an entire tub of celebrations so part of me wants to replace it and then part of me thinks well they are only going to get eaten anyway!

@2021hopeful This two week wait really does suck... if only someone could invent a way to know immediately whether it worked or not - us ladies would spend a fortune to not have to wait

@2021hopeful sorry to hear you feel this way. You may have not implanted yet . It is still very early. I am actually due AF on Wednesday but won't test unless AF isn't here so first day I can test is Saturday as I don't like testing if I am going to work. Right now I am just assuming AF will start on Wednesday or Thursday. I am the same and would love to end this year with something positive. We are putting our tree up at the weekend and it is my partners birthday in a couple of weeks so would be lovely to have some good news .

How is everybody? Anyone close to testing?
I am 9dpo today and not planning to test until a week today (if AF has not shown by then ). Symptom spotting as usual x

Is anyone else trying for number 3 (or 4!)? I had an unplanned pregnancy that ended in m/c which was a total shock all round and then prompted us into actually trying for another child. We already have two boys who are 3 and 6 so decided to see what happens, so far that has ended in a chemical pregnancy and this is month two. I am feeling like if it doesn't happen this month I might just decided it really wasn't meant to be.

@2021hopeful unfortunately I think I'll be a bit too early for a birthday positive but we shall see!

Ooh only 4 days ahead of me! Have you decided when to test then?

Hopefully the blood test goes well!

@sakuramiyagi I'm so sorry lovely. It's not easy at all. I had a medical management around 7 years ago and unfortunately it didn't work and I had to go in for a D&C. I do wish I had just had the D&C in the first place x

Sadly no lockdown baby making for us as it transpired I still have retained endometrium after a medical management and an NVA.

I've been told I need to go back on Tuesday for another scan & internal, then they will decide if I can get a D&C. Genuinely at my wits end at the moment.

Feeling so hopeless

Oh I also reckon I'm 2 dpo but as I didn't do any tests I can't know for sure

@2021hopeful Are we really half way already?!

All good here! I think we have had a good month this time, now CD16 but trying to think positively and eat all the pineapple.

9 days to go until my birthday too 🎉

How are you getting on?

@Smusty14 hopefully you get your peak soon. Scotland looks like it will be in a lockdown next week or at least the area I live in will be. I have made the most of being able to get Christmas things this weekend 🤣.

Not much going on here either. Currently CD11 and got such a thrilling weekend in lockdown 🤣 nooooot!

Hope you ladies are well!

@2021hopeful I hope all goes well with your tests. 2dpo here and fed up of the tww already. I am feeling really dizzy the last day or so (obviously not related) I wear glasses normally but have to now wear contacts as I need to wear a mask all day and think the combination of both is making me feel rubbish by the end of the day 🙈 I also had the flu jag this week so could be that and due my b12 jag on Monday so also could be that 🤣. My partner and I have agreed to take a few nights off dtd as we are both exhausted 🤣 . We have given it our all this month so hopefully pays off. X

Had my peak today . Which I am glad about as means I will hopefully ovulate tomorrow. We have dtd the last 3 days and will tomorrow. Hopefully that will cover all basis.

I've got easy@home for this month--with the pre mom app to take pics of the test.

DH on furlough again so we're going to try for twice a day during the peak, also going to use my mooncup and eat pineapple core every day for 5 days after ov.

Going all guns this month 🤣

Thank you @2021hopeful and @1992EM. Hopefully the clear blue ones will pop up on a deal in the Black Friday sales so I can use a combination. Hope you all have a lovely day x

@ALB1990 I use one step opks from Amazon. Clearblue ones are definitely the best but so expensive. I got one pack a few months ago in a deal and only use these when I hit peak on one step to confirm it and it always has. CB is easier to read as you either have a smiley face or a blank face so you can't go wrong.

My oh has done this to me in the past too . Its hard as I don't think they fully get you have such a small window and just think dtd whenever is fine.
