TTC May/June - may the eggs be ever in your favour

Hey @cyclogoose! Think you need a good rest 😴 buddy is so adorable. Bloody ovaries, how dare they?! The good thing is late ovulation won't make a difference to a healthy pregnancy, hopefully they get their act together soon.

@KayL1988 same for you! A week late is better than never. I've had a few later than normal ovulations recently, don't know this month as not been tracking but last month was like 4 weeks into the cycle, wish I was a standard 28 day 😂😭

Speaking of 28 day cycles... Just checked my app and I'm on CD28. Based on my normal (ha) cycles from the last few months, AF is due in about a week I think? Anyone else in TWW territory? Not symptom spotting at all as no idea when ovulation was, well not had a single thing anyway 😂 X x

Oh good to know @CycloGoose. My levels today are looking high so maybe now is the time and it's just a week late. Hopefully you peak soon - and at least you've got some covid protection!

@KayL1988 maybe started too late this month! You'll probably get a better idea when you (if you) start on a fresh cycle.

I've had a lovely Sunday and a great weekend all round! Had a nice takeaway, some wine and saw family, a Sunday well spent brings a week of content as they say ✨ here's to a good week 😘

@kaylsd hope you feel a bit better now. Hangovers are the worst!!!!

@minthumbugs I've tested this morning and my LH levels look like they've increased again a bit but not ovulating. I'm so curious for next month as to when I ovulate!

How is everyone's Sunday?? Xx

Oooh @KayL1988 have you done another one since? I'm not sure, my ovulation dates are a bit unreliable so maybe up to 2 weeks out from where it's set! X

Strange @MammaJ21, come join us on the chill train for a while maybe? 🤣 Thank you lovely!

@kaylsd that's all the signs of a good night 😏 you and your friends sound like my kinda gals, straight onto justeat for you today 😅

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend. X x

@minthumbugs Thanks lovely I'll keep you guys posted with everything as normal on Wednesday hope you've had a lovely weekend ✨✨

@KayL1988 I used to find when I had a positive OPK I tend to show signs of ovulation for around 2 days after it but my positive OPK only used to last one day and used to try baby dance every other day around it :) I tried SMEP but found it too tiring and regimental 🙈

I'm not gonna lie I'm hanging out of my bottom today, had waayyyy too much what turned into garden drinks from 1 o clock lasted until half 11 last night and ended the evening singing baby cakes 😂😂😂 so I need greasy food and paracetamol with plenty of water today... the hangover life is not for me 🙈 hope your all having a lovely weekend! Xx

So who knows. Hopefully it'll pick back up again?

Hope you enjoyed the wine! Happy anniversary too

sending positive vibes to all x

Random question! All my apps say I should have ovulated or be ovulating now - but my ovulation tests show I'm still low - if anything it's got lower over last few days. I've not been able to test the whole month because I was away... just curious as to how far from the norm your usual ovulation date is??

Yes @kaylsd! Now I can pee without thinking about it, ahhhhh bliss 🤣 the best thing about it though is not knowing if I'm in the TWW and when because I'm not obsessing over it, this is definitely the way forward for me for a while I think. I'm soooo happy that you have your appointment next week, hope it goes well 🤞🏻

[quote MammaJ21]@kaylsd Thanks. hoping it is soon. although today's test has dipped from yesterday..why is it so confusing?!
Can't believe they didn't tell you before you had to drive , but glad the week is over and you can relax and enjoy. Really lovely gifts too!

@minthumbugs no worries...not sure I'll continue using it to be honest but will stick at it this cycle 🙈

Happy weekend everyone. Hope you're all doing ok x[/quote]
Thank you lovey lady, how are you getting along, did you manage to get your peak in the end and enjoy the baby dance along the way or isit playing Hokey Cokey from positive to negative?

On a lighter note happy anniversary to you guys I hope you have a beautiful weekend together with your movie night 🥰😘 I had a little giggle at the confusion of the names I can see slightly 😂 loving all the newbies on this thread through keeping it going with the OG gang 🥰✨

You confused me for a minute there @KayL1988, we have a @kaylsd on here and I thought she had changed her name for a sec, was like what???? 🤣

It's definitely one of those things no one speaks about. I think the only person who would be properly supportive for me IRL is my best friend but she's single and not really thinking about kids yet! Where I'm at in the journey is trying for baba no. 2, I have an almost 2 year old already and had a miscarriage in January. Going for it with one tube too as I've had an ectopic as well. It's been a heartbreaking journey but I'm holding onto hope for my next rainbow 🌈🤞🏻hope your journey is a quick and easy one!

Hi @user1468845946 👋🏻 you sound like you're all sorted and ready to go! There's plenty of moral support to go round here ✨ good luck. X

Hi All! Hoping to join in if I can? Just started TTC this month, got conception vitamins, ovulation kit and tracking my cycle! Feel like I need the moral support from everyone - honestly feel like the conception journey is spoken about enough so I've took a sharp learning curve!

Omg I've missed a lot! I'm sitting on the couch with a very large glass of wine and some snacks and catching up, here we go 🍷

@MammaJ21 did you get your positive OPK? How are you getting on?

@kaylsd ugh sorry work has still been shit for you! Enjoy the BBQ at the weekend, that will definitely have been something to get you through. Your results sound as if they are very borderline? That's almost more frustrating than just coming back saying yes PCOS! Glad you have a consultation booked already though so they can go through what happens now with you. Grating ovaries 🤢 I feel sick!!! I'm doing ok here, do you know what I am absolutely loving the stress free life. I've had a wee look at my RHR which has had a dip then went up then another dip? So that suggests ovulation has happened but no idea what the dip is, and my app is predicting it some time this weekend but I've already had all the signs. So tbh I'm somewhere between almost at the end of the follicular phase up to 5dpo I think 🤣 I couldn't even hazard a guess! That is soooo lovely what your coworker did for you, crying!!!! What a sweet gesture that really means a lot 😘

Hey @justwant2beamum how's it going? I think we are all the same with work just now, all having a hectic time of it! Where are you in your cycle?

Sorry @tangfastic91, that's shit 😩 you're not completely out yet though and stranger things have happened. Easier said than done, stay away from the tests until next week! And as @kaylsd says we will be here waiting to provide congrats or support either way ❤️

Sorry you're feeling down @lunalove14 I definitely get that. It's really frustrating when you're ready and your body's not. I think a year is just a safe bet, that's obviously not ruling it happening earlier out! Tracking ovulation might give you an insight into if it's happening already and when so you can get a better idea of your body. Sorry to hear about your MC, I had similar circumstances, fell pregnant on the pill when I had an ectopic pregnancy. Life is just shit sometimes!

@CycloGoose hope all is good with you, happy Friday finally!!

Phewww, think I read everyone's messages! It's me and my partner's anniversary tomorrow and I thought I would have finished all my work but I haven't 😩 but we're going to have some quiet celebrations with some cocktails and a movie night tomorrow ❤️ so looking forward to it and if it is the case that ovulation is at the weekend well I don't think I'll be complaining! 🤣

@kaylsd Thanks. hoping it is soon. although today's test has dipped from yesterday..why is it so confusing?!
Can't believe they didn't tell you before you had to drive , but glad the week is over and you can relax and enjoy. Really lovely gifts too!

@minthumbugs no worries...not sure I'll continue using it to be honest but will stick at it this cycle 🙈

Happy weekend everyone. Hope you're all doing ok x

Well I can honestly say my horrendous week at work has finally finished!!! It's been a shocker, they moved me again to cover other area which is 30 mile from my house and then when I got there after a 55 min drive to tell me they've moved me again which was 15 mile difference closer! I had steam coming out of my ears but that's not even half of it :')

BUT

There's always light at the end of the tunnel, I'm off for the weekend got plans all weekend and many of the team I'm in right now is wanting new job or leaving and one of the girls who's leaving despite me being there only 6 month has bought me a present to say thank you for everything which made me cry my eyes out... she got me a Lilly plant & candles which is a strong go to point for me candles and plants but the part what made my cry she bought me a little comforter for our maybe baby in the future as she says I know we're going through a hard time right now with our journey for a baby but this is a little bit of hope and light that keep going as you are as I'm sure you will be able to get what you wish for one day - I cried and she cried with me 🙈🙈

Hope you have an amazing weekend ladies if I end up being a little bit quiet no doubt I'll be merry as anything in my friends garden drowning in gin and treat day food😘🍷

Thanks @kaylsd! @lunalove14 fingers crossed your body starts playing ball soon and you can throw yourself into the joys of the TWW 😂. Sorry to hear about your loss too
