Ovulation/TTC continued

@hoola23 bless chick. Honestly it's such a shit time TTC after a while. There are such highs and lows - sometimes I'm so positive and just very down to earth, and then other times I'm just like what's the bloody point?! And I want to throw in the towel.

Think DH was feeling very very guilty about what happened yesterday, so we did actually end up DTD but it was in no shape or form a ticking off box situation. Was like back in the old days when we weren't married and had all the time in the world 🙂🙂

Trouble is DD had a shit nights sleep so I can guarantee that we won't DTD tonight. I wish these OPK's could literally tell you when you are ovulating 😂 like the precise day etc! Xxx

@CShandy01 I hate it when it feels like that. I've forced myself to have sex so many times and it always feels rubbish. Forget today and try and get in there tomo hun

Yeah I'm very negative right now. I had really bigged up this month as the one but with an early ovulation it's thrown me. Only good thing is that my cycle is shorter this month so I'll learn of my failure 3 days earlier 🤣

@Aims1991 @hoola23 I'm with you guys on the no confidence thing. Got that static smiley this morning, we tried to DTD when DD was in bed, but DH had messed up his insulin injection and had given himself too much, so he actually was totally spaced out and border line hypo during sex, so we never finished and he just fizzled out. He's finally back on planet earth and it's me who can't be arsed now. I was super super excited and really wanting it earlier, now it'll just be a case of ticking off a box and I really don't want that 😔 doesn't help that I don't know when I'll ovulate - could be this evening, tomorrow, Tuesday...haven't a bloody clue!

@GemB03 That's interesting to know. Funnily enough we skipped yesterday because I fell asleep last night🙈 I woke up this morning and said it's the first thing we had to do today was DTD🤣 this is the first
Month in a while I've not felt confident it'll happen.

@Aims1991 yeah when we said we DTD everyday around ovulation they said it could actually work against us cus there isn't enough time for good sperm to regenerate or something. So they advised every 2-3 days. But right away I told my OH that 3 days was never happening 🤣 far too long!

It seems counter productive to me but we went for their advice so my OH is now adamant we take it 😩

@GemB03 didn't know doctors would say not to DTD a lot. But great news on your peak

I've just got a peak on my opk! Never ovulated so early before, strange! Only CD13. We managed to DTD yesterday so will do tomorrow too. So tempted to go again tonight but the doc warned us to not DTD daily due to sperm quality. Hard not to when you know it's time though 🤣

@Aims1991 maybe you're not testing close enough. I do so many of them so that's prob why 🤣 on the cheapies I get how, high peak, high, low but if you go peak to low I don't think that means anything. Plus all your bloods were good so you know there's no issues with ovulation for you x

@hoola23 I've never had it before with them. I got from low to peak to low again 🙈

@Aims1991 I've those too. Sometimes I get peak for 3 days on those - it should prob decrease back to high this eve maybe. Defo DTD today if you can too tho x

@hoola23 I use easy at home opks and when I get a peak I use cb to see the smiley face🤣

@Aims1991 interesting! Which test do you use? I think the cb ones only ever give you two days but I rarely test after my first peak! Get going ASAP! X

So this morning I got another peak which I have never ever had for 3 days🤷🏻‍♀️ is this normal

@CShandy01 I get that with the purple CB! I go from nothing to static in a day.

@CShandy01 bad 🤣 I rarely drink and this morning is my reason why!!

Yeah I used to get high then peak but recently it's low and then bam peak. Apparently the rise in lh and oestrogen can happen at the same time and it's nothing to worry about. If you're getting ewcm before your peak I wouldn't worry.

I've defo not been successful this month. Going to try and DTD again tonight as I still have ewcm and my cervix feels open still but pretty sure I ovulated yesterday and it will be too late. Chances of any decent sperm hanging out in the tubes is low I think. So annoyed!!!

Oh I also meant to ask....if anyone has used that clear blue purple OPK that tracks 2 hormones - is it normal to go from nothing straight to peak and not have any high days? I've never used this one (only ever used the pink one) so I'm a bit confused. Not sure if it's a good or a bad thing...

@Aims1991 you'll be fine if you do it sometime today 🙂🙂 it's so hard when you know it's ovulation or it's so close and you just want to maximise your chances. I've never experienced something so frustrating.

@hoola23 hows the hangover this morning?? 😂 Sounds like you had a cracking night out though. I think sometimes we really just need to let our hair down and have a good time during this TTC journey.

Well yesterday it was a bit fat circle on my digital advanced clear blue thing, and then this morning BAM! Static smiley face. I was like WAAAHHHHHHH?!!! So theoretically speaking if I ovulate in 2 days time then that will be CD19, which is 5 days later than a normal cycle (and I started to bleed 5 days after AF was due) so it might be the start of going back to normal.

We're out all day today so we're planning on DTD tonight, tomorrow night and hopefully Tuesday as well. Last time I got pregnant we only DTD 3 times - Friday through to Sunday and I'm pretty sure I ovulated on the Sunday. Xx

Morning all. I'm so annoyed with myself I fell asleep mega early last night whilst my OH was picking my mum up from a night out and we didn't manage to DTD! I woke up this morning so annoyed with myself. My app says today is day of OV! So we DTD this morning to hopefully help our chances.

@GemB03 although I had a good night, however there is zero chance of any baby developing! Fuming! DH is with his two brothers in our summer house having a great time after his gig! I'm off to bed spermless this eve. Maybe I'm just destined to be a cat mum 🤣🤣

@hoola23 🤣🤣 hope you've had a good night!!

Ok I'm very very drunk at my DH husbands gig lol he's performing tonight and I've been dancing all night I hope that burns some calories for all the
Wine I've drunk. Defo no chance of a shag tonight so I'm with all the next month cycles. No way I'll get pregnant with this much alcohol in me!

@hoola23 Aw that sucks! I know how you feel my OH can be awkward at times when he knows we really need to do it. It's like they find it funny 🙄

Text not test 🤣

@CShandy01 @GemB03 the rage inside me right now 🤣🤣🤣 I even test him last night to say FYI you need to be on your a game as we need to have sex during the day. Still he chooses to ignore that. He's just said well do it tonight but I know him, not a chance 🤣
