Anyone else ttc #2? Thread 2

I temped last month and won’t be doing it again next cycle. It stressed me out and was just something else to become obsessed with along with the OPKs! When the Fertility Friend app said I ovulated was several days earlier than when I got positive OPKs and my temp has stayed elevated despite starting my period today and having a BFN :( I struggled with being consistent with the time I woke up to take it, sometimes my little boy would wake in the night or id wake in the early hours to drink some water etc. So I don’t think I was ever accurate enough with it. That’s just me though - I’ve seen a lot of success stories on here.

@Chanel05 You need to temp all through your cycle really to be sure. I have used temping for prevention but found it stressful now TTC. I think however I will be doing it this month now I am on month 8 of TTC. x

Still here!

@Chanel05 I've always wanted to try temping but with DD not sleeping well I just can't guarantee it's done well and accurate all the time.

Funny you should say that @FlyOnTheWall89 because mine also occurs when I’m facing downwards (when penetration is deeper I think!) and I definitely noticed it more around ovulation or straight after I’d ovulated this month. Hopefully that’s all it is then, I’m hoping that I’ll relax more about the process once it’s been checked. Thanks for the reassurance x

Hi @Moonshine160 - this sounds exactly like what I have and I was sent straight for an internal examination. They couldn’t find anything but confirmed I had ovulated. They said that it was likely to be pain from where the follicle ruptures around the time you ovulate - the fluid that comes with this can cause some irritation. For me, some months it was so painful in some positions that I had to sort of hold/press against my lower stomach. It was worse in any position where I was facing downwards / on my tummy. Might give you some hope that it isn’t anything for sinister. X

I’m still here! Negative test yesterday at 14DPO, still awaiting AF. Only onto cycle 3 now but it’s frustrating when we got pregnant straight away for DS.
I’ve phoned the doctors this morning and have an appointment booked with the nurse as during sex I keep getting a really deep pain on the left and I want it checked out just to rule out there’s not a problem as it’s playing on my mind and making me anxious that there could be a problem or blockage or something! Doesn’t happen every time but I seem to get it depending on sex position and it’s always in the same place. I did mention it to a nurse over a year ago when I had my smear test and she said everything looked ok but there was a fair bit of scarring presumably from the birth of my DS (it was quite a difficult birth, he was stuck and I had to have a deep episiotomy which then got infected). I think I’ll be more relaxed about TTC once it’s been checked, I’m not sure what the nurse will do. I’m assuming she will do an examination but the pain feels deeper than the inside of my vagina. Sorry for all that info!

Place marking so I can spy on you ladies 😊
