Don’t know what I’m doing with the emojis this time!

Who else is on for Jan? When would you be due?

I’m on cycle day 1 boooooo. Due to ovulate 2nd May. I think is due date 24th January.

So I’ll be testing around 15th May

@Charl881 can you ever truly relax in early pregnancy? No cramps so far and a bit of sickness. I just wake up every morning waiting for brown staining..the beginning of the end..I've been here before. I'll pluck up some courage and do a clearblue indicator one soon xx

MrsGrealish · 12/05/2022 10:24

@BiscuitLover3678 oh I will definitely test again..the Greek clearblue had a weeks indicator one included..I'm too scared to use it in case it says 'not pregnant' can't deal with that heartbreak at the moment ❤️‍🩹
My DH is a NIGHTMARE at fertile week. Just no interest. I've DTD 2 days in a row now and have finally put my foot down. My cervix is so easily irritated and I don't need spotting to worry about too 😩

Charl881 · 12/05/2022 09:52

@MrsGrealish CD 16 and I usually ovulate between 15 and 17, don’t think I have yet! Had EWCM on CD 14 and 15 so DTD on both of those days.

Hope you’re having a lovely holiday and are able to relax a bit!

@BiscuitLover3678 I know what you mean, it’s the lack of hope that kills you!

BiscuitLover3678 · 12/05/2022 09:16

I wish mine wanted to do it more! I always have to remind him it’s fertile week.

really hoping for you @Charl881 !!

Im not even testing today as it’s making me so down. I’d rather live in pretend world where I can’t know.

are you going to keep testing to see the line grow @MrsGrealish or are you going to leave it now?

mydarlingqueen · 12/05/2022 02:26

@MrsGrealish haha men are! My husband LOVES TTC, because it means DTD far more often than normal hahah Since I don't even know the exact day of ovulation each month (I've just not had good luck with opks and knowing what's +) we've committed to DTD every single day from CD10-22 😅😪If this doesnt do it imma be so upset haha.

@Charl881 good luck and hope your holiday conception luck keeps going! Fingers crossed!

@ElleBelleLou so sorry girlie, definitely sending you lots of hugs <3

The last 3 days I've just been so sore, crampy but sometimes it's one sided, so idk what's going on but I'm hoping that's a good sign? I'm on CD24 so it seems a little too early for AF cramps, but I guess we'll see. I ordered tests and they were supposed to be here TODAY. Go to look online and they said "running a bit late" and now aren't going to be here until either tomorrow or the next day. Wah there goes early testing, probably for the best anyways..

MrsGrealish · 11/05/2022 20:25

@Charl881 men are donkeys..we went on holiday when our 2 boys were little ended up DTD in the bloody bathroom. Ideal 😂 what CD are you on? Just work with the EWCM mine started the day this bean was conceived yet my ovulation test was 0.22 so I was sure it was too early 🤷‍♀️wishing you soo much luck 😘

Charl881 · 11/05/2022 20:15

@MrsGrealish Oh no, typical it’s worn off now 😂 My OH asked when my ovulation day was today so he obviously doesn’t have a clue that the reason I’m trying to cram in DTD while on holiday with a toddler is because it’s my fertile period.

DTD today and yesterday, I don’t think I’ll ovulate any later than Friday unless I have an abnormal cycle so hopefully in with a proper chance this month even if we don’t get chance to DTD again.

We conceived my DS on holiday so in my mind it’s meant to be but keep telling myself not to be disappointed if it doesn’t happen

Bubblesandballoons · 11/05/2022 17:57

I’m so sorry. Another handhold here.

BiscuitLover3678 · 11/05/2022 16:44

ElleBelleLou · 11/05/2022 15:55

Could do with a bit of a handhold today!! I know I'm definitely out for January, BFN and AF symptoms today.

I had a miscarriage in March, found out a colleague was pregnant the exact same time. She's announced her pregnancy to the whole office today and everyone's so cheery and celebrating - I am of course happy for her but I feel so sad and emotional because I should be announcing mine this week too.

TTC just feels like such a hard journey especially today Flowers

I’m so sorry, handhold here 💐

MrsGrealish · 11/05/2022 15:49

@BiscuitLover3678 I know! I saw someone recommended them and thought sure I'll give them a go..wouldn't buy 2 months though xx

BiscuitLover3678 · 11/05/2022 15:18

MrsGrealish · 11/05/2022 13:51

@BiscuitLover3678 xx

Crikey they are expensive! I’ll keep them in my basket and buy if AF shows her ugly head.

Also I don't know if this made any difference but I made DH start taking a wild nutrition fertility multi vitamin about 6 weeks ago. I took the woman's one too but I think they may have helped his swimmers xx

do you have the link for which one?

feel a bit sick but BFN 😓

OP posts:
MrsGrealish · 11/05/2022 09:13

@Charl881 your ovulation symptoms sound exactly like mine..I woke up feeling a bit ropey went back to sleep for half an hr and felt better. Boobs aren't mega sore yet but I've got a super soft crop top on. Still no cramping.

Unfortunately DH stage fright has totally worn off (pray for me) 😂

Charl881 · 11/05/2022 08:15

@mydarlingqueen yeah I usually get around three days of EWCM then ovulation cramps and really sore boobs after. I usually track with OPKs though so interested to see if I think I can tell when I’ve ovulated without using them!

Charl881 · 11/05/2022 08:14

@MrsGrealish ill look into them as DP has ran out of the vitamins he was taking!

how are you feeling this morning?

@BiscuitLover3678 good luck if you’re testing today!

MrsGrealish · 11/05/2022 06:38

TMI for this time in the morning 🙈

@BiscuitLover3678 my tests were very negative at 9 dpo even the easy@home one's. The only slight line I got was with clear blue at 10dpo xx

MrsGrealish · 11/05/2022 06:31

@mydarlingqueen thank you 😊

@Charl881 CD8 though remember we tried on CD10 after the positive LH strip unless some slipped out then 🤷‍♀️ DH said it didn't

mydarlingqueen · 10/05/2022 21:20

@MrsGrealish AH!! congrats!!

@BiscuitLover3678 What DPO are you? good luck on your test tomrrow!! <3

@Charl881 - do you always get ovulation signs? I used to get them every cycle and the last 2 have been barely there, but cycles still 28days so I'm assuming I am ovulating, but I always felt far more confident when it was big cramps that let me know haha

I'm on CD23- unsure where ovulation was this cycle although I had right sided sensitivity during bding during the 4th-6th (Cd16-18) so assuming it was somewhere in there Which would you guys assume? The last day of pains, or first? I'm anxious to test, but I'm starting to feel meh this month. TTC always takes me so long, and I'm getting tired of all the BFNS.

Charl881 · 10/05/2022 21:09

@MrsGrealish how many days before ovulation was that one day?

I’m on CD14 today. Usually ovulate on 16/17 although no signs but that might be because I’m holiday.

BiscuitLover3678 · 10/05/2022 20:15

MrsGrealish · 10/05/2022 19:29

@Charl881 Turns out once was enough😂 oh I'll be sticking around to see you ladies get your bfps xx

Are you testing tomorrow @BiscuitLover3678? If so good luck 🤞🤞🙏🙏 xx

I love it! I guess you must have picked the perfect day!

I think I’ll probably test tomorrow although a part of me wants to wait until Thursday as it might be too early and not sure I’m ready for a BFN. Obviously I’ll almost definitely test.
