So I’m out AGAIN!

Trying to move forward.

Anyone else hoping to conceive a Feb baby?

I’d be due around Feb 20th if this month actually does anything!

How is everyone doing? Happy Friday! So glad the weekend is here, ready for a chilled one 😊

1dpo starts tomorrow for me 😬

Managed to dtd 4 nights out of the 6 of my fertile window, think tonight is going to be a night off 🀭🀭

Baby dust to all 🀍

@Charl881 hopefully that's a good sign. My legs are achey and feel particularly tired today. A few back/stomach/pelvis cramps but have had those since coming off the pill so don't think that necessarily means anything! Good luck @Lolly16 !

Charl881 · 20/05/2022 11:57

@tulipsunday same! My boobs feel huge today and painful - they’re always painful after ovulation though so really difficult to tell if they’re any different to be honest.

So glad we’ve almost got the first week out of the way though (I’m 6-8dpo but not sure as didn’t use OPKs this month).

when do you plan on testing?

Hello! My first time posting, hoping I can join. Currently on CD9 of cycle 4 (after the last miscarriage) TTC baby #2. Had 2 early losses, 1 in September last year and 1 in January. I usually ovulate around CD 17/18. Trying to keep positive this month and would have a due date around 18th Feb. Good luck everyone!!

tulipsunday · 20/05/2022 11:17

Only 6DPO and already symptom spotting can't help myself πŸ˜‚ how are others in the two week wait doing?

MamaSJ15 · 20/05/2022 07:37

@Skylark1990 yeah, it's such a shame how common it is. It's so heartbreaking, especially for those who have been trying for a long time.
How long did it take you to conceive your daughter? I would like to think it would take about the same amount second time round but unfortunately that's not usually the case is it.

Skylark1990 · 20/05/2022 07:03

Sorry about your loss too @MamaSJ15 ❀️ it sounds like it's much more common than we originally realise.

That's lovely your daughter just turned 3, a 4 ish year gap will be nice I'm sure. Can understand wanting a small gap, we had expected initially to conceive and have two under two! But then I decided when my DD was 12 months I wasn't ready, so we waited a few months to start TTC then of course haven't had luck since. Hopefully with the nicer weather and feeling a bit better in myself it is the right time now πŸ€žπŸ’–

Curlywurly3 · 20/05/2022 06:43

Morning and happy weekend! 5DPO today, so glad it’s the weekend as I’ll be distracted now until Monday. I had a CB flashing OPK yesterday so I have no idea what that was about πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

MamaSJ15 · 19/05/2022 21:58

Hi @Charl881 I recognise your username too! How are you?
If my cycle returns to 28 days, AF will be due next Thursday, but it may be a few days longer again.

Charl881 · 19/05/2022 20:52

Hi @MamaSJ15 i think I remember you from a thread a few months ago (the 7dpo one). I’m cd23 so similar to you. Didn’t use OPKs this cycle so no idea how many dpo I am but usually ovulate anywhere between 14 and 18. Usually have a 28 day cycle but my last cycle was 30 days and the cycle before that was a chemical so I’m not entirely sure.

MamaSJ15 · 19/05/2022 19:27

@Skylark1990 hello, sorry to hear of your losses, we also had an early loss September time last year. My daughter just turned 3 so hoping it won't take too long to conceive #2, don't want the age gap to be too big.

BanjoVio · 19/05/2022 19:12

BiscuitLover3678 · 18/05/2022 16:02

How is everyone? Bumping our lovely hopeful thread.

af finishing off today so planning on doing opks daily from tomorrow morning so I’m actually organised this month. Also hoping to DTD a lot more! Even from tonight if we can.

haha let’s see if we do!

Doing good! Waiting til the end of May to do a HPT as I want to be able to trust the result. It's really exciting thinking how close we are to the end of the month now!

RMS0209 · 19/05/2022 14:00

@BiscuitLover3678 thanks for replying to me! I seem to have an OK OPK today... 0.64 on premom, will see what 4pm's one is.. would LOVE a normal cycle for once xx

Skylark1990 · 19/05/2022 13:57

I would be due about 21 Feb if we are lucky this month :)
Will likely test around 12 June <3

Skylark1990 · 19/05/2022 13:54

Hello! Keen to join too, if that's OK? Also on the Hoping for a June BFP thread. We are TTC no.2, have a 20 month old DD already. Am still breastfeeding her but have recently stopped night feeds and it's definitely helping my sleep and energy levels so hoping that helps! Had two early miscarriages - in Jan and April - this year, been TTC since December but with a couple of breaks due to illness/grieving the MCs.

Been quite run down this year so hoping it's just been bad luck with the early losses and that we will conceive again soon, and the bean will continue to grow ❀

I usually temp & do LH tests, the three times I've been pregnant I've also stopped having coffee every day. On CD4 today, still having my morning cup but trryyying to convince myself to go back to tea πŸ˜…

allthingssparkly · 19/05/2022 13:41

@RMS0209 It really has flown by, I was saying that to another lady on a thread too! 😊

I've had abit of EWCM today so I'm defo keen to go again tonight 🀭🀭 if I can persuade my OH..

Thank you, I will do x

MamaSJ15 · 19/05/2022 13:38

Hello 😊 we're currently TTC #2 and on cycle #2 (after a few cycles of trying last year then a break) I'm on CD22 and trying to be as casual as possible this time around, no tracking or apps or early testing. Just the knowledge of whereabouts I am in my cycle and when AF is usually due. So my last cycle was a bit out of whack at 33 days, but it's usually 28.
How's everyone doing today?

BiscuitLover3678 · 19/05/2022 13:34

RMS0209 · 18/05/2022 16:50

Hi! When do you all roughly get a peak? I'm different every month :( x

i think around 13-15 dpo but tbh I’m not sure as have been useless at tracking but trying to be better this month

RMS0209 · 19/05/2022 13:31

Hello!
Do you not think its flew by? I remember us chatting when AF appeared.. now look at us 14 & 15 days later ha ha.

Exciting for you! You've hit good days - so far for me CD11,CD13.. tempted to try tonight but defo going to go with tomorrow if not. Really hope this is our cycle.

I remember I said I was ditching the OPK's this cycle... oopsie heheh haha good luck to you too keep me updated x

allthingssparkly · 19/05/2022 13:29

Hi @RMS0209 😊

Tomorrow is ovulation day for me 😬 going to try and dtd tonight and then on Saturday. After that it'll be the dreaded tww 🀣 so far we've done CD11, 13 & 14 all within my FW so fingers crossed 🀞

I've scrapped doing OPK's and BBT this cycle it's nice to not have the worry about remembering to temp and dip a stick every day πŸ™ˆ so we shall see what happens this cycle!

Good luck to you! X

RMS0209 · 19/05/2022 13:00

allthingssparkly · 19/05/2022 11:11

Hi Ladies!

I'm currently CD15 & in my FW.

TTC baby number 3.

If this is my lucky cycle I'd be due around the 10th February 🀍

Hey! I am CD14 today... in my fertile week too eeeee, premom thinks CD19 for OV but my opks are looking good today so far... 0.64 which is very good for me! How you doing x

allthingssparkly · 19/05/2022 12:43

I would absolutely love a little daughter πŸ₯° however I'd be equally as happy with another son @HR2022 🀍

HR2022 · 19/05/2022 11:52

@allthingssparkly aw how lovely!! Are you secretly hoping for a girl this time round πŸ’•

allthingssparkly · 19/05/2022 11:46

Aw that's amazing, I remember being pregnant with my first and that was 8 years ago now πŸ₯Ί

Yeah baby 3, I have two boys already 😊 x

HR2022 · 19/05/2022 11:40

@allthingssparkly Yes totally agree on the 2nd week going a lot quicker! Next week is going to be loooong!

First time TTC, cycle 2 :) I see yours is baby number 3, how lovely πŸ₯° x
