TTC February 2024 ✨

Still not tested. Fingers crossed for you. I'm 12dpo now.

I ordered some folic acid and just took my first dose- makes it all feel a bit more real that we are actually TTC now!

Hi everyone, CD11 for me today. Still getting flashy smileys on my OPKs but my app says I ovulate tomorrow so we’ll see if it marries up. I work shifts so not sure how that affects ovulation, if at all. It definitely does make DTD on the right days tricky though!

@GoldenArrow how's today been lovely?

@RW269 same here - im already exhausted 😂 two weeks to go 😂

I also OPK-ed for the first time this morning. I think this is going to be a one month thing... I'm not going to be able to reliably do it at any other time of day than first thing. I was up with DD last night and definitely had a sleepy wee at some point, so i dont know how reliable the results are going to be tbh...! Surely if we're regularly DTD it'll have the same result... if we're going to get pregnant i cant see how POAS is going to help the sexathon approach unless it turns out that I ovulate wildly late (i surely cant ovulate early or my LP would be MASSIVE) 🤔 Xx

I've been out of breath too. I don't know though My pms is so similar to early pregnancy symptoms. I woke up sick this morning but that isn't even an indicator for me....as I kinda get queasy with PMS. it's not unusual for my pms to arrive two weeks before my period either....I'm on cd 17. Period arrives 02/06

Morning everyone 👋🏼

I’m on CD9 and starting to track ovulation which I never did before, mainly just to see how accurate my app predictions are. Flo has estimated ovulation on Saturday and Premom has said next Monday, so we’ll see who’s closest 😊

🤞🏼 February is a good month for us on here

Joining from the January group.

Jumping over from the January thread.

Now on CD2 after a 5 day late, COVID delayed? cycle. Could also have been odd having taken Pregnacare too :s

Hoping February is our month 🤞

Back to CD1 for me, AF came super super early (CD22!!!). So strange - have noticed my cycles are getting shorter since I've been taking prenatals!

@RW269 if this doesnt do it im officially stumped 😂 that co Q10 might be worth it just for the extra energy 😂

@Mrshaitchxo ive just started on a strong vitamin supplement (proceive) and im sure i have EWCM and that would be very early for me, im only CD 6... i have read they can pull ovulation forward but sorry ive not seen anything about shortening LP. Join me and @RW269 on our sexathons to cover all bases 😂

And yep. Ive sunk a small fortune into this between the supplements, ever increasingly clean diet for me and DH, lube, tests and now ovulation sticks... whoops! X

Thanks @ButterflySkies yeah tomorrow is a pyjama day, won't be over the door thankfully.x

Yhabk you. My bra feels very tight and uncomfortable. I. Gonna have a nice bath and Hooe AF doesn't surprise me in the morn. X

@Racket81 Sounds tentatively positive - keeping everything crossed for you!

11dpo today sore nipples heavy boobs and feeling breathless today which is weird. Could still be oms symptoms though. Not tested gonna wait another 3 days see if AF turns up. I hope it doesn't we really want this after a miscarraige in July and I'm 42.

@Mrshaitchxo I’m currently in the obsessively analysing TWW period, so know exactly what you mean!

Had taken a few months off after a loss at 11 weeks in August, and as much as I desperately want this to be our month, I kind of miss the relative carefree-ness of the last couple of months.

Hi everyone,
I'm 38 (39 in April)
Starting again as had a missed miscarriage last week.
Feeling so desperate to conceive again ASAP! This will be #2.
It took quite a while to conceive the recent pregnancy so really hoping it doesn't take as long (or happens at all 😬).
Good luck everyone!!
🌈

@RW269 i’m the same! I don’t find that I’m too obsessive with the timings before ovulation but the obsessive analysing of everything during the TWW is my downfall. Constantly on every forum looking for glimmers of hope, trying not to POAS every day 😅

@Fingerscrossed88 im currently CD 5! So not too far behind you. Also feeling impatient😂

I’m unsure what my cycle length will be this month as taking my conception vitamins seems to have messed with my cycle?! Has anyone else experienced this? I would always be regular 28/29 days but I started my vitamins and started seeing shorter, 26 day cycles, with only a 11 day luteal phase. Stopped taking them and my last cycle was 35 days & 14 day LP. So confusing!

also, is anybody else sick of spending money on OPKs, lubes and pregnancy tests? I’m skint ha!! Kind of annoys me that some people can use an app to predict their ovulation and get pregnant instantly😅

What CD is everyone on? I'm CD 11 with 33 legth cycles... just getting impatient 😁

@GoldenArrow sounds horrific love - glad you're in bed. Stay cosy tomorrow if you can? Hope it passes soon 🤞🏽

@RW269 yes 😂 im going for every other day from today for the next three weeks and daily if/when get a peak ovulation test... so chilled about this month 😂 x

Thanks @ButterflySkies 🩷 xxx

This AF is like no other. I have endo and I think it being late has made things worse. Vomited 8 times, had really bad diarrhea, excruciating pain to the point I actually considered calling someone. Thankfully it seems the worst of it has passed and I'm tucked up in bed now after a long sleep.

Hope you ladies are all doing OK 🩷 here's to Feb being our month!

@GoldenArrow here you go, im sorry you're coming across to here but lovely to have you 🩷🩷🩷
