CD1 entering 3rd month TTC (next fertile window 8th - 17th march)

@Emilyx00 all good thank you! On CD9 today, so the first day of my fertile week according to my Flo app 😬

we have gorgeous weather here too in Devon today! We went to a farm this morning with my toddler which was lovely.

Hope everything is ok with everyone x

Not been sunny here at all today. I'm in ramsgate, Kent. Couldn't bring myself to go in the sea until its much warmer.
Currently redecorating my house from top to bottom, keeping me busy.
Wasn't going to use opk's this month but already know I can't help myself. Partner is away working a fair bit though so hoping it all fits in. Fingers crossed.
Good to see everyone has something to keep them busy.

Morning! I’ve also been enjoying some wine before attempting to cut it out next week - work is stressful so the wine is definitely helping at the moment. I used cheap OPKs last month but I’ve ordered some Clear Blue digital ones this month to see if it is more accurate at catching ovulation.

Morning all! Gorgeous weather up north too but I've woken up with a hideous sore throat, just hoping I'm not coming down with something that's going to affect ttc this month! Saw some friends last night which was nice, if they spotted that I wasn't drinking they were too polite to say anything about it.

Hello!
Hope everyone is good!
Im mid way through my period. Just enjoying having some wine and doing HIIT before I hit the OPKs again 😂

I’m in Suffolk so sea is only 20 mins away.

I’ve also started back running again was trying for another marathon but will just run for health now do not so extreme.

Xx

@Herewegoagain0 i’m in London too! What part are you in? Well done with the gym!!! I signed up yesterday funnily enough.

@Rosyposy26 Aww where abouts are you to be able to go in the sea? Hopefully the bleeding stops soon so you can start TTC again!

im ok ladies, just really hoping AF hurries up so I can try again. xx

@Emilyx00 I,m ok bleeding still but just spotting but did go in the sea just now and that seems to have made period heavier.

starting OPK testing today as per app to see when ovulation is but also trying to stay relaxed. How are you? xx

@Emilyx00 all good here. Went to the gym for the first time in about 9 months yesterday which felt really good so going to try to keep that up! It’s really sunny where we are today (London) so going to try and spend most of the day outdoors. CD5 tomorrow so going to start on the OPKs. Ovulation for me varies between CD11-14 so want to make sure I catch it! X

@UnicornPrincessSarah @ALB1266 @Adamsapple89 @Choc29 @Custardcreammachine @Flowerpot9 @Ginny2018 @Grace185 @Herewegoagain0 @Kitty337 @Rosyposy26 @Shortcake06 @Squirreljr28 @YorkshirePeridot @icallshade @mamataylor How are you all? X

@Custardcreammachine I believe it’s the first day of full flow. For example, if I start on Friday night, I count Saturday as the first day. xx

Weird question, sorry if tmi! do you count CD1 on the first sign of blood or is it when it's heavy enough to use sanpro? For the past few months I have a day of light blood on wiping only really, then it ramps up the next day. Is that day one or would it be the following day? Sorry, I always wonder I'm if out by a day or two because of this!

Hi I'm also on my 3rd month TTC. Im TTC my first and i am 30.

My body has played horrible tricks on me. AF was 7 days late last month took so many tests with BFN and was so gutted when AF finally turned up. I'm doing OPKs and premum app but finding it hard to track after last months extra long cycle.

Hoping March is our month. 🤞xxx

I think I will join in losing a bit of weight and upping the exercise. I'm also a tad overweight and holding it all in my abdomen, a colleague actually asked me on the corridor in front of loads of people if I was pregnant yesterday and it really upset me.

I used to be a keen runner until I had an auto immune reaction about 18 months ago which my knees never recovered from. Need to do more yoga and low impact stuff I think.

@Ginny2018 I really liked Rome when I visited a few years ago, good luck house hunting!

@Adamsapple89 that sounds like an exciting project, how fab to have everything in your salon exactly as you want it. Hope it all goes well!

@Emilyx00 my mums does slimming world and lost a good few stone so deffo I good one to try. Thinking neutrals like beige with black and gold just nice and classic. Yes beauty salon so nails, facials, lashes. I’m a paediatric nurse but left NHS about 2 years ago and have gone into aesthetics for the past 3 years now so fillers Botox etc

@UnicornPrincessSarah aw I have 2 calico girls who are both extremely needy and one big boy who is a rescue. Beauty salon so all the nice girly things

@Ginny2018 That’s amazing. What a talent to be bilingual across so many languages. I wouldn’t have realised English wasn’t your first language through your writing. Have you started looking at houses?

@Adamsapple89 Eek. That sounds like a project, albeit a very exciting one. What colour theme are you going for? Will it be like a beauty salon?

@UnicornPrincessSarah Do you have a gym membership or do you exercise in another way?

@ALB1266 welcome!!❤️ sending you lots of baby dust. Got everything crossed that the medication helps.

I’m the biggest I have ever been and although I’m not overly overweight, I need to lose around 4/5 stone! I think I am going to join slimming world as it’s worked for me before and I really struggle calorie counting xx

I’m going to join too. 2 years into trying to conceive and trying letrozle for the first time this month so hoping that helps.

good luck everyone!

@Ginny2018 how amazing to be buying a house in Rome sounds like so much fun. We have 3 cats so also a fur mum !

So I won’t be actually doing all that much hands on because I’m not a DIY girl but all the planning and design will be me and a friend. We have the upstairs already but are taking over the whole building for one big salon together

@Emilyx00 @Adamsapple89 well long story short: I am Dutch and my boyfriend is Italian, we 'live' in Italy (Rome) but my boyfriend has been working in tourism for a long time so we've been moving around for the last 3 years. This is kind of the last season before we move back to Rome, buy a house and settle down with our family (we have a dog and obvs hope to add someone else soon). I do get to go skiing often but I've not gone out in over a month since starting ttc-journey, i might go tomorrow though! I do speak Italian and basic French but my native language is Dutch. 😀

@Adamsapple89 wow that sounds cool! Are you doing the actual building too?? Is it going to be your salon?

Good idea @Emilyx00 and good luck with your weight loss journey! Have you got any diet you want to follow or just cheaper eating ?

oh wow that sounds amazing and so much minus the few annoying people maybe 😅 @Ginny2018

Im currently turning an estate agents into a salon so any salon inspo is much appreciated
