Anyone else CD1?

Sounds like you've got a really good chance this month @Bb542 ! When will you test?

I don't get a lot of CM but I can tell that it's starting to get a bit closer to what it should look like around ovulation. Let's see!

Hi @imy 🥰 glad you're doing well. Hopefully you get that peak soon 🤞🏼do you have any of the ovulation symptoms?

I peaked on Wednesday so I'm 2dpo today. Glad I was using OPKs as I peaked sooner than I thought. We DTD 3 times between Sunday and Wednesday so I hope it was enough 😬 would've liked to Thursday too but wasn't possible as my OH wasn't home.

How's everyone else?

How's everyone getting on? CD15 for me. I am still waiting for my peak although I can tell that my body is gradually heading towards ovulation. I'm in no rush really but I guess I worry that if it takes us a few cycles I don't want to ovulate too late because it will just add time on! But I'm sure it's just my body adapting since this is only the second cycle off the pill.

I used to be clockwork and standard 28 days too @Bb542, it's so frustrating, isn't it? I'm so sorry for your loss.

I've really struggled with the aftermath because it's taking so long to get my body back, it feels like it's out of control. I was desperate to be trying again by now, but I recon the hormones still have a lot of settling to do. Still, I'm here for the ride this month, whatever happens. Hoping for the best but preparing for the worst and another 18 day cycle.

Bless you, good luck for tonight!! It is a LOT isn't it when you're trying 😂

@Bb542 I most likely ovulated today and we dtd yesterday, 3 and 5 days ago. I hope my partner will have the stamina to go again today and tomorrow as we're trying the SMEP method (although it's a lot! 😅). It's tough as our DD's sleep has been horrible this week, it's like she knows what we're trying to do and makes sure it doesn't happen 😂😂
Good luck to you!!

I'm CD13 now, my OPKs have started to rise so I reckon I'll peak tomorrow or Friday 🤞🏼 we DTD on Sunday, Tuesday and hopefully tonight. Probably won't get to tomorrow though 😬

Good luck this cycle everyone 🥰🤞🏼

@KittyFantastica hello! I'm so sorry it took you so long to get back to a bit of normality with your cycles. I had a miscarriage in Feb and my cycles have been strange too. I now ovulate much earlier than I used to and they go from a 33 day cycle to 26 day last month? I used to be every 28 days exactly. Hopefully they will regulate for us soon 🤞🏼

Did you get to DTD much? Fingers crossed for you. It'll be nice to be in Greece as a distraction for the TWW 😂

I'd say it was just from DTD. Maybe a bit of irritation? Are you getting normally numbers on your OPK?

Hello, may I join?

I had a chemical in January and a MMC in March. It took 7.5 weeks to test negative and get AF to return. I was excited to be returning to my 'normal' only for that cycle to last 18 days :(. My luteal phase was only 3/4 days. No idea what this cycle will be like, but I'm currently CD8 and still spotting a bit with mild crampy sensations.

Weirdest cycle I've ever had by far. Hoping this cycle will be better. My husband is away over the weekend, so hoping my body will hold off until CD15/16.

I think I will ovulate this weekend too! Weird about the spotting, I guess it must be something to do with the sex? It's so hard when you're TTC and so aware of everything! Sorry your baby isn't sleeping. It's so so tough when they don't sleep. We ended up getting a sleep consultant because we were struggling to cope with my daughter's wakes.

So exciting @MisssMarion !! Keeping everything crossed. Will be a lovely place to find out you're pregnant and even if it isn't the new you want, hopefully a good distraction. I am CD12 and haven't had my peak yet. Honestly I'd rather it come a bit later because of things we've got planned. I'm also going away next week until the 13th so will be nice to have some distraction for my TWW!!

CD13 today and had my peak yesterday. I'll probably be testing around 10 June when I'll be on holiday in Greece... I'm going to be a nervous wreck 😰

And how are you?

I've just finished my period so wondering when to start using OPKs! As it's my first cycle trying I'm really excited at the moment and keen to get going. I did think I'd start testing with OPKs CD7.

Can I join too? I'm CD 3 today, trying for baby #2 (DD is 2.5 yo) after a MMC and surgical management in March.

First TTC was super easy, got pregnant on the first cycle and had a straightforward pregnancy and delivery. I went into TTC #2 quite naïve expecting something similar... I got pregnant on the 2nd cycle (not too bad at 38) but then had a MMC so back to square one and 4 months lost 😢 This new cycle is the second since the MMC and I'm a nervous wreck... I could use the company/support!

@Bb542 yes I am personally a big fan of OPKs. I got pregnant the first cycle trying with my first (I am now TTC my second) and I wouldn’t have been able to pinpoint ovulation without them. I’ll probably start testing around cycle day 7 once a day and then do twice a day when the line starts to get darker. How about you?

Thanks @imy ❤️ you too! Will you use OPKs?

Welcome @Bb542 , I'm so sorry to hear about your miscarriage. I've got everything crossed for you for this cycle!

Can I join? I'm CD3. AF arrived on Friday. We're trying for baby #1. We've been trying since December and had a miscarriage in February. Really hoping this new cycle brings us all some luck 🤞🏼❤️

Well done on finding your peak @LateNightTalk ! That’s half the battle haha. When trying for my first I used LH strips and then had a lot of sex as they were getting darker and a couple of days after too. It was a heat wave at the time and so it wasn’t the most enjoyable sex haha but you’ve got to do it! I plan to do the same this time so fingers crossed.
