TTC FIRST BABY - New cycle, let's go girls !

Yeah it's mad how you can be negative in the morning and then just peak randomly through the day! I've never had a peak with FMU only in the afternoon or evening.
We DTD everyday from Saturday to Wednesday- has my peak Tuesday but who knows? I had a bit of CM on the Wednesday then Thursday did another OPK test and was negative so hoping I ovulated on the Wednesday!
Just feel in limbo again with the TWW!! Xx

Morning lovely!! Happy Friday!!! How are you doing? What cycle day are you? Isn't it so frustrating waiting for that rise!!! Those strips I was using gave a different result from the clear blue one! Got my peak a day before on the CB compared to the poundland strips so who knows this month! I'm so tired 😂😂😂😂😂

HAHAHA!! Oh my gosh, IMAGINE 😂😂😂 that would be hilarious. Comes out on a bottomless brunch.. I’d be like NO WAY?! 😂🤣

@Lila34830 defo think that will be enough DTD, you can do everyday if it makes you feel better but as long as you’ve covered some days in the build up your in with a chance regardless!!

CM is such a one, I notice I have loads more if I drink loads of water so I make sure I make an extra effort to be super hydrated that week!

also, I was literally on here the other day asking when we should DTD so don’t worry about that 🤣🤣

I actually find it hilarious how open we all are, because I can tell you now there is no one else I am messaging telling them when me and my OH are DTD 🤣🤣🤣 but on here I have no shame!

@Toppstileslover when I got a UTI 1st month TTC I had SO MUCH CM after in my TWW (literally thought I was pregnant cause there was so much), but I think it was all the water I was drinking to try flush the horrendous thing out! Could it be the same for you?

Oh girls it’s a rollercoaster isn’t it! 🩷

Poor @Fashionlover123 I really feel for you! I think if I was about 5 days late then I was like you, I was also having very unusual cramps (never have cramps). Completely convinced something happened but I don’t want to start testing in the TWW otherwise I’ll literally send myself delulu.

@littlebluu I’m so the same with my husband 😂 I do really love him but omg I’m already dreading limbering up on a Tuesday night after my board meeting all day next week 😂😂😂 it’s just not shrieking sex goddess

what is this about CM?! Not last month but the month before (we were actually on holiday, I didn’t track ovulation but ended up getting a uti then ended up going on xxxxl strong American antibiotics 😂 omg) anyway I had insanely sticky CM! I’d never noticed it before. Is that ovulation?! assuming so - more art than biology over here

sending love and fairy dust ✨✨ I hope this is everyone’s month xx

I’ve done quite a few tests today, feel like I’m driving myself insane. Just gunna do one a day until AF now x

I've definitely noticed CM being there before all this ttc stuff, I just never really knew why it was happening and just put it down to hormones etc, but now when I'm waiting for it to happen it's stopped coming 😅😅

And dw @Lila34830 I've been on here with the most random TMI questions too 😆 but as ive learned it's a totally safe space 😁 I also have my concerns about my body not keeping everything contained so I know exactly how you feel 🤯

Have you ever had any CM or just noticed this last month you had less?
I’ve read grapefruit juice is suppose to increase it not sure if that’s a wives tale though x

@Fashionlover123 So sorry to hear that!🤗 Still fingers crossed for you 🤞🤞

@Frenchtoastie I was the exact same last month (first cycle ttc), every little twinge I was convinced was symptoms 😅

I'm now starting to worry as I really don't develop any CM, which I'm now learning is super important to conceive. I thought it was just my age and I was drying up 🥲 but now I'm worried it's an actual fertility issue. So many things to consider, my heeds burst 😆

I am feeling cramping really low down, i feel like I am going to drive myself mad this month with probably just normal life symptoms :( anyone else the same? X

Well fingers still crossed for you!!
have you tried feeling your cervix? I’ve been reading about that it should feel higher and softer if you have concieved but tbh I don’t know what mine feels like normally x

I know me either… I’m 11DPO today so Sunday X

Can’t believe that so sorry that was a nasty indent! When are you due? I wonder if the tests might be confused x

@Lila34830 Agreed!! I think it’s a lot of pressure when in your head you feel like you HAVE to and the window is so small, but 8 years into our relationship we are way past sex consecutive days 🤣 so there’s no way it wasn’t gonna feel forced. I think the first month did feel quite fun and exciting but the last two not so much 😂 the reality of AF arriving and it not being as short journey as I’d hoped has contributed to that though! Even though we are still realistically still so early on in the journey😂

@Itstime2023 Looks like you’ve just found your peak so most likely haven’t missed your chances this month! Good luck 🤞

Confused over here too ✋ up down up down. Not sure where I am.
Attempted DTD last night but no success story. Thought we might have been out this month but tested again today and we might have been to soon anyway. So guess we're still in? 🤞
