Thread 2. #Ttc1. We weren't supposed to start yet, but the starting pistol (penis) has gone off. Join our journey as we navigate the ovia boat, pissy sticks and symptoms spotting

[StarkyTheDirewolf]

We weren't supposed to start till January! But we did!
Join us as we ttc #1 after pill/contraception etc.

We've got a boat, it makes frequent stops for wine, pissy sticks, wool, slings, cake and all manner of shit we don't need yet but we buy anyway!

Ah, not opk... That's ovulation right?

I meat pregnancy tests. I'm gonna poas every month. I know that I'm gonna by to "need" to.

You can get the pregnancy ones on Amazon too, similar price

have bought so many that I will in no way feel bad about testing from 8dpo because I'm insane and obsessive

china you will soon be obsessing too I was very not bothered, and not properly tracking and very lessaiz faire about the whole thing....until I was late. And i had one test. And we werent ttc properly...Now, I've got mydays app, ovia, I'm getting Dh to take me to wilkos tomorrow and shall be stocking up on over tests and prego tests. the fever will hit you. manic laugh

Ovulation not over tests!

Stark's right. It's like an infectious disease

I specifically said to Dh tonight "let's watch something light, cheerful, possibly festive." What have we watched...bloody literally zombie apocalypse shit with some heads blown off thrown in! I give up! Tomorrow I'm taking control and we're watching fucking Mulan!

Stark has it got bad enough for Disney porn?! please forgive the bad joke, I'm very tired

Speaking of Mulan, I watched the live action Chinese version on Netflix the other day... Very good but lots of blood and the ending made me cry, probably not what you're looking for lol

Did another opk this morning. Makes yesterday's suspected positive look rather pathetic that test line is way darker IRL!

Dtd yesterday so all I have to do now is wait. Eek, it's a lot more exciting when you know as certainly as possible that you dtd at exactly the right time

Morning ladies.

What are we saying about exercise, specifically sit ups etc during tww - should be ok right?

X

Yup, the guidance just says don't exercise to exhaustion and keep yourself cool

I thought exactly the same thing Runner. I was very impressed by your multi tasking China! Clearly we all have sexon the brain!

Speaking of which, how are you all keeping things lively shall we say without seeming too regimented? We are aiming to DTD every other day but I don't want it to turn into something we have to tick off the calendar, or that Monday's, Wednesday's and Friday's are sex time!

Morning all.

Had to do another test again this morning , when will this thought of not being pregnant bugger off? Also made it to the gym woohoo. I need to look up what exercises I'm not supposed to do. Currently watching an episode of OBEM too.

Try eBay for preggo tests China. I got 50 for £3.59 ..... Yesterday **

wow Runner there's no arguing with that OPK is there??!!

You'll get there Bunch most of the guides say it's very common not to believe you're pregnant until you start to show.

Pink we haven't got a regime in place. I try to jump OH EOD when I'm fertile but I haven't told him that and I try to make it as natural as possible by flirting during the day etc.
I just think it's important to to have fun, avoid pressuring him and err, don't always have sex for baby making if their are other things they like to do

Oh and Bunch I'm very proud of that opk... Just hoping that when I poas in 12 days the test is as clearly positive!!

That's a very good point Runner. I found trying it on when not fertile and erm making him happy during AF helped him not feel like a sperm donor. Mind you we struggled to have much sex anyway, his job has him a bit stressed and therefore low libido level. I've just realised this morning I won't have AF for another year!! Amazing!

F&TX for you here Runner!!

Thanks Bunch

Btw achey boobs are back. I've discovered they are a common side effect of ovulation which is good as the matched up with when I think I ovulated last month too.

I'm hoping that means that if they hang around like they did last month it means I have a shiny fertilised egg. They only faded last month when my chemical pregnancy lines faded.

Good morning everyone.

I am frantically trying to catch up on the thread so bear with me ladies.

Well I feel much better, my chest infection is clearing and I dont feel like I am coughing my guts up wohoo. AF arrived in the middle of it all and it is particularly heavy but I am trying my best to keep positive as the past two weeks has been rough.

Me and OH managed to pick up our new cars at the weekend, it seems we both now own more family friendly vehicles.

Well I just checked and my next test date will be NYE wouldnt that be a nice present.

Have a good day everyone.

Arrrrggg!!

Opk ultra positive today! Test line darker than control and came up in under a minute. Am I going to have to DTD again tonight or will yesterday mornings swimmers be ok?? I don't think I could coax him into it tonight.

You should be fine from yesterday Shelb. It's not good for the winners to dtd every day. Tomorrow would be a good "just in case" too. The test doesn't mean you're ovulating right now but more like you're about to in the next few days so yesterday and tomorrow will be good. Eek it's all so exciting with finally some good results from OPK's!!

Thanks bunch. I know, I couldn't believe it when I saw it! Yeah I'll aim for tomorrow. I'm cocked out honestly.

Eee, Shelb we're ovulating at the same time.

I have the same problem with OH I had to coax him last night so I think tonight will be off the menu. Will try to attack him tomorrow

Hahah cocked out

Runner I know!

Have you done an opk today out of interest?
