My stats -

Not a hint of a bfp in that time

My youngest has just turned 13 next is 14 and one 19. I was 25 when my last was born.

Life twist and turns and I'm really hoping this might be our month.

Using clue app and taking vitamins. Next step is opiks but other half was getting very stressed and wanted to take a more relaxed approach. I've now relaxed and He's getting anxious.

Pinklily1 · 06/04/2018 22:08

OH has gone to bed. Bed for f**s sake Angry To be fair, he has no idea I’ve taken an OPK as that would stress him out. Still, I expect him to know telepathically that we need to be DTD tonight Grin And he is oblivious, and asleep. And I am irritated and very much awake.

mayago · 06/04/2018 22:21

Pink maybe you'll both be awake at some point during the night? Or can you make it work in the morning?

I cannot count. I've tested and stressed way too early! I think Ovia has changed my calendar around. Testing day is now coming up as Saturday, and I'm 9 or 10dpo today. I've wasted a FRER, FFS. And the price has gone up on Amazon Angry

newmama2018 · 06/04/2018 22:22

@Pinklily1 wake him up. Wake him up naked! These things have to go ahead!

newmama2018 · 06/04/2018 22:23

@mayago ovia has put me as 10 for my fertile window 𝐒𝐜o𝐫𝐞 and I'm only cd10! I'm not sure what it thinks is going on!

newmama2018 · 06/04/2018 22:46

Just found this still stuck on my back! It's one of the monitor thingys from having surgery on Wednesday! How have I not noticed and how has no one else noticed? I've had two showers, walked round in my underwear and had sex since 😆

Omg this made me laugh newmama2018

Pinklily1 · 07/04/2018 08:49

How did your OH not notice new?! Smile

No DTD for us. I had grand plans for this morning and then we were woken by our DD. Hopefully it will still be ok to DTD tonight.

How is everyone this morning?

newmama2018 · 07/04/2018 09:07

@Pinklily1 @TwittleBee I don't know how no one has noticed! First off though surely the hospital should count them on and off 😆. But there's been loads of people who have seen me and no one has said anything. The paranoid part of me thinks it was a test and they all thought it was funny.

How is everyone this morning? Anyone testing? Xx

sodababy2 · 07/04/2018 12:37

Oh bless you @newmama2018!

Is it @mayago testing first?

I'm 7dpo today. No symptoms of any kind. Pretty sure I'm not pregnant this month. Again. Had acupuncture yesterday and with my CP she knew I was pregnant at that stage and the needles really bloody hurt! But yesterday it all felt normal so I'm taking that as a bad sign.

Not planning on testing at all this cycle - unless AF is late of course. So sick of seeing bfn.

mayago · 07/04/2018 14:17

newmama that’s strange no one noticed! I’ve had similar left on before, but always on my front so I knew where they were.

I am testing tomorrow. I think I’d be surprised if it came back positive! Fingers crossed.

Pinklily1 · 07/04/2018 14:59

fingers crossed may for tomorrow. Did you suspect with DC or have any symptoms in the run up to testing?

Fingers crossed AF doesn’t show soda. Good idea to not test and just see what happens.

Also, thanks to those who recommended Fertility Friend. I’ve downloaded it and think it’s more accurate than Ovia.

YassQueen · 07/04/2018 15:41

I am 5ish dpo I think? Losing track of the days. Tummy pain today, I'm hoping it could be implantation but more likely to be all the easter chocolate Grin

TwittleBee · 07/04/2018 17:44

sodababy2 oh I really hope you get a nice surprise. FX!

mayago eeek hope you get a bfp!!!!

YassQueen implantation hopefully! Is possible to implant at 5dpo isn't it?

Would love it if this was all our last bus! FX

mayago · 07/04/2018 19:49

I expected a negative when I tested with DD Pink so let’s hope it’s the same this time. A lot more ‘symptoms’ this month but I’m sure they’ll all be psychosomatic. I’ll be 11-ish DPO tomorrow so I guess that’ll be it. Not sure why Ovia is recommending to test then? Last time I tested early as OH was working away, which just added to the surprise

Tummy pains over the past week here too Yass. Probably down to chocolate - I abstained for all of March!

Might give fertility friend a bash if I’m still trying next month. I used Pink Pad last time, which is always off on dates. I don’t think I really understand Ovia, and the links with Clear Blue are just annoying

It would be amazing if this were the last bus Twittle!!

Peanut1980 · 07/04/2018 23:08

Good luck @mayago 🤞

UnicornPrincess · 07/04/2018 23:38

Joining on this one!

Age: 22
TTC DC no 1.
AF due 25th April

Fertile window just started so fingers crossed!

Peanut1980 · 08/04/2018 07:00

Welcome and good luck @unicornprincess x

Peanut1980 · 08/04/2018 07:28

So I purchased a Clearblue Fertility monitor which I’m using for the first time this cycle 🤞 I also have a scan on Wednesday to check for any polyps or fibroids. Husband is booked in to get his sperm analysis at the end of the month so I feel like we might be making a little progress this month x

Beckyboo123 · 08/04/2018 07:42

Hi ladies can I join in.

Age-35
TTC-#2
DC1-35 months
Cycle-officially 1 but been unofficially trying for about 6 months
AF due-21st April

We were so very lucky with dc1 we weren’t really trying an didn’t have sex all that often. It really amazes me now that we are trying to get pregnant just how hard it is to do. DH didn’t want to us to HAVE to have sex at certain times an wanted it to just happen naturally like our first time 😂 I had to explain to him that it doesn’t normally happen like that an unfortunately it does take a bit of planning and tracking, so now we are doing it properly an at the right times. Fingers crossed ladies an we will all get our BFP asap xx

mayago · 08/04/2018 07:52

BFN this morning, and wallowing in misery while trying to parent. It’s harder this time around!

CatRen27 · 08/04/2018 08:41

Ohhh crap mayago im really sorry. Still a few more days before af is due though right? Sorry you're down about it, and hope you have some left over Easter eggs to cheer you up xx

CatRen27 · 08/04/2018 08:43

Peanut1980 · 08/04/2018 09:10

Sorry to hear that @mayago but don’t give up hope just yet. I never get a positive test until the day/day after my AF is due. Fingers crossed you’re still in with a chance x

Welcome @beckyboo123 and good luck x

Peanut1980 · 08/04/2018 09:12

Good luck @catren27. 2 week wait is sooooooooooooooo long ⏰⏰⏰⏰
