@HJWT I'm not sure that I've ovulated yet although a bit unclear to me. Positive opk/static smiley two days ago, EWCM for the past few days and no temp rise today so perhaps I'm ovulating today?

I have one of those lovely tmi cm questions. I assumed I ovulated yesterday going by OPK's/EWCM but no temp rise today. When checking cm, it has become less clear, still stretchy but not as much as yesterday, not thin at all- more like big jelly like blobs (I've found two so far in the cm treasure hunt). Also one blob was blood tinged but no spotting as such. Does this still sound like fertile cm? We plan on dtd today regardless but might try to do it sooner rather than later as finish work in the afternoon.

Oh I'm glad I'm not going to be alone then in the 2WW!!! Iv been on contraception for the last 8 years other than when pregnant and the 1 month I wasn't before i got pregnant with DD, I honestly did not realise how much all of those fake hormones effect your body, Iv had no sex drive for all that time and I only now realise that because I actually want to DTD with DH constantly, TMI i know!! But i think this means i should ovulate tomorrow like the app says 😂??

Hangingtrousers · 01/01/2019 13:22

Happy new year ladies.

Ovulated yesterday according to my app.. Dtd Sunday night and Saturday morning. Hopefully get a chance this evening too. Then on to two week.
Really hope we see more bfps over the next few weeks. Smile

thosethreewords · 01/01/2019 13:33

@Hangingtrousers sounds good!! 🙃
@HJWT I can't believe how much better I feel off contraception too. My libido was waaaay down and I assumed it was just being in a ten year relationship, and we still had sex 3-4 times a week but I was never excited before necessarily. As soon as the coil came out, TMI, sex feels So. Much. Better.

I'm obviously pleased! But also gutted. I've had operations and tests and medication for years for what I assumed was endometriosis due to painful sex and left abdominal pain when I was going to the toilet, and it disappeared as soon as my coil was removed.

HJWT · 01/01/2019 13:41

@thosethreewords its so true isn't it with the implant i never got excited to DTD i was fine once it was happening but never actually 'wanted' to do it😂 poor DH.

That is so bad iv never heard anything good about the coil so i refused to have it when my doctor tried to persuade me! xx

Chanel05 · 01/01/2019 13:46

@thosethreewords oh yes our charts are very similar! Here’s hoping that it’s nothing detrimental!

LaBelleSausage · 01/01/2019 13:47

Hi all. Checking in as DH and I agreed on Boxing Day that we’d try for #2.
I’m on CD16 today and we’ve DTD every other day for the last week so maybe I’m in for some luck this month.
Pretty sure I felt ovulation pain two days ago but not using strips or temping.
I’m planning to POAS on 15th Jan if AF hasn’t caught up with me by then.
Will be nice to have a few other people waiting with me!

Hangingtrousers · 01/01/2019 13:53

@labellesausage I'm cd15 so will be waiting together 👌

LaBelleSausage · 01/01/2019 13:57

@Hangingtrousers excellent! We can hopefully stop each other going too crazy.
I’ve just been through my bathroom cupboard to check for tests from when I was trying for DS and I have a first response that expired in September and a clear blue that expires in Feb.
I’ve got such an urge to use the FR now even though it’s out of date and I’m not even close to when AF is due Blush

Hangingtrousers · 01/01/2019 14:00

Glad you have some!
We started trying last month. I burned through 3 tests and my period came right on time.
This month I'm going to try and wait till period due. Have one test left from last month.

LaBelleSausage · 01/01/2019 14:04

DH thinks I should bin them on the grounds that I won’t actually trust the results from expired/nearly expired ones anyway, but that’s far too sensible Grin

thosethreewords · 01/01/2019 14:24

@HJWT well I loved my coil for all the other reasons - never had to think about it. I'm rubbish with taking medication daily and can't take the combined pill because of a history of high blood pressure on it. Didn't get on with the implant (lots of irregular bleeding). Not sure what I would go back to now!
@Chanel05 yes well we are in the same boat either way 😊
@LaBelleSausage hello and welcome! That sounds like a promising start. FX for your BFP this month x

LaBelleSausage · 01/01/2019 14:27

Thanks @thosethreewords
I’ll keep mine crossed for you too, and everyone else on the thread x

stormtrooperjulian · 01/01/2019 14:30

@HJWT are you using opks or just tracking with the app? I just got a +ve opk so looks like I should be ovulating tomorrow

@LaBelleSausage last time I used an expired test (before I was ttc so not testing regularly) I didn’t even get a control line come up

LaBelleSausage · 01/01/2019 14:36

Thanks stormtrooperjulian that’s useful to know. I feel like I The CB that expires in Feb should be ok, but maybe I should bin the FR. I won’t trust anything it tells me anyway.

We’ll probably be in the 2ww together as well if you’re supposed to ovulate any day now. According to ovia I’m ovulating today but I’m not sure how reliable that is.

thosethreewords · 01/01/2019 14:47

Just been on Facebook after a Christmas without going on... 2 new year announcements of babies! Really hope I'm next 😊 although not sure I will post on FB about it, because I don't often post much of anything really!

HJWT · 01/01/2019 16:37

@stormtrooperjulian im doing both but not postive OPK for me yet Confused so i guess the App is wrong up to now xx

Fortheloveofscience · 01/01/2019 16:43

Happy New Year everyone!

HJWT, thosethreewords totally agree re the sex drive thing it’s really quite scary. I’d had implants in for 5 years and since getting it out in May I’ve been unrecognizable in that respect. Never going back to it again, 100% certain.

Chanel05 · 01/01/2019 17:59

Definitely feel like I’m out. No cm today and a wet sort of feeling (tmi). Thinking af is imminent...

WatchingTheWheels85 · 01/01/2019 18:36

Makes me glad that one I'm not on facebook and two I have no friends Grin. I do have a gym buddy and just my luck she will announce she is pregnant without even trying. I'm out did an early test for the first time in my life and as predicted it was bfn. Just want my fucker af here now so I can crack on.

HJWT · 01/01/2019 18:38

Well I know I wont be ovulating tomorrow 😩 god how did i get pregnant the first time? I only used an app and went of that, worked full time doing shifts and didn't even live with DH at the time as work was to far away... must of been a miracle 🙄

Jan Bus - new year, BFPs please
Frillyfarmer · 01/01/2019 20:00

6DPO. Feeling sick as a dog today, very thirsty and tired. I’m obsessing already, AF due on the 9th and I’m going to use all my willpower not to test until then!

Hangingtrousers · 01/01/2019 21:28

Ok.. I'm getting obsessed now.. downloaded 3 apps to compare dates. 😂 Dd2 was conceived after DTD once. Help me stay sane.

@Hjwt ....feel the same! Think it's going to be harder work this time.

WatchingTheWheels85 · 01/01/2019 21:36

Which apps are you all using? I've just got ovia

Hangingtrousers · 01/01/2019 21:47

'my tracker' which I've used a while and is really straight forward.
Clue.. which I just downloaded but shows it in a more pretty way.
Ovia I have but it's to busy and confusing.
