Jan Bus - new year, BFPs please

[TtcIAm]

Af due tomorrow light spotting today so it will arrive early morning 😢 onto cycle 12 for me, so here's my stats.

Af brought on my provera cycle 10 after 142 days

Ttc number 2
recently diagnosed with PcOS
🤞 for actual clear ovulation this month

af due 4th January going by old cycles.

I bought the clear blue ones and pre seed. If it hasn't happened by february I'm buying the fertility monitor or the ava bracelet. Also looking at acupuncture in January. I'm so inpatient I just want this now.

CD4, I reckon ovulation day is around Xmas but will get some OPK for this month.

Can I join please 😀

TTC #1
CD #12
Just turned 35 DP 33

So I have wanted a child for a few years but we weren't in a position to do it, but now have our own home, better places in our jobs and I feel completely ready.
We decided to start trying this month as DP ( I've been learning the abbreviations haha) would like a September baby like himself hehe

Anyways, Mirena was removed in October, Pregnacare been taken since November (suggested taking 1 month before trying by dr) and Clear Blue Digital has given me a flashing smile for the last 3 days 👍

As much as I would love to get pregnant first time, I am aware that it may not happen.
I am going to stay positive about this.

So I have the Ovia app and now Flo app and will try and do a test NYE, and if it's a BFP, that's will be a great start to the NY for us.

I wish everyone well who is trying 😊

@Msluce hello and welcome to the jan club! I've done my first OPK today and it's made me consider getting the CB ones if I have no luck this cycle because I feel like I need an easy smile or no smile - these ones are a bit subjective! (Tbf I'm CD6 today but last cycle was short so FF predicts fertile window from tomorrow whereas my Fitbit app says next week!)

Pls can someone help a newbie OPK taker... this is negative looking at the description but still has a line... does that mean it will get darker (hopefully!) and become positive?

Welcome @Msluce! It seems your one day ahead of me, Im CD11, Im also considering testing NYE just because it’ll be such a lovely start to the year!

@thosethreewords I also did an OPK today and it very much looked the same as yours, I’ve put it down as a negative, I believe the line has to be equal or darker?

@thosethreewords just realised you asked if it will get darker, Im a newbie to the OPK too so I’m not sure on that one! I just assumed it’ll be an instant thing!

@thosethreewords you always have an amount of LH in your system, so depending on which OPK you are using, I would say that line isn’t a positive and you need to keep testing?

@thosethreewords that is negative, I'd take them everyday and keep them to see if it's getting darker x

Ttc #1 after mc, first month back ttc. Trying to get back into the swing of things. Just finished fertile week, dtd 4 times during fertile week. Not sure whether that's enough or not. How many times do you aim for/ consider a good month?

Just looked back at my glow app and although we tried to ttc for 7 months before conceiving last time we only managed to dtd 4 or more times in the fertile week 4 of those months (One of us seemed to be ill or out of the country at exactly the wrong times 🙈)

I'm aiming for every day from cd5 then twice a day from a flashy smile on the cb opk until 2 days after my peak.

 twice a day during the fertile week? Fair play to you. Not sure I've got the energy for that atm 😂

This is only cycle 2, come back to me on this question at Easter doubt very much I will be feeling so enthusiastic!

Thanks everyone - I'll keep going with the OPK and see when they become positive 👌

We usually BD every day anyway and sometimes twice a day (not that often, usually weekends) so probably stick to that I think?

TTC #1
MMC October '18
Cycle 2 since then, currently CD17

We conceived in cycle 2 of trying last time. Just taking things slowly and trusting our bodies. I have been using Flo and also OPKs since CD12 line was slightly darker today. Ovulation expected CD19-21 so I'm in my fertile week now. Going to try and hold off testing until the New Year if at all possible!
Sending baby dust to all

@WatchingTheWheels85 @thosethreewords we need to up our game  haha

Hello!

Can I join please?

The AF I've been waiting for has arrived, so once it goes I'll be TTC#2 cycle 1.

Hoping for a lovely start to 2019, although like others we are staying with the in-laws. They gave the noisest beds ever!!

*have

@Hunkyd0ry you will have to get inventive and not use the bed 😂
@Dimblebimble I don't think I can go anymore!! Quickie before work? My DH would love that!

@thosethreewords that's what my husband said! He said PIL could babysit and we could take the car.....

@Hunkyd0ry I see his logic. "Oh we've run out of sprouts... me and Hunkyd0ry will go to Tesco, don't worry?" If it was my DH, he would do a really obvious wink too, so it would be totally obvious 🤦🏼‍♀️

@thosethreewords I mean me and dh do haha, think we need to aim for at least every day during fertile week. I think I read something about it reducing sperm quality if you dtd everyday but I think that's only if there's poor quality sperm in the first place

Wow @WatchingTheWheels85 that's amazing. Twice a day. We managed to DTD every other day and I was impressed by that. You've put me to shame!! Best of luck to you!

We also only DTD every other day! Better sperm quality apparently ! My implant is out !!! So now waiting for AF it feels SOOOO weird knowing I can get pregnant and now I'm like screaming in my head 24/7 Haha!!
