@HJWT I'm also planning to DTD every other day... are you telling me you did this And might not be preggos??? Ahhh man... thought that would work...? No...?

HJWT · 18/12/2018 19:22

@Farhana170 you mean DTD every other day? That was with my first! Lol this will be my second, we got pregnant first cycle with DD

Frillyfarmer · 18/12/2018 22:28

I read whilst TTC #1 that having sex too often decreases the quality of the sperm so I was going to us OPK and have sex every other day and then on ovulation day if I can manage to chart it this month 🙃

tinatsarina · 18/12/2018 22:33

Can I hop on? CD 14 with ttc#2 af due 1st Jan we have DTD the past four days including early this morning as tracker says I'm ovulating today.

Has anyone tried cervix checking? I read about about it but it's mixed on whether it tells you anything about your cycle.

thosethreewords · 18/12/2018 23:01

@tinatsarina I've started checking my cervix, just for interest really because I think BBT, discharge and OPK are going to be better indicators as they are more objective.
Having felt the last few days, I've definitely noticed a difference coming into my (estimated) FW from just after AF.

HJWT · 19/12/2018 07:28

Iv started tracking with OPK after having my implant removed last night... don't want to get pregnant before I have a period so hoping this works Grin

Sleepyhead11 · 19/12/2018 11:32

Hello, please can I join? I have anti-ro and anti-la antibodies so it might be more complex/take longer, but it would be good to be part of a community going through the same thing, and I know that even without antibodies it can be really hit and miss. Just had the coil out at AF arrived yesterday.

Would love to get pregnant in first 6 months of 2019 but totally aware that it could take longer.

Farhana170 · 19/12/2018 12:55

@HJWT hey yes every other day is what I'm going for. Hope the #2 works just as well for you!

@thosethreewords I'm also doing opk, bbt and discharge. How's that going for you? I'm slowly getting the hang of it

Farhana170 · 19/12/2018 12:56

TTC #2 not the #2 silly autocorrect!

thosethreewords · 19/12/2018 13:32

It's actually going quite well! I like the fact I've got an idea of where I am in my cycle - before I didn't really know unless I was on my period. I dont even know if I get symptoms premenstrual because I've never really thought about it Blush
I'm using FF and Fitbit and they've both given me two different FW so I'm using OPK already as O is predicted either Friday or Boxing Day!

TtcIAm · 19/12/2018 15:16

cd16 no positive opk or temp rise yet but continuing dtd every other day to hope that i get a good chance

where is everyone else at ?

emcrave · 19/12/2018 15:21

Im currently on cd13, negative OPK’s for the last 3 days but need to test later! Starting to get a few twinges so hopefully will ovulate any day now!

HJWT · 19/12/2018 15:25

@TtcIAm had my Implant removed yesterday getting cramps now so waiting for AF 😱😂

WatchingTheWheels85 · 19/12/2018 17:19

Cd11 here and have just got my static smiley on the cb digital!

TtcIAm · 19/12/2018 20:02

hopefully your periods restart quickly for you :)

just took an opk and this is the darkest it has got since being diagnosed with pcos so i'm hopeful that the metformin is working

Hopping on the bus 👋🏼
I've no idea what cd im on, I've had dark brown discharge and spotting for a few days, and one splash of bright red a few days ago 🤷🏼‍♀️
I started taking B6 last month to extend my luteal phase so think that's changing things up.

Anyway -
Cycle 6
Ttc #1
Age - 34

Having a bash at acupuncture next month!

ronniemipperton · 20/12/2018 08:46

Hi all.

Cycle: lost count (over 2 years, with a MMC in July)
Age: 33
CD: 1

Here’s to 2019 being the year this TTC business works out...

Chanel05 · 20/12/2018 10:31

CD16 (usually ovulate on CD18) had my first flashing smiley this morning. Dtd last night and will continue to do so every night until Sunday!

stormtrooperjulian · 20/12/2018 11:15

Hopping on!

TTC#1
Cycle 6
AF due 13th/14th Jan

I should be ovulating around New Year’s Day so lots of nice relaxing time off for plenty of dtd.

Fingers crossed for a good start to 2019 for everyone!

Fortheloveofscience · 20/12/2018 11:31

I’m on the other bus thread but might jump on here too.

Age 31
Cycle 1
TTC #1
AF due 7 Jan(ish)

My tracker is suggesting I’ll ovulate on CD 13 but since I’m still spotting on CD 6 I think it’ll be a couple of days later like last month, making it 29th Dec. Bloody pre-conception vits messing with my cycle!

Suggested to DH that we DTD last night for the first time without a condom and he had a minor freak-out Grin. Luckily he’s got a few days to get over it, he’s desperate for a baby so needs to get his head round the fact that unprotected sex is kind of necessary!!

WatchingTheWheels85 · 20/12/2018 12:08

@Fortheloveofscience my af is due on the 6th I'm cd12.

emcrave · 20/12/2018 12:36

My AF is due on the 5th so seems a few of us are around the same cycles @WatchingTheWheels85
Im still getting negative OPK’s but my ovia app says I should ovulate over the weekend, so just keeping up with the OPKs! Good luck everyone xo

thosethreewords · 20/12/2018 14:07

Have we got a calendar or something to keep track of when everyone is POAS?
