@Explorers10 I’m due to ovulate next Wednesday :). What about you?

Explorers10 · 19/01/2019 17:22

@chanel05 due to ovulate on Thursday. I’m trying to be positive and forget about previous cycles! Let’s hope we both have some luck. Let me know how you get on & if you get any early symptoms!

Chanel05 · 19/01/2019 17:26

Me too! Best of luck. What cycle are you on @Explorers10?

abcriskringle · 19/01/2019 17:31

Yes me! Not sure exactly when as cycles are a little erratic but somewhere around Tuesday-Friday I think. Using OPKs to pinpoint!

Explorers10 · 19/01/2019 17:34

@chanel05 cycle 3, what about you? Are you going to do anything different? I’ve bought conceive plus fertility lube this month and will DTD every other day. Crossing fingers and toes, really feels like pot luck

Explorers10 · 19/01/2019 17:38

@katnisskringle I will also be using OPKs as got a few left that I didn’t use last month.

I’m going away over the weekend for a girlie holiday so I’m hoping I don’t ovulate late!

OP posts:
abcriskringle · 19/01/2019 17:41

@Exolorers10 good luck! So awkward with timings isn't it. I have a feeling I ovulate later than I used to so interested to see what the OPKs say.

Explorers10 · 19/01/2019 17:59

@katnisskringle yes it's so awkward as the weekend was arranged months ago and didn't think at all about timings! Maybe it will give me time to chill out and forget about TTC

@Explorers10 I used soy isoflavones this month and I’m getting acupuncture late in the 2ww. I’m on cycle 7 now, you name it, I’ve tried it! 😂

abcriskringle · 19/01/2019 19:10

@Explorers10 might be the best way! I fell pregnant with my first with absolutely no idea about when I ovulated or tww symptoms or anything and bam - pregnant literally the first try. This time I tracked everything diligently beforehand so I knew cycle length, took vitamins and folic acid, did OPKs aaaaand...onto 7th cycle with not even the slightest whiff of a bfp! It's so frustrating but equally I know I can't complain as I already have a child and 7 months is nothing compared to some people....still annoying!

Explorers10 · 19/01/2019 19:34

@chanel05 really hope this month is your month with everything you are trying. Which number are you trying to conceive?

@katnisskringle I can so relate to you. My first also happened on first cycle and was just let’s see how we get on with no pressure or tracking! I think I was so shocked 2nd time round trying that I immediately thought something was wrong but I know it does take months

OP posts:
ChikiTIKI · 19/01/2019 19:41

Me! Not sure exactly when as my cycles vary in length and this is my first cycle after having a miscarriage in December. Also first month using OPKs. Anyone here used to using them? I might need some help decoding them this week!!

Good luck everyone xxxx

abcriskringle · 19/01/2019 19:54

@Explorers10 we are in the same boat! It's so weird isn't it?!

@chikiTIKI I am using opks this month! What type are you using? I have the cheapie dip test ones off amazon. I have used them before and got blazing, unmistakable positives so hoping that happens again this month.

Chanel05 · 19/01/2019 19:59

@Explorers10 I’m ttc number 1 what about you?

Cinderella812 · 19/01/2019 20:05

Clue tells me I am due to ovulate on Wednesday (but I am not temp tracking or using OPKs, so that prediction is based purely on my cycle history and timings).

Fingers crossed!

Cycle 1 here.
DH doesn't like the pressure of knowing, so we may not even DTD in my fertile window, unless he so happens to feel like it.

Explorers10 · 19/01/2019 20:17

@chanel05 TTC number 2

@chikitiki I'm using clear blue OPKs

@katnisskringle yes it's weird, I'm glad it's not just me. Maybe that we just that bit older it's taken longer. really hoping it happen soon and trying to relax

@cinderella812 I so understand my DH also hates pressure & routine, wants to go with the flow

Paddypaws91 · 19/01/2019 20:31

Yes! Ovulation due Thursday, fertile window starts tomorrow. Cycle 2 - bring it on Grin

FX everyone!

Lammoshay · 19/01/2019 23:21

25th for me
Cycle 2
Tried last month but think I ovulated early and just missed as DTD last 3 days of OV when should have done 1st 3.
For some opk’s this month and basal temp so fingers crossed 🤞
Good luck to you all- lots of baby dust. X

ChikiTIKI · 20/01/2019 09:13

@KatnissKringle I am using the Amazon ones called Clear Response xx

HMIB · 20/01/2019 11:04

Please can I join. I should ovulate some time this week! I haven't taken an opk yet today. Might be tmi but I check my cervix to see what it's doing and it's started to open and become soft. So I'm definitely going in the right direction.

This Is my first month trying, AF came back for the first time in 15 moths since having my last baby. Was breastfeeding and he's just weened so that's why it's come back.

Baby dust to everyone!!

Explorers10 · 20/01/2019 11:35

Welcome to all those who have joined! We are all on the same window of ovulation so it’s good to get a group of us so feel free to write any thoughts, experiences, symptoms etc. Hopefully we get our BFP in a few weeks! Baby dust to everyone Smile

Me too! Long time lurker, first time poster.

OV due Tue according to Clue app.
Peak fertility smile today on CBFM
TTC #2
Cycle 4

For some reason I thought it would take a long time to conceive DS. We were lucky and shocked to conceive the 2nd month of trying. Then I got it in my head #2 would be quick too, so it's a bit dispiriting to be on cycle 4 now.

This cycle I'm trying Preseed for the first time after learning about it on here. Also taking folic acid and vit D.

Explorers10 · 20/01/2019 14:57

@littleredcup

Good luck! I know the feeling because it happened quickly first time you expect it to happen quickly again the second time.

Hello, I'm due to OV this week so would love to join your thread 😊😊

I think it'll be around Tuesday. (I am away at the moment but off home later and will start my OPKs tomorrow.)

TTC baby #1. This will be cycle #3

Well 4 technically. I was pg in autumn but that sadly ended up with a TFMR at 13w. So, this is my 3rd cycle since being given go ahead to start trying again.

2018isanewyear · 20/01/2019 18:41

Hi, this morning I got the static smiley on cb digital opk.

We have been bd every other day for a week now. Now I have smiley I'm thinking every day for
3 days then back to every other. Should that cover it?

Sounds very formal but This is cycle 12 since mc at 8week and 16 in total
