@TizzyTess welcome and sorry to hear about your loss 💕 were all hear if you need to talk!

@flossy12 yeah enjoy your time away and see what happens with it when you get back 🤞🏻

@mommato3 that sounds great! Not too far to love either! Would you need to get a van? Or walkable?

@Sophieb15 oh wow I've had pain like that before but not in my nipples 😲
🤞🏻 for no symptoms for you 😁
Yeah exactly, I think it's just because it happened so quickly I know I'll be disappointed if it doesn't again. 😩

@Jojowash I think if you have the ewcm you should definitely be in with a chance. Also without sounding gross sperm can live in you for 5 days and the egg takes a few days to travel so you have a few days either side definitely!

Sophieb15 · 20/06/2019 16:47

@Jojowash It has got really busy on here the last few days i'm getting confused which conversations I have had with ppl.

Our main aim is to help everyone NOT to test early and wait until 14 days after confirmed Ovulation and then if you haven't got AF then test.

Thank you we are all here to support each other.

Jojowash · 20/06/2019 16:51

@Abi58

Yeah hopefully!! Thank you!

Sophieb15 · 20/06/2019 17:06

Is it just me or does everyone else just not BD during the TWW Because we are so sick of it during fertile window Shock

Jojowash · 20/06/2019 17:40

@Sophieb15

Thanks chick

Abi58 · 20/06/2019 17:52

@Jojowash 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

July bus
Hannah1925 · 20/06/2019 18:15

Hi again guys. Does anyone ever have spotting before their period. The last two months I've had about 5 days spotting before it actually starts (from about 10dpo). Does this mean that the egg can't actually attached as I'm spotting? Usually my breats kill but they didn't last month which is why I thought I was pregant but then AF arrived.

Thanks everyone xxx

Emma272 · 20/06/2019 18:27

Hi @Sophieb15
No it's not just you 😂, I'm definitely feeling the same this month.

Currently on CD14, had my surge on CD12 so giving it one more go today (sorry if TMI). Been following the SMEP plan this last week.

@Abi58 I'm impressed, that's commitment to the BD 😂!!

Hope everyone is doing ok, been trying to keep up with all the posts. Good luck to everyone who is in their tww now x

Sophieb15 · 20/06/2019 20:13

@Abi58 oh my god 🤣🤣🤣
We can’t do mornings my LO wakes at the dawn 🙈🙈
@Hannah1925 I haven’t ever spotted but my sister came off the pill because it was giving her headaches (she’s not TTC) but she was only telling the the other day the last 3 months she’s having spotting before her proper period. She has 2 kids already that only took her 4 months each time to conceive so I wouldn’t be worried!! Try the pineapple 😁 it’s supposed to help implantation.

@Emma272 your in the TWW so 😁😁😁😁

Hannah1925 · 20/06/2019 20:19

@sophieb15 thank you! Makes me feel a bit better. Yep I've had pineapple 👍🍍🍍

Abi58 · 20/06/2019 20:32

@Hannah1925 sorry I can't help immune are ridiculously light so could say the whole thing was spotting but not specifically before. I wouldn't say it would stop the egg as you still have plenty there. What dpo do you normally start spotting?

@Emma272 😂 that's not any different to normal before ttc 😂 only difference is after coming off the pill I'm much hornier around ov early nature's way of making sure we procreate 😂

@Sophieb15
😁 oh if we are lucky enough to ttc number 2 we'll be the Same lol.

Lauralozzle · 20/06/2019 20:46

I've missed so much in a day!

Ovulation has definitely occurred, I've dried up, had twinges/very mild cramps, CP has dropped and felt closed this morning. I can literally feel the rising progesterone as my boobs today feel heavier, fuller and if I jiggle them they're ever so slightly sore. This is a very normal indication that ovulation has happened for me, as I always have terrible PMS and some months by boobs are very sore. It definitely will not be a symptom down the line. Bloody impossible to be anything but ovulation symptom at the moment!

I think I've messed up our chances though this month, night before blaring positive opk we managed to BD, but night of positive opk I fell asleep and didn't wake up until it was about 7:00 and was nearly late for work. Last night (ovulation day) I fell asleep again, was trying to stay awake (OH was on his computer games) but obviously I didn't because next thing I knew the alarm was blaring and I had to get ready to go to work. I am going to try again tonight, but given the fact boobies are already heavy I'm guessing that ship has sailed. I was very good around my expected ovulation date, but didn't actually get a positive opk until 4 days later so...

Still, sex day before positive opk, and sex around beginning of fertile period so not totally out, there's still still a chance. Just not a very high one! I will do better next cycle!

@TizzyTess Welcome

@Sophieb15 i imagine BD will be less frequent in the 2WW - but then again we're in a cottage next week on holiday, and for some reason, holiday = BD

@Hannah1925 I usually spot 1-2 days before AF. Usually very light, discharge gets darker, like a light rusty colour, then brown, then pinkish brown and then I usually start. I wouldn't have thought it'd stop the egg though.

@Abi58 I'm exhausted just looking at your chart!

mommato3 · 21/06/2019 07:31

@Abi58 We'll still need a van. We're clearing a 3 bed containing 7 people. 2 heavy double beds and a triple sleeper aswell as a single and the spare single as the triple sleeper is for OH's girls and we had to dismantle my sons bed which is the spare but we'll need to use his when we get moved.

All in good fun haha

GemSmith738 · 21/06/2019 08:44

Jumping off the June bus and joining July bus!!

TTC #1
Cycle 5
Age 27
CD 2
AF due 25th

Sophieb15 · 21/06/2019 09:10

@Hannah1925 what DPO are you now? I'm on my 5th day of pineapple one more to go Smile

@Lauralozzle What day are you going on holiday? It's great because it will def take your mind off the TWW

@GemSmith738 Welcome to the July bus. Fingers crossed this is your month are you using OPKs?

Abi58 · 21/06/2019 09:24

@Lauralozzle yay!! Only 2 weeks to wait now 🙈

If you bd in the fertile window you're in with a chance!

😂 we are a bit extreme but been like that since we got together 😂

Oh wow that's a lot! Yes definitely a can! We had one of those huge huge lorries for 2 of us 😂 (done in one go though)

That will definitely keep you busy!

@GemSmith738 welcome😁

Lauralozzle · 21/06/2019 09:34

@Sophieb15 we go on Monday. I’m on holiday mode already - our for a meal with friends for friends 30th tomorrow night (will have a drink or two but not get drunk - I’ll be 3dpo by that point, implantation won’t have occurred by that point) Sunday we drop of the dog and then Monday morning we’re off - staying five nights in a cottage. I can’t wait, it’ll take my mind off everything.

I’ve had a smarmy email this morning off a colleague I was giving feedback to - which is part of my role - basically saying I’m picking on her which isn't the case so I’m glad I’m off next week after I try and sort it.

Lauralozzle · 21/06/2019 09:35

@Abi58 we were like that in the beginning- wish I still had the stamina!

Abi58 · 21/06/2019 09:48

@Lauralozzle that sounds lovely! It's up to everyone what they do but I've read that nothing really should affect until the umbilical forms around 5-6 weeks. When I had my chemical last month dr went through it and said that (I hadn't done these but he just reeled off a list) drank, smoked, coffee, activities, etc so definitely a fees are fine until you find out (I've read a phrase that I like drink til it's pink 😂)

Wow, feedback is feedback you have to take it and work from it to improve not blame the person telling you! Especially if that's part of your job 🙄

Sounds like you'll very much enjoy your time off 😁

I imagine it will tail off a bit if we are lucky enough to have a little one waking us up and staying in our bed 😁🤞🏻

Sophieb15 · 21/06/2019 10:10

@Lauralozzle I'm off for a spa day dinner and drinks tomorrow so looking forward to that.

Guys boobs already a bit tender and only 5DPO so i'd say i'm out already Sad

@Abi58 how you feeling?

GemSmith738 · 21/06/2019 10:18

@Abi58 & @Sophieb15 thank youuu! I'm using OPK's and clear blue connect. I'm exhausted 😂

Hannah1925 · 21/06/2019 10:33

@sophieb15 I haven't ovulated yet. I'm CD 15 and usually ovulate CD 17 or 18 xxx

Sophieb15 · 21/06/2019 10:47

@GemSmith738 haha It's tough work Smile

@hannah1925 ah your nearly there so loads of BD so Smile

Abi58 · 21/06/2019 11:14

@Sophieb15

Yeah I feel ok, 6dpo now. Still feeling sick and a bit disappointed my nipples aren't sore 😂
Although had a shooting twinge in my right boob earlier and twinges in my right pelvis along with butterflies down there 🙈

🤞🏻 but I'm not sure!

Don't forget pg and pms symptoms overlap so it could be either 🤞🏻

Had a temp dip this morning but had disturbed sleep (although thought if you wake and didn't get enough sleep before rewaking and temping it would be higher than it should and this is lower so I'm not sure what to think!)

@GemSmith738 what's cb connect? Are they opks?

@Hannah1925 not long to go and that should mean you're in your fertile window already :)

Islandermum · 21/06/2019 11:15
