@Gigi318 yasss to the fluffy pyjamas and bath! Heaven 🥰🥰 glad you feel better! I'm currently in bed snuggled watching a movie 🥰😁

Gigi318 · 04/10/2019 17:27

@Ellsbells112 that sounds perfect to me! Hopefully that will be me in a few hours. Hurrah! So glad it's the weekend!!

Ellsbells112 · 06/10/2019 18:21

@Gigi318 heyyy girl how are you how has your weekend been?

How is everyone else who is still active here xx

Gigi318 · 06/10/2019 18:27

@Ellsbells112 hello chick, it's been okay. Lazy day yesterday and busy today with family. Chilled now though in my fluffy PJs! How are you?? O is soon for me xx

Robbo93 · 06/10/2019 18:36

Hiya 👋
Think I've ovulated this weekend but no positive OPK. Just going by symptoms. Xx

Gigi318 · 06/10/2019 18:39

@Robbo93 amazing. What have you had? I had some twinges Friday night and yesterday. Nothing today. CM is watery still and waiting on EWs. Hope I've not missed them. But O due Tuesday so could be tomorrow 🤞🏻💫

Robbo93 · 06/10/2019 18:46

@Gigi318 my OPKs are usually stark white, so I've had 2nd lines for a couple of days (although not positive), EWCM, nausea & lower back ache! (Oh & increased sex drive hehe 🤭)

Fingers crossed you Ov soon & back to the Tww xx

Gigi318 · 06/10/2019 18:52

@Robbo93 oh yes, sounds like O to me! Yes I've had some pinchy feelings, and increased sex drive. CM still watery as I said but it's increasing today so think EWs will be tomorrow 🤞🏻 will you count tomorrow as 1DPO? X

Ellsbells112 · 06/10/2019 20:15

@Gigi318 sounds lovely 😘 you're ovulating Tuesday?
I think I ovulated Friday or Saturday I dont know but DTD since Wednesday to Saturday just in case! So fingers crossed this month xx

Gems7 · 06/10/2019 20:44

Hey ladies!
Not sure when i ovulated but going off my last 2 cycles it will have been today? We have DTD every day since Tuesday though so even if my apps out by a day or so I think we have given it a good chance. I haven't felt any ovulation pains though like normal which is a bit confusing. Just the odd "twinge" here and there so we'll see. Still going to try and DTD as much as poss over the next week just in case I'm ovulating later than normal.
Feeling crappy today today, my other half as passed me his germs from the other day and I've been smothered in a cold all weekend. Currently wrapped up cuddling on the sofa
Hope you are all doing okay, the TWW madness is upon us! Haha or almost anyway
Fingers crossed for some BFP's this month Smile xxx

Hi folks, I’m just starting my TWW. Currently CD19, cycle 6 of trying for #2. Haven’t used OPKs this month or last month but I’m pretty sure I’ve ovulated as I get ovulation pains. Now just going to have to wait and see!

Gigi318 · 06/10/2019 20:55

@Ellsbells112 according to Flo I am. I think it could be tomorrow, will keep an eye out for EWs but will go with Tues if I don't spot anything. Unless, I see any after, of course! Yes also covering myself at the moment too. So are you going with 1DPO? Exciting stuff!!

@Gems7 that's good. Have you had any O symptoms other then the twinges? I know what you mean though, I've had odd twingey feelings like pulling on my left side. So it's left side ovulation then, for me! I really think it will be tomorrow that I do O. So that's exciting. If I spot the EWs I'll say it was then! Yes still try to cover yourselves. My OH is away Tues-Weds so will have to wait til Thurs to cover myself, but that will be CD17 anyway. Will still go for it in case I have EWs then!
Sorry to hear you're not feeling the best. Rest up and take it easy. Yes, so excited to almost be in the TWW again. I thought I hated it last month, but having AF was annoying not being able to do anything, and now I'm itching it get closer to then time to test 🙊🤞🏻💫

Robbo93 · 06/10/2019 20:55

@Gigi318 I thinking if I did ovulate, then it was yesterday or today. I'm gonna say yesterday and guess I'm 1DPO but could be extremely wrong 🤣 the only reason I'm thinking yesterday is because (sorry TMI here..) I felt very 'wet' down there all day yesterday and then once when I went toilet it was like a white creamy discharge in my underwear and I don't normally have any marks in my underwear at all.. 😳

@Gems7 colds are awful! I hope you start feeling better soon! If you've been taking cold&flu tablets then they can delay Ov xx

Gigi318 · 06/10/2019 20:57

@Robbo93 so hard to tell sometimes, isn't it. What day did you get the EWs? That would be hopefully quite accurate! I'm still waiting on mine but CM has been so watery so sure it's not far off 🙌🏻💫

Robbo93 · 06/10/2019 20:59

@Gigi318 thurs/fri/sat .. but it's hard to judge between CM & 'sperm' sometimes 😂 I've got a teeny bit of watery discharge today but not too much.

Gigi318 · 06/10/2019 21:10

@Robbo93 ahh hehehe I'm with you now 🤣 it can be can't it, looks like watery CM 🙈 for me though, EWCM is very distinguishable. Clear and jelly like, and all stretchy and gooey. And clumps of it! Sorry, TMI! Still not had it yet, but lots of watery. So sure it will be here soon 🙌🏻

Gigi318 · 06/10/2019 21:12

@Robbo93 I also only seem to get it/notice it once. I don't know if that's just me or if it's odd? But I only ever see it once and not throughout the day. It's weird 🙈 hope that's not a bad sign argh!!

Robbo93 · 06/10/2019 21:20

I seem to differ each month. Sometimes I have it once and I have to wipe like 6 times to get rid of it 🙈 other times (like this month) I can have less of it at once and spread over a longer period ..
I'm probably the one with it being wrong tho as like I've mentioned previously I think I've got too short of a LP so who knows 🤷‍♀️ I wish we were all the same when it comes to stuff like this haha

Ellsbells112 · 06/10/2019 21:33

@Gigi318 @Robbo93 going by CM is so confusing!! Actually this month I had EWCM for 3 days so Thursday Friday and Saturday and lots more than I usually have! Hoping that means something lol but also had creamy before the EWCM.yesterday too Haha so I've decided to not watch stuff so dramatically because I'll lose myself in it 🤣🤦‍♀️

Yes I'll be going with being 1dpo today me thinks! Good luck for the few days going forward Gigi...the tww is here!! Haha

Robbo93 · 06/10/2019 21:43

@Ellsbells112 blimey we sound the exact same this month. Let's hope it's good news for us both 🤞

Gems7 · 06/10/2019 22:21

@Robbo93 Thankyou huni, I have managed to hold off on taking anything so far for it, I'm just trying to let my immune system fight it because I know it will do in time, but I'm really struggling tonight. This time of year is common for colds though isn't it. I'll get over it. I just wanted to try and DTD tonight as I won't see my other half tomorrow due to work but I really don't feel up to it.

@Gigi318 not really had any other ovulation symptoms to be honest, usually I have really bad pain on one side for a couple of days but I've just had the odd twinge here and there so far this time. It can be different month by month though can't it and I never really see much EWCM in my cycles, maybe one day but it's always hard to spot. So god knows!! I am trying to be more relaxed this month though so maybe I'm just not noticing things the same as I was last month.
My OH is away tomorrow day/night. We can only try to cover all bases though can't we and hope for the best Smile
I will be keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you this month! Xx

Ellsbells112 · 06/10/2019 22:40

@Robbo93 we do actually Haha!

@Gems7 get well soon xx

Gigi318 · 07/10/2019 09:48

Morning ladies, how are we all?

@Robbo93 oh tell me about it, I'm always like is this normal? What does it mean?? So I love being able to chat to all of you lovely ladies and find out 😂🙊👌🏻

@Ellsbells112 eeek, I've still not spotted it yet. But it is really hard to keep an eye on anything when it's mixed with other bits, isn't it 😂🙈 drives me nuts. That's so good babe, think you have a really good chance this month. So excited for you 🤞🏻💫 thanks babe. OH away now so the TWW feels like it will start. But will officially be Weds. Unless I see EWs then, and we'll carry on when he is back. Probably will anyway, just to be sure!

Yes you and @Robbo93 matching this month and sounds like me and @Gems7 are too!

@Gems7 hope you feel better soon babe. My OH is also away now for a few days, so hope we've covered it all well enough. I also only get it once, unless I miss it other times. So we are very similar. Fingers crossed for us both this month. When are you counting your 1DPO as?

Gigi318 · 07/10/2019 09:50

FML - sorry about all of the bold!

Gems7 · 07/10/2019 11:37

@Gigi318 Good morning to you too.
You know what? I have no bloody idea when to start counting my DPO from, who the hell knows 😂. If I go by my last 2 cycles then today is 1DPO but I honestly have no clue because I haven't felt the usual ovulation pains. think I'm just winging it this month! We are quite similar aren't we, I think I've only spotted EWCM once before maybe and not in this cycle. My body definitely keeps me on my toes that's for sure, I start to develop a pattern and then it says "let's screw this up" and confuses me. So I'm just going to keep DTD as much as poss, expect AF on 21st October and hope for the best!

How are you this morning? Do you experience ovulation pains or anything? I don't think you are using OPK's either are you?

Hope everyone else is ok! Xx
