@Maisy24 definitely not just you. I took it as a good sign. I had my positive OPK on the Sunday and it happened Monday mainly in the morning. So I took it as ovulating on the Monday x

Chlosavxox · 09/10/2019 16:39

Joining this thread now as I’ve just started my period so no luck this month 😔
I’m TTC baby number 1 after my miscarriage in July - after my period this will be my 2nd month of trying (got pregnant first month last time so I’m very disheartened)
I’m 20 years old, I have a 35(ish) day cycle so will be testing around 13th+ Nov so fingers crossed 🤞🏼

Nic555 · 09/10/2019 17:11

@chlosavxox welcome to our little group. Although im sorry you had to join from the October thread. Hopefully this is your month and your cycle is more settled xx

Hayley94 · 09/10/2019 17:34

I'm on cycle 1 after waiting 6 weeks for my first period. Next period due on the 1st November x

ceebee21 · 09/10/2019 21:12

Going to join as will likely test end of October or beginning of November. Had a MMC and ERPC last Tuesday....We want to start trying straight away...fingers crossed for OV next week xx

GoAwayAF · 09/10/2019 22:16

Cycle day 6 for me today and SMEP has officially begun 🤞🏻 Good luck everyone x
Baby dust!!

CouscousEvaporator · 10/10/2019 09:58

CD7 for me!
Enjoy, everyone 🤞🏻

dinomonkey · 10/10/2019 10:26

Right, CD 5 for me. First cycle with the Ovusense. I find bbt just a pain in the arse. We'll be doing SMEP this month or as we call it 'The Regime' / 'Gilead'

How's everyone doing? We decided to postpone DTD until Friday as (generally) I have longer cycles. Friday will be CD8 however I am using opks every evening so as not to miss anything! Feeling positive and more relaxed this month in terms of what will be will be and trusting my body to know when it's right.

Skygirl1983 · 10/10/2019 14:18

Hi all,
Can I tag along please? CD10 for me today. Going to dtd this weekend. I'm on a business trip from Monday to Wednesday next week so hoping the swimmers stick around! Going to try OPK for the first time over the weekend too to see if its likely to be any good!! Sending you all baby dust x

ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphia · 10/10/2019 14:49

@CouscousEvaporator so yeah it basically takes your temperature every 5 mins and then the temp it gives you in the morning is your average during the night. So as long as you don’t do a 5 mile run after letting the cat out is should be all good 😂

@MrsLEB is cool we are in the same situation (even if it is a bit of a shit one haha). We WILL get our BFP on the 5th!!!

@MrsLEB @Maisy24 hope your gearing up for the BD fest... god none of us are gonna know what’s hit us 😂

@Nic555 definitely agree! It’s so nice not having a wait for ages to be in with another change of conceiving because that alone really got to me! Here’s to another normal length cycle for us this time huh!

ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphia · 10/10/2019 14:52

Sooo ladies do I have SMEP correct?! (Decidedly we may as well give it a go but worried slightly as don’t wanna put DH under pressure as a couple times before he has got anxious about TTC and not been able to ‘perform’ 😔 bless him)

So I’m CD 6 ATM... we DTD every other day, then once I get a positive OPK, DTD 3 days in a row and then leave a day and then once more for good measure?

Hope you’re all good ladies x

Nic555 · 10/10/2019 18:20

@ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphia yes you got it right. I'm still deciding whether to do it or not. I may try but at same time not worry too much about it.

Our group has got so much bigger. Too many people to tag but looking forward to hopefully seeing a lot of BFP early November.

I'm cycle day 7 not doing OPK yet going to trust my body a bit more may start them in the next few days.

I'm away Saturday out with the girls so going to chill till after then hopefully by relaxing I'll ovulate early again.

Tip for those doing SMEP I used preseed last month and it was really good so may help if you end up having to BD loads before ovulating

I don't check BBT would anyone recommend. Is it just to confirm ovulation? xx

BurnerPhone · 10/10/2019 18:27

Hello 👋🏻

I'm TTC #2
Cycle 3

Got my smiley face on the clear blue ovu test this morning! Is it worth DTD today, tomorrow and weekend??

GoAwayAF · 10/10/2019 20:46

@Nic555 thanks for the preseed tip! Not tried anything like that before I might invest!

Is everyone feeling positive? It’s nice to see how supportive you all are to each other, hope this month is kind!

ceebee21 · 10/10/2019 23:11

I'm feeling negative atm haha, I had an ERPC last Tuesday following a MMC...I'm just waiting around for OV so we can start trying again...feel like it's gonna be ages before anything happens xx

CouscousEvaporator · 11/10/2019 08:19

Aw @ceebee21 it’s understandable to feel negative after your experience. Try to go easy on yourself 💐

I’m not feeling positive or negative, just feel accepting of what will be will be. We will probably get to have sex at some point during my FW but it probably won’t be enough!
I guess I’m feeling realistic 😆 it’s crap with shift work!

@BurnerPhone yes I would try those days after a static 🤞🏻

Nic555 · 11/10/2019 19:54

@ceebee21 try not to put too much pressure on yourself. It can take a bit of time to get your body back to normal. Fingers crossed for you

@BurnerPhone sounds a good plan. That's what I'll be doing this time when I get my smiley

@CouscousEvaporator it only takes one sperm 😂 says me who tries every day in the fertile window just incase. It's true though I've seen lots of people have their BFP and only BD once in FW

ceebee21 · 12/10/2019 00:16

Well, more positive than earlier.. I seem to have stopped bleeding, pregnancy test pretty much negative now (the faintest faint line you ever did see..) and I have my 1st flashing smiley...fingers crossed that faint line has gone over the weekend xx

CouscousEvaporator · 12/10/2019 06:49

@ceebee21 this is good news 🙂

I thought we were being super chilled TTC but OH said to me last night I need to let him know when I’m in my fertile window as the program “the great sperm race” said we need to do it every other day 😂

ceebee21 · 12/10/2019 08:13

@CouscousEvaporator haha I said when I had my implant removed I wouldn't be one to monitor everything. How wrong I was haha. But how can you not when you know the time frame is pretty small each month! Xx

MrsLEB · 14/10/2019 09:02

So SMEP isn't going well for us so far this month... we were enjoying the well earned break since the TWW and AF arrival. I suggested to start on CD8 rather than CD6 as my cycles are longer and it became a long slog last month at the end (which was the most important time!) CD8 arrived (Friday) and we were too tired from work so it didn't happen. Then on Saturday we were so deprived we DTD twice! So we are all out of sync now 😂 have been opking but nothing positive yet.
