Ovulation day - 2ww just starting

Anyone fancy a little obsessing? 😂
I'm apparently ovulating today according to peak clearblue yesterday and my apps.
I never used to have such a long luteal phase as it was only 10 days so having to wait for 14 is going to drive me nuts 🙈

@Lauraliverpool absolutely. This month I sort of thought, well timing is obviously important but in the olden days they just DTD all the time and out popped the babies 😂🙈 so if it was good enough for them, it's good enough for me hehehe!!

Treaclepie19 · 22/10/2019 14:17

@Lauraliverpool we normally manage every other day for fertile week.
It's a struggle with trying to get our little one to bed.
We have conceived 3 times doing that though.

@Treaclepie19 that's really handy to know and gives me a little more confidence. This month I just wanted to try and do as much as possible to cover everything. So 🤞🏻 it worked!!

Treaclepie19 · 22/10/2019 14:42

🤞🤞 for you @Gigi318!!

Yeah the times we've had a bfp I've always been sure we haven't dtd enough!

@Treaclepie19 hehehehe 🙈 every other day feels like so much hehe!! Last month we did twice just before as OH was away and then I think I got O day wrong anyway 🙄 so I was determined to actually give it a shot and we did so who knows! So tough being in this last stretch isn't it!!

Lauraliverpool · 22/10/2019 14:54

That made me smile @Gigi318 😂 just gonna have to say to hubby need to get on with it more!! Lol!! Just don't know whether to jib off the ovulation tests this try and see what happens! Xx

Lauraliverpool · 22/10/2019 14:59

@Treaclepie19 with my cycles seeming to change by a few days, we dtd The day I got a high and the two days of peak, maybe we should have done a few more days after that aswell. My cycles seem to vary by a few days. Just trying to work out fertile week aswell and going by Flo app too. Xx

Treaclepie19 · 22/10/2019 15:11

@Lauraliverpool apparently mine now vary by up to 10 days 😭

Every other day only lasts about a week at most. It's too much 😂

Gigi318 · 22/10/2019 15:18

@Lauraliverpool hehehehe, it's true though don't you think 😂🙈 even if it's just for a week! If you think you can pinpoint your O day or you're able to DTD every other day/everyday in the FW then ditch them. BUT I do think they are handy for reassurance. Not that I've used them before but definitely want to if not already PG!

@Treaclepie19 definitely. 4-5 times in that week was tough. We did 3 days in a row and then day 4 I welcomed the break 🙈 we enjoyed it but I just needed some rest hehe!

Lauraliverpool · 22/10/2019 16:08

@Treaclepie19 I tried to explain to my hubby we need to be trying more through the month. I'm now thinking that we should have tried the other days of highs but I think on one of those nights our little boy was up really late cause he'd slept for a few hours in the afternoon. It's mad how they seem to vary sometimes just adds to all the stress 😬 I wonder what hubby is gonna say when I tell him what the doctor recommended 😂

Lauraliverpool · 22/10/2019 16:11

Haha @Gigi318 can only try hey!! 😂 They do come in handy for reassure hubby has said gives you an idea but then when you start testing and you get the high/peak result it's then trying.

Gigi318 · 22/10/2019 16:16

@Lauraliverpool exactly!!! Hehehe. I think having a chat with him could help. See what he thinks re the OPKs and if he is happy with the 3-4 times a week then maybe you could ditch them. Definitely hard to work out what's best!

I'm so exhausted today and feeling a but crampy. Every twinge I'm like 👀 still no more brownish CM or AF. And can't say spotting ever dried up before AF came before but 🤷‍♀️🙈

Lauraliverpool · 22/10/2019 18:05

@Gig318 I think it will be good, I've just said I don't know whether to bother with the opks and he said gives you a rough idea.
Feeling quite tired myself today didn't get a great nights sleep my little lad woke up and ended up with me and I had a tiny bit of space and he was spread over the entire bed lol. Sounding positive, are you testing tomorrow??

Gigi318 · 22/10/2019 18:16

@Lauraliverpool oh that's good. Won't hurt to use them then 🙌🏻👏🏻
Awww love you. That sounds like my dog 😂🙈 I end up with no room with him and OH spread out hehehe!!
I'm not sure. I think I might do Thursday! I'm just really worried about seeing a BFN as I only have the one left! Lol!! Xx

Gigi318 · 22/10/2019 18:17

Also! My cramps are quite strong now. Still no AF. Will see how they progress. But hopefully it stops as not really enjoying this 😂🙈

gigi32 · 22/10/2019 22:11

@Gigi318 still waiting for af here! If I'm not pregnant I'd like it to come today as it works well for the next fertile window! Arghhhhjhj sore boobs and sore lower back again today but that could just mean af so not having positive thoughts! And I'll be dammed if I'm spending $10 on a preg test to see a bfn. If I knew it was going to be positive, I'd spend a lot more 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lauraliverpool · 22/10/2019 22:39

Awwh @Gigi318 hoping for better sleep tonight 🤞bet you wouldn't have it any other way haha!!
Know what you mean about seeing a bfn, I got some cheapy tests off Amazon once to curb my slight addiction to testing 😳 bet you just want to know one way or another now.

gigi32 · 23/10/2019 04:27

Farrrkkkkkkk YES!!!!!

Ovulation day - 2ww just starting
Mummy2Babba · 23/10/2019 04:55

Ladies do yous mind if I gatecrash ☺️
I am 9dpo and been having what feels like ligament pains in my pelvis and lower back ache since around 6dpo?

Only dtd once in fertile period and it was the day I got my peak . Also after bd I noticed EWCM (sorry tmi) which followed with ovary pain and temp rise that night so I’m assuming I ovulated after dtd that night .
I really hope this is my month 🥴. Do yous think I am in with a chance 🙌🏽🙌🏽. Ovia app says 3 days to test ! Good luck to yous all 💖💖

Mummy2Babba · 23/10/2019 04:57

Huge congratulations gigi32! H and h pregnancy dust to u!
I really hope this is my month even though it would be a one shot ! Aaaaah

Treaclepie19 · 23/10/2019 06:15
