Hi all!

Sorry for the late response!

I don't really have a plan as such, just lots of dtd and hoping for the best!

I was incredibly lucky first time around as I only had two periods and I got pregnant so hoping for the same this time!

Although last time there was no pressure and it was a sort of "it'll happen when it happens" attitude but this role I'm so so so excited and desperate so I just need to chill out.

Looking forward to our journey together ladies. Good luck!

@introv3rt hello!

Ooooh might have to check that one out. I use "Ovia" but it's very American. I used that first time around too and they do a great follow on pregnancy app.

Good luck!

I'm using Ovia too! I really like it but it is pretty America centric, but I like all the symptoms etc you can track on it

@CooperLooper yeah, it's really thorough and detailed and for a free app, doesn't exactly what it needs to!
