@Laur89 ohh interesting!! Actually I really want to try the smep (is that what it's called?) Plan. So last time we DTD was Saturday, then I will run through Wednesday to Saturday dtd every day then every other day after that I think. I know it's not the proper way to do that plan but if this way doesnt work this month then I'll follow it properly next month! I've got preseed too just as a helping hand lol
Good luck to you too chick xx

Robbo93 · 29/10/2019 19:01

@Laur89 I'm with you this month and not tracking anything! Only my cycle day which is currently CD13 😁

Ellsbells112 · 29/10/2019 19:33

@farmmumtomillie welcome! Good luck the for this month! I have a 10 rating for this saturday coming and my period is due 16th. Fingers crossed for you x

Laur89 · 29/10/2019 20:42

How are you finding not tracking @Robbo93? Which app are you using for cycle days? I don't even know how many I am now but probly a bit behind you 😆

Robbo93 · 30/10/2019 07:14

@Laur89 I'm finding it ok, less stressful but at the same time panicking in case we don't DTD at the right time. I'm not even gonna say to DH when I think I'm ovulating this month, I'm just gonna let him take the lead instead.
I use Glow, I don't think it's very accurate but it's mainly just to track my cycle lengths more then anything else x

farmmumtomillie · 30/10/2019 07:32

@Robbo93 often you find less is more when it comes to sex because the sperm have time to mature and so a fertilised egg has more of a chance because the sperm was mature, of higher quality and ready 🤞🤞🤞

Robbo93 · 30/10/2019 08:23

@farmmumtomillie I hope so chick. We last DTD Sunday morning so I'm kinda hoping he jumps on me tonight 😂

farmmumtomillie · 30/10/2019 08:33

Haha, maybe give him subtle clues or sexy moves and see if it gets him riled up 😂

Laur89 · 30/10/2019 14:02

@Ellsbells112 what's the smep plan? 😂😂🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Hi ladies! How are we all! I finally found the thread. Hurrah. Where about are you all in the cycle?? Any BFPs???

Gigi318 · 30/10/2019 20:44

OMG just saw you thought I was missing. I'm here, I'm here 🤣🙋‍♀️ just been trying to stay as relaxed as possible!!!

Robbo93 · 31/10/2019 07:29

Hurrah! Welcome back @Gigi318
CD15 for me today! DTD last night and not doing OPKs or checking my CM that much this month. Only taking B6 tablets to see if that makes a difference.
Also ordered preseed for next time just in case🤞

Ellsbells112 · 31/10/2019 08:34

@Laur89 smep sperm meets egg plan lol you DTD every other day from like cd8 then when you get a positive on opk you DTD for 3 days then every other day again I think? I'll look it up properly when I'm ready to do it 🤣

How is everyone?

@Gigi318 there you are!!

CD13 for me, no sign of ovulation? No positive opks but I've never had one huff but also no pain? I normally get ovulation pain but research shows sometimes you dont get any signs! Anyway I was too tired to DTD last night, gonna do it tonight through to sunday I think...I dunno! I'm getting frustrated, should I wait till I see correct cm? Who bloody knows I'm just getting fed up already! Lol

Laur89 · 31/10/2019 21:37

Oh @Ellsbells112 I've not heard of that 😂 sounds interesting though!
@Gigi318 yay glad you have found us, we thought you had vanished 😆😆😆

Hey hows everyone?? This thread has gone very quiet!

I'm in my fertile phase, dtd last night and used preseed! My partner liked it hahah so that's a good thing! Ready to go again tonight 🤣🤣 not much else to tell!

I hope everyone is doing okay xx

Robbo93 · 01/11/2019 16:39

Hi @Ellsbells112 I think I'm entering my fertile period too & I have also purchased preseed so I'll try and use it this month!

I had a gynae appt (for something else) but I touched on TTC. They've booked me in for day 21 bloods and then again for the following month to see if I'm ovulating and I've also got to have bloods done when I start my AF to test my FSH levels? Glad to finally have the ball rolling I suppose! Xx

Togstiree · 01/11/2019 16:53

Hey Ladies. Good luck to every one.
Got married in September and TTC#2 #1 was miscarriage almost 10 years ago. Been off the pill now for 3 weeks. Due Af in 12 days.

charlie0692 · 01/11/2019 17:16

Hi everyone, I'm in the fertile period too, got a feeling I may have ovulated yesterday, I had some mild on off cramping all afternoon. Af due 14th. Feeling really down at the minute, I've found out in the last few days that a friend, my cousin and a work colleague are pregnant and I cant help but feel really jealous, I know that's so bad but I cant help it x

Ellsbells112 · 01/11/2019 19:12

Hey @Robbo93 that's awesome! Definitely good to have the ball rolling! How long have you been trying? This time around I havent had as much cervical mucus so I think it's a good thing I got preseed! I havent had pain like I normally do every month either but still hoping it's all working x

@charlie0692 I know it sounds awful but I totally get you, sometimes it's so hard to stay positive when its not happening to you and you just yearn for it so badly 🤗🤗

@Togstiree welcome aboard! Good luck to you too x

Robbo93 · 01/11/2019 19:15

@Ellsbells112 only since January, so not quite a year but near enough!
You can only try, fingers crossed it works for both of us! X

Robbo93 · 01/11/2019 19:17

@charlie0692 don't feel bad hun, I think every woman who is TTC is the same...
I walked past dude the other day carrying a baby and I cursed him under my breath. No idea why as I don't know the poor chap but jealousy is a bitch 😂

Ellsbells112 · 01/11/2019 19:29

@Robbo93 yeah so still it's good to start now and see if theres any issues. How about your partner will he get checked too?

Yeah when you want it so badly it's hard not to feel down when it's all around you!

charlie0692 · 01/11/2019 19:29

@robbo93 😂😂😂 it's nice to know it's not just me 🙈 @ellsbells112 fingers crossed for us all this month xx
