Hi ladies

Please tag away anyone you think would want to be added...

@bluetue @ceebee21 @dizzy85 @Jonesbabynumber1 @Tbug

And welcome to any newbies that want to join this mad mad world of trying to conceive x

@babyb19 @dizzy85 having IC were worst thing for me I won’t be buying any more I went from 2 frer the previous months to about 15 🙈 it was not good for my stress levels lol. I’m sticking to two frer a month and I have a back up clear blue for if the test is positive just to see it digitally. A girl I know has just caught with IVF after about 2 years and I’m so happy for her imagine the stress of it all. I may not have caught straight away but glad to still be in the normal window of trying.

I need this group!!!!

I know @dizzy85 I'm sure it will be a different story when we're climbing the walls this time next week! Hahah!
@Jonesbabynumber1 it is so hard but the not knowing kills me! At least the ICs don't bankrupt me! It would be so hard having to do IVF, as bad as the MMC was at least I know I'd managed to get caught in the first place!
Welcome @Ange211 what's your story? X

@BabyB19 yes that’s worrying me I hear most people catch quickly and then either go full term or sadly have a MMC. Except a barley there positive I had so a possible CP I haven’t caught. Every experience of TTC is stressful but it must be less stressful once you have the one.

I think In one way it's easier as I know it's happened once, but it's certainly more worrying as there's no answer as to why it's happened so next time I catch I will be so much more worried @Jonesbabynumber1

@babyb19 yes it’s good to know you and your partner have been able to conceive but will be stressful once you get the BFP, but I’ll be the same after learning about how often it happens x

Where to start..... Very lucky to have 2 ds but was diagnosed with secondary infertility (blocked tubes) after ds1 & mc1 fast forward 4 years and found out I was pregnant with ds2. We always wanted a big family so started TTC again straight away. Had mc2 this time last year (took 2 years) and mc3 on the 10th Nov. Currently waiting impatiently on Positive opk/bfp/AF whichever comes first.
TTC is hell but ultimately worth it.

How amazing that you got 2 already though @Ange211 you must feel very lucky. Horrible that youve had 3 mc's though it's a horrible thing to have to go through. Fingers crossed you're back in a cycle quickly.
I don't think any of us have had the dream scenario @Jonesbabynumber1 it's hard for everyone in different ways isn't it. We will all get there eventually though x

@BabyB19 yes I do feel lucky especially given all our difficulties TTC. I just hope my luck hasn't run out!

I keep everything crossed for you that it hasn't @Ange211 🤞🏼 x

Two app- different days for ovulation.... opk has just got a bit stronger today hoping it's in the next few days

@mrscl19 I have the same one app says cd12 and other cd16 so going to bd every other day to cover it

Hi all, hope you're well today.

I'm now on CD 43, 10 days late and still bfn :(

@cheetos gosh 43days I was stressing when I was 3 days late so can imagine how horrible that feeling is. The moment you stop thinking about it something will happen that’s what happened to me x

Thanks @Jonesbabynumber1. I'm not stressing that much about it - although it is annoying that if this isn't my month I can't work out my next cycle!

I may have ovulated really late but I'm not sure as I stopped testing after I got a positive opk at CD 14.

Nothing to do but wait and see I guess. Fingers crossed for everyone x

Just in case anyones looking for a cheaper alternative for their poas addiction 😂

I've read about this toothpaste thing before, has anyone had a go? I don't think I trust it 🤣 @Ange211

Nah think its been widely de-bunked but never say never.....you just don't know when you might find yourself without stick to pee on and have the urge 😂

@BabyB19 @ange211 my husband will definitely think I’ve lost it if I start peeing on toothpaste 😂😂😂

Mine was clearing out the bathroom the other day and found packets of ICs and OPKs galore. If he does think I'm mental he did a good job of brushing it under the carpet and leaving me to it! It's mental how in one swift shift you're mindset can change, 2 weeks of complete chill abs today I've opk's and it's stark white which I think means I've already OV, so obviously I want to start POAS ASAP hahah @Jonesbabynumber1 @Ange211 @dizzy85 @Crazymummyto3 @ceebee21 @Cheetos @MrsCl19 @Blondeandbroody @Tbug who is still with us and how are we doing? x

I'm hopeless I did 2 opks & an ic today. My excuse is that I don't have a clue what's going on with my cycle this month! Will try harder tomorrow.

I'm here! @BabyB19
Doing my best to just chill but I did POAS four times the other night 🙄😂

In my defence it was more of a "I want to experience taking a test" as opposed to wanting to see if I was pregnant yet or not. I wasn't ha! I did 4 to make sure I tested correctly and only used by eBay cheapies.

Had a few symptoms but the kind that make you think is this real or in my head!

I am either 6dpo or 8dpo depending on which app is correct that's either 30 day cycle (due AF 18th) or a 28 day cycle (due 16th).

Waiting til at least Monday to test I think! We shall see might have blown through my internet cheapies by then 😂

@BabyB19 still here! My husband knows about my stash and just doesn't mention it I think for the easier life 😂

I'm CD 12 been doing opk for a while because I don't actually know when to start but they've all been around 0.22.... then today done 2 opk today first was 7am scanned in at 0.31 then 12pm was 0.41 then I'm gunna do another later to see if it's darker.... really hoping it's near

@BabyB19 I did an opk today and it was so faded compared to the one I did two days ago. So to be clear..do you get the positive opk then ovulate within like 24hours? Is that right? Anyway we dtd yesterday so if that's the case I'm hoping we timed right🤷‍♀️ I'm gonna try do it again tonight just for luck x

When you reach your peak you ovulate within 24-36 hours apparently and then it dips right back down @dizzy85

Glad we're all ok @Blondeandbroody @MrsCl19 4 tests in one night is some going 😭🤣 I don't think I've hit that number yet. I'm going to try and wait until 10dpo this month but in reality who knows how long I'll last 🤣
