DECEMBER GROUP! December 26-30th testing group**

[oliwc12]

Hello everyone!
Creating a new group for ladies testing December 26-30th. This is cycle 2 TTC#1 for me. Last time I had a miscarriage but in a very early stage, most probably due to low progesterone levels. This time I am following a fertility nutrition plan and drinking Agnus castus and today is CD6.

Hiya. Can I join? On 2dpo on cycle 12 of ttc number 2 (EMC in sept). I’m due to test on 24th Dec!

Welcome newbies! I had a positive OPK yesterday so been DTD yesterday and today. Getting really serious with TTC with hubby 😅 not complaining though 😜 Let the TWW week begin. Anyone same as me? I am already in a Christmas mood and getting excited it might be the month 🙈

Hi ladies can I join too.. ovulating today and due for AF on 29 December. On cycle 1 of TTCfor #2, so let's see how it goes. Wishing everyone luck

I ovulated on the 9th so unless AF arrived early (LP seems to be about 11/12 days so quite probable) I'll be due on Christmas Day! I think I might wait until Boxing Day to test if she hasn't arrived...quite fancy a guilt-free glass of wine with my turkey 🦃

My maths is wrong, I'll be due on the 23rd! Oh well, I still might wait until after Christmas if I get that far...

CD10 for me, starting the IC OPK's, I expect I'll get a positive result on Wednesday, ovulating Thursday and I'd count 1DPO from Friday... we will see!! Wishing everyone lots of baby dust xx

So my OPK is darker than I thought it would be I may ovulate slightly earlier this month, does anyone else ever have this? Xx

I'm new here! I'm 27 TTC baby #1, 4th cycle and trying not to get really disheartened by it all!

So, here's a newbie stupid question... I had a positive OPK on Thursday evening and Friday morning - had gone by Friday 5pm.
DTD Thursday night (as well as a couple of days before that because you know... marriage).
Do I assume I ovulated yesterday (CD13) and so count today as TWW day 1? All the online calculators seem to say the percentage chance of ovulating that early are low and that ovulation should be like 16th based on my cycle length (28 days, give or take a day).

This whole thing is confusing.

EithneBlue- I would think you ovulated Friday and perhaps this will be a 27 day cycle if your luteal phase is 14 days? - this is why I do temping now as well as OPKs as I need to know exactly which day it was

Question for everyone- how often are you DTD around your fertile period? Daily or EOD? I've seen EWCM yesterday and today (cd9). We DTD last night. No positive OPKs yet... Thinking every other day until positive OPK and then maybe do that day plus day after just in case. Expecting to ovulate somewhere between cd 11-14 as slightly irregular cycles.

@CuppaTea86 I haven't really got an idea how long my Luteal Phase is... assume 14ish days but this is my first month tracking or looking at anything like this properly. You might be right though so I guess just wait and see :-)

DTD depends on our schedules - trying not to obsess or schedule so obsessively it kills the fun... although I absolutely made sure we timed it with positive OPK!

CD17 for me now and no signs of a 2nd line on opk 😔. Have had ewcm for the last 2 days right enough but nothing showing on the opks. I usually ovulate cd14-15 every cycle. I'm thinking my chemical last month has possibly delayed ovulation??

Morning ladies, can I jump in on this thread please. Currently ttc 2nd child. Only 1st cycle of trying this time round so we'll see. According to my app af is due the 24th Dec, but my last period was so early and messed up that I'm not really sure. Pretty sure I ovulated on 8/9th though so currently 6/7 dpo.

Might wait til after boxing day to test so I can have a guilt free drink. Not really sure. I don't remember the TWW being this loooonnnngg the last time

Good luck to all ttc xx

@LoveRainbow02
DTD anyway! It maybe screwed around with your hormones but I think OPKs aren't foolproof. EWCM is a good sign, I think :-)

@EithneBlue I had the same, ovulated on CD13 and I think there is nothing wrong with it

@CuppaTea86 We are DTD usually like everyday but we were always like this. Obviously when we argue or have a crazy schedule then there is a break 😉

CD24 of TTC #1. I think this is cycle 6 after stopping the pill which I’d been taking for best part of 15 years. My cycles have been very irregular and unpredictable in length but seems to be evening out now. In hindsight I should probably invest in OPK...but today on CD24 I have brown spotting. Not experienced this on any other cycle. Wondering if it’s implantation but don’t want to get hopes up. AF due 23.12 according to Flo.. we shall see! ✨🎄

The TWW has begun (only 1st cycle) and I am already driving myself crazy.... I don't know how others do it for so long!! It helps that I have others waiting with me. Fingers crossed for all of us!

I'm a little late to the party TTC no 3. month 1. AF due 28th. I'm trying not to symptom spot already good luck everyone.

@oliwc12 hey sorry but what CD are you on? I'm on 21, been doing the same as you just bd every possible moment, we've done eberyt we can this month so 🤞

@fizzyheart trying to conceive number 3 as well, I have two daughters 9 and 21 months. How old are your other two?

I'm also due a period around the 27th so will test on new years day i reckon to get a good strong negative/positive

@ChampooPapi my other children are 13 and 10, so there will be quite a big age gap. Wishing you lots of luck.

@fizzyheart big gaps are the best! Mine are 8 years apart and it's been brilliant. I'm only going for a third before this current one turns 2 because I'll be 33 next year and I want them all to be in primary school by the time I'm 40, work wise and life wise

Can I join in? TTC#1 Cycle 5. AF due 25th December. I hate that I've already planned how I'm going to tell everyone over Christmas dinner!

Good luck everyone.

@mondaynitelive haha, love it. Fingers crossed for you x

@ChampooPapi Today is CD17 for me. Exactly, I feel like there is nothing more that I could have done so fx 🤞🏼🎅🏼
