@mumofboys17 Glad DS is home! Must have been a mental time, hope you can all get some rest!

@Quiffy Thank you x as am I!! We’ve been co-sleeping in a small hospital bed since last Friday so I was SO happy to be back in my king size bed last night!! It’s been hell on earth and been really scary.. DH had to go away with work Sunday-Wednesday as well so it was maximum stress!
Needless to say DH and I had a much needed reunion last night (in the spare room might I add as DS1 is in our bed 😳😂) so I think we’re getting back on track for this cycle.
Lots of new names on here! Need to catch up haha, hope everyone is doing OK?
Coming back to the thread with positive vibes only!!! C’mon you BFP’s!! ✨✨✨

@Mumofboys17 ahhh fingers crossed for this cycle - you deserve that BFP after all that stress!

Evening ladies. Just catching up over the last couple days as been so so busy at work and passing out so tired in the evening. So glad I am off work as of tomorrow as I wouldn't even have the energy to DTD evenings at the moment.

Sorry to hear AF has reared head for most of us now. Really hoping us mad lot can get our BFPs in jan.

@Mumofboys17 glad DS is out of hospital and all okay. Good luck getting back on track. I am also CD8 so we are cycle buddies

Good morning everyone

Welcome back @Mumofboys17 I hope your ds is much better!!!

Well I’m currently on cycle day seven and just used my clear blue digital advanced ovulation stick and as expected had a blank circle, I’m actually quite excited to use it as it works really well last month. I’m definitely going to take the more relaxed approach this month as I know stress plays a big factor.

I’ve woken up feeling a bit under the weather as yesterday at work I felt funny and today and I’m bunged up but that’s it 🤷‍♀️ I was going to go out this evening for a few Christmas drinks but I think I won’t bother as I will probably end up making myself more ill and then ruining the whole of Christmas!

Apparently I’m due to ovulate around the 27th of December, I am working then but hopefully will be able to fit it in the evenings. Managed to do the deed last night, which means I can’t do it tonight so if their partner tries it on then I’m stuffed, hopefully he won’t.

Hope everyone is okay really hope we get some BFPS soon ✨🎄🎄🎄

Good morning ladies x how are we all? x
Last day at work before Christmas for me today and not working till New Year, so happy days!
CD12 today in FW and ovulation predicted for Monday. Used opk this morning and still low so the app prediction is probably right x

Morning everyone!

Last day of work for me before Christmas holidays. Not sure how I'm going to get everything done though (ended up working to 10pm last night and went straight to bed). Cd12 and due to ovulate tomorrow. Didnt think it would happen but started feeling nauseated yesterday and boobs were sore, starting to realise this is a OV symptom for me. Opk was went to high last night and I'll see what today's test says aroun 10pm.

@Katie1109 Happy last day at work!

@Sunflower2019 Hope you're not coming down with a cold. Although could be a good excuse to avoid DTD tonight!

@Symptomspotter86 Hear you on that! Feels too busy for DTD at the moment. We're on for tonight but I doubt there's going to much gymnastics haha.

@Blondeandbroody Did you test this morning? Any lines?

@Quiffy hey lovely yeah tested this morning and BFN. must've been imagining the line yesterday. I've finally accepted that I'm just going to have to wait for my first AF after the pill before I can feasibly get a positive! Waiting game now for me and I'm trying to just forget about it and enjoy Christmas and all that jazz xx

Well my LH is starting to climb. Premom still showing as low at 0.33 but last cycle I had this level day before peak, so I will assume for now the same will happen this cycle. Taking that into account my O day would be Sunday so lots of DTD over the weekend x

@Blondeandbroody Sorry :( bodies are just cruel. If you're looking for vitamins, when I researched Angus castus for improving your luteal phase, I also saw people using it bring on AF after using the pill. Might be worth a look x

@Katie1109 Glad LH starting to climb! Think I'm looking at Sunday OV now as no peak today, but is getting higher.

Managed to get everything done and can now relax for christmas hopefully! Hope some of you are getting some time off for Christmas too

I feel so behind all you guys! My period is STILL not here ... 11/12 days late now????? I don't get it 😩 I just want to start next month now ... So frustrating
Don't see the point in testing again as even first response was negative this week

How annoying @Ktn35 I'd maybe phone your GP if it's still not here on Monday. I know they say if you skip 3 periods you should see your GP but if it's NEVER happened before I'd be going after one! (I am 37 though so I don't have time to wait now lol)

@ange211 I am 37 too! I got pregnant almost by accident two years ago so have never really put this kind of focus on it all before ... I wonder if thinking about it too hard has made it late?! Possible?!

Agree with @Ange211 could be worth phoning gp (although might be mayhem at this time of year). Must be really frustrating @Ktn35 :(

I’ve woke up feeling absolutely pants. Think it’s a mix of ovulation/cold/flare up of a chronic illness. Id happily go back back to bed but lots to do. At least DH has said he’ll do the full house clean! Opk sticks nearly peak so think it will happen sometime today or tomorrow. Going to a pantomime at 2pm so I’m sure all the kids will have my ovaries bursting and help the process along haha.

How’s everyone doing?

@Quiffy I did read about that Angus Castus stuff and thought about giving it a go if AF doesn't show this week cause I just want to get started!!!

@ktn35 stress can make you late but it's never happened to me despite being fairly stressed at different periods in my life! Have you skipped af before?

Morning ladies x how are we all?
@Quiffy hi there cycle buddy, well I’ve got my peak today, so ovulation probably tomorrow x DTD twice yesterday 🙈 so too tired for this morning, but it’s only 2pm so I’m sure we can find some time today too x Did you have your peak today? x

Just realised I said good morning 😂 good afternoon rather ladies x
I attach my LH results, in case someone finds in handy x I had my peak late morning/early afternoon and it has now gone down to high x

@Katie1109 yay on peak! I’m not sure on mine. My line hasn’t gone above high and keeps going back to low.not sure if it’s still to come or I missed it. My temp did drop this morning so maybe missed. Just going to dtd tonight and tomorrow and hope for the best. Not taking any opks with me so if it’s not our month it’s not our month.

@Quiffy my OPK’s were a bit like that last cycle, couldn’t really decide if I had or hadn’t ovulated or if I’d peaked or not. I am still using the strips this month just to give me an idea, but I’m not being so regimented about it. Could be due to all the stress of having a poorly toddler but I do feel like taking a step back! Especially after AF showed up a week early last cycle my apps are now all over the place 😬 We’re just DTD every other night, and may just leave it at that 🤞🏻

@mumofboys17 defo getting fed up with them. Looking forward to not taking them on holiday tomorrow and just going by temp. If it happens it happens this month.

How’s your toddler getting on?

I'm in 2 minds i had decided to try the smep method this month but I'm not sure if it's too much pressure especially with my delicate emotional state just now. Might just take a couple of months DTD when we feel like it and try to focus on booking a holiday or moving house (hopefully!) Only thing is at 37 & wanting another 2 I've not a lot of time on my side!

morning ladies
i finally have a strong opks on them cheap one so in the app is say 138 would you guys say that the top of peak ? apps said should ovulated yesterday
