Hi all ,

I want some company .... currently in my 10 month of TTC after a miscarriage last March at 14 weeks

Due to ovulate around the 10th so my TWW will start around the 11th

Anyone else in the same boat ? Let's keep each other company

Ps I need support not to test early as drove myself mad last month !

Xxx

@LRHR ☺️ that's a lovely attitude. I wish I was this calm 🙃
So your story is very similar to mine. How old are you?

I am now in my fertile window according to ovia. How about you guys? We usually have sex every day and I thought maybe it's too often... So this cycle I decided we should do only every other day. We did BD two days ago but last night my husband clearly wasn't up for it. Now I am devastated! Omg! Even though I wanted this way! And now I am worried that I missed a chance. My ovulation sticks still super negative though..

LRHR · 03/03/2020 09:01

@Adrianoska I'm 29 nearly 30, I'm really tall and a healthy weight (this shouldn't matter but apparently improves your chances) and I attend slimming world which I will
Continue throughout pregnancy (hopefully) I also take pregnacare prenatal. I don't track ovulation other than through an app.
My advice and Honestly I totally get where you are coming from but you need to relax and try not to even mention ovulation to your partner because it will start to P him off and stress him and then it will make you both tense. It's so so hard and you need to keep it enjoyable not a military operation.
I was abit baby crazy last month and my husband told me he was feeling abit used and like I only wanted to have sex to have a baby and not because we love each other.
Sometimes we have to take a breath and think about it from hubby's point of view too.
We are all in the same boat and please please don't think I'm judging you I'm just trying to give you an outsider who's in the same situation my opinion ❤️❤️❤️ xxx

Donnat89 · 03/03/2020 09:45

@LRHR I agree , I've said before I think we forget our partners feel the stress too . I'm feeling more chilled about things this month and already feel better about it .

I know I will get a BFP it's just a matter of time and it will happen when it is meant to , I drove myself crazy last few months about it but it isn't healthy and also didn't help either .

I am already blessed with 2 healthy children and I am greatful for that but I do want a baby with my partner and we are both ready but we do have to be patient I know we will get our chance .

I am now in my fertile window so I'm just keeping positive ! Xx

Girls, you are totally right! I drove myself to oblivion through this baby making stress...
Thank you 💕🙏
My husband has a very high sex drive so it doesn't seem to bother him too much, but it's almost like we have less sex around fertile window just because I want it so much? Is that possible?
Yes! You are correct. I need to chill a bit.... Easier said than done. I would not be in such a rush if I knew that it will happen for certain... I just want to know we can have a baby together.

Our story is very very unusual, and very beautiful at the same time, I swear the baby is what we need to complete it.

Much love to you, my dears 💕

LRHR · 03/03/2020 12:06

@Adrianoska @Donnat89
It's so nice we're all very similar and tomorrow I may be totally baby mental and feel completely different and stressed, it's human nature.

Wishing us all the very best this month xxx

LexieBB · 03/03/2020 21:17

Hey ladies!

This thread really helped keep me sane in february, so thank you all again.

I’ll be watching this thread throughout the month to see all the new bfps! Best of luck to everyone for those Christmas babies! 💕

LRHR · 04/03/2020 06:20

@LexieBB it would be really nice if you could keep us updated 😊 so happy for you xx

Adrianoska · 04/03/2020 08:02

@LexieBB 😘💕

Juno231 · 04/03/2020 08:54

Gah so OH is ill now and declined DTD last night because of it. Then we had a bit of a spat this morning which coupled with him feeling ill probably means no DTD tonight either... I'm getting worried about the effort put in during this FW!

Juno231 · 04/03/2020 09:20

Oops I take it back - I forgot about make up DTD 😁

LRHR · 04/03/2020 09:53

@Juno231 hahaha this made me chuckle 🤭
I've realised last month I missed my FW and was late trying so this month it started last night up until Ovulation Sunday so hopefully it's there and waiting xxx

Adrianoska · 04/03/2020 10:12

@Juno231 😂😂😂
Brilliant posts!

I had opk peak last night and we did what's need to be done at 2am. And I am hoping for some more tonight 😁

Omg I hope it will work this month..
🙄❤️

Adrianoska · 04/03/2020 10:14

@LRHR I think I was missing my most fertile days during my first two months of TTC... but last month I certainly nailed it and still nothing 😭
I hope this month I will get BFP... I really want it so much 😔❤️

Juno231 · 04/03/2020 11:18

Glad I could entertain you girls 😁

@Adrianoska that's quick! I thought you'd be ovulating this Saturday with me as our AF started on the same day. Fingers crossed this egg sticks!

@LRHR happy jiggy time to you!

LexieBB · 04/03/2020 13:33

@Adrianoska @LRHR I will definitely report back. First scan is scheduled for March 26! But I’m way too paranoid to wait that long for a doctor so booked early check up with my regular gyn for bloodwork for tomorrow. ☺️

@juno321 I loved that update. Get it, girl. 😂

Adrianoska · 04/03/2020 14:03

@Juno231 i know! I was not expecting it. That's what I mean... If I was going solely by my apps then I was missing my ovulation day actually. Big time
Looks like my cycle has shortened to 25 days recently. That means I ovulate on 11cd and my opk was certainly positive last night. But really negative until yesterday morning. And now they are going paler already.
But we did BD Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday and hopefully tonight. We will see... I used the Conceive Plus lube last night, too.
Fingers crossed for you Juno!
❤️

LRHR · 04/03/2020 18:19

@Adrianoska do you track CM? Xxx

Sammyclaire22 · 04/03/2020 19:45

Hi all just thought I'd touch base... still bleeding but looking ahead to the next month. Started my coenz q10 etc again yesterday as it seemed it work last month. No idea when my fertile window will be but it's usually about cd11 so not that far away really!
Good luck to all those currently at it like March rabbits! Daffodil

Adrianoska · 04/03/2020 21:52

@LRHR perhaps tracking is not the word I would use... I just look at it from time to time 😂 it's not very consistent.
And yes, durin my fertile period I have that more egg white like cm. But that's all I know..

Xx

Juno231 · 05/03/2020 07:08

@Adrianoska I'm the same as you when it comes to CM... Never quite managed to get the hang of it but I also think that's because it seems a bit random!

Juno231 · 05/03/2020 07:22

Soz for spamming but I forgot to mention my OPKs lol. This is the first cycle I've been using them but decided to only start during my FW as I thought it would be a waste during my first cycle week. However on Monday the line was medium strength for lack of a better description - and since then the line has been much weaker. Is it normal for it to fluctuate at all or does it mean actually I may already have ovulated and I caught the tail end of it when I tested on Monday?

LRHR · 05/03/2020 07:58

@Adrianoska @Juno231 Phew I'm glad you've said the same cause I literally haven't got a clue 😂 I do notice the egg white cm but not really much else xxx

Adrianoska · 05/03/2020 08:27

@Juno231 what CD are you on?
Yeah... It is possible you got the end of ovulation? Or the higher hormone levels that are after period.
But I swear... I never knew I ovulate on 10th or 11th day until I used opks last month. This month I started testing on day 5. But it is also possible you will get your peak much later on? How long is your cycle?
X

Adrianoska · 05/03/2020 08:29

@Juno231 and my lines fluctuate a bit through the cycle but it is pretty obvious when suddenly it goes boom! So keep testing 😊

Juno231 · 05/03/2020 08:36

@Adrianoska last cycle I ovulated on CD13 and today I'm on CD12 so should hotshot get a positive OPK today? My cycle dropped by 2-3 days last time though with an early AF so god knows what's going on.

I'll let you know how I get on and I'll try not to jump to conclusions like the short cycle being a sign of peri menopause or that this is how I find out that I don't always ovulate!
