@paintfairy I also put my temps into flo and it says the same as Fem

paintfairy · 16/02/2020 18:42

@whatsthecraic91 well I'm freaking about the same thing this month. Lol. I can't even get a proper temp because I'm too stressed to sleep.

Adrianoska · 16/02/2020 18:46

@MissTTC2020, now i remember, it is only your second TTC cycle, omg... How lucky!
Please tell us your secret 😁😂

Adrianoska · 16/02/2020 18:48

Hi everyone. Congrats on the BFPs. I'm on CD27 but don't think we DTD at the right time so not hopeful. I've got AF type cramps but no other signs or symptoms. Going to view a lovely looking house on Wednesday so may test Weds if AF hasn't reared her unwelcome head by then. How's everyone else doing?

Heypij · 17/02/2020 02:30

A massive congratulations to @Needallthesleep and @MissTTC2020! That’s brilliant news Smile

Getting the usual AF symptoms (spotting, cramps) so I’m almost certainly out for February. Onwards to March. Felt a little sad on the weekend (took a test Sunday morning - BFN) but feeling pretty content about it now.

Sending luck to everyone who are waiting to find out - bring on the BFPs!

MissTTC2020 · 17/02/2020 06:27

Thank you everyone for the congratulations!

I had/have absolutely no symptoms except how hot I woke up yesterday morning but have no idea if that's a symptom or not!

Other than that I don't feel any different! @whatsthecraic91 so it can happen with no symptoms 😊

I was absolutely gutted to get a BFN on Thursday (8DPO) and so to everyone who said don't give up hope and leave it a good few days, thank you!

Diet/health wise I have given up alcohol and coffee. No idea if this has helped with a speedy conception but I did it to feel better in myself, which I do :)

And then DTD was very regular this month too...I had 9 days of that witchey flashey face on CBD before I finally got the solid static so we DTD all of those 9 days (thinking it would be 2 or 3 😂) AND for the 2 days of static smiley.

Anyone testing today? 🤞

Needallthesleep · 17/02/2020 06:39

Thank you all.

And I did the exact opposite to @missTTC2020. I only DTD once, drank coffee and alcohol like a fish, and thought I was definitely out this month. Very odd!

calimommy · 17/02/2020 06:41

@Needallthesleep 😜💀 all of my babies have been a bit pickled at the start... and then because no one ever slept there is always buckets of caffeine.

whatsthecraic91 · 17/02/2020 07:18

This cycle is pissing me off!!!! I had 3 abnormal temps so I decided to unmark them abnormal and look what's happened! If this is right I am defo out this cycle as we didn't DTD for a week! CD16 would have been too early and then we didn't again until CD23 😐

paintfairy · 17/02/2020 07:24

@whatsthecraic91 when did you think it was?

I'm having issues too. I now don't know if I belong on this bus or the March bus?

App predicted 29th feb for AF. That's about right and I'm fairly regular. Peak opk early wed morning. Despite erratic temps (can't sleep through!), apps then said I ovulated wed, bringing AF to 28th feb. I also felt uncomfortable that night and DTD wasn't great. Lol. I often spot though (handy for confirmation) but didn't.

Fast forward to last night- spotting! So wtf? Did I ovulate then? In which case - I'm on the wrong bus! 🤣
Still didn't sleep but temp was a tiny bit lower than yesterday. Can't really think they are that reliable though.

whatsthecraic91 · 17/02/2020 07:39

@paintfairy I have no idea I usually have EWCM and I didn't over the weekend! I rarely have a long cycle too so it makes me think it was early! I should be 12DPO today and due Wednesday but now I'm just 4DPO and due 28th!!! So annoying! Think I'll test Wednesday anyway just to see but I was originally planning on testing this morning but as soon as seen that I was like NOPE 👎🏼

Sounds strange, but as long as you DTD that night should you not be covered? If you are regular just take it as AF is coming the 28th - a day shouldn't make too much of a difference? So you are 4DPO too? We can keep each other sane but I don't think there's much hope for that we have prob both lost it already 😂

paintfairy · 17/02/2020 07:43

@whatsthecraic91 I'm either 5dpo today or 1dpo. 🤣 I literally have no idea. 🙄

The temps you took out might not be wrong though? Maybe temping is a bad idea. Lol. It's only confusing me this month. But then the OPK has thrown me too!

whatsthecraic91 · 17/02/2020 07:45

@paintfairy I took them out because I was in Kraków for the weekend and I had a lot of alcohol and bad sleep & they were very high so I dunno - will see if AF turns up this week!

Hatepickinganame · 17/02/2020 07:58

@needallthesleep ah i was considering cutting down my caffeine intake but now i might just see what happens this month 😊

My app is doing odd things this cycle, it was giving me a 10 day fertile window and now its only 6, 4 days before predicted ov and two days after, could this be because it has more data now and is more accurate? In other news, was looking at photos of my friends baby last night and said to oh lets make one of those and he said theres no point trying til next week! He actually remembered my predicted ov dates from my app 😊 small things hey 😂

whatsthecraic91 · 17/02/2020 08:22

@Hatepickinganame everyone apps seem to be messed up this month!! So strange!

Anon87 · 17/02/2020 08:56

My app is now confirming ov happened with my temp rise this morning. I'm still fascinated with all this side of it. Not a clue, but fascinated 😄

paintfairy · 17/02/2020 09:07

@Anon87 my analyst mind is now going crazy with it. Because my temp is lower than yesterday which makes no sense if what I has was ovulation spotting.

Interesting yes. But it causes me constant stress trying to work it out! 🤣 Where's the 'off' switch?

Anon87 · 17/02/2020 09:26

@paintfairy Because it wants it every 4 hours till returns to high or low and I've just got another peak at 100 it's now saying I've not ovulated yet 😆😆

You didn't see people in the little house on the prairie doing this. We don't NEED it. Insightful? YES, headfuck? YES. It does also ruin the natural element of sex.
If I had a partner at any chapter in my life that scheduled me in for sexy times I can guarantee I wouldn't have stuck around and that's traits we could all fall into very easily here.

Go and have some fun ladies, no matter what they may be xx

paintfairy · 17/02/2020 09:50

@anon87 We ended up DTD Saturday. Unscheduled. It was completely different to the other forced days. So I think next month certainly needs to be more relaxed. DH is getting annoyed. Said he's not a performing monkey. 🤣

You've got another peak OPK ? Bizarre. Mine returns to low very fast. Here's mine. Although if i ovulated yesterday like I now think, it makes it all irrelevant! 🙄

Hatepickinganame · 17/02/2020 10:21

@paintfairy lol at the performing monkey comment! Thats one of my fears with actively trying, i dont want dtd to become a thing we have to do 🙄

Hatepickinganame · 17/02/2020 10:23
