New thread for those who were on the May/June thread and didn’t get a BFP, think we’re up to 14 people with a BFP 😍

Anyone who will be testing on above dates welcome, I’ll create a list of usernames and testing date and we will then support each other through the TWW, symptom spotting brain ache and AF arriving or celebrating a BFP. Great if everyone could give a little info about them too!

I’m 30, boyfriend is 27. TTC #1 Cycle 3. Tried SMEP last month and using OPK’s. Not even a hint of pregnancy yet for me but hoping for some baby dust my way this month!

@Littlebee1990 @HellloBambinos @mrswilso and weird!! Maybe it’s just me but until I started ttc I’d never given much thought to CM at all! Probably something we as women should know 🤔😂

HellloBambinos · 15/06/2020 19:10

Thanks girls!

@BookishEm nor me! I've had an implant for so long though and other than a few super long ones I never had periods, so don't even know if I had a cycle! I'm learning so much about my body 😂

@littlebee1990 @helllobambinos @bookishem
I always had heavy creamy CM when I was on the pill - it had something to do with how the pill works, making the CM more inhospitable for wee swimmers. I've taken it as a more positive sign this month that I've definitely had more clear, wet, fertile-looking CM in my fertile window.
Google has some horrendous but highly informative images if you dare search 🤣 although, it's not always a good idea cos what I class as "my EWCM" is nothing like some of the examples online 😳

Littlebee1990 · 15/06/2020 19:23

Thank you all ladies! Never did I think I’d be spending my Monday evenings discussing CM with lovely strangers 😀

Haha! I bloody love this thread 😍 thanks @littlebee1990 for giving us a safe place to discuss CM on a Monday night with lovely strangers 😂

Dinosaurus86 · 15/06/2020 20:24

Haha! I’m worrying because CM has totally disappeared too! Had way more symptoms last month, but that didn’t work out so who knows!

RoEP2018 · 15/06/2020 20:28

We've just DTD (sorry 😂) but I had ovulation pain about an hour ago. Was that one wasted? Do you think the swimmers will catch my egg? 🤣🤣🤣

Hope you're all well. So relieved to be in the TWW. It's taken over my life this week!!

MyGossip · 15/06/2020 20:59

@HellloBambinos that's odd as mine is similar! I've been adding it to my apps in the hope that it means something.

@BookishEm @PinkRoses20 good luck to you both! It's a horrible wait! 🙈🙈

@dogmam is this the first test that it has appeared dark/er? Keep testing until it gets darker than the actual test line!

@Dinosaurus86 ive had literally zero symptoms other than a little CM and feeling like I've got a UTI when I need to pee 🤷🏼‍♀️ no cramps or backache, nothing.

@RoEP2018 here's hoping!? Good luck!

Nottherealslimshady · 15/06/2020 21:05

EWCM is the only one I'm able to identify. I've just got creamy then maybe two days in the middle of EWCM I guess that makes it easier!
My boobs are killing me today, they feel massive and the underside is really tender. They're a bit veiny too. I'm on a diet atm so my boobs should be getting smaller, I'm trying and failing not to let it get my hopes up

Nottherealslimshady · 15/06/2020 21:07

@RoEP2018 I'd say it's one caught more than anything! They should be bumping into eachother on their journeys 🤣

Nottherealslimshady · 15/06/2020 21:07

Does anyone else feel a little weird thinking that theres 5 days worth of sperm swimming around up there? 😂

MyGossip · 15/06/2020 21:12

@Nottherealslimshady I didn't until now.. 🙈🙈😂😂 imagine how much after a few days of DTD

Wyewaving · 15/06/2020 21:15

Ladies, my Clearblue ovulation testing kit came today and I’ve just tried it and got a static smiley face.

Have I used it too late in the day for it to be accurate? It had probably been about four hours since I’d last used the loo (sorry for the TMI). Also, would it be static today if I had ovulated yesterday?

All the apps I’ve been using have me down as already ovulating, only the Clearblue website has me predicted to ovulate tomorrow. Ovia and Glow are the nearest and think I ovulated yesterday 🤔

motherofdinosau · 15/06/2020 21:45

@RoEP2018 you that wait took over?! This one is soooo long...approx 93 days in tww i think 😂
Have everything crossed the swimmers bump into your egg in a narrow alley like bumper cars 🤣🤣🤣

motherofdinosau · 15/06/2020 21:48

@Nottherealslimshady i was thinking this the other day...must be like fish on the surface of a lake all thrashing around in there 🤣

SVC11 · 15/06/2020 21:51

@Nottherealslimshady omg yes. They're so gross haha! I made my dh watch a video about what is happening to me and it is just bllleerrgghh

Nottherealslimshady · 15/06/2020 22:09

@motherofdinosau I crown you the queen of metaphors! 🤣🤣

Littlebee1990 · 15/06/2020 22:11

@Wyewaving I would go by the OPK and not the apps!

Just noticed this fancy little feature on the fermometer app (you can tell I’m new to this. I’m like a annoying kid in a sweet shop). Now horrified thinking of 9 days of DTD (one of those days twice) all swimming up inside me.. come on spermies, stick!! Surprised to see the % so low the day after ovulation

@motherofdinosau 🤣🤣 All I can vision is fishies thrashing around inside my ovaries. Laughing so much

Lots to catch up on for me Grin

Hope you're all still doing ok? All this talk of CM and sperm swimming around up there is making me lol. I can't believe how often some of you manage to DTD. Im exhausted just reading about it.

Still no peak for me this FW feels so long. God help me with the 2ww

@fran2020 did you ring to change your blood test date? Im not sure it'll make much difference unless progesterone had already started to drop. I think too early is worse. Really hoping this is your month Xx

Wyewaving · 15/06/2020 22:36

@Littlebee1990 Oh blimey, guess that means another late night for me tonight then 😂

I know what you all mean about how long sperm stays inside you, so weird to think about!

Fran2020 · 15/06/2020 22:41

@Whilstwewait yeah it's now on Friday which is CD19. I got peak on CD11 so I'm guessing I probably ovulated on CD12 so the test is 7 days later. Fingers crossed it's all ok! Having it's Monday seemed too late for me but it's confusing. Some places say 7 days after ovulation and others say 7 days before AF! Which isn't necessarily the same day! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Fran2020 · 15/06/2020 23:18

@Whilstwewait Thank you, I hope it's your month too! Xx

holb54 · 16/06/2020 00:21

Thanks girls for giving me such a laugh tonight reading these posts 😂😂
