24th June - 4th July Testing Buddies

[Littlebee1990]

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!

@littlebee - 2nd July

I had a rest yesterday but am theoretically 2dpo and will be jumping on him shortly. I feel anxious if I don't carry on because one month I saw someone on the exact timeline as me and she swears she DTD and conceived 3 days later than we thought!

Minefield.

When it is old semen from brewing inside him it is thicker but when he doesn't have a day off it stays quite thin and slippery matter how long it is in me.

@Littlebee1990 Fair play to you, you deserve an early night and lots of sleep tonight 😂

I think we have one more try tonight thanks to the static smiley on my ovulation year yesterday but I’m so tired already 😴

Feels like I’m slightly torturing myself but I’ve been reading reviews on good books to get during pregnancy, there are so many out there. I’ve only read one book (What to expect before you’re expecting) so far and trying not to let DH in on me being a bit crazy and needing ALL of the information possible. Such a contrast to my best friend who point blank refused to read any books during pregnancy!

@Littlebee1990 you 100% deserve your bfp this month! Got my fingers crossed for you. If I don’t get mine I’ll have to take your approach next month!

@Littlebee1990 you definitely deserve the rest! We only managed every other day but that is better than last month. I also did the legs up thing this time! Now 4 dpo and no symptoms yet!

Next month I’m going to get some ovulation tests so I have a more definite idea of timings.

@Littlebee1990 yeah you definitely need a rest after all that DTD!!! I don't know how you have it in you!

@mrswilso i like the sound of meeting...but i know all the ins and outs of everyones cervix (sperm n all 😂) so im not so sure 😂😂😂

@Nottherealslimshady sperm ponds 😂😂😂😂 that is brilliant!!! That is what we need to rename our group 'sperm pond 2020' 🤣⛲️

@Littlebee1990 i hereby appoint you the name 'pillow legs' and thanks so much for creating a banging group (no pun intended 😉!!)

@motherofdinosau cant imagine there would be much eye contact at a sperm pond mums meetup 🤣

Once this thread is at 1000 then the next thread or for any one who may be on the next thread it is soo going to be titled July Sperm Pond 🤣

@Littlebee1990 how did you get on last night? I agree it is tiring! 🙈 we did it four times during ovulation and that was plenty for me 😂😂 but you're a trooper!! Here's hoping for your BFP!

@mrswilso CM types and faces!! 😂😂😂

Sperm pond 🙈🙈🙈

I'm now 12DPO and desperate to test!! But going to officially wait until Monday/Tuesday as I'd then be officially late. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Random question ladies.... but do they say that the most likely day to implant is DPO9?
Sooooo @Littlebee1990 did you have a night off last night?🙉

@Chlo2701 they say anywhere between 6-10 days but day 9 is the most common...how they know that is baffling lol!

How many dpo are you now? Im 10dpo today

Sperm pond 🙈😂😂

@motherofdinosau I'm 9dpo today. Woke up with a headache yesterday morning & it didn't piss off until quite late last night, so just felt rubbish all day yesterday. I'm thinking I'm out though as had my usual pre AF spot come up on my face last night🤦‍♀️ just trying to keep my fingers crossed that I'd implant today but just really not feeling hopeful. How are you feeling?

@Chlo2701 I'm the same, feeling a bit negative and not very hopeful today. I don't think we DTD enough with DHs work stuff going on. I keep telling myself that it's fine if I'm not pregnant, it's another month to save up, lose a bit more weight (have lost almost a stone in lockdown and no longer overweight!) etc but deep down I know I'm gonna be quite gutted if AF shows or I see a negative test!

I can confirm I had a night off! Slept terrible though and I am a miserable cowbag today, no idea why but I literally have the hump with the world, can’t shift it either!

Hope everyone else is ok x

@Littlebee1990 Do you usually get in a mood near AF ? I do everytime, and everytime I have no idea why I'm so pissed off then it starts and I'm like ohhh

I bought three tests today, I'm gonna take one in the morning just get it out of my head 😂

@Nottherealslimshady I’m only 3DPO so definitely not AF and no tbh I don’t normally get aggy until end of period. I’ve literally just burst in to tears for no reason at all and I’m not an emotional person and when my boyfriend asked what’s wrong the only reason I can pin point it because I’m a stone heavier than I want to be and I feel gross.. so pathetic and something that would never usually bother me. If AF does show in a few weeks I’m getting drunk.

@littlebee1990 maybe just the emotional toll of TTC?
Definitely have a drink if AF turns up, I've got a can of strawberry and lime koppaberg I'm eyeing up (also on a diet so that's my limit) but really hope you cant have a drink for a long time!

Eek @Nottherealslimshady let us know how it goes!

My IC tests just arrived and I've shoved them in a drawer, no idea how many DPO I am as I ran out of OPKs before I got a positive but based on CM i think its 6 or 7. Started having AF like cramps now though

Hi everyone 👋

Sorry just caught up on all the posts - how’s everyone feeling?

@Littlebee1990 sounds like you had a very busy TTC week 😉 Wouldn’t be surprising if you were exhausted though! I find TTC takes it out of you both physically and emotionally.

Goodluck @Nottherealslimshady!

I’m losing the battle not to test and am thinking of testing on Friday even though I think I’ll only be 10 DPO 😬 not having many symptoms except pretty sore and hard boobs that I sometimes get before my period but has been sore almost since ovulation this time.

Can’t wait to hear/see everyone’s tests results! Goodluck and positive vibes to everyone!

So confused.

Just had a lunchtime quickie for kicks and after Glow predicted ov on Sunday....having had 2 days of no CM just had loads of EW.

What the heck?

@Flittingabout hello, it’s normal to start having ewcm about 5 days before ov. So get bd!

@flittingabout sounds like ovulation is now rather than when your app said! Good job you had a quickly ☺

I'm 1dpo today, dtd twice yesterday and 2 other times in fw, hope that's enough. Must say the grapefruit really did help with ewcm, I noticed I had MUCH more than last 2 cycles.

Looking forward to seeing some BFPs soon!

Xx

Thanks :) its still supposedly super early but I've had really strong symptoms since a few days after ovulation so I'm thinking maybe I ovulated earlier than I thought as I've only just started charting it and kinda guessed when my last period started so I could have been a couple of days off (totally clutching at straws!). If it's a negative this month then I'm getting OPKs for next month.

Hope everyone's having a good day :)
