@Happyhappy37 that made me smile xx

Loladoodle · 23/06/2020 19:04

@LT103 hope you got sorted sounds like a grim day for you!

LT103 · 23/06/2020 20:02

@loladoodle not sorted yet but oh managed to get into loft and get bucket down at least and it’s to be dry for next day or so so hopefully will get someone to check it tomorrow. Managed to squeeze in dtd too. That’s cd 8,9,10 and 11 so far but still no sign of ovulation on sticks or cm. think we’ll have a day off tomorrow! Getting impatient with the opk sticks but I know it’s just too early haha

Loladoodle · 23/06/2020 20:20

@LT103 dedication! Dtd on a day like that! 👍 I was the same no pos opk until cd13 I was getting impatient as well. Nothing wrong with a day off!

So after all that dh asked if I wanted to dtd again tonight so we did 😃😃😃 so thats now cd9,10,12,13,14 with ov today on 14 I think. Really happy with that! Going to do progesterone from 3dpo as well to extend my luteal phase so can't do much more than that! Next month if this doesn't work I'm switching to decaf tea as I drink way too much and also start royal jelly and bee propolis. Feel like it's good to try something new each month!

Happyhappy37 · 23/06/2020 21:08

@lucieloos aaawww so glad your hubby did a 360. You must feel so relieved. 🤞🏾 Crossed for you both. No harm in trying something new each month.
Sending you lots of positive energy 🙏🏽

Happyhappy37 · 23/06/2020 21:10

@LT103 pure commitment. You ladies on this thread are worst than bunny rabbits 😂😂. Good luck to you

Loladoodle · 23/06/2020 21:11

@lucieloos yay! You def have it covered hope it’s your lucky month 🍀 what does royal jelly and bee what’sit do?

Loladoodle · 23/06/2020 21:12

I’m having my well earned break from dtd! Taking at least a week off now 😂

OP posts:
LT103 · 23/06/2020 21:14

@lucieloosfingwrs crossed for you. Definitely given it your best shot!!
I feel like I’m wishing away all my days....waiting for af not to come, waiting for af to finish, now I’m waiting on positive opk 🤦🏻‍♀️ I think if nothing happens then next not h I need to take the more relaxed approach.

lucieloos · 23/06/2020 21:16

@Loladoodle they boost fertility, help regulate hormones and improve egg quality. I really believe in the power of bees and honey for medicinal purposes. It heals all sorts of things so think it's a good one to try.

We are definitely taking a well earned break now too!

Happyhappy37 · 23/06/2020 21:18

Do anyone know if we get a lh surge before AF? I know too much if any about this LH business. Is it only at fertile time we get the surge?
Since I started using these opks, I randomly test throughout my cycle.

Happyhappy37 · 23/06/2020 21:19

Does
I don't know
Bloody hell 🙈

Loladoodle · 23/06/2020 21:22

Have you got a pos opk @happy? Perhaps a preggo test would be more suffice 🤭

OP posts:
Loladoodle · 23/06/2020 21:23

Enjoy the relaxation @lucieloos I’m looking forward to reading and tv now 🤣🤣 dp is delighted 🙄😬

OP posts:
lucieloos · 23/06/2020 21:26

Ohhh is it positive @Happyhappy37 ?

@Loladoodle enjoy your relaxation too sounds heavenly 🤣

M4v3r1ck · 23/06/2020 21:26

Evening ladies and welcome to the newcomers! 😃😃😃

@Happyhappy37 omfg 🤣🤣🤣 Hope he's ok now?! 🙊

Sorry to those of you having a rough time! This thread always makes me smile when Dr Google is being negative. 😃 Was chatting to DH about the pressure and he was saying that he loves all the extra DTD, but there is a weird 'pressure' to it. The good thing is that sperm sticks around for a couple of days, so even if you don't go 100% during the fertile window, you still have a good chance! 😃 The main thing is not to get too stressed (hard I know) and enjoy it and want to do it! 😘

Booo to BFNs and crappy AFs! That's the witch officially pissed off for me now, so starting cycle 2! Think there's a few of us synced ladies now! So 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 for some BFPs from these golden ovaries! 😍😍😍

M4v3r1ck · 23/06/2020 21:29

Ps. Did someone say there's a 1k comment limit on threads?! Do we need a new one already! 🤣

lucieloos · 23/06/2020 21:35

@Loladoodle and @lucieloos I took one and it looks almost positive, put in the app and it came up saying high 🤷🏾. I don't have hpt.
TMI alert

I had brownish/pinkish slimey cm, this am , then nothing all day and this evening I had it again. It only comes on toilet paper. Who bloody knows what going on. 😄
I don't plan on buying hpt until I missed a period.

Happyhappy37 · 23/06/2020 22:11

@M4v3r1ck he's okay 🙈😂

lucieloos · 23/06/2020 22:26

@Happyhappy37 sounds promising could be implantation🤞

selina37 · 23/06/2020 22:27

Hey girlies, welcome newbies!

Hope everyone is doing ok, wherever we all are in our cycles 🙂

I'm hoping for a positive opk tomorrow. Had one in the early afternoon last cycle on day 8!! Day 8 has come and gone today so hoping for positive tomorrow; day 9 is pretty standard for me with ovulation on day 10 (24 days cycles or thereabouts).

Was really stressed on Monday though and think that's going to set me back. 🤔 apparently your body favours stress hormones over fertility hormones when stressed. So trying hard this month to KEEP CALM.

Great idea re list @lucieloos !

Loladoodle · 24/06/2020 09:28

@Happyhappy37 ooooh interesting... when is af usually due? So basically your poas addiction is there too but just for opks not hpt 🤣
