Anyone else DTD few days before ov?! 2WW

DTD with my partner on Saturday which makes it cycle day 13 for me. I ovulate around cycle day 15/16. So today or tomorrow. I can’t DTD today so I have to stick with my partners swimmers from Saturday. Wondering if I’m still in with a chance this month 😕I know it takes hours for egg to be released and sperm live for a few days but I’m still thinking I’m out. Anyone else in the same boat as me?

Thanks ladies!! We went to Cornwall for a week and the weather was lush 
My nausea is pretty bad and dominated the whole holiday but we still managed to do everything we wanted, just at a slower pace! I don't want anything to eat or drink, yet feel even worse when hungry so can't win!! I'm eating for the sake of it and it's miserable!! I hope it passes quickly!! Going for early scan today which isn't helping my anxiety and nausea ha!
My fingers are crossed for you both! @RobinRose your journey really can't have been easy, but keep the faith that it will happen!!!
@Leobaby I'm still hopeful for you! Things always happen when not expecting! Enjoy the cocktails for me if you do though!! Wanted nothing but a nice cold cider when I was away!!

Csari · 25/07/2020 10:37

Ooh @SK2970 I hope you had a lovely time, where did you stay? I always love hearing about when people visit Cornwall lol I hope everyone was friendly.
Hope your early scan goes well!

How is everyone else feeling today?

SK2970 · 26/07/2020 09:29

@Csari we stayed a few miles inland from St Michaels Mount!  it was so nice, we had a little one-bed cottage which was cute! Had a day in Padstow crabbing with some family that were also coincidently down there! Dreading going back to work tomorrow!!
The scan went well, all good and measuring a couple of days ahead.

Hope everyone is ok! Did you enjoy cocktails @Leobaby?

Leobaby · 26/07/2020 16:26

@SK2970 aww that’s so lovely! How was your scan? Are you on any anti sickness meds? Keeping yourself hydrated lol? Aw it sounds so lovely I wish I was able to go and do that!
But I’m okay thank you. Had a nice weekend celebrating my partners birthday. Cocktails was horrible, I couldn’t drink them! They made me feel sick. So stuck to my flavoured water and Pepsi 😂 wasn’t too bothered to be honest as I’m not a big drinker. Still not due till Wednesday but really think I’m out this month. So I’m gonna prepare myself for the disappointment!

Aw @Leobaby I still think you're in with a really good chance, especially going off alcohol! Have you tested again since?

I have had a spot of blood tinged CM today and some cramping and spre boobs. Trying not to read too much into it as its been a weird cycle anyway and could just be AF coming early

Leobaby · 26/07/2020 18:47

@Csari do you reckon? I didn’t look into it like that. And no I haven’t, I thought I’d wait until af is due. It’s only a few days now!

Ahh I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you that it’s a good sign!!how many dpo are you now? When is your af due?

OP posts:
Csari · 26/07/2020 19:19

@Leobaby I think I'm either 8 or 9 dpo but not really 100% sure and same with when AF is due, ive read that it could even be 6 weeks in the first cycle after a chemical. I have no idea of when I'd even test or if I actually ovulated lol.

I totally get the waiting till AF is due, fingers crossed for you and hopefully the days go quickly until then. I hate all the waiting.

Leobaby · 26/07/2020 20:00

@Csari ah okay if the timing of dpo is right then hopefully the spotting is a good sign! Ah I see that’s a mess. Well seeing as your breasts are sore there must be something going on! So either af will come at normal time for you or it’ll be a bfp! Fingers crossed for you.

And yes, I’m really not sure because this month has been very relaxed not much going on apart from very sore boobs. Not even my normal mood swings I get a week before. So strange. But yes 3 more days and we shall see🤔

RobinRose · 27/07/2020 08:11

@SK2970 glad you had a nicd holiday! You could try polo's for your nausea? Just dont eat too many! Glad your scsn went ok 😊I have deleted all my apps (again) and trying not to calculate when af will be due!

🤞 for you @Leobaby!!

Hope everyone has a lovely week x

Leobaby · 27/07/2020 12:38

@RobinRose have you, what CD are you now? Good luck for this month my love. And thank you, feeling very emotional today so thinking af might arrive on time. Strange my bbt was the highest it’s been in the am today though. Still think I’m out. X

OP posts:
Leobaby · 27/07/2020 12:39

Very down today, but as well hope everyone has a good week x

OP posts:
RobinRose · 27/07/2020 14:28

@Leobaby I am on CD10, Thank you, I think I need more than luck but I will grab as much luck as I can😂. Sorry your feeling down today, have a pamper sesh, stick a movie on and eat chocolate! x

Csari · 27/07/2020 14:35

@Leobaby sorry to hear that you are feeling down :( I second @RobinRose, chocolate and a movie always makes things a little better.

Leobaby · 27/07/2020 14:45

Haha @RobinRose I know! I’m throwing as much luck as I can your way! 😂 yes you’re both right! @Csari but I don’t have any chocolate 😭 I really would love some right now. My partners cake was chocolate and it was amazing I wanted to eat it all🤤 my temp is very high today upon waking. 2 days before af! I had a dip at 10dpo I’m 13 today. Bfn on a cheapie but it’s 25MIU so maybe way too high. The faint line I had last week was deffo a false lmao! X

Morning everyone, how are you all feeling today?

Leobaby · 28/07/2020 12:00

Morning! @Csari I’m okay. Still down, feeling insecure & paranoid, thinking it’s the hormones messing with me unfortunately. Temp drop this morning so would be about right as af is due tomorrow. How are you?

OP posts:
Csari · 28/07/2020 12:46

I'm ok, CD25 now so AF could arrive at any moment. My boob soreness has vanished overnight so I'm thinking im out this month too as that normally happens a few days before AF. Plus I just really don't feel pregnant.

I'm sorry you are feeling rubbish, hormones are such a pain :( is there anything you can do to feel a bit better?

Leobaby · 28/07/2020 15:30

@Csari yep same here my boobs aren’t as sore anymore. Big indicator I will be on within a day or so. Usually I come on the day my boobs stop hurting. Ah bless you, if it is af hopefully next month your cycle goes back to normal and can try properly again

I’m feeling okay now to be honest, I’ve had some chocolate! Planning activities for next summer has excited me too. Just waiting for af to arrive now so I can move on lol!

OP posts:
RobinRose · 28/07/2020 20:58

Hey all, I am all good! Not doing very well at dtd every other day but managing every 3rd day which I guess isn't too bad!

@Leobaby see, chocolate fixes everything (anyone who says otherwise is a liar!) 🤣 i find waiting for af to arrive the worse part.

@csari I hope af doesn't show for you either! Make sure you have some chcolate just in case!

Leobaby · 29/07/2020 00:05

@RobinRose fingers crossed again for you this month!! You need that bfp!!
Haha yes, I have a pack of buenos as they’re my fav!😂have had very light cramps this evening. I expect af tomorrow! X

OP posts:
Jjjbean · 29/07/2020 14:05

@Leobaby yes, yes I do need it 😑🤣 omg I'm jealous I love Buenos but I can't eat them anymore !!😫 you definitely think your out this month?

Leobaby · 29/07/2020 14:20

You changed your name? @Jjjbean I got very confused lmao. Why can’t you eat them?!🥺yes my af arrived just now on time. Deffo knowing my body better than before at the moment lol!

OP posts:
RobinRose · 29/07/2020 14:41

@Leobaby I have been having trouble posting for some reason, keeps coming up with an error message and won't let me post?! Tried changing my name and that seemed to work. Changed it back now! Im allergic to hazelnut! Haven't always been. Oh no i am sorry that is really rubbish! Are you okay? I know what you mean, I think i am far too intune with my body now 🤣 had a migraine Monday and this morning so I am assuming I have ovulated or am about to!

Leobaby · 29/07/2020 14:52

Lmao I got confused again then 🤣 @RobinRose how strange! Oh wow, that’s strange how you’ve not always been? I didn’t know you could develop allergies like that! That’s such a pain I love buenos I’d die if I couldn’t eat them again 😭yes I’m okay. I’m very fed up of everything and everyone in general at the moment, people have been testing me this month, to the point I really don’t give a toss anymore lmao. But yes same! Ooo that’s good, have you covered your days? Really hope you get your bfp this month!!🤞🏼

OP posts:
RobinRose · 30/07/2020 12:45

@Leobaby no i ended up getting alergies in my late teens! Oh no, sorry yo hear you haven't had a very good month! August is a shiny new month 😁 umm I think so, just dtd when we can, I must have got one day surely 😄 i haven't really had any ewcm this month. I don't think this month will be our month! I think it is easier to stay negative about it now.

How's everyone else getting on?!
