@Neurotic90 thank you so much for that info! That will be the next thing I try after af.

Neurotic90 · 30/09/2020 08:07

Hopefully it helps!

I've not had a temp rise to confirm ovulation but still plenty of time really for me considering how long my cycles usually are, if I ovulate before CD 35 I'll be happy.

Suki2020 · 30/09/2020 12:54

Think I’ve now finally ovulated and am 5DPO at long last 🤞

Neurotic90 · 30/09/2020 12:55

Everything crossed this is your month @Suki2020!

SarahTTC2020 · 30/09/2020 12:55

Ahh fingers crossed @Suki2020

Newbie0818 · 30/09/2020 19:23

@Neurotic90 I know the feeling! I'm cd12 currently so ov is still a way off probably.

@Suki2020 fingers crossed 🤞🏼

Hi girls sorry I’ve been a bit absent, I’ve been so busy!
Currently in cycle 3 TTC and ovulated today according to LH so keeping everything crossed!
Weirdly had a 30 day cycle last month and this one looks like it’ll be 46 days

Newbie0818 · 02/10/2020 09:09

@justlonelystars fingers crossed for you!

xoJellyBean · 02/10/2020 11:22

@justlonelystars hope this is your month 🥰

How's everyone doing? It's been quiet over here 🤭

Thanks @Newbie0818 and @xoJellyBean

I’m struggling with giving up caffeine so much! Alcohol I feel very meh about (thought I’d miss it a lot more than I do!) but other than that I’m doing good. I’m such an anxious person though, I hate the two week wait before I can start testing!

xoJellyBean · 02/10/2020 11:32

@justlonelystars have you given up on caffeine completely?? I have about two coffees per day, no idea if it's affecting anything😂

OP posts:
justlonelystars · 02/10/2020 11:36

@xoJellyBean I’ve really REALLY tried to but I might still have the sneaky coffee when things get tough. Compared to my 3x coffee, 2 cans of diet cokes and about 5 cups of tea a day previously I feel I’m doing good. I definitely have a serious addiction!

xoJellyBean · 02/10/2020 11:40

@justlonelystars you're doing really well then!! We have a coffee machine in my office and it's just so handy lol are you temping this month?

OP posts:
justlonelystars · 02/10/2020 11:43

@xoJellyBean no, it wasn’t working for me. I have quite bad anxiety so wake up during the night with worry and toss and turn for hours. So by the time it’s time for me to temp in the morning, I haven’t had the 4 hours uninterrupted sleep I’m meant to and my temps just didn’t make sense. I’m just doing LH strips daily now - more expensive but has a much better chance of catching ovulation for me than temping!

Newbie0818 · 02/10/2020 14:10

@xoJellyBean all good, just still waiting for ov :) hubby booked his SA yesterday so waiting on that an then hopefully fertility clinic referral 🤞🏼

@justlonelystars that's good then! I'm quite lucky as I can't have caffeine as it sets off my anxiety, so for me that's not an issue haha. The tww is the worst isn't it. I would just say don't feel you have to give everything up completely as life is short and who knows how long it will be for! Make the most of it before pregnancy 😉

justlonelystars · 02/10/2020 14:28

@Newbie0818 yes I’m just going completely cold turkey during the tww, having some alcohol/caffeine in the pre ovulation bit but just less than before TTC! To be fair I’ve found some great non-alcoholic beers so don’t feel like I’m missing out too much

xoJellyBean · 03/10/2020 08:20

Ovulation confirmed by my app on cd14, baffled! Never ovulated this early!

@xoJellyBean hopefully it's a good sign! Mine was same this cycle and it was my lucky one
Have you DTD?

xoJellyBean · 03/10/2020 09:43

@SarahTTC2020 ahhh🙈😱 I really hope I'm lucky! We had been away for a spa and were super relaxed so have dtd before and after, here's hoping!

Fingers crossed this is your month @xoJellyBean

Newbie0818 · 04/10/2020 20:09

Ladies, I'm pretty certain I ovulated yesterday, on CD19! Please send fertile thoughts this way and pray this is finally my month 🙏🏻

Sending fertility fairy dust to you all x

Suki2020 · 04/10/2020 21:31

@Newbie0818 that’s good news, keeping fingers crossed for you. Are you temping and doing OPKs still? I’m 10dpo now at long last. My cycle this time will be 63days 😩

SarahTTC2020 · 04/10/2020 23:17

Yay @Newbie0818 FC this is your cycle 🤞🤞🤞

Newbie0818 · 05/10/2020 06:58

@SarahTTC2020 thank you x

@Suki2020 ah I hope this is it for you! 🤞🏼 I gave up doing opk's but have been temping :)

xoJellyBean · 05/10/2020 14:33

@Newbie0818 how's temping going for you??
