@Minster2012 ah I missed the quiz but I did think dog, sex, dog! Please believe me 🤣

@Skip86 sorry to hear you're feeling so anxious, FC so tightly for you xx

I love morning sex but I don't think my husband likes sex much at all so I feel like I have to force him for anything I can get! Feel like it's my fault for gaining 3.5 stone since we met... Because when we met he initiated it regularly for the first year but then rarely since 😕 ok that comment turned out sadder than I meant 🤣

Mococo1 · 09/07/2020 10:10

@dkdk123 I did some research and due to previous mcs (no other reasons/symptoms) I've now bought some reputable progesterone cream- not sure if that's something u want to look into xx

2alreadywantanother · 09/07/2020 10:10

@dipsy77 my ds was 9mths when we were expecting no 2. They are so close. Like twins. Nearly the same height and all. The amount of people that ask are they. U will have your hands full but it's so worth it.
Put it like this, I'm looking a 3rd lol

2alreadywantanother · 09/07/2020 10:16

Had to look up what SMEP was 🤦‍♀️ I'm so out the loop. We dtd daily or ever other day during fw but didnt do opk which I have for next time. I just hope I'm still ovulating. After all this time and now deciding to ttc I will regret not doing earlier if we cant.
If I am still ov then fingers crossed it catches

Mococo1 · 09/07/2020 10:29

Oh ladies I've just been looking up/watching hubby pregnancy reveals and have found the perfect thing I'm gna do I just hope I'm pg this cycle so I get to do it!

Minster2012 · 09/07/2020 10:30

@Lucyrp yes afraid you def are going to have to keep doing tests but then again a dr would say that too so it's right to do one every week or so, but not ICs or CBs though. Bless your OH that's so sweet of him.

@Dipsy77 wow def hands full but amazing. Def not jealous at all, yep def not jealous 🥰😍😂 (they will be lovely & close)

@Skip86 do you have early pregnancy units you can call fir an emergency scan there? That's what we would do, but Lucy is right, pink CM is better than bleed but having had an MC you should get a scan lovely

@SarahTTC2020 I believe you 🌟and I'm sure your DH still fancies you, we just all get comfortable don't we, it's easy to get in a rut, then when you say, let's TTC it puts pressure on. It's tough, especially with COVID where we've all become more "comfortable" 😂now we can get out a bit how bout using the "eat out to help out" & get dressed up & go out & time round FW?

blodyn91 · 09/07/2020 10:31

@Vil10 sort of, so dtd cd6, but then didn't do everyother until CD11, Ovulated on CD17, but missed CD16, so 3 in a row was Ovulation, day after and day after that (which was too late 🙈). Going to attempt everyotherday from CD8 this time, then when I get my first high will go for everyday as my peak is up and down within 3 days. (that is if this cycle is similar to last, which it probably won't be). Femometer is predicting ovulation on July 19th, FF predicting 23!

lucyrp · 09/07/2020 10:36

@Minster2012 its like torture doing a test all the time knowing its going to be a negative 😫 yeah I'm not sure what tests to get. I'm very dubious about buying FRERS online now too 🙈 poor OH can't wait to have him home tonight this last week I've been so needy/ cuddly and horny 😳

LBee2020 · 09/07/2020 10:51

Hi ladies. Please can I join? I've been snooping for the last couple of weeks and now I want in! My fiance and I had our wedding cancelled this year so decided to switch focus to baby then wedding. We are on our first cycle of TTC number 1. Neither of us really know what we're doing (other than having sex!). I've not done any ovulation testing so based on my very rough calculations I am 6DPO. I've ordered some FRERs but we probably missed ovulation day so not holding out any real hope for month 1! Mainly I'm here for the quizzes 😂

Dipsy77 · 09/07/2020 10:55

@Minster2012 @2alreadywantanother my due date for my MMC in feb was on dds 1st birthday so there would have only been 12 months between them. I think 18 months will be a Lovely age gap if things go ok xx

pondplant · 09/07/2020 11:08

First time ttc and I'm a bit confused. I'm on CD34 of what is normally a 28-30 day cycle and no signs of AF yet. CB came up negative today though. How accurate are these tests? Does this mean I'm definitely out?

Catherinettc · 09/07/2020 11:10

Hey guys im back 🙋‍♀️

Nothing much to report. Around 6dpo (i think) and not a thing happening lol

Just waiting it out i suppose

@Skip86 have i missed a bfp???

@lucyrp I cannot believe ur still in limbo u must be tearing your hair out. Although those twst would get me thinking tbh. I've used cb and never ever had an evap like that, also they have colour? Its crazy

@Minster2012 I see ur still ur cheeky hilarious self 🤣🤣 love reading ur comments I laugh away at my fone like a maniac and my kids think I've lost the plot 🤣🤣

Newbie0818 · 09/07/2020 11:11

@Mococo1 what's the reveal? Do tell! Fingers crossed 🤞🏼

Fleeflyyflooo · 09/07/2020 11:18

Hey :) can I join?

This will be first month of trying. My cycles are a bit all over the place and can range from 26 to 30 days. Any tips or advice would be welcome.

Vil10 · 09/07/2020 11:24

@lucyrp I definitely won't be using them now😂

@Blodyn91 ohhh okay that makes sense! You're ovulating similar time to me then!!x

Minster2012 · 09/07/2020 11:26

@dipsy77, aww there's 17 months between my DH & his first brother & they are v close xx

@LBee2020 WELCOME don't worry, none us know what we are doing either, Oh except @smileyT & @cocoblue22, so you get a pouffe
Or sofa, grab some wine, get some 🍆, then OH makes some 🍕& BOOM you get a baby! Sorrrrttted!! Hopefully if you've read our thread for a bit you know what we are like 🤣😉more quizzing

@Lucyrp ive got an evening to myself tonight, DS was just being an idiot as DH was here for longer this morning as he's gone clay shooting so it meant DS was a mess as daddy left leaving me with a pile of screaming tears on the floor, hitting the door shouting daddy & pushing me away so I'll be on the wine tonight as he's been a nightmare ever since 8.30am when he left.

Soooo, 3 more sex toys or dog toys for your lunch time perusal

Minster2012 · 09/07/2020 11:30

@pondplant no def not our but def not in I'm afraid, you may not have ovulated, I'm on CD36 no AF and BFN, @Lucyrp is on CDsixty something?? She's just weird. @katao also on same as me. Though I'm a bit broken and I also had a medicated miscarriage and Lucy had a MC too so could be that, but unfortunately cycles can play up. You kinda just have to wait a bit then test again most docs won't do anything too after 40 days 😖😫

Catherinettc · 09/07/2020 11:34

Ladies what does implantation feel like? I have a kinda burning feeling on the side. Literally just came on.

Probably clutching straws. Is 6dpo too early for implantation? Will be on knicker watch now all day 🤣

lucyrp · 09/07/2020 11:35

@Catherinettc I can't believe it either ! Oh really ? That's strange the last 3 I've used have all had them on 😫yeah that's what puzzles me is they're actually blue if I hadn't been in the situation I had been I'd be convinced I was pg

@Vil10 I might just be cursed 😂

@Minster2012 sex, dog, dog ?!🤨oh no that sounds dreadful! I can't wait to get home already I'm at my mums sorting out clothes I had from
About 10 years ago and it's a nightmare. I'm terrible at throwing things away especially when I remember them 😂 @pondplant and yes I'm just weird 🙋🏼‍♀️

Mococo1 · 09/07/2020 11:45

@fleeflyyfooo welcomeee!! TIPS:

lots of sex! and Relaxxxx

In a couple of months you'll probs be on the MN following 🤣

  1. Prenatal vitamins
  2. conceive plus/preseed
  3. seed cycling
  4. grapefruit juice for EWCM
7.OPKS/SMEP/CB Digital ovulation kits 😂

Pregnancy tests wise we've figured out:

FRER✅
Fake FRER ❌
CB DIGITAL ✅ (can't take too early)
IC/Generic brands: Blue line tests can give fake evap lines ❌ better off going with pink line tests ✅

Skip86 · 09/07/2020 11:50

Thanks for all the advice and reassurances ladies, and sorry I've come on here today all a bit 'me me meeee!' Just as soon as I saw that blood this convo was my first port of call! You girls are da best 🥰

@Catherinettc haha yes! I'm 5+4 now so my bfp was a couple of weeks ago, but I'm just hanging around here still like a bad smell 💩

@Minster2012 I've wondered what EPU stood for since everyone on here always mentions it! But no I don't know of early pregnancy units here 🤷🏼‍♀️ I think gp is first contact and then maybe you are referred on. To be honest I know there's nothing that can be done if this ends up being MC so I'm just going to sit tight with my hot water bottle and wait.
You DS sounds just like mine! Chucked the world's biggest paddy when OH went to work and didn't want a bar of me all day.
Ok umm, dog, dog, sex??

@Mococo1 thank you so much for your reply and lovely words 💕. The pink bleeding that you said you had is concerning me, but it sounds like you didn't have cramping? What will be will be I suppose. Just have to wait it out.
I'm so sorry you had 2 MCs close together? I didn't realise 😢 I have everything crossed for you to get a sticky one this time around xx

Hi hi to all the newbies 👋🏼👋🏼 enjoy the banter x

Skip86 · 09/07/2020 11:52

@Mococo1 I love your summary, it's like we are a TTC test unit 😂

Franklydear · 09/07/2020 11:52

Aaaahhhh, there's clots in my period, and quite a heavier flow than normal...

Fleeflyyflooo · 09/07/2020 12:01

@Mococo1 thanks for the advice.

I'm not sure I want to know what seed cycling is 😂

I already have a 1 year old DD. But she was a lovely surprise wedding present so didn't go through ttc so feel a little clueless right now.

lucyrp · 09/07/2020 12:03

@Mococo1 omg I love that 😂
