Have you seen our guide to getting pregnant?🤣

  1. Lots of sex (every other day to catch) or SMEP or just Banging OH to death seems to work for some - For the same sex couples out there; Insemination using a cup (easily available on Amazon) Bum up after the goods are deposited... don’t leave it in the cup for ages before you put it in ✌🏾
  1. Relaxing & lots of patience
  1. Prenatal vitamins e.g Pregnacare, COQ10, Primrose oil, B6, B12, Calc Flour, Folic acid/Folate, Magnesium, Vit C (will have to do your research on amounts/when to take these)
  1. Conceive plus/preseed - if you haven’t had enough assfruit juice and you aren’t moister than an 🦪 💦
  1. Seed cycling - make sure you ground them up
  1. Grapefruit juice (ass juice) for EWCM - CM should be stretchy sometimes hard to tell the difference between cum if you get loads of action.

7.OPKS/CB Digital ovulation kits 😂 A lot of us seem to like fermometer to record the OPK peaks

  1. It will happen when it's meant to but not necessarily the month you want it to 😩

9.Wine, pizza, oreo choc and pouffe sex

10.Relax, dont be stressed, take bbt, dont take bbt, dont obsess, obsess, exercise, don't exercise too much, loose weight, don't loose too much weight, eat healthy, don't let it consume you and eat what you want apart from too much alcohol, caffeine, cigs obvs

11.PMS/ early pregnancy symptoms are the same and the progesterone likes to trick you.

And most of all it isn’t your fault, blame corona for all BFN

@KateColx @Akcheer @Minster2012 @2alreadywantanother @Juno231 I'll definitely have a look into using one of them! I've never really needed lube, but it can't hurt can it!

notyetamumbuttrying · 15/07/2020 09:08

@SmileyT yeah defo sounds like a sensible plan! 😉
@Juno231 agree with you re no need for preseed anymore. All you mentioned means I can produce noticeable ewcm now so yay!
@zippityzip try and hold out and you'll get a more conclusive answer too!
Morning everyone, happy hump day 🙃

Juno231 · 15/07/2020 09:10

@vil10 me neither - I just started getting worried that my lack of ewcm specifically was creating a barrier for his swimmers 😅

Booked a villa in Sicily in Sep and invited our three brothers along (one on my side, two on OH's). So now I'm super excited about having a holiday booked finally! Would be sod's law if I get pregnant just before that and spend the whole time vomming but I'd still be so grateful for that ❤️

Speaking of which - @SmileyT what's happening to your Caribbean trip?

Catherinettc · 15/07/2020 09:26

@lucyrp I honestcant believe ur still at the back of the bus 😲 hopefully u will be hopping up the front soon xx

Not much to report. Cant test as I'm away at the caravan and testa are at home.

Altogether I've had 3 v faint positive but still don't feel its true? Had a few negatin there too but not as sensitive.

Don't feel pregnant and basically no real symptoms (i had more last month) so who knows? What will be will be i suppose?

2alreadywantanother · 15/07/2020 09:27

@vil10, @Juno231 that's what I'm afraid of, I'm moister than an oyster as is, dont need adding to it while DTD 😂 there would well be a wet patch 😂😂
Just worried I'm not producing any or enough ewcm myself

@sausage1990 alls as well as it can be lol. I'm taking a TTC multivitamin and my af was 3 days later than normal. But that's could be with watching also. Yeah I'm thinking taking a wk it so away from chat might help but im that nosy and would mis the lol's 😂😂

zippityzip · 15/07/2020 09:28

Negative. I knew it. Don't know why I do it to myself!!

Gadea · 15/07/2020 09:30

@garagesale I am so sorry for your loss Flowers

@vil10 we also use preseed. Same as @Minster2012 we use it as normal lube but been using the applicator in my fertile window as the lube is meant to help the swimmers (the tube comes only with 8 applicators and they are meant to be single use). Just be careful not to use too much 😅

@LV1987 it sounds like you might have an extra opportunity today! According to my app, the day after ovulation my chances are still high. Don't know if it's true but I am squeezing one extra shag that day just in case!

Yesterday I talked about ass juice with my partner and he said that he actually really likes the thing. Is my DP ok? Should I find another one? 😂
I'm testing tomorrow unless AF makes an appearance tonight

blodyn91 · 15/07/2020 09:33

@2alreadywantanother I used femometer opks then this cycle got easy@home. I started at cd8 lawt cycle as I had zero idea when I Ovulated. It ended up being cd17, so starting opk at cd10 (today) this cycle-dont need to but I have enough and I enjoy making sure I dont miss anything 😂 Ill just do 1 a day around 2pm until I get a higher reading, when I do Illl up to 3x a day.
@Minster2012 its so hard making these house decisions isnt it! Constantly worried a better house will come up but also worried this is the better house 😆

Juno231 · 15/07/2020 09:35

@gadea I love ass juice! It's all I drink at hotel breakfast buffets lol. My local tesco only has the shitty concentrate one though and I agree that it's pretty vile.

Katao · 15/07/2020 09:36

Morning all! Yes @SmileyT my body has decided to play ball. Woke up to af this morning. @Minster2012 sounds like you aren't far behind. @lucyrp sorry to be leaving you back there but I'm keeping you a seat lovey 😉 I hada tiny bit of spotting yesterday and then af this morning. Usually have cramps for a couple of days first but it sort of snuck up on me in the end so the same might happen you. I'm good @mumof23188 thanks. It's a relief and not even disappointed really because I had already pretty much accepted there was no egg this month.

Soooo where do i go from here? This has kind of shaken my faith in my cycle and opks as i did get a peak at cd19. Was using onestep opks but think they are crap as the control lines were all different darkness so made it hard to compare the test lines to each other. Any recommendations?

lucyrp · 15/07/2020 09:39

@Katao I'm hoping she arrives soon! I'm no good at recommending OPKs either as I got a peak on CD14 on CB digital so 😂🙈

Katao · 15/07/2020 09:45

@blodyn91 just saw your post, which did you prefer between the two brands of opks?
Also welcome back @Sausage1990.
Also thinking of adding preseed to my shopping list. Not sure I'm brave enough to try ass juice 😂
Sorry I feel like I'm always ignoring some people on this thread. I read through and answer in my head but by the time I post I've forgotten who said what 🙈 good luck to all who are testing, I know there are a few of you anxiously near/caught up in early testing. Hope for good news soon!

Katao · 15/07/2020 09:47

Ya @lucyrp I'm not keen to use CB after how that went for you! I have used it before but prefer to see the lines myself. And they are sooo expensive!

lucyrp · 15/07/2020 09:51

Today is the day I've finally given in and going to put this in the attic. It's been in my spare room since I was pregnant before my CP and I've just had enough of looking at it now so until such a time comes it's going away

Juno231 · 15/07/2020 09:52

@katao I've been happy with femometer OPKs so far. Might be worth temping though if you're not sure you're ovulating? The femometer thermometer is £10 I think.

Ltay2 · 15/07/2020 09:54

@2alreadywantanother I would normally start IC on CD10 or 11 but it depends on how long your cycles usually are. Did you get a guide table with your IC tests? How long are your cycles normally?

@KateColx @Minster2012 Wasn't expecting it at all this morning so it surprised me, weird how excited I got at something other than ⭕️

@Vil10 I am considering using preseed or conceive plus next cycle if not successful this time!

Mococo1 · 15/07/2020 10:07

@vil10 I used conceive plus (you get way too much in each tube tho so I only use about half) and so far it worked for me last cycle? you can put it in 15mins before but DH said it feels natural and I've heard lots of good things, I'm pretty sure it's similar to preseed

Mococo1 · 15/07/2020 10:09

Oh @lucyrp 😭 that made me feel really sad but yes no point you keep looking at it and hopefully you can get it back out sooner rather than later xx

LaceyMermaid · 15/07/2020 10:10

Hi all living this thread sounds just like me and my friends talking! Wondered if any of you could give some advice, I had Mirena taken out 3 weeks ago and haven’t had any bleed yet at all. Been doing the Femometer opks and they’re all over the place! Any ideas or do I just need to wait and see if AF appears at some point? Thank you!

@LaceyMermaid I would start by using a blank a4 paper behind them to take a photo and always use same lighting. You have a couple of highs but I would still label them as low really, femometer goes up to 200%. Ill attach what mine looked like last cycle.
@Katao femometer opks were sold out or I would have bought them again, havent started with the easy@home yet. Also see photo for how they look. I also took bbt, think its good to acctually see that you have Ovulated. Now its like second nature taking it.

lucyrp · 15/07/2020 10:23

@Katao for me I think I would still prefer to use thag but i will use cheap OPKs alongside it whenever my time comes to use them again just to make sure 😂

My OPKs now are finally reading low so hoping something will happen soon

@Mococo1 it made me sad too but I'm shoving a load of things in the attic so thought I may aswell do it at the same time. I hope my ceilings don't fall through I've got so much stuff up there 🤣xx

blodyn91 · 15/07/2020 10:25

@LaceyMermaid I would say 13th of July is your peak there. But you have two readings one showing a line and one blank? Id carry on taking them for now but try taking them at 2pm not 6am

blodyn91 · 15/07/2020 10:26

@lucyrp big hugs!! really hoping you get an LH surge with your cycle buddies

Katao · 15/07/2020 10:31

@Juno231 @blodyn91 thank you. I'll see if i can get them. I'm not drawn towards temping as I think I'd get stressed over it but can see the benefits of it for a bit more clarity.

@LaceyMermaid I dont use the app so this is a novice opinion but looks like the readings are off as the darkest one is classed as low and a lighter one high?

Katao · 15/07/2020 10:33

@lucyrp sure you can never pee on to many sticks right 😂
