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

@Newbie0818 darling I think you're doing it wrong - it goes in the fanny for TTC, not the arse.

2020mission · 13/07/2020 14:35

@SmileyT or anyone else who've got their BFPs recently... quick question: have any of you tested on both IC and FRERs to be able to compare/confirm sensitivity? I'm wondering if it's worth giving up on IC tests when testing early as I have a feeling they would never show a line before AF like a FRER would. Am I right?

Minster2012 · 13/07/2020 14:47

@Skip86 & @newbie0818 fucking knew I was doing something wrong, DH PROMISED me a baby if we did it up the bum 🤮🤢(that's mega lols especially after surgery we've discussed probably on thread 2 I told him my abdo/bum surgeon forbade bum sex 🤫)

@SmileyT we missed a golden rule of getting pregnant 😳don't forget the woman MUST not orgasm after ovulation so as not to shake out any potential sticking of bean. Again, that's why I'm doing it wrong, damn orgasms.

@2alreadywantanother bits in teeth yum yum yum

2alreadywantanother · 13/07/2020 14:52

@minster2012 that's me out so 😂😂 not having an orgasm just isnt an option

lucyrp · 13/07/2020 15:05

I have had shooting pains in my right ovary/ tubes today ☹️

Ltay2 · 13/07/2020 15:12

Ooo a new bus! 🚌 loving the name 😂

Finally caught up now! Just a quick question to those that use the CB advanced digital OPK, I know it says that once you get flashing smiley you can test multiple times a day. How many of you do this? I don't know whether to test morning and night at that point and potentially waste valuable tests or just to do the usual FMU and then test with cheapie OPK for rest of the day? Just don't want to miss my peak because I think my surge is only short, I've never managed to catch a peak on cheap OPK before!

This has turned into an essay for a very simple question, sorry 😂

Skip86 · 13/07/2020 15:12

@Minster2012 oh I hear ya, with my bum drain OH knows that tunnel is one way, and always will be. I will only do your last barbie position in the dark too!

SmileyT · 13/07/2020 15:26

@notyetamumbuttrying I think you should be naked on the sofa when he comes out the bedroom 😉

@Minster2012 the barbie and ken models kill me - and yes I forgot the not orgasming after ovulation but must orgasm after fertile week sex, ffs why are there so many rules 😂

@LBee2020 just do it, get it out of your system unless it's going to upset you then definitely don't x

@2alreadywantanother bit like cum you just get used to it 😝

@2020mission pics are my tests maybe not the best ones to use as I waited until 13dpo but it did come up on ic (very faint) and much clearer on FRER. I feel like a couple days before it would still show a hint of a line on ic but probs not if you're testing 9/10dpo, the months I've tested before with ic it's been stark white x

@lucyrp could it be ovulation? Do an opk just to check x

@Ltay2 I decided just to test once a day but if you test in the evening then it may give you the static 12hrs earlier, I just didn't want to waste tests. My CB box lasted me 4months 😂

Minster2012 · 13/07/2020 15:29

@Ltay2 how good have you been with the ICs before? If you are good with them then I'd say no need for multiple testing of CB, or you could test with IC (keeping wee in a pot still don't throw it away) & when you get a high or potential peak then use the CB in the pot of wee?? That way you aren't wasting loads but could still get the static when it needs to be?

@Lucyrp I sent you a message the other day but I def would be hitting up the doctor again saying you are getting pains

@Skip86 one way tunnels here too 🚫big no entry but why the dark when you send pics to DH?!! Come on sexy lady!!

@2alreadywamtanother I know, we are screwed right

Noble89 · 13/07/2020 15:36

@Ltay2 I tested morning and night from CD12. I started doing that after one month I never got a peak on CB and read somewhere it might be that I just have a short surge and could be missing it. I've never missed it testing twice a day and interestingly it's always evening when I get my static. I don't know if I would have gotten a static the next morning had I waited but I'd definitely say twice a day at least until you have a few months data. Like if you get your static 2 months in a row in the evening of CD14 you start to get a clearer picture of when ovulation will be and if you're regular or not

lucyrp · 13/07/2020 15:37

@Ltay2 I only texted once a day until CD13 then I did one in the evening too and it was still high then in the morning the next day it went to a static!

@SmileyT I'm not sure I've had it few times lately but haven't thought anything of it as nothing else is goinn on could be nothing. Il do an OPK when I get home from work but they seem to have been lighter if not the same the last time I did one x

@Minster2012 oooo I did try and refresh my inbox but nothing came through but I've just seen your message. I will reply after work! I don't think il ring again until next week if I have no more pains x

2020mission · 13/07/2020 15:37

Thanks @SmileyT that helps! One final question... is there any difference in the IC tests at the bottom of your photo other than the brands (e.g. the test day)? The ones I've got are the blue one step ones which looks the same as the bottom test in your photo.

blodyn91 · 13/07/2020 15:40

I can't be the only one that allows entry in both tunnels 😂😂 only after red wine, and limited amount a year mind 😳😳 must go back to baby making sex now.

@SmileyT thats interesting, I think AF will hit me before I reach 13dpo, so I never get the chance to use the IC 😩

Minster2012 · 13/07/2020 15:43

No worries @lucyrp I've just spoken to my IVF clinic & they said that if I've got another BFN tomorrow then to get a prescription for northisterone tablets to bring on a bleed either from them or my GP. She said if it's over 40 days then that's not right & the GP should do it too, she said that without me mentioning the day 19 bloods I got done so I'm sure you should get them? Who was it I spoke to about them before maybe they would be fine for a short period (someone going on holiday?) then as she said 3 times a day for 5 days should then bring on a bleed? Whereas I was on them fir weeks before, it's annoying as she asked me if I had any left from before and I literally threw a packet away a week ago I think. Damn it

Minster2012 · 13/07/2020 15:46

Mind you maybe you are ovulating again @Lucyrp 🤔

Newbie0818 · 13/07/2020 15:49

@2alreadywantanother @notyetamumbuttrying yes! Last cycle we DTD every second day for about 6 weeks so I think I've broken myself 😂 dh is up for it though so I suppose I'd better make the most of it.

@Skip86 hahahaha!! Oh god @Minster2012 I've only ever done "that" twice in my life and both times felt traumatised. NEVER AGAIN 😳

Also... I don't want to get my hopes up but my opk's are getting slightly darker. I'm only on cd9 and they're usually stark white still. It would be SO nice if the inositol brought ov forward 🙌🏼

lucyrp · 13/07/2020 15:58

@Minster2012 oh really ? Lol I'm 25 days past CD40 and she still doesn't care. I've rang the doctors again but the only time another doctor can ring is tomorrow afternoon when I'm in work and my other doctor is on annual leave at the moment so its not looking great. Il attach my latest OPKs which seem to be lighter than the other ones so don't think its ovulation

Newbie0818 · 13/07/2020 16:01

@lucyrp it's a weird thing to ask another lady... but what's your cm doing?

lucyrp · 13/07/2020 16:04

@Newbie0818 I'm not really sure I haven't inspected but I shall look when I'm home 😂 I would say it's quite thick and creamy ?

Minster2012 · 13/07/2020 16:04

@lucyrp would it not be better to speak to a different doctor than your usual one if they are on annual leave? Actually get to talk to a different one might be good? You could even say you "friend" has just got northisterone prescribed at CD40 (don't mention the IVF) for cycles of usually 28/30 days? I won't get offended you mentioning me 😂🤫

Minster2012 · 13/07/2020 16:06

@Newbie0818 we consider NOTHING weird here we've been talking bout bum sex! @Blodyn91 "a limited amount per year" I can imagine you going "are you going to use up your bum sessions now or save TIL Christmas??"

lucyrp · 13/07/2020 16:07

@Minster2012 yeah I am speaking to a different one. I don't teally have a usual doctor I tend to just go to whoever is available but there's a few lady doctors I go to so I've picked 1 of 3 😂 I shall mention it to her on the phone tomorrow I think. P.s I've replied to your message 🥰

lucyrp · 13/07/2020 16:07

@blodyn91 @Minster2012 bum sex 😂 I for one have to be VERY VERY in the mood for that 😂

Franklydear · 13/07/2020 16:10

I'll raise you to Oreo icecream, in the shape of the biscuit 🤣

mumof23188 · 13/07/2020 16:20

@Vil10 @Noble89 @Mococo1 thank you! I can’t stop thinking about it 🙈 I’ve got loads of IC so will test again tomorrow morning. I never usually see anything on the IC but I feel like I can see something on it!
