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

I'm not in this group usually (and dont seem to have a cycle so can't really monitor things) but damn @SmileyT - that was a hilarious OP and really summed it up Grin. Particularly #6 - how DO you tell the difference between semen that's been in there a few hours and EWCM?!?!

Ltay2 · 13/07/2020 16:59

@Minster2012 Good idea think I'll try that, I'll test with IC in evenings and then decide whether to try CB.

@Noble89 @lucyrp That is interesting! I've never noticed a peak on anything but my high IC OPKs did tend to be in the evening.

LBee2020 · 13/07/2020 17:04

@thedaydreambelievers One of life's great questions

Mococo1 · 13/07/2020 17:08

@cocoblue22 I'm off to Tesco's after work🤣👍🏽DH thought I was mad when I put Oreo chocolate on the shopping list and he said what happened to your diet? Haha I told him It's meant to help ttc and so is pizza and macyds chips as I'm 5DPO so we could be possibly implanting in the next few days so I have tea & dessert sorted 🤣

@LBee2020 try and hold off, I'm embarrassed and ashamed that today at 5DPO I took a one step test due to my POAS addiction saw a line and then it disappeared as it's just the dye running up 😂

@2020mission IC seemed to work okay with me but il probs buy FRER if I see the faintest of lines on an IC- they are very deceiving tho espesh if u have a dodgy pack or blue dyes

@lucyrp maybe your mammoth opks were leading up to ovulation? Have u taken a digital opk? I wonder if it will smiley flash X

Vil10 · 13/07/2020 17:09

@Minster2012 so just read that you've been prescribed northisterone to bring on a bleed?? Is that what I'd get prescribed to delay mine because that's what I've had before! I still need to ring my gp about this actually!

Newbie0818 · 13/07/2020 17:14

@lucyrp hmmm interesting. You're a medical mystery my dear! I really hope things start happening for you soon.

@Minster2012 haha, that's why I love this thread 🤣 and I don't think I am EVER in the mood for bum sex!

2alreadywantanother · 13/07/2020 17:20

@mococo1 & @cocoblue22 you 2 are a bad influence. If definitely on for trying the pizza and oreo after ovulation 😂😂 here I dont need an excuse to try that shit 🍕🍕🍪🍦

lucyrp · 13/07/2020 17:27

@Mococo1 no I haven't taken a digital one because I think it would only work as part of a cycle as it has to recognise a low before it can then recognise a high then a peak x

@Newbie0818 what was the reason you were asking what my CM was like ? I'm about to investigate further now 😂🤣

Mococo1 · 13/07/2020 17:30

Sorry @lucyrp I havent invested in digital opks yet! so didn't realise you had to do a few! Im guessing your CM could tell you if the twinging pain was maybe ovulation related?

Oh gosh guys why am I having outbreaks? Sign AF is on her way 😩😭

notyetamumbuttrying · 13/07/2020 17:32

@SmileyT yeah good shout or just with French knickers on laying on my front. 🤭

@blodyn91 it's not for me. Tried it a few times with exes but haven't with PH (poor husband) 😂 bit mean right lol! He says he's not fussed but I think he secretly is lol!

@Newbie0818 wow that's a lot of shagging! We only manage it about 4 times in FW and then once in tww. He doesn't seem fussed for anymore as it's always me initiating. I think his sex drive is lowish which is a pain for me when I want it more than once a week. Ttc has at least meant we actually do it more, 😀

Cocoblue22 · 13/07/2020 17:39

@2020mission I did both and the IC was so faint when they CB was really obviously a BFP so I don't think I'd ever bother with ICs again only used it as it came with my FRERs so used it out of curiosity x

Minster2012 · 13/07/2020 17:54

@ltay2 most ppl peak in the evenings that's why most ppl do OPKs continuing too through evening I think

@Thedaydreambelievers, welcome and we are on bus 12 and we've got no idea yet 🤔😂

@vil10 yes it's weird, I was on it for 6 weeks before to stop my period now will be on it for 5 days to bring it on, so I guess you take it, then stop it & it makes a bleed 🙈😳

@Newbie0818 are you saying most Monday's don't involve talking about bum sex??? How bizarre? Well it's good you have us then isn't it! Wouldn't want you to miss out 😂

SmileyT · 13/07/2020 17:54

@2020mission oh yeah sorry forgot to say mine were just the ones that came with the femometer opks so 25ul you can get cheapies that are 10ul so nearly as sensitive as FRER and early response CB 🙌🏾

@blodyn91 tbh the last few months I just used ic because I kinda knew I wasn't pregnant so hadn't bought any FRER, and I'm in the access in the back door team but only if I'm very merry and relaxed 😂

@Minster2012 I'm glad they are getting you moving so you can get booked in for your IVF 👌🏾

@TheDaydreamBelievers I posted it but it was put together by this lovely bunch, glad you can relate ☺️

@notyetamumbuttrying if he wasn't the cook I'd say get in the kitchen with just your knickers and shout him saying 'what do you want first, dinner or dessert' 💁🏾‍♀️

omg guys this is my LH strip from tonight. Is something finally happening ?! Although I have been to the loo a fair few times today so going to have to hold now until half 9 and then test again and make sure it's still low.

2020mission · 13/07/2020 17:55

@Cocoblue22 after some research I have found the one step strips I have, don't show a line for most people until AF is days late. Sounds like I should have been using FRERs to test early. I'm due AF today but nothing so far. Have been spotting for the last 4 days but only tiny streaks. Not sure if it's AF coming or if it's something else. Still don't want to waste a FRER though 😆 not drinking until Friday so may as well hold off and see if AF turns up soon!

Cocoblue22 · 13/07/2020 17:58

@Franklydear Oreo biscuit shaped ice cream?!? I've had Oreo ice cream in a tub but not shaped like a biscuit! X

@Mococo1 good plan your dinner sounds amazing 🤤 x

@2020mission yeah if you'd rather hold off then that's a good plan I've wasted so many FRERs over the years doh! X

notyetamumbuttrying · 13/07/2020 18:00

Haha good one! @SmileyT he'd prob say dinner cos he's always hungry 🤣
@lucyrp yay a breakthrough!!
@2020mission best of luck! 🍀

Vil10 · 13/07/2020 18:01

@Minster2012 how strange!! Hopefully I won't need to take it this month🤞🏼

@lucyrp finally you might be able to know where you're at!!

TheDaydreamBelievers · 13/07/2020 18:24

Haha thanks @Minster2012 - I'm on CD 119 if you'd believe it. One positive LH around day 63 and otherwise radio silence. My temps are currently a flat line (almost impressive lack of variation) and DH and I have already gone through a swing from sex all the time to cant be assed to sex all the time again.

Newbie0818 · 13/07/2020 18:46

@lucyrp oh I just wondered about ovulation like someone else mentioned! Clearly not the case though, perhaps you finally ov'd a few days ago?

@notyetamumbuttrying tell me about it! Takes a lot for me to be in the mood and tbh I hate the mechanical feel to it at times, but needs must.

@Minster2012 🤣🤣 thank goodness

lucyrp · 13/07/2020 18:48

@Newbie0818 im hoping something has finally hPpened and I can get onto my next cycle soon!😭
