Yeah, we're thinking not bringing legal marriage forward and buying a new house together but I have assets worth £150k more than him so just want to make sure they are protected. He's refusing to sign anything and said it proves I don't trust him.

@butterfly5291 ah god that is a tricky area to be in. Men are so stubborn they don't see the whole picture! Is there some legal representative that could perhaps talk to him about it? Sometimes hearing it from someone outside the situation goes through more

His best mate is a lawyer, it was actually this wife that told me to consider a pre nup. My oh doesn't know I've spoken bto her. She's just text and said my oh has been in touch with her husband so hopefully they'll be able to talk sense into him.
Not the nicest conversation in my fertile week!

@butterfly5291 Christ 🤦‍♀️ men lol! I hope yous can get through it in time to catch your peak. I've been there before with the arguments at the wrong time and felt like Monica with Chandler when they're trying 😂

@Stabal thank you for sharing. I had some pain today and a bit of cm..I'm cd12 so I'm hoping this means I'm ovulating soon. BD every other day since AF stopped so fingers crossed! My lh tests are on a steady high on femometer. I'm testing 3x a day now

Well we went to bed on good terms so let's see how today goes. What are people's thoughts on a pre nup?

@stepmumSW5 🤞🤞 I'm glad things seem to be more normal for you now!

@butterfly5291 that's good to hear! Personally if I was in your position I would be all for a prenup. That being said I have nothing to protect right now so absolutely no need for us to consider it 😂

Temp drop for me this morning so I'd say ovulation is today. Going to try and DTD after work. I hate when it falls on us being passing ships in our work days 😩

Ok sorry for the super tmi but I can only ask you guys this. This morning shortly after waking up I had so much "mucus" that it went through my shorts, very watery. Yesterday we BD in the evening and I peed right after. Do you think this was actually mucus or just leftover c*m from yesterday?

@Stabal he'sstill being bit off but just DTD anyway.
It makes me concerned that he's so against signing a bit of paper that protects him as well as me tbh.

Hope you get to DTD tonight too. Looks like we'll be in our TWW wait together!

He's

@butterfly5291 I completely understand where you're coming from. Me and my OH are a bit different because we've been together since I was 17 so everything we've built towards we've done together. The house, car etc. When he woke up today and messaged me at work I said to him we have like 12 hours to DTD today so when I got home he was in bed waiting 😂 who says romance is dead 🤷🏻‍♀️ I love that he's so keen bless him

@stepmumSW5 no such thing as TMI here! To be honest it's probably a mix of the two. I know even though I pee afterwards there's still some the next morning but at the same time this cycle I've definitely felt 'wet' with the ewcm. So I'd take it as a good sign!

@Stabal haha that's great he's still so enthusiastic...I know you've been on this journey a while and it can become tricky to keep enthusiasm going!
He's said it's just a horrible situation but of course he will sign anything that means we can get married and make me feel comfortable. Just need to find out what we should actually do now!

@Stabal thank you. How are your opk readings going? I got a tiny increase today but I'm behind you cd12. Xx

@stepmumSW5 I got a darker peak last night and now back to high today. Temp drop this morning so I reckon today is O day 🤞 CD19 for me which is a few days earlier than usual but I'm not complaining lol. Keeping my fingers crossed for you getting your peak in a couple of days! x

@Stabal fingers crossed for our bfps!! Xx hubby is too tired for bd today though 😰 I am hoping we are fine with bd just every other day x

@stepmumSW5 I'm a firm believer in every other day. It just seems the most logical. I know there's some articles that sperm quality doesn't lessen but it has to, right? I dunno! I know I definitely won't get OH to DTD again tomorrow, he's on a split shift so will be completely wrecked so just grateful he's so into this that he was waiting for me when I got home from work today 😂 the only time today we would have had a chance!

@Stabal thank you, I agree. And weeks when my dss is here he is so tired, he's a proper dad and plays with him a lot / devotes a lot of energy to him so I don't expect him to dtd every day.

My temp didn't rise as much as I'd hoped this morning so unsure if I ovulated or not. I usually get a very significant jump so don't think I have. Argh!

@Stabal I have started temping but I have zero confidence in my thermometer. I might buy natural cycles for the next month. Which one do you use?

My LH peaking so my hubby will be hearing from me very soon 😂

@stepmumSW5 yay! Happy baby dancing 😂 I use the femometer blue tooth one but honestly you don't need it. Just the normal femometer one is fine as it stores your temp until you next take it so it's always there to check back on if you forget to record it straight away. I might do vaginal temping next cycle and see if there's less fluctuations

@Stabal thank you x I'll keep that in mind for the next cycle.

CD15 now... still getting just high reading on CB fertility monitor and absolutely nothing on OPKs!
I wish this didn't bother me more than it does...why would I not see even a wee increase in the darkness of the line!

@butterfly5291 which brand of OPKs are you using?

@butterfly5291 sometimes they do that and then go suddenly dark,at cd15 maybe start testing 3 times a day. Watch out for the diluted urine, it made some of my opks go super faint.

@Stabal femometer ones

@stepmumSW5 I've tested twice today, once this morning and once this afternoon. Think I'd only had a cup of tea in the morning and bit of water in the afternoon do I wouldn't say very diluted.

@butterfly5291 keeping testing, don't give up. You might ovulate late this cycle
