AF has arrived 🥳 - I'm so relieved!

I shall definitely be using OPKs this month.

MrsB2019x · 01/10/2020 08:25

Glad you know where you’re at now @kirinm ☺️

Nearly TWW @whambam89! 🥳 Best jump on DH tonight!

I had a dream about my baby last night, the lost one. So woke up feeling pretty shit. On the plus side unless I look on my app, I don’t know how many DPO I am, and haven’t missed the constant countdown at all. I’m constantly thinking of TTC all day every day still but I have no idea how to shake that off!

whambam89 · 01/10/2020 09:13

@MrsB2019x we DTD last night will try and persuade OH to do tonight as well 😂 will probably do another opk later just to see if I've hit peak or not yet.

I know what you mean about constantly thinking about TTC, it's impossible not to isn't it?!

whambam89 · 01/10/2020 09:51

Looks like yesterday was my peak or I've missed my peak so I guess we're not in with much of a chance this month!

@whambam89 doesn't peak mean you're likely to ovulate in the next 48 hours? DTD tonight and you should be covered!

whambam89 · 01/10/2020 12:36

@kirinm I'm wondering if I missed my peak and it was before yesterday, my peak last month was 2.41 so quite a lot higher! Will try and persuade OH to DTD tonight either way 😂

whambam89 · 01/10/2020 12:37

@kirinm just checked last month's OPKs actually and I had a 2.21 on CD20 then down to 1.68 and 1.97 then back up to 2.41 on CD21 so it could go back up again later I suppose!

whambam89 · 01/10/2020 19:52

1.2 reading on tonight's opk, so yesterday or earlier was my peak... Now kicking myself for not doing them sooner and assuming I'd ovulate later like last month 🤦🏻‍♀️ feel like I may as well sign up for the November thread already 😂

MrsB2019x · 01/10/2020 20:12

@whambam89 You say that like we made September and October threads 😂

whambam89 · 01/10/2020 20:21

@MrsB2019x that's true 😂 I feel like you can tell that we're all being a bit quieter / trying our hardest to not think about TTC that much by the fact that we're still on August... I guess the only benefit of only DTD once in my FW this time is that I feel we have pretty much no chance so maybe the TWW won't be so torturous for me 😂

MrsB2019x · 02/10/2020 08:08

@whambam89 That and quite a few people left after August because they got pg lol. Nice we still hear from some though ☺️

Thinking of you today @Sansa87 x

whambam89 · 02/10/2020 08:14

@MrsB2019x that's true!

Let us know how you get on @sansa87 hoping everything is ok for you x

Sansa87 · 02/10/2020 08:30

Thankyou ❤️ I’m in waiting room now

Sansa87 · 02/10/2020 10:06

All okay with baby. No idea where bleeding is coming from. This is rollercoaster.

claireb7rg · 02/10/2020 11:52

@Sansa87

All okay with baby. No idea where bleeding is coming from. This is rollercoaster.
💓💓😊 great news! (Well not great it's unknown bleeding, but good news about bean)
MrsB2019x · 02/10/2020 12:46

@Sansa87 So glad little one is okay! 💙

whambam89 · 02/10/2020 18:34

@Sansa87 so glad baby is ok!

claireb7rg · 03/10/2020 08:23

I think we're done ttc 😢 I'm due to ovulate today and partner doesn't seem bothered. We dtd on Tuesday and my efforts to try again have been ignored.

Not sure now what the point of waiting for fertility clinic is 😢

whambam89 · 03/10/2020 09:13

@claireb7rg sorry to hear he's not "cooperating"! Have you spoken to him about it?

MrsB2019x · 03/10/2020 10:05

Oh @claireb7rg that must be so difficult 😔 Maybe he is too frightened of the disappointment of trying again, but you can’t live in a sexless marriage either. I’m so sorry. Have you tried speaking to him? x

claireb7rg · 03/10/2020 10:29

Not yet, not really had chance, he was asleep almost as soon as I got into bed last night. He was up early ish (for a Saturday) this morning as he's had to go into work.

Got a blazing peak on opk this morning so maybe there is still a chance.

whambam89 · 03/10/2020 11:06

@claireb7rg fingers crossed, doesn't sound like you've missed ovulation yet! Hopefully that gives you tonight and tomorrow to give it a shot 🤞

claireb7rg · 03/10/2020 20:10

He's on his 2nd glass of wine, 🤞🤞 for tonight 😉

whambam89 · 03/10/2020 21:28

@claireb7rg good luck!!

MrsB2019x · 04/10/2020 00:51

Fingers crossed @claireb7rg! Sounds like you haven’t missed the boat yet ☺️

I’m torn. We have friends round next Saturday for drinks, I am due AF the Monday after next. Do I test on the Saturday just in case? But I also really don’t want to start testing early this month. 🤯 I’ve been doing good with the relaxed approach so I don’t want to ruin it by testing early but would also feel terrible for drinking if pregnant.
