@candycrush2298 Im so hoping this is the month! Its completely different to all the others. One beaut of an OPK, no 3 day peak, nice smooth chart shift.
Wont get my hopes up too much though lol.

Do you know why id get EWCM after ovulation? My chart defo shows it happened so I cant still be fertile surely? Gutted i fell asleep last night if so.

candycrush2298 · 03/10/2020 08:54

@Kaybobx maybe the egg is still in the fallopian tube, so ovulation is still happening. While you have ovulated like the egg has left the ovary there may still be time for the swimmers to get to the fallopian tube, maybe totally 100% guessing lol.

And yes this cycle has been really different for you. In a verrrry good way think the soy dosage agreed with you

@candycrush2298 thank you, if they've worked I'll definitely distribute the rest out to you all lol. They were quite expensive compared to the Tesco ones so hopefully it did the trick.

Ah ok makes sense I guess. Ill BD later just incase, then im defo having a week off! It was nice only doing a few days this month. Last cycles 8-9 days is never happening again haha!!

candycrush2298 · 03/10/2020 09:14

@Kaybobx yeah yours were really expensive compared to Tesco.

I could be wrong lol but thats the only thing I can think of because your temp has spiked. So cant think of any other reason.

Will be sooo amazing if it did do the trick. And I definitely agree 8 or 9 BD is just waaaaay too freaken much lol. Doing it less is way more fun for me too.

I am going to try do it on my second day of high according to the CB monitor as that would be about 2 days before peak and then on peak and day after O. Just in case hubbys sperms low maybe us doing it so often is hindering our chances instead of helping.

@candycrush2298 Hubby doesn't think so but I literally broke my vag last month lol.

Yeah I definitely agree that more BD probably isn't helping. Probably a reason most women struggle to get pregnant too as we just think get as many as we can in the fertile window but forget about how the sperm actually works and how that can be affecting it.

@Boc86 ahhhh thats fab news 😀

NamechangeTTC · 03/10/2020 12:42

@Kaybobx 2-3 Brazil nuts a day from ov.

I’m crampy as fuck this is bizarre. Dunno whether to think today might be ov.

I made the mistake of going for a wax and then having to bd. I’m in agony today.

Elakiya · 03/10/2020 12:54

Hubby waited till I finished studying (3am lol) and then pounced on me hahaha. And then I woke up at about 9 and he pounced on me again. Lol he's so excited exams will be ending soon.

NamechangeTTC · 03/10/2020 13:09

Ooft you’re fitting plenty in @Elakiya

NamechangeTTC · 03/10/2020 13:12

Looks like I’ve peaked for sure.

I already feel so negative this month.

Elakiya · 03/10/2020 13:13

@NamechangeTTC not this cycle we've only BD-ed 3 times and twice was yesterday. I've taken this cycle off completely, just don't have time to study. Following SMEP is a chore in itself.

Boc86 · 03/10/2020 13:29

@NamechangeTTC you’ll be ovulating some point over yesterday or today as it’s like 12-36 (or more) hours after the day you get your positive test
I get bad bad cramps the day after my positive test then mild cramps the day after that x

candycrush2298 · 03/10/2020 13:39

@Kaybobx lol!!! Obviously he doesnt think so he could go every night and have no issues at all he is a man!!! He doesnt have soft folds of tissue that gets sore when rubbed too much lol!!!

I know I mean every other day obviously hasn't helped, every day hasn't helped so why not try a bit less cant do any harm at this point lol!!! I mean if the man doesn't have any sperm issues then I think everyday is fine not too sure about multiple times a day whahahaha!!

@Boc86 yay for peak thats awesome now you get to BD today whoop whoop will you do it tomorrow as well?

@NamechangeTTC its possible today is ovulation it can take up 48 hours after the LH surge for the egg to be released.

@Elakiya hey!!!! How's the studying been going? You winning? Whahahahah your hubby just couldn't deal with no more BD he was struggling so bad hahahah. To wait up until 3am thats dedication lol love it!!! Even if it isn't for TTC its good to just BD just because.

@candycrush2298 I'm good thanks. Nearly at the end now. Tuesday night I am going shopping to start my weight loss journey with all the slimming world recipes you showed me. Very excited.

Hahaha yh he was struggling poor guy got used to doing SMEP so its definitely been difficult for him.

Can't wait to hear about how your scan goes on Friday.

@Kaybobx EWCM after ovulation is exciting. I have my fingers crossed for you. Can you send me a link to the soy you bought. I'm going to order it for next cycle. Going have to lie to hubby that its like pregnacare otherwise he'd never let me take it.

Going to order some OPK's as well. I've really struggled without OPK's this month. As you know my cycles are some what irregular so I predict my cycle length based on the first surge however right now I have no idea. I think it's going to be a 34 day cycle this month because I haven't been taking my metformin properly or eating right.

Kaybobx · 03/10/2020 15:51

@candycrush2298 my hubby could literally go allday everyday. Ive had to wake him up at times during my fertile window as ive been home late from work and he's straight to it! If he ever woke me up for sex I'd probably punch him haha!!

Kaybobx · 03/10/2020 15:54

@Elakiya Ive just done an opk and its low so very strange i still have EWCM.

These are what i ordered. Quite expensive! Hopefully i get pregnant this cycle and can send you mine.

@Kaybobx oh crap they say menopause on them. What are the odds hubby won't know what menopause means lol!

These are £11.93 at the moment by the way. It says 1 left in stock.

Lol! Agreed to the punch if woken up for a sex

Kaybobx · 03/10/2020 16:17

@Elakiya No way are they?! Typical.

Haha drop in conversation 'i think im going through the menopause'. If he says whats that, you then know 🤣🤣🤣

I think Holland & Barrett do them too if you have one near you.

Boc86 · 03/10/2020 16:41

@candycrush2298 yeah we’ve bd today, yesterday and day before then will do it tomorrow and the next day and I may still have a high (but notpeak) opk tomorrow
God far too much sex hahahah

Elakiya · 03/10/2020 17:17

I'm just going to order it with some chocolates and other stuff I need to order and hopefully he won't notice

Elakiya · 03/10/2020 17:18

@Kaybobx The only issue with that is he'll then go and google search it to work out how he can help lol!

NamechangeTTC · 03/10/2020 20:03

Today’s day 3 in a row of smep

candycrush2298 · 03/10/2020 20:11

@Elakiya so glad to hear you are almost at the end!! I am sure you are looking forward to the end of exams for this year.
Oooh that sounds so exciting. Hope you enjoy the food from there as much as I did.

Hahaha poor hubby yeah think he has been spoiled with SMEP and now doesnt know what to do with himself🤣🤣🤣

Awww yeah if not testing OPKs is stressing you out definitely think you should use them again. We want as little stress as possible on this journey!!

@Kaybobx whahahaha OMG that is freaken hilarious!! All day everyday men have the stamina alright us girls not as much lol!!! Omg if I am woken up nicely then maybe depends what part of my sleep cycle I was in LOL!

@Boc86 holy shit i think you have covered your bases with BD then lol!!!

@NamechangeTTC well done!!

NamechangeTTC · 03/10/2020 23:03
