@RBCoxie I haven’t done anything differently this cycle I don’t think? I held off on taking the prenatal vitamins as I heard they can sometimes mess your cycle around?
I will carry on testing but just not sure about DTD as we were trying SMEP 🤷🏼‍♀️ x

MummyToPrince · 20/10/2020 19:23

@BettyM90 my cycles are between 29-31 days... Continue doing every other day and then when you get your peak try do every day for 3 days, I havent DTD enough this month but remember it only takes 1 time x

@BettyM90 ah yeah I've heard that about the vits too - I wondered if you had started/stopped taking them. It could just be a different month for your body - and you may peak later than normal. In terms of DTD, I saw another poster a while ago say that she didn't track anything and her plan was to just DTD every other day from the end of AF to the start of the next and she then got her BFP quickly! Keep positive - you've got this! 💪🏼 x

BettyM90 · 20/10/2020 19:26

@MummyToPrince thank you, sorry for all the questions. I think I need to chill out and just be patient! Not my forte though! 😂
That’s true - I really hope this month is a lucky one for everyone 🤞🏻🤞🏻 x

BellaBella84 · 20/10/2020 19:35

And we wait...

BellaBella84 · 20/10/2020 19:36

In other news,@Supermathsdoc what are you interviewing for?

MummyToPrince · 20/10/2020 19:38

@BettyM90 honestly dont worry about the questions, you should have seen us all last month 😂 one minute we were positive then negative then wasn't testing then we was testing then we was happy then pissed off 😂😂 we are all here to support each other :-) x

@RBCoxie how many days dpo are you
We dtd everyday from the 12th of the month until now, might try and squeeze an extra 2 days in, Flo app and strips said my peak was Friday, but my line was quite strong yesterday aswell 🥴😩

RBCoxie · 20/10/2020 19:50

@Marri1995 I'm 1DPO today so got a long way to go! 😂 I had my peak on Sunday so going to DTD tonight and tomorrow too just for good measure! What DPO are you today? I'd keep testing just to be sure that it's definitely going down and if it doesn't then at least you can catch it and DTD again!

@MummyToPrince absolutely perfect description of last month! 😂

MummyToPrince · 20/10/2020 19:55

@RBCoxie it's exactly how it was 😂 its what I love about this group! I've already checked how today's 1dpo is different to last months 1dpo is.. Last month I had cramps and tender breasts this month at 1dpo I have nothing but wind 😂 x

RBCoxie · 20/10/2020 20:00

@MummyToPrince literally exactly how it was! Ah that's so interesting!! Maybe it will come a bit later on! I'm really glad we wrote it down last month so we can look back on it. I have ridiculously sore nipples but I had it worse yesterday - even my bra up against my nipples was agony yesterday - not as bad today but definitely there. I'm putting it down to a new ovulation symptom 🤷🏼‍♀️ x

Supermathsdoc · 20/10/2020 20:20

@BellaBella84 I’m interviewing for a slightlier fancier version of my current job. They’ve made the job for me really so I don’t know why I’m so nervous, but these things are always a bit daunting ...

@MummyToPrince I have 3 cycles worth of symptom tracking and I’m so glad I did it. It means every day I can look and see how it was before....

@RBCoxie I don’t wanna speak too soon but sore nipples are the one symptom I keep seeing from people who get BFPs....!! That and the elusive ‘I just knew I was pregnant’ / ‘my cat told me I was pregnant’

BellaBella84 · 20/10/2020 20:21

@Supermathsdoc So you'll be superdoopermathsdoc?!

RBCoxie · 20/10/2020 20:42

@Supermathsdoc 'my cat told me I was pregnant' 😂😂 actually laughed out loud at that one! I really hope so - it would be so early though so it has to be something related to ovulation at this stage but it was definitely different to this time last month! x

Supermathsdoc · 20/10/2020 20:58

@BellaBella84 haha yes. I will change my name immediately upon securing the post.

@RBCoxie ok so even though I have an iron will when it comes to not testing early, my weakness is symptom spotting. If anyone saw my google search history they would be mortified. There’s this website (which is probably all crap) where you put in your symptoms and gives the % of people who went on to get BFP and BFN with that symptom. Anyway, it keeps me amused.

Marri1995 · 20/10/2020 21:04

@RBCoxie according to my app I am 3 dpo today, I hope preseed works wonders 95% of the reviews I read upon worked first time round
Anyone used preseed and it’s not worked for them ?

RBCoxie · 20/10/2020 21:10

@Supermathsdoc omg that sounds right up my street! I need a new obsession now I'm not testing! 😂 what's the website?

@Marri1995 yeah I read really good reviews about it too, but tbh I used it because I struggled last month to have any form of fertile CM so I think I'll keep using it even if I don't get a BFP.

Supermathsdoc · 20/10/2020 21:27

@RBCoxie www.countdowntopregnancy.com/early-pregnancy-symptoms/all-early-pregnancy-symptoms.php

It does mostly tell you you’re about to get your period though...(!)

I’ve been using pre-seed (this is my 4th cycle) @Marri1995 I’m not entirely sure why as I’m using a donor so friction (ahem) is not an issue. But when I first tried to work out how to do this whole thing (where do you even start) I saw someone had written a blog and got pregnant first time so I just copied it!

RBCoxie · 20/10/2020 21:40

@Supermathsdoc well, that website is going to entertain me for the TWW! Thanks for sending that on!

MummyToPrince · 20/10/2020 21:51

@RBCoxie I take back what I said, I've just taken my bra off and my boobs are sore 😂 x

@MummyToPrince ahh!! How are you feeling this morning? x

MummyToPrince · 21/10/2020 10:13

@RBCoxie boobs no longer hurt they jusy ache but only on the sides :-/ and light cramping nothing compared to last month lol how are you feeling? X

OP posts:
MummyToPrince · 21/10/2020 10:16

@RBCoxie the light cramps feel like af cramps but light and central not on left or right side x

OP posts:
RBCoxie · 21/10/2020 10:34

@MummyToPrince oh interesting! This time last month I also had light cramping but I have nothing today. Nipples are sensitive but only when touching them - I can actually have clothes up against them now 😂 strangely good mood too - not just about TTC but just in general! Long may that continue! x

MummyToPrince · 21/10/2020 11:06

@RBCoxie strange isn't it, I have barley anything compared to last month, I'm in a good mood too, but no symptoms is a symptom lol x
