@minster2012 freezing here too, 3 degrees this morning. Ducked into a coffee shop for a hot chocolate!

@Vil10 actually astonished at your friend saying that!! It does feel unfair that some women seem to get all the fertility.

Well we DTD last night first time after the other day when we had the argument and so feeling better about us on the whole now as it was really good sex.

@vil10 forgot to respond to this yday but omg your friend's comment was SO B*TCHY! I would cut back on my interactions with her after that...

My chart today anyone any ideas as I'm not feeling positive. Positive opk 18th it said ovulation 19th but was maybe 20th?

@Kitab41 it's super hard to see on that chart (I can't even make out the dates at the bottom) but you definitely ovulated where the dip was per your temps - ie the day after the blue vertical line claiming to be ovulation. That means you're only 8DPO today?

@Juno231 yeah that's what folk think the same ovulation was the 20th not the 19th even though positive opk 18th can be 24-36hrs after positive opk for egg release well I'm hoping I've caught then has DTD on the 20th so yeah would put me 8dpo. The chart is from my Flo app I noticed it shows every second date a long the bottom 🙈

@Kitab41 tbh it's poor of the app not to recognise ovulation on the 20th! Did you DTD in the run up as well?

Yeah not sure why it estimated the 19th cause I inputted the positive opk on the 18th. I did on the 18th but didn't quite finish all Inside sorry tmi we got carried away 🙈 did on 14th 15th and 20th it's hard as we don't live together so makes it hard for timing but hoping caught on 20th

@Juno231 most of our friends fall into 2 camps/ the once or twice a week max or the others which are like us who are usually def 3 times a week more often than not more (though usually it's once during weekdays and then more at Friday through weekend) there's definitely a split on "normality"

It's cold but sunny here now which is nice but am now sat on our warm ish office doing dogsbody jobs now phones ok again so all good

@Florence13 pleased you had a good session to put you back on track

@Kitab41 sperm can live for upto 5 days I think so even from the 15th them swimmers could have been meeting the egg of their dreams 🥰😋

@Minster2012 thanks hun and I agree with your statement above but we fall into the same category as you.

God I hope so @Minster2012 DTD on the 20th as well so fingers crossed :)

And the 18th but that would have just been precum tmi 🙈

@Minster2012 see my "other" camp of friends are more once every other 2 weeks so OH thinks we're miles ahead . Like loads of my girlfriends absolutely loathe DTD and only ever do it when they feel they have to cause it's been too long. One of my best friends even slept in a separate bed from her OH for 6 months cause they both preferred having a king size bed to themselves lol. And another gives her OH a BJ every two weeks to keep him satisfied but without having to DTD...

Hello ladies, some possible advise needed I am so confused by my body. so I may alter my testing day to Saturday morning if af hasn't arrived, my app says Thursday and my other says Friday. is that OK @Juno231?
Today I am 14dpo, my cycle is 24/25 days. I ovulated on 14th/15th October.
on Sunday evening(11dpo) we dtd and we both noticed light pink cm half way into it, afterwards I wiped and their was some on the tissue. The day after their was a dark brown cm yesterday and today the c as a lighter brown and runny to almost nothing today. I am due to start y period Thursday/Friday this week. I've had a headache for 6 days straight. I've took tests but all negative but I do not believe they are early response ones? . my temp today is 36.8c, the day before was 37c and the day before that 36.9c. does this seem normal? sending baby does to everyone, and fingers crossed for us. xx Hope everyone is well and I will be catch up reading this afternoon on the thread.

@Juno231 oh my god. What on earth. I am speechless 😱🤣

Thanks for tagging me into the new bus. 8 days to testing day! Looking forward to seeing some BFP's from other bus wankers haha xx

@minster2012 thanks for the link! We have booked a private gender scan on Monday as hospital don't allow it. So will 100% buy something as another milestone reached 🥰 Next auction tomorrow 😬😬

@juno231 😳😳 BJ over sex?? Tbf I do love bj but prefer both. I think Im more active than them and thats with OH still being terrified he"ll hurt the baby 🙈

@lucyrp I know this is from aggees ago, but I have a light rain coat from decathalon, mega cheap for running, buuuttt the game changer is sleeves! So removable sleeves in the cycling department, means you can go running then take them off if you get too hot

Hi ladies, thanks for all the support. Just an update for my situation the test was barely even there today so I've had abit of a cry and feel pretty shit. I'm guessing the bleeding I had a while back was the chemical as I've still not bled yet, don't understand why the test got darker but just another way TTC is bollocks! Anyway hope you're all okay xx

@Ladybird345 I'm so sorry to hear that! We're here for you and make sure you take good care of yourself. TTC sucks a$$ xxx

@Ladybird345 I'm sorry you are going through this. How upsetting to have the added confusion. Take care of yourself x

@Ladybird345 so sorry to hear this look after yourself.

@Juno231 have to admit I’m also surprised by your friends I really couldn’t go that long without it.

@Ladybird345 sendings hugs💓

@Juno231 WHAT????? Gosh your friends really???
I mean even if you think that our friends are exaggerating (and we don't cos we do it often cis we enjoy it and even now when we have a child/toddler) then really??? I mean except one of my BIL/SIL who (despite her being stunning & him punching waaaay above his level) she's always been "yeah I can't be arsed with Sex...it's such a hassle" erm but if you fancy each other??? I just don't get it?? I know everyone gets tired but still. They are now the ones that have 2 kids 13 months apart cos the only sex they had was on right days (obviously) so that makes it WORSE, knowing they have such little sex and voila FFS. 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️weird. Don't worry @Juno231 most of us are with you it's lucky you have an understanding bullet!

@Dsr87 that's how it is when AF is on the way for me I'm afraid but 🤞🏻it's not for you

@Joanna1009 you've come into an interesting time, whinging about lack of sex /comparing amount of sex 😂

@blodyn91 how exciting!! Gender eek!! And another auction, is this the one your dad wasn't able to come to? Are you still hammering the exercise btw?

@Ladybird345 oh bollocks sending lots of hugs your way. I said to DH last night about 1 in 4 pregnancies ending in loss and that's not even adding in chemicals and he was astounded. I hope you can take some time it's so hard this TTC bullshit emotionally and physically

On the IVF thread I was on out of about 15 ppl about 7 got BFPs overall, which is better than average odds, a few had extra embryo screening. But last week I didn't say that now, some were meant to be reaching 8 weeks and all but 2 have lost the babies, including twins. It's fucking crazy how we all think getting pregnant, oh that'll be easy. It's truly heartbreaking, I can't even check it cos there's no point, it's not fun like here, it's not supportive for those that remember things said previously about ppl thinking about stopping medication & I don't fit in with my attitude. But it doesn't make it any easier. For my next one I'll just be here ladies and I truly hope (in the nicest possible way) there won't be many of you around and if so, I can bugger off too

So I've noted sore nipples on femometer for the last 5 days and OH just asked me wtf has happened to my boobs as they're huge ..🤷🏼‍♀️

@Minster2012 Ive been following this thread since I joined in Apr/May, still hoping for you all 💜!
Yes dads not allowed, I have his passport, a signed blank cheque 😳 a signed letter saying he is happy for OH to bid and sign the contract and other proof of address. So we can go ahead with him on the phone! Just 🤞🤞🤞 now.

Yep still exercising, I put a post on my IG account about it and the feedback ive had has been amazing, so many girl messaged me privately to say thank and that they have been concerned with exercise and ttc. Im doing about 6 hours a week atm of swim, bike, run, gym. Plus dog walking. Been getting out of breath quicker lately, so sometimes need to slow down.
I did read all the diet posts, I have never dieted and just exercise too much 🙈 cake tastes too good!
