Hi guys! I believe I ovulated today (CD14) after I got a static smiley on my OPK yesterday evening, this was after a flashy smiley in the morning! We DTD last night and now comes the start of the dreaded two week wait! Does any one fancy driving themselves crazy with symptom spotting and trying to to take a test too early with me? 🤣

Congratulations everyone on your positive OPKs 🤗🤗 I am crossing my fingers for you all in the 2WW. I started using the OPKs yesterday as I’m meant to ovulate next Monday so I’m keeping an eye on it in case it arrives early 👌 @ACMJ - so sorry to hear about your MC! Hopefully the investigations might shed some light on everything?

BCM2021 · 08/03/2021 14:36

@teateaandcoffee great thanks, didn’t expect to get a smiley so early on! But not complaining!!

BCM2021 · 08/03/2021 14:39

@teateaandcoffee sorry didn’t see earlier message, this is only second month, came off my pill Jan! So not long at all , funny I thought I would be really causal about it, my partner is the one who is more desperate, but it seems to have sent me nuts!

LKB89 · 08/03/2021 15:37

@teateaandcoffee I'm so glad we are all similar in times, we can drive ourselves crazy and symptom check together 🤣

@Intrigued2020 hopefully won't be long till you see yours ❤️

@BCM2021 static smily! Grab your man 🎉🎉🎉

BCM2021 · 08/03/2021 15:48

@LKB89 🤣🤣 will be!!!!

teateaandcoffee · 08/03/2021 17:13

@Intrigued2020 at least we have some of the tww together!

@BCM2021 lol, no I think you're doing the right thing. We did the whole 'let's be casual and see what happens' and were probably doing it at the wrong times for months! I always try to be casual about it but really it means can't ddt without wondering if I'll get pregnant haha

BCM2021 · 08/03/2021 18:08

@teateaandcoffee yeh exactly! It baffles me though, only finished my period 2 days ago! Wouldn’t of though about testing until next week, so glad I asked and saw your post. Although I’m kicking myself for not testing yesterday! How long have you been trying if u don’t mind me asking ?x

teateaandcoffee · 08/03/2021 22:53

@BCM2021 It will be a year in May, seems like a long time but it's gone pretty quickly.

BCM2021 · 09/03/2021 08:30

@teateaandcoffee let’s hope this month is the one!

teateaandcoffee · 09/03/2021 08:33

Static smiley for 2 days, check.
DTD every day since flashing smiley, check.

Now it's the tww 🥴 I'm testing roughly next Friday, anyone testing similar time?

LKB89 · 09/03/2021 09:08

@teateaandcoffee a year 😭 that does feel long! I'm on month 3 and already losing my sh*t and want to give up if this time round doesn't work 🤣 I really hope this month is yours, the month of Mother's Day 💕

My Static Smily was Sunday & Monday! DTD Thursday, Saturday, Sunday & Monday! Might one more time for good luck tonight but I'm knackered 🤣

I may test with you on Friday, see if I can drink or not 🤣 what tests do you use?

I feel like I had SO much more EWCM this month than I've ever noticed before so I'll hoping that's a good sign!

If I get caught next month my 'due date' will be Xmas day ffs 🤦🏻‍♀️

teateaandcoffee · 09/03/2021 11:40

@LKB89 lol I know, I keep thinking I will get pregnant just when the pubs are opening and everyone is partying 🤦🤦🤦😂

A year is a long time, but it took me 6 months to get pregnant with first so I'm not too stressed about it, I'm going to book in with doctors after this month though just to start process. I'm a lot less stressed this time round, I think that is how it is, trying for baby number one is always more nerve wracking!

Fingers crossed for this month, having a baby over Christmas Day would be interesting 😂 not ideal 😂

LKB89 · 09/03/2021 11:49

@teateaandcoffee ahh you already have children, that's good because you know you 'work' if you get me! 😆 would be nerve wracking for the first try to be a year I guess, like you say! Keep on going 💪🏻

I said that! I'm the only one out of a close group of 5 couples that doesn't have a baby/pregnant. Me and OH have loved our us time, traveling a lot and partying. Now they've all popped the sprogs they can party come summer I'll (hopefully) be pregnant! Not complaining, had my fair share over the years 🤣 just typical 😉

BCM2021 · 09/03/2021 12:36

DTD yesterday on static and will do today on static, none before as I was still on! I prob be 10dpo next Friday, I promised myself no crazy testing this time 🙈 least there’s a few of us around similar time!

LKB89 · 09/03/2021 14:47

@BCM2021 actually hate this TWW 🤣 next Friday seems forever away!

BCM2021 · 09/03/2021 15:14

@LKB89 oh it does! Don’t haven’t any tests in the house & i am not getting any until it’s time, can’t be trusted!

BCM2021 · 11/03/2021 06:18

Help! So got solid smiley on Monday day 8, then stayed solid for Tuesday.
Today out of curiosity as day 8 seemed early I take another test, solid smiley again ?!!! What’s going on? Any advice appreciated!

LKB89 · 11/03/2021 07:30

@BCM2021 oh I don't know, I didn't test after my statics I just left it 😫
Maybe the hormones are still super high so it will give that static? Sorry I'm not much help, get DTD again tonight to be sure x

BCM2021 · 11/03/2021 07:52

@LKB89 yeh I did last month too but as this smiley was so early I thought I would test again not expecting to see another smiley lol! Ok thanks and yes I had better!!

Babyboom93 · 11/03/2021 08:05

Hi Ladies, hoping I can join! I'm around 3/4dpo at the moment and for the last two nights I've been constantly up and down to the toilet needing a wee. Between the hours of 10.30pm and 7am I've had around 6/7 wees through the night! Anyone else experienced this? Is this normal a few days after ovulation? We're TTC baby #1 and this is our first month trying after tracking ovulation. Smile

teateaandcoffee · 11/03/2021 09:05

@BCM2021 is it the clear blue advanced kit you're using? I think it just stays like that as I thought you couldn't reuse the reader part for a second cycle, you have to buy another kit. Like, it's now done. I've not tried it myself, that's what I thought it would do.

@Babyboom93 fingers crossed for this month! When are you planning on testing?

I am trying to hang on maybe until this time next week! This TWW just drags! X

LKB89 · 11/03/2021 09:17

@Babyboom93 welcome! Sending lots of baby dust your way ✨💫
I am also 3DPO so I'm in the same boat as you, can't say I have a single symptom yet, however my boobs are slightly tender which I'm sure is just the progesterone anyhow, and this morning I woke up ravenous!!! That's about it, probably totally unrelated mind 🤣

Yes I have been waking up at around 5am really hungry too! I've been cramping a lot too and I've been a little gassy!! Blush hopefully some BFPs for us in the next 2 week!!

BCM2021 · 11/03/2021 09:40

@teateaandcoffee yes clear blue advanced 4 fertile days one, oh really? I only used the holder part once last month, I though you could re use the holder part multiple times/ cycles with new sticks? If it’s a new one it’s time it’s a rip
Off 🤣
