@lollipop25 haha I can't keep up with them either!! Your body knows best, ewcm is probably the best sign anyway!!
We've DTD every night but missed tonight as husband was feeling the pressure lol, think he's burnt himself out the past week🤣 hopefully covered ovulation anyway but sure we'll see!

@Lexber I know the feeling, I'm due a botox top up..like desperately need!! 28 looking 58, il blame the TTC stress! Decided il get it if AF shows her face as long as I can get a last min appointment! The joys!

Well I had my implant removed last month, then had my period 2 weeks later, my periods are always pretty regular with the implant... I've been using the clear blue digital ovulation tests, I had 8 days of high fertility before I got my static smiley meaning peak 2 days ago, dtd at least once a day since I got my first flashing smiley which my oh is loving hahahah🤷🏽‍♀️😂 and im already going mad, I can not wait to test.. this is going to be a looooong two weeks 😂 My first child was conceived the first cycle of us trying so hoping second baby is the same but I know now I’m a bit older etc that might not be the case, trying not to get my hopes up too much but it’s so hard, it’s such an exciting time, my first baby I never tracked ovulation or joined anything like this so this is all so new to me. It’s so lovely to see all the support on here!

Congratulations to everyone on here that has got their positive this month 👶

And sending lots of love a baby dust to people that need it for their next cycle ❤️

Af turned up this morning 2 days early. 😔

@abbs1sorry to hear that! It can feel so disappointing. xx

@twochews78 im gutted. Seems my cycle is now varying from 25-30 days so no idea when i ovulate anymore which is really frustrating.

BFN this morning- annoyed with myself for testing so early as only 10dpo but then relieved as can have micro blading lol

I'm still warm/sicky a little and have aching boobs 🤷🏽‍♀️ possibly just too early to test as not due til Sat but we shall see. Atleast I can go tomorrow and know in my mind I checked first and not worry about it

Morning May gang, sorry to see a few BFNs from you this morning ☹️

I've still got flashy smiley face on cb and OH is now struggling with the pressure. We never really dtd often (couple of times a month maybe) which suited us fine, so obviously trying every 2/3 days with unpredictable ovulation is taking its toll. I'm trying to be patient and kind but at the same time I think...I buy all the sticks, wee on the sticks, track everything and all he has to do is show up and so I can't help but feel a little frustrated. We're never going to be one of those couples that can pounce on each other every day so I think we've got a long road ahead...it's only cycle 2 but can see it being an issue if it takes a while. I'm just a massive control freak and so it's difficult that this isn't something I can fix/control.

Anyway apologies for my little rant on a Tuesday morning!

@gimmeavino same here. We only managed to DTD once on the morning of my peak this month and no more 😒

And that was last Tuesday!

Sorry to hear that @abbs1 it really is disappointing when AF shows, even if you say every month you won't get your hopes up :(!! I always allow myself one day to feel upset and a lot of self pity and a lot of chocolate and wine and then new cycle begins so fingers crossed!

@Lexber deffo not out yet at only 10DPO, It's so hard to not test even tho you know they is a high percent you'll see a negative! I'm 2DPO today and already trying to think when I'm going to start testing! I told myself I would relax this month ! Haha

@gimmeavino I totally know your frustrations! I'm on cycle 6 and at the start it did seem abit forced I know with my OH he thought it would happen so quickly! So now the months keep going without a BFP he is much more eager to DTD as both would love a little one! I think with my OH it was him becoming more knowledgable around ttc, I think he thought one time only and that is it pregnant in first month if only it was that easy!!

@gimmeavino we've had similar issues with pressure to perform, and I can kinda understand why, it's all so unromantic and non spontaneous with TTC isn't it. I've tried to be all chill and reassuring about it but inside was so disappointed about missing our chance. We've tried to DTD more the rest of the month too to take some of the focus away from FW as I think knowing the exact dates were adding to the pressure on DH.

I'm approx 10 / 11 dpo and have been feeling a bit nauseous, which is kinda exciting as I never have any symptoms! Prob my mind playing tricks on me but you never know, I'm trying to wait until Thursday to test ..trying trying trying

I know @purpleskyssssss that's why I'm so annoyed that I tested but I was stressing myself that if I am and I have my brows done could I cause harm.. so atleast I know I'm not currently so peace of mind...

I'm the same @dunkedbiscuit I feel really rubbish today and so tired. My boobs are uncomfortable and I'm about to have my lunch break at work (WFH) and I'm having a sleep as struggling to focus but had a great night sleep last night albeit weird dreams recently!!
Think I'm just going to have an easy day today - I've been working from my bed so far this morning with a sleepy kitten for company!
I might even treat myself and go downstairs after my nap 😴

There’s definitely something extremely addictive about taking a pregnancy test! My app “Ovia” tells me I have 19 days until I should take a test, I havnt even ovulated yet haha!! It’s nuts isn’t it! At least we are all the same here!
@gimmeavino me and my husband rarely dtd until TTC I see why people have kids when they are newly together it’s all the dtd when your in the honeymoon phase, when your 15 yrs married it’s not really top of the list!
We are still in the first phew cycles so he’s not lost interest yet, but I was quite cross last cycle when the pubs opened again and he went out and had a “few beers” and fell asleep.....on my peak day!!! Not ideal!!xx

I am approx 12dpo today. I don't have many symptoms other than a sore head and needing a wee every 10 mins 🤣 and being super tired. Compared to the last few months, I am feeling great before AF is due! The last 3 cycles have made me really sick and I have had terrible cramps! So im feeling quite positive as this month is different! But then I wonder if my body is just regulating and AF is on its way but not as fierce as prior! It doesn't feel like its on it way! Its a viscous cycle. Trying not to get my hopes up but I just feel different! 🤷🏿‍♀️🤞🏿

@Missy95 it really is a vicious cycle!! One minute your thinking maybe this is a symptom and then you doubt yourself!

I do hear many people say they have no symptoms of AF/ Pregnancy and they end up with a BFP so fingers crossed for you! I think you've done great not having tested at 12DPO and having all those symptoms!

@purpleskyssssss aw thank you. Its been hard but not buying any has helped haha! Ive just had a bit of light brown, watery spotting (tmi sorry). Im reaaaally hoping AF isn't coming early! Im not due till Thursday! Never had spotting before a period! The body loves to play tricks apparently 😢 x

Fingers crossed for you! This is me every month. I get so excited at the smallest sign of pregnancy (today for instance, have some cramping, but AF is about 5 days out so hoping it's implantation symptoms). Unfortunately it hasn't been good news for me yet, but good vibes coming your way!

@Missy95 All the good vibes to you!

@eternallywaiting and to you too! Im really hoping I have some kind of implantation bleeding going on. Feeling a bit annoyed at my body otherwise 🤣 x

Can I join?. Had MMC early April, ERPC 20 April. Hopefully first period end next week. Opks were positive last week

@ChickPR @purpleskyssssss @dunkedbiscuit @Willow1982 thank you for your replies - as much as I wish nobody struggled with this sort of thing it's reassuring to know I'm not alone - all such a journey isn't it and I'm just trying to not make matters worse by going on and on about it to him 😂 we will get there

Hello everyone!! According to the app I am 2dpo and i am cramping so much the past 2 days and feel nauseous but i had the sticky clear mucus a week ago which is usually a sign of ovulation is it not? I have only been having ttc a week now, 1st cycle. I surely couldnt be pregnant already... i have pcos as well. Ugh i feel so stressed already but know its too early to take a test!

I can’t help but think this whole conception thing would be a lot easier if I felt more ... motivated to ahem..... you know..... regularly! Wouldn’t have to track ovulation etc! But hey who has energy for that! ;)
