Hi ladies,

I’ve been lurking for a few days, just seeing what the deal is, trying to work out some of the terminology used, mostly going to post but then getting scared and carry on lurking haha.

I don’t really have anyone I can talk about the TTC journey with in my real life as we aren’t telling anyone as it stands so I’m hoping maybe I can make a few friends here that I can obsess and stress out with 🤣

I’m currently CD 7 in my first cycle so tracking with OPKs every day right now so that I can get a clearer picture of my cycle each month.

I’m 30 and this will be our 1st,

If anyone has any advice/is in a similar position to me or just wants a natter I’d love to hear from you 😊

Xx

She says Googling cervical positioning @Peachycream 😂

HRP1990 · 16/06/2021 13:12

It sounds like a good sign @Dannii892! I’d still wait until the weekend if you can, especially if the level of (HCG?) doubles every 48 hours!

Dannii892 · 16/06/2021 13:15

@HRP1990 yes I cant cave in now! Saturday I'll do it.. I was reading other threads and some people say that they fmu and the line didn't appear and but did on the smu.. you think it makes a difference? Me planning ahead 😂😂😂

Peachycream · 16/06/2021 13:21

@HRP1990 are you on my phone?! I literally just closed a tab from this morning about cervical position 😂

@Dannii892 I don’t think it matters, I read on the NHS if a test is positive it’ll be positive at any time in the day, but everyone on here seems to swear by FMU?

Ohhh new thread name suggestions everyone?

30ish newbies witching for the best? I really want to get the 🧙‍♀️ in there 😂

KayL1988 · 16/06/2021 13:22

Also @Babyghirl such a good tip about the folate!

Peachycream · 16/06/2021 13:23

I like that one @KayL1988 😂

🧙 the night away?

KayL1988 · 16/06/2021 13:23

Witch day did I ovulate?

PurpleCat88 · 16/06/2021 13:25

Hi ladies ☺️ Wow you’ve all been chatting a lot 🤣

Fingers crossed for everyone who’s hoping to test soon! @Dannii892 - good luck for Saturday (if you can hold out that long!)

Loving all the new thread name suggestions! Should we keep ‘Newbie’ in it so we know it’s our chat? Or are we not newbies anymore 😂

No update from me - I sound like a broken record but I still haven’t had a peak OPK this cycle. CD21 for me.

PurpleCat88 · 16/06/2021 13:27

Newbies DTD to keep the 🧙🧙🧙 away

Only we will understand it - hehe!

HRP1990 · 16/06/2021 13:38

I like @KayL1988 suggestion 😂

“Witch day did I ovulate?” With lots of 🧙🏻‍♀️🧙🏻‍♀️🧙🏻‍♀️ At the end

Peachycream · 16/06/2021 13:40

What about a list of different cheeses? 😂

Brie, Gorgonzola and Camembert

OP posts:
HRP1990 · 16/06/2021 13:40

Ooo or “An OPK a day to keep the 🧙🏻‍♀️ away?”

Peachycream · 16/06/2021 13:41

I didn’t see that one @HRP1990 and @KayL1988 I like that!

Peachycream · 16/06/2021 13:42

“When the 🧙 starts showing the cheese starts flowing”?

OP posts:
Aries491 · 16/06/2021 13:47

I have just been catching up and reading these and crying with laughter at these name selections! Particularly fond of the cheese ones as I love cheese and whenever I get a BFP I will be sad to say adios to some cheeses!

How is everyone doing in their cycle? Good luck @dannii892 for when you test!! Xx

HRP1990 · 16/06/2021 13:56

@Peachycream

“When the 🧙 starts showing the cheese starts flowing”?
Yes 😂 spot on!

Hey @Aries491 how you doing? “I said this in my head like Joey from friends lol”

🧙🏻‍♀️ appeared yesterday so I’m on CD2 sadly! However like you said we still get to enjoy all our food! 🍷🧀

SareBear87 · 16/06/2021 13:58

@Dannii892 how many DPO are you? Sorry if you've mentioned it already! Trying to catch up whilst on lunch 🍱!

Dannii892 · 16/06/2021 14:00

@Aries491 @PurpleCat88 thank you ladies! ❤

@peachycream yes that's what I thought! Had no idea what fmu was for ages lol!

I like when the 🧙‍♀️ starts showing the cheese keeps flowing! Honestly love all the names though!
Newbrie fetus canotbere another 🧙‍♀️?

Dannii892 · 16/06/2021 14:01

@SareBear87 that's okay - there's a lot of material lol
I'm 11Dpo today x

SareBear87 · 16/06/2021 14:01

Also loving the new names! I think something with the 🧙‍♀️ in is 100% needed!!

Aries491 · 16/06/2021 14:02

@HRP1990 and I heard it in my head like Joey from friends lol! I am good thanks sorry to hear AF showed her face but fingers crossed and baby dust for the next cycle. I am currently CD25 so based on my static smiley on CD20 I assume 4/5 DPO. Not much to report been a bit sniffly, dull cramping down below, some creamy CM (sorry tmi) and the odd bit of fuzzy head. Although I feel quite bloated as well but that could be anything as I know it is too early for much to have happened if it has. Let's see what the rest of the wait has in store, AF due by 24th so we will see xx

SareBear87 · 16/06/2021 14:05

@Dannii892 that sounds very promising!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Also totally love the Newbrie Camembert another 🧙‍♀️

😂😂
Honestly this thread keeps me going!

Babyghirl · 16/06/2021 14:06
