Sorry to hear AF has showed up @Rose253 here's to next cycle and lots of September babies 🤞🏻x

Merry Christmas everyone. Hope everyone had a wonderful day yesterday.
We entered our next fertile period yesterday and despite being exhausted did manage to dtd. We used pre seed for the first time. Felt like I was basting myself like a turkey sorry tmi 😂

Geemmm · 26/12/2021 10:47

Merry Christmas everyone - I hope you all have a lovely day with your nearest and dearest!

Fingers crossed this fertile period for you @Theneverendingcleaningcycle 🤞🏻 sending you lots of sticky vibes!

Our next fertile period starts on Wednesday according to my app. I'm not going to check ovulation this month and just go with the flow. Think I'm putting too much pressure on us both at the moment. Hoping this will help chill us out x

So aparently it's ovulation day today according to my app. I've not gotten any ovulation tests. I'll try them next month if we need to.
Did the deed this morning but didn't yesterday (well we tried but it didn't have a happy ending) so hoping today and tommrow is enough.
Trying not to stress as much this month. Everyone around us is catching covid so feeling like that's inevitable too.
How's everyone else doing?

Geemmm · 29/12/2021 11:30

@Theneverendingcleaningcycle I've got my fingers crossed for u mrs🤞🏻How you feelings this month?

I said I wasn't going to test or anything this month and obviously I'm a liar and incapable of just trying to chill out. I bought the easy@home opk instead of bankrupting myself every time I am in sainsburys 😂. Took one today says I am not quite at peak yet - my app has me down for ovulation on the 2nd anyways.

I also got a thermometer to start temping - anyone else do this? Feel like I'm clutching at straws now. X

Theneverendingcleaningcycle · 29/12/2021 11:57

I'm feeling hopeful. No idea why. I'd love to catch this month just because I'd be able to announce it to my dd who will be 7 in a couple of months and has been waiting paiently for years to become a sister. 😂

Dfiance and I had a talk the other night and decided we were going to give it another 8 ish months and then if still nothing we are going to throw our hands up and look at all our options.

Hi all. I hope you’ve had a good Christmas? I got my peak OPK yesterday afternoon and I think I must have ovulated overnight as my BBT this morning shot up.

We were able to DTD on the 23rd but that will have been too early for this cycle. Was with family 24-26th but then did it once on the 27th, twice yesterday and once this morning! DH up for doing it again before bed too…

I am absolutely desperate to catch this month because otherwise it’s time to go through lots more tests, HyCoSy etc. Also keen to catch this month as we’ve DTD so much over the past couple of days! Surely one of them has to get through 😅

I didn't get my BFP until 15 DPO! Don't give up x

Geemmm · 30/12/2021 17:45

How we doing ladies? Hope everyone is good!

Does anyone use the easy@home OPKs and can tell me if u rate them? I bought some this cycle just because they are much cheaper and I feel like it's not really changing each day? I have lots of EWCM, sore boobs and twinges where I would usually be showing peak on other OPKs and I'm not getting it with them. Obviously still DTD as I usually do over fertile window but like to know when ovulation is 100% peak for TWW.

Following on from the OPKs has anyone used the pg tests from easy@home ? Getting a bit para that they might not be good?

Decaffe · 30/12/2021 18:11

Absolutely rate both the OPK and pregnancy tests from easy at home @Geemmm. Do you use the PreMom app to take photos of and internet the OPKs? The pregnancy tests have a sensitivity of 10iu so only a little bit less sensitive than FRERs, and twice as sensitive as supermarket tests.

Decaffe · 30/12/2021 18:12

Take photos of and interpret that should say!

@Decaffe I haven't no I've just been using my glow app - is pre mom app better for them?
Decaffe · 30/12/2021 19:32

It’s the same company so they’re designed to work together. It’s so easy, just take a photo of the strip after five minutes, it will interpret and record it and find your peak. Smile

Geemmm · 30/12/2021 22:36

@Decaffe brilliant thank you! That app picked them up so much better than the app I was using!

Aww no! Did you dtd yesterday? I would today as well. You've still got a chance:D
Sassy144 · 02/01/2022 08:23

@Rose253 don't the ovulation tests show when you're about to ovulate, rather than when you are - so I'd say if you dtd when it's positive and even the day after you're good! Hopping on this thread if that's okay, I am about 3/4 dpo and keeping my fingers crossed but I think we went a bit early with dtd so we'll see..tww is so hard!

@Rose253 I think you've covered your bases nicely. Fingers crossed.

@Sassy144 hi 👋 welcome to the 2WW I'm not 2dpo and it's so hard!

@Theneverendingcleaningcycle thank you! It's so hard not to symptom spot isn't it, even when we know it's way too early 🙈

So hard. I was feeling sick before lunch.. think I was just hungry. I'm trying not to over think things this month like previous ones but it is so hard.

BiscuitLover3678 · 02/01/2022 13:24
