I’m almost 100% convinced I’m out now!

Really really hoping a December baby is the one. Anyone else?

In fact I'm 100% sure I'm out now. Only DTD once in fertile week. Someone pass the wine

BiscuitLover3678 · 16/03/2022 19:16

What would everyone’s would be due dates?

@RMS0209 yes I thought one more day may help but a whole week might be excessive! Yay for statics on Monday!!

It’s all such a process isn’t it with TTC- ovulation and fertile windows then two week waits and wanting to test every day. Life was so much simpler before TTC šŸ™ˆ

Charl881 · 16/03/2022 20:46

@Chanel05 I’ve not the lost plot yet but that’s because I’m only 4dpo. I’ll be joining you in the crazy club soon enough. This two weeks is dragging even more than normal for me.

Charl881 · 16/03/2022 20:47

@MrsN3 I think as long as you DTD on peak day and day after you font have to do it all week. Best time is actually before your peak. You could just do it once this week to cover yourself in case you ovulate late.

RMS0209 · 16/03/2022 22:28

@MrsN3 will power if you manage all week šŸ˜‚
least we caught our peak & OV day... we can keep each other company the next 2 weeks! That's me just home so I doubt we'll get another dance in tonight... see if it works 😃
IF I am here again next month I think I definitely want to try the Smep method x

BiscuitLover3678 · 17/03/2022 06:42

Didn’t DTD on peak day or anything after :(

Had planned to do smep method but we all got sick so everything went wrong.

Next cycle the due date would be like 28/29 December so not ideal tbh. Almost tempted to skip it but not sure I can do that.

RMS0209 · 17/03/2022 11:59

@BiscuitLover3678 no skipping!
i am thinking of doing SMEP next month too, can't harm to try I guess x

MrsGrealish · 17/03/2022 12:45

I've got random cramping. At 5dpo. Way too early for implantation šŸ˜•

Bubblesandballoons · 17/03/2022 14:47

You could of ovulated day of peak @MrsGrealish, so you would be 6dpo then, so could be implantation. I have gone off food, which is a common first sign for me, but I am on antibiotics, so its most likely just them making me feel off šŸ˜‚. Gotta love the tww and how it makes you question everything your body does.

MrsGrealish · 17/03/2022 17:14

I know it's crazy @Bubblesandballoons this time next week will know one way or other xx

RMS0209 · 17/03/2022 17:52

Can I ask, do you guys do anything special or worth adding in for next month IF I HAVE TO or just dancing on fertile days?

Charl881 · 17/03/2022 20:38

5dpo for me too and I don’t know why but I’ve absolutely convinced myself I’m not pregnant this month. I just don’t feel it which I know is ridiculous as it’s so early on.

I think in my mind because I know I’m skipping next month I’ve already started thinking ahead to a 2023 baby.

Obviously will still probably end up obsessively testing.

MrsGrealish · 17/03/2022 21:11

Oh no you don't cycle buddy..keep the faith @Charl881

Charl881 · 18/03/2022 10:42

Thanks @MrsGrealish I woke up feeling sick this morning so obviously now swung the other way šŸ˜‚

How is everyone else doing, is anyone going to be testing soon?

F03t · 18/03/2022 11:23

@MrsN3

How many days around ovulation do you all DTD? My clear blue smiley static face was on Monday so DTD then and Tuesday- so I keep trying for the rest of the week? The MaybeBaby app shows percentages of chance to conceive and gender possibility until Saturday but I thought it was only on day of ovulation you could catch? It’s all so confusing!
Hiya! I wonder this too. Trying the SMEP method again this month (well half way through, expecting/thinking it will be peak tomorrow or Sun) - and part of me wonders why it says to DTD every other day pre ovulation, when I thought there was practically zero chance of conceiving?

Feeling a bit anxious at the thought of 3 days in a row from peak (if tomorrow). Does anyone else DTD that much, or am I missing a one-time wonder trick? haha

MrsGrealish · 18/03/2022 12:45

@F03t I think pre ovulation is peak time because once you ovulate the egg only lives for about 12 hours. I could be wrong though

I'm really nervous about testing early. I don't think I could deal with bfn. I think I'll test when I'm feeling really off.

Bubblesandballoons · 18/03/2022 14:25

Ok, so still off food and chocolate, so decided on a whim this afternoon to take a frer whilst ds napped after a 3 hour hold expecting a bfn. Only 6dpo, 7dpo at most if I ovulated day of peak. Sure I see a faint line 😬. Now I’m annoyed at myself for testing early 🤣

Charl881 · 18/03/2022 14:44

@Bubblesandballoons DEFINITELY a line!!! That’s so exciting. LH tests aren’t always accurate so it may be you ovulated earlier. Keeping everything crossed for you, please tell me you have more tests in or on the way!

Charl881 · 18/03/2022 14:46

@F03t I’ve not done SMEP yet for that reason, it just seems excessive. I would be willing to give it a try in the future if I was getting desperate.

This is like me. I could early rest from tomorrow but don’t think I could take a negative atm :( and it almost definitely will be. Saying that, knowing me I’ll probably do one anyway.

Omg congrats @Bubblesandballoons!

@Bubblesandballoons omg!! That's a line alright! So happy for you xx

Bubblesandballoons · 18/03/2022 15:23

Thanks @Charl881 @MrsGrealish @BiscuitLover3678. Now absolutely bricking it that it will end in another chemical or early miscarriage. My decision to take a test to get it out my system so I could just forget about it for a bit has definitely backfired šŸ˜‚. Hoping to see some more bfps in the next few days šŸ¤žšŸ»

Charl881 · 18/03/2022 20:58

@Bubblesandballoons when will you test again?

Bubblesandballoons · 18/03/2022 21:23

@Charl881 going to test Sunday as working tomorrow, hopefully that way I shall know for sure either way. What about you? When are your testing?
