@MamaSJ15 I know! I'm feeling optimistic again..god knows why..surely there must be one good egg left?!

@MrsCristiano it's good to feel optimistic 😊 I guess I'm in a similar position too, starting to feel like my body is trying to get back into a rhythm.
I ordered the easy@home opks ready for this cycle so I can do a proper track this time! I'm just hoping it's not gonna take too much longer, the age gap is getting bigger and bigger! DD will already have turned 4 and that's if I was to be pregnant this cycle.

Wow @pocketbunny sounds like you've really been through it!

@MamaSJ15 covid test today already really light so I think I must have had it a good few days already. Was bloody knackered Thursday / Friday so makes sense! Reckon I'll be testing negative tomorrow or Tuesday already.
Sorry af has got you hard this time!

@MrsCristiano loads of good eggs!! I'm rooting for you both this cycle ladies

@MamaSJ15 did the same myself last night. Ordered a box of 40 OPKs why so many I have no idea 😅

Was asleep by 9pm last night. Think my super stressful busy week broke me..4 days this week and taking DD for a long overdue day out on Saturday 😊

@Tropicana1 oh that's good news then. AF easing a bit now thankfully. It wasn't heavy as such, just painful. Since having DD I get a horrible pressure feeling down there during AF.

@MrsCristiano haha I literally did the same thing, think it's a box of 40 with 10 pregnancy tests also! Think I'm gonna go mad this cycle make sure I catch the peak properly 😂
I should have gone to bed early last night, struggling to sleep because of the heat recently, so glad it's starting to cool today!

@MamaSJ15 lord I hope mine doesn't come with pregnancy tests..those wee fuckers are too tempting. I should be due next AF in the middle of Barcelona week..tempted to wait until I'm home. Will more than likely be sending DH to every Spanish pharmacy 😅

@pocketbunny my gosh you've been through a lot!! I hope things improve for you 💜
@MrsCristiano very jealous of your 9pm bedtime 😆I adore the sunshine but am glad the temp is down today as I've been hardly sleeping lately - feel wrecked! Ooh Barcelona - lovely! It's a gorgeous city.
@MamaSJ15 good luck with catching the peak this month!

@MrsCristiano you should! It'll be good for you to be busy and keep your mind off TTC for a bit!

I bought 100 cheapie pregnancy tests last month to see me through months more testing but then got my positive so maybe the ridiculous number of opk/test purchasing is a good omen 🤣

@Tropicana1 I think it'll take more than that🤣😩 so CD 5 yesterday and my OPK was like medium dark?? and I'm feeling like fertile CM today? Swear to god if I ovulate now I'm out already

@Tropicana1 😆I thought I was bad, I bought 25 cheapies and am now like 'ooh, I could keep testing every day?' - haha no, that way madness definitely lies (for me anyway...)
@MrsCristiano If you are that's crazy! What days did you ovulate on the last couple of months?

Might explain the random early miscarriages though..will keep at the tests just to see, I didn't do them enough last month and DTD (DH will be happy with that at least) 😅

@alwaysseeingstars see I don't really know I didn't do them enough. Got a high on day 11 and 12. I'll investigate this 🧐

@MrsCristiano it may just have to be a very busy 10 days or so of DTD 😂

@MrsCristiano oh wow that would be really early. I definitely want to start testing earlier this time round too. I'm currently CD5 and still have AF bleeding so will only start testing when bleeding has stopped.

@MamaSJ15 so it's exactly the same tonight which makes me feel a bit more normal. CD6 today and seduction is on the cards god help me. DH in bad mood 😒, Just stopped bleeding yesterday I hope one on us gets preggo before the thread hits 1000 😂

@MrsCristiano 😂 I hope so!
I've had a bit of a down day today. I've not been sleeping well because of the heat, my anxiety is trying to rear it's ugly head again, I feel like I'm just waiting for the next 'big thing' to happen in our lives. Were waiting to get pregnant, trying to move house (not having much luck on the rental market), and I'm just kinda feeling like things are a bit stale, it's just the same all the time. After being in my job for 13 years, I enjoy it but it can get a bit boring at times!

@MamaSJ15 it's absolutely Baltic in NI now at night. I was up every hour last night having weird dreams then DS was out and I don't rest when they are out. I hear you on the job front good money but oh so boring at times. I'm off tomorrow thank f**k. One day at a time lovely. Do you need to move out urgently?

@MrsCristiano is it?! It's been so hot at night here. It's literally just lashed it down for about 5 mins (for the first time in a long time!) And it's been cooler today but the house is still pretty warm tonight.
Ahh nice, enjoy your day off! No, not at all, we've been looking for a house in my home town because it's where our DD goes to school and childcare is family and they live there, it's only 10-15 mins away but it would be so much easier. We've been looking for about 9 months now.

@MrsCristiano I could do with some of that cold I'm literally sweating 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hope you ladies don't mind me hovering around 😂 all still feels very early, plus I'm fully invested in you both getting bfps asap

@Tropicana1 not at all ❤️ I was just posting on a miscarriage thread about my experience of the January birth thread. They are so busy!! And I posted when I first found out on holiday in the January thread that I had a previous loss and someone was weird with me saying oh you need to have a previous loss to be noticed. And it made me feel horrible. So I just watched it till I had a confirmed miscarriage then posted the outcome. Hormones run high in pregnancy so I can't be too annoyed xx how are you feeling? Xx

@Tropicana1 of course, we don't want you to leave us. I feel like I've made a connection with you ladies on this thread 😊
@MrsCristiano some people just don't think about what they say do they? They can be so harsh sometimes.

@MamaSJ15 when I had covid I was reading all sorts and people were literally talking on the same ttc thread then moved to the pregnancy one's saying oh I think I recognise your name. I mean literally what?! I'd recognise anyone of your usernames I'd be like HI!!!...remember we shared our charts ?! Can't wait til u start your OPKs you'll be amazed at the difference !!❤️

@MrsCristiano I used to chat on a few threads but I struggle to keep up if there's too many people on them 😂 I do work 8 hours a day and have a toddler, can't be on here 24/7 haha. It's nice that this one is a bit smaller and we can chat better.
How many times a day would you do OPK?
