@mummatara @LuckyMoonstone thanks ladies. Time to start the TWW countdown 😬

mummatara · 28/07/2022 13:04

@Astar21 I'm already being bad at not waiting for AF and working out a date for 10dpo 😂

Astar21 · 28/07/2022 13:14

@mummatara yep I've done that too 🤣 what date does that take you to? At 9dpo it's our wedding anniversary so kind of tempted to test then, but it's early and if it is bfn I'll be sad, so maybe I should wait

mummatara · 28/07/2022 13:22

@Astar21 10DPO is the 6th AF is due the 8th I have quite a busy weekend happening so I might be able to hold off until the Monday but I doubt it 😆 Aww that would be a lovely gift but I would be the same about being hesitant at 9DPO like you say would probably be unlikely to have a BFP that early. See how you feel on the day though

Astar21 · 28/07/2022 13:47

@mummatara the temptation is a struggle 😂 that's good you'll be busy though! Yes that's what I'm thinking. Last time I had implantation bleed at 8dpo so we'll see what happens!

theblueflowers · 28/07/2022 14:02

@LuckyMoonstone I actually find waiting for ovulation more stressful than the TWW when you aren't sure when ovulation is going to be. Sounds like things are happening for you though x

LuckyMoonstone · 28/07/2022 14:14

@theblueflowers so do I! I love it when ovulation is over 😂

mummatara · 28/07/2022 14:26

@theblueflowers I'm with you on that one! I'm looking forward to not having the dip anything in my wee for a week or so 😆 what a treat

LuckyMoonstone · 28/07/2022 15:15

@mummatara I’m looking forward to not having sex 🤣🤣

mummatara · 28/07/2022 15:36

@LuckyMoonstone 😂😂😂 yep I'm with you on that one too we managed to DTD three days in a row because those bloody opks didn't like up with my every other day schedule 🙄 I said to him last night don't worry I'll leave you alone for a few days now he was like yea I don't think I've got anything left in there 🤣 sexy!

mummatara · 28/07/2022 15:36

@LuckyMoonstone and by few days I mean at least a week 🤣

bunnykins123 · 28/07/2022 16:18

@mummatara over a week in our case! It's exhausting stuff this ttc business 😂

Skylark1990 · 28/07/2022 16:48

Hey all, lots to catch up on!

Glad to hear lots of you for your peak and managed to get the DTD in 🤭😉 I agree, once ovulation has been it's slightly more relaxing for a few days at least...

Good to hear a few others also on progesterone or would be from a BFP... Hopefully we can share tips one day... I've heard through the back door is less messy!

@LuckyMoonstone I was going to ask, do you normally get a peak? I've heard of some women having v v v short peaks so it's basically impossible to get it on the opk. Maybe that's the case for you?? All the other signs sound really promising!

@Mabelledox attaching two of my charts. One is from a few months ago (no bfp) and one is the current one.

No idea if bfp yet but I'm still thinking it's unlikely this cycle, no symptoms really at 8dpo! I've had potentially some mild cramping today but I can't figure out if it's just other sort of pain / stiffness after yoga on Tues... I just don't know. But my boobs aren't sore. I'm still breastfeeding my DD and that's always been my first concrete sign, when my nipples start to hurt. Nothing so far! I guess we will wait and see ..

Skylark1990 · 28/07/2022 16:50

Sorry here are the charts @Mabelledox . Ovulation is predicted to be the day where the red lines cross over. X

@Skylark1990 yeah I do! Always in the evening. But I guess not every month is necessarily the same

MrsCristiano · 28/07/2022 18:44

After assuming I got a peak yesterday tested after work today and it's just as dark..I'm gonna have to DTD again aren't I ? I really hoped it was over 😭

bunnykins123 · 28/07/2022 20:03

@MrsCristiano arghhhhh do you have it in you?! I say got for it, you'll regret it otherwise!

@LuckyMoonstone I always get my peak in the evening! Literally can have a squinters in the morning and boom, hello peak at 9pm!

mummatara · 28/07/2022 20:26

@MrsCristiano I'm with @bunnykins123 on this one I think if you don't you'll regret it 🙈 don't worry after today just say bugger it and don't do anymore opks they won't get you in anymore trouble 😆 and yes it's totally exhausting 😳 I don't know how that 50 shades chick managed it 🤣🤣🤣

FfayeN · 28/07/2022 21:23

@mummatara @bunnykins123 @MrsCristiano you ladies have had me cracking up all day!!!
Get your leg over girl, one last go for it!! Then rest! It really is exhausting isn't it!! I'm a big fan of a baby making quickie...sod the romance 🤣. Fingers crossed for you🤞🏼 xx

FfayeN · 28/07/2022 21:25

@LuckyMoonstone I'm with you...my OPKs used to peak within 24hrs and go back again, now my rise is about 3 days long...I'm not sure what's better. Either way I get obsessive with testing and second guess my peak!
Hoping you get your peak soon xx

mummatara · 28/07/2022 21:29

@FfayeN 😂 glad to be of service in the laughter dept 😜 hell yes quickies for the win 💪🏼 you can get to bed quicker 😂

FfayeN · 28/07/2022 21:32

@mummatara it's amazing how precious that extra 10 minutes of sleep becomes 🤣 x

MrsCristiano · 28/07/2022 21:32

@mummatara I'm with you there🤣 I dunno he's 2 beers down and in the bath..DTD lasts FOREVER 2 beers in. Pray for me 😂

MrsCristiano · 28/07/2022 21:34

@FfayeN I'll get the sexy bra on and take it from there 😅

mummatara · 28/07/2022 21:37

@MrsCristiano ahhh no you're gonna have to pull out all the best moves to hurry it along 😂 don't let him have a third 🙊

@FfayeN sleep is life I should be in bed right now DS gave me 5 hours total broken sleep last night I'm done in 🙄 but I'm in the cosy sofa nook not sure I can move 🤣
