TTC April baby ☀️🌼🌿🌧🐣

[BiscuitLover3678]

Let’s go go go!

This will be cycle 9 🙄

So much to catch up on, I love that everyone is as obsessive and loopy as me

You've all made me want a bloody Wispa now... I may have to text DH as he's on his way back from footy.

It's funny that the time of DTD was mentioned downthread, that's been my focus this month.
I'm convinced I ovulate at about 8pm to midnight every month (thanks to ovulation pains), so I assume DTD that morning would be ideal as sperm take 12 hours to "prepare" after ejaculation before they can fertilise the egg. However, we always DTD at night due to the toddler. Well this month we managed a few mornings so I'm hoping this will make the difference!

Just laying here with my legs up typing for something to do...I'm pretty sure there is zero science to this and my partners just looked at me and said..."that isn't the most attractive thing I've ever seen" 😂😂 life.

@ViMa1820 Im also all about that LOA so good vibes all around. I'm on day 2 of 5/6 when Im usually a 3 max a week girl partners loving life!

@RugbyGirl1 I honestly dont think it matters too much how many times. If its meant to be it will be. I'm only doing this to myself as my partner is soo excited, but I have heard theres sonething to waiting and letting him recharge so to speak or w/e brings you both less stress! We're all rooting for ya! X

@ExPatHereForAChat I've always wondered about that theory so let me know if it works!

@Aurora81 uh oh, what's opks? Haha I'm so useless 🫣

Have just ordered some. I'd much rather digital or just more obvious positive than me having to work out if one was darker than another. Thank you!

@ExPatHereForAChat i think I ovulate in the morning, somewhere between 5-10am I think and also never DTD in the morning due to kids

Argh my BBT still hasn't risen! So maybe I will be ovulating today like normal, but my hormones just peaked earlier than usual 🤷 idk, stupid bodies doing things they don't usually! DTD Thursday, sat, sun and Mon though, both a bit exhausted so don't think I'll get a fourth in a row out of him tonight 😂 hopefully done enough!

@Nypie everything is worth a try!

@RugbyGirl1 im going to start temping next cycle if I have no luck this month. I was going to start last cycle but I’m Scottish so I seriously struggled with our heatwave last week and thought that would effect things 🤣🤣

10dpo and pretty sure I'm out. I think AF is on her way 😢

@CinderellaFant Hope you’re feeling ok. I always really struggle for a day or 2 but then feel positive again by the end of AF as feel like it’s a new chance. Xx

@RugbyGirl1 it's so hard to know exactly isn't it. I agree the temping would be good to see the rise afterwards. I feel ovulation pain but generally for a couple days and same time as EWCM (last Wed/Thursday) and my peak was Wednesday so think I ovulated on Thursday as pain was gone by Friday.

Sounds like you've DTD at the right times. We didn't make the 4 in a row, just the 3. Baby dust to you for this cycle

@CinderellaFant sorry to hear this. Hope you're ok. Fresh cycle now to focus on

Sorry you think AF is coming @CinderellaFant you never know but if it does. Fresh start fresh cycle lovely

I'm 7dpo today, feel like I normally would at this stage any month, which is also normal considering 1. Probably wouldn’t have implanted yet, 2. To get any pregnancy symptoms you need HCG in your system.

will probably end up testing tomorrow as have no will power

Morning ladies hope we are all doing OK? Sorry for the BFN's, sending big hugs and FX for the next cycle ❤️
My chart finally updated this morning after my temp rose (highest its been this cycle) - says I ovulated CD13 which puts me at 4DPO. B🍉🍉bies are sore but they always are between ovulation and AF arriving. Trying not to symptom spot.
For any ladies familiar with BBT charting - mine is below... How do you think its looking?

What does everyone recommend for increasing ewcm or just moisture down there generally. I have to use lube as I'm too dry most of the time 🙈

Hi Ladies Af has definitely arrived for me this morning so I’m out, at least I’ve finally had a period now after ending the pill on 4th June.

@Blossomhoney sorry AF has arrived but there is something nice about knowing your cycle as now come back and you can start fresh today

@CinderellaFantuntil AF arrives don't give up hope! A lot of early pregnancy symptoms and AF symptoms are the same so you never know 🙃

@EdinburghGirl1 @NiceToChat88 I love temping, it just gives me that confirmation that ovulation happened! I don't usually get any ovulation pain so can never be too sure.

@Mummyme87 have you got some cheapie tests in? I try and wait until AF is late which is never so I rarely have tests in the house 😂

@Dogmum13 I tried starflower oil this month and it seemed to work! Take it from AF starts to ovulation. Otherwise evening primrose oil, 100% pink grapefruit juice and preseed lube can all help!

@Blossomhoney sorry to hear that AF arrived although at least you know where you stand now in terms of your cycles after coming off the pill 😊

@ViMa1820 opk means ovulation predictor kit 😊

@Dogmum13 I started taking high strength evening primrose oil from CD 1 to peak. I also believe it's important to keep hydrated, and even more so now that it's so warm.

@NiceToChat88 typo in my msg yesterday 😅 I meant to say that I have scheduled a fertility reflexology appointment.

@Mummyme87 keep away from the pregnancy tests 🤣 I know I can't talk some months... I literally pee in the morning as soon as I can to prevent the POAS temptation 😅

@CinderellaFant 10dpo too and here with you ✨hope you are okay

@RugbyGirl1 that has happened to me before! 🙂 Hang in there the egg chasing marathon is nearly over 👏🏻

@ExPatHereForAChat I hope you got to munch on a delicious wispa 😋 I would feel rather guilty if I was the only one scoffing one 😅

@CDD1992 yay for getting crosshairs ✨your temp should continue to rise over the next few days 🙏🏻

@Blossomhoney Sorry for the arrival of AF 😕 I am glad though that you finally have some clarity and you can start tracking your cycle 🙌🏻

@EdinburghGirl1 @RugbyGirl1 Yes as much as I really want a bfp I’m glad my af has arrived properly as I feel like my body is doing what it should be now if you get what I mean.
Good luck to everyone waiting x

@Dogmum13 I'm the same and use Pre-seed, I find it really easy. I've also been taking Evening Primrose Oil but haven't noticed a change.

@Aurora81 They didn't have Wispas so he got a Kinder Bueno and a Twirl instead. Boy done good

Who mentioned wispas???? There are some in the vending machine at work and now I can't stop staring at it when I walk past!!!!
