TTC JUNE BABY 👶🏻🏖🔆👒🧴🍨🌻🎊

[Summerbreeze111]

Hi everyone ☺️

I am a bit eager with this thread, I've just started my dreaded period (feel a little glum to be honest!) and I have been ovulating quite late, so if by a miracle I am successful this month I would be due end of may/early June. I have been dipping in and out of these threads and found them fantastic support so I hope you don't mind me carrying on the trend!

I am going into cycle 4, I am 31 and were trying for our first 👶🏻I suffered a chemical pregnancy recently and I feel SO ready to become pregnant, I want this so badly, as I am sure you all do too!

I was trawling through some old threads and found these facts that I found useful , feel free to read if you like 😙

1. 80% of couples having regular sex (2/3 times a week) with no issues will fall pregnant in a year.
2. 90% of couples having regular sex with no issues will fall pregnant in two years.

3.Each cycle you have approx 20% chance of falling pregnant. 4.The egg only lives for 24 hours so very small window to fertilise it 5.Decent sperm can live up to 5 days inside you so good to have sex before you think you ovulate as well as after. 6.If using ovulation testing the test picks up on Lh surge which often happens after the egg has been released. 7.Most NHS CCG will not investigate fertility problems until you have been having regular unprotected sex for over a year and some places insists for two years. 8.If you track your Basel body temperature it can give you a good indication of when you ovulate to get to know your cycles.

1. Some types of lube can damage sperm be careful what you are using. (We are using preseed but using it like normal lube, not inserting it prior!)

Wishing you all the luck in world for this cycle 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

@Babydust99 ah ok, well fingers crossed it’s a positive sign ✨🤞

@Tophy124 yes I do like the preseed it definitely helps, I do try to use the applicator tbh, it’s quite fast 🤣. It defo makes ttc a bit better when you’re doing it 7 days in a row lol!

@Sparklythings1 100% helps to get the deed done when u can’t be bothered sometimes 🙄😩 as awful as that sounds

@PeanutCat1 Thank you ❤️ Fingers crossed for you too - like I said I'm glad I used OPKs last month because the MC seems to have changed my cycle and I could've been trying the wrong time! I'm going to buy another box this month and do it twice a day to make sure I don't miss my peak. Also looking at other things that may help... my due date would've been February and I just feel like I NEED to be pregnant by then for my minds sake. I'm using easy@home off Amazon because they seem to be really well reviewed and significantly cheaper than the Clear Blue fertility tracker which was the other one that was highly reviewed... CD2 for both of us today so would be nice to stay in touch. I'll drop you a message 😊

@FieldView Thank you for your reply, good to hear that a more regular cycle has been the outcome for you 😊 keeping my fingers crossed for you this cycle. What CD are you now?

6dpo, nothing to report at all. Interestingly I usually have lots of mucus discharge in the TWW and I havent at all this time. Hopefully a positive!

@Tophy124 last time it got back to 28 days but I got pregnant on the third cycle after stopping so only had two periods, if someone could just tell you in advance it would be fine and you could stop thinking about it 🙈

@NSx 😂 so true, there is literally nothing worse than getting in bed, just getting comfy then thinking god, we’ve still to get this done 🙈

I am at the same point too now. I am CD21 (after a miscarriage) with no signs of a positive OPK. I have strangely sore boobs and lots of white discharge so I think I'm in the PMS stage without a positive OPK!

Hopefully we get AF's soon and can move onto the next cycle!

@Sparklythings1 we do it when we get in from work & showered before dinner because if not, by the time we settle down we just want to sleep 😂😂😂😂

preseed defo helps move things up a bit 😆😜

After my ectopic I had a coil put in so wasn’t tracking at all. Since I’ve been tracking which is coming up to a year now, my cycles have gone from 26days on the nose to 23-28. Mainly 26 still but more irregular than normal. I’ve also had covid a few times so could be that messing with them

I’ve definitely picked up a stomach virus, which explains all the maybe pregnancy symptoms I’ve been having! Counting myself out for this month and going to try and just feel better the next week before AF arrives. Good luck to everyone xx

@Pepilachat oh no, sorry you went through that ☹️ It’s so annoying isn’t it, fingers crossed it comes soon! I go between not wanting to do any more ovulation tests then I go into the bathroom and think ‘I may as well do another one’ 🙈

@winningeasy thank you for all your information re vitamins, I'd never heard of ubiquinol but have done my research and brought some so🤞
Im only 4dpo but am really bloated so am already reading in to it even though i get bloating at some point in my tww. I really hate the tww and trying not to symptom spot, i really try not to think about it all but it never works. I was dreaming about giving birth last night 🤦🏻‍♀️

@TTCn2 aww great, I hope they do the trick!
Also sat here feeling proper bloated, mega constipated too (which is crazy cause I take probiotics and have been eating so much fibre/veg and even had baked beans today ffs), still having little stabby cramps, super thirsty, super hungry, tummy rumbling, highly irritable, knackered, weird sense of smell/taste...

Or is this just motherhood?

@winningeasy that all sounds very positive! Sadly for me, I've had all those symptoms and still not been pregnant 😪 but I really hope these are all good signs for you. Definitely fingers crossed!

Can I just ask what day everyone thinks they ovulated on? I'm currently CD14 and have EWCM from about day 9 and then it stopped a couple of days ago and restarted today so I'm confused as I assumed I already ovulated. My cycles are anywhere between 23-28 days normally and last month was 23 days.

@winningeasy I've had some stabbing type pains too

@TulipVictory I’m currently deep in the depths of google trying to establish when exactly you get EWCM. It says women in their 20s get up to 4 days of it before ovulation whereas women in their 30s get only 1 day sometimes. I’m on day 3 but still negative ovulation tests 🤔

Can I join please?
First cycle TTC baby #1, both husband and I are 27. New cycle starts tomorrow, this all feels very new and exciting but I have an endo diagnosis so feeling tentative about being too excited.

@Wrenegade welcome 🙂 I have endo too

7dpo and I didn’t test this morning! I quickly went and had a wee before I could remember. I usually start testing at this stage even though I know it would be negative but I’m a serial tester. I cant say I won’t start tomorrow but for today 🎉
symptom wise my boobs are a bit tender which is standard for me, not horrendous but tender. No CM which is unusual for me at this stage and bar that sharp pain the other day, nothing since. So a slightly different TWW so far

I also have endo.

Im still feeling really really sick. Overwhelming nausea. Could easily be stress and the fact we are all suffering from a bug as my toddler is still very unwell 🤒 Hard not to think ooooh is this morning sickness? I tested at 9po and got BFP so going to try hard to wait now and moving house today so will be busy loading the truck and unpacking at least

@Tophy124 wow you got a positive? That's amazing! Congrats!

Good luck with the move, hopefully you have some help?

9dpo took an FRER this morning and got BFN. AF due on Tuesday so I guess it's still possible but I reckon I'm out for this cycle

Hi everyone! I'm 7dpo today, the blue veins are spreading and getting more and more prominent. I know this is probably just progesterone and my period will likely turn up bang on time but it is so odd! I'm not testing until 13dpo so I've got a long wait yet.

Cd25 (yes, 25!) but I finally have a reading higher than 0.3.. a 0.6 this morning 👏🏼 We dtd last night so hopefully it will peak tonight. Just hope I do at some point and can move on if this isn’t the month

Good morning ladies 💕
I’m 3dpo, 3rd day of rising temps which means I think I ovulated ✨ which was a worry of mine because I’m a hypochondriac 😂

how’s everyone getting on?
how many dpo are you ladies when will u all test ? @WannabeMum22 @Tophy124 …
