Anyone want to join me?

Im CD11. Going to try and do the sperm meets egg method this month. We DTD yesterday and I'm going to start ovulation tests from today

I really wanted a small age gap but it's almost my LO's 2nd birthday now so feel like time is getting away (stupid I know)

Yes me! Would love to join you. I'm cd 11 too! 36 yrs, first time trying to conceive.... Have just started the ovulation tests. Fingers crossed for you xxx

Jb2189 · 23/01/2023 13:24

I'm cd9 but my cycles are just shorted than the 28 days so I'm roughly due to ovulate on the 25th 26th Jan (according to flo which I known you don't take its word for it). It's our first time ttc so not done any ovulation stick tests or anything.

@Hardly123 good luck this month! Have you looked at the SMEP?

@Jb2189 I'd definitely recommend ovulation tests! With my first I tried for months and months relying on when flo said I was ovulating and then the first month I used ovulation tests we got pregnant and my ovulation date had been different to what flo predicted.

I've been busy today so left it too late to do a test now 😩 will try again tomorrow when my toddler is at nursery so I have a minute to actually think

Yes me please!

I'm due to ovulate 27th and this is cycle#1 TTC #1. I'm on cycle day 16, with cycles ~30-32 days.

I feel like I have no one to speak to as DH want's to 'see how things go' and doesn't want me to get too obsessed 🤔. Clearly a man and doesn't respect the fact that there's such a small window 😝.

Tried to 'encourage' DTD this morning and it's like he knew what I was doing and refused to participate😤- not like DH to turn it down 😝

Would be great to have some support buddies!

@NewMrsC it's so hard to not become obsessive with it. It was the same with our first and as the months went on it was all I thought about. It doesn't help that you have such a short window to get pregnant and then such a long wait between trying again if unsuccessful. Hopefully you can convince him later haha!

I’ll join! Due to ovulate on the 28th, although I have a big meeting a work on 26th which might impact whether we go for it or not…. But provisionally count me in!

TTc number 1, cycle 1. I’m 31 and DH is 35

NewMrsC · 23/01/2023 16:28

@ttcnumber2x fingers crossed! I know it's unlikely to happen the first month of 'trying' but we need to give it a shot and the guy is acting like tomorrow will do! 😂

NewMrsC · 23/01/2023 16:29

@Mushroo 👋hi cycle buddy!

Mushroo · 23/01/2023 17:12

@NewMrsC hi! It’s nice to have someone in the same position! Excited to see how we all get on :)

Pitstop1986 · 24/01/2023 04:46

I'm due to ovulate the 25th/26th, although I usually get cm 4 days before and haven't noticed any yet...

AF due on the 8th. I'm ttc number 2, DD is 13 months old. I usually use the cb digital ovulation tests, but haven't this month

Morning!

I think my peak must of been CD12..

But I never got the peak test so I've only DTD on CD10 as our toddler was unsettled on CD12

So I'm not holding out much hope.

I'm going to get some different ovulation tests this month as these I'm using I have never got a peak

I'm thinking of trying the easy mom ones, what does everyone else use?

How are we all feeling?

So I bought some of the easy@home ovulation straps and attached is what i got. It's my first one and I've never done these tests before, does this mean my peak is approaching?

Similar cycles to you all. Had my Peak Thursday so probably ovulated yesterday. Now for the dreaded wait…

Mushroo · 28/01/2023 20:40

My BBT has gone insane this month, but in theory should have ovulated today!

Going to DTD again tomorrow for luck and then settle in for the wait…

At a hen party at the weekend so will need to nurse a drink the whole night!

Hardly123 · 28/01/2023 20:42

Hello. I wonder if i could ask for advice? I'm on cd16 now and using the prenom easy at home strips. Not sure if I've ovulated or not yet, it doesn't look like I have? Any advice would be amazing!

I'd say tomorrow morning you'll get your peak!

Hardly123 · 28/01/2023 20:48

Okay, thanks so much! :)

Yes that's your peak! If you haven't DTD... get going tonight! 😂

Jb2189 · 28/01/2023 22:09

😂😂😂 we dtd this morning and also yesterday morning so hopefully that'll work!

TMess · 29/01/2023 02:57

I ovulated on the 26th also. First cycle TTC this time round. We’re lightly trying the Babydust method of swaying for the first few times, so I don’t feel confident that it happened for us as that calls for a three day pre-ovulation cutoff. Hopeful though!

Jb2189 · 29/01/2023 09:51

Yeah it's our first cycle TTC too! Got my fi gers crossed for you!
