June 2023 TTC Thread

[BB2023]

Welcome to June ladies. Adding this thread here to share our June journeys.
Wishing you lots of luck for the month ahead. 🤞🤞🤞

Woohoo @Caths456 💖💖💖

@Caths456 congratulations! How many DPO did you get your pos?

Honestly I’m not sure? Flo says I ovulated on the 29th of May, but my cycles have been 28/35 days in length. Not sure where that puts me. Had extremely faint lines on Tesco own brand and couldn’t decide so went and did the digital clear blue.
I have a a boy who’s 2 since April and a girl who’s just turned one, if this sticks I’ll be due in February. I’m so shaky.

Amazing @Caths456 ❤️❤️❤️

@Caths456 fingers crossed for a sticky baby bean!

I thought today was 1DPO as my BBT spiked but this morning had an abundance of EWCM and couldn't find my cervix it was so high! So I'm sure tomorrow will be 1DPO and I'm already anxious to get testing 🙈 anyone else super impatient like me?

@Caths456 aww congrats on your BFP that's amazing 🥳😍 how are you feeling?

I'm so impatient in the TWW I'm only 3DPO but I've been feeling sick all of yesterday and today, there was a small part of me that was like ooh is this morning sickness even though I know it's completely impossible this early 😅 then about an hour ago I started being sick non stop 🤦🏼‍♀️ definitely a bug!! 🤢

@PineappleK @Silverpixieflorence I'm 2DPO and sooo impatient. Days suddenly seem much longer than they did pre TTC! Ha. Glad to have some TWW buddies!

@Pandabumbles aww that's great we'll be testing at similar times! Oh tell me about it the weeks normally fly by but these last few days are the longest days in the world 😂

Hi everyone!! Can I join?
2nd month TTC with my 2nd baby. My DD is 18mo so I'm hoping for a 2 year gap between them.

Baby dust to everyone!!

@Caths456 congratulation to you :) :)

@123456789sw same I had some cramps and it was weird but it went and now I’m feeling the same as you, I’m not sure I’ll test tomorrow…. Maybe I’m just scared of the disappointment…? Especially on a Monday before going to work hihi … AF due around Wed/Thu/Fri maybe I’ll wait? I’ll just see what mood I’m in in the morning, keeping my finger very very crossed for you if we decide to do it :) :)

@PineappleK sound promising :) I feel the same 10 days ago after I ovulated I so wanted to know already ahah

@HyggeTyggeDotCom how are you holding up on your end??

Has anyone ever tested side by side with a clear blue digi and cheap strips? I started this month because I wanted a better idea (and my ov strips are a few months out of date) and today I got flashing smiley on the CB and a reading of 0.15 on the strip.

I am getting cramps which I’ve previously assumed to be ovulation cramping so I suspect the CB is right, but for the results to be so different is a bit weird right? Even on an out of date strip.

Not going to bother testing. Pretty sure AF is coming today had a bit of spotting after DTD last night.
I hope you have a positive

@123456789sw you never know, could be late implantation bleeding? Fingers crossed for no AF for you! Keep us updated

I'm trying to wait now. We go on saturday to cornwall so i'm going to test friday before i go and if by a miracle its positive, try.... TRY not to tell hubby so i can surprise him on fathers day on sunday.

@glasspaw I had the same thing this month I had a flashing smiley on CD14 on CB but on premom it was only 0.15 exactly the same and then didn't get my peak of 1.20 until CD18! We DTD around both days to be sure but perhaps keep testing with the opk, that's what I did to make sure

@123456789sw i caved and i tested with a frer clear blue, and BFN :((( and I’m pretty sure it would have been positive if it had worked… very disappointed but hey now I just wait for AF and will start a new cycle snif snif

Which days would you suggest DTD? We DTD yesterday when I was CD7 (28-29 day cycles) and I know it's a bit early but now unsure whether to do every day or every other? The internet seems to give contradicting advice on what gives us more chances to conceive!!

CD10 today and not sure if I'm feeling ovulation pain? Have had two bouts of sharp pain in my lower abdomen. Both came on really suddenly, lasted about 30 seconds and then went away really suddenly? Does this sound like possible ovulation pain to anyone?
Cycles so far been about 25/26 days so ovulation is predicted for tomorrow according to the Flo app.

I had that a few days ago. Specifically my left ovary area as opposed to a more central womb stab that i get with period pains. Quick pains then gone. Also i've had sharp lower back aches which shoot pain down the top of my leg. For no reason.

@Kat7542 I think that every other day throughout the month is good as it takes the pressure off and it helps improve sperm quality. Every day on fertile days if your partner has a normal sperm count and if it doesn't put too much pressure on you, you don't want it to be too much of a chore.

We aim for every day when I know I'm super fertile (so about 3 days) and other than that, just whenever we want. I've found that TTC has massively increased my sex drive even on non-fertile days!

We've not had sex for about 2-3 weeks now (busy life with a toddler then period came). Does that make us less likely to conceive this cycle, even if we have sex every other day or every day from CD7?

@Kat7542 have you got an app like flo to track your most fertile days? I use flo and premom to see when I'm ovulating and then do it every other day on the most fertile days. Then me and DH hardly even touch for the other days in the month 😂
