1dpo, anyone else?

[Emiily887]

Back at the start of another TWW… anyone else at the same point and fancy being TWW buddies?
We have tried the SMEP method and conceive plus lubricant this month, time will tell if they have made a difference!🤞🏼

I'm 3dpo today. This is cycle number 4 for us. We dtd 2 days and 1 day before ovulation. We also dtd 1 day after ovulation but I don't think that counts as fertile 🤷‍♀️
We've used preseed this cycle after hearing others say it worked for them but it just seems to be a different brand of fertility friendly lube.

@Kiwiburgh fingers crossed this is both of our months!🤞🏼
I always struggle in the TWW, it really drags its feet! I went looking for preseed but couldn’t find it so thought we’d try conceive plus, I think they both do the same thing though! When is AF due for you?

@Emiily887 I really do hate the 2ww. I swear time stops and it just takes over my mind. Since this is will be our 3rd I was hoping I'd be able to relax but apparently not 😅.
Af should be due around the 21st, plus or minus a few days.
Will this be your first?

It really does!🥺
I don’t think it ever gets easier when trying, this will by my third too! I’ve got a 7 year old girl and a 2 year old boy. It’s nice to speak to someone who’s trying for their third too!
My first was completely unplanned but a lovely surprise, so there was no testing or waiting! My son took 14 months to conceive, really hope it’s not as long this time🥺. We’re on month 7 this time with two chemicals.
AF due around the 24th for me but let’s hope neither one appears. Are you feeling positive this month?

Sometimes I think I must be crazy trying for number 3! Im suprised my hubby has agreed to it.We have two boys, 2.5yo and 7 month old. We're going for the smaller age gap to get it out the way since we already don't sleep 🫠 .
My first was also a suprise 😂 2nd took 6 cycles which included two chemicals, there devastating, sorry to hear you also had 2. I think there actually alot more common than realised, it's just that women don't generally talk about it

I'm unsure how I feel, I'm using OPKs and got a nice peak this month and we did manage to dtd on 2 high fertile days so 🤞. I don't think I ovulated last cycle as I had a fever and didn't get much of a peak.

Trying not to symptom spot as with my second I actually had 0 symptoms, everytime I think I have systems it ends in a bfn 🙃
Here's hoping it's our cycle.

hi I’m new here can I join? I’m 2dpo so similar time frames!
we dtd days 8,11,13 and 15 so definitely in the fertile window. I had ewcm and that’s my usual sign.
Didn’t use ov strips this time as we conceived before on day 12 from only one time, sadly that ended in a miscarriage at 9 wks. This is our first month ttc after that. Feeling hopeful but trying to prepare myself incase it hasn’t happened.

Hey guys I'll jump on this one! I'm 4DPO today and on cycle 21 😵‍💫 I'm famously crap at making babies (3 years to conceive number 1) but it's possible so hanging on to hope! I've majorly changed my diet and lifestyle recently to try and help so we will see 🤞🏽 if not it's always nice to see other people's BFP's 😊 come one number 2!!!

@thejollytrolleydolly Sending you all the positivity and luck!!! How are you feeling at 4dpo?

Afternoon! I think 1dpo (I take clomid and usually ovulate today but nothing!) but had this 2 days ago. What do we think? A quick peak? If so I’m also 1dpo. But I’m not sure this month. Bit worrying as I have to take progesterone when I’ve ovulated and not sure whether to take it or leave it another day!

Hey can I join?

I had peak last night so does that mean 1DPO tomorrow?

tests have started lightening this evening already

Thank you! I'm feeling ok! Last year was tough as we fell pregnant second month of trying much to my surprise but that ended in mmc unfortunately. It got easier though and I'm now at peace with it. I'm feeling hopeful but under no disillusion that it might not happen. My dd is desperate for a sister (specifically) so I would love to give her a sibling! Fingers crossed we can produce another unicorn baby 😊 how are you feeling? X

I'm just the same. So think I'll be 1dpo tomorrow about

Also TTC baby #3
I'm on cycle 4

Dc1 is almost 18
Dc2 is almost 2

Yay!

if you don’t mind me asking, what days did you DTD?

we did every day until peak (last night) then this morning

@Kiwiburgh they are so horrible aren’t they, sorry you’ve had them before too. I agree not many people talk about them or don’t realise they’ve had one.
lovely that they’ll all be so close in age! How are you feeling today?🥰
@LuxyLocket We’re the same DPO, also 2dpo today. Sounds like you’ve covered all bases with DTD🩷
@Ldougal92 it definitely looks like you reached your peak, maybe keep testing incase you get a second peak. I’m unsure regarding progesterone though. Is there anyone you could ask for advice? Fingers crossed for you!!
@thejollytrolleydolly bless you! You’re so strong to keep so positive!! I’m already struggling and no where near as long as you, really hope this is your month and keeping everything crossed!!
@LucyLou0527 yes definitely sounds like you’ll be 1dpo tomorrow🥰 so we’re not too far apart!
@PennyPencils it’s lovely seeing so many people ttc number 3 and normalising how we still hope and pray for that positive!🥹

sorry for the brief replies - been at work and just caught up!!

So lovely to read everyone’s replies and catch up!
@thejollytrolleydolly I’m so sorry to hear of your mmc. Know how you feel. im feeling ok, tired but then i work in a school and always am by Friday. Only thing ive noticed so far that is different is that usually after i ov my cervical mucus dries up but ive still got quite a lot of it. Not sure if that’s a thing or not.
AF due in 12 days and I’m very regular so we shall see.
wishing you all the baby dust! Let’s keep eachother updated!

@LucyLou0527 You’re definitely covered! We did it every other day. By the last time it was feeling a bit mechanical haha we haven't ttc properly before as the last time we just weren’t preventing.

Ah fab!

that’s the same as me and my husband today we laughed the whole way through because we both were just not in the mood😂😂

Hello, can I (tentatively) join too please? Had my 'peak' 2 days ago but I'm trying very hard not to obsess as this would be dc5, dd4 having ended in a 2nd trimester loss in July. So please don't let me test early, no part of me wants to know if I have a CP. We've always felt that we wanted 4 though so some distraction along the way would be nice!

Oh @MrsS11 I am so so sorry to hear of your second trimester loss. We lost our first at 9wks in July also. It really makes you want it so bad.
we can all distract eachother and keep eachother company along the way :)

Hi everyone! 1DPO for me today. Off to Cornwall with my partner's family for a week tomorrow, perfect timing to get me through most of the 2ww! Also found out I got a new job this week 🥳 so that's nice having something else to focus on as well as TTC as it's been a long and rocky road so far trying for No1!

In response to @LucyLou0527 we dtd every one to two days for the last week
Not today though which should be ovulation day. But did yesterday so I'm not stressing about that.
Ovulating very late this month I expect because I had a chemical last cycle.
Fingers crossed.

I ovulated CD 17 (always between CD 16 and 19). Dtd CD 10, 12, 14, 15 and 17 so hoping we’re covered!🤞🏼
Also first time using SMEP and conceive plus lubricant so hoping that’ll help somehow xx

After O we dtd day 18 and 20 as per SMEP plan xx

@Ldougal92 there's a wee while between your previous test and your peak so totally possible it was higher before that, in the evening? But even if not, I conceived my last pregnancy with a peak of 0.79 so it could well be high enough
