Hey all, 4po tomorrow! Would love company to make the days go quicker 😁

Cycle 2 TTC after an early MC last month! DP works nights so trying this month wasn't great timing wise. We managed to BD 5 and 2 days before ovulation so I'm hoping it's enough.

Xx

Hi! I think I'm 4dpo tomorrow too. My DH also works nights so it's been so difficult to DTD. Think we managed 5 days before ovulation and the day before and the actual LH peak day. Also my cycle 2. Sorry to hear about your loss. I hate TTW, do you have any children already?

lockdownbabyx · 06/10/2024 22:15

It's so hard trying to find the time when they work nights isn't it?! We do have 2 children already, so it's next to impossible really for us.
Do you have children?
Have you been tracking bbt aswell? Xx

Honestly it's hard, DH has been waking me at 4am (under my instruction lol) just to get the deed in but it's not fun at that time 😂. Add that to working full time plus 2 kids, it left me exhausted. No I've not tracked BBT, just done the ovulation sticks for now. I'm trying not get in my head, easier said than done.

I'm 5 DPO today, Cycle 1 TTC my Second 😍x

OverthinkingBrain · 07/10/2024 10:25

Welcome and good luck! How old is your other child?

JMassey · 07/10/2024 10:49

Thank you 😊 He's 3, just started at Nursery xx

AmberM223 · 07/10/2024 12:39

Hey! i’m 4/5 DPO today, we managed to DTD about 3 days before ovulation, the night before, night of and after 🙃🥲 And i still don’t think we got it i don’t know why, i’m trying to stay hopeful and really wanting to wait till i miss an AF before testing but don’t think i’ll be able to!!

OverthinkingBrain · 07/10/2024 12:59

Welcome!! It's really crazy is it how many time you can DTD during ovulation and still not get the BFP, I certainly don't think there's enough awareness around it! Sounds like you we all did what we could so praying for us all! I know what you mean, I think I'll cave aswell. Although the app changed my period date due to ovulation peak on CD17 so I don't know which date to use now.

Sugarcube84 · 07/10/2024 15:57

I'm either day 4 or day 5 post ovulation, this is our 3rd cycle. I've got 2 already, 4 and 14 plus my husband has 2 ,16 and 14. The 4 year old is our joint one, we always wanted another after we had him but with Covid and job losses it wasn't the right time, I've just turned 40 so hoping the delay doesn't cause any problems.

MyGardenDaisies · 07/10/2024 16:06

Hey!
CD4 here, we managed to do it 4x before ovulation and on ovulation day, so I’m very hopeful that this will be our month 🤞

How are you all feeling? I've had a pain that feels like a sore uterus 😐🫣 weird...

JMassey · 07/10/2024 19:43

I have mild aches, but I'm definitely paying more attention than normal 😂 I'm really gassy which is not usual for me at all!

MyGardenDaisies · 07/10/2024 19:51

I’ve been symptom spotting too ! Feeling exhausted, headache, white discharge and have convinced myself this is our month lol

lockdownbabyx · 08/10/2024 08:25

Morning all! Welcome to everyone that joined 😁
I'm 5dpo now and haven't really had any symptoms! I have been tracking bbt and Lh still though, not that I really understand it 😂. My bbt was still rising but it went down a little this morning, not really sure what it means(if anything).

How is everyone feeling? I'm just dying to rest now, I hate the waiting 🤦🏻‍♀️

4dpo tomorrow! Anyone else? :)

Morning all, hope it’s okay if I join?

Been TTC #2 for a veryyyyy long time, so I’ve got used to the bfn’s but hoping for a miracle 😊.

Always find these threads a good distraction for the TWW 😊.

I’m 4dpo going off OPK’s (maybe even 5 but I think more likely 4). DTD day of peak, “ovulation” and day after. I have PCOS so here’s hoping I actually ovulated 😂.

Sending luck and positivity to you all! x

MyGardenDaisies · 08/10/2024 09:30

5DPO and so far dealing quite well. It’s always on my mind but I’ve been quite busy so time has gone very quickly, and I am also very hopeful that one of the 5 times we did it in the fertile window 1 swimmer will be the one to meet the egg haha

Awh how long have you been trying? Everything crossed for you!! I always get the same feeling though, I do wish the positive opk meant you definitely dropped an egg lol x

How's your gas today 😂

AmberM223 · 08/10/2024 13:11

I have been getting random cramp yesterday and today, like a niggling cramp - i’m trying to keep positive but not get my hopes up too much!

I lost count at the 18 month mark 😂, so anywhere between 18 months and 2 years.

I had an ultrasound a few days before my peak opk where it showed a dominant follicle suggesting I should ovulate soon, so I’m hoping it was accurate. I usually get somewhat of a peak, but this one was really strong (a lot more than most I get), and my boobs have hurt since, hoping it’s a good sign it happened 🤞🏻.

I was just in boots and stocked up on a bunch of cheapie tests to satisfy my POAS addiction 😂.

When is everyone planning on testing? I’m annoyingly an avid early tester x

MyGardenDaisies · 08/10/2024 14:34

@Marie1990x an avid early tester is such a funny title haha 😂
