Hi all ☺️ I am now starting Cycle 6 TTC baby number one. I know some of us on January thread said it would be good to set up a Feb thread so thought i’d start it.

I should be ovulating around 17-18th so will be testing on 1st Feb!

@Lcc5261 yay seems like there is a few of us that are twinning this cycle! Keeping my fingers and toes crossed for us all! ☺️x

@BerrieSweet i used to be an early tester but all the negatives were driving me crazy!! 🤯😂. I waited last month and was 4 days late, I then took one and it was finally positive! But unfortunately it turned out to be a CP. I’m already telling myself not to test early…. However I may test on the 10th of Feb as it’s my birthday then and AF is due on the 11th….. so I may get a wonderful birthday present… or just be in a mood on my birthday? 🤔🤣 keep me updated with the early testing ☺️

I totally get that, so valid! I relate, just have really bad self dicipline and can't resist 😂 Stocked up with a 20 pcs early strips, I'll keep you updated!

I'm so sorry about the CP.. I pray that you get a BFP this cycle and that it sticks! 🥹🤞🏼❤️

BerrieSweet · 28/01/2025 19:56

@Lcc5261 Omg wow😍 Maybe we're starting to sync our cycles via this community like bluetooth 😂

Mumzydarling12 · 28/01/2025 19:57

@BerrieSweet i do still have about 8 early easy at home strips stashed away…. Sooooo I pretty sure I will cave at some point?🤦‍♀️😂 it’s the tww that I find unbearable and symptom spotting! Thank you ❤️ i am feeling really excited for this cycle though which I’m not usually, hopefully this will be the cycle for us all ☺️

Yes!! The TWW is really long 😩 At least we can relate and symptom spot together 😂 And maybe try to convince eachother not to test early haha!

Is anyone else CD27 or around the same? My flo app said AF due today but no sign just yet but done a clear blue test and negative so looks like I’m going to be onto the next cycle (this was my first cycle trying for baby number 3) x

Sorry to hear you got a BFN today 😕 i’m CD25 today and will test on CD27 so same as you. Hope AF doesn’t arrive for you x

I don't know about you but the first 5 days of the tww I find okay and exciting! But the rest is a DRAG!! I normally spot a lot so know I'm out early and spent the remaining days in a foul mood before af. But I've done so much to help the spotting this cycle and hopefully get some answers via progesterone tests.
I don't know whether to d2d tonight for good measure?

thank you and fingers crossed for you too! How are you finding the TWW? Only a few more days to go now! My ovulation tests had the strongest line on day 22 and 23 which is a bit confusing 🤯 x

I’m around the same, I have 25 days cycles, today is cycle day 25 and no sign of af either, also bfn this morning xx

@berriesweet @mumzydarling12 @lemoncello823 @carolinep3 @lcc5261 p I also ovulated today, I think. It must be the moon 😂😂

I'm really not looking forward to the tww, I don't know how 2 weeks can feel soooo long. I am going to hold out until at least 9DPO (I say that as if that's not very early) but will try and wait for 12DPO if I can.

Mumzydarling12 · 28/01/2025 20:30

@BerrieSweet hmmmmm…. Or perhaps we could just be bad influences and test together early! 😳😂 ohhh I really hoping this month is the one! I wish we just had a Time Machine and could skip the TWW 🤦‍♀️😂

Mumzydarling12 · 28/01/2025 20:32

@AlbatrossSociety no way, there are so many of us on the same cycle this month!! That’s got to be a good omen right!? RIGHT?? 😂

Statically at least some of us should get a positive!!

AlbatrossSociety · 28/01/2025 20:40

I would @carolinep3, we did it earlier. Can't hurt! I'm also considering doing it tomorrow just in case I'm wrong and didn't ovulate today. I don't do opks or bbt or anything so just go by timing and CM with the idea that if we just have sex at least every couple days for a couple weeks we should cover it 🙃.

I have a tracking app where you can share your cycle with your friends and my mate who lives really far away messaged me today to say we're ovulation twins too 😂. Let's hope it's a good omen!! I am at least glad to have lots of you to share the tww with. I keep opening my tracking apps as if something will have magically changed in the last 10 mins 🙃

Mumzydarling12 · 28/01/2025 19:29

@BerrieSweet @Lemoncello823 keep me updated! ☺️ when will you be testing do you think? crossing fingers for everyone this month! ☺️x

I’m not sure I’d love to say I’ll hold out until I’m late but I’ll probably be testing from 10dpo. I’ll try and hold out to 9/10th Feb.

littlefox90 · 28/01/2025 21:24

Feeling jealous I'm not in the moon ovulation group 😂 will be eagerly awaiting some BFP from you guys though!

Anyone CD 8?

It’s been hell 😅 i’m not sure why but i’ve found the TWW reeeeeally hard this time!
That’s strange… could you have ovulated late? Have you checked your LH since then? X

Hey hope you don’t mind me joining. I’m out this month as DH is away with work during ovulation window. Period should arrive 8th Feb so won’t be testing til late Feb probably.

Restassure · 28/01/2025 21:48

Good luck everyone!

Hi welcome to the thread ☺️

Lavenderrose92 · 29/01/2025 07:08

i’m cycle d6- has anyone tried the sperm meets egg method and had success?

I haven't personally but have read of others who have! I guess it's logical isn't it as you are DTD frequently enough to cover the whole fertile period and and then on both days where ovulation should happen. So it makes sense to me - I think main thing is if you are able (and have the energy 😅) to DTD so frequently for around a week!

justbelieve · 29/01/2025 07:22

@Lavenderrose92 I did with my first, we DTD for all 6 high fertile days and I fell pregnant on our first cycle trying. I think we also DTD the day before our first fertile day because I felt my EWCM arrive and although my OPK was negative, I just knew we had to try that day.

I haven’t tried it this time round at all (too tired now to do it that much 🤣) and I’m now in cycle 4 with no success, so I might have to try it again this cycle!
