I'm on day one AF today and my fertile window is set to be from mid - end next week as I have 25 day cycles. Wondering if anyone is in a similar boat and wants to keep each other company for this cycle?
Am also feeling like this cycle I want to get away from the endless testing and monitoring and peeing on sticks as it took over my mind this last cycle. I was really sure I saw a faint line on 8DPO and spent so much money on pregnancy tests these last few days. Has anyone else tried/is trying to just have a lot of sex around the right time and otherwise just leave the tracking/testing?
It's only been a few months and we haven't been super focussed (e.g. in June we ended up missing the fertile window because we had an argument and so were not in the mood over those few days). I'm not spiralling that there's anything wrong with us yet...I'm 33 and my partner is 34....but it feels like lots of our friends got pregnant super quickly. Even as I write this though, I know it's not true because my best friend admitted they had been properly trying for 5-6 months but she never told anyone so everyone has assumed it just happened out of the blue!
It's just hard to cope with the getting hopes up and then disappointment. I have a tendency to focus on negatives and don't want this whole process to be like that.
