  • Ooh, I'm on the lists!!

    Although I'm on CD16, I'm awaiting AF, so not really sure how many DPO I am, but I'm still stupidly excited to be here :D.

    From looking at the list on the first page, it would seem I am the only one who is mad enough to be TTC No 4. It's still just as exciting as when we were TTC No 1 12 years ago :j.

    Hopefully AF will turn up in the next 10 days or so, then the cycle tracking finally has a purpose :).

    Sex-ed in secondary school consisted of a sexual health nurse coming with a piece of cardboard with different flavours of condoms poked through them and we had a 'game' where we had to lick (!!!) each one and guess the flavours! Thankfully I didn't take part!

    CD13 and awaiting OV.

    Have been peeing on those ovulation sticks, but I think I ovulate quite late in my 28 day cycle. I assume they come up with TWO lines quite clearly when you are ovulating?

    Last weekend living with the inlaws, then we get a house of our own. Can't wait!! Will make TTC much easier!

    I've downloaded an app onto my phone to track everything too.

    Does anyone track their temperature? It says I am supposed to do it in the morning, but not sure when I am supposed to have time or remember when I'm so sleepy!
    Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
    Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    I ovulate late too it seems, got my first positive OPK yesterday on CD25! I have a 35ish day cycle. So I'm, I think, 1DPO now.... so is BD'ing done with for the month now?

    pinkshoes the second (left) line on an OPK is clear and the same colour or darker than the test line. Anything lighter than the test line is still negative x

    Haven't done temperature checking but might do if no BFP this month x
  • @pinkshoes I have just this minute ordered my thermometer for temping - never had a reading on an opk so wondering if this is the route to go down instead xx

    Hi

    Could.I be added back to daily list please kellykins?cd 1

    I am going for more of a NTNP method for about 6 months.as I don't want to be stressing myself out or adding any extra pressure, but would like to be on the daily lists as I do lurk and will occasionally post, but at least being on the,list helps me to track my absolutely crap irregular cycles.x

    Hi there! Was wondering if I can join you ladies? I'm pretty excited as this is our first month TTC our first child :D

    I'm on day 3 of my period which I think means I'm CD3? According to my Glow app I'm due my next period on 26 Feb so will try and put off testing til then.

    I stopped taking the pill on 30 Dec (after only 2 months as was on implant before) and we just used condoms for a month to see if my cycle went back to normal, which it thankfully seems to have done! Got ovulation pains at the right time then my period came as expected.

    At the moment my plan is to take it easy, DTD every second day and not use opks or temping yet. Don't want to get too obsessed on my first month!

    Good morning everyone, I'll take a february guess of 3 BFP's.

    went out last night, got a little tipsy. Husband said he was convinced that we are gonna get a BFP soon, he 'feels it' lol. Bless. Nothing much else to report to be honest, had relaxing day yesterday, and plan to try and be a bit more relaxed generally in the hope it helps. OPK testing begins in a couple of days too. Roll on a new month.
