Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 13

Hi Zeni
That's exactly what my partners wife said she was going off what her app said and getting it wrong, she's sure that using CB did the trick, hopefully it will for us too!
Are you still late? Maybe the CB has done the trick first time round for you too!

Dot funnily enough I used the CB in July which is when we caught, it confirmed what I thought for that cycle but I was ovulating irregularly - sometimes CD12, sometimes CD20 so it was good to have it confirmed that month, and it obviously helped!

Fingers crossed Zeni!!

Hello
I've been lurking for a while but its time to de-lurk and introduce myself and hopefully join the group.

I'm 37, hubby is 42 and we are *finally* starting TTC (we've been married for 10 years now which I realised this week sounds much longer when you call it a decade!). Took my last pill (Cerazette) on Friday and have swapped it for a folic acid and Vit D supplement. Other than that we're following the "just have lots of sex" approach for now (trying to keep the stress levels down).

I'm not bothering waiting for AF before trying (I know it'll make dating harder but I don't mind how far along I am when I find out and I've a pretty good idea when I ovulate from symptoms anyway so can count from then). Sod's Law guarantees I'll either come on when we're on holiday next month or nothing will happen for ages. I'd love to get PG early in the new year for a September baby as that would fit really well with leave etc. but at my age I can't be fussy.

Welcome to all the new ladies - I am glad, it was starting to get quiet round here!

May all your memberships of the club be short-lived


Afoolandhermoney - I'm taking a "relaxed" approach at the moment too. Well, I'm trying anyway!

That's good Kirtsy seems to be helping lots of you then! So far I don't feel to get any of the OV symptoms so I can't really tell so I'm hoping this will help figure it out for me! Hope you are doing good x

Thank you for letting me join, I have irregular periods, some times can be up to 3 months, The last 4 months I would say every 5/6 weeks for a period, we already have a 5 year old.

I have bought the clear blue ovulation tests but no far only had the circle, I also bought some cheap ovulation tests from ebay but I've still never had the two lines, how regular would you say to use the ovulation tests?

We use Glow just as a way of keeping track of dates. We use the green 'fertile' calendar as a rough guide but OH also keeps an eye on CM. We started trying every other day during the fertile time.

The month we conceived was also the month that we started to space BDs out more. We just did every three days from the end of AF until CM was starting to look like the more fertile stuff. Then did every other day.

But then she felt like OV was happening so we did an extra one straight away and that was probably when we caught it.

Funnily it was straight after a visit to A&E!

Zeni

Thanks ladies.. another day of nothing and another negative test. I'm feeling a bit frustrated! Its almost like I'd rather it just start or a positive test so just stuck in the middle at the moment.

I don't have any apps, I marked down when we do it on the calendar and also when period comes and finish's , how often are use using the ovulation tests? is there any time of the day you would recommend is best to check? sorry for all the questions just frustrating when we already have a 5 year old and the last 18 months been hoping for baby number 2 to happen.
