I hope you've all had a lovely weekend ladies. We've had a productive one decluttering. We've got a big pile for the tip, charity shop and clothes place!
Happy bding in your fertile week skimper!0 -
Hey all, hope you had a nice weekend.
Can I be moved to the two week wait next time you do the lists PKK please? Never got a static smiley on the CB OPKsbut as I’m now CD20 and pretty sure I’ve already ovulated, or at least sure that it won’t be any later than today I may as well go into the tww zone.
Definitely won’t be investing in the CB tests again. Hopefully won’t need any more OPKs but if I do I’ll def go onto Amazon.
Unfortunately have also joined the cold/cough/sore throat club. Really thought with the amount of vitamins I take that I would avoid it but nope! Woke up feeling rotten this morning. Ugh.

Ah sorry to hear you have caught the dreaded lurgy too Buttermint! What vitamins do you take? I have been wondering whether I should start to take some.
BD on day 1 and day 3 of my fertile window so far. Going to keep trying for every other day and then every 2-3 weeks until AF arrives. I am going to have my first blood test o day 21 this month, which fits in well with Ovia as that says my fertile window ends on CD20.0 -
Hope everyone has had a great weekend and has started to feel better after catching the lurgy!
I am still using the OPKs, forgot to do one Saturday but yesterdays was fairly dark so I am thinking I will OV in the next couple of days. OH is loving going and checking them, I usually do them and then stick them on a piece of paper with the date and CD, and leave them in the spare room and he will come running through saying ooh its getting darker, bless him haha.0 -
Aww Busy that's so cute of your OH! Mine jumped between wanting to know what the OPKs were saying and not wanting to, I think he was worried about feeling pressured. I tried to explain to him I'm not doing them to try and pressure him into performing on demand, just trying to see if/when I ovulate and give us the best chance. Anyways happy BDing for the next few days to you & yours
PKK thanks for updating the list as always. I was taking the seven seas 'trying for a baby' vitamins but found them quite expensive. So I bulk bought a load of separate vitamins in Tesco. I take a Calcium & Vitamin D tablet, a soluble Vitamin C that you drink with water, Folic acid and Co-enzyme Q10 with Vitamin E and B2.
Have been reading about Zinc and Omega 3 being good for fertility so might get some of them too :rotfl: I'm surprised I don't rattle when I walk with all these pills inside lol

Buttermint, that is quite a collection of vitamins each day! Hahaha I have been thinking about taking calcium and vit D, so I think I might buy those next time I am in tesco. I get my folic acid for there on 3 for 2 which is really good value!
CCJ, what day is AF due?
I am feeling more positive than normal this cycle. Hoping this continues!0
