Symptom spotters anonymous lol

Thanks millie, FX for you too and hope you're feeling better soon.
Are you breast feeding Imogen?x
 
this is the first cycle me or hubby aren't away so if manage every other day bound to cover at least one fertile day!

Think if 35 days cycle if keep bd'ing until CD 25 should cover it? Will try to keep BDing until AF but lack stamina!! I have got OPKs so if I get the urge to POAS might use some but I find when their stark white I lose interest in BDing but if they aren't reliable might miss the egg.

What dpo are you Millie?? Xx
 
Yeah up to day 25 should def do it if they're 35 days :)

We did combination feeding for a bit but stopped that as her reflux got too bad she was refusing bottles never mind breast (she has always had latch problems, took 3 weeks till she could latch at all). Bit gutted about it all as really wanted to try exclusively breastfeed lol that went tits up the day she was born when she couldn't feed at all and I couldn't hand express like anything (they wouldn't let me use my manual pump even though I'd already done it at the end of pregnancy and knew I got more with that than hand expression) . Once we had more or less stopped was when this last AF that was heavy came so I guess a positive of it is that at least my cycles can be normal and have more of a chance conceiving :). Hoping to manage it next time!
I'm only 8 or 9dpo lmao told you I lose will power early haha! Not sure what to count it as because I ovulated bang on midnight on cycle day 14! Xx

I totally agree with you on the OPKS! They just frustrate me so you are actually just BD as much as possible. I would DTD until CD30 at the latest. Like you say its hard to keep up with the pace of it lol!x
 
I think dtd every 2nd day over fertile window is best too...opks can be wrong...they don't actually say when your ovulating. I didnt dtd last night but managed a quickie this morn before work...so that was our last attempt this cycle as now CD 16 so prob out now ? I nornally ovulate cd14 or 15 but never dtd past day 14 so not sure any point now ? I feel like my cervix is low at this point from dtd this morn it felt that way...but shouldn't it be high at ovulation? Everything is alwsys so confusing. I have 3 pregnant colleagues in work and I just keep staring at their bumps and wishing it was me �� all due in same month!
 
Cervix position can change so often so isn't reliable at all so dw about that :) sorry about the colleagues :( that sucks there is 3 at once xxx

Alexis I would keep DTD if you can a bit past as you could ovulate a day or 2 later then if egg is good for 1 day you may have an extra fertile day?

I keep going a couple of extra days just to cover it.

CD4 today - got 4 nights of rest and sleep before back to the 'regime' as my hubby calls it!!!

Before TTC I think we were doing it max once a week, maybe once every 2 weeks! xx

I know I wish there was a sure way of pinpointing actual ovulation that was 100% proof! CP is supposed to be high at ovulation I think but the egg could still be there ready so better DTD anyway.
Aw I know of about 6 pregnant people & I know how you feel. Though just think when you're pregnant how special it will be being the only one & save the best til last,your baby will be the baby out of their babies lol. Thats what I think to myself lol.xx

Ahh I have more of that EWCM thats thicker again...like really stretchy but rubbery?? I checked my temp thid morn and its spiked and my opk wasnt as dark a line so I reckoned I must have ovulated ..we dtd this morn ...maybe will dtd again tmrw night then but my signs never all match...sometimes so have a pos opk and no EWCM yet...or I have EWCM and no pos opk yet...then my temps will be up and no pos opk...so I never know what sign to believe but when I count back 14 days from when af arrives its always cd14 even when my signs happen at diff days??

Anyone ever think; "how did anyone ever get pregnant before opk's and knowing about temperatures and cervix's?" A three day window is so small and it seems so difficult. �� And then you've got the women who seem to manage at the drop of a....hat without worrying.
