Anyone struggling to get baby number 2??

[slg76]

sorry you are feeling awful, W.

I had two follicles growing. This morning we saw that one is shrinking so will not be any good. The other is still growing and we are hoping that I can take my trigger shot for ovulation in thursday.

Good luck for Thursday slg

How's it going ladies?

Button how are you? What happened to munchkin? Haven't seen a post of hers lately

 

[Mrs W 11]

Slg that's great news, good luck Thursday! Does that mean lots of dtd this week then! Fingers and toes crossed for you.

I still feel awful, I literally cannot swallow I'm in so much pain. I went to the drs last night and I have a throat infection and a huge ulcer on the back of my throat which explains the pain. She gave me antibiotics and a throat spray and I'm taking paracetamol and gargling something she recommended. I can't wait till its gone. I told her how I've been ill at least once a month for the last 5 months with bad throats, colds, coughs and mouth ulcers and she's doing a load of blood tests tomorrow. I told her I think it's all linked to me ttc unsuccessfully and she said lets do the blood tests first and see what the results show but she seemed to listen to me.

Baby jan - I know munchkin was feeling down, I'm guessing she's taking a break from bnb and all things ttc. I hope she's ok, miss her around here. Xx

 

[babyjan]

Aww I hope she's ok

Hi BabyJan, I'm good. On CD11. LO has been a pickle today, I definitely have a toddler!

How are you? I miss Munchkin as well, hope she's ok.

 

[babyjan]

I'm good button, I got positive OPK Sunday afternoon (cd16) and even dark Monday, I then started to have strong cramps on Monday night and felt better Tuesday, today I feel slightly crampy and cervix is high, wet and open, is that normal for 1dpo?

I'm just guessing that I'm likely 1dpo or 2dpo :/

I have no idea on normal cervix position after OV but maybe have one more bd for luck if you can! Good luck

 

[babyjan]

I assumed cm dries up straight after O, this is gonna be a really long 2ww!

 

[brunettebimbo]

My cervix usually shuts after O!

 

[Mrs W 11]

I pay no attention to my cervix position anymore because its been soft and unreachable during af and all sorts of things that it should be! Like every month has been different, no pattern!

 

[babyjan]

Mrs w, mine is also high and soft during AF! I thought it was suppose to be low during AF lol!

 

[Mrs W 11]

Yeh I thought it was meant to be low and hard during af. Not mine! X

 

[slg76]

I can never tell what my cervix is doing so I just ignore it

 

[Mrs W 11]

Yup. Me too.

So my royal jelly arrived. I chose an apimist one which has royal jelly with pollen, honey and propolis, meant to be great for fertility. Tastes like poo.

Cd5 today so better start opks soon!!

 

[Button#]

Hi ladies, here's today's OPK

 

[babyjan]

Wohoo button!!

 

[Mrs W 11]

Wowzer button!! It might just be positive!!!!! Get bding!! X

 

[slg76]

That's as positive as it gets! Good luck

 

[Mrs W 11]

Does anyone know, does a really dark opk like that mean a strong ovulation or anything, or is it just that you've happened to catch the surge at its absolutely peak whereas other times you miss it? Just curious!!
