Think I might properly try this month! Keep me company :)

[Samanthatc]

So we've been pretty slack with birth control last few months because we'd be happy with a surprise but today I'm approximately CD15 and decided I might give it a decent go this cycle. Assuming I'm due to O soon so will try and BD as much as possible the next few days. Had a bit of EWCM this morning so dtd today...

Anyways, doubt anything will come of this but some buddies would be great

I'll be your buddy I'm already towards the end of the two week wait but if it doesn't happen for me this month I'll be your buddy what made you decide to actually try instead of just not preventing?

 

[Samanthatc]

Oh jealous! How many DPO are you? Have you tested yet? Any symptoms?

Well the last few months even though we haven't been trying Iv been finding myself a little disappointed when AF shows. So this month I thought it may as well give it a decent go, I think were ready and I'm sick of waiting for "the right time". Plus my parents had me quite late and are getting old now so lately Iv been thinking I better have kids soon so they have time with their grandparents!

I mean I'm not temping, using OPKs or anything else. I just go by my CM to determine when I O and because I haven't had my usual day of EWCM I'm assuming I still haven't Od. It is weird though because my cycles are usually fairly regular.. Hmmm frustrating waiting!

 

[Marqelle93]

Yep as soon as you start trying your body screws with you. It's cruel! well I'm not sure exactly when I ovulated. I'm thinking maybe on the 13th. So I'm about 11 dpo. Which makes me happy because I've been thinking I was like 14 dpo and all my tests have been negative so at least I just now realized it's still a but early to be testing. Haven't tested with first morning urine though so I saved a first response for tomorrow's fmu, fingers crossed!

My mom had me at 16 so she's still only 37 right now. It's pretty nice knowing they will be around for awhile. How old are you if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Samanthatc]

Fingers crossed you get a BFP! Keep me updated!

I'm 26, how about you?

After I posted my reply I had some EWCM so I'm thinking maybe today or tomorrow for O. We BDd today just I'm case!

 

[Marqelle93]

I'm newly 21 thank you! And fingers crossed for you that you ovulate!

 

[Samanthatc]

Still so young! And I was worried I was too young to start trying hehe! I guess it doesn't matter how old you are just depends on when your ready and everyone's different.

How many cycles have you been trying so far and have you tested again?

 

[Marqelle93]

Yeah I always say why waste time being less happy then you could be I've been trying for two years and one month I tested this morning, bfn. Some light cramping so it's just a waiting game for me. Any O pains since this mornings ewcm? Or do you not get o pains?

 

[Samanthatc]

Sorry to hear about the bfn, still time! Any symptoms?

No I don't usually get O pains. Usually I have one day mid cycle where I get a huge big once of blob of EWCM. Sorry, so gross! It's like so much, so no missing it. When I first went of birth control it freaked me but now I just think it means I'm ovulating that day because without fail about 12/13 days after the blob of EWCM I see AF. It's weird I'm on cd 22 and still haven't seen it yet! Last two days Iv had a very small amount of EWCM but only like a drop of it, not the usual huge amount. So that's why I think my body's preparing to O but still hasn't. Frustrating I haven't even entered to TWW yet! Well don't think so...

 

[Samanthatc]

Also, I'm going over to Europe for 2 weeks on May the 5th and won't really be able to test over there (will probably pack a few) but not as easy. So if I don't O soon I won't even be able to test before I leave...

 

[Marqelle93]

Oh no, that's too bad. I know how it feels though, before the clomid I would ovulate around day 48 or so. I only have ovulated twice in the past couple years so I guess my cycles are pretty much 365 days without clomid haha. Well have fun I Europe! I just bought a huge back of ovulation tests for about 3 dollars on ebay. The internet cheapies. Perhaps that would help you on your trip,

 

[Samanthatc]

Wow that's crazy. Thank god for chlomid then!

Yeah I may have to pack a few tests but not that optimistic about this cycle anyway. We will be staying with family so don't want them to see me testing everyday, will have to be sneaky! Will still be on here keeping you updates tho!

Any updates with you? Any signs of AF?

 

[Marqelle93]

Yes definitely keep us updated! And I hope you catch it even if you don't get to test

No AF, no AF cramps. Just horrible ovary pain randomly throughout the day. Internet says it could be good or bad so we will see

 

[Samanthatc]

Sounds promising. Have you tested again at all?
