AF due 5/11

Think I'm out already this month though as Ovia has moved my fertile week forward a week so I've completely missed it - due to DP's shifts we didn't get a chance last week. I never wanted to use OPKs or anything like that but I might look into them if it hasn't happened by Christmas.

Hie vox you never know when ttc. I've read of people getting bfps when they never got a positive opk or only dtd once so fx. Any new tricks if af (God forbid ) shows?

I'm going the whole nine yards. Kiwi,pineapple, b.aspirin ,lots of dtd ,lifting bum. You name it lol

Hi everyone

Fingers crossed for you all! Would love to hop aboard Smile

As it's my first attempt I'm bright eyed and bushy tailed and obsessed with all things fertility and conception! Taking pregnacare but not engaged with much else yet!

Hope to see many bfps for us all in the next few weeks xx

Always start the month feeling quite positive and descend into thinking it'll never happen for us. At the moment I am positive and really do intend to try to stay that way.
I'm also a bit prone to TMI.... so sorry in advance for that too! Blush

Ttc # 2
Cycle 6
CD: 14 but I have loooong 35+ day cycles so won't be testing till at least 7/11 (definitely definitely there will be no early poas-ing this month)

I am pretty certain I've had 6 cycles of perfectly timed sex so feeling little disheartened but will keep going!

Here's hoping to a lucky thread without lots of BFPs in time for Christmas Smile

Hi Sian, I feel you with the long cycles, can be very frustrating at times! Have you been tested for pcos?

Haha good luck User!

Sorry to those who just had AF show, good luck this cycle to all!!

Mimi what are the benefits of kiwis & brazil nuts?

Got a flashing smily on cb opk but they'll be no dtd here as DH has his 2nd sperm analysis tomorrow morning and I'm having dye in my tubes with xrays in the afternoon

Feeling slightly grumpy as i keep getting hit with pregnancy news (2 of ds friends' mums and one of my best friends in the last few weeks and my cousin had a baby girl yesterday) Even dh said "another one" when I told him the latest yesterday! Starting to feel like I'm running out of time! Hiding in cafe near work enjoying lots of caffeine to drown my sorrows!

Hi everyone!
ALso just jumped over from the october bus thanks to AF appearing this afternoon.....
so stats:
Age:37
TTC: #3
Cycle 4
CD1

I had a mega long cycle this month (50days!!) so i think that my body is adjusting after having a coil for 4 years......
AF potentially due about 15/11

I am going to use the IC opks from about day 7 to make sure i can track any ovulation.
This month my luteal phase has been 11days if i trust the opks so at least i have more of an idea where i am.

Staying positive about AF appearing as at least it means i can go out on a couple of planned nights out without making awkward and obvious excuses!

Good luck everyone...

Hoping aboard the November bus:

Cycle 1
CD14

First month off the pill so not sure what to expect. I've been doing OPK's for a week or so now and not had a positive yet so looks as though it'll be a late ovulation and long cycle. AF would be due 5th November if I had a 28 day cycle so will see how it goes and if I can manage to pinpoint ovulation.

Hi everyone

Checking in to see how you lovely November passenger's are getting on.

I Ov'd around Sunday or Monday (or maybe Tuesday - positive was sunday) and dtd enough and in good time to cover the entire window.

At the moment I have no obvious symptoms, and what I do feel could be imaginary! I had a momentary sharp af like cramp on Wednesday and since then I have a faint cramp or feeling of tenderness in that area. However... I'm thinking this is either
A) me massively over thinking it
B) placebo symptoms caused by my obsession with googling "very early pregnancy symptoms"
Or C) me needing a number 2 and confusing it for pg symptoms (gross tmi I know!)

Good luck to everyone Xx
