I'd love a seat at the back please! Finished BC on 30/12. A quick withdrawal bleed. OPKs and discharge telling me no ovulation anytime soon. Best I put it to the back of my mind and get on the Feb bus!!

I'll join! I think af is on the way for me so that brings us nicely into the beginning of Feb for next af/ test date.
So far I've just been tracking my cycles and making a concerted effort to dtd more- trying not to get caught up in temping / ovulation sticks etc (yet!)

Me please!! I only stopped taking the mini pill a couple of days ago so I doubt anything will happen this month but who knows.

I think the mini pill gets things going a little quicker! I'm nearly two weeks of combined pill and wishing I came off it way before I got this broody!

ssh I'm the same. Stopped bc in December so January unlikely although not a definite bfn yet. Wish I'd stopped earlier tbh as ideally would want September/October baby due to work!

Hey everyone! I'll hop on the bus. Trying for number 3, first cycle of trying but have been tracking my cycles for a few months. Just thought it would increase my chances if I involved DH this month Grin

Have just started a thread about how I seem go be ovulating late so not sure if that's going to effect my chances!! Am currently on CD21 with no sign of OV. Unless my ancient CBFM is failing me....

AnyFarrahFowler · 10/01/2017 09:40

I'll jump on too! TTC #2. Should be ready to test early February but this is only the first month of trying so trying not to get hopes up!
I fell pregnant with DS the first month of trying, but I'm still breastfeeding so that might affect getting pregnant this time around. This is my last month of breastfeeding though - DS will be 1 at the end of the month so I think I've done my time!

Redpony1 · 10/01/2017 10:02

I am tentatively hopping on.... Last pill was 5th Dec but no AF yet, so unsure when cycles will return to some form of normal!

Will be TTC #1

Welcome everyone! Looks like a few early Feb testers. I would be due Af 5th Feb as well but cycles have been between 24 and 33 days since I had my coil taken out 6 months ago. It's taken much longer than I thought to settle down which is so frustrating. I'm 37, 38 in a few months so need to get moving!

hey! can i jump on the feb bus please! AF started today! So now into cycle 2 after finishing the pill in november.

Hey, after much umming and ahhing we are going to start TTC #3 (very reassured by the number of people here TTC#3, hopefully means I am not crazy!) AF due any day now so all becoming very real.

Have ordered ovulation test strips as managed to get a BFP in first cycle of using them twice before, although didn't use them until third cycle each time. Older now so thought I would use them from the get go this time.

Good luck all, hopefully lots of BFPs to come!

Hello! Coming over from Jan bus as I've had brown spotting today and af is due tomorrow so guess I'm out for this month :(

I have a DD already who is 8. I have also been pregnant a second time however had to have a surgical termination due to complications. This in turn has left me with scarring on my uterus from the surgery and I've been told that I will find it difficult/impossible to conceive again. I got pregnant very quickly without even planning or trying with my first two pregnancies so it's been a shock to now know I probably won't conceive at all even when maticulously planning :(

Good luck to you all, hope you get your bfp's this month!

I'm sorry to hear that Bubblegum89. Fingers crossed for you

I have finally ovulated whoop! Day 22. So I guess I should be on the Jan bus really but I'll stay on here.

Hi all - can I tentatively hop on too please?
I'm still on Jan bus too af due 16th, only managed to dtd on cd9 as oh and I got struck down with colds (still lingering), ovulated cd14 will be amazed if I'm pregnant this month so that's why I'd like to hop on.
Stats -
Age 38 (on 18th Jan)
TTC #1
Cycle 3 (not counting cycles where I didn't dtd in fw)

Hi all,

Am joining from the January bus...
26
Cycle 2
CD3
TTC #1

Second cycle of trying since having coil removed. First cycle, we didn't try, was 20 days then last cycle 29days. Based on that I'm guessing af due again around 7th Feb. Urgh - long month ahead!!!

Bubblegum89 · 11/01/2017 11:02

Thanks ladies :)

Woke up about 6am with awful cramps. When I went for a wee earlier though there was only a smal bit of brown blood. I don't think I've ever wished for a heavy period before lol (if I'm bleeding heavily it usually means scarring isn't so severe that the cervix has been scarred shut!) I did have a heavy withdrawal bleed a few weeks ago which is promising. I think. Either way, seems I'm definitely definitely out for January. Lots of baby dust to everyone for Feb!! Flowers

Jumping on. AF just about to leave the building.

30
Cycle 7
CD7
TTC #1

Last AF hit me pretty hard and signified that we'd been trying for 6 months with no success - not a long time by any stretch but think coupled with all the family/kids/expectations of Christmas and NY that it was just too much. Subsequently had a bit of a realization and going to stop putting so much pressure on myself and get some reflexology to relax a bit in the hope that it'll lead to a BFP.
Will be starting DTD from Thursday and CB digi OPKs from Saturday - and I temp too...
Good luck to all.

Hi all and hoping on even if I span Jan/Feb bus Smile

TTC DC2 and this is the first month trying after a complicated MMC back in March.

3DPO. Could test 24th Jan but I'm too nervous and want to leave it a week or two to know if late or not.

Good luck to everyone trying!
