Hopping on this bus! Still waiting for AF to arrive, she is currently a day late & im still getting BFN's.

Age: 26
TTC# 2.
Cycle: 11

Had a bout of nausea a couple of weeks ago & even tested with a Clear blue & got what looked like a faint pos but when I tested with FRER's, they were all negative. This morning I have nausea again, no pains or aches or signs of af yet. Odd cycle.

Hoping on from the November thread. AF has arrived 3 days early so 25 day cycle this month, maybe still sorting myself from the Pill.

34 (but won’t be by the end of this cycle!)

TTC #2
Cycle 6 (and feels like longer, chemical pregnancy in late September)
Period due date: 23rd December

Lots of gynae issue as a direct result of complications from last delivery making (I suspect) conception more difficult and will certainly make pregnancy more complicated. Perhaps I should count my blessings with the one I have!

Climbing aboard. We decided to go for it and ttc #2 on cd14 last month, so I'm treating this as cycle 1.

Cycle 1
Currently cd15

Fell pregnant with Dd on cycle 5, after a cp on cycle 4. Hoping things happen quickly for us.

Good luck everyone!

Hi all, I've been a bit absent for the last month but have been on the threads since June. I had a bfn and my usual pre af spotting today so I'm pretty sure I'm out of November. I'm actually due to start a cycle of mild IVF next week when my period starts properly, so fingers crossed we get lucky with that, a Christmas bfp would be lovely! Good luck everyone x

Cycle 15 I think, losing count.

Jumping aboard (although I’m enormously doubtful it will happen this month given how dire 2017 has been generally on the ttc front). Stats are as follows:

Age: 35
Cycle: 14 (mega yawn)
DS aged 2
AF due: 22 December

Waves back at Kashy. It must be a relief of sorts to be commencing IVF. I shall be keeping everything crossed that you get your BFP very very soon.

MynameisJune · 01/12/2017 22:21

@kashy lovely to see you although hope you’re stay here is short. Same for every one of us. Keeping everything crossed for the IVF, at least you’ll feel like you’re doing something other than hoping and praying. The lack of control to change anything is so bloody difficult to deal with.

AF arrived this morning so it's cycle 12 for me & DH now. 😞

DH & I are now beginning to wonder if it's the medication he's on that's slowing things down. He's been on sertraline for just under 2yrs now. He wants to come off it but just hasn't got around to seeing the Dr.

Kit1411 · 02/12/2017 08:03

@Coconut sertraline is common for failure to discharge semen so very possible that’s the cause.

Report
CoconutGal · 02/12/2017 08:07

@Kit1411 - I suspected it would have something to do with sperm count or even semen itself.

Af seems to have arrived this morning. Not sure if this is a random long cycle or a change sigh I’ve got a clearblue fertility monitor now to try and pinpoint ovulation a bit better.

Sorry to hear AF arrived Mynameis. At least it means you can drink in celebration of your DD’s birthday.

I’m definitely a big fan of my Clearblue fertility monitor as it certainly removes a lot of the guesswork.

Sorry to hear AF has arrived for you as well Coconut.

I shall be keeping everything crossed that this is a lucky bus for many of us.

cariad thank you, I was quite happy to see af to be honest. After the very clear bfn’s I knew I was out but couldn’t have coped with days or weeks of no af.

coconut sorry af arrived for you too

Hello, not really posted much. Very new!
I'm 27

Cycle number 3 and AF due in about a week (not always that regular)
Have had achey boobs but that seems to have gone now. Now have some cramping, no idea what is going on!

I was on the November bus, but took a break because I was becoming a tad obsessive. Took an IC tonight, AF due today. What do you think?

Congratulations MamofFrankie!

I’m on cycle day 12, still feeling rubbish and coughing constantly. DD has picked it up. Not looking likely that I’ll be successful this month! Don’t feel that I’m gearing up to ovulate- not sure if my flu is masking it or has delayed it!

Report
MamOfFrankie · 05/12/2017 20:41

I had a horrific cold this month and only DTD three time (unlike the ridiculous number of times last month) so I had written this month off and decided not to think about it.

That’s good to hear! Day 13 now, would normally have ovulation cramps at this stage so I suspect I’ll ovulate late this month. Doesn’t happen often but I’ve been coughing non stop for 10 days so think that’s a reason!

Report
LopeyLopez · 06/12/2017 09:05

Yay, congratulations mam! First bfp of the thread! Smile

I'm apparently 9 dpo today, says ff, but I think it might be wrong due to temps messed up by having a fever. More like 6 or 7 dpo. Have various symptoms but a lot of them could be just because I'm ill....! Will wait and see. Only dtd once anyway due to illness, so no great expectations this month.

Good luck all x

Congratulations mam that’s a definite line. Hope everything goes smoothly for you.

Af has finished now so will start with the opk’s and clear blue monitor this month. One last shot for a 2017 bfp!
