AF arrived today so I am now hoping for a March bfp.
This is cycle 6, ttc #2. Aged 32.

Never started a thread before, so hopefully you will join & we can symptom spot together!

Hi Woody, I'll join you. AF arrived last night for me. 2 days early. Trying to not be too despondent.
I'm TTC #1
Age 31
Now on cycle 5
Going to throw everything at it this month, eat healthily and cut caffeine (already cut alcohol completely). Positive thoughts and fx Smile

LookingAtTheStars89 · 02/02/2018 11:42

Hello ladies :-) I was on the Feb bus but with my irregular cycles I'm more likely to be due AF/BFP during the first week of March.

Age: 28
TTC: No. 4
Cycle 5 post miscarriage
Cycle 8 in total
Cycle day 6

Avoiding caffeine and limiting dairy. Taking - folic acid, magnesium, zinc and vitamin D.

isitcosimcool · 02/02/2018 11:46

Do you mind me asking what benefit limiting dairy has? I'm willing to try anything.

DoAsDreamersDo · 02/02/2018 11:55

hey, I've not been on the buses for a while, but after having a few months of being 'relaxed' I'm now back on the temp tracking.

Age: 34
TTC: 1
Cycle: 9
Cycle day 4 after AF arriving a few days early this time!

AF due on 4th March (so I' skipped February out completely!)

LookingAtTheStars89 · 02/02/2018 13:26

@isitcosimcool. It's more of a personal preference, I think I'm slightly lactose intolerant so I don't want to keep having something I'm probably intorelant to.

Celebelly · 02/02/2018 13:49

I'm going to jump on here as AF is looking like it will be due March 1 or so, but I'm a bit irregular sometimes so it could be later.

TTC #1
Age: 32
Cycle: 2
Cycle day: 7

Cycle length varies from 30-36 days, occasionally a bit longer if I'm stressed!

Had a chem preg last month so feeling hopeful that my body can at least get pregnant.

isitcosimcool · 02/02/2018 14:22

@LookingAtTheStars89 Fair enough Smile. I just wondered whether it was something else I could do this month. I am going to drink pink grapefruit juice as it's meant to help.

Merrz · 02/02/2018 15:37

Hi, can i join?

TTC #1
Age 29
Cycle 8 officially ttc (11 months off contraception)
CD 2

Af/bfp due 3rd March
Fx for us all this month, bring on the November babies!!!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 02/02/2018 15:44

@isitcosimcool. Oh My god lol I tried the grapefruit and it made my throat scratchy and made me cough so I thought :-/ I'd better not keep drinking it in case I'm allergic lol. Maybe i will try the cough syrup.... has anyone else tried that?

Merrz · 02/02/2018 16:00

I tried the grapefruit juice last cycle and tbh didn't notice any difference!

Roobles79 · 02/02/2018 16:59

Can I join this thread?

I'm 34. TTC #1. Cycle 4 of trying. I've just had notification of AF arrival. Trying not to feel despondent. I was hopeful as used opk's this month, not convinced they are any good. What do people think? X

LookingAtTheStars89 · 02/02/2018 17:42

@Roobles79. I struggle with them a bit bit lots of other ladies get on ok with them. I have irregular cycles cycles, which doesn't help! x

LookingAtTheStars89 · 02/02/2018 17:43

@Merrz. Ah good lol I'm not missing out then. My cm was actually really good last cycle, fx it is this time.

Woody096 · 02/02/2018 19:18

Hello ladies.

My first pregnancy my accunpuncturist recommend I go dairy free. I did it for two months & fell pregnant in the 2nd but that was also my 8th cycle so not sure whether it worked or not.

I use opk, have upgraded from internet cheapies to the digital clear blue. Will keep you posted. I normally ovulate cd 18 or 19. I am going to take my conception vitamins & DH is taking well man!

Roobles79 · 02/02/2018 19:42

Thank you ladies. I am trying reflexology nest month, mainly for wellbeing and stress, might help with the baby making! Will keep everyone posted. Let us know how you get on woody096 with the clear blue x

Twiglet2353 · 02/02/2018 20:15

I'm joining you all too!
TTC #1, cycle 3, age 26.

Trying Pregnacare conception vitamins this month. Had just been on folic acid, vit D and B12 before. Also using OPKs but not temping.

Ooh I hope it's a good month for us ladies!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 02/02/2018 20:17

@Woody096 Did you have the acupuncture for fertility reasons? I tried the clearblue ov sticks and never got a peak :-( Although I've read that not everyone surges at the same level. I'm having a fertility scan this cycle to check everything's good and what's going on ov wise as I can't seem to pinpoint it!!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 02/02/2018 20:18

@Twiglet2353. Hi :-) and good luck!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 02/02/2018 20:19

@Roobles79. Is reflexology with your feet? Sorry to sound thick!

Roobles79 · 02/02/2018 20:30

@LookingAtTheStars89 yes that's right, don't sound thick at all. Will let you know how it goes!

Owlpatrol · 02/02/2018 20:54

Hi ladies can I join? Thanks for creating March bus @Woody096

Here goes
Age 29 (30 beginning of March!)
Cycle 15 Sad
Ttc #1
Af/bfp due 1st or 2nd March
Cd3

Can't believe I'm here at cycle 15! Never ever thought I'd be this far but I am ringing the doctors if af does come this month

Using
Opks
Temp
Folic acid and omega 3
Going to be relaxed about temping as it doesn't help me at all. Had classic "in" last month temps looked great but af came anyway

Just ordered mega pack of opks and ic tests. I will be poas early not going to lie! 😂

Struggling at the moment to be positive because there are pregnant women everywhere! But lovely to see some friendly names here supporting everyone again this month so fx for all of us! Xxx

LookingAtTheStars89 · 02/02/2018 21:17

@Owlpatrol. You will be Ok chicken. We are all rooting for you and here if you need to talk. Unfortunately we both had a "Oh my god is this it?" cycle last time. I'm going to test early I think so it's not such a let down if AF comes x

@Owlpatrol. Which omega 3 do you use?

Owlpatrol · 02/02/2018 21:21

@LookingAtTheStars89 oh definitely much easier to test early. Just waiting for Af to go as not dtd for 3 weeks!! Here for you too honey definitely a difficult cycle last time
Just take supermarket own but the tablets are huge so have to take with food!

Lulemon7 · 02/02/2018 21:26

Can I join please 😊 I’ve not been on a bus before.
Age 29
TTC #1

AF came last night but also visited 2 weeks ago so it’s all over the place. Had Mirena out a couple of months ago so I have no idea what my cycle is doing - worried that I’m not ovulating at all as opks have all been negative :(

Has anyone else got experience of TTC after Mirena removal?

Fingers crossed for everyone!!! Xx
