Chiki fx it was just from dtd. I know that the cervix can easily become irritated if dtd is any bit rough Grin or if himself hit off the cervix.

Thanks for starting the new thread @carastarchild! I haven't caught up on the last messages from the last thread yet. How was your weekend? X

Hi can I please join I'm only 2dpo but this month we actually dtd the week before and all throughout my fertile period so I'm hoping this will be a good month!
I already have two children this will be my third, had a chemical pregnancy in September and been trying again since then. X

Hi everyone! Shiny new thread for shiny new BFPs! :)

@Carastarchild maybe that was it... Or maybe dtd made some menstrual blood come out. Ugh gross :(

Totally on it with the water drinking this week! So feeling hopeful about that. Also since Ive never done ovulation tests I'm going to dtd until later in my cycle this month just in case my leutal phase might be less than 14 days. Feeling optimistic even though my cycles are so long and I have to wait what feels like forever to ovulate and test!! Xxxx

Oh gosh @anitagreen I know how you feel...

Whenever I get my period I have a small thought in my mind that it COULD just be major implantation bleeding. I know it's really not but I just want to POAS all the time!! Even on CD 10! Lol xxx

@ChikiTIKI that is so me lol!
I'm really hopeful for this month I know I will start testing from 7dpo because I'm completely batshit when it comes to testing xxx

London the weekend went super fast, and I mean super fast. I literally need it to be longer :D Don't we all! I was doing a course over the weekend, so back to work tomorrow, and back to the mayhem. How have you been feeling?

Chiki I have been drinking loads of water, and wow what a change to my cervical mucus even now! Fx it was just cervix irritation...been there...try to let it heal for a few days, and see if it stops.

Anita Welcome to our Winter Wonderland...naughty November is approaching...step away from the pregnancy tests Grin ....we all know how hard it is not to test, but we understand equally how hard it is to test and get a negative result...we offer a hand holding service for all new members Grin idle hands get up to all sort of mischief...also can you update your stats like at the top of the page, so we can keep track of where everyone is...e.g.

@carastarchild thanks
Feeling alot better about it all just now. Last week I was a right moody cow (I blame AF!) But this weekend has been much better,we actually managed to spend a decent amount of time together and OH woke me up this morning with kisses on my neck and a whisper in my ear saying let's make babies. Which was pretty cute! X

Morning ladies, thanks @carastat for creating this thread. @londonkez I also haven’t had the chance to catch up on the last messages. Weekend was super busy, hope you all had a good one and I agree, it should have been longer 😂😂

Not much to report back, still getting bfn and I’m taking Friday as the first day of af and by Sunday it was done. Just some spotting but 🤷‍♀️

Welcome to the new ladies 🤗 @lottie how have you been?

Shiny new thread!! Thanks @Carastarchild! Oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! But you'll have to wait for the 1st Nov for your gift! Wink

@Flossytots how strange, have you had anything like that before? It's such a pain in the ass when you're TTC and your cycles start going mad. I hear of it a lot. My friend was told by a fertility therapist it's the body practicing being pregnant! Still holding out hope for you..

Hello new ladies!


AF due today, been spotting a tiny amount of dark brown since Saturday night - maybe 6 times when I've wiped there's been some (soz TMI on the first page of new thread lol). If it doesn't ramp up into AF today as expected I'll test tomorrow morning.

Slept terribly the last 3 nights as well! Please all be for something!

Hi everyone, may I join! 👋

I’m currently TTC #1 and on my first cycle. BFP is due 2nd November so I’m currenlty in the agonising TWW!! I know this is only my first cycle so I’m trying not to get my hopes up too much, but I used OPKs to make sure we were DTD at the right times, so there is some chance at least! xx

Welcome MrsNK. I am 4 dpo today so we are almost cycle buddies. Same for you Anita...fx for us all.

Flossy that is totally not normal for you! I wonder what is going on. What a rollercoaster of emotions for you. What tests are you using? Could it be a later than normal ovulation and less sensitive pregnancy tests. Fx for you! Sending you a virtual hug x

Lottie thanks so much for the birthday wishes! 37 how the heck did that happen to me...anyways I'm denying it and sticking to 21 years old Grin OMG! I hope you get a BFP in the morning! Fingers and toes crossed x

Thinking of you @Lottie hope you get a positive test in the morning!

Don't worry about TMI... We started this second thread concluding that my spotting was caused by DTD-ing too roughly. The more TMI the better in my opinion. Makes it easier for us all to bring things up.

Think I'm coming down with a bug. A colleague was off sick today, my baby is under the weather and I've started feeling really sick about half an hour ago :( off for a bath to hopefully get rid of this headache.

Will check back soon for all your updates! Xxx

Hello and welcome to our new ladies! We are a thread of hand holding, comforting and a firm word/reality check when required! Wishing you all lots of baby dust for your journeys 💖

@carastarchild Happy birthday!! 💐💖💐💖 hope you had a wonderful day celebrating x

@flossytots the body is bizarre, it can be really frustrating. I like the theory that it's your body gearing up for a BFP though 🤞🏼

Fingers crossed for you @LottieB87! Hope the spotting turns into your BFP! How have you got on without temping this month? Also,it's never too early in a thread for TMI 😂

Feel better soon @chikitiki big hugs 💖
