Late October/early November Superbus!!!

TuesdayNightClub i am in exactly the same boat. I'm supposed to be ovulating, or according to Fertility Friend, I was meant to ovulate today, but negative OPK's (or faint) every day for the last 4. We've been TWI 3 times in the last 4 days but I'm also wondering if it won't result in a baby. Maybe i ovulated really early instead or still have to or i won't at all...who knows?! Very frustrating

Sorry to hear you are getting off the bus Lyfti sounds like the right thing in the situation though.

ToomuchRhumba a lot of women at my work go on and on about how I "have plenty of time for all that" and "don't rush into anything" when it comes to having kids. I don't actually talk about having kids, they just seem to want to ply me with their "advice." Well, i'm sorry Ladies of Tuesday's Work, but my hormones, my life plans and my husband have slightly more influence, thanks all the same! I do look and act quite young so I think people forget my real age.

I am on CD 18 and supposed to be ovulating this week at some point, but have had negative OPKs each day, and my temping is all over the place... We are swi but at the back of my mind I feel it is a bit pointless. I really don't feel like I'm ovulating, and I'm not sure when I will.

well not for me this time. May be a good thing as DH came home and muttered about potential redundancies/uncertainty at work. So we're going to leave it for a bit I think, maybe TTC later in the year, need to know we're ok and can cope with just DS for the time being I think. Wasn't that disappointed either so maybe the timing's not quite right for us. Broody for another small person but we've decided we can wait a bit longer

Good luck to all you lovely ladies, I hope you all go on to get your BFPs and have happy and healthy pregnancies x

have tried to take a break from mumsnet after AF came but have been drawn back in! congrats to all the new BPF! nice to see. AF left yesterday so I am back in the game so to speak. started to use opk today as last cycle was short (24 days) and when we had ds my edd was put forward a week so thinking maybe I ovulate earlier than I thought. Got a faint line on the opk which was a bit surprised about as surely it's too early to be ovulating as i'm only on cycle day 7. AF properly left 2 days ago with spotting yesterday. anyone else had this on opk? very odd. just in case I think will swi tonight- DH will be pleased lol.

Morning all!

Boo to this morning's BFNs but yay to no reports of AF.... All to play for ladies

Lyftiduft - Thanks... Hoping for all 3 for you!

Floatinglotus I admire that you're as zen like as your name... I was obsessive during the 2ww... I could learn a thing or two!

Piggy It must be a relief to have told her... She'll be fine , I realised yesterday that I hadn't seen my bro's scan results and when I asked he sounded soooo happy that I wanted to know, I hadn't realised they were so aware of not talking to me about it. They've been letting me make the first moves and I really appreciate that....

Welcome Afox

Primal and Stickle Sorry BFN for you both but you never know until you know who shows up. With my last 2 pg I was 3 weeks late before I got any sort of positive result and it did not matter which test I used.

Well AF is at last on her way out so I am starting to put my SWI plan into action starting from this weekend going to go for dtd every other day if we can.

Well I woke up this morning all excited and rushed to the loo in my hotel (which is lush thanks kelbells!). Got my first response which I'd been saving for today. BFN I was trying not to get my hopes up but I think I'd sort of convinced myself it was going to be positive. . But still no AF and no sign. All cramping stopped and just feel normal iykwim?! Any ideas ladies? Surely first response is sensitive to detect anything given that today is supposed to be the day AF comes so I must not be pg right? What's next? Just wait for AF to roll in to town?

TooMuchRumba79 I'm certainly swinging between pessimism and, well certainly not optimism, but I guess realism!

Luckily I'm busy at work and at home but if given any opportunity to dwell I'm planning to test next week, yet planning our SWI for next month!

I can't help but think that if I weren't such an organiser I could relax more and just go with it, particularly as this is only cycle 1!

Tested this morning (superdrug early) 10dpo. BFN :( will hold out until Saturday, just before I order a cocktail. It's going to be a good cocktail.

Congrats to the BFP ladies!

I am about 7dpo or so, no symptoms except heavy, tender boobs which are also a normal period symptom for me. Read Emma Cannon's Baby Making Bible book a few days ago, which was a bit hippy but interesting.

Amazingly I have zero urge to test, I'm so busy at work right now that I've barely thought about TTC since ovulation! Hopefully I will still be this calm about it in a week's time.

Can I join?

TTC#2 Cycle 12 AF due 18/02

Fingers crossed for a BFP with all this cm then!! :)

TooMuch I get that all the time, people telling me I'm lucky to have evenings to myself or worse, parents asking us when we're going to start trying because they want grandkids. We are trying, really hard!!

piggyboo and others, congratulations on your BFP's! Piggy, I haven't dealt with this before so have no words of wisdom. All I can say is your sister will of course have mixed emotions right now but you know she loves you and I hope everything works out well for you both.

I've hardly been on here because we've been dealing with colds/flu, a dh working away and most importantly my FIL being very ill. Thought we'd missed my window or I just wasn't going to ovulate this month but looks like I'm ovulating later than Fertility Friend suggested. Anyway we've TWI couple of times this week and I'm hoping for another few sessions tomorrow am/pm and the next day because I think this is the right time. Let's hope my dh is as motivated as me

Oh, if anyone is interested, Superdrug had their own brand OPK on buy 1 get one free on Monday, so £15 for 10 sticks which I thought was quite a good deal.

well i text my sis to say was coming round, when i got there the first thing she said to me is 'you're pregnant aren't you?' apparently she'd already guessed even tho i haven't told anyone else yet and don't really have any obvious symptoms. She was v kind and said congratulations but i could tell she was a little upset. My nephew even asked her if she was ok so he must have picked up on something.

ooh congrats on the BFPs and hello to most people! I am testing tomorrow I think. I've had a horrible D&V bug for almost a week... am wondering actually if it's merged into morning sickness now, though it was definitely a bug/dodgy food to begin with as DS had it too. But now I can barely eat and I'm exhausted, feel sick most of the time... Toddler and illness, or pregnancy? Or all three! No other real symptoms mind, certainly not like my mc and DS.

Hope things go ok kells.

Piggy I know how you must be feeling.... I've been in the same position as your sis recently as both my DB/SIL and SIL on hubby's side got preggers within a month of my first MC. If her emotions are anything like mine, there'll be a huge mix of excitement and happiness for you and the why isn't it me/cheated feeling as well....

It might be none of my business but one of them told me to my face and the other on the phone a few days before I saw them... I really appreciated hearing about it on the phone, having a good cry and sorting myself out so that I could be genuinely happy for them when I saw them

Thanks for the positive thoughts and concern guys....

Sticklebricks Hope work have put you up in a lush hotel?! Fingers crossed in the morning... I'll be checking first thing for the results

Chunky I think you're right, the more you know, the more you worry about... I'm sure you'll breeze through this pregnancy (with the odd barf along the way!)... Oh, and backache is one of my pg symptoms too....

Primal Defo more CM when you've become preggers! I think (according to FF fertile fluid dries up after ovulation)

Panzee It's not over 'til it's over... Good luck!

Sunshine You have willpower

So, the appointment left me a little bit in limbo today but I'm still hopeful... They did a scan which showed a little empty uterus (apparently this isn't necessarily a bad thing...It's just too early after implantation to see a yolk sac) so they've taken bloods for HCG levels and progesterone... I'll have more bloods Fri to see if the HCG has doubled and I think I'll get the progesterone tomorrow... Still, the spotting has stopped for the mo

In the meantime, DH is cooking me a gorgeous dinner and bought haagen das to treat me... Now I know why I married him.....

Thanks Piggyboo glad its not just me!! I guess reading about other women's heartache on here doesn't help either, as it makes you realise it doesn't always go smoothly. Trying to keep calm & carry on at the moment - although that's quite tough!!! :)

Hows everyone else dealing with the 2ww emotions; doubt, pessimism etc?
Any other first time TTCers getting a lot of 'it's easy for you as you got no kids / it's just the two of you's' etc all the time from people they know and feeling sad about it?

chunky i could have written your last post, i feel exactly the same, was a bit ignorant of the risks first time round.

My sis has had 5 MC since i had DD so kinda keeps the possibility of it in the front of my mind. Also i feel terrible that i've got to tell my sis i'm pregnant so soon after her last MC.

I want to test so badly it is ridiculous!! DH says I have to wait till Friday but I am not sure I can!!
Sticklebricks i will be thinking of you - I almost feel I can't test until you have, almost ;)
Panzee, in answer to your question. Weirdly, since I had DD I have very little discharge of any sort. I have wondered if this is because I have been breastfeeding the whole time and this has changed my hormone levels etc? I can barely remember before that!
ChunlyChicken try not to worry and just enjoy the ride. I know hard to do right? I am a worrier and fouind the 12 weeks after the 2ww last time round very hard! I was worried about 'things going wrong' and also busting to tell people! Whatever feels right for you is the right thing. Tell people if it would help and not if it wouldn't!
Kells I hope things went well with the scan.

PrimalChic if this isn't too much TMI but I usually get a lot of CM all month long although through consistency changes... However, (excess) CM can be a sign of pg.

I had really weird backache yesterday Panzee but not sure whether I noticed more because of the BFP or whether it was related, but I kept wondering if I'd read the test wrong as it def like pre-AF aches!!

I've said this in my last post, but still not counting my chickens. Another BFP & no AF at the weekend & I'll feel a little more certain...

So excited for all the BFPs! I've been getting cramps so I think AF is on her way (boo!) Still clinging to a hope though! Not due till Saturday so who knows? :o

TMI... Does anyone else get lots of CM around 10dpo? Wierd. Pretty sure I didn't miss ovulation and last time I checked you don't ovulate twice in a cycle.
