Me too please! Am 2ww'ing at the moment, but when if AF comes that still leaves me in with the chance of a Dec baby. I wanted to have a baby by age 30, then I wanted a baby in 2012, now I think I'll be lucky to conceive at age 30 :(

I'd like to board please! I think this is my 4th cycle off the pill but only seriously trying since Christmas. Have just purchased some eBay ovulation sticks as well as I don't seem to have much of an idea as to when that's happening. AF due March 17th. We have a 20 month old son - please can someone kindly add me to the list as I'm on my iPhone Grin. This is going to be the month!

Welcome aboard beaker.

chunky my cycle was back to normal immediately following the chemical PG. I did the same as you, tested early using early PG test, which came up positive, and then came on, on my usual day. For all that I love early PG tests think they can cause more pain by showing these early PGs. Maybe it'd be better if we didn't know until 5 or 6 weeks. All that said, still didn't stop me from using them on my last cycle..... BFN's though, so that's why I have my boarding pass for this flight.

Beakersbelle · 22/02/2012 17:13

Hi - can I sneak aboard too? I've been lurking on the last two flights/buses (with the luggage?) and haven't posted yet (ever!) until now. I'm reserving a seat on this plane even though I'm not due AF until Saturday (14 DPO) but have had BFN today on FRER so I'm certain I'll be trying again in March. My cycles are hardly worthy of the name as I've got PCOS so I'm not sure when my next AF will be due. Would love to join you all for the journey anyway. Have stocked up on duty free OPKs, thermometer (am going to start charting) and booze and will settle down for take off with my giant pack of Always at the ready in my overhead locker (ugh).

Hey all. Grin

Knickyknocks I had a chem pg at 4+1 after knowing for just under a week, last week, so it barely feels real!!! But, I think my cycle is carrying on as if it never happened, judging by CM etc. Did your cycle return to normal straight away?

Also, I wasn't going to join a bus/flight/shuttle or anything so I didn't get obsessed but a) I'm obsessed anyway and b) I'd like to hear some good news from people in the same boat, so I can have hope!! I'm so desperate to try/be preg/have a baby but I'm also scared stiff it won't happen again/I'll have another unhappy ending/I'll be one of those unfortunate/unlucky women who develop conception probs after having a baby.

In some ways my BFP/chem pg was good because I now know that if DH & I DTD on cd14, we get a BFP - that was the cd we conceived my DD & this recent 1, but cycle 1 we didn't DTD between days 12-16 or so & it didn't happen. But that is a double-edged sword: what if we don't/can't DTD then?!! Hell of a lot of pressure on us... Hmm

That's me spilling my verbal guts!! The whole TTC thing is pure hell and utter delight in the space of 28 days or so...Wink

More Wine &/or (decaf) Brew & Biscuit in this aisle I think!!!

Lots of people boarding this flight to BFP's Smile

I'm also new to this, have been lurking around for the last few months, reading but not really posting. I'm a control freak and a biologist after DH and I decided to start TTC, i started charting as soon as I can off the pill. Its now CD1 of cycle 3 and hoping for a BFP this month, or if not a BFP then at least for a LP longer than 6 days Hmm. I am secretly longing to be able to join a 2WW thread and stick around for longer than 6 days!

Elizadoesdolittle · 22/02/2012 15:09

I can't keep up with this list, 3rd time lucky!! Hope I haven't missed anyone off this time. Can you tell I'm new to this. Have arranged in date order, hope that's ok....

Hi ladies, can I jump on board please. I didn't jump on the last bus as was trying not to take TTC too seriously but we all know that's not possible! I ended up a lurker anyway so may as well just have joined it!

I'm TTC #2 and am on cycle 3. I have a very irregular cycle ranging from 30-45 days so I never really know when I'm on the TWW. I'm not charting at the moment. Am going to step it up a gear though and monitor CM/use OPKS. I'll do that for a couple of months and if still no BFP I''ll step up to charting but I just can't get my head round it at the mo. Am on cycle day 19 so getting as much SWI in as I can (which probably isn't as much as we should but I'm trying my best!) Blush

I'll add myself to the stats.

FX for BFP's all round!
