I don't pay any attention to CM now. At all...my body just does its own thing at all points in the month!

That's good, Hannah. Shame no joy your first cycle, but fx for this one. :-)

Hellooooo. So, 2 BFNs and one visit from AF later, here I am, slap bang on a 28 day cycle. Started Slimming World this week in an attempt to get down to a healthy weight and hopefully improve my fertility.

Fx for you all for this month xx

I don't remember cm leading up to BFP...but not 100% sure about that :-/ They say everyone is different and don't go by your cm as its meant to change all the time after OV...I think I've said that before

He's determined now, I think...keeps trying to shag me, ha ha! I hope he's up to the forthcoming challenge.

And after refusing to use CP, he now loves it :-) I win.

I've had loads of CM the last two cycles post-OV, without joy. Maybe none is the key this time?!

Wow Nicola look at you go girl!

Dulcet I had damp knickers lots at the start of pregnancy and upto now. Like Thunder said you're constantly running to loo to look for blood :-( Weirdly since yesterday I've had creamy cm / slightly yellow which is a bit odd :-/

Just DTD again before Bri heads off to the pub...making it CDs 1, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12! Apparently in the fertile period now too, finally :-)

Gonna try 14 (morning and night as can't do Sunday), 16, 17, 18 and 19. Then I can rest!

I'm on cycle 5, BFP due 15th October, but not testing this cycle due to wedding! If no AF, I'm testing on 23rd. :-)

letskiwithisthing · 27/09/2012 17:26

I had creamy cm yesterday and today but think its meant to dry up if pg? Won't swear to it though Confused

Thundercatsarego · 27/09/2012 16:03

I haven't had much at all, dulcet, just the occasional damp moment where I've thought shit oh golly am I bleeding, and run to the loo. I wasn't very cm-y during regular cycle though so I know I'm a bloody weirdo not typical.

DulcetMoans · 27/09/2012 14:34

She was one day behind me but not sure if she is anymore.

What's the deal with cm when pregnant, pregnant ladies? Lots or none?

peardrop2 · 27/09/2012 14:32

Nicola isn't on the list :-/

DulcetMoans · 27/09/2012 13:06

She did look great pear and I will embrace my bump in a wedding dress if it comes to it! Might not even matter if this month works but if it doesn't, something to look forward to! No such religious/upbringing worries here - my mum was 16 when she had me!

On phone so can't do list but:

Dulcetmoans, cycle 5, BFP due 11th oct

I think that's right!!

Hi everyone - I can't believe it's almost the end of September.

Love the favour boxes nicola - it sounds like you are pretty organised. I know what you mean about symptom spotting - my body always convinces me that I'm pregnant.

Going to see a homeopath later so hoping they will have some suggestions.

peardrop2 · 27/09/2012 10:12

Oh bless you! Thunder and I can't wait for you ladies to join us!! Literally can't wait!

Fx for us to join pear and thunder :)

BlocketteBananaSmoothie · 27/09/2012 09:57

Morning Everyone!
Ah nic you must be getting so excited!
who is testing next? we don't have a list on this thread yet do we?

Lets start a new one:

Blockette: Cycle 1 BFP due ?
Pear: Cycle ? BFP got!
Thunder: Cycle ? BFP got!

  • haha not a good one to start with but it should get the ball rolling. (couldn't leave pear and thunder off! They can hang around at the bottom of the list).
TalTangerine · 27/09/2012 09:57

Mine seems to lets, I never feel like I have the standard beautiful chart but the general shape is right so I feel OK about it. I have very low temps anyway - pre ov from 35.6-9, post ov 36-36.2, with the odd 36.4. If I don't have any luck this month I'll ask doc to look into it again for thyroid problems, but they said I was fine last time I asked.

letskiwithisthing · 27/09/2012 09:50

Yeah I agree Tal, I will stick with it until I get my BFP soon I hope

Been a bit worried about my temps as although they are above cover line they are only marginally above it, but today they went up by 3 whole tenths! Hope it's a sign of more high temps to come! Maybe my progesterone takes a while to get going :)

TalTangerine · 27/09/2012 09:26

The temps aren't as hard as they sound, as you can just take it each morning then let the app/website do all the work of making sense of them. I like it because it gives me something positive I can do each day, even in the 2ww. Makes me feel more in control.

letskiwithisthing · 27/09/2012 08:45

Morning all - a bump was the furthest thing from my mind on my wedding day 3 years ago! We were only 25 at the time and not ready to start a family! How times change - now we're desperate!!

6dpo today and so aware of my general womb area and I'm worried that its going to be a short LP, just have a weird feeling AF isn't too far away! Keeping my fx though!

kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 27/09/2012 08:27

I know, Lol...and it may be my last drinking session for a while, so I'll have a good time without going too crazy :-)

I've been lucky, Thunder! I did lose it for a while, but got it back when I lost 2 stone last year. Now I want a bump! :-/

I'd rather have a baby now...fx it happens soon. My head is getting bonked off tonight too. H2B has taken to this extra sex thing a bit too enthusiastically...had to tell him last night wasn't necessary!!

Thundercatsarego · 27/09/2012 08:21

I've never had a properly flat stomach, no matter how skinny the rest of me gets. Envy of that!!
