Is there a January bus yet?!!

Morning all. Sazzle sorry about AF, hope you have been enjoying all the lovely Christmas food this week and that this cycle will be your lucky one. I was using veno's expectorant for all the correct reasons this month so was using it three times a day for nearly a week, it just coincided the first week of my cycle. I did really notice a difference.

The other thing that's supposed to increase ewcm is grape fruit juice but I bought that and it was just too horrible.

Morning Sazzle, sorry AF was mean and turned up late. Come joking the 2014 bus.
Can I be added to the list as well please?

MundayCakes ttc #1, cycle 6, BFP due 12th Jan.

Thanks

Hi kt1991 and if you could update me at your next chance I'd be grateful, thanks!

Hi all, me again. can i board the bus please? Lovely and sorry to see a few familiar 'faces'. Af kicked me off the dec bus and being a day late I just got my hopes up. She is so cruel even around Xmas.
Anyway stats are sazzlehopes ttc#2 cycle#14 bfp due jan 25th

I'm throwing venos at this cycle I don't have an obvious change in cm I think so the help would be good. Can anyone using it give me an idea of how much and when they start taking it please! bumpngrind seems like it worked for you?

Good luck to those in the 2ww, I'm afraid it never gets any easier!!!

Pebble, I know what you mean. Because its my first month off the pill I'm really unsure when I ovulated as I was only able to predict cycle legnth. I think I got it right but a few days later (tmi warning) I got what can only be described as a single blob of clear ewcm on Cd16.

Nipples are now super sore. I'm not sure of boobs as they're numb from a breast augmentation. On cd16 I has cramping/Sicky feeling all night. Now at cd19. I thought I ovd at cd13 or cd15?

Super obsessively symptom spotting!!! Any1 else? X

pebble I know what you mean. I'm wishing away my time off work!! It'll all be worth it if there's a baby at the end of it.

cybercat I really hope things go well for you. Please keep us posted on your progress

This is my first 2ww, anyone else finding it to be the longest two weeks of their lives?! Shame a two week holiday doesn't ever feel as long.

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and all the best for bfps in 2014.

Merry Christmas everyone. Can I sidle in too please. We are trying for our first but I miscarried in October. AF finally put in an appearance on 11th and I suspect I may have had a chemical just before (faint positives for a while but Id not been advised to.test 2 weeks post miscarriage). If my cycle is back to normal then ovulation calculators say it should be about now. Im not monitoring or anything just yet but I am under a gynae for monitoring due to
previous ovarian tumour and was recently told that due to that, age and recent miscarriage that I will be offered testing at my next appointment (Feb) if I would like it. Im not clear what they mean I was a little taken aback but I will grab whatever help is offered.

Please excuse typo's as I find my phone very difficult to type with!

Hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas and is enjoying all of their christmas treats. I'm feeling really positive at the moment (but then it is only our first month of trying). I've been tracking my cycles for a few months and because of the veno's cough medicine I got a really clear sign of when I was ovulating (it was earlier than usual this month). We've dtd on all the right days and am now in the 2ww. Thankfully because of the earlier ov, there were no relatives staying over!

How on earth am I going to cope with not testing for another week and a half? I can imagine I'm going to be symptom spotting like mad so I need you all to help keep my feet on the ground.

Good luck to everyone ttc this month

DoctorDonna, totally enjoyed all the lovely Champagne yesterday-like you, will probably be the last for a long while! Well done you for coping really well-inspirational

Hi KT1991, I should give my new revised stats-sorry! TTC#1, cycle 2, BFP due 24th Jan. Here's to hoping the SMEP plan works

DoctorDonna enjoy your beery chocolately few days! Fingers crossed for you!

Nordicmom it ain't over till it's over and AF is here! Try to stay positive :)

I have cramping and very pointy nipples. I also feel like I did last time in early pregnancy. I don't know whether that's my mind running away with itself! Ugh, still seems like such a long time till I can test!

Hope everyone had great Christmases and a lovely Boxing Day today too xx

Merry Christmas everyone!! Hope you have all had a fab Christmas and let's hope the new year brings us all BFPs!!!

Merry christmas to all. On a 2 ww now then again and not feeling very positive :(...

Happy Christmas to all from a beery Belgium!
Having a few naughty days before the new year when I'm going completely alcohol and caffeine (therefore chocolate) free in anticipation of good news. If I have another MC I want to KNOW there was nothing I could have done better. We DTD for the first time post-MC yesterday and it was lovely - just a little annoying that I'm now getting a cold at just the wrong time! Typical

Zara sure your sticks will be fine! It's good to hear positive stories! Keep us posted on the POAS front!

Owlie I'm cycle 4 and cycle 3 with the CBFM, I think the first cycle it has to get used to you and a lot of times it doesn't manage to even pick up your peak the 1st month. My 1st month I got 6 highs then 2 peaks but last month it settled down and had 3 highs 2 peaks and then 1 high. Fx crossed this month for us all! Hope your timings pay off!

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you're all having a wonderful and restful day.

I'm well into my second cycle and my first with a CBFM. Having been POAS since CD7 and nothing until Monday morning when it went from low to peak (no in between or warning). It stayed like that on Tuesday and then today, it's dipped to medium. I'm feeling quite pleased that my cycle is exactly as I thought and I OV on CD14/15 each month and it coincides with the OV pains. so at least I know I'm dtd at the right time. I was expecting the monitor to show me the run up to OV though...and I'm a bit surprised I go from low to high without any warning.

Anyhow, roll on the New Year and all those lovely new year BFPs.

Merry Christmas ladies

Here's to bfp's in 2014

Happy Christmas everyone!!!

Happy Christmas!!!!!!!!!

Definitely on the January bus now! Need to update stats though as Jan was meant to be cycle one but entered into the December cycle due to impatience! So: ttc #1 cycle 2 BFP/AF due 23rd Jan

Ruby yes we used the CBFM last time and found it really good. The first cycle it showed I didn't ovulate so I wasn't surprised when my period was late but BFN. Second cycle we shagged on all the high and peak days and I fell pregnant that cycle.

It's expensive to run with the sticks etc but much easier than tracking with temps and handy to pinpoint when to have sex. Eg this month I had peaks on day 17 and 18. Because we had work Xmas parties etc I wouldn't have had sex on those days unless the CBFM had ordered me too!

I'm using the leftover sticks from last time too, even though they expired in August. We'll see in a week or so if they were still any good!

I just don't have any symptoms this month, pretty sure we missed the window anyway (if I even ovulate stupid pcos hormones) feeling crappy! Ive convinced myself im going to need assistance to get pregnant. Want it to be January now so I can have another chance, on to cycle 5!

Never felt this blah at Xmas before, I usually love it!!!! Must be happier and try harder. I just can't think of anything else but ttc at the moment. And that is really annoying me. Gonna treat myself to a cheeky glass of champers tomorrow :) and try to convince myself that 2014 is our year.

Happy Xmas ladies.
