2014 will bring me a BFP!

Unicorns- thanks for the advice. That's crazy isn't it. Were you on the pill? My cycles were normal before going on the pill but that was 10 years ago and I was only 15 so it could have totally changed now!

Thanks. Hoping for the best.

Helen my advice would be to give it time to settle down and record what's going on. It might take a little while to settle down. Seems most folk on here settle down pretty quickly (unlike me...been off hormonal contraception for 18 months and my last cycle was 77 days!).

MissHobart good to know someone else has the same opinion

I'm going dry for January, get back on the healthy wagon!

Jessewait I don't join buses either....mainly because they are a load of shite and to actually keep up with them you have to be there typing every single day and whilst TTC is a huge part of our life at the moment, we've also got an ongoing life too! Far too depressing, especially when the one shag wonders join the bus, have a shag and are upduffed as soon as possible!

Hey everyone. Wondered if someone could give me some advice please! I finished on the pill at the end of Oct then had 8 weeks without a period and then an 11 day bleed. So basically I have no idea when I will ovulate this month. I have ordered some ovulation tests but I dont know if I might be a bit late to start testing this month?! I started light spotting on Fri 20th Dec, is this classed as the first day of my cycle?

Can I join too?
We've been ttc dc2 for 2 years now.

Had al the tests & so far it's just unexplained secondary infertility. :(

On my 4th cycle of clomid now but feeling really disheartened. Everyone I know seems to be pregnant or have a tiny baby.

Got to stay positive, 2014 will be a lucky year for us I'm sure

Can I join too? Feeling pretty blue. Currently just started cycle 8 of ttc 1 and no hint of a bfp. Went to a new year party where several friends announced pregnancy and my best friend was suspiciously not drinking (she already has 2 children).
I was so sure I would be pregnant by now. The most difficult thing is that I would really like some initial investigations done. I don't want to lie to my gp and I am sure they will agree to do some basic tests. I can't help feeling there is a problem. Trying very hard to stay positive.
I can't really deal with joining the monthly buses as I feel continually disappointed, so this is much better - I like the long term goal.
Good luck to all!

I'm with you Unicorn ! No stopping till I have a baby!

I don't care when it's born so long as I have one, two, three?!

Eh no we won't be stopping. If you've read the thread further up you'll see that many of us are struggling with various infertility problems and that any baby on any date will be a giant blessing.

Ps- no, no stopping to avoid an Xmas baby here either. The chances of actually giving birth on one or two particular days is pretty minimal.

Thanks everyone.

Feeling a bit more rational this morning! Still no AF. I'm going to test with FMU tomorrow which is (I think) 14dpo and when AF is due.

But to be honest I'm approximating a bit, so I might be way off.

If I'm still doing this next month I'm going to stop guesstimating I think! Time to get serious..

can I join.

dp had a vasectomy reversal in Nov and we started ttc straight away, got to wait till Feb for his 3mth sample before we find out if it's actually worked but the Dr was optimistic so keeping fingers crossed.

Ps Bellaboo I won't be stopping to avoid a Xmas baby. On fact I couldn't think of anything more lovely! My birthday is in 7 days so quite like the idea of a Capricorn baby :-)

Hi ladies can I join? Started TTCing in July, hoping to get a BFP in 2014 feeling much more positive in the last month and less stressed about the whole TTC process. Hoping this new positive outlook will help us get our BFP. Fingers crossed 2014 is a positive year for us all!

Fausher, we've got the same cycle!

I'm also cd26/11dpo. Had 3 if bfns so not testing today.

I have painful nipples, can't sleep on a night & had to nap at 5pm last night which isn't like me at all.

Only came off microgynon end of Nov so can only predict my cycles.

Will anyone on here stop trying at some point to avoid a Xmas baby?? I know they only come when they want but its a running joke in the family!

Hi Ladies!
CD 26 and 11 DPO. No symptoms of AF yet as I usually have some crampings and from the last 2 cycles, light brown spotting for 3-4 days till AF comes. The dizziness is bit low, but from the last two nights, I couldn't sleep well and there was lots of restlessness. Very low appetite, bloating and change in taste of mouth.
Trying to control myself not to test till 13 DPO
I hope it remains good till then.
Baby dust to all of you!

Lottie you could test with a First Response test with your first pee of the day? Although, with my two pregnancies I never tested positive until after my af was due. Good luck x

Hi ladies.

I'm also hoping for a BFP in 2014.
Started TTC in January 2013, have recently had tests that indicate PCOS so I've been referred to the fertility clinic. Appointment is end of January.

Fingers crossed for us all that 2014 is our year!

Hi ladies, room for another hopeful? My dh and I have been ttc#3 for over a year. I was lucky to fall pregnant with my two ds really easily but since then I've been diagnosed with anovulation caused by PCOS. On Metformin and trying acupuncture after a mc at 7 weeks in October. That pregnancy was achieved on my 2nd cycle of clomid, which I'm giving a rest until early next year. That drug makes me a crazy, hormonal mess! Hoping that all of you on the tww are hanging in there ... I've just ovulated according to + opk so hoping this maybe our month too x

Argh I am crap at this waiting thing.

Bit of spotting earlier and waves of nausea coming and going.

How soon is it reasonable to test?

useless.

AF due 8th jan (i think!) aching boobs, they feel hot and tingly and have had alot of cramping over the last week or so as well - its fun this coming off your contraception malarky! sarky tgough my sex drive has had a serious peak!

AF due Friday.

Dtd during ovulation check.
Sore boobs check.
Feel sick check.
Cramping check.

It's probably all in my head isn't it? Argh...

Hi dulcet, you are right: there was a BFP in 2013 thread and a BFP in 2012 thread too. I was on it :). I remember you. Wishing you all the luck in the world for 2014 x

We found out yesterday that we're officially in the unexplained fertility camp & that we'll be referred for IVF if we don't conceive in the next 4 months. It's great to know that there's nothing physically wrong with either of us & whilst it's frustrating that we've not managed a BFP yet, we start 2014 with hope that it's definitely possible & we have a back up plan now.

It's great to hear several glimmers of hope from others.

Hi all new to this. Been ttc no 2 since coming of depo in November 2012. Not had regular periods since then so unsure if I'm ovulating if going of last period should be due period around 6th hoping for 2014 bfp :D
