Evening all

decided to just take my spotting as light af but im gutted as I think I may have missed ovulation for this month as thats the only thing the cramps could have been since we've had so many bfn's. So new stats
toots123 ttc#1 bfp due 20th march but really think I may as well start an april thread.

really fed up now Sad

katecupoftea · 03/03/2014 19:03

Yay bug congrats Lorelie and allthequeens! Would love to see you both stick around to be cheerleaders! 6/31 cor blimey

missmrsmummy · 03/03/2014 19:00

Oh woweeee! This is amazing - congrats allthequeens!

missmrsmummy · 03/03/2014 18:58

Thanks Kitty I think it was just the whole first day back thing that hit me! Going to try and teach a bit tomorrow and see how that goes. Thanks for the offer of help. I am trying to tell myself that it was just first day nerves today!

Ok my bro is here from 12/12 - 2/1 for Christmas/New Year - I think if I've calculated correctly that conceiving this cycle would mean a baby arriving in time for his visit! Eeeeeeeeek fx

KittyVonCatsington · 03/03/2014 18:58

Great news, allthequeenshorses-enjoy the excitement of getting that positive Grin

Allthequeenshorses · 03/03/2014 18:58

Thanks treacle pie. I can't stop smiling. Silly faint lines have been driving me mad. Nothing like seeing it written down.

Treaclepie19 · 03/03/2014 18:55

Congrats allthequeens!!! 6th bfp now?

You are welcome to stay with us :)

Allthequeenshorses · 03/03/2014 18:54

And well done to Lorelei as well. Matching BFP today!!

Allthequeenshorses · 03/03/2014 18:53

Well, finally done clear blue and BFP yeah!!!!!!!!! Due date says 5 November. Many thanks to everyone and I will be thinking of you all. Am I allowed to stay here or do I have to go somewhere else!!! Am in complete shock. Dh not even home yet but I had to tell you all!!!!! Aaahhhhhhhhhhh

Starbright24 · 03/03/2014 18:47

Thx kitty. It didn't really matter being wrong but then I worked out the numbers and thought I'd jump onboard with them ;) haha. Any hope helps. Going crazy with 2ww.

Treaclepie19 · 03/03/2014 18:40

Ok, after having around 4 pages to read back upon getting home from work I have decided work is getting in the way of mumsnet!!!

Im also cycle 3 so hoping i have the magic!!!

Sorry you are feeling a little unsure mama

Glad first day was ok missmrs

Congrats lorelei

Hi everyone else!!!

bellaboo88 · 03/03/2014 18:35

OK so I'm bored of the tww already! 8dpo & I've got slight cramping but had the same of day, 1dpo, 2dpo, 3dpo, 4dpo, 5dpo & not wrote it for 6&7dpo as I told myself it was all in my head!

They're very gentle cramps though...trying not to get my hopes up & only own 1test (reformed poas-aholic!)

I'm wanting to test on 13dpo(8th) as they're both significant numbers to me

Can anyone give me hope or slap me & say its normal? X

Cineraria · 03/03/2014 18:17

I'm feeling really happy reading this thread. Can't believe there are 5 BFPs already. Congratulations to you all!

And all those who have sad and difficult circumstances are being so strong and positive, it's really inspiring to read your posts. Fingers crossed for all of you that this is your lucky month.

Not sure I can find any magic 3s in my stats so maybe it's not my turn but I'm certainly enjoying being on this bus! We're off on holiday on Friday, and we'll be away over ovulation, so we have no excuse for not trying our best this month anyway. Just wondering how much hot weather affects BBT though and hoping my case with all the TTC paraphernalia (I mean OPKs, thermometer, supplements etc, not anything weird to help with DTD!) won't get opened at the airport.

KittyVonCatsington · 03/03/2014 18:16

Crap - just saw your post, MrBsMrsB (really shouldn't skim read!) - I'll stop updating Grin

RetroHippy · 03/03/2014 18:00

I'd not thought of using anything tbh. Never usually have a moisture issue once I'm #ahem# into the mood!

I might find myself in Boots tomorrow though...

KittyVonCatsington · 03/03/2014 17:58

Sorry Starbright I went by the post where you said you had been off BC since April so I guessed. I'll update now.

RetroHippy · 03/03/2014 17:58

Haha at it 'accidentally' falling in! I did actually really just happen to have mine in the cupboard!

I'm taking two teaspoons three times a day with a glass if water as apparently it's needed to water down the mucus. Which makes sense but is resulting in my needing to pee a lot.

Think the key is to get one with guafenesin in but nothing else if you can. Mine has levomenthol but I don't think that has any particular drying effects!

lindamagoo · 03/03/2014 17:57

Retro I use conceive plus to make sure the little swimmers have a better chance of reaching their destination Smile

KittyVonCatsington · 03/03/2014 17:56

Hey Snowbells-last cycle, I didn't ovulate till CD19 and did get to the fertilisation stage so don't give up hope-keep using the monitor (maybe twice a day as I got my CB Digi smiley face at 4pm)

missmrs was thinking about you this morning! Remember, one day at a time. What situations made you feel overwhelmed? Can we help Grin

Another BFP! So happy! Well done Lorelei!!!

Retrohave you considers balance Activ, preseed or conceive plus to help with the CM? I used Balance Activ last month and it really helped with the DTD marathon Wink

Starbright24 · 03/03/2014 17:54

I just ordered some preseed Retro as I also got worried about the little swimmers not having anything to swim in. Will try it out next cycle if no bfp.

How much cough mixture do you think is needed as some accidentally fell into my shopping trolley hut I haven't had any yet.

RetroHippy · 03/03/2014 17:50

Afternoon all! More BFPs?! Haven't checked the thread today, but congrats you ladies!

Can I take a moment to lower the tone and bring up the subject of cervical mucus please? I found this which is very informative (and I'm pleased to not my cervix being high is a Good Thing). However. In the photos of different types of cm there seems to be an excessive amount. I am now worried that mine is so meagre no sperm will get through however determined.

I'm knocking back Benylin like it's going out of fashion, and it does seem to be having a positive effect, but nowhere near that much of an effect!

missmrsmummy · 03/03/2014 17:46

Ps glad all seems ok for you Smile

missmrsmummy · 03/03/2014 17:45

90mins - how lovely English!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 03/03/2014 17:43

Emily- you ovulate 12-36hrs after a positive OPK. Then AF would be due approx 14 days after that.

My dad's a twin, so there's a good chance either me or one of my cousins will have them! Hope it's me!!! Smile

My reflexology was loooovvvely!! Thankfully she found nothing untoward in the reproductive areas, she said it felt maybe a little fragile but that's more than likely due to healing from the mc. If anything it's a positive just for the 90mins of relaxation!! Smile
