I thought I'd start a thread for all those who will be starting out TTC this month, I'd be interested to see how other people get on, tips, moral support etc. We'll be starting TTC at the weekend!!
Please join me!

It must be AF there was a day of red blood at the right time of the month and a cheapo gave me a BFN yesterday. All clear again this morning

Cupcake92 · 29/04/2014 09:59

Well ladies looks like AF is just showing her face! Just been to the loo and wiped and had some brown blood slowly getting heavier.
So May club here I come!!!!!! :D gonna get opks this time round. How good on the internet ones?

Ducky23 · 29/04/2014 08:01

Kato is that Deffo AF?

I'm just waiting for this bloody scan date to come through, can't relax until I get it. And I need a cigarette so bad I could actually cry Blush

kitkatkaty87 · 29/04/2014 07:53

I never knew ttc would be so hard and such an emotional roller coaster lol! Just wish my AF would come so I can get on with it

And Kato it could be old blood and cm?
I'm not sure :s

KatoPotato · 29/04/2014 01:04

Cupcake I had a fag when I got my AF too ;)

However after disappearing all day, it's back and brown and very dry/sticky?

Cupcake92 · 28/04/2014 20:53

Got a bit down about the bfn so had a pint and a fag lol
Back on the detox now tho!

Popple85 · 28/04/2014 19:18

Sorry to hear that Lillamy, hope you have a great time and forget all about the stress of TTC for a few days!

Thinking of you Cupcake- like everyone else, I'm still not convinced about the BFNs.

Kato, I'm glad it's not just me with the sweet tooth- your comment made me smile!

And sounds like a relaxing evening KitKat! Love a bit of carbonara :)

Cupcake92 · 28/04/2014 18:25

Ah no sorry to hear that lil!
At least u can let ur hair down on ur hols now!

And Ducky I did use a first response test, n I hadnt peed since 8am this morning, so would have been about 7 hours. So very concentrated pee lol!
I'm not going to test any more can't bare these bfns all the time :( just gonna wait till I'm home Friday and call the doctor if AF still not arrived.

kitkatkaty87 · 28/04/2014 17:43

Aw cupcake. It's not over til the fat lady aunt flow sings!
I swore I was just about to come on, expected to see blood but nothing. Definately got cramping today but what I think is ewcm? ? Maybe I'm ovulating?
How was everyone Monday? Mine was eurgh. Looking forward to a carbonara and game of thrones tonight!

Ah Lil that's rubbish Sad . Go and enjoy a good few drinks this evening. And Grin Grin Grin at DH's lists of do's and don'ts!

Cupcake- I can't believe you're not pregnant. Don't lose hope. Maybe try fmu on Weds? Thanks

KatoPotato · 28/04/2014 16:30

Ahh Lil, well just go enjoy yourself, have some vino and then some reunited shagging!

Ducky23 · 28/04/2014 16:21

Hope you have a nice time though Grin and your DH is busy making lots of extra wiggly wigglies Grin

Ducky23 · 28/04/2014 16:20

Get a first response and use fmu? Wast AF due ages ago?

I only saw a thread today about a lady who didn't get a BFP until she was 20 days late!!!

lillamyy1 · 28/04/2014 16:20

KatoPotato · 28/04/2014 15:33

Popple85 · 28/04/2014 15:05

Good luck Cupcake!!! This thread is definitely the one to be on... There's always something exciting happening!

Lilamy, have an amazing time- I'm a teacher and would love to do an exchange like that! And def let us know how you get on if you can.

I'm back at work today after 3 weeks off... It's a massive struggle! Had two Krispy Kreme doughnuts so far this afternoon- would love to say it's a pregnancy symptom but am fairly certain I would have eaten them anyway. Sigh. Smile

Cupcake92 · 28/04/2014 14:23

Going to wait till the morning to test just so I know it's the best pee to do it with haha!
I'm crossing my fingers so bad!!!

looking4rainbow · 28/04/2014 13:44

Hey guys just got back and had a skim read!

Congratulations bugaboo Smile

Cupcake Fx for you

Sorry to all those that have had bfn

Let's defiantly try and stick together, I think we have 3/4 bfp so far on this thread Grin

hanflan · 28/04/2014 13:17

Sorry I meant cupcake! Getting all confused with the excitement haha

kitkatkaty87 · 28/04/2014 13:17

hanflan · 28/04/2014 13:16

Ducky I think if you are past your AF due date then any time of the day will work! Just don't drink too much water so that it's nice and concentrated haha. Good luck, eeek!
