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!

blondie138 · 28/04/2014 12:57

Awww huge congrats to you bugaboom! That's awesome news and makes all the neurotic activity totally worth it!!

Cupcake - something is def going in for you! Our bodies are so mean at times! It's bloody awful being a woman!

I'm in a strange place today - AF is due today but hasn't come yet and for the first time I'm hoping so much she does so I can start my baby pills tomorrow!

Aggghhhhh it's such a head melter!!!

Cupcake92 · 28/04/2014 12:57

Have a nice holiday lill!!
Going to buy my test now !

kitkatkaty87 · 28/04/2014 12:29

I've still had no bleeding, so i have no idea what was going on with me last night! Either just weird ewcm or implatation or something to do with stopping the pill mucus?!
Got a negative opk again this morning though :S

Feeling really sick but don't know if it's hormones or excitement! Setting off for the train to london in an hour - hope I don't vom on the train!! Confused
Will take a sick bag... Confused
I'll do my best to keep in touch!

Cupcakes BFP needs to hurry the chuff up!

Lil you will HAVE TO find wifi! You can't leave us hanging haha

Kato I was only ever on for about 3 days and sometimes only 2, bearing in mins I have super dooper Iong cycles I thought it was ace! Until we started TTC then it became a nightmare Blush

Bugaboom · 28/04/2014 11:04

Thank you for all the congratulations and excitement and I'm looking forward to hearing all the bfp's in May.

Kato, when I ttc my first baby I had something similar but my AFs were a bit strange back then! I used to come on for a day, stop for 2-3 and start again. I also exercised a lot. Doctor said it was fine as I asked about it when I was ttc. It happened on each cycle so when AF came for a day on my third cycle of ttc I assumed I was out for that month. However I realised a week had passed since that day with no more AF and did a test- was shocked when it immediately came up positive. So it was an implantation bleed. It might be worth trying a test again at the weekend just in case. But otherwise a light AF is probably nothing to worry about.

Lillamyy- you are following the same pattern as me, keeping my fingers crossed!

KatoPotato · 28/04/2014 10:40

have an amazing holidat Lilamyy1

KatoPotato · 28/04/2014 10:40

Sorry, i missed your AF update Carmen, come join me trying for a May BFP... As DS was born in January, a BFP this month would have made life a bit awkward... looking for positives here! :)

lillamyy1 · 28/04/2014 10:38

HOOORAAAY bugaboom!!!!!!!!! Congratulations! Grin Grin Grin

And condolences carmen Thanks at least now you can prepare for the May club!!

Cupcake, that BFP is definitely coming to you!! Grin I felt really sick first thing this morning, too.

No AF yet, I hope she stays away while I'm on the plane to espana... had some creamy cm so hoping that's a good sign. I'll test tomorrow morning if she still hasn't shown, although not sure how often I'll be able to go online while I'm away, will try and keep you all updated! Smile

KatoPotato · 28/04/2014 10:36

Bugaboom!!! That's amazing!! I'm delighted!

Keeping my FX for you too Cupcake! Who's next due Af etc?

My AF has gone already, so that was only 2 days and not heavy at all, have been averaging 3 days is this still okay? I used my last pg test to check it wasn't implantation (hopeful eh?) but nope..

I do exercise a lot. Is this a factor?

Ticktick · 28/04/2014 07:48

Wow, that's cheered me up this morning, congratulations Bugaboom :) hope you get some answers soon Cupcake, you sound like you are really going through it. If its not a bfp then your body is being very cruel to you!!! Good luck x

Bugaboom · 28/04/2014 07:36

Cupcake I'm sure you must be getting a bfp soon. All your symptoms sound so much like early pregnancy. Keeping fingers crossed for you and everyone else.
Thanks for all the congratulations. Smile For all of those who got a bfn on day AF is due, hang in there. .. I'm three days late now and got a faint line. x

Cupcake92 · 28/04/2014 07:30

Hooray bugaboom!!! Congratulations!!!! What an amazing way to start a Monday morning... Grin

(And yes, cupcake, do it!)

Bugaboom · 28/04/2014 06:30

Well if a line is a line even if it is faint then I am taking this morning's test as a BFP!

elcarmen2010 · 28/04/2014 05:49

AF arrived yesterday. Bang on time she was!! So, that teaches me for spending so much money on tests to POAS waaaaaay too early. Next month I'm not going to test until I'm late. I'm going to promise myself. Well, I'm gonna try anyway.
Good to read all your comments, although I can't get on here often and this thread moves so fast! I still have my fingers crossed for you this month ladies, and if not, May club it is!!

Cupcake92 · 28/04/2014 00:28

Should I buy a FR test tomorrow? For testing Tuesday ? There's only a boots here so test will be brought from there,
Hope everyone is alright :)
