Lady flower - hello! Welcome! I hear ya on the post-pill cycles... All a bit yawn waiting around hey? I'm ttc1 on cycle 2 which has so far been 36 days long (last one, the first, was 98!!).

Gingerbread - we seem to have similar stats!! And AF due 9 may... Good luckSmile

ChandlersFarang · 01/05/2014 11:05

Hello newbies!! Very excited to see how many of us get off this bus with BFPs...Smile

Linda I'm experiencing the same as you, tons of creamy Lucas, started at 4dpo and still like it now at 6dpo. I'm still very new to observing cycles as this is only my second ever, but it's not a normal amount for me! I have been drinking a big glass of grapefruit juice every morning for about a week - I'm wondering if that's got anything to do with it? I thought that would only affect the EWCM but I guess logically it could have an impact on all CM all month... Anyone else have any experience with this? X x

HKat · 01/05/2014 11:04

Me Victoria! And it's pissing me right off - really heavy and painful, meh ?? I'm cd3 too - looks like we'll be on this bus til the end!

victoria401 · 01/05/2014 10:27

I'm only cd3! Long way before I'll even be peeing on opks sticks! Its getting exciting in here already with all the symptom spotting! I hope there will be people left at the end to be with me! Anyone else still on af?

Brummiegirl15 · 01/05/2014 09:57

I've got my seat on the new bus!!!!! I'm peeling on my opk and DTD - roll on 2ww so I can poas!!

kurama · 01/05/2014 09:45

Dragon rawr! welcome newbies. fx linda woke up this morning thinking id already poas.... still flashy smileys but lines a lot fainter than before Sad must get up and go to work lol but so tired Dragon rawr! Dragon fx for everyone this month!

MelMc73 · 01/05/2014 09:43

welcome new ladies.....get your Dragon on......roar! welcome to the pissystick club lol.

well I was dog tired late afternoon and all evening and had an early night then was really grumpy this morning. Tummy feels like really bloated and that af on way.....hope not!

linda I've not been monitoring Lucas much at all until this month and I noticed it went creamy white and a lot more of it after ov. I couldn't say for definite if it is a SYMPTOM though

not decided whether to test on Sat - that will be 10dpo/CD23 of what I think is a 26 day cycle. have some piss sticks in the house but they are just Tesco own brand which aren't sensitive enough so i'd need to go and buy more. If BFN this month then I'll "invest" in some IC's I think.

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 09:35

broody I defo don't usually get it, never really get ewcm either that's why I took the cough bottle, which did nothing for me last cycle but worked this cycle

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 09:33

spinning I use the kindara app and it's got af as tomorrow. I usually get 5 days of spotting before af but since coming off the pill it's went down to 2 days so I guess I'll know if af is coming Sat if I start spotting today

Spotti · 01/05/2014 09:32

Not read from the top yet but just wanted to add my quota Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon

Rawr!

Woo for May. Let's hope lots of BFP are coming our way!

broodysnoopstie · 01/05/2014 09:31

Linda I think it's only normal if it's normal for you... (I am learning all my "symptoms" are just normal cycle things after 9 months of no bfp) but if you don't normally get it is a SYMPTOMGrin

NewlymrsB · 01/05/2014 09:28

NewlymrsB 26 ttc#1 cycle 4 due may 1-5th

Well crotch watch has begun for me! Hate this waiting game! Could arrive today could be Monday!

Good luck to everyone on the bus!!

spinningirl10 · 01/05/2014 09:26

We're due about the same time Linda, I think Saturday but ff doesn't think af due till Monday!

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 09:02

I'll wait until Saturday to test but I don't think it'll be a BFP, just very odd to have so much cm.

RetroHippy · 01/05/2014 09:00

linda, all the places say no lucas post-ov, but I get quite a bit in between ov and AF.

If it's unusual though, it's definitely a SYMPTOM!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 01/05/2014 09:00

Sounds promising. FX for you... poas Saturday morning!!

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 08:59

13 dpo now English and my temp is still up. Af due on Sat I think

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 08:58

Ah broody so it could be normal then?

EnglishGirlAbroad · 01/05/2014 08:57

Is your temp still up. What dpo are you now? Sorry - should read back!

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 08:56

It's very creamy and very stretchy

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 08:55

My Lucas has been continuous since ov and today I have LOADS, it's freaking me out Smile I've never been like this before. Surely it can't be down to the cough bottle I had as I stopped that as soon as I got my +opk (15 days ago)

broodysnoopstie · 01/05/2014 08:55

linda I have creamy lucas after af then watery lucas before ewcm then after ov back to creamy lucas all the way to af

EnglishGirlAbroad · 01/05/2014 08:51

Linda I have creamy lucas now but i'm only 7dpo....Don't recall having anything worth noting before af. Also, yes - temps drop a day or two before af.

RetroHippy · 01/05/2014 08:51

linda, are you using Fertility Friend? If not, get the app. There is a feature under 'more' which lets you see other peoples charts. That will show you temp dips, cm if they've been monitoring it and waste hours of your life

I usually don't get much cm but it ramps up before ov. I don't get much ewcm either though. And my temp drops on the day AF arrives in the afternoon, sometimes a bit of a drop the day before too.

ladyflower23 · 01/05/2014 08:48

Thanks for welcomes Smile
This is only my second month off pill, so not sure what's normal for me yet, but last month after ov I had no lucas then EWCM day AF came
