Looking for a Mum-to-be to buddy up! I'm TTC number 1 and not had any luck so far, having a couple of months off before we start trying again. x

Fx for you lovely sounds positive!

Issie339 · 30/04/2015 22:20

I've been 3 days caffeine free now Grin very proud of myself. I'm cd8 so should be starting SMEP today but OH still not home from work so might have to start tomorrow now.

Wow sparkles 14 months mat leave is good going. I can't wait for mat leave again, only took 6 months last time but going to take longer this time.

Lovelyjubbly95 · 30/04/2015 22:16

I think I may do a test on Monday or Tues if my progesterone test comes bk saying I did ovulate. Am wanting to do nothing but eat atm, I'm emotional, boobs feel fuller and I'm tired....could be nothing but I hope it's something... Confused

sparklesandfizz · 30/04/2015 22:08

Oooh hey ladies.
maybe are you poas this weekend?
Hiya lovely
issie I am bored. Cd 6, af just clearing off. No dtd action required until next week.
Just sorted out my retur to work after maternity leave finishes. Baby sparkle will be 14 months so can't complain but it really has gone quicklySad
Any exciting plans for BH weekend anyone? (Excepting the baby making of courseGrin

VioletIbiza88 · 30/04/2015 22:05

I'm here too, another circle today on opk and try two for smep tomorrow. Still caffeine free, although really wanted a Costa today with my work colleagues. An one work colleague who was enjoying a cappuccino was 31 wks preggers!!

MaybeMrsMum2016 · 30/04/2015 21:35

I'm here. Just waiting and waiting and waiting to poas!

Issie339 · 30/04/2015 21:32

Hi sparkles I'm here! But as you say, in the crap bit where there's nothing going on. Is anyone still in for April?

Lovelyjubbly95 · 30/04/2015 21:25

I'm here! Lol

sparklesandfizz · 30/04/2015 20:59

This thread is sooooooo quiet the last few days. Everyone's in the crap bit of ttc where you can't actually do anything about anything ie failed last cycle and not yet on the job this month.
Come back everyone!

Lovelyjubbly95 · 30/04/2015 12:37

Hello....lol. yet another day of high fertility from my monitor..... Never known it to show so many!!

sparklesandfizz · 30/04/2015 12:00

Helloo, it's very echoey in here.....

sparklesandfizz · 29/04/2015 22:27

Hey Nicky!

Brooke and violet good luck with the opks and smep.

You guys are a bit ahead of me as cd5 today, demoralised and knackered (baby sparkles teething) and just waiting to get trying to baby make next week.

Welcome newbies

maybe think you're next up to poas. This thread needs a BFP - no pressureWink

Did looking ever check back in over weekend?

I'll get chattier as I feel I can actually do something about ttc rather than just waiting xx

Issie339 · 29/04/2015 22:04

Hi Nicky, sorry to hear things aren't great at the moment hun FlowersWine

MaybeMrsMum2016 · 29/04/2015 21:41

nicky That sounds quite poop. Hope things improve for you soon in relationshipland!

nickynackynoo31 · 29/04/2015 21:34

Hi ladies....
sorry for disappearing. ....I'm 16dpo and still no AF. ...did test on Monday which was BFN. ...not stressing too much.

me and oh not getting on at.this minute so it's probably for the best for now.

hope your all getting into baby dancing mode for all these BFP in may Smile Smile xxx

Lovelyjubbly95 · 29/04/2015 21:26

Haha!!! Wink

MaybeMrsMum2016 · 29/04/2015 21:22

Lovely I've noticed an increased appetite, feeling a lot more tired than usual, and strange stomach cramps over the past few days. Not sure about my areolas. I could give Mr Maybe a 'treat' and ask him what he thinks! ShockWink

LazyDaisy99 · 29/04/2015 19:59

Hi everyone, hi violet, yes ttc #1 waiting for some opk's to arrive but already on cd14 so dtd every other day anyway.

Nice to read your posts as all this is new to me and my OH is not really interested in talking about the minute detail of the mechanics of the female body quite as much as I'm thinking about it at the moment!

Lovelyjubbly95 · 29/04/2015 19:24

Although I might be being skeptical but my areolas have changed colour my appetite and increased im feeling really tired.....!?!

Brooke113 · 29/04/2015 18:24

So sorry girls for going on and on, I think I'm a constant worrier, always think I have everything going. That smiley face can't come quick enough Violet I'm finding smep ok so far, dtd on cd8, missed out Cd9 and have prewarned Dh for tonight lol

VioletIbiza88 · 29/04/2015 17:45

Lovely sorry to hear about the mc. Hope you get a good result on your progesterone test today.

Brooke I'm wondering the same after apparently ovulating on CD21 last time. I think sometimes we can just have a one off strange cycle though. I started my clear blue opk's today so also starting the wait for the smiley face!!! How are you finding smep lol?!

Issie339 · 29/04/2015 17:41

Brooke I'm sure it's fine, if you got positive opk on cd12 and AF on cd27 that sounds pretty much spot on to me. Hopefully the clearblue opks can put your mind at rest this month. It's so hard not to stress out isn't it, I'm convinced I've got low progesterone or low oestrogen, or polycistic ovaries or something else- the list is long!

Welcome daisy

violet what cd are you? Not sure what day to start the SMEP thing, I have 31 day cycle and am cd7 today...

Lovelyjubbly95 · 29/04/2015 17:03

Violet we had been trying for 15mths and fell pregnant but mc at 6wks. Have had 2 AFs since x

Brooke113 · 29/04/2015 16:54

Sorry in advance for me me post...

I've now got it in my head that I'm not actually ovulating at all :( almost positive opk at Cd12 last month, but Af didn't arrive until vd27, that doesn't add up to me, and the opk wasn't 100% positive...maybe I never ovulated at all, which is why I've bought clearblue ones for now. CD10 today and it was negative, I'm just dying to see that smiley face, so I can stop worrying :(

VioletIbiza88 · 29/04/2015 16:35

Hi Daisy, I came of the pill to ttc at end of Jan. My first cycle was 34 days, then next one was 28 days, this last one surprised me been only 26 days! I also can't remember pre-pill days, don't think I ever paid much attention tbh. Are you ttc #1?

Lovely how long have you been trying?

Maybe Fay fingers crossed for you!!!!

Dtd-a-thon started today, at a ridiculously early hour of the morning before OH had to leave for work. Will be hard to keep up with SMEP with my horrible work shifts! Got three night shifts on CD,20,21 and 22, so hoping ov will have been and gone well before that, as with OH on 9-5 hrs and me on 7-7.30 nights that doesn't give much time for baby dancing lol!

And where is NICKY ???
