Congrats SodaSoda. Grin May your BFP be the first of many.

For me, the festive drinking days are now over, and yesterday was my last day on the pill. Suspect this month is largely going to be just trying to get my cycle back to normal, but you never know....

queenoftheworld93 · 04/01/2016 07:16

Tell me about it anna! 2dpo and already bored of the waiting Blush

Annarose2014 · 03/01/2016 23:54

I've nothing to say either! CD23 so 6 days post ov (IF I actually did!). Too early to test.

Still using opks every day in case I get a second surge. Still taking my VB6 and my Magnesium. Still have sore boobs!

By God the TWW is boring though! Ugh.

MiniLop · 03/01/2016 23:25

Haven't posted for a while because I've had nothing to say - CD24 and still no positive opk Sad hoping that I've just missed it and it's not that I'm not ovulating. Will POAS on CD28 if AF hasn't arrived before then.
How's my cycle buddy kitty doing?
Congrats soda!

GinandJazzHands · 03/01/2016 20:14

I wonder whether the second jump FF thought was OV could be implantation soda?
first here's hoping we both get nice early OVs (perfectly timed with lots of DTD of course) then two BFPs!

Sodasoda · 03/01/2016 18:59

Ha ha, thanks mama!! Easier when you're not at work and when we don't already have kids I guess! When we eventually tell our parents I'm waiting for the penny to drop that it was probably conceived in one of their homes! Grin Blush

Thanks gin I agree I'm further past o than FF thinks. It's not always foolproof!

mamaneedsamojito · 03/01/2016 18:24

PS: My last two cycles have been 30 days (hooray! I had a spate of crazy ones - 39 days then 23 days) which means I'll probably be POAS again at the end of Jan so I'm going to stay here and straddle both Jan and Feb buses. Grin

firstgo1984 · 03/01/2016 18:24

gin I bet you ovulate first though! I'm aiming for DTD every other day too!

mamaneedsamojito · 03/01/2016 18:22

Can we please just take a moment to salute Soda for her dedication to the cause. I've never seen so much sex. I definitely need to up my game Grin

GinandJazzHands · 03/01/2016 18:12

Nice chart soda Smile I'd guess by your temp spike that you OV'd on CD16, which puts you at 14DPO today. I think FF has incorrectly guessed you only OV'd six days or so ago because of that second spike (the erratic temps because of your cold probably threw it out).

KateMossIsMyQueen · 03/01/2016 18:07

Thanks curly definitely agree with the suggestions to go to the GP, and do not feel silly - you're reaction to be upset is completely completely normal

Sodasoda · 03/01/2016 17:39

Cycle twin wee - sorry we couldn't both be lucky. I'm glad your DH is coming back next month!

Fingers crossed for everyone! Keep DTD! Smile

Sodasoda · 03/01/2016 17:36

Thanks gin!

Chart attached! Did a lot of coughing through the night earlier in my cycle and my temps look pretty erratic!

cn welcome back.hope u had a blast.u will soon be poasing again,fx dear!
kitty sorry for the long wait to ov.hope u are dtd all the same incase u missed the peak.fx hun

kittyvet · 03/01/2016 17:04

Congratulations Soda!!! Hoping you have a happy and healthy pregnancy! Sorry curly defo take the advice and go to GP.
Hope everyone else is doing ok. I am still waiting to ovulate...thought it was going to be Christmas and it's now the longest cycle ever! Guess that first cycle of 28d I had last month was really misleading! Going to take forever to get PG if I have wacky and extra long cycles!

cnchapmanxx · 03/01/2016 17:00

CD9 today (we are CD twins first Smile). Been OPKing on Amazon cheapies every day and two days of not quite positives so DTD just in case it's gearing up for a surge soon. Who knows, going to try and DTD EOD if poss.

GinandJazzHands · 03/01/2016 16:39

wee great news about your DH bless him! All the very best for the Feb bus!

GinandJazzHands · 03/01/2016 16:35

Congrats soda! Lovely news. I've been temping so happy to have a squint at your chart? Mine were all over the place when I had a cold too so I wouldn't worry too much. Fmu is def supposed to be better for POASing and your first pic was a good strong line so try not to worry (easier said than done).
curly I'm so sorry my lovely Flowers. I'd def get yourself along to the docs as others are advising so they can log what has happened so far.

Sodasoda · 03/01/2016 14:43

Thanks everyone Smile

curly I'm so sorry - that must be so tough seeing that line and then the witch arriving. How horrible for you. I think you should definitely be able to get referred after 3.

I got really upset a couple of hours ago as I did another FRER to convince myself (don't know why) and it took ages to come up and is much fainter than this morning. But I suppose FMU is much better. Need to stop testing and try to relax!!

I have no idea how many DPO I am really. I temp (can post chart of anyone is interested?) and I got a positive OPK on CD14 so I though I ovd on CD15. I have a 14day LP so AF due yesterday. However my temps were all over the place (I had a cold) and FF says I'm only 7dpo - which I think is wrong because I wouldn't get a BFP that early!

mynameiscalypso · 03/01/2016 14:40

I'm so sorry that AF has arrived Curly; it must be all the worse for having seen that line for a few hours.

Congrats on the BFP Soda! A great way to start the year!

toadierocks · 03/01/2016 14:01

Ah curly I'm so sorry Flowers take it very easy today with plenty of rest. Without wanting to pry, if you've had a chemical Preg before, make sure you get off to the doctors so they can at least record them on the system. After 3 miscarriages, chemical or not you should be able to go and see a consultant and maybe have some blood tests done. Its no consultation but you're not alone in this Flowers

soda a big congratulations! What a lovely way to start 2016 for you! Baby dust xx how many dpo were you?

Curlywurly4 · 03/01/2016 13:25

Thanks everyone for being so kind. Feel a bit silly being gutted given it was only a positive for a couple of hours. Was much happier just thinking AF had arrived.

Celen think my LP is 9-10 days ish but I don't temp so it's hard to say exactly. Cycle is usually 23-24 days.

I do take Vit B6 and its helped move by +ve opk from CD17-19 to CD13-14 but still not a long enough LP i guess. Had three BFP in 8 months but just can't keep them SadNot sure what vitex is?

Test was part of CBFM, so a complete test they just look weird. I used all my cheapies Amazons trying to get a negative from my mmc!
