May as well update ... TTC since sept, cycle 3? 4? Lost count already, currently on tww... Due to test in 6days according to the all-knowing ovia. No symptoms. So don't think I'm even slightly preggers this time. This week is going to go so sloooowwww but no point testing early is there. Is there ???? No. I didn't think so

Marking spot

Ovia thinks I'm CD24 but who knows until I get first af!

Shelb I'm really not sure! I'm hoping it was about half way through as dtd lots then (first week Dec). But it's only been in the past week and a half that I've been learning all about this stuff! Can't believe I was totally clueless!

Dubbya hurrah another buddy! I'm on my first cycle too, didn't ovulate until CD22. When did you ovulate?

Runner - I'm not going toffee you up any more as I know how much this means to you but I'll be checking in first thing tomorrow and all night if insomnia is anything to go by to see the latest. How did your meeting go?

Dreamy nice to know even a former midwife has to stab in the dark. My theory is just get loads of cheap tests /opk's from the Internet and test whenever you feel like it. I find it far less stressful than making myself wait... But then I am the founding member of pissy sticks anonymous

Stark I'm sure I've trawled that website a couple of times. Is it laid out by dpo?

I think I can see something Runner!

I have adjusted my withdrawal bleed info in Ovia and now it says test in 5 days argh! I am away this weekend so will probably just wait until (if?!) af makes an appearance and if not, test next week. Think I'm on about the same timescales as you Shelb!

I have been trying out these OPKs (sainsburys) and because I've only been off the pill a couple of weeks and don't have a clue how long my cycle would normally be, I've just been taking a stab in the dark.
I got some pretty dark lines last week but obviously neg as it wasn't as strong as the control. I did one today (first morning wee because I can't no drink for 4 hours) and the line was very faint so not sure if I've ovulated and never tested at my surge or if I am still to ovulate. Who knows!

I'm trying to cover all bases by DTD every day just in case. I'm sure after month of trying (if it comes to that - hopefully not) the enthusiasm might wear thin!

I used to be a Midwife, you'd think that would perhaps make me more practical in this conception situation but nope, I still did a random HPT today "just in case"....just in case what I'm not sure as I've literally only been off the pill two weeks.

I have quite a lot of cramping today, nothing major but dull and constant. Maybe AF is coming for a visit.

This forum is amazing. I don't want to tell anyone I'm TTC as it then put pressure on me but it's nice to be able to compare and share with others in the same PregoBoat

FX for some BFP over Xmas

Snow I know what you mean. First month I spent hours looking at other peoples tests.

Stark I'm remarkably calm about it really. I'm treating it as a BFN because I'm not sure if it's an indent or not and the strip is too shiny for me to work it out.

Drink no, I can't see the intent on any of the other tests but I can't really see it on this one either. I did the photo because I couldn't decide if I saw anything or not. It's actually clearer on the photo than I can see it in real life

Shelb I took it just before I posted it but I hadn't drunk much in the preceding couple of hours.

I'm released I'm not the only one who can see it but I'm pretty sure it's going to turn out to be an indent line as I'm only 8 or 10 dpo so it's awfully early to see anything. Couldn't help posting though as I know how much we all like to ogle lines lol

I think I can't see something runner!

What time did you do it?

Eeeekkkk!!!!!!!

Xxxx

I can definitely see something runner, I'd vote for another test tomorrow to see if it's darkened, can you see that indent/mark on a test that's not been used?

Pinklily we are on the same cycle! My peak is Wednesday too let's hope one of us or even better both of us is lucky!

I think I see something runner? But I've been looking at other peoples bfp pics for days and I have started seeing lines everywhere. Good luck though! Maybe tomorrow it'll be stronger? Good luck to Shelb too! And bluegirl! Lots of potentially amazing Christmas gifts coming up

Hi Drink and Dream

Ok crazy woman warning. I just did another cheap pregnancy test because I was bored and I think I've got the same mark I thought I saw this morning. I think it's probably an indent/line eye but as I was asked for photos earlier I thought I'd post one anyway. It's nearly invisible!!!! it really is invisible I'm imagining it

I'm drink.

Hi everyone, can I join your group?
I think I've read through most of the threads on the old link too.
Finally time for me to join I think :-)

stats
Age: 27
TTC: No.1
Was on microgyn30 which I took back to back so unless I missed a few pills I'd rarely have a withdrawal bleed. Been on it for about 18 months. Prior to that I had the Mirena Coil for around 8 years. From what I remember, I was fairly regular with my periods but I have no idea how long my cycle was so that will be a mystery whilst TTC.

Came of the pill on November 28th, 3/12/15 withdrawal bleed (normal) and since 6/12/15 (when I should have started my new pill packet) my OH and I have been DTD every day at least once a day.

Was thinking I'd do a HPT around 28th which would be 4 weeks from when I came off the pill if there's no sign of AF. First cycle will be a guess though.

Nice to see a few BTP already on this thread!

Not really blue. I feel pretty unupduffed today only symptoms:

Reasonable amount of this watery cm crap
Period pains / twanging above pubic bone
Feel bit sick every now and then
Burping
Reasonably strong line on opks

The only only thing that is giving me a blink of hope on the horizon is that up until ovulation (and previously when on the pill when I got to end of packet and had break) I had piercingly bad headaches that I had to take migraine meds for. I haven't had one since ovulation.....watch one come the second I hit send, bastards

Shelb No period pains...did have them on Saturday but they've gone now. Have a feeling I'll be tormented till the end of the week, waste a test on Friday (party on Saturday do would need to know) then AF will show her nasty face!

Only remaining potential 'symptoms' are blocked nose and frequent dizzy spells (probably just a cold!) and unusually bumpy nipples!

Any more symptoms shelb runner, anyone else?

Blue I hear you re wet (ewwww) lots of watery cm which I've read is the lining of womb breaking down as progesterone decreases.....hope it's wrong info though! Do you have period pains or anything?
