Back to SQUARE ONE CD1! Anyone want to spend April with me?!

Doesn't match up with CM, cause all the egg white and watery stuff was way back on days 18 and 19, though it looks like I did have some watery on CD 23 which was when FF says I ov'd. hmmm. Guess I should just wait another days or two...

Not sure if the doctors will do anything yet as I think they say it can take a year

Physickate - you know you said it doesn't match up with CM - what do you mean?? How does it not? Sorry if that's a silly question!

I feel for you having such long cycles and not knowing when or if AF will show. I'm lucky in sense that I came off pill and first AF was 28 days and my last one was 26. So not too irregular at moment. Hoping for 28 this month though so have a longer lp.

Currently 12 dpo according to chart, but It doesn't match up with CM... which was earlier. Either way, I only made it to 8dpo before AF got me last month! CD35, that's for sure (longest cycle ever was 5ish months ago - 37 days). Oh I just wish my cycles stopped being so unpredictable all of a sudden!!! I ordered some FRER which should be here by Saturday, not that I would need the early bit!

But we did not DTD within a week either side of when I supposedly Ov'd. So really, this cycle is just a bit of a dud. Haven't officially started TTC, but would irregular cycles at this stage be worth a visit to the GP? I'm 31 and cycles only became irregular when copper (non-hormonal) coil was removed in November....

Will start doing OPKs next month to help pinpoint as well as BBT...

Argh frustration!

Physickate, how many dpo are you? Are u having any symptoms?
Wheatgrass is supposed to help fertility and lower fsh levels if they are a bit high. It provides also good vitamins - iron & folic acid. Depends what you think u might be lacking in. My levels of fsh are high so was recommended it by the doctor.

RaddersMrs - read that the temp is more accurate in morning before getting up. I keep forgetting too so already my chart a bit up and down!

Feel like I'm rattling with all these tablets

Still no AF!! Still feels imminent... Still planning to test CD 37 on Saturday...

What is wheat grass meant to do??

My cat has gone missing so I'm pretty upset. PMS symptoms have weirdly subsided otherwise I'd be bawling my eyes out!!!

Yes think the key is to stay relaxed. I worry about things all the time. My first pregnancy took over a year, gave up after so long. went away for weekend drinking with friends and OH and bingo I fell pregnant. Didn't have a clue where I was in cycle. My second pregnancy happened straight away almost after I stopped B/feeding.

Really do think you can't let it take over your life. Hard to say from a woman who has chart after chart in operation this week, popping tablets, eating so healthily a rabbit would be impressed! I even say a prayer every night :)

You're still only 32 so they're definitely not over at all!
Maybe try opks just in case. I got a bag of 50 for about £4.50 so they're not expensive

I haven't been but I think I'm getting pretty good at gauging when I'm ovulating from CM etc but I might give them a try. I suffer with an anxiety disorder anyway so I'm a natural worrier, I just feel like my child-bearing time is running out by the day!

I know it's difficult but try and stay as calm as possible because stress can sometimes mess with ovulation and AF.

Are you using opks??

Thank you raddersmrs. According to my menstrual calendar I am on day 36(?) but my periods are never reguar and I worry that being on various methods of contraception for basically 16 years solid is affecting my fertility but I'm not sure. We have been trying since January and I know it's not long but we tried to conceive a few years ago and had no success then either. I feel like I'm doing everything I can and it feels as though all of my friends got pregnant straight away, I know it's different for everyone but when you want something so much it's hard when AF appears every month!

Hi racja, I know it's difficult to stay calm isn't it.
What cd and cycle are you??

I woke up and jumped out of bed and forgot to temp so I had moved about a bit and got a temp of 35.37. Would this be void for today as I didn't do it as soon as I woke up???

Hi newbie here! Have been trying to get pregnant for the first time and just taken another negative test : ( It's really getting me down and I feel as though my body is letting me down every month. I'm 32 and put off having children earlier for my career (BIG mistake for me!!) All my friends with children are telling me to relax and not worry about it but everyone at work keeps asking if I'm pregnant yet and every time I could cry!

Sent you an inbox with the website address

Did u order from US? Can only find that brand in US?

Thanks Jod, I'll get those :)

Yes you can get tablet form (thank goodness as it tastes yucky)

I mean can you get wheat grass tablets? Can only find it powder form. Not sure how to take it?

Also Royal jelly? Is that good too?

RaddersMrs, yes the Ov spike can go up and then has to come down so mine last month was over 4 days I found.

Blood results came back that I have high fsh levels. I'm hoping it's because I just come off the pill 2 months back so things are not properly working. Doc suggests i could b pre menopausal? I didn't take the news very well and not going to give up hope as I still get ov symptoms and positive tests, still have period. Definitely have no pre menopausal symptoms yet. I'm 38, so am worried, but going to give it my best shot.

Breakfast consisted of 6 Brazil nuts, yoghurt, blueberries, pineapple and an orange juice. (Think I might buy the choc coated Brazil nuts next time ;) trying everything now..

Anyone have wheatgrass?

AF still a no-show on CD35 (12dpo, and last cycle I only had an 8 day LP), even though it still feels imminent. Longest cycle recently was 37 days, so in the very unlikely event I am pregnant, will take a test on Saturday if she is still a no-show!

Temps are up and down - this month is not a very good biphasic chart...

Hi nadia, welcome to the thread!
We all have a good chin wag on here about everything. What cd are you on?? When are you next due to POAS?

My ovulation pains have started now ... Need to Dtd but being in the mood when you have pain is difficult. Why does this happen when your body needs you to Dtd now yet it causes you pain so you don't want to!

I'm joining! Anyone want email details etc and have a TTC buddy let me know, as i'd love to get a proper chat going with someone also TTC.

Age: 23
One Child: Gorgeous little Darren, five in may!
TTC for: 6 months now, two M/C.

I'm getting so fed up with being so overly obsessive around everything conception related, really want my BFP and sticky bean!

Name's Nadia btw! :D

Good luck with DTD as your OPK looked really strong in the pic you attached! Baby dust to us all!

Thank you raddersmrs!
My cycle has been ranging from 24 -31 days therefore I am not sure what's been going on! I'm probably going to start tomorrow and see how I get on. I will probably do one OPK around 2ish and then again in the evening. I just don't want to miss the fertile window this month!
