SQUARE ONE'ers to GRADUATES - expecting plenty of BFPs in June!

Thanks Jem
I think it's normal to be doubtful. I always think it's not going to be positive but just have a glimmer of hope.
It'll be your turn soon as well just try and keep as calm and away from stress as much as possible so it doesn't mess with you body. Easier said than done I know.
Thankfully work hasn't been stressful this month like last month so I'm hoping that goes in my favour.

I go on holiday 5 weeks today so if do fall this month hope I don't suffer with symptoms on hols!

Kate errrr that job sounds amazing! I absolutely get those doubts now - just feeling like it hasn't happened and worrying that it won't. For the first few cycles I convinced myself completely that I was pregnant. That was exhausting and crazy making. Now I'm much more doubtful Dora. Which is better in terms of the disappointment, but crap as I'm less excited about it. Obviously when it happens I'll be completely over the moon though!

Those symptoms all sound good to me radders. I don't feel like it'll be long before you're back on the grads list. Just a feeling I have!

Feeling some AF like symptoms now :-/ she's not here yet, but I'm feeling something. Will let you all know....

Summer if you tested positive CD15 you could've ovulated anytime between then and CD17. So take cd17 as latest you would be 13dpo now. So really a first response should be picking up a positive ... But everyone is different and depends on individual hcg levels

Two symptoms I have noticed is constipation, gas and lots of weeing today. But probably just a coincidence

Nim - Ewcm is a good sign!

I mean, not tried.

Just a thought; if I had a positive opk on cd15, and say it takes 7 days for implantation, surely I would have tested positive by now? Now tried another test but the numbers don't add up.

Well I'm knackered... and job hunting. Found some nice full-time home tutoring gigs for 6 year olds that pays £12,000 per month. That would be sweet.

Just an observation from my head of department to get through tomorrow (as part of performance review) and then it is relatively smooth sailing (so not at all smooth and incredibly rocky).

Don't feel any 'symptoms' but just have a feeling this isn't my month. Don't we all have that doubting feeling from time to time??

Hi all,

sorry I've been a bit absent. CD 15 and no sign of a positive opk yet which is unusual (for the two cycles I have been doing them). Lots of ewcm though.

The plan for this month is dtd every other day which I have managed since CD8..

Mimi, i'm sorry AF got you, hope the doc can shed some light.

Fingers crossed Footprints, I hope your meds do their job, or don't need to because you get a BFP.

Summer, you are not out until your out, some people have had very late BFPs.

Jodders we are still cycle twins by the looks of things.

PS fingers crossed

Radders, I'm due to test on the 22nd. Plus the lack of symptoms could be a good thing!

Physics, hope Alton Towers went OK.

Waves to everyone else.

Sucha, I've been afraid that I've drowned my egg in prosecco so I know how you feel! Hence why it prompted me to start a health kick.

Footprints, last month I was symptom spotting and had that awful bloat 10 days before AF. It eventually arrived but two days early.

Radders, I have sticks at home. But like someone said earlier, I would rather see AF than a bfn and get disheartened.

Apart from getting AF a couple of days early, or 1 day late on occasions, I am fairly regular. If it doesn't arrive tonight or tomorrow then I know something is up.

Hey everyone

CD21 7dpo

Nothing to report here to be honest! No symptoms at all. Not even emotional. So don't feel pregnant in the slightest. Thinking about it more and keep getting twangs of being anxious but time will tell. Only one more week to go really.

Ps - fingers crossed for you
Summer - you're Doing well not POAS today
Jem - hope you're ok and glad you are heading back home so you can relax a bit.
Tee - hope you're doing ok in tww
Jod - hope you're feeling bit better now. Loved the names you came up with.
Footprints - hoping for your bfp and its good you've got additional hope with the meds
Purple - good luck with your testing. Keep us posted!
Physics - it's quite funny that a lot of women think the same about their jobs and going on maternity leave!

Mimi and nim - hope you're both ok

Parney hope you're getting on well with pregnancy too and not having too many symptoms

Sorry if I missed anyone xxx

CD18

Another gorgeous day is really uplifting.
Trying to stay very relaxed.
No idea really of exact day of ovulation as was over the 3 days camping. I remember seeing EWCM just before. Temp up in the luteal phase. Feel different this month, no bad cramping and my nipples since the weekend are tingly? Bit anxious about starting the meds now but want to get cycle fixed just incase. First day of meds, so AF should arrive on time cd28 if it doesn't.. Well might b a BFP! Let's hope.

Ps- I'm sorry u feel AF showing shortly. Keep us posted.

Summer- you were on time last cycle were u?

Waves to everyone... Any symptoms from you all? Anyone else approaching Poas time?

Defo still in the game summer, keeping fx for you and ps.

How are the other twwers doing, radders around?

Cd 21, 6 DPO and I've still got really sore boobs. No other symptoms really, being away has been a massive distraction, and the time difference accounting for some things eg tiredness.

I think it would be a bit of a miracle if it had happened this month to be honest - my poor egg will have been battling raging stress, adrenaline, cortisol etc. You still can't help but get your hopes up can you?

Heading home tomorrow, so second half of TWW will be less distracted. Will try and keep the crazy at a minimum, there's plenty of time to convince myself yet!

Still no AF! Although sometimes I can be a day late on AF. I'm never more than a day late so I'm going to sit tight and if it hasn't shown its face, I'm going to test Saturday. No symptoms apart from sore breasts which is common for me approaching AF. Fingers crossed though :-)

Getting heavier spotting today. Pretty sure AF is imminent. Ready to start next cycle positive and fresh and plenty of dtd!

Going to try dtd every other day next month if AF does arrive

Nothing new from me. Feeling like AF is coming any minute!!

Come on summer- make it a BFP!! I'm excited for u. Hope AF stays away?

Ps- any news?

Sounds promising and like you are late summer! When will you test again?

According to that bit of info I posted a few days ago, I should have implanted on Saturday just gone. Although, I tested on Sunday and it was a bfn. And then again Monday and still bfn. I'm now waiting for AF. I guess I'm still in the game until she gets me!!

So it's not cd 29 for me today but cd 30. No sign of AF yet. Normally comes for me very early in the morning and wakes me up with cramps. But, still got the whole day yet.

Fx crossed for a holiday bfp for you jodders and a birthday bfp for footprints!

Kate that sounds mental, good luck with them!

Summer hope AF stays away...

Jem, AF due 21st June. I'm testing from the 13h though...

Jen, AF due tomorrow and I as I've had some BFN's I'm going to wait for it to show its face. It should arrive tomorrow which will be cd29, but sometimes I shift from cd29 to cd30 so I won't hold my breath :-/

Physic - that's crazy all those 12 yr olds to Alton towers!! I'd go crazy. I'm not surprised you are desperate to get out of it all. Hopefully this month is your month and then your countdown begins.

Jem- AF due on 19June (my birthday) oh joy! So put me down for then.

Normally my temp would be a bit higher than this - it hasn't really gone far above coverline at all this month. Oh well.

Stressy mcstressface over here is leading a trip for 40 12 year-olds to alton towers tomorrow. I will breathe in about 3 and a half weeks! And then it's all over!! Yippee!

Hm I think I need to plan some stuff to look forward to! Stuff this putting life on hold for ttc!

Hilariously had a chat with the two other women that I work with closely who are of child bearing years - we were all suggesting taking maternity leave in order to escape the craziness of my place of employment!!! Perhaps not a long term solution!
