Hi everyone,
Thought I'd kick of the Feb bus.
I'm ttc #3 and it isn't easy this time.......
I'm planning on giving Feb all I've got - who's with me??!

Oh bummer bubblegum, those months when you think you might be pg are the worst. I had that at Christmas, every symptom going and AF was six days late. I only tested to find out if I could drink at Christmas parties, couldn't believe it was BFN.

Misty why not join both buses for double the luck?

I'm on CD17 and just entering the dreaded 2WW I think. I've had 8 high days in a row on my CB fertility monitor and no peak, but there were two similar lines on the sticks yesterday when there has been one (or one plus very faint other) all other days, including today. I don't know if you are supposed to read the monitor sticks the same way as OPKs! But I would be surprised if I haven't ovulated yet. And we are a bit DTD-ed out and could do with a rest! Grin

MistyBxx · 07/02/2017 23:23

Oh bubblegum I shall look for that now! Also, don't count yourself out til the heavy red lady sings... pink isn't the full force yet lol x

Bubblegum89 · 07/02/2017 23:03

Ugh. Af got me. Again. Really thought I might be pregnant this time, I had that "feeling". No spotting or cramps during the day which was odd as I usually get that the day before af is due. But alas, 9pm comes around and the cramping starts and when I went for a wee, my cm was tinged pink. So I'm looking forward to the full force of it tomorrow. Shame I can't take my hot water bottle into work :( good luck to the rest of you ladies! My fw doesn't start again until 19th so I've started a March train if anyone wants to join!

MistyBxx · 07/02/2017 22:43

Hey everyone!
Some lovely bfp's on this group!! Sooo as I'm just over my Feb af and my fw begins on the 12th, am I on the right bus??
I don't want to leave coz I want your lucky baby dust 😂😍

Addtothechaos · 07/02/2017 17:43

Hi everyone!

I am reading through every couple of days. Congrats to Bfps! Seems Feb is a lucky month for quite a few on here! Grin

Nothing much happening with me! Getting a build up of cm now as if my body is gearing up to something! Only cd14 out of what is usually 37-40 day cycle so I still have around 9 plus days till I start the fw Sad will then test sometime in March!

Hope to see more Bfps soon! Good luck all!! Xxx

Bubblegum89 · 07/02/2017 16:11

Thanks claire I've seen a few people say the same. They do my head in because a lot of them have marks on the strip part that look like lines but they're not! If af doesn't show tomorrow (although I'm sure she will!) I'm going to use a frer I think!

88claire · 07/02/2017 16:00

I found those one step strips useless. They say they're really sensitive but mine came up positive way after anything else. I found clearblue gave the earliest line. Id try those or a first response if still no AF. Smile

Bubblegum89 · 07/02/2017 15:05

Ugh I'm feeling rubbish today. Af is due tomorrow. I just know I'm not pregnant. Got another bfn this morning on my one step strips. I usually have spotting and cramps the day before af but nothing but milky cm today but I'm sure that won't last. Anyone else 14dpo and getting bfn's?

MrsC1982 · 07/02/2017 14:58

OPKS & FW = need to pee sooooo badly and wont be home until 16:45 eeeek!

Lovechild2016 · 07/02/2017 14:10

Thanks everyone. Looking less like a squinter on a frer this morning thankfully. Sorry for those who are feeling frustrated and Flowers for AF turning up without invitation hpnerd, you have a good pma really hoping March is your month!

This month things I did differently include:
Pre-seed
B vitamins
Used OPK to confirm ovulation date.
More bd-ing including before and after fertile week.

Good luck to you all. I'm hoping this is a sticky bean Blush

EHMW123

Thankyou! Fx for you too!

Nothing seems simple, just went to the loo and I had pinkish red spotting. Mixed in with CM. Sorry TMI! Has to be too early for implantation bleeding but wondered if anyone had ovulation bleeding?

Has anyone had this before?

Hippychic79 · 07/02/2017 12:41

Congratulations walking & lovechild and all other bfp's xxx

EMHW123 · 07/02/2017 10:07

Congrats walking and love amazing news!!!!

Great you are now negative claire I'm waiting on my positive at CD19 😒 the 2ww begins!! I'll keep my fx for you

Lol mrsc we seem to be cycle buddies.... well for this one anyway 😆 if keep to my 30 days!

Bit of a random one.... does anyone use a soft cup BlushBlush
???

Somethingtotalkabout1982 · 07/02/2017 08:21

So now in fertile week, have briefed OH on what needs to be done over next few days (:-D) and then 2WW will begin!! I'm feeling ridiculously positive this cycle which is bound to end in disappointment!!

BluePheasant · 07/02/2017 07:59

Lots of bfp on this bus, congrats all Grin

I'm getting really fustrated that AF won't start. Def not pregnant but yet again stuck in this limbo of waiting to have another go, it seems to drag even more than ever this time. Am CD36, looking like I'm heading for another one of my long cycles. I think a trip to the docs is in order soon as I just think something isn't right with these irregular and long cycles. Almost 6 months trying but only 3 complete cycles in that time Sad I have a good idea what's going on as I work in a medical role but just need a referral for some tests.

On holiday next week, no doubt AF will show up in show force then! Angry

Ohb0llocks · 07/02/2017 07:02

I can see the line love

ttcnovice · 07/02/2017 00:02

Congrats walking Smile

Lovechild I can see it too! I think congrats are in order for you!

MistyBxx · 06/02/2017 23:00

Me too harrypotter! Well AF last day today for me today, then a long wait til my fw week starts on the 12th!x

harrypotternerd · 06/02/2017 22:57

AF decided to turn up today so I have just bought some opk's , concieve well vitamins and some pregnancy tests ready for next month so hoping next month is the month.

HollyMay84 · 06/02/2017 22:07

Congrats walking! That's lovely news Smile

Lovechild I can definitely see it! Congratulations! Mine was like that the other day and I got a strong + on a clearblue too Smile

Lovechild2016 · 06/02/2017 21:57

Thanks everyone! Not sure DH is going to have such good eye sight as you lovely ladies so might wait for a digital in two days. He's away with work from tomorrow morning so could surprise him when he gets back. Eeeeeeeek!! Keeping fingers crossed for those testers in the next few days. X

MistyBxx · 06/02/2017 21:54

Lovechild!! It is definitely a squinter lol I put the big light on in my living room just now and I CAN see it! Absolutely lush news!!
And congrats walkingdeadfan!! Omg so excited for my fw! Hurry up 12th!x

MrsGB2225 · 06/02/2017 21:50

I see it lovechild massive congratulations!

Congratulations walking!

That's amazing news with your BFP!

This month is a good month, lots of BFPs already!

Lovechild2016 · 06/02/2017 21:47

Omg thank you claire Smile

Lovechild2016 · 06/02/2017 21:47

claire thank you! And great news about your positive OPK, hoping for a relaxed tww for you and some good news at the end! I only tested tonight as DH asked if I wanted some wine and I just had a feeling I shouldn't. walkingdeadfan yay for BFP amazing news, how long have you been ttc?

Will do a frer Wednesday (or maybe tomorrow, who am I kidding here). It's obviously still really early so must keep calm.
