Feb 2017 bus is ready to go! TTC this month? Hop on.....

Sorry AF got you misty

Yay!! Fellow teen mom watchers!! teen mom OG is where it's at though, I've followed those girls from the beginning, I love it !!!

Blue pheasant ** i feel your pain on the guitar front ..probably cause it's something my DH would do! But I have to admit I did LOL multiple times reading your post and even had to share with DH ...who proudly reminded me his guitar matches the furniture haha!

Oh that's fab blue, thanks! This has cheered me right up! I'm gonna go for it this month now :) get this af out the way (they're usually heavy but only 3 days) and then have lots of fun this month! Gonna stock up on opks and actually read the results properly this time lol. And hope for the best!
Then if af arrives again, I will have a break in March lol x

Yes November baby if you got pg this month, assuming normal cycle!

This is handy for working it out...

notgivingup maybe it's time to have a break from doing OPK etc and just see what happens for a while? Take all the pressure off. You are still so young so have time on your side Sometimes it will happen when you least expect it, did with DC1 for me!

I have my usual pre period insomnia. Fecks sake.

Yes I think you'd still be hitting November misty, there are calculators that can give you a proper due date online base on you af time. I'm due af on about 15 Feb n I think mine wud be oct 26 at the mo.

Thanks TtC. Feeling slightly shit about the fact that if it doesn't happen this month we will be onto month 5. I know that's not much but DS just sort of happened, and I guess I kind of thought that due to age (24) and a previous 'surprise' that it would be super easy

Hi notgivingup, ah you're in the right place chick, everyone is lovely here and we all try to stay positive but it is hard!! As for tips, I've just had my af arrive tonight so I'm a bit down myself lol but give me a couple of days and I will be back smiling!

I've just had a thought girls, this was actually my January period. Well, as in, I joined this thread just after my January ovulation. We are just coming into Feb now... so technically, if I was to catch this month, I wouldn't have a Christmas baby would I?? It would be a November baby, am I right???

Hey everyone, any room left on the bus

age 23
ttc #1
cd19

Have been off bc since feb 2015 no baby yet.
Have been actively ttc for at least 1 year, using clear blue opk's, started using the boots own at first but could never read if it was positive or not
Using fertilitycheck gel, dtd 2-3 times a week. No luck
Any tips on staying positive?

Thanks all. Dreams are over 😔 I know I must stay positive and I will bounce back, but feeling down in the dumps tonight. Just had a big fat pizza. And I'm gonna go out and get steaming this weekend 🙈 although I was really looking forward to having a good reason to stay in and save myself about 80 bucks 😂
I'm not too bad about winter itself, I'm a November baby and would have loved a lil baby-birthday present 😔
But I don't want a babe near Christmas. January I would be happy, I'm usually depressed in Jan so would be lush to have something to look forward to (and be off on maternity over the summer!!) xx

Misty I feel exactly the same, don't really want a baby too close to Christmas. Tbh it's not even just about it being close to Christmas, I've always felt I don't want to have a newborn in the middle of winter if had he choice. I suffer with SAD in winter and I just worry I would find it really tough with a newborn as we don't have family around to give any help either. If it takes a long time ttc then we will just go with the flow but atm I think I'm planning to avoid being due in the winter months.

misty my boyfriends the same! He was working out months to try so we have a summer baby (straight out the window on that 1) don't give up! You'll get your BFP when the time is right
ttcnovice ahh don't! I don't think I can take much more!

I have a counselling session tomorrow due to work stress and can already see myself breaking down over all of this! All of my friends just 'fell' pregnant without trying! Went to a little ones birthday party at the weekend and have never felt more like a 3rd wheel in my life

Oh no, sorry Misty and mangoon. Rubbish :(

I've had an absolute shitter of a day at work, exhausted. Finally go into the lounge tonight to sit down and have a cup of tea only to find DH has put up a bracket on the fucking wall and there is his bright fucking red electric guitar hanging off it! Last straw!!! Seriously what is the point of trying to make a room look nice when you have a plank of husband that does things like this? He knew I would hate it so he did it in secret so I couldn't stop him, non!
I kicked off big time, the guitar will NOT be staying on the wall!! Sorry, completely irrelevant to ttc! Just felt like the icing on the cake for this week! Am feeling so tired and now getting stabby af cramps. Wish it would just hurry up now, am in a right grump ha! Am thinking we will try for one more cycle with OPK and then maybe have a break for a little while. although if DH doesn't move that fucking guitar I'm never having sex with him again

Sorry AF got you Misty I was keeping my fingers crossed for you over on the other thread

Ahh ZEB I'm a couple of episodes ahead (watching on US MTV courtesy of a VPN ) wait until you watch it, you will be in buckets! There's one part with Kailyn's son Isaac that was just heartbreaking

I am gutted girls! Now I don't know what to do,I'm thinking of giving Feb a miss if I'm honest, partly coz I don't want to have to say "this is my 6th month of trying" coz that's half a year 😳 if I was 3 years older, I'd be going to the docs after 6 months, and that's terrifying to me.

And partly coz I don't want a Christmas baby lol 🙈😂 I know that sounds ridiculous haha but I just don't!

I have found my people! I also watch Teen Mom
My update - I tested early AGAIN! I know, I know. So stupid. BFN. I'll test again at the weekend if AF hasn't arrived but I'm getting lots of pre-menstrual symptoms now.

ttcnovice yeah when Chelsea was telling Aubree she was pregnant kicked me right off!!

Oh no misty gutted for you! Stay positive for February

Xx

Oh no! Sorry to hear that misty :( AF is a bitch

Hey girlies, well I've been full on clutching at straws tonight... beware, gross detail ahead lol started spotting in work about 4pm, literally brown smudges only on wiping, but nothing else. This is unusual coz when af arrives with me, it's like something out of the exorcist, literally, I go from 0-massacre in one toilet visit 😂 so even when I got home this eve, more peeing, more wiping and very little brown smudges. Well what do you think I thought... omfg I'm implanting! So, I went for a lie down, chilled out, had a nap (felt rough anyway from cramping badly all day) got back up, more pee, not a spot on my liner, slight brown on tissue! Heart was racing! Came downstairs like "omg I can't wait for sat to test, shall I do one now? No, wait til sat" smiling to myself and everything like shit, this is it omg like... then... (don't even need the suspense really lol) BOOM feel something "exit" me down below, rush to toilet, ta daaaa it's like a scene from Saw III. Fml. In the words of Duncan bannatyne, for that reason, I'm out! 😩

I've been watching Teen Mom 2 and crying at it also lol

Zeb I watched teen mom 2 tonight and cried too! Are you up to the latest episode? I was set off in about 3 different parts!

I'm back and symptom spotting again lol just a quick question... was just having a wee. Once I'd finished, I was just sitting on the toilet for a couple of mins reading my phone and then I got this really sharp shooting pain in my lower left side (kinda just below my ovary) which nearly made me jump off the toilet :/ it only lasted a couple of seconds. Then I got another two and then nothing. Am I dying??

Zeb sorry (predictive text)

Zen I feel your pain. Feel like everyone I pass at the min is pregnant of just had a baby

There's a pregnant lady who sits about
5 ft from me in the office. She has me feel the kicks
Luckily she's off on maternity next week.
