Ok so I am bravely attempting to set up a new thread for anyone tTC.
Plug in your stats ...
Share the highs of your journey
Limit the lows - yes it's a challenging time but being negative gets you down.
I'm thinking positivity breeds positivity and positive thinking gets positive results -
It may take some of us a little longer than others ... but does that matter? I think not.

New rules - instead of saying af due ... we say bfp due ...

So here goes ... my stats
Age 38
Cycle 3
Bfp due 14/02

Dolly - I used preseed last month and will be using again this month - obviously it didn't work last cycle but then I only dtd once in fw so not exactly great odds ... good stuff but I don't think you need as much as it states on tube ... sorry can't remember how much I used xxx

Hi ladies, loving the pics of the pets! I would love one but just don't have the time just now!
Yep Moo, CD 12 now and using the OPKs- all negative up to now. This cycle I'm using Pre-seed, has any of you lovely ladies had any experience with it?
FX barnett! Hope you get your BFP!

mrsbarnettsbaby · 16/02/2017 09:49

Will see if I can hold out! Cd65 today. I thought 67 was my longest but checked on Ovia and it's 65. So in theory could test tomorrow. Going to try and hold out til March if I can.

MissMagpie · 16/02/2017 09:27

MrsB - wow you have the willpower of a superhero if you can wait until CD80 to test. I know exactly what you mean though - the hope keeps you going and a BFN is such a blow.

The symptoms you are having sound optimistic though so fingers crossed. xxx

Moo - i would take your opks and keep them well hidden - it'll be annoying if you miss your peak whilst away but it helps to track every cycle. Dp and I were poorly in December and I knew we wouldn't dtd but I poas opk anyway as I like to keep a rolling record of ovulation on my spreadsheet saddo xxx

Baking we've just got an office puppy at work and it's hard going training her, my boss likens it to having a baby. Hopefully you'll get your bfp this month and have a 9 month cycle fx :) good luck with getting in as much baby dancing as possible. I think your dh has a good point about replaxing and dtd as much as possible just so long as that includes peak fw ... hope dh gets better soon so you can get back to dtd xxx

Rose - thank you I think my bunnies are cute too but I am bias :) I think I will draw identical twins ... drawing one will be hard enough so just copying it should make drawing two easier if that makes sense :)) your dogs are lush xxx

Welcome Eccentric of course you can join, everyone tTC is welcome here although I'm truly hoping none of us will be here for long... saying that I am hoping we all stick together and the name of the thread will have to be amended slightly :)) xxx

Hi ladies, been reading along for a while now and wondered if I can join here? I'm ttc#4 🙈 age 29 (30 sooner than I care to admit) cycle #4 took us 5 years to get our dd so I may be here a while 😊 cd 32 (of a usually 28 day cycle 😏)

bakingmad83 · 16/02/2017 07:54

Morning!

Mrs B, I thought my 49 day cycle was bad, but 80 days, goodness! Don't know how you've managed to hold off testing so long!

DH came home in the night due to his man flu, thinking it must be a bit more than I gave him credit for. Not sure if he'll be back at work tonight, or tomo but not expecting any dtd till Saturday.

Playgroup this morning and play date this afternoon so nice sociable day for DS and me :)

@mrsb - i admire your commitment to only test when DH is with you, well done indeed! xx

mrsbarnettsbaby · 16/02/2017 00:11

I have no idea! My AF has been irregular since coil removed in July. Last AF was 13/12 but I may have had an anovulatory cycle for all I know. Have only recently started bbt and don't use opk. Trying to take a relaxed approach! We dtd every Fri/sat/Sun. Plus all other days we're together, e.g Christmas break.

sarahboro1 · 16/02/2017 00:05

Hi ladies, I'm just catching up on you all, your pets are so cute!!

Cd13 here, opk still negative, got a few days off now so hoping I'll get a positive soon and get dtd!!

MrsB you really are a saint!! Fingers are firmly crossed for you!! Xx

Roseandbee · 15/02/2017 23:54

Ooo MrsBarnett everything crossed for you! How far a long would you be when you test then?

mrsbarnettsbaby · 15/02/2017 23:43

Ha, I got a bfn on an ic 2 or 3 weeks ago but I don't count them as they're crap! I hate seeing bfn too. Although I'm secretly thinking I could be pg this time. Spotting 5-7 days ago, boobs still hurt and def bigger. Until I see a bfn I can pretend I am! FX for us all.

Moo31 · 15/02/2017 23:34

Sorry dolly - I just scrolled back and I missed your posts yesterday. I think you are cd11 today so we are cycle buddies as I thought! Are you poas opk yet?
