The March 2017 Bus is waiting (impatiently!) in the station...

stuckinny yeah I'm doing one more month tracking and opk and everything I tested cd8 and today CD10 and negative both times, hope I haven't missed it! Fw starts tomoz so by my working out if I was to catch in the next 10 days it would still be November to give birth just about!
Then if nothing this month, I'm not doing anything next month except dtd when I feel like it lol x

MistyB are you using opks again this month?
I got a high reading this morning (cd9) even though one app said fw will start Monday and another said next Friday.

I don't want another Christmas baby either. DS was born beginning of December. It's a tough time of year especially with Thanksgiving at the end of November.

Hi Thingy thanks! It's definitely been made worse by lots of people around me falling pregnant without trying! I'm really happy for them of course, but it does make you compare yourself to others negatively. You're right though it does seem random so it's good to hear of longer success stories . We used preseed last cycle but only used the applicator once (I found it quite fiddly and - TMI here - it was a lot bigger than I was expecting it to be! ) and just used it as normal lube the rest of the time. Going to suck it up and use it exactly as directed this time around though! Good luck to you x

Hi ttcnovice we got pregnant on 4th cycle last time. 4 months isn't that long but it seems like forever, especially when others are getting pregnant first time! My friends have 2 lovely children and it took them 12 months ttc first time and 8 months 2nd time. I know lots of healthy couples who conceived after ttc 8-12 months. It seems so random! Especially when some people seem to get pregnant first time around. I'm trying not to get too obsessed as last time I ttc it was a huge obsession! I'm going to dtd every other day from cycle days 9-18ish. Fingers crossed! Also, just googled preseed- never heard of it before.

Hi all, can I join from the Feb bus? AF arrived last week on my birthday of all days!

Cycle #4

AF due 6th March

Getting a little worried now that I'm onto cycle number 4. There's a little voice of negativity in my head saying why hasn't it happened yet . Will be using preseed again this month.

Hello all,
Please can I join?! I'm a nervous wreck as this is first month ttc since my MC in October 16. Was far too upset, worried and highly strung to think about dtd that much. Am currently surrounded by pregnant women

Only going to use an app and cm to detect ovulation as the cycle I got pregnant last year, had all negative OPKs.
Good luck to you all!

I'm feeling similar misty, all of my DH family have birthdays December/January and it's expensive enough but I can't help feeling that if it turns out that way it's meant to be so I think we will keep going.

It's crazy the pressure we put on ourselves each month and the disappointment when it doesn't happen is crushing.

I'm feeling positive about March though. Here's hoping lots of BFP on this thread!

Morning girlies!! Sorry to see some familiar names from the Feb bus 😩 but feeling positive about this bus!
I'm currently CD10 and fw isn't supposed to start til Sunday but dtd last night and hubs reckoned "a pint" went up there lol sorry tmi but had to laugh 😂 hopefully he can keep that up over the next week!
Although my other app puts my fw starting next Thurs til the 21st! So from tomorrow, just gonna have to dtd as much as possible for the whole 10 days lol.
If it doesn't happen for me this month, I'm going to disembark all transport for a month!
Partly because I'm going insane lol and partly because I don't want a Christmas baby. I know I shouldn't be so fussy and I'm not really in a position to be, but that's what I'm doing!
How is everyone??xx

Hi ladies, thought I'd join the March bus as I think AF showed up yesterday (4 days early )

Oyster

I'm a December baby too and loved it! Fx this is the cycle for us!

My birthday is in December, DD is a NYE baby and I'd be very happy with another December one :)

Hello Ladies.

I believe AF arrived this morning so here I am..

TTC no.1
Cycle 3 (one miscarriage in between)
Estimated testing date March 11th but probably will change.

Here's to December babies!

Hi 👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼
I used opk last month stuckinny but I was reading the results wrong so hoping for a better month this one!
Oyster I'm on cd9 and bored too! Been dtd a bit coz for some reason, I want it all the time when af has just vacated but trying to hold off a bit coz I burn myself out really quick haha 😂 fw starts Sunday according to one app and ends 21st according to another app so gonna try and dtd as much as poss between those dates which means I've got to conserve energy lol hubs works long hours on his feet and my day job is mentally intense 🙈

Hi MistyBxx, I'm just one day behind you. Decided to use opks this month as the last four cycles have been erratic (two 25 days then two 35 days). The whole poas first thing in the morning is already annoying but I know it'll hopefully give me some answers.

Afternoon!
I'm joining loads of threads to try and distract me from being CD5 and BORED. Can't I just ovulate already?

Hey girlies!
I'm on the march train 🚂 as well as this bus 🚌 lol

Cycle 5 (been off pill 6 months though)
Cd 9
Fw starts Sunday!
How is everyone? Any cycle buddies similar to me here :) been dtd for fun a couple of times this month but fw begins Sunday so the real fun will begin then haaa x

I'm jumping on enthusiastically!!

Finally got AF post pill yesterday after 65 days!

Age: 32
TTC: #1 (& only!)
Cycle: 1st proper cycle since pill, currently CD2
AF due: No idea how long cycle will be but Ovia states 22nd March

Was at the GP's this morning and mentioned not getting peak for 3 consecutive months on clearblue fertility monitor and she's getting me to have a 21 day blood test done to check my hormones. Hope this will tell me that yes actually, I am ovulating!! Will put my mind at rest. On CD5 today so a couple of weeks yet for that! Due to start testing with CB on Saturday.

My cycles have been all off a a bit they can be anywhere from 25 to 35 days but usually around 29/30 days
I seemed to be missing ovulation by a few days according to the apps I started temping last month to narrow it down

I've definitely started over thinking and hate that I'm doubting my ability to actually get pregnant when I know it's still early days!
My sisters all got pregnant without trying when they were in their early 20's
I'm a good bit younger than them and they constantly told me to be careful
A few years ago they started to tell me to start trying before it's too late
Love them to bits but talk about head wrecking!!

Hello,

Hoping I can join? I'm new to this so please bear with me on the acronyms

Age:27
TTC#1
Cycle 1
AF due 8th March

I'm using two apps (Ovia and Clue) to help predict! But I'm not sure whether they are actually accurate let's see....also something really strange happened this time as normally my AF is 28/29 days however for the first time this month it was 25 days! Don't know whether I'm subconsciously stressing myself out but wondering has that happened to anyone else?

Jumping on too!

Age: 29
TTC#2
Cycle 1
AF due 1st March, though this is debatable as all cycles since I stopped breastfeeding DD(10 months) have been 27 days, however last month was 30 days. Poss chemical pregnancy?

Not using any methods of predicting ovulation other than dates as I just can't be bothered with the faff. We're very much 'let nature take its course' minded. DD was conceived after two months of trying so fingers crossed we are just ridiculously fertile people!

Morning all. Officially in the tww. I've cut down the green tea and coffee, and replaced with berry and lemon and ginger tea. Here's hoping it has a positive effect.

GemXo - I am currently taking pregnacare before conception, I have been using it for the past month now. Don't know if it help yet as I will be ttc this month for the first time, will let you know how it goes. Before I started taking it I read somewhere that it prolongs your cycle my was not changed.

Can I join please?

Cycle 1
CD 1
AF due March 8th

I came off the pill in November so I am technically on cycle 3 but we were using other contraceptive as we were not ready to conceive.

Goodluck everyone

Anyone else tried pregnacare before conception? I'm currently on day 3 of my pills due to advice from a friend to take it after my 2nd miscarriage
