Okay so af is due tomorrow and I was feeling hopeful until this evening when I started cramping and had pink tinged cm when I wiped so guess I'm out. Again!

So, onto the next cycle. Anyone else? Introduce yourself!

I'm Becki, I'm 27. I'm ttc#2 but I've been pregnant twice. Daughter is 8 (from previous relationship) had to have a termination with my last pregnancy which left me with scarring in my uterus. I'll probably find it hard to conceive, if at all :(

Hope there are a lot of bfp's coming in March!! Smile

CD11 and bfp due 9 March....got a faint line on OPK today so we will be dtd every other day for the next week or so.

My sister in law gave birth to my first niece this morning and I'm feeling very positive this month which is surprising Smile

So bizarre as none of my friends are doing this and I have no one I can tell! I don't even have a pregnancy test in the house... I had a copper IUD and have been counting days for 6 months (so I know it's regular) and erratically taking folic acid so I guess I'm good to go.

Good luck everyone!

I'm joining from the February bus - just started my 2ww and I'm due to test 4th March. I was a bugger for testing early last month and I'm determined not to do that again this month! Hoping my fellow mumsnetters will help keep me sane for the next 2 weeks. GemXo I have my fingers crossed for you.

GemXo · 18/02/2017 15:02

Ok so it's officially the first day of my FW. DP and me have already DTD 3 times todayWink it's a happy/sad time for us as our first baby would of been due on the 8th of March which coincidently is my AF due date. How bizarre would it be if we got our BFP the day our baby should of been born. It would be a bitter sweet moment wouldn't it? FX.

ZEB91 · 17/02/2017 11:12

Just wondering were everyone's up to in their cycle?
BFP due 5th of March
Just got my 1st faint OPK and on my way for a spa weekend with OH so hopefully I catch my LH surge!
I've decided if I don't get a BFP in March to wait until April to try again.
According to 'glow' app My fertile week will be due when I'm on holiday
And according to my psychic reading I should have a BFP my May!

Baby dust to you all. Let's hope March is our month

Sorry to hear of your MC Anna Flowers

Anna2006 · 12/02/2017 15:09

Oh that sounds odd bumblegum. What CD are you? I thought my AF was gonna be late this cycle and all messed up but nope it turned up on schedule again annoyingly. We'd done so well this month & tried so hard. March has to be our month!

We can do this ladies!

Sorry to hear that, Lindsay :(

Af did show up cheese really heavy for a day then vanished. Then last night I had pink cm when I went for a wee, not too much of it though. Nothing since and nothing a day before that either. So confused lol

Hope everyone is good!

Welcome along Anna!

I keep seeing on here that people's cycles seem to go crazy when they start ttc. Our bodies are so annoying!

Bubble any sign of af yet??

I am symptom spotting of course. Only managed to dtd once during FW so not holding out much hope. Bring on March!!

MistyBxx · 12/02/2017 12:00

Sorry to hear that Lindsay. It is defo stressful. It could be stress but just wait and see chick xxx

ZEB91 · 12/02/2017 09:38

Really sorry to hear that lindsay TTC is one of the most frustrating things we go through.
Being late may just be caused by the stress of your break up.

Stay strong xx

Lindsaymarie89 · 12/02/2017 09:29

Hey Girls! So.... me and my DP decided to go our seperate ways. I thibk TTC put too much pressure on the relationship! This was 2 weeks ago.......im now 5 days late, absolutely no sign of AF! Had BFN when 3 days late! Is it possible im just late?

Anna2006 · 12/02/2017 08:23

Me too ttcnovice I know it's early days at month 4 and to take upto a year can be normal. We fell pregnant first month though back in July and so now after 3 attempts since mc that have been very well timed I'm like why hasn't it happened?!

Guess some of it is pot luck lol. We only have like a 25% chance each cycle. Have to hope some luck comes our way soon!

AF due 6th March

Can't help but feel a little worried now we're onto cycle number 4. I know it's still relatively early days, but I've started to think why hasn't it happened yet, is something wrong? Going to try to keep positive though!

QueenoftheKings · 11/02/2017 16:50

Thanks Oyster I've downloaded Ovia and will have a look on amazon Smile

Oysterbabe · 11/02/2017 16:38

I use Ovia and One Step OPKs I got from Amazon.

QueenoftheKings · 11/02/2017 16:23

Our bodies are just cruel aren't they?? I wish we had a little window so we could have a look at what on Earth is going on in there. Period has completely vanished. Not a trace. Woke up in the night to a wet feeling and thought, oh here we go again. Nope. Just loads of watery cm. who even has watery cm the day after a period?! I give up, honestly. I'm not doing anything this month other than have loads of sex. My OPK's are going in the bin and I'm not paying attention to any symptoms. Silly uterus.

Same queen 😂 I've convinced myself I'm pg every month since November lol. Crazy what our bodies do to us... or should I say what they don't do to us, but what our brains decide they're doing lol.
Best of luck everyone!x

Evening all!

How's everyone doing? My period has gone awol. It was so heavy yesterday, I don't think it's been that heavy since I was 15. I filled 4 tampons which is unusual for me, I can usually fill 1/4 of 3 on my "heaviest" day. I was lying in bed and hadn't put a new tampon in yet and I coughed and I had to do an emergency flip out of the covers to avoid a scene from Psycho. I figured it would be about a medium flow today but it wasn't at all. In fact, I only used 2 tampons and there was barely anything there so much so that I didn't bother using any more. And now it's bone dry down there. Wtf is my body playing at?? My cycles are normally bang on 28 days, I usually have 3-4 days of my period (2 medium, 2 light) it's like my uterus knows I want a baby and it's being an absolute dick for the fun of it.

@MistyBxx we usually DTD every other day on the lead up and then everyday in FW and then maybe 2/3 times a week after until AF comes
Going to probably go every other day throughout this cycle and am considering using a sperm friendly lube in FW to hopefully keep his guys healthy while they wait inside

Am also considering stopping all caffeine and fizzy drinks this month Hmm
