TTC #2 (August bfps)

Sorry Pocket. Join the September thread

Well the witch got me.
Im on cd 2 now, gona take soy iso's as of tomorrow (3-7).. read alot about it so will be doing that as had enough of the inconsistent cycles now and getting nowhere!

Lopey I really would likw to know too. I feel so confused by my body right now. Really don't know what to make of it. In the past when I had a vwry stressful month af sometimes would not show. But this month I was on holiday and it has honestly been the most relaxed I've been in months! So I do not understand it. Also I have af symptoms...cramping, back and leg pain so I know it's meant to be on its way.

Oooo, good luck nubian and pocket!

I don't understand this af being late business....I thought luteal phase was supposed to remain constant, within 1-2 days? Therefore, if you know when you ovulate (and we mostly do, cos we're obsessed!), then you just count your luteal phase from then, and bam! Af or bfp (preferably!).

If af is late then it means luteal phase DOES vary, so have they been telling us a lie? Or is this what happens to bodies as you get older?? I am interested because, for me, af has never been late in all the time I can remember, until my weird cycle last month, where it was late and my luteal phase had increased by 2 days. This was very odd. Does it mean my body is winding down for the menopause or something...? I am really scared.

Reading everyone else's posts it seems so common for af to show up late but us not to be pregnant. It doesn't make sense; this shouldn't happen based on what the understanding of the female body is! (Sorry for rant )

Same here Pocket. I am 5 days late but keep getting bfn. I think af might arrive Friday.

Hey guys.
Sorry went awol again, had to take drastic measures to stop ss!
Im a week late today, last test i did was day af was due and was a bfn. Lost hope to test now.
Although, cervix is very high and soft. I had some cramping but nothing else really. No sign of af turning up at all. Fx something worked, im just gona hang on a few more days to test sick of seeing bfn x

Yay Tiramisu!!!! Great news for the August thread at last!! Congrats and have a healthy pregnancy xxx

Fantastic news Tiramisu. So very pleased for you! Wishing you a smooth pregnancy. Now send some baby dust out way!

4 days late but still negative hpt. I am not really hopeful tbh. Af symptoms are prominent, although no sore boobs. First month my cycle seems off.

Thanks everyone - I tested at 12dpo and got a BFN karpuzkiz but definite BFP this morning when AF is due. Even when I showed the test to DH, he said there were two lines.

motherofboy I think this is cycle 4. First cycle properly using opks though rather than just relying on my freebie app

Congratulations Tiramisu

Congrats tiramisu.

I'm going to hop over to the September thread, I've been lurking but not posting as I was trying to relax more and find myself back in the 2ww.

Yay Tirasimu xxxx

Finally some good news! Congrats tiramisu! How many months was it for you? Also congrats to you too chloe.

I have hopped over to September bus. 7dpo and not feeling optimistic...

Yay tiramisu great news! Did you test early or manage to wait it out?! I'm not feeling any different at all this month

Congratulations tiramisu I hope it's a sticky one and you have a smooth pregnancy. Finally some good news on this thread

Sorry to hear that cupcake - at least a short cycle means less time to wait to try again.

Got my BFP this morning! So I won't be joining the September thread, but good luck and baby dust to you all and thanks for your support on these threads. Hope to be hearing about your September BFPs very soon

Sorry Cupcake

I'm out, she arrived today a day earlier than expected. 24 day cycle this month.
All the best tiramisu, let us know how you get on baby dust to you xxxxxx

Fingers crossed Tiramasu.....hope to NOT see you on the September thread Good luck!

Thanks Nubian - I feel a bit different from the last few months so am still quietly hopeful.

Fingers crossed for kashy and others.

Thanks for starting September thread lopey - will probably be on there in a day or two

Thanks for starting the September thread Lopey. Will post updated stats once af arrives and cycle 6 starts.

Sorry about the Bfn Tiramisu but you are definately still in with a chance.

Sounds promising for you Kashy. Fingers crossed for everyone waiting to test. Baby dust everyone. My af is still late but will start wondering if I'm pregnant If it doesn't arrive tomorrow. Have only slight sore boobs which is unusual for me. Normal af cramping along with lower back pain and pain in legs. I don't feel hopeful at all.

Keeping my fingers crossed for those waiting for Af/BFPs. It feels like we definitely need a bfp to lift us.

I'm around ovulation time now. Usually I get a couple of days of high opk then one day of peak. This time I have had three days of flashing face and my temp rose this morning. I've been testing two-three times a day...can I have really missed the peak surge? Maybe it only lasts for a few hours at my age :( Anyway, if it has happened I'm hoping we have a good chance as we managed to dtd everyday since Thursday.

I'm up for a September thread, no idea how to start one otherwise I'd do it!

Hope everyone is enjoying the bank holiday weekend. I'm in Scotland so there's no bank holiday, no sun and I've been working all weekend!! Rubbish. Only today and tomorrow to work then I'm on leave so can't complain too much.

Good luck everyone x x

Ok....I think this it is:

Please post, update your stats, etc!

I made a new thread but I can't figure out how to link to it?!?!?! (I'm on the mumsnet app on my phone rather than the website which might be the problem....!) if anyone knows then please post a link...it's called TTC #2 (September bfps)! Otherwise I will try to figure it out...

Yes let's have a new thread for September! Like impatient mummy said last time: it seems better to start fresh with a new thread....otherwise this just seems endless...!

Been reading through the threads (sorry not posted for a while) and sorry to see all the sadness. Ttc is such a sad and stressful time.

Another friend of a friend (wife of oh's friend actually) just announced a pregnancy....they had been trying too...not sure how long for though. She is much younger than me.

Good luck to those waiting to test....ages for me yet (o day next week). We really need some good news, i.e. a bfp on here, to keep us positive!!
