I wonder why mine is so long? Odd I have been off the pill since December last year and cycles have been very regular since April. Wow @mctufty hope that goes well for you I would love to have one but cannot afford it at the moment. Currently waiting for partners semen analysis to come back expecting a call off the doctor this afternoon Shock so nurvous! Are you chatting on fertility friend? Mine keeps coming up as unreliable times so a bit annoying. X

Hi everyone can I come along for the ride please?

TTC #1
Cycle 3
CD23
I think I ovulated CD21

I am not long off pill and have a very short luteal phase (opposite of you Poppy!) which was 3 days first cycle then 7 days last cycle. Been on a concoction of supplements and hoping to make the magic 10 days this month. FX for you fireside!

So it's hard to say when my BFP is due but let's say 27 august!

Have done everything we can this month with lots of well timed shagging with fertility gel and legs up in the air etc, and my chart rather than being really erratic as it has been has a great temp spike so you never know!

Also on Friday I'm off for a private fertility check which I booked 3 months ago and there was a long waiting list, but nervous but if there is a problem I prefer not to wait a year before finding out!

FiresideTreats · 14/08/2017 08:36

I'm talking absolute rubbish - I got a smiley OPK on the 6th Aug, not the 15th! God knows where I got that date from, I seem to be living in the future.

Anyway, now on CD23 and still have a headache and light cramping on and off. Not sure if I always get this pre-AF and just never noticed it before.

@Poppy012 - my last luetal phase was 6 days :( :( hoping it was a one off! I'm up to 8 days this month so FX for us both.

spnfan · 14/08/2017 07:43

Whyyyyyyyyyy does the 2ww last so long!? I'm now on DPO2. AF due next Thurs so I can think about testing from Monday, I guess but I'm wondering how exactly I'm going to distract myself for the next 7 days...!!

Suggestions on a postcard please! Grin

Hello, I'd like to join too!

TTC #1
Cycle #1
Cycle day 14
Approx ovulation day 15/16

My period will be due on 29th August. I'm not holding out much hope this month, since DH is away this week and whilst I'm guessing my ov day (I'm not doing OPKs or temping) I'm pretty sure it'll be whilst he's away. Would have been great if it had been next week, when we're on holiday! Ah well, we'll just have to get lots of practice in when he's back Grin

MummysMaison · 13/08/2017 16:55

Hello, i'm going to join you ladies.

Hi, can I join too? :)

TTC #1
Cycle #7
CD 22
AF due any day this week

Got a positive OPK on the 15th, but last month had an unusually short 21 day cycle (usually 25-28). Had cramping all day yesterday and a headache since ovulating but no sign of AF yet. Feel like she's on her way though!

Good luck to everyone! x

Cycle day 17

BFP due 22nd Aug (with luck)

Can't help but symptom spot. Even dreamt of having a baby girl on ovulation day Grin

spnfan · 13/08/2017 11:59

I'm not temping but I'm using OPKs and I'm attempting to use my Fitbit to track my resting heart rate to see if there's an increase!

My cycles vary in length and there doesn't seem to be a pattern to it, which is frustrating and I only started OPKs last month but if I extrapolate that info my luteal phase is only 11 days which isn't great but not bad either, I guess!

Yes you could hVe missed it as the surge comes on very quickly. Mine went from barely there on cd9 to a definate positive on cd10!

timeisnotaline · 13/08/2017 09:52

I am using opks not temping. But was only checking every few days so think I missed the positive, or my cycle is a bit funny. Will try harder next month!

It helps to pinpoint ovulation, and can be an indication to pregnancy also.
I have attached a Picture for you :)
I do it on the fertility friend app it's great

9 days post ovulation. Massive fingers crossed for a positive for baby number 2. Took a test this morning which was negative but hoping it's just because I took it too early!

TTC #2 (DS is 14 mo)
Cycle 1
CD 22
BFP due 22nd Aug

Very excited to be trying for our 2nd, although occasionally think I'm crazy as DS is very active but wanted a close age gap as I'm getting on a bit Grin at 36 so best crack on. Only took a few months to conceive my first but each time is different I guess. Good luck everyone

Welcome all :)
I'm trying for no.2 my daughter is 9 so been a very long time since coming.
Always said I'd never have anymore but I'm 28 now and that has totally changed now I've met my partner and i cannot wait to have another!
The past few months I've spotted every symptom and convinced my self I was pregnant but sadly hasn't been the case as yet!
Glad there is a few of us at the same stage.
Good luck to you all 😁

Nope that's it. With af due next Friday I thought the cramps might have been that but I don't get cramps when af is due she just arrives lol. I really hope this month is my month I'm starting to give up hope. It wasn't this hard with my other 3 lol xx
