I got that on Friday night around 10pm...so Saturday or Sunday. Day 8 or9 I think. My cycle is so messed up ATM

Nubian9454 · 03/09/2017 22:00

Dragon Friday appear as positive...would have ovalated with in 24 to 48 hrs.

DragonsandDungeons · 03/09/2017 21:45

Beansprout

I had EWCM and a mild cramp. I think I ovulated early last cycle but my last cycle was very messed up because in August I had a D&C. Before my previous pregnancy I had normal cycles. I had a hormone panel done a few months ago and it was fine.

Beansprout30 · 03/09/2017 21:44

Sorry for af Dolly, onwards and upwards to next cycle!

GotaDolly · 03/09/2017 21:41

Should add, I'm 33 and have a son who is 21 months old.

GotaDolly · 03/09/2017 21:40

Evening all. Hope it's not too late for me to comment. Just has period that was due 1/9! Now due af end of September. Been trying since Christmas Sad

Beansprout30 · 03/09/2017 21:40

Cd7 is quite early but everyone is different, did you get any other signs of ovulation?

Welcome Space! I'm new here too

spacepoodle · 03/09/2017 21:35

Can I join please? Been trying for a few months and the last time I joined a conception thread I got a BFP almost instantly. Hoping for similar luck from this thread! Ovulating today or tomorrow.

DragonsandDungeons · 03/09/2017 21:34

Thanks Beansprout.

Friday was CD7 so I appear to be ovulating really early.

Beansprout30 · 03/09/2017 21:33

Friday looks like a positive to me Dragon, couldn't be sure when you ovulate unless you temp but dtd on the days you've said will have put you in with a good chance!

DragonsandDungeons · 03/09/2017 21:22

Posted this on my own thread but if anyone here experienced with OPK can help. Was fridays a positive? And if so would I ovulate Saturday, Sunday or Mon? And would dtd on Wednesday, late Saturday and Sunday morning mean I missed the window? Thanks.

TTC #2 (September BFPs)
HappyHedgehog247 · 03/09/2017 21:11

Hi. I'm a newbie, please may I join? I'm 42 so my chances are low, which I am aware of. This has been my first month TTC for #2. Have just started my TWW and it seems soooo long! Have been using Clearblue fertility monitor in morning and cheap opk sticks in afternoon plus conceive plus lubricant. Acupuncture next! Good luck to everyone x

Gudgyx · 03/09/2017 20:51

Yay congrats all the BFPs!

I'm due AF on Tuesday - have normally had my migraine by now that signifies AF coming, but I haven't yet which is interesting. I've been very light headed recently too.

Still not getting my hopes up but will pick up a test tomorrow to do first thing Tuesday morning!

Beansprout30 · 03/09/2017 19:07

Good luck with acupuncture Lady, let us know how you get on

ladydolly · 03/09/2017 16:29

Fertile week has arrived! Flashy smiley on cb so afternoon quickie while dc1 was napping. Dp.out tomorrow so will go again on tues. Might inadvertently do the SMEP this month. First accupuncture appt/consultancy on weds eve.

LopeyLopez · 03/09/2017 08:00

Wow, congrats mother! I'm also cycle 7 so just hoping it's a lucky number 7 for me too!!

Can't keep up with this thread....I go away for one day and come back to another bfp! It's great!!! Just what we need!

I was away for a night and forgot my bbt thermometer and opk! Which was maybe a blessing in disguise as it was much less stressful I guess and I could relax and enjoy the holiday mood more....downside was that it was at the CRUCIAL time, as in I was just about to ovulate! Starting temping again this month to get some clarity on when I actually ovulate, as it's fairly predictable and I always get a positive opk and strong pains to guide me, but I started wondering if the pains were perhaps AFTER ovulation and I was dtd late or something.....? Just trying to find reasons why I seem to miss out month after month...

Anyway, whoops, might not have answers this month because of my slip up with one day temps and opk missing....or will I?! Because I actually had a positive opk this morning, the pains last night, and still no temp rise (tho my temps have been a bit all over the place tbh, despite exact same time taken every day). Looks like maybe the pains come BEFORE o for me. So not as bad as after in terms of dtd, but I could have been doing it too soon before o maybe...? I don't know.

Gosh, all this is very long and boring, sorry! Just trying to tie up lots of loose ends to get a clear picture I guess, and thinking aloud.

Obviously if I get pg this month I couldn't care less about how all these things interact!! But if I don't it would be useful to know for future planning.

Really hope the luck of this thread rubs off on those of us that are still trying!!! Smile

Just catching up with all the news... Congratulations Mother! So exciting to have 3 positives already!

Hi to the newbies...
I also agree with the others Penny and would stick with your plan.

Unicorn and Nubian, I hope you get some clarity soon, it's rubbish being stuck in limbo like that.

So I'm on day 22 of a 26(ish) day cycle and feeling very tetchy! I also had some blood tests done on Friday as I'm starting to worry I'm in early peri-menopause. I've only just turned 36 but my mum went through menopause in her late 30's... Results of those due around same time as AF so could be a double whammy.
Hoping some the good luck from this thread rubs off and all is ok!

Penny31 · 03/09/2017 07:21

Thanks guys. Dp wants to wait until Tuesday to decide. That's when he gets a bit more info about his current situation, I'm trying to be understanding but also annoyed that might mean we miss the window this month. Anyway, I'll stay on the bus and people watch.

Got my fingers crossed for bfps for all xx

Nubian9454 · 03/09/2017 07:08

Unicorn do you have any symptoms?

Uppity I think I might with it and see.

cautiousoptimist1 · 03/09/2017 07:06

Hi beansprout, I share your concern about potentially having a toddler and being pregnant/having a newborn. My LO is almost 15 months and much happier than she was as a baby but doesn't sleep much in the day (never has!) and is constantly on the go.

Penny, I agree with the other ladies and I'd continue TTC, you never know how long it's going to take.

June 6 years?! Wow, I think you're amazing!

Keeping fingers crossed for nubian and unicorn hope you get some answers soon.

OvariesBeforeBrovaries · 03/09/2017 00:17

I can finally make my way over from the August thread, AF showed up Grin so hopefully a BFP at the end of September depending on my cycle. Good luck everyone!

My stats are -

Age: 23
TTC #2
Cycle 3
DD1 is 3 (and starting school next week :( :( :( )

UppityStitch · 03/09/2017 00:11

Welcome @Beansprout30! I also agree with Lady, life always has a way.

@Nubian9454. How very odd? It's horrible not knowing either way. Hopefully a trip to the docs can give you some answers. I think most pregnancy vits might have the same issue as another lady mentioned it on another thread and she was taking Seven Seas. If you feel it's helping then stick with it, I am!

MynameisJune · 02/09/2017 22:52

Congratulations Mother, fab news. Fingers crossed for a smooth 9 months for you x

Hi Beansprout, we were ttc for 6 years with DD so completely understand how you can become obsessed. Hope this thread helps a bit.

Currently on cycle 5, had my 21 day bloods yesterday and I'm on the waiting list for a pelvic scan.

Unicorn22 · 02/09/2017 22:33

Woohoo mother congrats!! 3 positives and it's only 2nd sept!

Thanks for the support ladies, I tested today and bfn for me. AF is now 5 or 6 days late (starting to lose track!). Just wish AF would come if it's not meant to be. Keep your spirits up nubian but I do know how you feel.

Penny I agree with everyone saying to keep trying. You never know how life pans out!

Welcome beansprout my DD is 13 months too, likes to get up multiple times at night and up for the day at 6.30 - 7!

LadyPug · 02/09/2017 21:38

They are exhausting aren't they but worth every second. I also don't handle the early sleepless nights so well!
