I'm off the September Bus before it even leaves the station and thanks to my longer cycle I thought I'd start the October page.

TTC #1
Cycle #3
BFP due October 4th

@Fia256 I am tempting but having so many issues as seems to fluctuate loads due to me waking up at different times due to different start times.

I had a temp rise today but it’s classed it as inaccurate 😔

@CherryVicky29 are you temping at all or just opks? They say you can ovulate anywhere from 12-36 hours after your first positive

CherryVicky29 · 27/09/2017 08:16

Forgot to add pic for my post oops

So ladies would you say I ovulated yesterday?

Me and Dp bd yesterday morning before my positive on the clear blue, unfortunalty due to along shift yesterday and an early start for him today we haven’t had a chance to BD today yet.

So my question is from the test in pic would you say yesterday was my ovulation day.

Top is clear blue digital taken yesterday AM, muddle is normal test taken yesterday PM and bottom is test taken today AM but looks more faded 🙂

And good luck everyone!

I can't believe we're actually trying.

Cycle 1
(Came off pill beginning of August, but period took time to arrive - so possibly cycle 2?)
I thought I would be really happy to be trying, but am actually feeling so stressed that it won't actually work? Is this normal? Thought it would be all "joyful" but feeling so tense!

Fingerscrossedandfairydust · 27/09/2017 07:12

So I had my first positive OPK this morning but worried I peaked too soon as already made DH BD twice yesterday. I think he is starting to feel the pressure - and BD for me is becoming about the end game rather than enjoying the moment. Any tips to keep the Magic alive / avoid giving DH performance anxiety?!

Cycle 11 boo!

Been off contraception for over a year but actively trying 11 months

Fingers crossed this month ladies xx

Don’t test too soon! I did that and got a BFN last week, and it’s just a waste of a test. I know you all know this already, but testing or not testing doesn’t change the result! If you’re pregnant, you’re pregnant and you still will be in a week’s time!

I’ll leave out the part where DP had to hide the tests from me because I’d become obsessed!

Fia256 · 26/09/2017 17:47

I’m going to try, I just have no willpower! I’ve always had bfps at 8 and 9dpo in the past, so it makes me sooo tempted!

Also having major hot sweats this afternoon for no apparent reason. Was the earliest sign with my last pregnancy too.

I’m sure all this will mean I’m most definitely not this month Grin

HolyShmoly · 26/09/2017 17:30

I'm holding firm till Sunday (12dpo)

But mostly cause I told dh to hide the tests on me. Hold strong Fia!

I won't slap you but I will nab the tests away for a few more days :P

10dpo and fmu. You're welcome

Fia256 · 26/09/2017 16:56

I did a test today. I’m 7dpo. If that. BFN, obviously 🙄 what an idiot, someone please slap me! I’m already thinking about what time to try tomorrow too, I need help 😂

Aph413 · 26/09/2017 16:08

2017 I'm currently in my first cycle post mirena. I had a light bleed 4 days after removal and then nothing. I've not had a positive opk this cycle but had 12 highs so who knows what my cycle is doing. Fingers crossed for you

2017willbebetter · 26/09/2017 15:51

Hello all - been a bit of a lurker I am afraid but going a bit crazy so just needed to see if any of you ladies can offer any words of wisdom...

So I had my mirena iud out on 12th Sept, had a VERY heavy af a couple of days later, then when that finished I started using opks so I could track my cycle.

Then, only 2 days after AF I had 2 days of positive opks!

Anyway that would make me 7dpo today and I have light bleeding, like the start of another AF...

OMG - this will be baby no 3 for us so I am not new to this madness but boy I had forgotten how frustrating it is!!

Anyone have any experience of post-mirena cycle chaos?

Xxx

NimbleKnitter · 26/09/2017 14:18

10dpo and going out of my mind.

Work really not interesting enough to distract me. Think I can get away with doing sudoku at my desk?

CherryVicky29 · 26/09/2017 13:35

Can anyone help with bbt charting cause apparently I’m struggling. So got my peak today but can’t make head nor take of my bbt as it fluctuates massively. I know I missed a couple of days but past few days it has counted a lot of my temps as inaccurate.

I work shifts starting 8am or 9am so alarm goes off at either 6am or 7am so can’t really take temp at exact same time every day.

How does my chart look?

Aww congrats @carringtonm

MegEmski · 26/09/2017 12:40

Congrats @carringtonm - how exciting

I still have 0 signs of anything - boo - waiting to do first FRER Monday!

Although I typed that and then noticed @loobylou124 - I've had some super vivid dreams lately. And I haven't been on it taking vits regularly (whoops)

Marigold83 · 26/09/2017 12:08

Congratulations @Carringtonm xx

Aph413 · 26/09/2017 10:55

My prenatal vitamins have been giving me constipation but I assume that's the iron not the folic acid haha! No vivid dreams yet Grin

loobylou124 · 26/09/2017 10:52

Is anyone finding that their folic acid supplements are causing really vivid dreams?! Or could it just be crazy hormones? X

Congratulations carring!

CherryVicky29 · 26/09/2017 08:15

Has anyone else ovulated a week early, I finished AF last Monday and today got my peak on clear blue digital after 5days of high. Would this be accurate?
