My period started on Thursday and has petered out today. I think I'm due to ovulate on cd15 or 16, meaning AF is due November 1st. Anyone else??

This will be my first month properly TTC, using BBT and OPKs, but the general plan is just to BD as much as possible! Haha! Good luck to anyone else x

@Stee1 Hello!

@ClarrieWhite Yeah, I guess that's the 'beauty' of charting BBT - you can see from the dramatic temp drop that AF is coming that day

Haha, glad he's all aboard the making a bay train!

Yeah, I guess, but I had horrible cramps all of yesterday so I really do think AF is about to rear her ugly head. Not long to wait and see though I suppose!

Still a chance for you then, possibly. He remembers what I was like the first time round!

It's so hard/silly isn't it! Even though I knew our odds of conceiving first cycle were so low, I still feel really down. Hubby has been lovely though, so just trying to stay positive.

AF is due on Wednesday unfortunately!

Haha, great that your husband knows what he's letting himself in for!

Aw, I know what you mean. It only took me 3 months to fall pregnant with my son but I was really upset the first two months because I couldn't understand what had gone 'wrong'. Basically, it's all just down to luck though.

Will be BD every two days until my fertile window, when it'll be every day. My husband knows what he's letting himself in for 😂

Hi VJones1985! I'm due 12th November and am just waiting for my October AF after a BFN today. September was our first month TTC and I'm feeling way more emotional than I thought!

Good luck to you and hopefully November will be our month!
