December Bus - Christmas Wishes

Having a bit of an emotional start to the day. One of my friends had a baby last night and I can't even get a static face on my stupid clear blue opk! I thought I was cd13 but I'm actually cd14. I was hoping there would be a static this morning but it's stupid flashy face was flashing away grumpy face.
Sorry for the rant everyone! x

Definitely feeling super impatient over here too. I'm on CD18 but not due to ovulate for another couple of days due to long cycles. No temp spike yet and I'm not using OPKs yet (they sound tricky to interpret!) so just dtd every other day and hoping for the best! Feeling like a long month already...

Good luck everyone.

Morning Ladies. Hoping someone can shed some light for me.

According the Dr I was due to ovulate yesterday. Had to see him on CD12 to check my lining. I also had a positive OPK on Tues. we DTD Mon, Tues and last night. Last night after DTD I just went to sleep. This morning at about 9am I checked for CM and it was EWCM. Do you think that was still left overs from DP swimmers or that it's my CM?

@NoPirloNoParty when did you have your coil removed? Sorry I can’t see your post further down the thread if there is one!

My first cycle post coil was 45 days and I had all sorts of strange cramps/weird symptoms for the majority of it - I think they really play down the effect it can have afterwards when they’re both putting it in and removing it!

Good luck! x

Thanks for the words of reassurance LookingAtTheStars and Babydreaming. On the upside I know that when it does happen for us we will be so grateful and have so much love waiting for our future baby. Good luck to everyone!

Fruit and nutty...try not to stress. Cycle 4 is still early and I swear ppl exaggerate how quickly they got pregnant. My SIL is about to have her 1st and it took her a year to get pregnant but there’s nothing wrong with her! Just hang in there as it can take time.

I’m CD 19 but only 2dpo as I ovulate late!

@FruitandNutty. I'm one cd behind you! Don't worry too much if you haven't had a positive yet, I haven't had one either. I've never used preseed but I'm using conceive plus x

Can I join too?

Cycle 4

Af/bfp due 10th December. I know it's still early days, but I'm feeling really down about the whole thing as I just thought it would be easier than this. Everyone I know (colleagues, friends, cousin) have conceived in first or second month :-( I can't stop thinking about it. I currently temp and we are using Preseed this month, as well as trying to opk but haven't had a positive yet (i'm CD 13).

I usually ovulate on cd18 so I'm curious to see if it'll be any earlier this cycle. I wouldn't normally have a flashing smilely until cd15/16. Yeah lol I pounced on dh as soon as he got home! x

@peterpanwendy I'm on cd12, flashing smiley' s on my clear blue opk for the last few days, just waiting for the big O. Dtd every other day since cd4 so far so feeling hopeful! I've started drinking a glass of orange juice in the morning for the vitamin C :-)

Having really bad cramps today and yesterday. Due AF on 25th but am feeling way more run down than usual.

Don't know if it's having the coil removed messing with me? Anyone any ideas?

I'm joining this bus but not holding out much hope 😞 my cycles baffling me so much and I'm obsessing... I need to relax 😂💕

Hi everyone! Good luck to everyone in FW at the minute and wishing a speedy TWW to you all!

I am due to ovulate on Saturday according to Flo so been dtd every other day since Sunday to try and catch it. My cycles have been really long since coming off the pill back in March so I wasn't sure if I was ovulating, but CD2 blood tests for prolactin/testosterone/LH etc. all came back normal so fingers crossed! Trying to temp every morning to get a better idea of if I am or not but I realllllllllllllllly like my snooze button ....

Flo has me down as AF/BFP on the 10th December but if my cycle is as long as last month it won't be til the 15th. I'm hopeful I'll know by the 9th/10th as have a big event that will be very obvious if I'm not drinking at!

Certainly sounds like it! Welcome stellar, this is also my first cycle after POP. Good luck :)

Started doing OPKs from Monday (CD8). Today's looks pretty close but I'm not sure this is a positive just yet? Surely CD10 is too early?

Hi all,

TTC #1
Cycle 1
BFP due 5/12/17

Not entirely sure about cycle length after recently coming off cerelle, so we will see. Also, DH left the country for work on the day that I was due to ovulate so no DTD that day. Fingers crossed and baby dust to all xx

Yes @HoneyCake86 I always get it! I had horrific tummy ache and pains yesterday so I’m certain that was it!

Fia do you usually get ov pain? After my 2nd child i get it real bad. Like- painkiller bad. And its so local i can tell which ovary it is. but whenever ive told someone that i get it they have never heard of it and look at me like im mad lol

@Babydreaming yes I think I’ll test on Saturday still, just on the very off chance that I did ovulate when I first thought. And only because I’m going out for a bottomless prosecco lunch and hot tub party that day.
If it’s then a bfn which I’m sure it will be I’ll hold off until 30th nov/1st December!

FIa are you still going to test on sat then? Any other early testers?

Welcome Gem!

Owl me too, my temp has gone up a good amount so I’m counting myself as 1dpo today. Annoying as it’s a week late after delaying itself but least I’m there now

Hey ladies, joining December bus as af caught me a few days ago.
