[... Insert jazzier title here!]

The bus is still running, we're sick of bastard bfns, and crossing fingers (and some) for Feb 2019 babies. Come join!

I'm 35 yo
DD is 3yo
Cycle 25 (urgh!!)
Af/bfp due 18th June

After a few months charting and opk-ing, I've decided to chuck it all out and try and dtd every other day. Eek. Only two more cycles until we start ivf in August so crossing fingers we can get a natural bfp before then. Here's hoping!

Oo tinatsarina test! Fingers crossed for you.

Hi everyone, wishing for bfps for you all this June

I'm 26
TTC #2, DD is 1
Cycle 1 but off the pill since Feb, had to wait til now to try
AF due on 20/06, I want to hold off testing until AF arrives. Would love to be able to surprise DH on his bday in early July.

Have been very tired lately so getting as much intimate time with DH, I would love to just enjoy having fun with him and if we are lucky that's good. Really wanting another baby soon...it'll only be our first cycle trying but I am already hoping so much.

Will try and use opks, last month I gave it a practice and pinpointed the peak exactly.
Are you supposed to DTD as soon as you have the peak or before?

HidCat · 30/05/2018 21:56

@BadBadBeans that's so sad, I'm glad you were able to help.

tinatsarina · 30/05/2018 21:18

@BadBadBeans I'm sorry to hear about your loss and your friends but it was nice that you were able to support her through it.

BadBadBeans · 30/05/2018 21:04

@tinatsarina I think I would test every few days just to have an idea of what is going on!

I've been reading up a bit on ttc after pregnancy loss and I hadn't quite realised that my cycles could be thrown out by weeks. I'm 'due' AF on Monday but I am preparing myself for no AF and no BFP either. Going to keep dtd fairly regularly to try to cover a potential very delayed ovulation. I've given up on opks though - might go back to them once I've had another period and I have an idea what my cycle length might be.

Got news today that a friend of mine has just started miscarrying at a very similar stage to me. So sad. I'm glad I was able to help her though, and that I had shared my own so that she knew to contact me.

jkl0311 · 30/05/2018 18:40

Can't lie ladies I'm symptom spotting already!!! Got a headache today and super tired, dtd Friday last week.... too soon to be having any symptoms??

LethargicButAwesome · 30/05/2018 13:13

Watching the handmaids tale, sometimes it feels as though conceiving is just that hard!

tinatsarina · 30/05/2018 10:39

@Redcup I've had the implant but it expired Dec haven't had it removed yet but lately they've been going back to normal but it could still be irregular I'm not sure how long it takes for the hormones to settle after it runs out

Redcup · 30/05/2018 08:41

@tinatsarina definitely test Smile are you cycles normally the same length?

Redcup · 30/05/2018 08:28

@HidCat I have one test left so I'm going to do it in the morning. I have some more cheapies coming in the post tomorrow.

I got on holiday (glamping) Friday for a long weekend and AF is due Saturday. 

@Delilah7, the symptoms spotting can drive you crazy! 12dpo is still early to test, I have my fingers crossed for you.

lapenguin · 30/05/2018 07:47

Hey! Just poking my nose in!
I came off the pill nearly three weeks ago (Friday). I came off after four days into new pack so had two withdrawal bleeds within a couple of weeks, was not fun!
DC #1 is 21 months and currently running mad around my living room!
Not really doing anything other than dtd as often as possible, OH works nights so it can be difficult.
Not sure when I'm due as I have heard it can take a while to regulate, but if nothing has arrived in about ten days I might get a cheapy to check and go from there!

HidCat · 30/05/2018 06:50

Definitely test!

tinatsarina · 30/05/2018 06:47

So my period tracker is saying 6 days late should I test or wait abit longer?

jkl0311 · 29/05/2018 12:41

@Funkyemzie really hope you get a bfp this month, I lost a close relative last month and been eating in the eve ever since, really trying to get myself back together! Maybe sw might be a good idea as you can follow that through pregnancy?

Helbelle75 · 29/05/2018 11:37

Hi, would love to join you

Age: 42
Dd: 13 months
Cycle: #2

I'm still breastfeeding and 1.5 stone overweight, but time isn't on our side, so we started trying when dd turned 1.
AF returned in December and definitely ovulating so fingers crossed. Due to poas at the weekend.
Good luck to all of you.

Delilah7 · 29/05/2018 11:34

Sorry to intrude but @Redcup I'm 12DPO and I have all of those symptoms but my pregnancy test came up negative :( yet I'm convinced hahaha. Or just obsessed xx

HidCat · 29/05/2018 11:26

@Funkyemzie hello again! Hope you're keeping well. The Mexican was nice but not exceptional. Will probably do it again but tweak it slightly.

@Redcup here's hoping it's early pg symptoms and not AF. Do you have any more tests for tomorrow?

Redcup · 29/05/2018 10:41

Today is 11dpo (I think - EWCM and ovulation pain)

I did a cheapie test this morning and it was invalid, no control line or test line came up. Angry

I know it's early but I've been symptom spotting and driving myself crazy...

My boobs are are so sore and have been so for days.

I felt so nauseous yesterday and couldn't keep my eyes open all day. But I could of had too much sun on Saturday.

And I keep getting slight crappy/aching feeling in my lower abdomen. This has been going on my the last 3 days, almost like AF might start but then nothing. I never get period cramps until AF actually starts.

But it all could be in my head....

Funkyemzie · 29/05/2018 08:46

@Jkl0311 thats an every night occurance for me atm! Starting back slimming world tonight, need to get rid of this stone and a half I've put on since MC.

@Hidcat how did the mexican go last night? X

jkl0311 · 29/05/2018 07:46

@CatRen27 suppose to be just eating healthier and snacking less, but last night was stressed and tired so ate 2 slices of cake once lo went to bed !!

Pudding01 · 28/05/2018 22:06

Hi everyone. The fertile window is soon approaching for me... According to a calculator it's Friday - Wednesday, although I have bought the clearblue ovulation tests to know for sure. Bit nervous! This will be month 9!
But I go on holiday on Monday so I'm hoping my mind goes off tracking and the romance comes back in 😉😂 x

Funkyemzie · 28/05/2018 18:32

Hi everyone. Sorry to see a few familiar names on here still.

So...
Age 37 (last week) 😩
DD is 10 (where did that go)
Cycle #9

Hoping this is our month after MC in Feb at 10+4 weeks, carried on for another 4 weeks and finally got a positive(ish) OPK last month.

Just got a positive(ish) OPK today so currently lay in bed with a pillow under my butt as I'm typing (tmi😂, we've all done it). My opk results have never been as dark or darker than the control line so as soon as they start to go darker then we start bd'ing at that point.

I'm thinking of trying the pineapple this month, at what point do I start with it? Also, trying SMEP this month too.

HidCat · 28/05/2018 17:32

@Pinky333777 welcome and good luck!

Pinky333777 · 28/05/2018 16:02

Hi all. I'd like to join please!
I'm 37, ds1 is two months old and I've just come off the pill (after being on it for all of a few weeks! 😀)
We've decided we'd like a sibling for our baby boy, and as the biological clock is ticking and we aren't getting younger we decided no time like the present!
Fingers crossed x

MrsMDD · 28/05/2018 15:52

@HidCat Thank you, I will indeed. Oh the dreaded two week wait.. hopefully you will have your BFP at the end of it Smile
