So this might be a silly question but how do I work out my due date? I've got no cycle history as I haven't had a period since stopping the pill x

BambiOnIce80 · 25/08/2018 09:03

Congratulations @Buttons28! 🎉💐🎊

Wow congratulations Buttons28 that is a very positive frer!

Buttons28 · 25/08/2018 08:53

I think I'm in shock! Just got my BFP! I was getting so frustrated with no AF since stopping the pill. Tested two weeks ago and it was negative. CD57 and this is the result! I just had to share this with someone.

Sending positive vibes and baby dust to you all x

Delilah7 I can see something very very faint I think, that's a true squinter haha good luck 👍

Bambi thank you, I have heard about accupuncture helping, have never had it myself so cant really imagine how it feels but I bet it's very relaxing!

CookieWaffle am glad you are okay and good luck for fw 😊

@BambiOnIce80 @Crossfitgirl tbh I'm pretty sure I'm not this month and shouldn't be too bothered as I have no IDEA where my cycles going to be this month 😂😂 xx

@Delilah7 this is my first natural cycle since coming off birth control, took 75 days for my cycles to start, so Hopfully I'm working right now, Hopfully you get your bfp in the next few weeks

BambiOnIce80 · 25/08/2018 08:41

@Delilah7, my rant wasn't aimed at you lovely - just the ones with the advice (who usually have children) telling the ones of us that don't that if we "just relax" all our fertility woes will be over and we'll get pregnant 😏 I read one study that said stress can actually be a positive fertility factor! 😂

I think the little lines that you can just about see is the line that should have come up pink if HCG was present. When it dries out you'll be able to see it better (I think that's when they call it the evap line). I could just about see it on my BFN yesterday.

Crossfitgirl · 25/08/2018 08:41

Just found this thread... was so confused at so many people from the other thread being here! Lol!
@delilah7 I can't see the first one and wouldn't have seen the 2nd one if Robyn hadn't pointed it out... test again tomorrow? X

@BambiOnIce80 @RanchoRelaxo sorry didn't mean to upset anyone x

BambiOnIce80 · 24/08/2018 23:32

Awww @RanchoRelaxo, I absolutely hear you 💖 We do everything by the book and for some unbeknown f🤬ing elusive reason, it just ain't happening 😞 Gin and friends have been a very lovely combination this evening though, so quite glad for the BFN in that respect. I've decided to take decisive action for next cycle and have added acupuncture to the TTC arsenal - I have my first appointment next Thursday 📍😬

@Delilah7, I hope you are feeling better lovely? I have heard many, many people over the years tell me that all you need to do to conceive is just relax... The urge to punch them square in the face is quite irrepressible! 👊 They are inevitably people who either only had to share a toothbrush with their DP to get pregnant or people with very short memories who have forgotten that they were stressed to the limit until they got pregnant on cycle 11 & then, low and behold, they're suddenly sodding relaxed!! 🤯 Sorry for the rant, but the "you just need to relax" line is like a red rag to a bull after all this time 🚩🐂

@ValidUser, here's to the next cycle and doing it the good old fashioned way 🍸(back permitting, of course 👍).

@CookieWaffle, lovely to hear from you and good luck for your fertile week 🍀🍀🍀

CookieWaffle · 24/08/2018 22:44

Ahhh sorry @ValidUser :( enjoy that gin girl! xx

Just starting fertile week so DP has asked me for dates to BD, will be getting a couple in this weekend :) xx

RanchoRelaxo · 24/08/2018 21:30

Ah thanks girls, Cookie you're right, nature is amazing really and I'll just have to hope that one month soon is my lucky one :)
Sorry to hear ValidUser, has your luteal phase has got longer though? Could be useful over the next month or so 👍
Delilah7 I have heard this too, am tempted to not use opks to try this out.. but I really don't think I could yet, like it would feel like I wasn't really 'trying' my best if you get me 😂 daft I know but I would hate to think I could have done more! Maybe less is more in TTC though 😂
I've have had some gin and am feeling better now, looking forward to the rest of the bank holiday, has anyone got any nice plans?

@RanchoRelaxo I've heard recently so many people say when they just relax and not even look at when they ovulate it seems to happen... hard to believe sometimes. Hug to you xx
