Waiting for cd21/thyroid blood test results next week and will go from there. Had good results on my scan last week.
Can't be arsed with opk/spem/conceive plus Or any of that, so taking the month off. Will just be sure to dtd around expected ov 🤷🏼‍♀️
And continuing with acupuncture.

TWW starts for me too. We were supposed to have a weekend away but a car tyre blew out on the way meaning a tow truck home & no where to sort it til Monday.

Am hoping that's the only bad luck we are having this month! Made up for it with dinner out last night and dtd.

Let these two weeks go quickly please 🤞🏻

mrsawhite · 24/02/2019 18:03

Excellent have also enjoyed a glass of wine while DH watched football. Making hopefully the most of being able to enjoy a glass for a while!

Hello can I Jump on please!?

TTC#1
Cycle who knows
Age 31

I had my 2nd consecutive MC at the end of January- started bleeding on 28th Jan (the day after seeing a heartbeat at a private scan 😩)

I am waiting for my first period- I anticipate it's on its way (I have all of the spots!!) BFP/AF will be due around the end of March maybe the beginning of April- not hopeful I'll be lucky enough to get pregnant straight away but like the support on the bus!

🤞🏻 for everyone! X

MollyD88 · 24/02/2019 17:52

Weather has been beautiful! I’ve had a week off work and should have done lots today but spent the afternoon in the garden with a book and a glass of wine.

@bunhead34 my tsh level was a little high too but wasn’t given anything to bring it down - wonder if I should ask about that? Do you know what that means in terms of it being under/overactive?

Had a bizarre couple of weeks where my temp has been a whole degree higher than normal - been waking up hot in the night and just can’t seen to get it down. The last few days it’s been 37.5 pre- ovulation! Don’t feel poorly at all and seems to have come from nowhere - any ideas?!

mrsawhite · 24/02/2019 16:21

Been for our weekend away. Now the TWW...cold here today. But I've started the couch to 5k thing. So DH and I went for a run with the dog. Hope everyone has a good Sunday!

bunhead34 · 24/02/2019 15:50

Hi all, quiet on here today, I guess everyone is enjoying the weather!

So I got my 21 day blood test results on day, my tsh level was 3.1 which the dr said was normal but they like it to be around 2.5 so have been given a low dose of thyroxine to get that down.
Anyone else have experience of this?

Had a baby filled day yesterday so feeling low today Sad

Ah thanks @Peachyx2505 - right back atcha! Fingers crossed for lots of lovely BFPs in a few weeks! X

Peachyx2505 · 24/02/2019 04:25

Hey suki! Sorry you're here lovely but also
It's nice to have you here. Wishing you all the luck this month xx

Hello, jumping on too!
Age 37
TTC #3
Cycle 2
AF due 18th March (ish)
Had a chemical pregnancy last cycle - watched my BFP get stronger over 5 days before abruptly going BFN. Bit of a shock but have dusted myself off ready for some more TTC Grin!
Nice to be on the bus with you all, fingers crossed for everyone this month!

MilkyMum23 · 23/02/2019 23:46

I would like to get on the bus too please!

TTC #2
Cycle 3
AF due today and hasn't arrived

Had DS in October 2017 but AF only came back in December 2018. Still BFing DS morning and evening so think that's why it took so long. Hoping to continue to BF morning and evening as long as possible.

We have been trying half heartedly since September but properly decided to go for it in January. Already feeling impatient as it only took 4 months to conceive DS once we had decided so hoping for similar this time!

Have been taking Pregnacare for Breastfeeding since DS was born & have been taking the Seven Seas conception for about 3 weeks.

Baby dust to all! Smile

Getting on the bus!

TTC #1
Cycle 2 (or 1? Who knows?)
Cd 3

I came off cerazette in December after about 8 years of no AF, had a breakthrough bleed in January and AF appeared 33 days after that this week! Glad to see AF after worrying it’s been so long it might not work anymore Hmm
Will have to see how my cycles play out. First cycle of actively trying as I’ve been on 5 months of 5000mcg folic acid, vit D, and b12 injections and Doctor has now given me the go ahead Grin

ronniemipperton · 23/02/2019 09:36

Welcome all!

Well we managed to dtd the day before ov I think (thanks for the spooning tip @HappyGoLuckyGo 😂) - that’ll have to do. Not feeling wildly optimistic, I can’t imagine my body’s been a particularly welcoming environment this week...

I managed to stop myself ovulating for years by exercising too much (well, I didn’t think it was too much, wasn’t underweight but my body said it was). Am now considering taking up running/cycling again in an attempt to postpone next month’s ovulation - as things stand it’s going to be while DH is away. Probably not a good idea but I’m kind of curious to see if it works...

FilthyforFirth · 23/02/2019 08:40

I'm also out for Feb. AF had the audacity to arrive 2 days early, I am usually like clockwork, on the 20th. So due AF 20-22 of March.

34, TTC #2, cycle 5.

Husband has ED issues so not holding out much hope and also looking into adoption. Will try viagra this month...

Peachyx2505 · 22/02/2019 18:47

Hi to the new ladies! 🤞🤞 for you. Hoping this is a lucky thread for all xx

Hanni1234 · 22/02/2019 13:46

Hi I’m going to hop in this bus!

TTC#1
Cycle 3 or 4 after MC in November.
I’m 1dpo today, ovulated earlier than I have been doing, my ov pains were so bad yesterday.
AF due probably around the 8th March
Fingers crossed for everyone!!

wannabebump · 22/02/2019 13:24

Can I join please?

Fell off the Feb bus yesterday as AF showed her ugly face 😪

TTC #1
CD2
Cycle 4

Baby dust to us all xx

mrsawhite · 22/02/2019 13:21

Hello!

Hope it's ok to join. I am in fertile window at the mo. Didn't happen for us last month. So fingers crossed for this one. Would be due AF around 9th March. Going away this weekend for a night of luxury to take our minds off it (and hopefully encourage BFP for March 😁)

CoachBombay · 22/02/2019 12:14

Afternoon hope you don't mind me joining. I'm just awaiting AF this evening/tomorrow now. BFN at 14dpo.

Last month was a Clomid cycle but we're going to take a break with that and this time no OPK's. But I have decided to give BBT charts a go this month and see how we get on.

Been TTC #2 for over 2 years now! 🙈

lori2019 · 22/02/2019 08:52

Hello ladies,

May I join you?

TTC #1
Cycle 2
Due AF 10 March
Age 34

Used OPK last month but they made me over think and found the ttw so stressful so we decided this month to go back to the old fashioned way and are just having a lot of sexy time 🤷‍♀️ 😂

HeartvsHead · 22/02/2019 08:40

Morning,

Age: 31
TTC: #2
AF due 8-12th March
Been trying since Sept but have long cycles (35-39 days) so only cycle 5 despite it feeling like an eternity.

@Leleophants I'm using OPKs for the first time this month just for a bit of reassurance. My DH is up for dtd every other day throughout the month but they help you pinpoint ov but detecting your LH surge (the hormone that cause the release of the egg). Mean you can dtd more around ovulation.

HappyGoLuckyGo · 22/02/2019 00:24

@Leleophants DS was a late Jan baby (hours off being a Feb baby!) and it was an excellent time to be pregnant. I did not envy my friend who was due during last year’s heatwave- much better to do the end of the pregnancy in winter, in my view!

raspberrylime123 · 22/02/2019 00:12

Jumping on the March bus. AF came 5 days early this cycle, seems like POAS brings it on it’s so cruel!

Age 21
Ttc 1
Af due 18 March
Cycle 6

Leleophants · 21/02/2019 22:32

Already got a BFN although will be testing again in a few days.

Tempted to try OPK but have no idea how they work and wouldn't know where to start. Also which preseed?

Also - Christmas babies!

joylondon · 21/02/2019 19:55

Hey everyone,

Joining from feb bus today. Af arrived on CD 34 🙄 . Hoping for an earlier O date this month- last month it was CD21, hence the longer cycle I'm guessing.
