Trying to Concieve 10 ... the LUCKY thread!

According to Fertility Friend, it is the day your AF starts properly. Spotting doesn't count.

Hi all - quick question for you - is CD1 the day your AF starts "properly" IYKWIM OR the day you start spotting? I thought AF had arrived on sat. 11th, and have spotted since then (not enough for a proper sanny towel - sorry for TMI!!!) Anyway period started properly today - what is CD1 today or Saturday?

Eveningto you all..Am bding in the evenings as am most fertile now[i think],but just checking to see how your all doing..

Hey, no worries . It'd be a miracle as only on CD9 on first TTC cycle this time round.

Oh dear, I'll take my foot out of my mouth now - sorry Serves me right for not reading the whole thread.

Oh gosh, soryy - no, not this time round. I was talking about last time with DD - it followed on from the previous messages, sorry!

I wish!!!

Hulababy - fantastic news. Many congratulations! Are you the first graduate of this new thread?

I was supposed to wait to test until DH got home from work, but couldn't wait any longer. Was being sick daily by then. I tested and got BFP. Phoned DH who was so lovely. He brought the biggest bunch of flowers home woth him that night!

me too...I refused to believe that I could be pg with ds.....I took the test just to prove that af was late..and I was over stressed.

ran the bath nipped to the loo and ..+++++++ nearly flooded the bathroom!!

I did that when I was pg with DD. After all those months of nothing, it was about 6 weeks when I did test. I think the pink line took about 10 seconds to show up by then!

I got to the stage where I couldn't bear to test because I was worried it would be another bfp .... and then fail. I left it until about CD42 this time before testing so it really was a bfp

Wow Runtus - that is fab mat package!!! And I thought the teaching was good, but no where near that.

I can really sympathise with you pamina. Last time around I told a group of my friends quite early on, then I had the mc, then a little later on one of the group became pregnant - and I had to watch and smile and be pleased for her (which I am but it's difficult to get the emotions straight) as she "overtook" me.

My GP has referred me to the EPDU for a scan so hopefully I'll get an appointment soon - whether it'll put my mind at rest I don't know.

Minnie1, I'm just about to start bd season. About CD10 or 11, something like that. Have warned DH that he has got a lot of work to do this weekend .

It's so difficult to know what to do about testing, isn't it? If you do and it's BFN it is so bloody depressing. Do you have any idea when you actually ovulated this cycle? If it was quite late on in your cycle that might be why you got a BFN on Monday.

Pamina3, you did better than me, I worked my way through a bottle of wine! Am suffering a bit today so it serves me right. No more after this weekend...

Sorry to hear your news Sallie, take it easy love and better luck for the future.

Congratulations Alterego - great news!

Bit of an update - I just had my review and managed to get my potentil Maternity Package increased from SMP to 6 months on full pay! I am soooo happy I can't quite express it

All I have to do now is get sodding pg......

MrsWednesday,
I havent done a test yet today as i just can't bare another BFN.. I'm all confused with all the signs (is it AF or am i PG) eventhough the test monday was a BFN. Do you think i should test today?? Its a cruel game this TTC..
where are you on your cycle?

Sallie, I'm so sorry to read your news ((((hugs)))). It is a horrible thing to happen, no matter how far along you are, because as soon as you see that BFP you start dreaming and planning.

The same thing happened to me two months ago (got positive test, then a week later started bleeding). I didn't go to the doctors but also think perhaps I should have done as it was my second this year (had a missed m/c in April).

Congratulations Alterego . After everything you've been through this must be a very nervous time. Have you had an early scan?

Minnie1 - have you done a test yet today?! The month just gone, I felt really sick and really tired for a few days but either it was a strange pre-AF symptom or my body playing cruel tricks on me because AF arrived just on time. I've got my fingers crossed that this isn't the case with you.

Welcome CP3. Happy Birthday to your DS (posted on other thread). I guess you are nw feeling more than just broody! Good luck

Im on cd 15 so should be ovulating around now! My ds is one today so gonna try for another tonight. Good luck to everyone else trying especially you BeckieF
