Thought the old one was getting a bit full so I'd start a new one. I'll attempt tagging as many as I can

Oh @Larrydavid sorry you think AF is here. It really does suck. Think we will go down the gp route if we aren't successful this month

I think AF is here for me. Or at least imminent. 4th month of Smep hasn't worked and I'm feeling a bit crappy about it today. I think we're going to get some tests done to see if there's going to be any problems. It's still fairly early for us. Going into month 6. But I'm 35 and would like to know/ rule stuff out.

Hope everyone else is having a better day!

Xjustagirlx I had an extra long cycle this month too, completely not normal for me I'm usually 31 days. It might be stress as when I relaxed on Sunday bam it arrived on Monday !

@Anny27 happy that you now know it was a menstrual surge and you can track your ovulation surges. Are you currently in your fertile window?
I got a peak opk today and have been checking my cervix and CM last few days- feeling your own cervix is sooooo weird! 😆

Motherofkittens28 · 03/09/2019 17:33

Hi @Larrydavid I am at the end of mine AF due on Saturday. Today I've had tinges of pink when I wipe so I guess that means AF is on the way. That's not normal for me though and I still feel very odd. I guess I'll see over the next few days :(

Larrydavid · 03/09/2019 16:57

@MrsH497 how are you doing - apart from the cramps and the odd cycle? 10:30pm finish sounds a bit brutal! I think that will be me this evening - I was pretty passed out on the sofa by that point yesterday!

I think I'm about 10dpo. I'm trying not to test and just wait for period but it's so tempting. I've no symptoms though - nothing out of the ordinary anyway. When I got my CP I had loads of heartburn. None of that this month. Anyone else nearly at the end of this cycle?

How is everyone today?
I didn't finish work until 10:30pm last night I'm shattered today. Bit crampy but as it's the cycle of mystery I can't even symptom spot properly!

@Anna27 I thought about making a doctors appointment but I read online that they won’t do anything until 3 periods have been missed.

I came off the pill in February so I’ve had 5 normal periods. It’s just so strange that they have suddenly stopped.

Anny27 · 03/09/2019 10:15

@XjustagirlX perhaps make a GP appointment?

Have you recently come off contraception which might be making long cycles?

Sorry your body isnt acting as usual :( xx

XjustagirlX · 03/09/2019 08:34

So AF still hasn’t arrived. I’m getting really stressed about it as it makes no sense and I feel like something must be wrong with me. I’m on CD49 and AF is 17 days late.

Anny27 · 02/09/2019 22:42

Welcome to all the newbies as well :)

Anny27 · 02/09/2019 22:41

@kiza think you were right, my high LH at day 5 was just a post AF surge. Its so interesting how much you learn about your body when ttc!

Been a little quiet on here as we were babysitting this weekend so all hands on deck haha.

@flossy12 it's so sad I'm not even excited anymore I'm just waiting for the inevitable AF arrival!

@MrsH497 yeah I'm the same 😅 trying to be all cool and calm but I'm excited already

@flossy12 I'm apparently due on 7th but with the weird OPKs and weird cycle last month I'm not sure. In someways it's nice having a mystery cycle but I'm a control freak!

OP posts:
flossy12 · 02/09/2019 10:57

@MrsH497 me too, apparently AF is due 8th but I'm busy at the weekend so need to know if I can have a drink or not 🙅🏼‍♀️

Hi everyone,

First time poster here.

TTC #1

I am looking for advice - I’ve been using clear blue digital since Thursday, and getting negatives. I got another negative yesterday morning but we DTD anyway. Later that afternoon I could feel stabbing pains in both ovary areas, first on the left and a little bit later, on the right so I took an internet cheapie and it was quite dark but not as dark or darker I would say. This morning when using my clear blue I got a peak static smiley, so I’ve skipped high and gone straight to peak? I’m not sure we will get chance to DTD again...do you think I would be in with a shot just with yesterday’s BD?

Blossomingflower94 · 02/09/2019 08:13

12DPO and BFN for me this morning. Feeling down in the dumps. Can feel AF coming so will log out for this week and try and bring my mood up for this next lot of trying.

Good luck to you all. I'll keep following your progress but won't necessarily post for a week or two. Need to have some 'me' time.

@flossy12 maybe I will! I'm trying to be relaxed about it all!

My positive OPK was on the 19th and cycles are normally 32-34 days long but I'm testing Saturday 😆

MrsH497 · 02/09/2019 05:20

@flossy12 I'm not sure given that I had high OPKs on cd17 and 18 there's a chance I ovulated late so unless my luteal phase is changing and getting shorter I shouldn't come on Saturday more like next week sometime. Oh I don't know lol

flossy12 · 01/09/2019 23:08

@MrsH497 are you testing Saturday??
