Jump on if you are a TTCer hoping that this cycle is 'the one' and will result in a sprog or sprogette due in November.

Welcoming season ticket holders and new passengers.

Ding ding!

Glad to see everyone else is having EWCM confusion...makes me feel a bit better, I'm not sure when I ov'd but should have been well over a week ago and yet had EWCM yesterday!

Sorry about AF arrivals and good luck to those planning weddings Smile

I have crazy busy week this week so hoping that will distract me from the 2ww and possibility of AF being due on Friday or early next week, though if I'm not PG could just mean I go loopy with PMT and stressful work!!

Congrats whatserface a BFP yay :)

75sarah · 21/02/2011 10:53

Brilliant news - you must be over the moon x

longlady16 · 21/02/2011 11:04

Congrats whatserface - fantastic news!
Just ordered some ovulation tests so trying to be a bit more tactical this month.
Still just in with a chance for November....

Hello waves shyly
My first time posting after lurking on MN for a while.

TTC #1, UCL 23-29 commonly 26, AF due 3 Mar (not sure if this means I'm getting on the right bus, but you all seem like friendly travelling companions!)

Been off pill since April 2010 but only seriously TTC since Xmas. So only on 2nd cycle really, but feel like I've been failing since last spring!

Had morning sickness & dizziness for 1.5 weeks pre-AF last month, but no joy. Hoping better luck this time.

Portsladian x

Loup23 · 21/02/2011 12:21

crazy that I am, tested today (8dpo) and unsurprisingly BFN. Hate seeing them..... really should wait until wednesday but am sure will waste more money testing tomorrow aswell - come on BFPs, someone get one x

Thinking11 · 21/02/2011 12:46

Thanks cep i note all my temps and other ob's on period tracker app on my iphone, its a fab app.

I dont have them online to show but I will put some here
Day 1 - 36.4 AF
Day 2 - 36.4 AF
Day 3 - 36.3 AF
Day 4 - 36.6 AF
Day 5 - 36.2 AF
Day 6 - 36.2 AF
Day 7 - 36.0 AF
Day 8 - 36.0
Day 9 - 36.0
Day 10- 36.1
Day 11- 36.3
Day 12- 36.0 High (cbfm) inseminated
Day 13- 36.3 Peak (cbfm)inseminated
Day 14- 36.2 Peak (cbfm) EWCM inseminated
Day 15- 36.3 High (cbfm) am inseminating

I think I am inseminating on the right days (using donor sperm) but temps dont show anything.

Sorry but im obsessing again, I told you all i would as im off work for a week.

cep · 21/02/2011 13:12

thinking
temps don't tend to go up until after ov. my chart
sounds about right for inseminating for what i can tell. the ewcm is a good sign, are you a 28day cycle? i can't remember stats sorry.

Thinking11 · 21/02/2011 13:18

im 25 day cycle and ov around 14 15 so shouldnt i get a raised temp?

cep · 21/02/2011 13:34

if you're oving around 14-15 then i wouldn't expect temp to go up at least until tomorrow (cd16) at earliest.

Why don't you use my link to ff, join up you get a free upgrade to vip level for 1 month. whilst on this vip level it'll "predict" when it thinks you'll ovulate and when you're most fertile. it asks ucl and then you can fill in when you had ff last and all your temps and it can tell you what it thinks. (basic level is free anyway) if anything it'll keep you occupied for a bit. Grin

cep · 21/02/2011 13:35

loup i was bfn as well, but af not due till friday (if on long cycle).

Loup23 · 21/02/2011 14:56

sorry to hear that cep fingers crossed it was just too early.... hope AF stays away!

i'm not sure when AF is due for me as I ovulated earlier - does that mean AF will come earlier? no idea...

cep · 21/02/2011 15:08

i'm not sure, do you tend to find ov to af the same each month? if so then it might. fx for you too. Smile

goingmadtrying · 21/02/2011 15:45

Well that stupid hpt was calling me and so I got a bfn obviously I have one test left so will wait until Sunday :(

Loup23 · 21/02/2011 15:45

yes cep pretty much, about 10 days after O but hoping B6 and agnus helped that as 10 days is quite short. If 10 days post O then AF might come Wednesday onwards.... fx for you too cep

cep · 21/02/2011 16:17

going know that feeling. fx for you

loup in that case i'd see what happens on wednesday just incase, but if nothing leave for another few days, in case it has helped and try again.

lovenamechange100 · 21/02/2011 17:01

Hi, ive resisted posting on these TTC threads and tried to be 'relaxed' but I'm going out of my fecking mind! Shock

I am in my tww I think i felt nausea on the train yesterday after drinking coffee and the leaning of carraige etc and kept burping, I swear I've smelt things, and I can't isoloate where they are from (I do have an acute sense of smell anyway - but still think this has been increased even for me) I ve been feeling tired like in the drugged up sort of way but did have a busy week last week.

Ive just spent 30 minutes staring at ovulation calendars (comparing differing ones) and looking up stuff I know already, I feel nuts.

Right got that all off my (not sore booby) chest! Blush

I have calculated my cycle from 31st Jan as this was when the first smudge appeared, and started 'properly' the next day. Is this correct? Ive calculated all possible combinations of 27day cycle and 28 cycle and 31st/1st so due sunday/monday/tuesday.

I'm visiting my mum this week with DS(5) and fear its all I will be able to think about.

This is just the start,....This second child is overdue but have started to see befits of big gap etc and even if we just stick at one but then I am so broody...I want to have a BFP but I had an anxcious pregnancy last time and like Isaid this blood tww is just the start..

Is there anyone on here who dearly wants a child but is dreading the pregnancy well at least the first trimester - turing into a mushy mess, anxiety ridden, on doubtful days I question whether I am up to it all especially if Im having a day of mummy guilt re DS(5) for whatever reason....

How did they have babies in fields, you know at lucnhtime then got on with it. Hmm

I am so Confused

cep · 21/02/2011 17:29

hi love and welcome. i think ttc tests the emotions/sanity of most women. Smile cd 1 is the first day of proper red bleed. my dc2 is overdue, wanted 2 yr gap dh wasn't ready (not that he is now mind) almost got a 3.1 yr gap but had mc in dec, am hopin to be due again before ds turns 4. I always wanted a smaller age gap between mine than i had with db.
I've also been symptom spotting like crazy but all could be attributed to other things such as being ill and/or ds waking early. when do you think af due again? fx for you.

lovenamechange100 · 21/02/2011 17:38

Thanks cep yeah my DH is up for it now very much, we will have a six year gap but many benefits I can ss that now.

I had MC last year in June.

Thanks re 1st day thing, honestly its the finest details I find myself checking. This means I am due a week today.

fx for you too Smile

Iggly · 21/02/2011 17:56

Congratulations whats! Great to get out first BFP.

Sorry to hear lou and cep got BFNs but it's too early so its not over yet.

cep what does VIP level in FF get you?

Well another BFN for me this morning. No sign of AF but expecting it tomorrow if the same last month. Convinced my body has gone mad post mc. Also was hoping for a small age gap - will be at least 2.3 years now though.

cep · 21/02/2011 18:19

iggly comparison page i find it too expensive to pay for, mine has just ended so am about to find out how much i miss the vip access. Grin fx she doesn't arrive for you.

Am not sure if it makes it worse knowing that you've missed your small age gap target. i have to admit i had it on my mind alot.

Iggly · 21/02/2011 19:37

cep missing the gap has made it harder because my sister and my friend, who had babies a similar time to DS, have had and are just expecting number 2 so have the smaller age gap. When I was pregnant with DS2, having it miscarriage felt tough - I felt a fraud. Stupid really.

I'm trying not to think too much about the gap but doesn't go away! I'm having a beer tonight as have given up this cycle :)

cep · 21/02/2011 20:48

iggly me to, a friend of mine had dd a week before i had ds, we had same plan of having 2 years apart, she's just had ds in jan. I am really happy for her but very very Envy and sad. I have a really odd feeling in my stomach tonight, feels a bit af like. We'll see.

weimy · 21/02/2011 22:54

:)

Iggly · 22/02/2011 06:36

Thanks weimy

Fingers crossed again for you cep.

I don't know why I keep testing (my wallet is grateful they're internet cheapies). Another BFN but AF not here yet. Feel fine - a mild breakout of spots but nothing else.
