I am about to start cycle 5 and wondered if there were any fellow sex pests out there who wanted to join me in regular swi, not so regular poas and plenty of Wine, Biscuit, Brew and [chocolate emoticon].

Hi all - wow a few days away and there are so many newbies!! Welcome everyone and I'm sorry for those who have been disappointed or frustrated this week - especially you weimy, but it sounds like a good plan to take some time off - make sure to plan some things in and spoil yourself, you deserve it.

CD25 for me - not feeling pregnant at all and had a PMT moment this morning (oh the tears!). I'm away from home and didn't bring any tests which was a great decision as I can just relax and be with my wonderful DH.

But I feel when get home another failed month will hit me... I'm so glad to have this thread.

CD 25 for me today so we're almost cycle buddies Boogies Smile

Well I POAS again this morning after phantom line on internet cheapie and nothing (well if I hold it just so there may be a shadow but probably just my imagination) so I will hold off until next week now. Off to see family miles away this afternoon so will have lots to distract me and I won't be taking any tests with me, we'll see what next week brings!

Went to see GP this morning about funny hard lump on cervix - its all fine, a nabothian cyst apparently which is nothing to worry about - but what was slightly frustrating was having to explain to puzzled doctor why on earth I would be feeling my cervix in the first place. Had to patiently describe in infant school teacher voice about cervix being high and soft when fertile etc. Blank face from doctor. Hmmm Shock

Slightly bad news is that I mentioned to the doctor about having weird cycles and my PCOS and asked when I could be referred to specialist. He said that because I have one healthy child already the resources on the NHS for any sort of fertility investigation or treatment are extremely limited (so basically the answer was no). I suppose that is fair enough, but can't help feeling a bit disappointed Sad

Hi All

Can I join? I'm new to this chat room and baby making malarky. It's something I've wanted for a long time but not really been in a position to happen, but we're giving it a go now. I'm not telling anyone in RL, am glad there are other people in the same position. Will try and get my stats right, this is our first month of trying but we've not been all that active due to work stuff so I'm not all that hopeful but we shall see

pinkpony (32) TTC#1 Cycle 1 UCL 28 days AF due 11/12th May

d0gFace · 28/04/2011 15:29

Just got my BFP. I feel anxious like its too soon, if I mc again im not sure what I would do. I know I should be happy but I just feel instantly worried and stressed.

Tiredtrout · 28/04/2011 16:20

Congratulations dogface I really hope it hangs around.

Can I join in too? Ttc#3 I have no idea what my cycle is like as I've been using a mirena since December 2000. Had my first real period in years start today which is nice.

eggyweggy · 28/04/2011 16:53

Hi tired trout, how long ago did you have your mirena removed? I had mine taken out on 20th April, have no idea how long it will take for AF to turn up, so would be interested to know how long yours took to appear?? I'm TTC#3 too...

toddle · 28/04/2011 19:39

Congrats dogface :)

AF got me today a touch gutted will update stats later when on comp

emmaloupolman · 28/04/2011 19:42

Congrats dogface Smile

OBeSomeOtherName · 28/04/2011 20:00

Congratulations Dogface!! Hope you're able to enjoy it properly soon Smile

Eggy I had the mirena removed a month or so ago and had my first visit from AF 2 days later and I know someone who had to wait 2 weeks for their first AF. Hope you don't have to wait much longer!

Sorry to hear that Toddle Sad

Liliana1 · 28/04/2011 21:18

Sorry the witch got you toddle
Cangrats though Dogface, hope all goes well for you xx
Hi tired trout welcome to the bus, pull up a seat :)

Tiredtrout · 29/04/2011 03:28

Hi eggy, I had it out on the 11th but this period is very different than what I remember as it seems to be barely there with hardly any cramping just a couple of twinges. Probably tmi but very strange Confused
I'm sure we'll both have a full on rtd soon enough

MollyDefoe · 29/04/2011 13:19

Hi all!
Sorry, haven't been on here for a while, but have been lurking :)

Am on CD30 of a (usually) 32 day cycle. Just wanted some advice really - all morning, I've had pretty strong cramps, and then (sorry for TMI) lots of yellow CM. I don't normally get cramps pre- or during AF at all (v lucky in that respect!), and have never had CM like this before. Is this a sign, or do I have an infection Confused ?!

d0gFace · 29/04/2011 14:57

Thanks for the Congratulations :)

eurochick · 29/04/2011 15:19

I am not joining any of the monthly buses - too much pressure. This one gives us 12 attempts though, which seems much more relaxed.

peapop · 29/04/2011 18:08

My thoughts exactly eurochick I took it quite hard this month and haven't been trying for very long at all so this sounds like a much better idea! Smile

It has all gone quiet on here ladies, hope everyone is well and enjoying the lovely bank holiday bonanza Smile

Just checking in to say that I caved and POAS this morning when I got back from trip to see relatives. Faint line again (I think) and this time on the superdrug early test not internet cheapie. Not convinced yet though so will try again over the next few days with FMU to see if it gets darker or if my eyes really are playing tricks on me Blush

Congratulations dogface hurray!!!

Definitely agree re yearly bus rather than monthly - much less pressure but same lovely support Smile I would like to think of it less of a bus and more as the Orient Express Grin

d0gFace · 01/05/2011 22:04

Cheers and hope you get that solid bfp!

MollyDefoe · 02/05/2011 07:56

Whoooaahh: BFP! Eek!! What do I do now??

Poppyjen · 02/05/2011 09:25

Wow Molly congratulations! That's such good news, what a lovely way to start the week Grin

DreamingOfABump · 02/05/2011 09:27

congrats poppy and molly :)

Congrats molly and poppy xx

d0gFace · 02/05/2011 10:50

congratulations :)

Poppyjen · 02/05/2011 13:05

Congratulations may be a bit premature for me ladies, still not convinced that the lines I am seeing aren't imaginary or evaps...we'll see what the next few days bring. Thanks anyway though Smile cheered me up to think that I may be able to celebrate soon!
