Thought I would take the plunge and start the June thread! I won't be getting my May BFP as my cycles are sooooooo long. Who's. With me?

Can I join (although also on the May thread - cheater) but heading away for work tomorrow and don't think I've ovulated yet so likely May won't be our month - here's to June!

Just went off BCP in Feb, got BFP straight away but then MC at 6 weeks - here's hoping the wait won't be too long this time being hopelessly unrealistic

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 06/05/2012 21:21

Hello again ladies.

Still in the middle of first af since May 2010. Breastfeeding dd has delayed return of af but she is back now and oh my god is she punishing me

Really hoping June is a better month for us.

Before having dd I had a fairly regular 31 day cycle so will be testing around 4th June. Have a feeling cycle may be a bit out of synch though.

Here's to June Wine

FloweryBoots · 07/05/2012 07:12

I think I can join this one! I started a new job recently which has meant we've felt we need to wait a little longer than we might otherwise have to start working on number 2. DH was talking about June, but I think I've got him pursuaded that we could start in May (the realisation he's away for 4 days i June which are likely to be over my fertile period and a lovely baby visiting us this weekend, and seeing how cute DS1 was with him seem to have helped!). He might get cold feet and insist on waiting another month, so I might be a bit premature posting here, but I am SOOOOO excited now we might be getting started I couldn't help my self!

So, AF about finished, just need to get rid of my bloody persistant thrush, and DH's cold and then we can hopefully get going.

RightUpMyRue · 07/05/2012 10:29

Hello you old buggers Grin I'm in here looking for winkle, she's supposed to be POASing this morning and we're waiting for some good news on the May thread....

winkle2 · 07/05/2012 11:21

Looks like I'll be joining you here! got cramps and spotting and a BFN today.

Pinkie29 · 07/05/2012 11:23

Can I join please? Ttc no 1 looks like cycle 4 starts today as the wicked red witch has arrived Sad me and dp both 30 neither of us ever had children or been pregnant (that I know of) wishing I could wave a magic wand as everyone around us is getting pg 'just happened' finding it all very hard atm

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 07/05/2012 12:58

Oh winkle gutted for you.

I don't think May is a lucky month though. June will be the one.

pinkie 4 months isn't that long at all even though it feels like it

Pinkie29 · 07/05/2012 13:23

I know just feels like forever Sad my cycle is very long roughly 6 weeks so will have been trying 6 months by the end of cycle 4 if that makes sense? Only gives us 8 cycles a year as opposed to 12 like most couples

KylieP · 07/05/2012 14:29

On day 31 and just POAS for good measure, no BFP and no luck at all with temps this month, plus a teensy bit of v light spotting, so think I can safely say May is out due to lack of ovulation and June it is! Might have a Wine tonight while I can! First acupuncture session tomorrow so fingers crossed! Oh god what if I actually ovulate for once this month when I'm on my girly holiday for a week! I will have to fly DH in for emergency dtd!! Grin...oh crap, I've scared myself now, that would be so frustrating! :(

winkle2 · 07/05/2012 22:07

Right girls, what we doing this month to get our BFPs?

I'm ditching the sticks and going for sex every other day.

Hubs and I both on the vitamins.

Counting calories and back in the gym to get healthy again.

No alcohol for me and oh cutting right back on alcohol.

KylieP · 07/05/2012 22:12

I'm going to cut back on Wine, be really healthy, dtd every other day apart from my hol, have my first acupuncture session, stop freaking out and googling fertility rates (like I'm doing right now!) and enjoy good food, relaxation and some sun!

tedmundo · 08/05/2012 08:20

Righto ladies, I am here for a June Bfp please! May was not my month but hey ho!

Less wine, more RELAXED shagging, trying not to stress too much, vitamins and early nights are my plan to get knocked up.

Hi everyone!

Sorry to see some familiar faces here from the May thread. THIS WILL BE OUR MONTH!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome to the newbies!

I have seen my Gp. She is going to try and chase up my hospital appt. We also discussed my chemical pregnancy in April. She said that given what I told her (dates and all the TMI about what happened) that it was most liekely an early miscarriage. I knew this deep down. Very sad as I think I have had a few of these over the last year or so.

Anyway, will be recommencing dtd tonight as everything has settled down 'down there' and bleeding has finally eneded properly. Have been crap at temping. Keep forgeting. Will be setting alarm tomorrow morning. Starting opks this week as well. CD12 today.

This month to get my BFP I will:

Eat a super healthy balanced diet
Avoid the booze.... although I am going on hols end of the month so will hopefuly know by then if I am pg or not....
Regular exercise
Lots of dtd, AT LEAST EOD!!
peeing on OPKs
Extended winkle time after dtd
Using lots of concieve plus
Try to remember to temp
AND... I will not poas early!

Do the newbies want to add themselves to the list:

morecoffee ttc#3 testing 1st June
Hai1988 ttc#2 testing 4th june
alkar ttc#2 testing mid June
Tedmndo TTc #3 testing 6th June

redstrawberry · 08/05/2012 10:16

Hi can I join too? I am on Cycle 1, CD13. AF due end of May but DH wants to wait a week (he's insane!) post AF due. In which case I will be testing 1st June. Not sure how I will survive for that long!

Expecting ovulation to happen this week. DTD every other day, loaded up on folic and trying to eat healthy.

I am trying not to build up hopes as its just our first month, but keeping my fingers & toes crossed under the table

morecoffeemorecoffee · 08/05/2012 11:08

OP posts:
redstrawberry · 08/05/2012 11:15

Nope - ttc #1. hoping to have one next year :)

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 08/05/2012 11:30

Hello Ted and morecoffee

Plan this month is

  1. opks (rubbish at temping as dd (only child) is not a great sleeper.
  2. as much dtd as poss (dd sleep allowing)
  3. take vits

Not sure when testing as cycle not settled down post bf.

Pinkie29 · 08/05/2012 11:34

I'm going for it this month, just ordered some Vitex to try help regulate and shorten my cycle also starting epo for increased cm, raging af atm so no dtd until at least sat then will continue with at least 3 times a week and everyday around ov also got conceive plus and instead cups, need ov sticks as cant predict ov due to stoooopid long cycle!

Rarely drink so no need to cut out there already eat very good diet no fried foods or takeaways lots of fresh fruit and veg could do with upping the exercise!

That all sounds a lot more intense than it is Grin oh and dp getting his swimmers checked as my scan showed no signs of cysts thankfully

morecoffeemorecoffee · 08/05/2012 11:43

Hi pinkie I have unpredictable long cycles too. I've got a stash of cheap opks (about 60 sticks I think) to get me through this cycle! What is vitex?

New list, have amended my testing date-

redstrawberry ttc#1 testing 1st June
morecoffee ttc#3 testing 3rd June
Hai1988 ttc#2 testing 4th june
alkar ttc#2 testing mid June
