@babyjames. I hope u don't think I meant u were bringing the thread down. I meant we didn't have much good news this aft, especially after such a good run.

I know its a ttc thread, but life gets in the way of that sometimes n shitty stuff happens. We're all here 4 each other. X

Oh nuts. Knew I should've applied 4 The trial. High st vouchers lost. Gutted.

Yeah kitty, I'm still hoping that it'll just happen n The cold sore's a sign. Or it could just b a sign that iv got a cold. Either way, Friday nite is wine nite!

winkle2 · 06/07/2012 22:13

Ribs if I did OV later I'll be bloody annoyed at the monitor for getting it wrong!

Dexidoo · 07/07/2012 06:19

I held off testing and the witch finally got me yesterday. :(

I knew realistically that a BFP would be unlikely but it still has send my scuttling into the cave with wine, posh crisps and maltesers.

I think I'm probably out for July but will pop in and out and wait for someone optimistic than me to start an August thread.

Good luck to the remaining testers x

OpenMindedSceptic · 07/07/2012 08:23

dexi so sorry to hear that the old witch go you.

SunshineOutdoors · 07/07/2012 08:26

Hi babyjames sorry to hear your news, but as others have said, it's very positive that it's been caught early on a routine smear. My dsis had similar and one procedure (I think lasering) and no issues since. I hope it's the same for yours.

Sorry about the bfn winkle, shitty isn't it?

dexi I'm sorry af got you - there's plenty of room in the cave!

Well it's cd43 here and I just want af to come now (never thought I'd say that)

SunshineOutdoors · 07/07/2012 08:31

I'll be on the August thread but no clue when I'll get to test yet.

Has anyone had experience of this after stopping bf? This is my first proper cycle since before I got pregnant with dd... I only stopped bfing because I wanted to get pg again and bigger gaps between feeds and dropping feeds wasn't bringing my period back. It took a month after I'd completely stopped before af came and that was 6 weeks ago now. Is there a chance I'm not even ovulating yet?

Me and dh wanted to get pg again at the start of the year and now we're over half way through I just want to have a shot at it.

randomswitch · 07/07/2012 08:31

Omg bfp!

It is a very unambiguous positive! I had actually decided to quit trying if nothing happened this month as I am cruising to 40, have pcos so can never tell when I am ovulating and just couldn't take it anymore. Pls wish me luck for things to be okay from here, ladies.
Sorry things didn't work out for you dexidoo but keep strong (and shagging!) for next month!

SunshineOutdoors · 07/07/2012 08:34

winkle I'm sorry if that sounded flippant. You're so good on this thread I'm sorry if it's not your month, I really wanted it for you. It will be fantastic if the bfn's wrong, but if not please don't give up and lose heart. I'm starting to look forward to cd1 again

NicolaHazel · 07/07/2012 08:36

Congrats random! Isn't it strange - and fantastic - how these things happen at the right time? :-)

backwardpossom · 07/07/2012 08:50

Congrats random! :)

Jenjen85 · 07/07/2012 08:59

Af arrived bright an early for me this morning :-( hoping to have a BFP in August tho!

Fx to all of you ladies on here who are yet to test!!

SunshineOutdoors · 07/07/2012 09:15

Congratulations random! excellent to have another bfp!

Well... af has just arrived for me! Hooray! cd1..... 42 day cycle!

SunshineOutdoors · 07/07/2012 09:16

Sorry jenjen. August will be our month I'm sure!

RIBS · 07/07/2012 09:30

Hurrah random Get in. Pcos and BFP! Well done. Massive congrats to you. I know the pain of having no idea when/if your going to ovulate. Keeping everything crossed its a sticky one.

Sunshine Yey!! AF arrived. At least it came sooner rather than hanging on til later. I dont think thats all that bad for your first cycle. Get some EPO in you. It seems to shorten your cycle.

Sorry af got you dexi. Have some wine tonight girl! Or this aft if you feel naughty!! Grin

I (think) I ov'd Tues, +ive opk on Monday and ov pain stopped Tues. But ive still got ewcm - its never gone! Do you reckon its the epo, or has my egg not actually gone yet. I wouldnt normally ov until today? I am full of snot due to cold, do you think the mucas just circulates? (gross I know) They do say that if you use decongestants it dries up cm too!!

RIBS · 07/07/2012 09:31

Sorry your out for this month too jenjen I missed your post.

kittykatsforever · 07/07/2012 09:37

Congrats random, I know it's said before but the bfp definatly come when you give up trying and obviously stop stressing .... However when you really want a dc how can you tell your body, in fine no stress!!
Sunshine- glad in the nicest possible way ad has come at last, things should start getting better now, I too had to stop bf to start it off as I had cut down over 2 months even to one feed aday for 3 wks and still nothing! Maybe try the epo this month and see if it can shorten it up for you?
Are you going for all that dtd again this month or a different approach?

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 07/07/2012 09:39

random big congratulations to you, how you have a happy uneventful pregnancy.

baby oh your sister is so young, it foes sound like they caught it early for her.

sunshine I also had to quit bf dd at 13 months to get my period back Sad I cut down to one feed at 4pm but I still didn't get my cycle back. We are in exactly the same boat wanted to start trying in Jan but period just refused to return.

jenjen sorry AC arrived have a feeling I will be on the August thread with you. Fx for then.

randomswitch · 07/07/2012 09:46

Thanks everyone for you congrats, it means a lot!

Your turn next ladies!

RIBS · 07/07/2012 09:51

How many of us are there left? Nearly everyone is right at the beginning of the month?

kittykatsforever · 07/07/2012 09:58

Me and red still to go, can't remember everyone but sure there's a couple more aswell

RIBS · 07/07/2012 10:04
NicolaHazel · 07/07/2012 10:09

Me!! I changed my date to 19th though as my maths failed me. :-)

SunshineOutdoors · 07/07/2012 10:13

Hi, yes I'm going to go for the more is more approach... If I oved 14 days ago I'd actually stopped doing it as much by then... had a gap of about 4 days exactly around that time. I thought I had af like cramps 5/6 dpo but maybe it was ov pains? I'm learning a lot!

Tell me more about epo? Where do I get it?

RIBS · 07/07/2012 10:25
