Thanks possom, fx indeed!
Ok pooley, it's a deal. Which day are we going to go for? Which day do you think is a luckier day - Tues or Weds? Wink

CherryBakewellPie · 08/07/2012 12:13

Hey all :) lovely to see a more upbeat thread! Still no AF from me...Starting to think that my cycle is longer than I previously thought! If my calculations are correct i'll be due on tomorrow now, a wretched 34 day cycle =/ but i'm going to hold off testing until tues/weds as well! Is that three of us? I'll let you choose which is the luckier day :D

winkle2 · 08/07/2012 12:26

Hey girls

Cd30 and still no AF and a BFN this morning. So bloody annoying! My cycles have been from 27-35 days since I started tracking them last August. My app says I'm due in 4 days and my cycles are an average of 33 days.

I had that freaky long luteul phase back in may - 19 days from smiley to AF so maybe it's happening again? Aarrggghh

I will be joining in on virtual wedding! Very exciting!

Yikes a faint line sounds promising! This is def a lucky thread!

Day 3 here and I have emerged from the cave spritely and smiling :)

Mood helped by a good gym session followed by a lovely filter coffee ok 3 but they were small ones

The witch has almost buggered off and I am thinking the 3 times a week shag plan should start imminently to avoid DH feeling used for the vital part of the month.

Lovely sunny Sunday here, getting the BBQ out later Grin

babyjames · 08/07/2012 13:41

winkle my cycles are averaging at 33 days too. Annoying they are so long don't you think. Just checked out FF and it says I should next ovulate on our 4th wedding anniversary!
Nice to hear some wedding news on here :)

winkle2 · 08/07/2012 13:49

Babyjames - my cycles are never the same which is sooooo annoying!

winkle2 · 08/07/2012 13:54

Welcome back from the cave dex :)

CherryBakewellPie · 08/07/2012 15:41

Urgh stuck at work! Can't think of anything else and over analysing every twinge in my stomach! I think I have ache but I can't be sure because every time I stop to really concentrate on it I can't work out if it's in my head! It's really faint or maybe I'm just completely losing the plot?! Really dont want AF to turn up in the morning :( PLUS everyone is watching wimbledon without me! Grumble grumble! Hope your all having a good day :)

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 08/07/2012 16:22

yikes faint line sounds good. Best of luck for the next test.

dexi glad to hear you sounding so perky

cherry work sucks, I swear my symptom spotting and general obsessing is much worse at work (obviously I need to work harder).

winkle I kind of hope af arrives soon or you get better news.

lollypopsicle · 08/07/2012 16:36

OMG just POAS- Internet cheapie and got a VFP!!! ( very faint pos) but it came up straight away and is definitely there. DP concurs but says it is not conclusive given its faintness.
I'm trying not to get excited yet. It's 11dpo. Usually get spotting 12dpo to start off AF so will wait a day and test again. Eeeek!

winkle2 · 08/07/2012 17:06

Omg Lolly! Sounds good!

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 08/07/2012 17:12

Lolly 11 DPO and you tested with non fmu. A faint line is amazing at 11days. Will save my congrats till tomorrow morning when I predict a BFP for you.

SunshineOutdoors · 08/07/2012 17:18

Congrats lolly, it sounds good to me! Let us know if the line gets darker when you next test.

AussieMummyTo1 · 08/07/2012 17:39

Hi everyone,

I have been lurking since last AF, did also watch the June thread but had a feeling it wasnt going to happen (it didnt !) so didnt post, too depressing !! Was on the tailend of May thread & recognises some names, so feel a little familar. We have been trying since January & with all the luck on this thread it has made me very optimistic that this is the month & that this thread is gonna help it be extra lucky !! :o

Im not down with all the lingo but think ive semi guessed most of it, for ages i though EOD was end of day & assumed everyone was DTD everynight !!

I just got a positive on OV test, which is CD18 (does that mean calender days since AF started ?) DTD CD13 & CD16 & plan to be "at it" tonight followed by some winkling & next 3 days, so thats my schedule for DP, which ill let him know when he gets back this evening :)

My cycles are usually 35 days long (horribly to long) but better then when I had DD, they were 39 then !!

So from tomorrow ill be counting myself as 1DPO, & hope to be able to wait to test on the 22nd July but more then likely will cave & test in about 10 days time so about the 18th July. I had a very dark line with DD on day 10, so hoping the same will happen !! As got my BFP for DD in July 2010 so feel this is going to be my month !!

I will try not to symptom spot as I didnt have any pregnancy symptoms with DD during entire pregnancy, (12 week scan was a relief as i didnt feel at all different & hadnt gained a pound)

Congratulations to all thoses with BFP's already, your my inspiration that July is the month for me & all of us on this thread. Cant wait to hear more BFP's news.

PS Congrats Wishful on the wedding, you sound so excited !! Its infectious, i feel sooo excited for you ! Whats your dress like ??

Mersea · 08/07/2012 17:42

Afternoon Ladies
The wedding prep sounds like great fun wishful
fingers crossed for you whenshewas, yikes and lolly
Welcome pooley
Just found out I can't test too early and be sure of a true result, turns out the HCG injection can still be in my system for up to 20 days after and could show a false positive. The only way to be sure is to have 2 blood tests a few days apart to see if the HCG levels increase. Confused

CherryBakewellPie · 08/07/2012 17:47

Aw congratulations lolly!! That's amazing :) so happy for you!! Can't wait until you POAS in the morning (is that a bit creepy?!) haha only because I'm excited for your BFP!

Welcome Aussie Grin

MissPMA · 08/07/2012 17:59

Hi everyone, I have been lurking on this thread for a while so thought I should say hello and congrats to everyone who has had BFPs! I am 30 and came off the pill 4 months ago, had the withdrawal blead but no sign of AF since then, several times I've thought it was coming but it still hasn't, have done numerous tests in the hope that I may be preggers bu no luck so far.... I went to the dr who told me to be "patient" and that it could take a year for my AF to come back which was quite frustrating as I really am not patient! anyone else taken so long to get back to normal after the pill?

resipsa · 08/07/2012 19:32

Yet more BFPs! Congrats to all. Welcome to new faces too. Hope the luck continues this week; I'm 7 (or so) DPO so it's crunch week. With DD, had no idea until 5.5 weeks. With 2nd pregnancy (m/c), I got "the feeling" at 4.5 weeks. This month, not a symptom in sight so think I'll be on the Aug thread too

winkle2 · 08/07/2012 19:33

Welcome to the thread Aussie and missPMA!

wishfulthinking1 · 08/07/2012 19:35

A year misspma? Crikey! Iirc mine went back to normally straight away doesn't really help you, sorry! I'd perhaps give it 1 more month and then go back to a different doctor. There must be something they can do! Adding a year on to ttc would be rubbish! Fx she arrives soon!

What? You want to hear about my dress? Well.. Okay.. Girls- I don't like to brag, but it is so lovely! I'm not a very girly, girl, I'm incredibly self- conscious and can be really down on my appearance. I generally think I'm a complete munter, but really I'm pretty average. My point isn't so you feel sorry for me- just that you understand that I really don't ever leave the house thinking, 'woah, you look pretty good today' but my dress MY WEDDING DRESS is just so lovely and it makes me look amazing- and I never feel like that. Im never going to want to take it off. It's a halterneck with pretty beady bits at the top, then the skirt is quite full and lacey. Its not a great description I know- but it's so lovely. Can't wait till DF sees me- think his eyes will fall out of sockets, and can't wait till my dad sees me in the dress- its just going to be an amazing day!!

And as I'll be on 2ww I can still have champagne without worrying about anything!

Congrats on the BFP lolly- am sure line will be darker in the morning. As ever, please try to pee early so I know before I go to work!

Didn't manage to dtd this morning- didn't have the heart to wake him up- so, it's going to have to wait until cd9- think that's ok though as cm is still a bit brown from AF and sticky not like ewcm. tmi?

wishfulthinking1 · 08/07/2012 19:36

Hugs to you respisa- I should be having 12 wk scan this week- it sucks- try to keep your chin up x

Pooley42 · 08/07/2012 19:36

yikes Not sure I can what past tuesday ;) (although wednesday would be more sensible!)

Good luck to all. xx

iamstitch · 08/07/2012 19:43

Argh!!! Argh!!!! I just got my BFP!!!! This thread is soooo lucky!!! GrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrin

NicolaHazel · 08/07/2012 19:47

Wow! More BFPs...Congrats all :-)

And hello new people!

Oh, and I think a year is a long time to take post-pill. Any idea if you have a more clued up GP at your surgery re gynae matters? Back home there was one particular GP who is awesome (a bloke, maybe oddly) at these things and the one you try to get in to see with such things.

redstrawberry · 08/07/2012 19:53

wishful you are going to be a stunning bride :) dress sounds lovely! I hope you have a fantastic wedding!

Recovering from the flu and caught up with the posts...so sorry about the bfn winkle still a sliver of hope as AF hasn't shown up!

Hi misspma and aussie

Congratulations lolly! Hope it's a dark line when you next test.

Shagathon has continued inspite of the flu and so far we've dtd cd7,9,11,12 and 13. I think I OVed this weekend but haven't seen any ewcm...is that because of all the sex? Last month I had copious lots of CM! This month just nothing again :(
