I guess it's time to start a January bus for all of us who had to get off the December, November (Oct, Sep, Aug) bus.

New Year, new beginning and hopefully start 2013 off with a bang, and a load of new bfp's!

weechops cycle 7 BFp due Jan 8

Who's with me?

Hi clare its' not very high res to I can't tell very easily, I think I can see a second line but it's so pixalated when I zoom I can't be sure. I had one like that this month which I am sure was their but which I could only see as I was looking for it. Keep testing each morning and it should get darker, mine didn't I just had a very very faint line of 3 tests I had a CP I think Sad

I have a question, which I hoped someone could help me with? I think I mentioned that I went to the docs yesterday for my bloods results, he said everything was normal, including my progesterone levels...phew. He sees no reason why I shouldn't conceive fairly easily, he suggested using OPKs as I have slightly irregular periods normally somewhere better 26-29 days, which I started using last month. I usually have very light periods though, usually 2 - 4 days, with (sorry for TMI) very few clots, I think they seem light to me as I am used the heavy withdrawal bleeds you get when on the pill. Do any of you ladies know if light periods can be a negative sign?

Disclaimer: This is just anecdotal evidence from one woman's experience.

I had very light period. I used the mini and regular tampoms, and the regular only for day 2. By day 4 I usually get so dry I can't use tampons anymore, just very thin pads. (My period is now much heavier after giving birth). I conceived DD in about 3-4 months after stopping contraception,, and was still in the lets see what will happen phase.

OneLittleToddlingTerror · 10/01/2013 10:17

clare the picture is very pixelated on my phone so I can't see it. Sorry.

jemimahpuddleduck · 10/01/2013 10:19

De-lurks for a second ... (like to keep up with you all)

Cleo just wanted to reassure you that my periods were also incredibly light compared to when I was on the pill so don't worry you're not broken.

Fx for everyone Smile

Thanks OLTT and jemima

clare8allthepies · 10/01/2013 10:31

Yeah I just had a look at pic on my phone and can't see anything! Blush DP has come home and confirmed the line though Grin Will do another tomorrow and hopefully get a clearer result!

OneLittleToddlingTerror · 10/01/2013 10:33

That's good news clare. At least you know the line isn't imaginary!

Readytosettle · 10/01/2013 10:43

Yay Claire I was beginning to get a bit dispondant with the lack of BFP's so this looks really promising! Let's hope tomorrow brings a nice bright line :-)

chocoloulou33 · 10/01/2013 11:03

claire Couldn't see a clear pic either but soo excited that u might have a bfp, make sure u do another test in morning :) x

chewingguminmyhair · 10/01/2013 11:13

Yay Clare!

littlepinkfizz · 10/01/2013 12:25

I can see a line but v v faint! But it's a line! X

padster75 · 10/01/2013 12:57

claire that's sounding good. FX it is the start of a sun of BFP's for us all.

Have banging headache today, still no AF, still in limboland

clare8allthepies · 10/01/2013 12:58

Congratulations!
I guess you'll be doing it again tomorrow, just like me - this pregnancy test malarkey must be like a licence to print money! Grin

chocoloulou33 · 10/01/2013 13:08

pinkfizz ru talking about a line on a test u have done or u looking at claire's pic? Sorry just don't wanna get it wrong lol.
padster what cd u on now? When u gonna test again? X

OneLittleToddlingTerror · 10/01/2013 13:11

I'm confused with what pinkfizz is saying too. I'm hoping she's seeing a line on her own stick.

OneLittleToddlingTerror · 10/01/2013 13:13

clare I'm getting 20 for £3.55 on ebay. I reckon that's what I paid for boots cheapie 2-packs. Even if I only needed one, I didn't lose any money. I'm going to freecycle away all my left overs opks and pregnancy tests if I get a bfp this cycle. Otherwise, they are still here for me next month Sad.

padster75 · 10/01/2013 13:25

choc I am CD32. Will test with FMU, if I remember. You know what I am like, don't function until I have that first cup of tea inside me.

I have my stash of fleabay cheapies, pissing without conscience means you can poas a lot (when you remember).

chocoloulou33 · 10/01/2013 13:43

Make sure u remember padster :)

OneLittleToddlingTerror · 10/01/2013 13:55

Well I have just started spotting, maybe AF will arrive tomorrow, 6 days late. Sad

legallyblond · 10/01/2013 14:50

Hello! I'm arriving rather late, but.... Had unplanned unprotected sex (with DH - no exciting drama I'm afraid!) on what I'm pretty sure was ovulation day and, well, you know.... Actually quite excited now!

We have a 2.3 yo DD so gap would be 3 years exactly - much smaller gap than we had planned (we were thinking 4/5 years), but....

I had been busily telling all I felt no urge or rush for no 2, or even if we wanted another, but now I might be, it's another story!

Got preg with DD first month of trying, so it is possible...

Eek! I now remember the 2 week wait (was on MN back then, so here I go again!)

Good luck all who are testing!

Bajas · 10/01/2013 16:16

choc only 1 day late for a 'normal cycle' but mine can be as short as 21 days so feels like it's really late. If still no af on Sunday I'll try again...

Congratulations to those who got bfps! It's lovely to hear good news Grin

chocoloulou33 · 10/01/2013 16:45

Hello legallyblond welcome to the bus! Hope u get your bfp!
Bajas rly hope ur late because your bfp is waiting just around the corner, fx for u!
one I rly hope its not your af hun :( surely not if u got a faint line this morning?? Sooo hoping its not, keep us posted x

Readytosettle · 10/01/2013 17:10

Hi ladies, need some help...been feeling really nauseous all day, only feels better immediately after I eat something then it comes back again. I think I'm 8 or 9 days dpo....is it a poss sign or way to early?

chewingguminmyhair · 10/01/2013 17:13

Legallyblond - how much DTD did you do the first month of trying? I would love to be preg for an October baby but have only DTD 4 x in run up to ovulation (+2 more times but DP didn't deliver Confused).

I'm on day 14 so maybe again tonight...

But also now in the 2ww!
