Hi Nottalotta Thought i'd hop onto your bus quickly to say hello and that it did make me chuckle that you were on the wrong bus! Smile Technically i am too as af bfp (think positive!) is due on the 30th if my cycle is 23 days (which is was last month) but I've gone for the longest it has been which is 26 days hence me being on the September bus. How are you getting along? We managed to dtd twice at the begininning of the week and last night was 'the' night as according to app i'm supposed to ovulate today but the deed did not get done and i am now feeling thoroughly fed up as feel we may have missed our chance this month. Really not liking what ttc does to your sex life..the pressure is immense..but then if we just say lets just do it when we feel like it that is usually a weekend morning thing (not that we're the creatures of habit!) and we are never going to coincide with ov. Sorry this has turned into a moan - it was meant to be a cheery hello! Hope you're doing better than me! I'm off to pull my socks up and give myself a stern talking to...Wink

Congrats Purple!

Thanks Blue, sorry you've had bad news. I'm feeling better now, just frustrated waking up to another low temperature I think when I was so sure it would have gone up. Will have to keep dtd with intent ... lucky DH!!

VJONES - could be a pregnancy sign ... but I wouldn't encourage such naughty symptom spotting obviously Wink

Congratulations to all the bfps! Today is day 25 for me which is the day that af appeared last cycle but as of yet no sign, determined I'm gonna wait till day 29 before testing as longest cycle I've had since coming off the pill was 29. According to my chart day 29 is also 14 days after I ovulated. Good luck to everyone else still awaiting bfp

Ahh Onelife I know the feeling wanting to dtd before you think time is up... Of course DH chose fertile week to contract a nasty UTI (nothing to do with me, obvs!) so no deeds have been done at all HmmHmmHmm
Forgotten whose mum it was that ha an accident but I hope the op goes well and that she can get in to visit your the other family member soon enough :(

I know leezl it's hard not to think they do these things on purpose! Think i'm feeling the pressure all the more this month as I know for sure DH is away with work for my entire fertile week next month (tsk) and the thought of waiting TWO months to try again is just too much. I'll have to take up a hobby...Smile

OrangeMochaFrappucino · 16/08/2013 15:16

Thanks everyone and congratulations to the other BFPs. mrswalsh I think it's still too early for many symptoms, just been extra-irritable and a bit tired in the afternoon. Also extra-greedy. Have had two big slices of cake today.

Hope you catch the smiley other jelly!

Cheesy I am in pretty much the same boat as you. CD21 today with no idea whether I've ovulated after miscarriage. Random EWCM appearances which never seem enough to convince myself I've actually ovulated.
Annoying as I'm normally very regular and can work out what's going on.
Me and DH decided not to try any more this month. DTD a fair bit around usual O time until about 6 days after I usually O, but we were getting to the point where it was taking the enjoyment out of it, so instead we're going to hope that we've done enough this month, and if we haven't we'll have a better idea for next month about timings.

ImaginaryHat · 16/08/2013 17:14

Congrats purple! Flowers

Sorry some of you are having a bit of a hard time. impatiently I think you're totally doing the right thing stopping for this month if it's zapping the enjoyment, probably better for your chances in the long run as you won't be fed up next month. And you never know you might have done it this month anyway with what you've done so far!

My opk line was a lot darker today, just marginally lighter than the control line so I think its safe to say I'll get my positive opk tomorrow. Put off dtd through tiredness last night so need to get on it tonight!

VJONES1985 · 16/08/2013 17:20

Good idea, impatiently. What a shame lots of us are having a tough time at the moment. Still, It's only the 16th of the month so plenty of time yet.

Congratulations to all bfp's. I am 3 days late no af and no bfp. I am never late so a bit concerned. About a week ago I had quite a few symptoms, but no real symptoms now, but could have imagined it all. Now worried, is there still hope? Do you think I had a chemical pregancy?
Thank you ladies

Thanks for all of your kind words, DM in plaster and waiting for operation n her ankle next week...in the meantime AF has finally decided to arrive this evening so I have enjoyed a nice glass of wine! Tbh am just glad to know what's going on...think my stressful and overtired week plus DS being ill and possibly upping his milk intake must've delayed it all...though that still doesn't explain the excruciating pain I was in with cramps n Monday but hey ho...off to the September bus I go! Toodleoo and good luck to you all!

Hi, I flew the bus too early I think

(Tmi alert)
Had a tiny bit of brown cm day before af was due, thought here we go...then day af was due squeezed in a last minute dtd session and this seemed to bring on enough blood for me to be convinced af was here. But after cleaning up, no more came and since then- nothing.

I'm still not feeling hopeful and I'm sure it's all just a precursor to af but never had this before, and guess I'm technically late now by a day or two.

Haven't really had af pains, but again with the tmi, got woken up with wind pains that were so bad 2nights ago, like trapped wind but most certainly not trapped. Haven't really stopped since...stupid pill, feels like my system is all wrong.

Anyone else experienced anything like this? I've had 1 real af which came 28 days after breakthrough bleed and both times ov'd around day 14/15.

I'm sorry I'm a bit excitable - it's my first time TTC so I'm sure by a few cycles down the line I'll be more "meh" lol! Eee.
