So sorry mama Hmm must say, with your short cycles though at least you get to start quicker so that's a plus (trying hard to convince you!)
Has the b6 helped your cycles? What do you take?

Jaykay have you told your dh?

Going to start ov testing tomorrow (cd8), can't believe it's that time again already!

Oh mama I'm so sorry for you. Your wonderful enthusiasm on here with organising the poas party has been a joy to read after my 11 months of nothing. Youve kept me positive and happy. I'm so pleased to be on this bus. I hope you get your bfp very soon, you deserve it. Hugs x

Thanks choccy! Was taking 25mg up to ovulation then 50mg after ovulation. Seemed to work last month as had 26 day cycle instead of 23 and ovulated cd13 rather than cd10. Spotting was also slightly less last cycle.

Seem to be back to square one with probably a 23 day cycle as this spotting today will drag on for 3 or 4 days until full flow tue or wed. The spotting is the worst wish I knew how to stop it!!!!

Thankyou Sazzle I really appreciate that.....good luck to you I really wish you all the best.

I probs need to just zone out for a while...until I'm feeling positive again...good luck everyone!!! I continue to pray for you all.

Firstly, Cotton im really sorry, I hope you're doing OK. Fx it's not proper af.

Congratulations jaykay!! Really chuffed for you! Run down of dates and symptoms from you and Mrsb please!

Mama really sorry your spottings arrived, not done opks this month so no idea if/when I've ovulated but I'm also feeling very pre-af today too. Hmm, well see.

Wow lots of catching up and I last checked at midnight!

Jaykay my cd digi came up 2-3 weeks like Gilly, so she's probably right about your hcg levels still being low because of later implantation. CONGRATULATIONS, made up for you - when would the due date be? I.e can you be on the June ante-natal with me & gilly?

MrsB what a lovely line - congrats, can you join the June ante-natal thread too?

I'm so sorry cotton love to you.

Mama it's not over yet, that could be an implantation bleed? I'm keeping everything crossed for you not being out. X

Thanks for the messages ladies.
Yay mrs b - so you're off to start a July thread withJessie are you?!Smile Im of sure whether to join you or go join the June thread...but I'll be so far behind them.

So sorry mama and English. And anyone else who AF got. FX next cycle will be lucky for you.

I'll do my details....let me go draft it. Let me warn you...it'll be a long one. But hopefully it'll help someone!

No - not told DH yet. He's been away since Friday morning. Not back until late Tuesday night. Im going to burst! He just called...and if felt very odd keeping it a secret. But I want to see his face.
I was going to give him my CB digi (if Im still pregnant Tuesday) but not sure how long the battery will last I presume it's only a day or two.

Have you tried 50 then 100 mama? That's what I've read works pretty well, this is my firet month on it and I'm going with that for now. I'm just worried about delayed ov as it's on cd16 as it is!

Congratulations everyone! The October bus wasn't lucky for me :-( Have chucked out my opks and even considering leaving this place for a while... you're all so wonderful and supportive but I just feel envious of everyone with a bfp!!! I'm about to start cycle 4 and need to not get too excited!

VJONES1985 · 20/10/2013 10:41

mama - Hope you have better luck with b6 than me. I was on 100mg daily for two cycles and it had absolutely no effect so I'm not bothering any more.

Can you tell how fed up I am? Ha ha ;)

Morning VJ - I'm sorry you are feeling a bit low and fed. I think that as far as human emotions go, envy is one of the hardest ones to cope with. It is so hard to be genuinely happy for people when they have the one thing that you want so desperately too. We would all understand if you felt you had to leave, sometimes a break is needed just to collect your thoughts and see things with a fresh perspective. We would miss you though and would be looking for ward to your return Smile I think you have made the right decision about stopping the B6, let your body regulate itself at its own pace. You'll get your BFP one day VJ and I hope it is sooner rather than later x x

I will join you on the June thread, even though all the online calculators say my date is 1st July!

Ok all the details, I apologise for the tmi for some things lol

My first month of using opks, used the cb advanced digi ones with the faces.
CD 8, 9, 10 - empty faces
CD 11, 12, 13 - flashing face
CD 14, 15 - fixed face

So I either ovulated late on CD 14 or possibly CD 15

We dtd on CD 5, 6, 12, 13, 14, and 16. Would of carried on after but DH was ill!!

I didn't really have many symptoms but I had a feeling it worked this month! The only things I had were:

CD 16 - Pains on the left side which only lasted a couple of hours
CD 19 - Achy tummy and pooped 4 times in one day!
CD 20 - Achy tummy and heartburn which I never ever get! The heartburn was the first thing that made me think maybe I am pg
CD 21 - Heartburn
CD 22 - Woke up with a headache
CD24 - Very very faint line on an IC and also used a cheap opk, and 2 strong lines were on that, this was in the evening
CD 25 - Pooped twice in one day, and felt like a months worth of poop came out lol Very faint line on an IC. Felt really hot, had a nap in bed, when DH came up to see if I was awake, he thought I'd put the heating on as it was so hot in the room!
CD26 - Faint line on IC in morning then a line on a Superdug test in evening
CD 27 - Definite line on a FRER!

The only things we did differently this time was, I used the trying to conceive vitamins, and DH had the Wellman vits instead of his usual multi vits. I used opks for the first time. We have been using Conceive plus lube since we started, so maybe that helped as I didn't notice any ewcm at all. I've also had a couple of wines during the 2ww. Think I was more relaxed and expecting it to take up to a year. But, I said at the start of the month I felt this was a lucky bus, so maybe I just knew it would happen?

Sorry for the mega long post!!

VJONES1985 · 20/10/2013 10:51

Cheers, writer. And you know what, I highly doubt I would leave because I do love talking to you guys and sticking my nose into everyone's business ;)

Am trying to cling to positives and the one I've got this month is the strong pms symptoms I had for the first time (sore boobs, tearfulness, loads of spots) and I'm seeing that as a good thing because I guess it means my hormones are doing what they should be now

JayKay what Lucy said, 24 hours. Which is really annoying! They should last forever.
