All ttc or expecting their BFPs welcome. Fingers crossed for a fantastically fertile February!

[MrsF2510]

For those who have jumped off the January bus. May need assistance for the wonderfully organised ladies who are so brilliant at keeping the stats up to date!

So to start the engine MrsF2510 ttc #1 cycle 2 BFP due 1st Feb x

Will also be cheering on from the sidelines for the poas party! I'm not due my AF until around 22 Feb, so a bit of a way to go yet for me.

What brand of OPK's do you all use? I bought forelife yesterday but then read the reviews when I got home and wish I hadn't bothered as it sounds rubbish. Took my temp for first time this morning, looking forward to getting some facts as last month made me realise I don't know my own cycle like I assumed I did.

And a happy birthday Kitty!

Happy Birthday Kitty!!!

11dpo!! Just got rid of my fmu...hope the rest of my poas partyers are doing the same!! (Ahem mama and broody)

I caved and POAS today and BFN! Totally didn't feel pregnant so not surprised. That's at 13dpo and with an internet cheapie. Boo!!

Aw sorry MrsF! I shouldn't have planted the poas seed!!

Your not out yet!!

Next week you can hassle me to poas haha

Ha ha toots, I don't think I can blame you as I was tempted!!! No I know I'm not out yet but I just don't feel pregnant so am not holding out too much hope.

Fmu and temptation flushed away treacle I quite often don't feel any ovulation symptoms but get my fixed smiley.. and then AF on time.. ovulation feels different every month for me. . .Don't give up hope on this cycle

My bloody temps!! One min I think they're settling then they go hay wire again. 5dpo and a drop from 36.44 to 36.28, which is making me wonder about my progesterone level. This cycle has really toyed with my emotions!

8dpo and spotting has started :( pretty steadily as well! No poas for me! Going to make an appointment to see the GP again to discuss my crazy short cycles and pre af spotting that's getting earlier and earlier every time!!!!

Cycle 9, wow! Never thought I'd be saying that!

oh Mama! So sorry to hear that. GP appointment sounds like a good idea.. even if it just puts your mind at ease. . At least now you can have a guilt free wine or 2 x

Mama31 sorry to read that. Is there any chance it might not be AF starting?

I'm fairly sure I won't be poas on Sunday either, woken up with my classic AF symptoms - cramps, pmt and very grumpy and emotional oh and bleeding gums - nice.
Fairly certain I'll be out in a few days. But will be cheering you all on on Sunday too!! :)

At least it's hump day today (Wednesday)

Oh mama..... I'm sorry. Hopefully a trip to the docs can shed some light on things for you. Sending hugs

I keep forgetting to temp in the morning. Walk to the loo half asleep then realise I have forgot. Managed it fine last cycle but not this time.

mama 8dpo could be implantation! Theres still hope!

I dont feel pregnant either. Af symptoms seem to have gone away too so I have no symptoms at all!

Ladies unfortunately this is pretty standard stuff for me spotting 4 days prior to af! Def not implantation, just af dragging in as per usual!

Oh well, prosecco for me this wkend.....alot of prosecco!!!!!!!!

Good luck to you all, I hope Feb brings lots of bfp's! I will be heading to the back of the bus to sulk as next af due very end of Feb!! Hate my cycles!!! And body!! And ttc!!!! Fed up!

Mama. Havent read all the thread, have you been temping as well?
Just wondering if your temp is low?
What did dr say about short lp?
As well as pcos i now have hypothyroidism and this can cause short lp.
Have you had bloods done already?

You're so allowed to be fed up and sulk mama but we will all be here all month ready for when you are feeling better xx

Hello everyone. Hope it's ok to join. Kicked off the January bus last night as AF arrived so feeling a bit glum. Off to hibernate At the back under some blankets.

Lovecuppy. TTC 1. Cycle 6. BFP due 25th February.

Hitting a bit of a depressed mood. Maybe it's the weather. Anyway, it's one of those days where you hear people getting pregnant straightaway, etc. and you just want to burst into tears but can't because you have to keep a happy face.

You are told to use protection, etc. but nobody ever tells you that getting knocked up can actually be difficult. Off to the docs on Monday to find out the results of my blood tests. I wad diagnosed with suspected PCOS previously (scans didn't show anything), but GP wanted to have fresh blood samples.

DH is also feeling the strain... today's lifestyle of constantly working is really not conducive in TTC.

Sorry... just needed to moan.

Hi all, just popping in to catch up on your news over lunch.

Mama - so sorry to hear spotting has started. Defo see your doctor about it, there must be a reason, and perhaps another test to work out why. I would also think reflexology is worth a try to try and sort that out for you too. Enjoy LOTS of prosecco over the weekend, you deserve it. Hugs to you.

Broodie, definitely don't deny yourself the treats - I really don't think glasses of wine and dairy milk bars will stop you getting pregnant, enjoy it while you can!

Spinning - 2ww week. Eeek. Fx for you, and glad you got 3 dtd sessions in at the right time

Barmy - glad you had reflexology, wow blue hair hey!! Hope your next one goes ok. Did it hurt round the ankles? Mine absolutely killed there. And make sure you drink plenty of water after. I think they free up stuff so you need to flush it out.

To all the rest of you obsessing over symptoms during ov and dpo. I had none. I still have no symptoms apart from a bloated belly. No sore boobs, no sickness, no tiredness...nothing. So don't worry, no symptoms doesn't mean you're out. Also with regards to ov, most months i had a clear ov pain, this month i fell pg i don't remember much. I also didn't get much ewcm (i never did which is why i drank the venos) so you never know ladies! FX for you all.

sazzle what a lovely positive post Thank you trying to obsess less and relax and if this month isn't for me then next will be..

Thank you Sazzle. That I think will lift alot of people's spirits.

"DH is also feeling the strain... today's lifestyle of constantly working is really not conducive in TTC".

I totally get where you are coming from on this Snowbells - I said this to DH last week.

Thanks sazzle! I've emailed a clinic to try and get a reflexology session for next wkend. DH is making GP appointment when he checks his work shifts for a swimmers check and I'm going back to the GP to discuss further tests! Feeling quite glum but have nice plans this wkend and next so I'm just going to pick myself up and have lots of fun and drinks!!

I don't temp, but this is def usual pre af spotting, it's always the same! 8 cycles in and it never changes! The day I don't spot will be the day I get my bfp! I'm sure!

Some people have had success with b vitamins

Hi Sazzle....good to see you

Mama.....I'm really sorry spotting has started definitely lots of prosecco at weekend! Reflexology sounds like a good idea for you, it really could help with your cycles. Think docs is also a good step. Keeping fx as always that you get your well deserved bfp soon xxx
