Hi! I'm feeling lucky this month after dtd lots and at the right time! I'm 33 and been ttc #1 since Dec 2012! I need some news!

Hi Victoria my bfp is due on the 26th too! This is my first time Ttc but am feeling positive as we dtd lots over my fertile period. A day seems to take forever I don't know how I am going to wait till 26th!!!!

Hazelbrowneyes · 14/02/2014 15:02

Hi! I'll join but I'm not entirely sure exactly what date I'm due!

On a 28 day cycle it'd be 25th Feb but I'm fairly sure I didn't ovulate on CD14. I think I might be ovulating today (thanks to stomach cramps intensifying as the day goes on) which would put me as due on 28th but I could be wrong Grin

So, yes...I'm due around that time, hopefully. Grin

Fingers crossed for both of you!

Hi, good luck to you all! I am going to test on Feb 22nd. I know, every day seems to last so long! xx

I've had an odd month ovulation wise, I usually get the side pains CD13/14 but this month was CD12 (dtd day10 +12). Had reflexology session concentrating on reproductive bits CD 13. Had more side pains and EWCM on CD14 too so seduced DH again! Reflexologist also pulled the "family" Angel card for me at the session. Who knows, might not be mumbo jumbo, hope its a good sign!

Oh also I'm a 27-30 day person so could be 25th-28th Feb. I hate the 30day months tho as you kinda start wondering... What if.....? Thanks for joining me ladies. Please post with your progress and any signs!

Hello claud!

Bearsandtoys · 14/02/2014 19:14

I'm due on the 21st but can I chat to you all anyway! last month I testsed far too early so I got DH to hide all the pg tests. I can't control myself!

victoria401 · 14/02/2014 19:19

I've never done any tests, I wouldn't unless late. I do enough date and symptom counting, couldn't cope with something else to obsess about! I'd go even more insane!

OP posts:
Bearsandtoys · 14/02/2014 19:31

I did go insane. And I think I had a chemical pregnancy because I had a faint line but then came on my period :(

This time I'm being chilled :)

victoria401 · 14/02/2014 19:42

Is chilled possible? People keep saying if you're stressed it won't happen. But I can't stop the way I feel! No deep breathing is going to stop me thinking about it or feeling anxious. I've been on a "mood management" course and had reflexology, I'm just a stressy person. "if you relax and stop thinking about it, it will happen". How???

RhiBee29 · 14/02/2014 20:28

Can I tag along? Bfp due 24th I think, had +opk cd16 and usually have a 30day cycle although last month was 26. Following SMEP this month and its our "one forluck" tonight, good timing with it being Valentines!

5dpo and feel perfectly normal. First month I've tried cutting down on booze, not had a drop for 6 days (long for me!). Hubby asked how I was getting on "quitting" as I love my almost daily small glass of wine :-). I said great, not even craving it! He was hoping being "off booze" was a 'sign' I was preg. Bless him, I love him so much :-) x x x

Ok not feeling normal any more! Just had ewcm and have side stitch! This is not normal for me as I'm on cd18 and I've already had all this at cd13/14! What's going on?!

OP posts:
PotentiallyLethalMarshmallow · 16/02/2014 13:52

Hello, all. Victoria, my af is also due 25-28 Feb. I, too, had side stitch pain cd 14/15 and now it is back!

victoria401 · 16/02/2014 16:14

Im now getting all sorts of cramps, central too! Its slightly early for implantation though yes? That's 6-11 dpo and I'm prob 5dpo. Unless I ovd cd13 then I would be 6days.... I can't get too hopeful tho!

OP posts:
EmilyPinkOrBlue · 16/02/2014 16:24

Hi Victoria I'm only dpo4 and I feel really crampy and grouchy because I'm crampy - I never get this unless on period so I am feeling hopefull this is something different hopefully baby dust magic going on. Been feeling quite sick as well and having really bad heartburn when I never normally have that issue after eating however much I eat!

I am hoping so too Emily, been waiting too long. How long you been ttc?

OP posts:
EmilyPinkOrBlue · 16/02/2014 18:44

This is my first cycle trying:) i have felt broody for a baby for about year and a half but didn't feel quite ready until now. its amazing how already i somehow feel attached to what could be in my tummy so to speak! now i know why pregnant women are always stroking their bellies! how long have you been trying?

rockstars12 · 16/02/2014 18:52

BFP hopefully 21st - 25th Feb, TTC#1 cycle 2. Mine is normally 24-27 days varying each month. Last month ov on day 12, this month day 14 so I expect to have a slightly longer cycle, unless my luteal phase is short instead.
Don't think it will be a positive for me this month, I did everything right in terms of opk and temping, but my other half wasn't really up for dtd, so didn't do enough around the right time. Very frustrating!

EmilyPinkOrBlue · 16/02/2014 18:55

best of luck rockstar!! we are all in it together. post back any news :)

victoria401 · 16/02/2014 18:59

Welcome rockstar! I've been ttc #1 for 14 months, I need a BFP this time! Had the implant before so have had that time to really get to know my cycles. Isn't it complicated being a woman isn't it?!

rockstars12 · 16/02/2014 19:24

Thanks Emily!
Hi Victoria, It's taken me a lot of research to learn all this info, 28 and I never knew even half of what I should do. I was chatting to my DH saying that there's a lot more they should teach you in secondary school when they go through some of this. Even my mum doesn't know, she was ridiculously fertile and got pregnant easily. Completely oblivious that there is actually only a relatively small window on conception. Just shrugged and said she never thought about it!

Tell me about it. My mum had the 2 of us no issues. My sister had "an accident" from a missed pill! My best friend had a BFP on their 1st month ttc and had 2 more children with a few months of trying. Both my family and DH's family appear to be super fertile. We both have loads of aunts and uncles and loads of cousins. Most of our cousins have between 1 and 3 kids too. My sister has 2, both "accidents" in her words (hope she be never tells them that!).
