So I couldn't find a May thread, so I thought I'd start one for all of us who have dropped off the April thread.

Aunty arrived this morning so I 've just started cycle 4. TTC #2. Just had a long cycle so if this is the same length my most fertile time will be over Easter weekend.

So I might go all pagan and invoke some Spring fertility goddess. Or something. Or piss on some sticks.

?? Good luck, Spring Goddesses.

I can't decide not to stop this month. Dh do free and easy leaves all decisions to me. So I'm going to try a non trying month. I don't want to stress about it as there's already so much stress with the house etc. So I will give my honest stats in the hope you won't all beat me with bastardised sticks Shock

Age 34, ttc No6, (no2, with h2) cycle 5, bfp 24th may.

Gosh that was a mouthful!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 30/04/2014 09:26

Linda I had some false positives on internet cheapies so I'm sticking to frer from now on. Bfn is bad enough, but akin to retro seeing bfp then not is doubly hard. I think we should start a petition for tests to be regulated better.

gennibugs · 30/04/2014 09:33

english think I put my stats but if not mine are:

age 33 ttc#1 cycle#5 (for 2014) bfp due 26 May

thank you for doing them!

spinningirl10 · 30/04/2014 09:37

Mel I usually test from 10dpo but I am an addictGrin

Linda, how about trying another brand of test? I've read that sometimes the lines can take a week to get darker! Very frustrating for you.

toothachereturns · 30/04/2014 09:38

Thanks English. This is a very busy thread so well done for keeping track!

Spotti, I seem to OV early too. We've been TTC since August and I assumed I OV'd on day 13/14 of a 27 day cycle but got a CB test 3 months ago and thought it was broken the first month as it said I OV'd on day 9, same last month and CD 7 today I got a flashing smiley so probably a solid smiley on Friday.

So it looks like we may have been aiming for the wrong days for a while. Which makes me a bit less stressy about why it's taking so long but now I'm getting stressy that my follicular phase is too short Sad

EnglishGirlAbroad · 30/04/2014 09:41

Hope the lines get darker Linda and it's not a false positive!
FX a 'non-trying' month works out for you MrsE
Sympathies with the uti HanFlan, they really are the pits!!

6dpo here and nada going on..... just some creamy cm. But don't remember having any real symptoms until 12/13 dpo when I got my last bfp. Seriously hoping that I have a fertilised, viable egg in there merryily making its way to a nice plump landing spot in my uterus!! C'mon little egg!!

lindamagoo · 30/04/2014 09:42

I know MrsE, promised myself last month I wouldn't buy these stupid tests, lesson learned for sure this time though. I have a digi but not using it until I'm ever a few days late. I'll try not to be gutted if af shows at the weekend as it means I can have a good night out for my birthday on the 18th Smile

Thanks English what a busy bus!! Smile

hanflan · 30/04/2014 09:53

Thanks for doing the stats English, you are a star!

lindamagoo · 30/04/2014 09:53

Thanks English. You are a great bus driver Smile Can't believe it's May already tomorrow, fingers crossed for everyone this month Smile

lindamagoo · 30/04/2014 09:57

Just got my day 21 bloods back and all is good so I'm defo ovulating Smile atleast I now know it's still possible for my shrivelled old ovaries Grin

spinningirl10 · 30/04/2014 10:02

Good news Linda. Think I'll ask if I can get my bloods done. Do you have to get them done on cd21?

lindamagoo · 30/04/2014 10:10

Think it depends on your cycle spinning, you get them done 7 days after possible ovulation, give or take a couple of days. I had mines on cd 20 as 21 was a Saturday but still not sure if I ov'd on cd 13 or 17

Fingerscrossed36 · 30/04/2014 10:10

Oh just missed the bus Sad

Never mind I'll keep Bellaboo88 company.

Fingers crossed docs right about my cycles continuing without a monthly bleed.

My full stats

Age 32 TTC #2 BFP due 7th June

Bloods today to check female hormones, hoping for the best

Good luck ladies hope this is your month

madasacatter · 30/04/2014 10:15

Stats

Age (If you're willing to divulge) TTC#, Cycle # & BFP due date
24, TTC#2, Cycle 2 - not sure on BFP due as my cycles aren't settled, but I'm guessing 22nd May?

Hopefully in time for my birthday :)

lindamagoo · 30/04/2014 10:16

Good luck with your bloods fingers

Fingerscrossed36 · 30/04/2014 10:24

Thanks Linda

Brilliant news about your 21 day bloods

How long ago were they taken?

Keeping my fingers crossed for you that you get your BFP on the 4th

MissMrsMummy · 30/04/2014 10:24

Hi everyone

Congratulations fancy! Linda hope your line gets darker.

I must have missed Starbright as well so congratulations!

I am 7DPO, have had a bit of spotting and cramps. Have done a test today and yesterday because I'm mental and bfn obvs. I only have 2 ics left! Don't think I will buy any more. I don't want to get any more crazy!

lindamagoo · 30/04/2014 10:29

Fingers I just had them done on Friday, didn't have to wait long at all for results

lindamagoo · 30/04/2014 10:30

Lol MissMrs, we all get crazy with tests, you'd think we'd learn by now
