Tww starts tomorrow!

[Birdtable]

Anyone else?? Ovulation yesterday and today and been dtd lots!! Ttc #2 2cycle. Let's hope we get our bfp!!

CatRen I never thought of it like that. You might be on to something. I've never ever done temperatures, OPKs or anything yet I've conceived three times. Basically just by shagging every day/every other day. How are you feeling?

And teejayem - are you ok? It's the worst thing having a bfn but no AF. You just want to shut the door on it, so to speak!

Oh yeah Cat it definitely does! But I think charting/monitoring/testing allows some people to feel control over events that are pretty out of your control anyway. There's no way that I could take the casual approach. I have to be organised and take charge as much as is possible. It's just personality. With DS I was able to successfully monitor CM and temps and got it right first time. This time I'm finding it more difficult as things just aren't clear cut like they were for DS. The ol' body and its systems have immeasurably changed.

zoobaby I think you're right - it's a balance between what is most stressful, not having control or feeling in control! I think keeping distracted and dtd as much as possible might be better for my personality, as I'm a little bit obsessive..!

Angels that's interesting to hear about your first time. I'm feeling okay thanks, just a bit in limbo. Can't be disappointed yet as AF hasn't arrived but getting ready for it! Ho hum..

Plus blanksfornames... just read your advice re OPKs. Looks like they worked huh?

I'm okay [angels] angels - tbh, although I'm on CD31, I think I popped my egg really late - of my three apps, one gives me AF on Wed just gone, one for tomorrow and the other is saying next Wednesday! - If the latter is correct, then I'm only 10dpo, (why does one bloody so still time I guess. Based on the Clearblue Digi test I did, I had a high smiley and a peak after from Sat 1st, so I guess I'm hanging in limbo for a few days yet. I used an FRER at lunch, but really should have done it with FMU as I'd had quite a lot of water to try and encourage my wee, so I guess it might have diluted? clutches all available straws
Might just hang it out another 5 days and see where we are.

that was supposed to say angels yeesh. thank god it's Friday.

Oh god, teejayem, I'm a terrible straw clutcher. Tbh I've only ever used FMU once to get a BFP - the others were lunchtime wonders. But we can clutch at the "haven't started AF yet" straw! Was this your first month off the pill iirc? I'll do another test tomorrow before the drinking commences, and then I guess I'll just do the others next week though...

Not sure if I like being off the pill right now. I'm spotty, moody, down, a bit anxious and seriously tired. And of course I now have no idea when AF will arrive whereas before I could work it out months in advance.

Good luck for those testing tonight - Ladyflower, there's you... And who else?

Hi all bfn here to. Ironically stared spotting at lunchtime, now wondering if this af or an implantation bleed as dtd last night. Will wait and see, horrid upset stomach for last 3 days hope this isn't related to af monthly visit as it's not good!

Nope, off the pill in early March, but didn't have AF until 70+ days later!! I really struggled with coming off cerazette, I felt bloody awful for the first few weeks, and I bloated like a whale! mmmm. Attractive!! This will be my 2nd post pill AF, but I'm so sure I Ov'd so I can't see how it wont turn up. (or not if I've struck lucky) Huff.

70 days!! Oh god. Bet that was hard :(

Sorry Katy :(

DP's sister has just given birth but I'm hoping her baby puts me off rather than makes me broody... Yeh right!

This party is not turning out so well. Sorry to hear of all the BFNs and that AF turned up for you Fruity. I was so sure you would be getting a positive today. Second you extra clouds of babydust for next month.
I've been wondering about whether the stress of it all could be hindering our chances, but I can't do relaxed and also cannot contemplate DTD every other day from the end of one AF to the start of the next! I got preggars just by checking out my CM last time, but it's erratic now, so my body has gone off the rails too zoobaby. Think I will be turning to the OPKs for guidance next month.
I am now bricking it as only another couple of hours till stick time. I know if it is BFN I will be blaming it on dilute evening wee!
Hi 1moretime, good to see you over here
Angels, coming off the pill was horrendous for me too and I wondered if I could hack life without it! Now been off it 3 months and things improved - especially spots, now completely gone!

Ooh good luck Lady! I would dtd from one AF to the next... Just over the fertile days... DP was grateful anyway!

Thanks for the heads up... Peed off I'm going to be spotty for tomorrow, I rarely get a day out like that! Ah well

70 days and many, many wasted wee sticks. God knows how much I spent, so I'm now restricting myself to 3 maximum a month (one double pack and one digi) I only have the digi left now! Typically AF showed on day 75 right in the middle of our holiday which was quite frankly, a total disgrace. Sod it, I'm having a wine.

This is torture, AF is now late which is v unusual as I can normally set my watch by her but BFN this morning and def feeling like AF is due?? Hopefully she will come tomo and end this misery.......grrrrrrr! X

Wouldn't dtd* I meant! I'm not that energetic!

Go for it, teejayem. I'm about to crack open a Bacardi and coke can I can only drink fizzy alcohol!

Newbie - I'm with you there, it is torture! Hope AF comes soon so you can move onto next month. Fingers crossed for me too... Can only wait for AF as I doubt I'll get a BFP now!

[cheers] angels honestly, if nothing comes of this cycle, then my two weeks of agony boobs have been for nothing. They are ridiculously sore!

I've never had sore boobs so for me, I wouldn't know if that was a good or bad sign! If its not pregnancy related could it be pmt? I'm doing another test in the morning, just to prolong the agony...!

I knew the second I woke up AF was coming. You can just tell can't you.

Cried enough today and had much love from the OH who has been awesome. It's just such a kick in the ass after a week of thinking maybe just maybe this time is it.

Onwards we go next month it is, and not sure I can rely on my calendar this time lol.

No idea, didn't have sore boobs before my belated surprise AF, but used to get em pre pill AF, which was a looooong (like 10 years) time ago. Kind of bummed, I told OH that the peestick said nay, and he looked a bit meh and went off and played his drums. Hmmph. Decided that if I don't get visited, and my 10 dpo app estimate is right, then I'm going to splurge wee on the digi on Wednesday. not wasting it any earlier! When's supposed AF for you angels? Have all my finger crossed for you. X

Well I am currently drinking a beer which usually is a good thing but not tonight. Had a small amount of condolence from dh and now he's watching football. Opks at the ready for next time. Stupid af better hurry up and start now!

Agreed re AF, hurry up!

I've ordered the advanced clearblue digital OPK's which apparently give you your 4 fertile days and can tell you, your 2 peak fertility days so with them plus my new found knowledge of DTD every other day of your 6 fertile days, I'm hoping and praying it will work! Xx

Next month I'm waiting past my AF date like I did this month. I don't think testing before AF is supposed to come would do my sanity any good lol. Waiting till late and then seeing what happens.

Back to the arts and crafts for now :)

Yeh I'm glad I waited till af due as I believe the result! Glad poas now up and running for our next go and sending positive vibes to the rest of the chicks in with a chance this time x

Oh Lady :( hope you're ok. I have to admit I love the World Cup

Teejayem - not sure, as I came off the pill in may. If I was still on the pill I'd have come on today. But I got a BFN today, so god knows :( hate waiting for anything, also love to be in control so this is a nightmare!! Wish our other halves understood...

Lady was it a bfn? So sorry
Here's to this cycle though!
