Morning all! Happy poas day!

treacle everything is crossed for you. Hope this is your month.

Dtd last night for the first time since mc so I'm now properly in the race to catch that eggy! We shall see...

Nordicmom · 04/07/2014 07:26

Had another cb test like the two in the last two days with fmu that had faint lines . Going to the loo all the time now even at night so maybe not concentrated enough but it's so depressing .
On the positive side at least we finally booked our holiday . Going to Turkey where we haven't been yet in two + weeks for a week . Will have our own pool yeah in a hotel enviroment so no cooking etc for a week :)... In the end we couldn't face long haul connecting flights with dd 2 y after inially looking at going further like last summer . 4 h direct flight sounds good to me now :). Have pretty much decided to all head to Bora Bora in Tahiti next year for my 40 unless preg or a small baby so have something to look forward to what ever happens :)! That will entail a couple of long flights with a 3 y though but I think she'll be a bit better traveller by then ...
Anyway this is what I do when feeling depressed , I make plans and try to move on
Good luck to anyone testing

Cpt1sock · 04/07/2014 07:30

AF arrived this morning, 4 days early. Last month was 3 days early. 21 day cycle this month. F@ck why I have been 27-29 days until the last few months.

Nordicmom · 04/07/2014 07:31

Thinking of you today Spinning !

Nordicmom · 04/07/2014 07:32

Sorry about AF Cpt1. I feel like mine is imminent too

MrsExtraOrdinary · 04/07/2014 07:33

Cpt I had a completely out the blue amazingly (for me) long cycle. I'm sure mine was stress related. Has anything changed for you? Some of these vitamins can is think sometimes be counter productive. So different for everyone.

cinnamongreyhound · 04/07/2014 07:33

Sorry about af and your dss MrsExtraOrdinary! Glad life is going to get easier. I'm starting to see a few rebellious things from my dss but generally he's a good boy, luckily! He's 13 next week and I've been wth dh since he was 3 so I've just always been around which helps I think.

My dh is 48 Teadrinkerandatinker and he thinks he's going to be an old dad!! 27 certainly isn't! I was 26 when I had ds1 and was quite old around where I live for a first time mum!!

Didn't poas this morning as I didn't need to :( feeling very sad and still nauseous strangely!! Trying to be positive that perhaps it's better to have one full cycle without a coil and perhaps my lining wasn't think enough as I didn't have it removed until cd9 but it's hard to be positive. Dh has been lovely this morning and my boys both gave me a big cuddle when they got up without me saying a word!

Amymighalls · 04/07/2014 07:35

hello

Joining in this forum for the first time, took my last pill wed 11th June so hoping all being well for a bfp around the 11th July fx. I've been on the pill for 10 years so no idea if my cycle will be normal this month!!

Age 27, ttc #2, cycle 1, bfp 11 July???

cinnamongreyhound · 04/07/2014 07:35

X loads of post there and got to dash sorry to hear about af Cpt1sock! Will read rest later.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 04/07/2014 07:52

Cinnamon if I'd had dss at 3 I think it would have been a different story. I'm so glad this will all be sorted for his 2 gcse years. Fresh start for everyone.

BrixtonBunny · 04/07/2014 07:53

Cpt so sorry af got you. If you're worried about your cycle being too short you could try taking pregnacare / vitamin b6 as apparently they extend your luetal phase - I think that's why lots of women get longer cycles when taking vits. Anyway sending hugs Thanks

My af is due today but no sign of her witchy fingers, POAS yesterday and bfn so hoping she turns up soon so I can get cracking with next cycle! Ironically have been DTD every day for last few days - I just need that to happen over next ovulation! Smile

cinnamongreyhound · 04/07/2014 08:06

I think it makes a huge difference MrsExtraOrdinary, we've had our share of problems but nothing like yours by the sounds of it. It's a tough job!

TheGrandHighWitch · 04/07/2014 08:24

Morning ladies. Sorry about your af Cpt1sock hopefully you will get your bfp soon. Good to hear your DSS will get the support he needs MrsExtraOrdinary. I presume af got you too cinnamongreyhound or did I read that wrong? If not then so sorry but at least your bfp is one month closer. Hope af stays away for you BrixtonBunny. Going my luteal phase, mine is late (but that could be down to the multivitamins), going by cycle day it could be any day up til about sunday I think so hopefully it stays away for us both.

Another day another super faint line on an IC. So faint I can't tell if there is colour to it or not (and of course my husband cannot see anything). I've taken the best possible picture I could but my god it was tricky. Planning to go to superdrug this morning and pick up a twin pack so I can do one today and another with FMU tomorrow. Pic here but warning not for the faint of eyesight Grin.

July Bus to BFP land - Part 2 (and it's not even July yet!)
OP posts:
BrixtonBunny · 04/07/2014 08:31

I've had a good old squint GrandHigh but as I've never used an IC I don't really know what I'm looking for! Fx for you though, hopefully the superdrug one will confirm a nice BFP! X

lp2014 · 04/07/2014 08:38

Im sorry cpt! Never mind, next month may well be the one! Keep positive!

I am expecting af either today or tomorrow as cycles are usually 26 or 27 days long. Will text in the morning if i am not put out the game today xx

lp2014 · 04/07/2014 08:45

Test not text

Mulberry82 · 04/07/2014 08:57

Oh my goodness, I have had a vile week at work but been having a quick read in the mornings but not managed to post. I have been thinking of you and hoping for some BFPs every morning, does look like there are some hopefuls.

Sorry to all those that got af, it is rubbish but I think the August bus is going to be super BFP filled I'm sure.

I tested this morning, bit early and bfn. Not that surprised it was my first month off the pill, however had managed to convince myself that my normal PMS symptoms were a BFP! Lesson learnt indeed, it seems cruel that they are so similar!!

Good luck to anyone POAS today! Fx

Counting down to a massive glass of wine.....

Xx

mistywillow17 · 04/07/2014 08:59

GrandHigh, I can't see on the pic, but keeping my fingers crossed for you

Having a bit of a moment here - 7/8/9 dpo I think, depending on dates (it's been difficult to tell this month) and visiting my parents for a few days - remembering to bring a secret stash of peesticks to feed my addiction to peeing on stuff. (Not my usual IC strips, midstream cheapies.)

Boobs ached like buggery all last night, even more than normal, so I caved this morning and had a furtive POAS, didn't see anything and stashed it away in my room so my parents wouldn't see it. Just had a look, and there is the faintest of faint pinkish lines. If I squint with my head tilted to the side

My head is saying too much time has passed, it isn't accurate
My heart is pounding though - so nice/terrifying to have the teeniest tiniest bit of hope.

sparkle17 · 04/07/2014 09:02

Sorry that af got you cpt

Keep us updated grandhigh we need another bfp for the bus.

I got a solid smiley face on cb digital today. Just packing for weekend away now. Lets hope dh is up for lots of dtd. First time using opks and it is surprisingly pleasing getting a positive ov result!

spinningirl10 · 04/07/2014 09:16

Morning Grin

Misty, sounds promising, fx its a bfp!

Sparkle, enjoy your weekend away, what perfect timingWink

MrsE, sounds like you've had really had a tough few years. It astounds me that a mother could do that to her childSad you sound like you've done brilliantly and the school sounds perfect for him. I really hope he settles there and you can all enjoy weekends together.

Grandhigh, eek how exciting, really hope it's a bfp for you!

Sorry to those of you who have been visited by afWine

Nordic, Sad sorry for today's bfn, maybe do a different test? Loving the plans for your 40th, that will be fantastic.

Thank you so much ladies for your kind words, Linda I read yours last night and it made me cry. You are all so kind. Today I am feeling happier and looking at the positives. I'm lucky to have 2 gorgeous children that make me smile everyday and a fab dp. We're off on holiday in about 10days, looking forward to some relaxation and Wine.

And Linda, how was your scan? Have you got a photo to share with us?

Oh and we dtd last nightGrin hopefully get a positive opk later today and dtd again tonight.

MrsI86 · 04/07/2014 09:17

I am about 8dpo, cd22 of a 28day cycle. When can I start poas? The wait is driving me nuts...

Hoping to see some bfps soon- sounds like some hopefuls out there!

cinnamongreyhound · 04/07/2014 09:20

Yes TheGrandHighWitch, got af this morning. Can see your line but I'm on my phone so have to zoom and it just goes blurry!

Sorry to hear about your week and bfn Mulberry82.

Fx for a stronger line tomorrow MistyWillow17, think it's best to try again!

BrixtonBunny · 04/07/2014 09:31

Ahh, the witch just got me! But I'm really very ok about it, this was only first month so wasn't expecting much anyway. The good thing is my cycle is quite short so I'll stay on the bus and will hope for a BFP at the end of July! So, some new stats for me:

BrixtonBunny, 26, TTC#1, cycle2, BFP due July 28

Fx for everyone over the next few days, sorry for any BFNs but let's make July and August our months xx

notoasthere · 04/07/2014 09:33

Sorry to those who have had af arrive this morning
grand I can see a whisper of a line - a frer will confirm either way I think!

mrsi hold off another few days if you can!

Cpt1sock · 04/07/2014 09:42

sparkle when I got my first smiley face I punched the air and did a little dance. V.pleasing.

mrse your poor step son! I hope things move on quickly and you can all start to heal from the terrible time you've had as a family.

I've had to stop taking meds to ttc so maybe that's caused a change. I'm starting to think dh was right about waiting until we are in a new house before ttc. I'd forgotten how stressful selling/buying houses is, I have a constant ball of nerves in my stomach, tapping feet, drumming fingers I'm a great big ball of nervous energy. Not the ideal environment for growing a small human really.

cinnamon I'm sorry you're feeling down this morning. How lovely of your boys to be so cuddly.

grand I think I can see something on your test, looking forward to seeing a clearer one later!

Sorry to anyone else who's AF has arrived this morn or has had a bfn.

I need to get on with the day, stop moping, get dressed. A bit of sun would make it easier. I got a new delivery of crystals to have a play with, that'll cheer me up. I'm like a child around sweets!

Love & light to you all.
