I know its waaay early for a November bus to set off but AF arrived today kicking me off the September bus and with DH away next month the October bus is not an option. Anyone fancy joining me in the long wait? I don't expect much action on this thread for a few weeks but it would be nice to have some company. My stats are below:

iamevan, 35, TTC#2, cycle 6, BFP due 7th November

AF finally arrived here. The last 3 cycles have been 32 days long! Hmm
So an update to my stats is BFP due 16th November. Smile

Hi want

Welcome tooth 32 days ouch!

CoffeeOne · 17/10/2014 20:09

My cycles are usually 34 days long and the waiting, oh the waiting, just to get to the tww. And then more waiting...

toothachereturns · 17/10/2014 20:15

much empathy Coffee. I'm still ovulating on day 14/15 though. it's the phase after that that's got longer. Is that good for ttc? My 2ww is 18 days long. Blush

CoffeeOne · 17/10/2014 20:20

I think a long LP is fine, good chance for any beans to stick! I ovulate on day 20/21 and have a 14 day LP. I find we have to pace ourselves dtd as we can run out of steam Blush

xBlueberry88x · 17/10/2014 20:32

I didnt think you could have an lp longer than 14 days am I wrong?

xBlueberry88x · 17/10/2014 20:34

Apprently its 16 days

toothachereturns · 17/10/2014 20:39

Hi Blueberry. Well mine definitely vis coz I've been charting my ovulation etc for 8 months. I always had 29 day cycles.... Ov day 14/15 and then 14/15 day LP. But Aug, Sept and now Oct too I've still ov'd on day 15 and then no af for another 16-18 days. what else could it be? def not been pg those months as I've tested.

xBlueberry88x · 17/10/2014 20:41

I googled it apprently its very rare but some women can have upto an 18 days luteal phase caused by a high level of progesterone

toothachereturns · 17/10/2014 20:44

ha we must have read the same site!Grin
apparently it shouldn't affect ttc..... But I just hope my body goes back to 29 day cycle soon. Blush

SoapSudBub · 17/10/2014 20:51

Hey tooth, I have a 32 day cycle too and bfp also due nov 16th! Cycle buddies?

SoapSudBub · 17/10/2014 20:52

Although I ov on cd19 usually!

CoffeeOne · 17/10/2014 20:56

I'm due on the 19th! We can obsess during our long cycle two week waits together Grin

SoapSudBub · 17/10/2014 21:18

Definitely coffee!! I totally know what you mean about running out of steam, we defo have to pace ourselves! Great to have fellow long cycle gals around for support :-)!

Pikz · 17/10/2014 21:31

Soap my cycles are 33-37 days. I ov day 20-24 so long time to wait here!

Beansprout30 · 17/10/2014 22:09

I also ovulate late, cd 19/20. Af has just buggered off but still ages to wait till ovulation

SoapSudBub · 17/10/2014 22:12

Ahhh pikz long cycles suck but I'm so glad I'm among fellow long cyclers!! Let's all be boring waiters together Smile

SoapSudBub · 17/10/2014 22:15

beansprout crossed posts, but glad to be waiting with you too Smile!

Beansprout30 · 17/10/2014 23:15

Hi soapsudbud! Let's hope the next week or so goes by quickly :))

seafoam · 18/10/2014 07:01

I'm back :( expect my seat is still warm.

Orangeisthenewbanana · 18/10/2014 07:35

Oh no seafoam Sad Thanks

Late ovulator here too! Usually around CD20-21. Seems like bloody ages to wait for! Usually start "serious" dtd around day 16/17 (opk depending) so we don't peak too soon, as it were! LP always 14 days though.

MrsGingerbread · 18/10/2014 08:59

Oh seafoam I'm sorry to see you back here, are you okay? Thanks

seafoam · 18/10/2014 09:28

Not really, completely heart broken. But it obviously wasn't meant to be. It was all over so fast. Having only known 5 days or so. I'm bleeding heavy now so know it's over. Shouldn't have got excited so soon.

Hopefully I'll have a decent cycle after and a late Nov bfp perhaps.

toothachereturns · 18/10/2014 10:39

Oh Seafoam. Sad Sorry to hear that. Same thing happened to me in May and June this year.
Have a huge Wine tonight and take care of yourself. x
