I got a peak (static smiley) fertility on CB Ovulation Stick on the evening of CD16 so not sure whether I ovulated on that day or a day or so after - I'm assuming that DTD on CD 15 and 17 did the trick!

hc899 · 12/12/2014 09:07

Also want to say a massive good luck to all you other ladies out there - I know how much I wanted a baby so I really hope you all get your BFPs very soon! x

JessieMcJessie · 12/12/2014 09:15

Thanks. My strongest OPKs this cycle were days 18 and 19 (worryingly late as I O'd on day 14 last month). FF says I ovulated on day 20, going by temps, but I reckon it was the eve of the 19th.

We DTD on days 12, 13, 15, 16, 18 and 20. I suppose that should have been enough to cover it.

Sorry that's very dull for everyone but it has actually helped me to write down the dates. 5dpo is a truly frustrating time...

ShootTheMoon · 12/12/2014 09:25

Congrats to toothache and hg.

Nordic, I'm so sorry you're going through this.

BFN on FR this morning Sad

spinningirl10 · 12/12/2014 09:28

Morning Grin

Tooth, great stats, a bfp at 8dpo is amazing!!!Grin

Hc, yay for the digi. Pleased you believe it now.

Genni, I'm really sorry to hear that you have that af feeling already. Hugs to you and there's a large glass of mulled wine for you when neededThanks

Nordic, sorry the bloods were negative. You've really been through it. A month off sounds good but I hope the soy works for you next timeThanks

Terry, are you still lurking? Miss you around here and wondered how you're getting onSmile

Cd7 here and really can't be arsedSmile it's such a job to get Dp to dtd on demand! Hopefully I'll feel more like it when my cold finally goes, it's been over a week now!

WestCountryLondonGirl · 12/12/2014 09:54

To everyone symptom spotting - I'm now 5+1 and my only symptoms have been lines on multiple pregnancy tests (it's been a week now, but keep testing as I want to see the i.c. lines get darker - and the tests are the only proof I've got at the mo!).

Whoever asked about agnus castus/vitex, I've been taking it for 6 months - I started it in June.

hc great to see that digi result!

TinyWishes · 12/12/2014 10:02

Feeling very weepy and sorry for myself today. Feel like it's never going to happen. I've wanted this for so long. It's all I have ever wanted. I don't know what else I can do. Think I am going to nip to the loo for a cry and slap myself around the face!

Congratulations to all BFP's - wishing you all a long and healthy pregnancy. xxxx

victoria401 · 12/12/2014 10:15

Sorry to those who af arrived :-(

Congrats to the strong bfp's!

Hi math yes I have to do the injections myself. The first and 3rd type seem ok as they are epi-pens pre loaded with doses and you just need to be able to change the needle. The 2nd drug however you have to draw up fluid into a syringe and squirt the bubbles out of the top etc! Argh! How has is come to this?!

frolic am also approaching the dreaded 35!

Rainy34 · 12/12/2014 10:28

Congrats HC now you can finally believe that your pregnant!!

Congratulations tooth!!!

Victoria and frolic I too will be 35 next year, I wished I had come off the pill sooner, but we will get there x x

Rainy34 · 12/12/2014 10:36

I've got my husbands Christmas do tonight , he said at first that he did not want me to have any alcohol , I am around 5dpo I did tell him if I had a couple it would not do anything at this stage , so he is happy for me to have a couple , I am not going mad with it but think of I don't have any il have to put up with questions all night
Not much to report a little crampy on and off but I think I get that every month and when I blow my nose there is a little blood, but I've had a cold and probably blew to hard, trying to remain positive and not get sucked into my usual stressy self in the two week wait, just wish it would hurry up and could find out and take it from there !!!

fififolle · 12/12/2014 10:56

I'm out. Will hop on the Jan bus.
Congratulations to all the BFPs.
I don't think that we tried hard enough this months with winter viruses etc, only manage to DTD cd 9, 17 and19. I had a CB digi +ve OPK on 18th so thought I was in with a chance. Still early days post MMC.

JessieMcJessie · 12/12/2014 11:09

I wish I was only "approaching the dreaded 35" instead of being 6 years beyond it SadEnvy.

fififolle · 12/12/2014 11:18

The 'dreaded 35' is based on french research that is centuries out of date.

tessiegirl · 12/12/2014 11:24

Massive congrats to you hc899!! So happy for you!

Rainy - I am sure a couple of Wine will be absolutely fine

So sorry you are feeling low TinyWishes Flowers

Still brown spotting here and temp was back up this morning but very crampy. Come on AF!!! I have had enough now, show your face and get on with it! Xmas Angry

hc899 · 12/12/2014 11:41

Thanks Tessiegirl! Good luck to you x

MaMaPo · 12/12/2014 11:46

Hello all again - I have been off here for a few weeks since AF arrived at the start of Dec, but it's probably time to pop my head in again. CD11 here and expecting to ovulate CD15, so DTD began again. My husband managed to find some Preseed lube so that will be good - have used normal lube once last month, which probably isn't ideal.

Best of luck to everyone in the 2ww and congrats to the BFPs. :)

Sparkly123 · 12/12/2014 11:51

Congrats hc899! Fantastic news!

JessiemcJ I'm with you on the frustration! Sending positive thoughts to you!!! I am 7 dpo now or 6dpo if FF is right. From 4/5dpo I've had cramping and increase in CM. However today my temp has dipped a little.. Not sure what that means as this months chart is complete opposite from last months. Anyone shed any light??

nutelladipper · 12/12/2014 11:56

sparkly a few of us are testing on the 19th then. Let's hope it's a lucky day!

Sparkly123 · 12/12/2014 12:24

Nutella! How are you doing? I've never had to actually test before because I've always had the tell take signs of AF starting and then arrive.. I'm quite good at waiting...so far..!! This is only cycle 3 though so that may change!!!

I'm due on 19th/20th so I'm holding off till then I think. Wish I would get a sign sooner though! I am going a bit insane this month, Must be the Christmas period! Xmas Wink

victoria401 · 12/12/2014 12:39

7dpo. Further than I thought! Marvelous! I feel 100% absolutely normal.

nutelladipper · 12/12/2014 12:41

I'm doing ok at the mo and not even symptom spotting which is odd for me. Christmas prep with two young children is clearly distracting me. I'm a poas addict so as much as I want to wait till next Friday I know I'll poas before then! I've always until last month had a lp which is 12 days so in theory I could be due AF by Wednesday (17th) but last month was 14 days hence saying I'd test on 19th.

All previous pregnancies have never given me a positive till after Af due but I still torture myself.

MrsGingerbread · 12/12/2014 14:16

Hello everyone.

Sorry, I haven't read back, trying to focus less on ttc this month and enjoy party season!

I have ovulated late though, which movesy bfp date to 24/12 - if af turns up I am adamant she won't spoil Christmas! Can someone please update my stats the next time they are done?

tessiegirl · 12/12/2014 15:56

Oh well, I am definitely out unfortunately. AF has arrived in full red flow and very heavy straight away (sorry tmi)
Here is my ff chart in case anyone is interested or can shed any light?
Will pop over to the Jan bus but will keep my eye on here to cheer everyone on!! Come on Christmas BFP's! Xmas Grin

butterflycats · 12/12/2014 16:28

feel like I might as well Jump off the bus as my progesterone level was 1.3 so I definitely haven't ovulated. Feel absolutely rubbish :( hoping GP will refer me for some clomid!

Treaclepie19 · 12/12/2014 16:43

Ok, 8dpo and I feel awful. Sicky, sore boobs, tired, migraines. You name it ive got it.
Probably just actually ill though rather than pregnant.
Off out for my Xmas meal with work in a bit. Gonna have a glass or two of wine and hope I don't get carried away!
