Well I'm just waiting for AF to show up and the timings mean I miss January all together. Anyone out there who would like to join me in trying for a BFP in February? :)

CoffeeTwo, 31, ttc #2, cycle 6, BFP due 10th February.

Coming on board. Just waiting for AF to show up.

Annoyingly I've just noticed that my late shifts fall again slap bang around the time of ov in February. Ugh. This might be much more difficult than I'd originally thought Angry

jss84 · 23/01/2015 09:28

Morning all...going a bit mad here. I'm on CD 15, no positive OPK and no EWCM...i have never been so focussed on the contents of my pants! Didn't have much luck with OPKs last month either, but thought it was because I wasn't doing them as religiously as wasn't officially TTC. Have been temping for months though...which suggests I ovulate CD15-17...so surely I should have had at least a flashing smiley by now?!

DizzyNorthernBird · 23/01/2015 09:29

Hi pulpi, was following you over on jan bus, sorry you've had to join us Flowers

KnitFastDieWarm · 23/01/2015 09:31

Morning all - just disembarked form the January bus with AF Angry so am currently enjoying the fun time that is cd1!

DizzyNorthernBird · 23/01/2015 09:35

Morning jss! How many days do you usually see ewcm? Maybe you're ov'ing late this month?

Welcome to knitfast, wow there seems to be lots of you coming across from jan bus now!

Sweets27 · 23/01/2015 09:35

night I think they're just more accurate in the morning because your pee is not diluted by whatever you're drinking during the day - so the tests are going to find it easier to detect the relevant hormones, because they're more concentrated. May be wrong though - definitely not a doctor!

twototango, got my first non-flashing smiley this morning too. Isn't it a pleasing thing to see? Smile Fx for your DH to be in the mood tonight... I'm hoping the same thing with mine!

ultimate and dizzy, hope the TWW goes quickly for you!

And Cardabelle, welcome aboard! Fx for a lovely birthday BFP for you next month!

Sweets27 · 23/01/2015 09:36

And welcome knitfast and pulpi too, we're getting really busy here now! Lots of good company for us Smile

Sweets27 · 23/01/2015 09:37

Ladies, quick question (sorry for so many multiple posts!) - when does the thicker CM start to turn into EWCM? Is it just before you ovulate, or during ovulation, or afterwards...? Or can it vary a lot?

Thanks!

ConceptionZilla · 23/01/2015 09:50

sweets my EWCM seems to arrive a day or so before I get a positive opk, then I think I must ovulate a day or so later.

WinterBabyof89 · 23/01/2015 09:53

Morning everyone!
Just waiting to officially join you.. Period two days late but bfn this morning so it's just a waiting game for me now.

Stats - Winter, 25, ttc #3, dd - infant loss July '14, cycle 2, bfp due late feb

Hairstylisttoboris · 23/01/2015 09:56

Welcome to all new passengers, sorry to read so many familiar names from the Jan bus.
winter so very sorry for your loss.

jss84 · 23/01/2015 10:03

Welcome winter!

Dizzy I actually don't get a lot of EWCM...usually only for a day. I have bought some preseed which I'm hoping will make up for this. If it wasn't for my temp rise every month I'd be a bit worried I wasn't ovulating.

DizzyNorthernBird · 23/01/2015 10:05

sweets I see a few days of it before ov should occur.

So this month cm took on a 'jelly' like consistency on Tuesday-weds, Thursday was when I got my positive and Friday was when I saw what I would say is 'proper' ewcm as it had turned clear. Apparently once ov has happened the ewcm dries up very quickly so you should have a very dry day with nothing at all. At least I do anyway!

DizzyNorthernBird · 23/01/2015 10:07

jss maybe you'll see some tomorrow or Sunday then? Start dtd with the pre seed just in case!

DizzyNorthernBird · 23/01/2015 10:10

ewcm seems to be my favourite topic for some reason! Can't get enough of talking about the stuff ha ha Grin

WinterBabyof89 · 23/01/2015 10:10

Thank you hairstylisttoboris (love your name - my son has Boris hair when he wakes up!) & jss84 Smile..

I forgot how all-consuming ttc is!
I don't usually get a lot of EWCM either - might look into the preseed you mentioned

ibeka · 23/01/2015 10:12

boris, I know what you mean. In 7 years I have NEVER known DP turn down sex but now he's suddenly 'too tired' just at the right time and I've become a bit of a crazy frantic.

Morning and welcome to knitfast, pulpi, cardabelle and winterbaby. Very sorry to read of your loss, winter.

jss I was beginning to feel really down about the OPKs then a big fat positive last night - just keep at it! Apparently the 'surge' can be very quick/small and you can easily miss it testing every day so if your temping tells you you do OV just get cracking ;-)

roughtyping · 23/01/2015 10:13

Hello, can I join please? Just off the January bus - last cycle really took it's toll, I was secretly convinced I was pregnant. I have normally very long cycles of 37 days, last cycle was 39. Getting very fed up of it all!

Roughtyping, 29, TTC #2, cycle 6, waiting for 26th February ShockSad

Sweets27 · 23/01/2015 10:13

Thanks conceptionzilla and Dizzy. I don't usually monitor CM that much, but 2 or 3 days ago it was quite thick, and I was starting to get OPK flashing smileys. This morning was non-flashing smiley and definite EWCM, so maybe I'll be ovulating tomorrow? Fx anyway!

Sweets27 · 23/01/2015 10:15

Welcome winterbaby and so sorry to hear about your loss last July. Fingers crossed for this time round! Welcome roughtyping too Smile

pulpi · 23/01/2015 10:18

Hiya dizzy and knitfast! Keeping my fingers crossed for us this month.

ibeka · 23/01/2015 10:19

Oh, and sweets I had loads of EWCM Sun eve/Mon/Tues am then nothing weds or yesterday then +ve OPK last night, so I too am hoping this means I'll OV today or maybe tomorrow? FX!
