Institute of bodies doing strange and unexpected things, but we're still gonna get our Bfps! (the loveliest group of hand-holders you ever did meet)

[haquoi123]

Tww thread #2! Best wonderful group ever, wishing you all the best with your bfps! Thanks for keeping my chin up when I've been at my lowest and celebrating the highs with me - all the love xxx

Don't think so, I tested this morning and it was negative (before AF showed up), I have to begin testing 6 days after first Emily on CBFM. I was feeling shaky and exhausted from last night, had to lie down midway thro getting the evening meal together.

Don't want to get my hopes up either.

Feeling really emotional right now.

Do let us know about the acupuncture. My gynae actually recommended acupuncture to me when I was having problems with AF a few years ago.

Emily? Smiley (stooopid autocorrect)

Hope you're feeling better soon Fuzzy.

I had one session of acupuncture last cycle Doom. I couldn't relax though and haven't had a chance to go back for more.

What is the earliest (in terms of days post ovulation) that you can poas?

Hi all, feeling vaguely human again with one dose of antibiotics left to go. 3 weeks until my fertility appointment and off for blood tests and chlamydia swab tomorrow morning in preparation. Then got to have d2-4 bloods done so got forms for that ready.

Finding, I think some people test from 9dpo but also think that's a small number of people!!

So went to the Dr this morning to get the pregnancy confirmed she is so lovely she actually shouted yay! When we told her!

Glad you're feeling better Remember.

Your Dr sounds lovely Red. It must be nice to go to the Dr with something positive.

I've got my first consultation with the Prof towards the end of September to get the ball rolling for IVF.

Hello everyone, hope you're all ok.

Remember I hope you're feeling better.

Finding, haquoi how are you both?

So I had what I thought was my period beginning on Tuesday (at what I thought was 6/7dpo going by my cbfm), I use a mooncup and it seemed to be only brown cm, then everything's stopped. Nothing that evening nothing yesterday and nothing today.

However BFN all three days.

Maybe I was getting mid cycle spotting, I'm not sure if I should be worried. Don't feel unwell or anything.

It has been an emotional and stressful few weeks tho, so maybe contributed to it.

I'm not sure if I'm back on the TWW or not.

Fuzzy that sounds like a possible imantarion bleed? Maybe you're not quite ready to test yet.

Update for me is that I'm 7dpo and no symptoms to speak of.

Finding I was wandering if it could be, but I have no other symptoms and I was googling (know I shouldn't), and came up with all sorts of reasons for a mid cycle bleed. I suppose I can only hope to wait and see.

It's definitely not af tho, had to be somewhere important today and used mooncup as normally af is full on by CD3 and didn't want to get caught out but I didn't need to.

Also if it helps I have no symptoms either.

finding - have you tested yet? Fingers crossed for you
fuzzy - has the spotting stopped now? Have you tested again?
How is everyone else?
Update from me - cd13 with a positive ovulation test today, so yet another 2ww coming up soon

Diamond, no I haven't tested. I don't have any symptoms and I don't feel tempted to test.

Good news that you're ovulating though. Hope it's a successful one for you this cycle.

Spotting stopped after one day and restarted today. Not hopeful for this cycle.

Think I need a trip to the GP.

For years when I'm not ttc my body behaves perfectly...

Good luck to you both on your TWW . :)

Thanks finding - I was surprised to get the positive today as it is a bit early but hope that's a good sign. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you, no symptoms can be a good thing. When would af be due? even though I hope it stays well away
Thanks fuzzy sorry to hear spotting has reappeared. I know what you mean - our bodies do strange things when we're ttc. I've started having really long periods recently which I've never had, it's a pain. Why can't it just be easy? I've just been on another ttc website and there was a woman on who only had sex once this month and just got her bfp??? How is that possible or fair??!

Af is due around the 29th.

I know what you mean about people who just get pregnant by accident or so easily. It's so frustrating. Especially when I'm shoving pillows under my bum and "cycling" with my legs in the air for what feels like hours every time!

Fuzzy, I hope you get some answers from the Dr.

Hi everyone! Not posted in a while as I was trying to forget about ttc as much as possible as its so frustrating!

I am on cycle 4 I think of officially ttc however have been not using contraception for many months (at least a year!). Most of my friends seem to be pregnant at the moment

I figured out I have long cycles (38 days on average) so maybe this is the problem. I also don't ovulate regularly at all and don't have typical symptoms of ovulation. We are going to keep going for a few more months though!

Hope everyone else is well!

Need advice please, I was expecting af to put in an appearance by now, I'm officially two days late going by my average cycle.

I had spotting at 6/7dpo then nothing till, 9dpo had brown cm, thought right that's af starting but then nothing then again brown cm at 11dpo was feeling a bit achy like I do when af is visiting.

Today nothing. And I am officially two days late according to my average cycle.

I have no symptoms.

I am now not googling about what it could be as frankly I'm scaring myself.

When should I go visit GP? I keep expecting af to arrive and would feel really silly going rushing off to the GP and af is only a couple of days late.

I have tested using the CBAFM and it says BFN. Apart from the weird intermittent brown discharge (& absent af) I have no symptoms.

Afternoon all, not been about much this week or so as been busy with work and wedding plans.

Last week I went to the Drs again for more bloods in preparation for appointment at fertility clinic. Was pretty sure that the progesterone would be

Hello everyone - is it too late for me to join? I've lurked for a while but was too shy to post anything! I've just started cycle 6 today

Beginning to feel like I've not got a clue and could do with a bit of hand-holding!

Hi handbag Corse you are welcome.

Just an update for everyone. I have been doing the ClearBlue trial this month and it's been a strange one. Started getting high fertility on day 10, today is day 17 and still no peak. My cycles are usually only 26 days and I usually get a peak on day 13-15. I have had 2 lots of acupuncture and we only BD on days 9 and 12. DP has man flu so hasn't been in the mood since then.

Also I had creamy cm for a few days at the start of the month, followed by nothing around usual ovulation days and now have a little ewcm now that I should have already ovulated. Plus I have had tingly boobs more than usual this cycle.

I did a pregnancy test on day 1 as suggested by the ClearBlue trial, but bfn.

Don't know what is going on, but really been stressed this month.

Hi, I'm new. Been reading lots of posts as I'm TTC and think I may have had IB. Cycles are not regular which has been frustrating. Averaging 36 days. Had spotting CD22 very briefly. Had it again yesterday, started brownish discharge, have now had some slightly heavier blood flow but Not fresh. Have never had this. Felt a bit nauseous last week and very tired, but been very stressed at work so don't want to get hopes up. AF due around thurs next week based on average cycle length last few months. Trying to avoid testing until after thurs as really want a positive and don't want to tempt fate

Hey Doom I have completed my Clearblue trial today and will be sending everything back to them tomorrow. I was the opposite to you in that I went from blank circle to fixed smiley face on cd10 with no flashing faces inbetween. It corresponds with having a definite surge of progesterone on my d21 bloods so I think it was accurate. I hope you get your surge soon.

Welcome to the new members, we don't stand on ceremony here so plunge in and join the chat.

Ok so I've now had 9 days of flashing smiley faces. According to the ClearBlue website I should assume that I won't peak this month. But had ewcm last night and the past 3 days. Didn't have any cm around my usual ovulation days. Wtf is wrong with me. :-(

Hi everyone.

Doom are you taking any new supplements or anything this month? If you are stressed tat might make you ov late.

I took b6 complex last cycle but it made me feel ill and lethargic so I stopped it the day af came. I have been very stressed this month too.
