Celen 4 positive tests so far! Including a digital one yesterday which I had to buy as I really needed to see the word "Pregnant", lol.

Appointment with GP to get the ball rolling with Maternity etc this afternoon.

I am also starting to feel faintly green about the gills - but very low level, definately ignorable. But its reassuring all the same.

January is only halfway through ladies! Plenty more shagging left! Grin

Oh I'm so pleased for you Annarose, I know you were a bit concerned over the initial light lines. Sorry about the Envy

kittyvet · 14/01/2016 20:22

BFN 10Dpo here. Clinging on to hope that I ovulated later than my app says so potentially might not get a BFP until end of next week...of AF don't get me first!

MiniLop · 14/01/2016 20:34

Fx kitty, I'm just a few days behind you now Smile

firstgo1984 · 15/01/2016 09:41

gin I'm in a similar situation. Cd22 today. I have had a few nearly there's (which have been in the morning for me too) then lighter in the evening.

Got a new stash of one step opks that are a lot thinner than the old ones. None of them have been very dark at all.

We'll be on the feb bus at this rate!

stumblymonkey · 15/01/2016 15:24

Hey....I'm new and TTC #1 and on cycle one. According to a cycle tracker I use to track my periods I should have ovulated yesterday and today have a little brown-ish spotting....

Does anyone know whether it is worth jumping the bones of DP tonight or is it too late and not worth bothering (romantic I know!). Does the brownish spotting mean ovulation is over and done with or that it's the perfect time? Confused

kittyvet · 15/01/2016 17:23

Fx for both of us mini- it's been a long month this time :)

MiniLop · 15/01/2016 18:26

It certainly has kitty!
Welcome stumbly Smile I think the egg lives for 24 hours so if you ov'd yesterday you might still catch it if you DTD tonight! Good luck!

wetsnow · 15/01/2016 21:13

Day one of 2 week wait.
This is going to be a tense wait!
Yes stumbly get it on.

somethingfromnothing · 15/01/2016 21:52

I'm 6dpo and already convinced this won't be happening. Find the second week really hard to cope with. Just want to fast forward to next week Sad

stumblymonkey · 16/01/2016 08:49

So I'm in 2WW now....this is cycle one and we haven't really 'tried'...we both have low-ish sex drives so I'd be surprised if I got a BFP although one DTD was around estimated ovulation, really not expecting anything though.

ETD is around the 28th Jan so I'll be on the bus pretty much to the last stop!

In the meantime gearing myself up for much more sex next month...poor DP won't know what's hit him Grin

KitKat1985 · 16/01/2016 09:56

Welcome Stumbly. Wishing you luck.

Not much happening here. Took a test yesterday and clear BFN. However no idea where I am in my cycle really having jumped straight into TTC straight after coming off the pill without having had a period first. On the positive side that gave me the green light to complete the task of finishing the Christmas Baileys. Grin

FuzzyOwl · 16/01/2016 12:10

Hi everyone. Hope you are all having a good weekend.

I haven't kept up for a while so will read back and catch up. Just entering the 2ww now but feeling that I did everything possible this cycle. I think I ovulated on Thursday but possibly Friday (yesterday). Either way we managed to DTD on Monday morning, Wednesday, Thursday and yesterday. I just have my fingers crossed now and am quite glad that I can have a few weeks off until my fertile time next month. TTC is so romantic!

GinandJazzHands · 16/01/2016 13:55

Hey fuzzy good to hear from you. That sounds really positive so fx for you! Me and first are in whenarewejustgoingtobloodyovulate limbo. Everyone's updates are keeping me sane though! Hi there newbies! X

kittyvet · 16/01/2016 14:32

BFN 12 DPO or 8 DPO depending on whether FF got it right or not. Hey stumbley. DH and I are still recovering from 2 wks of EOD DTD following my delayed ovulation! Fx for anyone POAS over the next few days. Going to try to hold off testing again until Tues but know damn well I will be POAS every day

wetsnow · 16/01/2016 19:36

stumbly will be testing around the same time.

stumblymonkey · 16/01/2016 20:54

Fx for us both then wetsnow Smile

FuzzyOwl · 16/01/2016 22:06

Hi Gin Smile I had that concern at the beginning of the week. I had expected a positive opk on Sunday or Monday and it didn't turn up until Wednesday. Hope you ovulate soon.

SoozC · 17/01/2016 22:29

Fx for everyone! CD22 and 7 dpo for me (according to my app). DTD 3days and 2days before supposed ovulation. Had plenty of cramping feelings and some nausea most days last week but I'm sure that's just psychosomatic. Wishing week 2 of my 2ww would hurry past!

wetsnow · 18/01/2016 06:33

So I had been feeling achy and crop since ovulation... thought it could be womb related. Then Saturday I came down with tonsillitis. It's horrific. Totally floored me.

stumblymonkey · 18/01/2016 08:38

Ah....wetsnow....sorry to hear about the tonsils. Sending you electronic chicken soup and ice cream Thanks

wetsnow · 18/01/2016 08:51

Thanks.
Bit better today. Me and the toddler are going to have an easy say.

KitKat1985 · 18/01/2016 09:13

Hope you feel better soon WetSnow. x

FuzzyOwl · 18/01/2016 10:17

Hope you feel better soon WetSnow.

I am just at the start of the 2ww and really do not have the patience for this. I keep wishing half the month away.

KitKat1985 · 18/01/2016 13:00

Another BFN here. I wish AF would just hurry up and arrive so at least I know where my cycle is at.
