Thread 6! Wowzers! Welcome one and all! Group of weirdos, wee hoarders, covert opk or okp, depending on what your autocorrect decides addicts with a side business in cm management!

Post your stats and add your dates. We have a register thanks to kat, a resident piss stick queen runner, loaaaaaads of bfp'ers who keep us positive! We don't have rules, we love a good symptom spot, we try to stay grounded and not be hysterical sometimes we manage it aswell

But on the whole, we're a good bunch, especially bunch who is literally, a bunch. bunch

Declaring myself out!! Dr has confirmed that body is being a total dick and i am having another af this month!! Also got tild that if spotting/light teeding is still there in 4 weeks to go back... upset isnt the word for what im feeling right now 😢😢

Kathrino · 19/01/2016 15:03

We're exactly the same feef. We only really find the time to DTD at the weekend as we're both either too tired or still working late during the week. I'm not sure how we solve the issue other than just hoping everything lines up.

LaraG13 · 19/01/2016 15:12

Really sorry to hear that lauren. So Dr is just saying you've had a short cycle this month? Are you usually regular?

Sorry about your bfn zazzles. And yours too leonie

LaraG13 · 19/01/2016 15:20

kat nice idea about the grads list. There was also Drwhy, ShelbTa and Lanadel. Might be others!

Laurenowls · 19/01/2016 15:21

lara had my implant out 9th december and had a normal af 31st... but body is just wanting to be a dick now and is causing me to have another af 13 days after my last one ended Sad but got dutifully told by dr that body can take up to 3 months!! to go back to normal... just feel absolutely shitty even had a little cry!! Though dr did say that if it remains in 4 weeks with light bleeding/spotting to go back

Holly300 · 19/01/2016 15:27

Awww poor you Lauren :( hope you feel a bit better about it soon! So frustrating for you! Xx

Kathrino · 19/01/2016 15:27

Oh Lauren, I'm so sorry. That's totally rubbish.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 19/01/2016 15:36

I dl df, I don't get it, it's too confusing for my brain! So I Uninstalled it.

Sorry about the bfn'so and double afs guys. It's certainly a kick in the knob.

lauren what cycle are you on now? I'm getting confused between everybody! I'm trying to consider af as a good thing, which I know is tricky, especially when your body plays tricks on you. Flowers

Im cycle 2, cd 6, every other day dtd starts today according to Dh!

Okay we have 47 on our list and 7 BFPs (any more I've missed??) runner can tell us!?? That makes a hit rate of 14.89%...If choc is as preggo as she feels/we think she is then that's 17.02% so we're not far off normal, (and was it lower for age 30+?) and we are all on different cycles days/lengths and my statistical analysis knowledge cannot correct for that. So hurrah us. BrewWineBiscuitCakeStarChocolateGrin

Well technically this will be my third now and i'm gonna be about 3 days into it stark im just hoping body behaves itself from now on even though i've still got the sore boobs/sensitive nips that are doing my head in xx

Jamjar12 · 19/01/2016 15:49

Congratulations Bug!!!! SmileSmile

My favourite Ovia line is-
'You reported feeling emotional. Maybe there's a baby in there making you feel emotional!'

No, I feel emotional and you're making me worse!!!! Cruel, cruel Ovia.

twinkydink · 19/01/2016 15:50

I'm going to have to step off the January bus because AF is certainly here!! Absolutely gutted and based on this early AF Ovia has changed my fertile week to all the days when my partner is away in Feb!! So I guess earliest for me will be the March bus Confused

StarkyTheDirewolf · 19/01/2016 16:07

Bodies are bastards lauren if mine was normal I'd be waiting on a pg test for cycle 2/coming up to cycle 3, as it is, I'm only just at the beginning of cycle 2.

twink you never know, best advice I can give, don't entirely trust ovia for fertile week, it changed mine twice in December. Mydays app is much more simple and has been more in line with the results from my okp's.

OP posts:
LaraG13 · 19/01/2016 16:47

Sorry twink as much as we know it takes time and that we shouldn't get hopes up, it's still gutting.

I think it's stupid that Ovia does all that 'you might be pregnant' crap. It's just trying to whip us up into in a frenzy and I don't appreciate it! I like to look at a calendar of the days of my period and my (predicted) fertile week but that's all.

Confusedcat1 · 19/01/2016 17:07

So I'm 5-6 days post ovulation. I had ewcm (isn't that funny how it looks like eeewwww.. Especially as it is pretty gross)... Anyway, it hasn't stopped! The last few days it's just gushing (sorry!) any ideas? Or is it my antibiotics??

twinkydink · 19/01/2016 17:12

Thanks for the support guys! DP is really supportive and is all for just dtd every other day whenever we can. He doesn't trust these apps!!

Feefeefs · 19/01/2016 17:16

Sorry about that laurenowls that's miserable. I think starky is right though there some positivity in having AF lets you know where you stand.

Thanks katherino we've managed two days in a row of this week and going to try again tonight Shock knackered! But that won't always work!

Confusedcat1 · 19/01/2016 17:27

Oh and I forgot to say congrats to bug :)

Laurenowls shame we aren't testing buddies anymore but look on the bright side! Your body is sorting itself out ready for your little bubba :)

Chocaholic88 · 19/01/2016 17:29

kat . Without your lists we'd be lost! I'm just quietly over here thinking I have nothing to complain about really. Sorry for the BFN's and lauren if it makes you feel better I went 6 weeks without bleeding when my implant was removed last June, then had 2 periods in under 3 weeks, then 2 perfect 28 day cycles before going onto Zeletta. I felt vile when they first took it out and still get the weird stabbing pain in my arm I'm wildly hoping you know what i mean lol now and again (less and less as time goes on) which I guess is just my brain still expecting it to release hormones on time!

miwelaisjacydo · 19/01/2016 17:32

Hi all this baby making really is an art form isn't it. It's really messing with my head. Just the lack of control of it all. Am sorry I make no sense.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 19/01/2016 17:37

Hello miw and welcome. Don't worry, most of us spend a lot of time not making any sense here! You sound as if a share might help, please feel absolutely free to spill your guts Smile Flowers

Dubbya · 19/01/2016 18:39

Congratulations bug!!

Amazing list thanks Kat, sorry for af lauren and welcome newbies Flowers

I'm 12 dpo today, haven't tested yet. Been having cramps yesterday and today but could mean anything! Probably af arriving! No other symptoms - keep poking my boobs but they are their normal small selves Wink

Dubbya · 19/01/2016 18:39

Oops, actually 11 dpo!!

LaraG13 · 19/01/2016 18:41

kat we also had Bubbano1 get her BFP, to add to the stats. Where'd we be without you!

FXSkip · 19/01/2016 19:00

Ha ha yes Miw, Starky does mean that quite literally - I know more about random people who I've never met's cycles than I do about my own! Welcome to the thread and make as little sense as you want Smile
