The craziness that is TTC after stopping the pill. On this thread we have 100 day cycles, do weeks of opks and send ovia into a fit with our ever changing fertile windows! Welcome.

[Sunnydays321]

Hi ladies,

This is the 2nd thread following on from

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2452018-Waiting-to-try-and-cycle-a-mess-from-the-pill

For everyone who is entering the madness that is Ttc after stopping the pill. Maybe to start the thread we could all post our stats, so we remember where everyone is at and don't have to check the old thread. X

Aaaaaah first how exciting! Very pleased for you

And yes, like chapman I'd also like to know your secret! Or was it just right place, right time?! x

Nothing different. Timing wise i think we dtd about 72 and 12 hours pre-ovulation pains. No opks as i had given up on them.

Just hope my breast biopsy results are fine now!

Woooooo first I am so happy for you!!! Such fab news xx

Omg first, huge congratulations to you! So happy for you! It's lovely to see that more of us on here are getting our Bfps.

Thanks for that helpful advice Lemon. If no bfp this month then I think I'll arrange an appointment with the dr. It's more the pain around ovulation that's worrying me now & I feel I have a number of the Pcos symptoms: Hairiness, erratic cycles, spots. Would welcome a scan for peace of mind

Thanks Chapman, it's great knowing we're in this together lovely! What cd are you on now? I know the feeling being in that 'boring stage' where it feels like there's nothing you can do! Xx

This would have been a 59 or 60 day cycle. Don't give up hope!

Thanks first, you give us hope! Did you manage to dtd a lot around the time of ov? I think I may have only managed once the day of ov and once 2 days before (due to the fact I thought I'd already ovulated weeks ago!!) xx

Congrats First! Lots of great news for you x

cookie i dtd on thurs evening and sunday morning. Think i ovulated on the sunday night

Hey everyone still lurking as I really hope to see you all get your BFPs soon! Cookie we only dtd twice in FM two days before the positive OPK and the day of positive so FX you will have caught it xxx

Congratulations first xx

Thanks Yvonne, that's reassuring to know! How are you feeling hun? Any pregnancy symptoms kicking in? I had the positive OPK on mon (but thought it was a AF/bfp sign and didn't think anything of it ), but we dtd on sun morning and Tuesday night. Ideally we should have done it on Monday- just hope it's enough! Xx

Ahhhh first!!! That's amazing. how many dpo are you? Any symptoms? What made you test? You give me hope! Xx

Evening all. Reassuring to know that you were still on long cycles first, I'm a bit worried about mine (50days average) but this has put my mind at rest a bit.

Was telling DH about this thread last night and how I'm getting the hang of all the acronyms. He asked me to read some out so he could guess what they were, and had me howling with laughter (though he wasn't taking it entirely seriously). Some of my faves included POAS = put on another sock, AF = Anne Frank (I have a horrible feeling this is how Aunt Flo will be referred to forevermore in our house) and BFP = big fat penis

Maybe you had to be there but it tickled me

Just spat out my Chinese there lemon at your DHs bfp comment- big fat penis!! Hahaha I think I'll play this game with my DH tonight and let yous know his response! Xx

Fx for you Cookie I'm sure that will have been enough you have been on such an emotional rollercoaster!

I've still not got many signs few headaches and backaches and my boobs are slowly getting sore I thought the crazy symptom spotting would stop after getting my BFP but I'm still grabbing my boobs to see if they are sore!! I even POAS again this morning just to double check!
*
Lemon* I also got my BFP on Tue with my cycles still crazy ranging from 64-40 days! I used OPKs this cycle so really worth it if you don't already xx

13dpo i think sunny
No symptoms! Not sure why i tested!

Congratulations first ☺ x

Havnt been on in a while just super busy 💜
Sorry about all those BFN out there and welcome new bees 💜
Hadn't got the time to dhd the last week but got serious heartburn the last 2 days ? Also getting a lot of CM also? Due AF Friday but am getting cramps :( hopefully it's not AF :( tender breast also my skin is gone back to normal after a bad breakout :) and I'm recked tired a lot lately ? Xxx

Thanks Yvonne, I'm keeping my fingers crossed too that it was enough! Feel like I've been in a 4 week wait now not a tww lol aw I bet the preg signs are reassuring! Have you phoned your dr or booked in with a midwife yet?

Shan, those signs sound promising! When do you plan to test? I have a short luteal phase so it will be a makes me if AF doesn't show by next weekend. Think I may test next sun with a frer at 12dpo (tho will probably still be using the ICs everyday!!) xx

Wow- major auto correct clip there l! That should say 'it would be a miracle' not 'it would makes me' xx

Cookie
I know heartburn and tiredness is symptoms but is loads of CM something
Also keep getting a lot of Salvin in my mouth? Il test the start of March cus I'm due the 27th so gona wait and see :)
If I did ov the 13th would it show up that quick?

Crossing my fingers for all of you on here. Off to buy another test just to confirm yesterday's positive one. It is a whole new world of worry now.

Ooo can we see your repeat test first! (not that I'm weirdly addicted to other people's pee sticks or anything!!) x

I would but it is a clearblue digital, so no lines to see!
