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

Thanks for the tip yvonne ☺ gona try Wednesday and Saturday ☺ and you get ewcm b4 you ov? Sorry just for the all the questions ya must think I'm some dope 😅😅 just haven't clue about all this was never talked or taught about it in my culture now I'm married I can do what I like 😅

Yvonne1986 · 05/02/2016 23:04

No probs I've just spent far too many hours googling everything to do with TTC! I get sore nipples and EWCM at OV and AF two weeks later but everyone is different so you will get to know your own body xx

Cookie22 · 06/02/2016 14:15

Just wondering, is anyone else thinking of testing on or around Valentine's Day next sun? I'm being very cheesey but thinking it would be a lovely gift for DH if I got my bfp on that day! Would only be 11 dpo so might not be viable and would also be a miracle if AF isn't here yet due to my short luteal phase! Just a wee thought I had in my crazy TTC mind Grin xx

Poin86 · 06/02/2016 14:54

Ahh Cookie that would be great!! How amazing that would be. If im planning about May.. I'm hoping to do it on Fathers day cycle dependant!xx

Yvonne1986 · 06/02/2016 15:39

Cookie I would love to do that I can't test until the following week tho but FX for a belated valentines present for me! X

firstgo1984 · 06/02/2016 17:30

I'm testing this coming thurs before i speak to dr

Yvonne1986 · 06/02/2016 18:22

Keeping my FX for you First have you got any symptoms? X

firstgo1984 · 06/02/2016 19:01

Just very sensitive nipples and boobs a bit sore. Only usually get sore boobs after ovulation...

CM is quite wet and sometimes even almost ewcm.

firstgo1984 · 06/02/2016 21:13

I am more and more convinced I ovulated around 10 days ago now as i must be in my luteal phase to have breasts sore like this!

Think i dtd the day before so have a chance at least!

Yvonne1986 · 06/02/2016 21:38

It sounds really positive first do you think you will be able to wait until Thurs to test? Xx

firstgo1984 · 06/02/2016 21:44

Yes as I ended up doing a few last time then AF came. So I will try my best! On nights mon-thurs so that will keep me occupied. The soreness is as likely to be just pre-AF symptoms though. Damn pesky profesterone!

Yvonne1986 · 06/02/2016 22:19

I've just downloaded the Hay Game app it's brilliant at distracting me from googling all things pregnancy!! X

firstgo1984 · 07/02/2016 08:02

Boobs very sore this am (in a very different way to usual pre AF soreness) and feel a bit sick. Trying not to read anything into it.
11dpo.

cnchapmanxx · 07/02/2016 09:42

Morning girls! I'm only 7dpo I think if I defo did OV last week.. No symptoms at all my tenderness and boob soreness has dissapeared!
As my ovia app says I'm meant to be fertile this week aswell due to my period the other week I'm going to dtd quite a bit this week to cover bases just in case haha!
First they are very positive symptoms chick! Fx for u! Why don't U do a frer? X

firstgo1984 · 07/02/2016 09:47

cn i think i would prefer to wait until i should get AF if i did ovulate on 27th.
I don't even know if i ovulated so it seems silly to test early.

It'll take some willpower though!

cnchapmanxx · 07/02/2016 09:56

I know same here first I don't even know if I ovulated but my ewcm has dried up now.
Have u had any IB bleeding at all? X

Yvonne1986 · 07/02/2016 10:05

Keeping everything crossed for you First such positive signs! I think your right to wait tho I'm going to try to wait until the day after AF is due as I know from previous months testing and getting a BFN has made me so upset! My sore nipples have eased off now so I'm 3dpo and no signs or symptoms xx

Cookie22 · 07/02/2016 13:59

Hey girls, how are we all today? Any signs yet? Good idea about dtd next week too Chapman, best to just cover yourself just incase. Are you going to do any OPKs? I'm going to be honest & say I have zero symptoms (apart from some creamy cm)! Only 4 dpo but no twinges, sensitive boobs or anything. I'm hoping it'll make me less disappointed if AF arrives early seeing as I have no symptoms! Last month I built my hopes up too much so I'm trying not to feel too optimistic still hoping and wishing & over googling everything though Grin xx

Yvonne1986 · 07/02/2016 14:24

It's so hard isn't it Cookie I'm 3dpo trying to stay positive that it might be my turn for a BFP but then don't want to get my hopes up as I know I'll be gutted! Xx

Cookie22 · 07/02/2016 14:31

I know Yvonne, it's really difficult trying to stay positive and patient whilst in the waiting game. So many of my friends have recently announced their pregnancies and I just feel it should be my turn now! I just know I'll be so down if it doesn't happen this month, even though I'm trying to remain calm! Xx

Yvonne1986 · 07/02/2016 15:02

I know I really didn't know it would be so tough I have a hen weekend and my 30th coming up over the next few months so I'm telling my self as least I'll be able to enjoy some drinks if I don't get my BFP before then but in reality I know I'll be so gutted this month as I we definitely DTD around OV xx

Planeteer · 07/02/2016 15:23

Hi ladies. My tww is currently being spiced up by our bathroom totally breaking. Have been without a toilet or shower since Friday. Aaargh! Rage and frustration is currently my main symptom, haha. Apparently might be a week until it's fixed, so am gonna have to crash with friends for a few days. Really hoping we dtd enough last week but would have liked to try a couple more times over the weekend. Hey ho, que sera sera etc. Stupid plumbing!

Sending hugs and patience to others playing the waiting game.

cnchapmanxx · 07/02/2016 15:47

cookie no I don't think I am gonna do any opks tbh lovely it'l just mess my head up even more so just gonna dtd as much as I can the next week and hope for the best. My original AF date was 10th Feb before I had another one so if I don't come on by then il take a test if it's negative then il just have to wait until a week today to see if anything happens! My ewcm has gone and I have zero symptoms now does everyone have IMplantetion bleeding? On the look out for that now haha! Fx for us both lovely X

yvonne we are all the same desperately wanting bfp! I just love going down the aisle at asda and smelling all the baby stuff haha! Let's try stay positive doll!

planeteer hope your bathroom gets sorted soon nothing worse than no water! We went 10 days in October last year without heating and hot water was terrible! Fx you get your bfp think a lot of us are on the 2ww!

XXXX

shankate182 · 07/02/2016 16:16
