So AF got me this afternoon!! Trying not to get down in the dumps (although I just watched 'one born every minute' on catch-up and sobbed!)
Dusting myself off and hoping for better luck in April! A few stats:
Age-33
TTC-5th cycle
DC-1 DS (3.5 years old)
Anyone else at the start of their cycle and trying something new in the hope of a more successful month?!

Morning girls how is everyone?

I'm pretty terrible to be honest. We moved yesterday and both felt very low last night. Didn't really sleep and cried a lot Sad

We're saving to try and buy in London but have had to get another rental place as still don't have enough deposit to buy. It is so depressing. It makes me wonder if we should be ttc? Is it irresponsible in rented?

Feeling rather rubbish this morning Sad

raddersmrs · 18/04/2016 08:22

AF due tomorrow
cD25 today

raddersmrs · 18/04/2016 08:23

Sorry I'm cd 26! Losing track. At work now so will read properly later xx

With this ttc business tee anything is possible. You can get upduffed when u least expect so fx. Good on the pineapples!!!

Hugs sucha hope u feel better and no I don't think it's irresponsible to ttc. It will work you will see. As long as you can take care of you and the babySmile

sucha babies don't need things they just need Love. There's A lot of focus (from those that make the money) on what they NEED. They only need you. So don't worry about renting. We have two children and we live in a capital city so we have to rent, lots of people do! The house I live in would be €500,000 to buy and I am self employed so getting a mortgage is really tough. Don't worry!

Tee4me · 18/04/2016 09:12

Oh dear Sucha, sorry you're feeling that way. There really is never a perfect time, things always seem to work themselves out in the end. I'm sure you'll be all settled in soon and feeling more at home, it's horrible when everything's upside down around you. What CD are you on again? x

Thanks girls. I'm cd26 today. Can't seem to stop crying.

You're right about the renting / buying thing. There's so much focus on it. I feel like all dh's happiness depends on it!

I'm worried about how he'll react if I am pregnant. I think deep down he'll worry it will set us back further from buying.

CD17Star

Feel upset myself. I really have no idea what is happening to my body but I am bleeding today. Have no pains or bloating or any other AF symptoms as I would usually have. What I thought was mild spotting is full on blood today. Tmi, but had to wear tampon. EGWM still too so it's not pleasant. Surely I can't be having another AF only 17 days from last one? Really weird. Did an opk too and the line still dark. Says I'm ovulating still?

Confused, disappointed and a little bit worriedHmmSad

Footprints1 · 18/04/2016 10:42

Forgot to say, I'm also in rented, so I wouldn't worry. If you wait until you have money and house there will always be something else.. Never a good time to have children.

We just make do what we have and are still saving for house. Kids don't need much, just love as Jod said. We don't have all the latest gadgets or a big house but my boys are happy.

Hope the sunshine brings good spirits today as I certainly need something to cheer me up. X

footprints I was going to say implantation but then read you say it's really heavy. Was your last cycle really long?

Footprints1 · 18/04/2016 11:53

Yes it was 43 days my last cycle as I ovulated day 23 last month

Jod1985 · 18/04/2016 12:21

Maybe cos it was so long last time it's come early? It's confusing all right! Have you been checked for fibroids footprints

Footprints1 · 18/04/2016 13:36

Jod, no history of fibroids or anything similar. It's really puzzled me. I used clearblue digi ovulation thing as well as the cheapy opks so it's not like I was imagining OV. Had all the signs etc.. I can only just guess cycle must be messed up. Will see how long it lasts... And if AF appears in 14 days? (Or if that will be ovulation again? So annoying!!!

How you doing? Any the wiser to what is going on with u? Xx

Jod1985 · 18/04/2016 15:05

I mentioned Fibroids as I know my ex boss had them and they caused bleeding.

No clue about me at all. TMI but I was walking to school today and I felt very wet down there Blush I thought sure that when I got home and checked it would be the witch. Well it wasn't...instead it was a sizeable amount of creamy discharge Confused Just to add to my confusion lol! I did my ovulation test at noon (pack suggested that was a good time to do it and I held my wee from 8am). So it would appear in not PG (did an IC), I'm not ovulating and I'm not on my period?
OH and I am cramping, my back IS killing me, I feel nauseous and my left nipple is so sore!
I have to laugh!!!

Jod1985 · 18/04/2016 15:06

Today's ovulation test and IC test....

Back to SQUARE ONE CD1! Anyone want to spend April with me?!

Ummm so temptation got the better of me and I bought a test today (3days prior to AF due date). I think it's positive! A solid pink line and a very faint one.
