something to lighten up this tense ttc journey

Hie allStar
I'm on the 11th cycle of ttc. Been on and off buses. Have experienced highs and lows and just had a moment remembering when I was new to msnet and understanding the acronyms gave me a hard time.i honestly thought bd meant "banging dad" 😂
Anyone else mistake the meanings??

They're such hard work at this age aren't they? My DS had a massive tantrum this morning because I wouldn't let him have ice cream for breakfast!
It does seem mad to want another one but I'm still super broody!
I think if it came down to it, I'd probably take Clomid again but it does scare me. Very unpleasant drug but it did result in DS, who is lovely (when he isn't having ice cream related rages).

Haha nice one. Just wondering, have you ever had af that lasted only one day.?

OP posts:
MagpieCursedTea · 25/04/2016 13:15

Not sure about one day, I've had spotting that's last a day but never full flow. I've had 2-3 day AFs before. I've also had them last for months!

Evening, hope u had a great day. We are getting closer to your bfpGrin getting excited.

I guess ttc messes up the cycles or rather we become more aware of what is happening. My af is usually 2-3 days but had one only for a day, so was getting hopeful. Just got a clear bfn booo, so next cycle here I come.

Sorry for the bfn. Are you certain about when you ovulated? Could be implantation?
I know what you mean about it feeling like it messes up your cycles, I see a lot of people worrying that their body is doing weird things. I think a lot of the time we just become a lot more in tune when TTC and notice things we'd never have picked up on before.

I'm getting a lot of cramps today and feel like AF is on her way. I reckon I'll come on tomorrow. Will be interesting to see what my temps are doing in the morning though!

Morning magpie. Hope af has stayed away and the temps have spiked. Slept rather early yesterday. How are you today?

Unfortunately it was the witch (just a short af) but it means I'm on cd7 and fast approaching the fw.

Heading towards the exciting part then!
My temp dipped down to the cover line this morning. I'm also still cramping so only a matter of time before AF appears I think!

It has and my temps are still down on the cover line. Starting to doubt if I've actually ovulated Sad I tested and it was a bfn.
How are you today?

Oh sorry, what could it be then dear?fx you are just testing early. Are you still using opk?
I'm OK except for my headache. Will be starting fw and dh is playing hard to get. Don't think he quite understands how short the window is.

OP posts:
MagpieCursedTea · 27/04/2016 17:51

Hope your headache gets better! Good luck getting your DH to do his job, I don't think they always understand the importance of timing.
I do use OPKs got my positive a couple of days before the temp rise, that's why I thought I'd actually ovulated. I don't even mind if I get AF but I'll be gutted if I haven't even ovulated.

Morning! I got a BFP this morning, I'm in shock! I went back to bed after doing it as I thought it was negative but it had a faint line when I got up again. I thought it might be an evap but I double checked with a clearblue and it was positive!
