How bizarre kate I would have thought it would have shown by now. Stress can delay though...?

Has anyone experienced painful ovulation after having coil removed!?
So I was defiantly ovulating yesterday (first since removal of coil) which for me I can always feel and get mild cramp on whatever side I'm ovulating from, but yesterday it was like actual pain on my left side....Making me let out a "ouch ouch it hurts" haha.
Sex last night was also painful on that side had to be super careful was very hard to enjoy it when it was hurting :( :( seems to be ok today though....very strange!! Xx

Came off pill before Christmas. AF currently 8 days late, but getting BFN! Just want my period to hurry up so we can start again! Bit scared as my DS was born 9wks early due to pre-eclampsia and icp.

Congratulations Pixie!

Hi ladies,
Can I join in too?
Age:32
TTC #1
Cycle 1

I just came off my pill (cilest) two weeks ago. Not had an official AF yet and only really 'tried' once so far. Not sure whether it's best to wait and have a real period first? Is anyone else trying straight away after coming off bc?

Hi poppy
I conceived DD after being on cilest, I was on/off it a few months before conceiving I think I went a month without taking it before x

Thanks mummyto1ttc2, feel allsorts of cramps and twinges so it might be best to just hang on a while and settle into a cycle. Very new at all of this and feeling a bit overwhelmed and nervous about it all. It's such a big decision! Anyone else feel like that? X

poppy it is a big wave of emotion I remember with my first I wanted to concieve soooo badly then what it happened I started to get anxious and panic, but I was young and had a lot going on at the time.
This time round I am in a more stable relationship, very settled, lovely house, great job (as does OH) and I feel so ready to start again :) I have more excitement this time as it will be my partners first and feel so lucky I get to share the amazing moments with him xx

Ah that's lovely! Really hope you get some great news very soon :-) I'm married to my best friend, have a good career and my husband and I both want a family. We've talked about it for a while just feels surreal to finally be making (or trying to make) it happen! I always read about people feeling so excited to conceive and although I want that, just worrying that I feel so nervous and scared by it all. I have an awful habit of overthinking everything Confused X

You will be so happy when it happens all the feeling scared will go out the window :) hopefully we all get out BFP this month!! We all have different stories and journeys to get to this point it's so good to be able to share and talk about it with others! I was in a forum when I was pregnant with my first 6 years ago on the bounty website and we are still Facebook friends now! It's so lovely to make bump buddies to talk about all the scary parts and happy parts x

That's so true and thank you for your lovely message and support. Think we'll just keep trying then do a PT in a few weeks or so. Hard to know anything when you're not in a natural cycle so to speak. How long did it take you to ovulate after coming off the pill? X

MummyTo1TTC2 · 04/05/2016 20:03

I honestly can't remember as I was on/off it so much and back then I never felt or tracked ovulation. I've been on the coil for 3 years, had it taken out 2 weeks ago (I ovulated a week before it came out) the last 2 days I've been getting cramps so it's defiantly egg release week Grin x

Hi, can I join too?

I'm 37
TTC #2
Cycle 2 after mirena
AF due 27th (or 20th if cycles stay short)

Last cycle was very short 21 days, I've not had AF for 6 years though so no idea what my cycles are like. So I've decided to temp and use OPKs this time and see what's happening. Good luck to everyone Smile

Well this has been a rubbish month for dtd. After my first post DH continued to have gastroenteritis for the whole week and weekend. I'd given up hope for this month but then saw what I thought was EWCM on Tuesday so DTD that night. He's now gone on a lads holiday so I've just got to wait to see if AF turns up on 18th which I'm sure she will!

I haven't used opks at all but I think I'll definitely need to next time as I started off thinking I had an early ovulation but then when EWCM appeared that would make it roughly cd17.

Love coming on and seeing lots of new messages :) :)
Sorry to here that the witch arrived for some of you....fingers crossed for June!!
OH thinks it's funny to joke the last 2 nights....getting into bed and saying he is tired and saying goodnight haha! Such a plank!
Ovulation seems more painful this month don't know if that has anything to do with not having the coil in...? Xx

Sorry for those getting AF. Still a week to wait for me and I am going crazy with symptom spotting, over analysing every twinge.

Hello ladies.. Can I join you?

I'm 35, TTC #2, cycle 2.
AF due 2 days ago, usually 25 day cycle.

Using a CBFM though and no peaks this month, just highs so am trying to reign in my excitement.

Determined not to test until a good 3-4 days late as I can't stand the disappointment of the BFN's Sad

With my DD I conceived very easily and then had a MC, following that it took 18 months to get pg again so I remember all too well the agony and desperately trying ( and failing!) to be more relaxed this time.
