Have they been that short since you came off pill mammy or have they got shorter? I'm not really sure what to expect this cycle!

LittleSparkes · 01/07/2016 12:14

I'm testing on the 10th! I'm hoping after 7 months this is the one!

summerskittles91 · 01/07/2016 12:18

Hi Everyone, hope you're having a good weekend. Can I join in?

37
ttc #2
Cycle 11
CD18.

I've got cramps at the moment but then I always seem to have cramps - I think it's just that I'm over sensitive to any possible symptom having been trying for a while now. I'm on progesterone for a short luteal phase and probable chemical preg last month. Trying not to symptom spot but failing miserably, going to try and wait till 11th July to test.

How's everyone else getting on?

Mammyashy1 · 03/07/2016 14:25

Hi jelly welcome, how short is your luteal phase? Mines been 10 days the last 2 cycles and was wondering if that's short? But this is my 3rd cycle off the pill and I am thinking my body's still adjusting as I'm having a longer period this cycle x

Hiya waves

I'm testing on the 10th too - time is crawling by :(

Niks2026 · 03/07/2016 19:43

Hi all, can I join too please :)

I'm 28, ttc for baby #3. I've been off the pill since April but this is the first cycle we are actively trying to get pregnant CD17 for me and my estimated O said between 2nd and 6th of July. Never tracked fertile times before so we'll see how accurate they are. I'll be testing around 18th July, we are off to Disneyland on the 21st so that could add to the excitement!

Sorry if this is TMI but I don't have anyone to ask advice from! AF is due Thursday (I'm usually pretty regular). Last night I had quite bad cramps about 3am which lasted around an hour and then subsided to milder cramps (still got them today). Just started bleeding a little - more than spotting but not as heavy as AF. Slightly brownish and a little watery in comparison to normal AF - sorry for TMI! Has anyone else had this!? Driving myself mad with what it all means! Confused

BusyNothings · 04/07/2016 09:10

Hi jj I had something similar a couple of weeks ago. It only lasted a few days but I never figured out what it meant. Try and wait until Thursday and see how you get on

BusyNothings · 04/07/2016 09:11

Also hi all newbies!

I feel like I'm slowly going insane tbh still getting negative opks and my temps are everywhere. But sadly struggling to dtd due to VERY BLOODY sore boobs.

summerskittles91 · 04/07/2016 12:06

Hello everyone :) Hope everyone had a good weekend. currently on CD 7. Finally caved and bought pre seed to see if that makes a difference this month.

Good luck to everyone who is going to be testing soon! x

Jellyhead12 · 04/07/2016 12:15

Thanks MammyAshe. I have short cycles without the prog, around 22 days and usually ovulate around day 13. Not sure whether that's actually the problem or not but the prog has extended my cycle out to 28 days so hoping that's going to make a difference. I think anything over 10 days is supposed to be fine?

AngelBlue12 · 05/07/2016 19:38

Had a tiny pink spotting yesterday and again today and some cramping, also been feeling sick but I don't know if that's because I'm nervous/excited - still 5 days until I can test :(

Allaboutthecake13 · 05/07/2016 20:25

Hello all,

I'm TTC #1, cycle 2 and I am so confused! This month, I OVd on CD19 (I usually OV on 17 - which is late enough to make me worry anyhow) and DTD. AF very regular and nearly always arrives on CD29 (occasionally 30). Now at CD32 having had 8 days of sore boobs and no AF but did an FRER which was BFN. No idea what is going on, and can't help but feel disappointed because of course in the space of 24 hours I had manage to convince myself I might have a BFP....

Good luck to everyone else in 2ww and those testing soon x

LittleSparkes · 06/07/2016 12:11

AHHH! 9DPO CD 24 - BFN!

But I feel pregnant.
My Fiance thinks I've gone insane.
Plus I have a bloody sports day at work today (I hate forced office activities) and I'm too tired and bloated to win (I hate losing). Plus the team they have put me on is the worst.

How do I get out of this?!
Will be dragged kicking and screaming from my desk in 20 mins.

Allaboutthecake13 · 06/07/2016 12:24

Oh no - could you go big on hay fever related issues if it's outside?

LittleSparkes · 06/07/2016 23:26

Sadly not. Had to do it. Now I'm home with huge cramps praying it's not AF Sad

Hi there, can I join in please?

TTC #2

Cycle 3
CD 21

I'm a bit confused this month as to when I ovulated so I don't think we will have conceived - although a similar thing happened the month I conceived DS so let's see...

Jellyhead12 · 07/07/2016 09:40

Hi there coldofhands, welcome.

How's everyone getting on? I've had some spotting and cramps like you Angel but no nausea. I'm on a higher dosage of progesterone this month so not sure whether that's affecting me. Have you been tempted to test yet?

Did AF turn up cake?

Sorry you didn't manage to get out of sports day little! Hope you're feeling better today.

AngelBlue12 · 07/07/2016 14:38

Jellyhead12 BFN's so far :( No spotting now, a couple of cramps, still some nausea but i don't know if that's because I'm anxious!

AngelBlue12 · 08/07/2016 09:48

Think I may had had a very faint BFP this morning!!!

LittleSparkes · 08/07/2016 09:54

Am I seeing things?

Two lots of good news! Can't see anything in the photo little but I'm not really sure what I'm looking at, haven't used those tests before.

Fingers crossed for you both x
