lol Johno85 i forgot not everyone knows that word - unless your scottish. It will be a year in November since first starting ttc but realising its actually cycle 11 am now on makes it seem so much longer :(

Busy afternoon on here guys.

Welcome kaisha

Hope your OK momma, I'm sure it will be fine!!

Had a busy day at work, we are moving offices just now. Trying not to go overboard moving heavy boxes whilst in the 2ww Had more cramps and sore boobs today. Yesterday had a lot of discharge, underwear was well marked (sorry if tmi).

One week till test day... Everything is crossed

Welcome lucylou, I'm Scottish too so know exactly what you mean

Thanks seven and moonlight, feeling much better today. Going to a wedding later so am all excited, I love weddings

BoBo thanks for adding me to the list, how are you so amazingly organised?!

Good luck for tomorrow johno and shoney hopefully they are all good signs! All fingers and toes crossed for you lovelies!

Fx for Shoney and Johno!! Johno... I can't believe you haven't tested yet. Let us know how you get on.

Cycle 11 Lucy that must be so frustrating! Let's hope it happens soon. Are you doing the whole opking and temping stuff? Xx

Happy Saturday!

So woke to temps still high. Either 13 or 14 dpo now, this is a guess mind as this was my cold turkey cycle. Only temped recently as was curious to see if I'd actually ov.

Temp has never been this high post ov, am trying not to get my hopes up!

Still having cramps and sore fun bags. Honestly thought I was going to wake to AF.

I tell you something I honestly won't believe it until I see that bloomin line on that stick!

Hope you all have a nice day. mrs I love a good weeding too I have lots planned to keep me busy. May buy a couple of super drug tests just in case it's a BFP and I need convincing! X

Johno I thought you were testing today? I'm eagerly waiting! All sounds good so far!

Not much is going on with me so I have to get my kicks from you lot poas!

I had a day or 2 of symptoms (not sure what they were symptoms of though!) last week and now I have nothing at all.

I haven't dtd in 3 days either so I'm aiming for a mid-afternoon fumble when dh gets home later!!

Woke up feeling a bit sad this morning. Had a dream that me and DH were about to dtd and he got condoms out and decided that he didn't want to ttc any more, I was devastated and so angry at him 😢

Day 27 post pill for me today. Not much to report.

I have a wedding next Friday and if I was on a normal 28 day cycle that would be af due date, so think I may poas as I want to drink. Pretty sure it will be a neg but will do it anyway for peace of mind xx

Hiseven - yup doing the lot though gave temping a miss this month just to have a break but I seem to be ovulating (according to temps anyway)

Even been googling home insemination kits to give tht a bash n oh abit of a break as I know he struggles with feeling he 'has' to dtd x

Went to the toilet this morning and wiped to find blood. There was a very dark bit, almost black that was wet with cm and the rest was reasonably brownish. Toilet again twice, had a very faint bit the first, nothing in the second and underwear is completely dry........ See what the next 24 hours bring.

As I ovulated last weekend seems too quick for a period but after the pill anything is possible I suppose.

So excited for you johno! Will be checking mn first thing tomorrow morning expecting a photo of 2 lines!

Hope you a great day at the wedding mrscw and enjoy a few whilst you can!

shoney hope you get some answers soon, could be anything and it's surprising how much the pill messes with us and the crazy things our bodies do after stopping it.

3dpo for me (complete guesswork), nothing to report. A lovely lady on the ttc after mc thread was giving away her stash of opks as she's now 16 weeks so got them on the way to me and will defo start next cycle as I think I may be guessing completely wrong! My cycles seem to have got shorter (and ov earlier) since mc so be good to know for sure.

Johno - That's what I'm here for! I'm not really ttc I just enjoy spouting nonsense and cheering on my girls 😜 More exciting pg signs!?! You're such a tease 😉 Making us all wait is so cruel 😢! I literally cant wait for tomorrow morning - it's the highlight of my weekend 😆

Shoney - that's a bit odd lovely by don't worry too much 😊 Just see what happens

Moonlight - fx and wishing you a quick tww that flies by before you even get chance to get impatient 😄

AF got me, gutted!

Ah sorry shoney 😔

Sorry shoney

Wow bobo, the truths all coming out now

I really hope I've not set myself up for a fail and my body isn't teasing me before the red wedding arrives!!!

Arghhhhhhh. Nerves. Never gotten this far before- normally caved and poas then AF has arrived. Eeeeeeeek!

I promise as soon as I've poas I'll post the news.... At least I know if it's a BFN I've got tons of people here to cheer me up. Also if it's a BFP I can give everyone else some hope

Fx for you Johno.

Sorry AF got you Shoney.

Xx

Morning ladies. I wish it was good news but I'm afraid it's not woke to a marked temp dip and a bfn.

Need to have a little word with the reproductive system me thinks. At least I'll be surrounded by my best friends for the rest of the weekend and can forget about it for a bit.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Fingers crossed for anyone else testing soon X

Sorry Johno...😔

It all sounded so promising x

Aw sorry johno we were all so convinced, everything was looking so good... :( what a shitter. Don't count yourself out yet? Hope you have a nice time and a few drinks anyway.... x

Sorry to hear about the bfn johno and AF shoney hope you're both ok.

I've been absent for a while, mainly trying to take my mind off ttc a bit but have been catching up on the thread now.

I'm still at the very boring stage of waiting to ovulate. Think it's going to be another long cycle. I had quite a lot of ewcm the other day which got me excited but still no positive opk. I can only imagine my body keeps gearing up to ovulate but doesn't quite manage! Oh well. We are still dtd every other day so hoping to catch the egg whenever it appears!

Sorry to hear that, Johno. You're not out until AF shows though so there's still time. Fx for you. x

Johno - really sorry lovely hugs your body is now in my bad books for windin you up! Have a great weekend with all your friends and try not to think about it xx

Sorry af got you shoney, new
Cycle - new chance! 😊

Yay Claire! Good to hear from you 😊 Fx you ov soon but by dtd every other day at least you know you can't miss it!

johno gutted for you lovely! Glad you have plenty of distraction coming up x

Im cd5 cycle 2 now, maybe too relaxed, been rubbish at taking my vitamins since AF arrived as I know I'm not growing a bean but that's not the point lol!

Hi ladies, aw sorry for bfn Johno and AF Shoney! At least you have loads to distract you Johno. Get pissed and enjoy yourself lovely xx Been missing in action the past week but have honestly been in histerics laughing at all your posts just there with a cuppa in hand! Yous do make me smile!! Who is next to test?? Ooh thank you to all of you for the lovely comments about my gp appointment. Got my day 21 bloods on thurs (actually day 27) and hubby has his 'fun in a cup' () appointment on Tuesday! Bobo when is your appointment doll? Hope it's not actually needed and your actually preggo'd right now!!

Had to laugh at the scunnered comment. I'm Scottish too so I totally get it!!! I'm feeling well and truly scunnered by this whole ttc business! However, I'm loving this cold turkey month and I can (hand on heart) honestly say that I've not touched an OPK once this cycle! Been dancing loads and I think I'm going to ov either today or tomorrow hopefully (going by CM!). Dont feel as pressured at all this cycle!! Love and baby vibes to you all!! Xxx

I feel sick every time I eat, I swear to God my body is playing evil tricks on me as I cannot be pregnant. I actually felt like I was going to be sick after dinner last night. Might have to go to drs if it keeps up for much longer as I'm starting to get really worried. Going out for date night tonight so looking forward to some and some relaxed dtd without any pressure of baby making as I've already ovd.

Fx for ov soon claire

Good luck with the tests cookie and let us know how they all go. Fx you catch the egg this month before any further tests needed.

I can join you in the rubbish-at-taking-vitamins club piehunter! I used to take my pregnacare everyday without fail but now i always forget 😣

Really pleased this cycle is going well for you Cookie 😄 Fx for ov in the next couple days lovely!! And hopefully your day 21 bloods go well too 😊 Is it giving you hope having tests or does it worry you? My appointment is on the 6th so I'll either be pg or have af let's face it I'll have af most likely
'Fun in a cup' made me laugh haha!! 😆

I hope you're feeling better soon moonlight and enjoy your date night 🍷🍝
