Hi mrsG my AF due date is 5/12

That looks promising mouse!

CD11 here - I was planning to start opks from Thursday as my Cycle app has my surge starting then and ovulation on Monday. But we'll see, I'll probably cave tomorrow!

We've managed to DTD yesterday & this morning - DH loving it so far, he'll probably be knackered by the end of the week!!

Binkybunny my obsession is out of control, 3 months done and I'm worrying already, I'm awful for winding myself up though x

Hi MrsG, my AF is due 21/11 and I'm going to test 20/11.

This is our first month TTC, it's already pretty much all I think about and I'm constantly symptom watching! It's exciting but so scary at the same time.

charley2016 · 15/11/2016 17:55

I'm guessing I'm due around Sunday... Cycles have been short since coming off the pill but last one was 28 days and I ovulated on CD14 so hoping its 28 again!! I've felt really strange, constant sore back and stomach cramps, cm, exhausted, hungry but full Confused tried a FRER today and negative so trying to hold out and hope it's because I do have a more steady cycle Hmm

Isthisusernamefree · 15/11/2016 17:59

Hi all, can I hop on?

26
TTC #1
Cycle 1 after 2nd miscarriage in 4 months :(
CD19
AF due 30/11 but due to mc, could arrive whenever or not at all!

I'm absolutely terrified of miscarrying a third time, I don't know where i'm going wrong. Luckily my Dr is a lovely man and has referred me to his friend at the local Spire hospital to get a few tests done to check, but he says it's likely to just be one of those things. Part of me hopes he's right, but the other part thinks if there's something wrong then we can treat it and everything will be ok.

Fingers crossed 3rd time is the charm!

RoseValleyRambles · 15/11/2016 18:12

AF has kicked me off the November bus. Bossy old *. So here I am with you lovely ladies! Third time lucky...

TTC #1
Cd 2
Cycle #3
Af due 9/12 ( but she arrived 5 days early this month, so who knows?)

minime2016 · 15/11/2016 19:22

Mrs G Ovia tells me af is due 28/11 testing 24/11 (thought will probably be testing before then. Smile) 2/3 dpo and I've got backache and af type feeling in legs and lower abdomen...Hmm

Bows85 · 15/11/2016 19:35

Thanks for organising the list, MrsG!
Ovia has rejigged my CDs as I thought a very light AF had arrived last Wednesday but I think it was more likely to be spotting (which I've never had before) as a more recognisable AF made an appearance on Sunday. This is my first "normal" AF since stopping the pill.

So my updated stats are now:
TTC #1
Cycle 1
CD 3
AF due 11/12 (according to Ovia, but who knows!)

pebble82 · 15/11/2016 19:53

TTC#2
Cycle 2
CD7
AF Due about 5th Dec ish (give or take depending on what my cycle ends up like). First cycle was 53 days after coming off cerelle pill.

Going to try to DTD every other day from Friday (cd10) to CD 20 and hope I catch ovulation. Could be interesting as DH is under the impression we're taking a relaxed approach to TTC this time and "going with the flow" (is there such a thing??) Not using OPKs or temping this time as with DD I didn't find them helpful.

pebble82 · 15/11/2016 19:55

Oh and I'm 33 (34 next week)

binkybunny · 15/11/2016 20:40

pebble82 we were on the same October antenatal thread 2 years ago I think!

pebble82 · 15/11/2016 20:42

Oooh hi!! binky

binkybunny · 15/11/2016 20:45

Ah Carlotta so glad it's not just me. I accepted it as normal 1st time but I really thought it be more chilled out

pebble82 I also told DH we were being more relaxed but then he saw my recent Google searches and that I'm back on Mumsnet and he realised that it may not be as relaxed as I tried to tell him!

Tinkerbell2319 · 15/11/2016 23:01

Wow looks like we're having a hcg party on the 5th then? Grin

FlaminFlamingo99 · 16/11/2016 09:20

Did someone say HCG party?! I'll hop on this bus please! Grin

I've gone a bit loopy this month so you may not want to sit next to me though Blush

TTC #1
Cycle #9
CD 22
Cycle lengths vary between 28 and 37 days. Ovia projects AF around 29/11 but who knows.

Nausea and cramps since CD20 - cramps not painful as such but stopped me sleeping last night so I'm not in the best mood this morning. Have not had positive OPK but it's my first month trying them and I only have enough for 1 a day this cycle for I've probably missed it now based on symptoms. Have DTD at least every other day since CD9.

I warn you, I may become a nutcase in the coming 13 days before testing Blush

Best of luck to everyone this cycle!
xx

DrRBannerx · 16/11/2016 09:28

Thanks mrsg x
mouselove seems we have matching AF dates.. Testing same day maybe?! Exciting x

DrRBannerx · 16/11/2016 09:30

Ov should be due over these next few days. I've got a weak bladder (already at 24, aren't I lucky) so I can't hold for that long really. Will it make my positives lighter? I've just got in from work and I've held this week 2 and a bit hours x

TTCbabyN1 · 16/11/2016 09:32
