Thought I'd start the January bus, anyone else hoping for their BFP to welcome in the new year?
My stats are -
Age 23
TTC #2
CD 10
Cycle -- hard to put a number on, been trying a year but have had two losses, 5w and 12w so not sure where to count from.

Thanks :) although I've had two MC in the last 6ish months so it's hard to get excited.

Also, my last two pregnancies I've had a metallic taste in my mouth before a BFP which I haven't had this time and this time I've got mild cramps, is that normal?

Jellybabie3 · 04/01/2017 08:12

MissyJones83 · 04/01/2017 10:39

Update from me

AF arrived today Sad I thought it would. On a positive not that means this cycle was 28 so maybe a return back to normal for me??? Who knows, so...

I think I've ovulated, which is good. Now have to wait a couple of days to be sure and then I'll be back in the TWW.

MissyJones83 · 04/01/2017 15:44

Fx bertie

Anna2006 · 04/01/2017 16:00

Fx Bertie for your cycle.

The last two days I've had raised temperatures after positive OPKs on Sunday and Monday. Just got to wait another day for my 3rd confirmed higher temp to confirm an looks like I'll be 3DPO tomorrow.

Why can't the 2ww go really fast? I am due to start a new job soon, I'm praying it will be on Monday and then the last week will go quickly!

Mrsbluebell17 · 04/01/2017 18:57

Thanks itsjustaphase. Mine hasn't got darker, if anything it's lighter so I don't think my luck is in. But will keep trying. Think I may have ovulated on Monday!

trippingoverrainbows · 04/01/2017 19:19

Congratulations username!!!
I'm still trying to peg it out til the 7th til I can POAS, the wait is killing me. I also have the cold and some sickness bug which is putting my mind into overdrive..but I'm sure any sick feelings are entirely illness related and not pg related Confused

Kirsty8333 · 04/01/2017 20:40

MissyJones83 · 04/01/2017 21:17

Yes fx to that kirsty and sorry to hear of the MC xxx we'll be on the 2ww together as well waaaaaa

HollyMay84 · 04/01/2017 21:18

Looks like a few of us will be testing around the same time so this should be interesting lol Grin

My stats:
Age: 32
Given up counting cycles but it's been 4 and a half years

From the looks of things I didn't ovulate last month so fx for this month Smile

I've not been on this thread for a while so.. Good luck to everyone who's testing soon, congrats to the BFPs and sorry to the ladies who got af

Kirsty8333 · 04/01/2017 21:45

fx for you too hollymay its nice to know there are a few of us testing at the end of the month. It's such a long way of yet. I wish I could stop wishing my life away!

Emz01 · 04/01/2017 21:49

Half way through 2ww and already trying to symptom spot when I told myself I wouldn't. I've got a few cramps and twinges going on which is what I had with DS, it's probably my mind playing tricks on me so not trying to get my hopes up.

MrsC1982 · 04/01/2017 21:53

The more the merrier MrsC

Maybe two of us will double our luck Grin

Bubblegum89 · 04/01/2017 21:56

Don't worry emz I'm exactly the same as you! Halfway through tww and can't stop obsessing over symptoms

HettyB · 04/01/2017 22:06

What's the earliest you think you can test without it being ridiculous?
I'm contemplating testing on Friday but I'll only be 9dpo... is that stupid?

Itsjustaphase84 · 04/01/2017 22:15

Got a positive opk last night and Dtd. It's negative today but still wanted to Dtd but OH not well....Im hoping yesterday was enough. A bit gutted,doesn't that sound so shallow... AF DUE 19th.

Tinkerbell2319 · 04/01/2017 22:22

I've got a test date finally!

Cycles have been sooo irregular (but 12 day luteal phase seems consistent it's just ov day that moves around/is often late) but had a positive OPK today CD15 so looks like this should be a normal length one yayyy! Easily pleased haha I'm so excited to have a normal predictable one and it's all matched up with CM etc so hopefully BBT tomorrow will agree too!Smile makes me feel like we actually have half a chance lol

Long waits for AF with BFNs are agonising too so hoping that won't be the case this month Grin

Test date: 17/01

HollyMay84 · 04/01/2017 22:28

I know what you mean Tinkerbell! Af showed up yesterday for me after 54 days and no O signs! I was sooo happy and got excited that my body actually did something lol The docs looks at me weird though when I say my cycles can range from 28-100+ days. Glad you got your test date, it takes the whole limbo feeling away knowing if/when you actually ovulated :)

Wingingit88 · 05/01/2017 08:34

It's so frustrating holly may isn't it. I have pcos so can never really be 100% when to test and when/if I ovulated.

I think I mayb he around 10dpo. Tested with IC Bfn. I'm still having a lot of backache and feel a bit eugh but I have a feeling I'm out this month . Monday will be CD 35 so AF may come, may not but that's probably because of my stupid PCOS not because I'm pregnant

Addtothechaos · 05/01/2017 08:39

Hi everyone, can I join? I am on cycle 1 of ttc baby no.3. Have a preschooler and primary schooler already! Done the whole temping/opks with firsts two but haven't done anything this time (blame Xmas!) last period was 15th December and I have long, unpredictable cycles so still looking out for signs of ov (which I don't think has happened yet!) X

Addtothechaos · 05/01/2017 08:41

Forgot to add in 31 and my kids are nearly 4 and 6 so bigger gap this time Shock
