January bus anyone?

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.

officially in the tww, can test in 9 days, it's driving me crazy. I am not getting my hopes up

BertieBotts · 07/01/2017 00:22

I reckon Wednesday or Thursday so you should get crosshairs by Sunday fingers crossed.

Gah. All of the BDing last weekend gave me a uti and I think it's gone onto my kidneys :( currently feeling sorry for myself with a hot water bottle, the joys of out of hours tomorrow.

HettyB · 07/01/2017 06:24

Bubblegum I've got lots of ICs so I dont feel too bad testing too early! If I get a positive I'll confirm with a FRER (that's what I did with DD).

Not sure why I thought testing at 9dpo was a good plan - it was the most negative test I've ever seen!

Hippychic79 · 07/01/2017 08:11

Hi ladies - I'm just lingering on this bus but pretty sure I'm out this month as oh and I got struck down with flu throughout my fw which absolutely facking devastated me as I was using opks - I'm not sure what's worse ... not ovulating or kissing goodbye to your egg ... upset is an understatement actually! We dtd on cd 9 so I will be bloody gobsmacked if the sperm waited 5 days for my egg....not out of the question but let's face it... a.bit of a long shot!
Oh works a lot so I completely sympathise with you ladies - Missy & Power .... it makes timing the tackle so much harder ... grrrr!
Anyway congrats to the bfp's and thank you to rest of you for making me smile - especially the apps comments .... I completely agree -they're nice to have around but can really piss you off when you plan around their predictions and then you enter in a bit of data and it fucking changes the fertile dates completely... makes me so angry! Anyway rant over ... trying not to be negative but feeling very sorry for myself due to afore mentioned flu and I'm absolutely gagging for sex ... fertile window aside ... I need to get laid tonight ... cd 19 today and have not dtd since cd 9!!!!!! Arrrrrgggghh

I'm officially out :( AF arrived today. At least I have some normality back in my cycle but a bit gutted. Good luck ladies hope to see loads of BFPs x

trippingoverrainbows · 07/01/2017 11:48

Bleugh, I have no clue what is going on. I managed to wait it out until this morning to POAS and got a BFN. Today AF was meant to make an appearance but hasn't so it looks like my body is still trying to get back to normal after nexplanon Sad so looks like I'm out also. Sorry to all those that AF got this month.

Hippychic79 · 07/01/2017 12:24

Flowers to those with af xxx

Jellybabie3 · 07/01/2017 12:40

Hi all. Bit concerned today. Im cd22 2ww and have been feeling fine. Just been to walk to shops and got back boiling hot, sweating and had to sit down for feeling faint. Confused

Bubblegum89 · 07/01/2017 13:06

I had that yesterday jelly just walked 10 mins into town, felt horrible and nauseous. Then walked the 10 mins back and honestly I thought I was going to pass out, I felt awful and could barely catch my breath!

Jellybabie3 · 07/01/2017 13:24

Oh thats odd bubblegum i looked it up and cant see much reference as to why it would happen. I have cut back on caffiene etc but really havent done anything else out of the ordinary. Your testing soon arent you? I am going to test thursday as we will be away next fri for OHs birthday at a spa and if i get a BFP i wont be able to do much hahaha

Hippychic79 · 07/01/2017 13:28

Could be caffeine withdrawal jelly - I've had that when on detox -
Fx that it's more than that and your both upduffed xx

trippingoverrainbows · 07/01/2017 13:39

Hi ladies early pregnancy can result in low blood pressure that can make you prone to fainting. I'll keep my fingers crossed it's that 💜

Jellybabie3 · 07/01/2017 14:49

Oh thanks tripping although i wont get my hopes up too much! (She says) i already have quite low BP and am known to get very dizzy from really hot baths etc - hence why a BFP the day before going to a spa would mean i wont be doing anything actually in the spa! Really didnt think this through....although im sure OH will love the pampering

minime2016 · 07/01/2017 16:18

Fingers crossed for you girls waiting to test. Entering FW today-DH is delighted 😁 feeling optimistic and hopeful.

Jellybabie3 · 07/01/2017 16:41

Best of luck minime and enjoy....

Trytowin · 08/01/2017 01:10

Hanging in here waiting for FW. Bought some ovulation sticks to use this time but not sure when to start. I am on cycle day 8 ATM.

HettyB · 08/01/2017 06:54

Good luck testing today Bubblegum.

I have a feeling this isn't my month but will keep testing anyway!

Mummyme87 · 08/01/2017 07:36

CD7 today. I ordered a thermometer and some more OPK sticks for this month

Hippychic79 · 08/01/2017 07:43

Fx to all testing today xxx
Trytowin - I use opks from cd11 and I've got 28 day cycle. If your cycle is 29 days it recommends testing cd12, 30 day cycle test day 13 etc ... hope this helps xxx

Babycarmen · 08/01/2017 08:08

Still lurking about wishing you all lots of BFPs! Good luck to everyone testing soon.
Sitting in bed at 8am on a Sunday with the worst cramps known to man, oh be jealous! Hmm
FW starts the 19th but with DC2 I ovulated really early - as in days after AF finished! So will be BD as soon as she's gone back to hell Grin

HettyB · 08/01/2017 08:29

Another negative for me. I'll still test on Tuesday but I think I'm out for this month!

Wingingit88 · 08/01/2017 09:40

13dpo bfn. Pretty sure I'm out .

Kirsty8333 · 08/01/2017 10:08

Cd 6 for me. Will start using opk's from cd 10. We've just realised my fertile days will prob when dh is working nights so will have to try and dtd around that. Really want to try our best the month as we missed the day after ovulation last month.

Kirsty8333 · 08/01/2017 10:09

Sorry meant to say the day after positive opk not the after ovulation

Addtothechaos · 08/01/2017 14:27

Sorry to hear that some of your are out this month Sad Hope February brings good news for you all!

I finally know where I stand in regards to my cycle! Just got a super paositive opk (cracked and got some internet cheapies!) so I'm super excited as dh is not working away this week so able to give it a good shot! Woo! Had a few signs with the old CM (lovely)

Question-when do I start counting it as DPO? I can't remember if that's from today or tomorrow or next day? i assume I haven't ovulated yet as its sign I'm going to?
