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.

Oops wrong thread Blush

Familyof3or4 · 09/01/2017 23:27

No, right thread!!!!!!!!

DuRezidal · 09/01/2017 23:35

next month I think I will do the CBFM and also ovulation strips too just so I can see what is happening. To be fair, I haven't given it a chance this month as missed two days of testing due to work etc so will give it the benefit of the doubt and start again next month.

Currently CD12 so expecting AF around 20th Jan as tend to have around 23 day cycles (always have done).

Cd6 - low
CD7 - high
Cd8 - high
Cd8 - x
Cd9 - x
Cd10 - x DTD
CD11 - x
CD12 - x DTD

shinysparklythings · 10/01/2017 06:31

Hi ladies,
It's been a while since I've been on mumsnet but we've just started ttc again so back I am.

Age 31
Ttc #2
Cycle:1
Cd: 24

Periods have only just returned after having my 1st baby (13 months ago), So not quite sure what is what yet.

Jellybabie3 · 10/01/2017 07:00

Morning all. Got BFN this morn cd25. Sad im gutted. AF due saturday x

BertieBotts · 10/01/2017 07:22

Congrats Family!

I am also symptom spotting Blush Woke up ravenously hungry which of course is a sign Grin it couldn't be anything to do with the fact I barely ate anything yesterday, nope Hmm

Jellybabie3 · 10/01/2017 07:23

Congrats family!! Xx

Addtothechaos · 10/01/2017 07:25

Morning all!

Congrats family! Wonderful news! And sorry those who are out the game this month. But remember there's still a chance if af hasn't arrived yet.

I am officially calling it 1dpo for me today. If we have timed Dtd right as I think we have then should be in for a chance. BUT even with that said, I don't feel very confident about this cycle as I've been lucky the two times before I feel like Mother Nature may give me a reality check! Confused

How do people feel about drinking alcohol during the tww? Got a big party coming up X

Charley2016 · 10/01/2017 09:28

Jelly I'm BFN again this morning too but I still think you're maybe just too early!

Add to be honest I've drank a little in all the TWWs. I get asked daily if I'm pregnant yet since we got married and if I didn't have a drink when everyone else is, they would all assume and it breaks my heart to say I'm not. That being said I'm drinking a lot less!

Jellybabie3 · 10/01/2017 09:53

Hi add i have also been drinking through 2ww. Not alot but some. I think someone elses advise to me was dont drink when its pink Smile
Thanks charley i am debating buying FRER now. I have 10miu but looking online these cheapies arent up to much...unless i am more patient and wait til later in the week. Advise anyone?

Charley2016 · 10/01/2017 10:01

Jelly are you used the Internet ones too? That's what I'm using as I swore I wouldn't waste money on FRER again after buying loads the last few months. However my periods always been day of or day before the day it's due and this is the first time I've made it to AF due date and not woke up with it. Sooooo if she doesn't appear today I think I might go out and get a pack today as I've heard the same as you that the 10mls often take a fair few days more that FRER to show as they are 6-7mls.

Jellybabie3 · 10/01/2017 10:07

Yeah i have a whole wad of those 10miu cheapies...i know im technically poas early but now i have tested and got BFN i have to know if its the test or not. People online are saying some dont show positive til 14dpo Confused i may go out on lunch break. Sigh.

Charley2016 · 10/01/2017 10:12

Which month are you on now? I get the same, once I start I can't stop. I think I ovulated a couple days late so really I don't think my period will come until nearer the weekend but I'm using the excuse of it's normally today just so I don't feel mad testing.

Walikingdeadfan · 10/01/2017 10:13

Hi everyone,I haven't been on here for a little while but getting pretty frustrated today.

I had some spotting on Sunday at CD22 and tiny bit more today and yesterday but not full AF. Could be implantation bleeding or early AF coming (I have had 25 day cycles recently). It is too early to test but can't cope with the not knowing and checking everytime I go to the toilet.

It's good to read that a few of you are in similar posititon to me. Best of luck to you all.

Charley2016 · 10/01/2017 10:15

Hi walking I've heard of tons of people on here having some bleeding or spotting so you might not be out! When do you think you will test?

Jellybabie3 · 10/01/2017 10:16

Cycle 3 for me. Came off pill in october but AF came and have had 30day cycles. Got positive opk NYE so assuming i ovulated NYD ish. Had lots of EWCM two days before that. You?

Charley2016 · 10/01/2017 10:20

I'm cycle 3 also. Came off the pill in July and used condoms until we got married in October. I get positive OPKs but never seem to get EWCM at ovulation. I've had it twice I think but it's normally a few days before my period weirdly (although not this month). My cycles since starting TTC have been 28,27,26.

Jellybabie3 · 10/01/2017 10:23

Ah ok so we arent miles apart. Im not sure what to do. I know i should be patient. I just thought we had cracked it this month. Dtd through fw (using ovia) as it was xmas and cant imagine when we would be able to achieve that again Sad

Charley2016 · 10/01/2017 10:26

I still have my fingers firmly crossed for you! I definitely think it's too early yet. We should try and both hold out until Friday! I don't even know why I feel good about things this month because we dtd every 2nd day up until the wed but I don't think I ovulated until the Friday or Saturday so we would have only have 1 or 2 goes. Last month we dtd every day and nothing!

Jellybabie3 · 10/01/2017 10:32

God its frustrating isnt it. Like bleeding roulette! Ok i will try and hold off til later in the week. All my fingers crossed for you too. We may just get our September babies yet. Postive mental attitude (with emphasis on the mental from me 😬)

Walikingdeadfan · 10/01/2017 10:32

Thanks Charley - I'm trying to hold of testing for now. Going to a friend's drinks on Friday night so want to know before then. Will try and hold out til Friday morning if I can.

Charley2016 · 10/01/2017 10:40

Haha I feel you on the mental! Going to be knicker watching all day now! I think I need a hobby to keep my mind off it all this week. Would it be a first baby for you both jelly and walking?

Jellybabie3 · 10/01/2017 10:47

Yeah it will be Grin

Emz01 · 10/01/2017 10:53

Hey girls, I tested this morning and got a bfn, gutted but not totally out yet. It was only a cheap test from Sainsburys and af is due Thursday. I still think af will turn up but if she hasn't by Friday I will test again then.

Seems like I'm in the same boat as you Jelly and just want to know if it's the test or not.
