I have had loads of investigations for irregular bleeding fortunately (which has resolved luckily!) including a laparotomy, hysteroscopy and a million smears! Luckily nothing dodgy was found and they have discharged me but I had concerns about conceiving so if nothing after 6 months they will see me again (rather than waiting a year). I think the long cycles are one of those things! I've got some ovulation sticks which I will use next cycle... I thought I would be laid back about the whole thing but turned into a symptom spotting maniac!

Carlotta I can DEFINITELY see a very faint line! Congratulations!!!!!

janiPop · 12/12/2016 19:28

carlotta that's a BFP! Congratulations to you and dichoto Star hope to see some more xmas BFPs soon Xmas Grin

minime2016 · 12/12/2016 19:33

TTC 1
Cycle 1

DPO 8
AF due between 18-25th Dec

Not feeling very optimistic about this month. No symptoms really so I am feeling very sorry for myself!

Bows85 · 12/12/2016 19:37

Oh, and congrats to Carlotta and Dichoto! GrinGrinGrin

Writerwannabe83 · 12/12/2016 19:48

Wow dichoto!!! Congratulations!!
This bus is so lucky Xmas Smile

DichotoMous · 12/12/2016 20:01

Thank you everyone. All aboard the LuckyBus! Grin

Lovechild2016 · 12/12/2016 20:51

Wow there is so much baby dust I can barely see! Delighted for you all hoping if the rest of us hang around you fertile people it will rub off on us!

Carlotta82248 · 12/12/2016 20:52

I'm totally convinced I'm just mental you know! We'll see what FMU brings, thank you for being my little support group in my phone FlowersStarFlowersStarFlowers

bluebell17 · 12/12/2016 21:00

Hello, I'm new to this thread but on a couple of others (I recognise a few names on here from others too).

This is me:
TTC 1
Cycle 3
CD 4

Last two cycles have been 34 days with an 11 day AF! And then 16 days with 4 days AF. So a little all over the place but only a few months after coming off the pill so I guess it's to be expected.

Hope you don't mind me joining in this thread, it seems like the lucky bus!!
Good luck to all.

janiPop · 12/12/2016 21:45

This is indeed turning out to be the lucky bus! Next stop bfp!

Lulu298 · 12/12/2016 21:53

Congrats dichotomous and carlotta! Fx for sticky beans.

Nothing much to report here. First day of FW and we're about to practise DH's resignation meeting...not that conducive to DTD methinks.

sarahboro1 · 12/12/2016 23:09

Well I think it's time I hopped on the bus again!

Ttc #1
Age 35
Cycle 9
Cd 15
Got an almost positive opk tonight so ready for ovulation!! The giant stitch in my side suggests this too!!

Hi to all the ladies I recognise from previous threads and congratulations to so many of you!!!

☺️👍🏻🍾🍀

Carlotta82248 · 13/12/2016 05:33

Hi ladies. Not sure these are any more conclusive and I remain sadly sceptical xxxx

Carlotta82248 · 13/12/2016 05:39

It won't let me post pics, any idea why?

FlaminFlamingo99 · 13/12/2016 06:43

If you are doing it on your phone make sure this is the only Internet tab with mumsnet open - I don't know if that will work but I know I have difficulties posting /typing with more than one tab open

Carlotta82248 · 13/12/2016 06:52

Tried the technical approach of switching phone off and on again but still nothing, I did a proper obligatory ring shot as well, I feel sad you're all missing out on another shot of a stick I've wee'd on (how weird are we!) x

Carlotta82248 · 13/12/2016 06:52

My level of anger at my OH leaving spilt coffee on the kitchen side this morning makes me hope I have a happy reason for being a psychopath Wink

Jellybabie3 · 13/12/2016 07:14

Still no AF here but cramping and a heavy feeling today so not optimistic....only 2 days til i can poas!

ThirdThoughts · 13/12/2016 07:25

Period still missing in action here, previous two cycles have been 34 & 35 days (though I have previously had longer) and I ovulated earlier this month so was expecting period as early as CD30-32. Today is CD 36... if it hasn't turned up by tomorrow morning (Wed) I've decided to test then.

If positive, that gives me a week to keep quiet about it and then surprise DH with the news for Yule. Which doesn't seem too long - I'm not cruel though, if he's down about TTC before then I'd tell him.

DichotoMous · 13/12/2016 07:25

I couldn't post my picture yesterday Carlotta. You'll just have to POAS tomorrow too!

Loxy4527 · 13/12/2016 07:32

ThirdThoughts I've seen a couple ladies saying they were going to surprise DH with the news on christmas, sounds like a fun unique opportunity Smile I'd love to if I get lucky this month but I'm worried enough about how I would get through my alcoholic Boss' work christmas party ("mandatory" drinking from 11am till midnight Shock) let alone hiding it from hubby as well! Would be a lovely surprise though Grin

HollyMay84 · 13/12/2016 07:56

Morning ladies, I don't know what would be harder, not testing until Xmas or keeping it quiet if a bfp shows up! Confused I need to hold out for as long as poss cos my cycles are still all over the place. Pretty sure I'm in the tww tho so let's just see how long I can keep from poas lol

Jellybabie3 · 13/12/2016 08:07

Just wondered, is it normal (or abnormal) to get cramping if you were going to get a BFP? I had cramping cd16-17 and cd 24-25 which stopped. Now on cd27 and just feel heavy ache down there. I know i sound stupid but this is only 2nd potential AF in 14years so do you think this is AF coming or is there still hope?

Jellybabie3 · 13/12/2016 08:07

Or this may be a stick your finger in the air question in which case sorry....
