flora mine have gone the opposite... just 2 days! i did xome off BC in november though and had some abnormal cells removed recently so probs just all messed up but hoping gp can reassure me that its normal!
Hope your cycle sorts itself out soon :) good luck

Hi all, jumping on from the January bus as AF arrived this morning, bang on time on Friday 13th the witch!

My stats are now:

Name: ttcnovice
Age: 23 (24 next month - getting old!)
TTC: #1
Cycle: #3
Cycle Day: CD1
AF due: 9th Feb

Going to be using Clearblue OPKs this month so I can get more of a definitive result (didn't get on with the cheap internet OPKs last cycle). Also will be using pre-seed properly for the first time. Fx for lucky cycle number 3, and best of luck to all you fellow February TTC commuters xxx

hoping this is the month , I am feeling like it is never going to happen

Hippychic79 · 14/01/2017 16:37

You're welcome flora :) hope you enjoyed reflex... looking forward to an update as and when :))) hope she was able to throw some light for you.

TTC - I use the clearblue digital ones too - much easier as they give you a definite ... too much guess work going on as it is without wondering whether the ovulation line is strong enough ;)

Hi Harry - try not to despair ... we all think this sometimes too ... but I'm sure it will happen soon Hun. Fx this is your month :)

Xxx

harrypotternerd · 14/01/2017 22:43

I know Hippy, at the moment I am going from it will happen eventually to it is never going to happen.

IamPoopyHead · 14/01/2017 23:03

Helllloooo!
Hopping on as we've just decided to start trying for our second. According to my OV app today is the best day for us so jumping straight in and keeping fingers crossed for feb!

IamPoopyHead · 14/01/2017 23:04

Hmmm, or should I be on the January bus? Hmm

OnNaturesCourse · 14/01/2017 23:08

can I pull up a seat?

I'm 27
TTC #1
Last BC: Dec 16
Positive Ovulation: 9/10th January
AF due: 20th Jan

I've got some symptoms but unfortunately most can easily be written off to my first AF in 11 years. (tender, puffy boobs. bloating. discharge. cramps. tiredness) so I think I need a Feb Bus ticket.

anniebambammie · 15/01/2017 02:56

Jumping on Smile
TTC no 2, cycle 2, cd 2... Was convinced I was preg last month, was nauseous, veiny boobs, sore back. Exactly how I felt with first pregnancy.
Also had a bit of brown spotting for a couple of days before AF was due- but then AF arrived in its full glory. Has this happened to anyone else? I've never had spotting before AF before!

Hippychic79 · 15/01/2017 06:54

Welcome newbies :))

Well I am delighted as af has arrived one day early ... I was fully expecting her as I've been struck down with cold this past cycle and only managed to dtd on cd 9 and ovulated on cd 14! I am pleased she is early because it means I am officially now on this bus and definitely in with a better chance this cycle :)))
A small part of me hoped I would have conceived but I knew it was a long shot so I didn't waste my frer's :)))
Here's to some valentines baby's ...

So here's my stats
38 on Wednesday:)))
TTC #1
Cd 1
Cycle 3

Xxx

AnyFarrahFowler · 15/01/2017 08:28

Telling DH that I'm pregnant on Valentines Day would be perfect. Fingers crossed for that, and for everyone on the bus!
We've decided if we don't conceive this month or next, that we're going to have a break for a couple of months. I'm trying to be very relaxed about the whole thing, but it's hard when you feel so ready and you're so looking forward to that BFP!

NordicNoirRocks · 15/01/2017 08:50

I'll join! I'm 37, TTC#3 (TTC#1 with DP) and I had the Mirena coil removed on 5th January. Using Ovia to track my cycle. AF due around 5th Feb.

Dolwar · 15/01/2017 08:56

Wasn't site earlier but definitely on the February bus this time as bfn yesterday about 12 dpo. To be fair I think I was working nights during my FW so e probably just missed it. Must try harder next month!!

Anna2006 · 15/01/2017 11:43

I need a seat too! AF turned up yesterday and is in full force today.
Age:27
TTC #1
Cycle: 3 (since mc)
CD:2

AF is next due on 9th Feb x

HollyMay84 · 15/01/2017 12:09

Hi newbies! Smile

Hippy I'm loving the pma! I hope you're feeling better after your cold :)

A valentines surprise would be lovely wouldn't it? I don't think I could wait that long to test though lol

So my temps are settling down and the opks are on the turn so fx I'll be in the fw soon :)

HollyMay84 · 15/01/2017 12:10

Saying that... If they're getting darker an I in the fw already? Never used opks before. You would've thought after nearly 5 years ttc I'd know this already lol

Hippychic79 · 15/01/2017 13:09

Thanks holly xxx PMA is the only way in my opinion... I've read a lot of self help books as I went through a horrible time a few years ago and I've learnt that thinking negatively causes negative things to happen ... i fully appreciate tTC is frustrating and sometimes it's good to vent ... but PMA feels better so I'm clinging onto it and hoping that like you I can hold out to test until Valentine's Day :)) possibly wishful thinking but we'll see how the month pans out xxx

IamPoopyHead · 15/01/2017 17:20

Hello all! I'm going to stay in here, I think.
So, I'm 33, TTC#2, cycle 1 on CD17.
It took us over 2 years to conceive DD so I'm trying to remain patient and not become obsessive...let's see how long that lasts.
Good luck to everyone this cycle Smile

Booboomoogooboo · 15/01/2017 18:48

Hi everyone, jumping on the bus and hoping there's a lucky seat at the back. Ttc #2, lost count of cycles now, definitely over 14 months though. Spotting today which for me is a sure sign of AF Angry so perhaps the Feb bus is going to be the lucky one for me. Gonna chuck everything at it this month, got some Conceive Plus so bring it on Wink

Booboomoogooboo · 15/01/2017 18:49

And best of luck to all the passengers on the February bus!

HettyB · 15/01/2017 19:00

Can I have a seat please?

Age: 30
TTC #2
Cycle: 2
CD: 5
AF due: 9th Feb

Baby #1 was a happy surprise so I've not had to do the ttc thing before. It drive me slightly mad last month so I'll be aiming for zen-like calm this month!

Hippychic79 · 15/01/2017 20:12

Welcome newbies :)))
Zen like calm sounds good .... this tTC lark can drive you nuts. Helpful tips welcome ;)

OnNaturesCourse · 15/01/2017 20:22

ladies any idea why my ovulation tests continued to show a faint line each day which seems to be getting darker... but not like control ? CB confirmed ovulation 9/10th Jan

GN06 · 15/01/2017 20:27

Hi girls,

Had something strange happen today. Apologies for TMI- feels weird telling it to a bunch of strangers rather than someone I know, but think between us all, we probably know more!! Went for a wee mid morning today and when I wiped, had gloopy/bloody CM, it wasn't bright red, slightly darker than that.
Period finished on Wednesday, and had sex last night (so may have been gloopy because of that!) anyone have any ideas on the blood though?
Thanks in advance x
