Hi everyone,

I'm planning on giving Feb all I've got - who's with me??!

Hi everyone!

May I join you? I'm fresh off the Jan bus!

I'm 31, ttc no.3 and not quite into cycle 2 yet as waiting for imminent af after a bfn this morn. I suppose I am between the two buses as af hasn't officially arrived but I just know she's on her way! I had Bfps by this point with my other two children and I've also been sooo Ill right after ov and all over tww this past cycle. High temp and battered lungs, the lot!

Anyway, back to full health now and looking at trying again using the opks and temping. The only thing I'm doing differently this next cycle is not testing until I've missed af. Will be hard but I hate seeing Bfns!!

Also to add I have annoyingly long cycles, around 37-40 days so I prob won't ov till around mid Feb now Hmm

Hope all are well? Let's make this a lucky thread Grin

Tinkerbell2319 · 20/01/2017 07:52

Anyone mind if i join and sulk at the back of the bus?

I'm sooo disappointed am 15dpo and still no AF but got a negative FRER this morning so giving up on this month

Really strange length luteal phase isn't it? Confirmed ov with both BBT and OPKs too. Last month was a 12 day LP i thought it wasn't supposed to change I'm so confused ☹️

Day 21 blood test this month was all clear though so am apparently ovulating and hormones/thyroid etc all ok 😕

Anyway

Age: 24
TTC: #1
Cycle: will be cycle 7 but haven't officially started yet

HollyMay84 · 20/01/2017 10:43

Hi Tink and Chaos I hope you aren't stuck in limbo for too long and that something happens for you either way. Obviously I will have my fx for you both Smile

I'm hoping to get my nice red ff crosshairs on my chart tomorrow! It's been a while since I've seen them.

Only thing is we've only managed to dtd once this week as oh has been working mega hours. The thing I'm holding onto is the last time we got pg we only dtd once three days before ov! I don't know if it's delusional to think we could be that lucky again or just wishful thinking and right now I really don't care lol I suppose we will find out in about 2 wks time Smile I'm hoping to hold out until the 1st to test.

Originally I was due around the 4th but looks like I might have ovulated early for a change! Hope you guys don't mind me staying on this bus as technically I'm borderline Jan/Feb Confused

Hope everyone on here is good Smile

Carlotta82248 · 20/01/2017 11:00

Oh no Claire88 sending you lots of love, here if you need to chat x

Wingingit88 · 20/01/2017 11:27

AF arrived yesterday, hurray! So CD2. Hoping this is a short one, not another 7 weeker. Plan is to dtd every other day once I've stopped bleeding as we can't be sure when I ovulated. I'm going to try avoid checking CM and I'm not going to test until end of the first week of march . We are on it this month!

MrsC2017 · 20/01/2017 11:49

Hi everyone, was on Jan bus but ovd late this month so will be hoping for BFP on 2nd February and not 31st of January if one is to be, although was all over the place this month, have been tracking for months in preparation for ttc and then I start and nothing happens when it's supposed to happen, typical! Anyway I'm cycle #1
Ttc # 2
Age #27
CD 15 I think and I think today is ov day......! Hmm
So hopefully this will be our lucky month!

MotherofUnicorns · 20/01/2017 19:16

Hi everyone, just biding my time waiting to ovulate over here. Cd11 now so hopefully won't have to wait much longer. ....

Babycarmen · 21/01/2017 09:05

I'm on CD 15 and had what I'm pretty sure Is ovulation pain yesterday and this morning but IC OPKs have been faint/negative. Hmm thoughts?

88claire · 21/01/2017 14:05

Pregnancy test negative post miscarriage finally. So here we go again. Trying temping and OPKs to try and figure out my erratic cycle. My issue is the OPKs are always fairly dark!

BD for the first time last night and we are going to try every other night to see if that does the trick while I have no idea when I'm ovulating. Partner doesn't seem too upset about the BD situation....!!

OnNaturesCourse · 21/01/2017 14:17

Putting on my seatbelt on the bus now, 1 day past AF due date and BFN yesterday. Now a waiting game on AF deciding to arrive. Thought she had last night as i was getting the typical wave like cramps and felt wet 😳 but the cramps subsided after a few mins and i had nothing 😕 very frustrating. I am only 11 dpo as it happened late so i guess that could be delaying the witch 😭

Hello! Can I join please?

Age 33
CD 16
Ttc #2
Cycle 1 of properly trying
AF due 2 February

Not much chance of success this month. Husband has been on night shift so only managed dtd on cd13.
Not sure what's happened this month, been using clear blue digital opks and haven't had a positive result. Last month used boots own brand and got positive on cd13.
Will test again tomorrow morning I suppose.

MrsC2017 · 21/01/2017 16:10

I see I'm not the only one with OPK problems, they really are a mystery to me, can't figure them out, I have only ever gotten squinters or negatives testing 2 or 3 times a day yet I'm sure I ovd this month from other symptoms Hmm
nature sorry to hear about BFN Sad

AFireInside · 21/01/2017 16:22

Good afternoon, everyone. I hope you don't mind me hopping onto the bus.

Age 26
TTC #1
Cycle 3
CD 10
AF due 7/2 (on my birthday, great!)

I did my first IC OPK today, it was very exiting but it was definitely negative! Ive also been tracking bbt, which is up and down, so not very helpful.

BertieBotts · 21/01/2017 21:13

I'm getting very gloopy CM already so I shall gear up. Perhaps MrsG is right and it's a good sign! :)

OnNaturesCourse · 21/01/2017 23:04

Good luck Bertie

I have had some pink discharge today which is...making it harder to think realistically and keep control on my hopes.

Wouldn't it be nice if mother nature could just drop us a text to say "hey you're PG! "

AFireInside · 22/01/2017 11:48

Ok so it's actually CD12 today. Cycles are between 26/27/29 days. This is the OPK from this morning. I have no idea when I am going to ovulate so I'm just going by predictions from FF.
It is invalid, isn't it?

Feb 2017 bus is ready to go! TTC this month? Hop on.....
88claire · 22/01/2017 11:52

Afireinside

That looks negative to me.... Keep trying them and you should start to see a trend as they get darker leading up to ovulation Smile

Addtothechaos · 22/01/2017 13:06

Hello everyone

Was supposed to check back here and thank you all for warm welcome! I thought I was between buses and came on here as was sure af was imminent. Turns out I got a bfp this morning so must have ovd a little later than I thought!

Wish you all well and hope to see you just a few weeks behind me if all goes to well (fx!)

Good luck ladies Smile Xx

Congrats Addtothechaos. Fantastic news.

Roseandbee · 22/01/2017 15:13

Congrats Addtothechaos! nice to hear of another Jan BFP:) x

ttcnovice · 22/01/2017 15:22

Congratulations Addtothechaos Smile wonderful news!

MissMagpie · 22/01/2017 18:21

Can I please take a seat on the bus?

I am in the tww at 11dpo. Not taken a test but have no symptoms of AF or anything else so I fear nothing is happening this month. I had peak fertility on my clear blue opk 5 days earlier than last month so maybe I am having a weird cycle.

My stats are:
Age 34
Ttc #2
Cycle 8
AF due 25th Jan.

Addtothechaos · 22/01/2017 18:31

Thank you for the congrats everyone !

If all being well and nice sticky bean I fully intend on seeing you all on the pregnancy boards v soon! Will look out for your names in the next few weeks Grin

Much love Xx
