The March 2017 Bus is waiting (impatiently!) in the station...

I couldn't see a March bus yet so I thought I'd get it going for all us early birds Grin

Here are my stats:

Age: 22
TTC: #2
BFP due: March 3rd

It's technically cycle 3 but we took last month off after cycle 1 resulted in chemical pregnancy :( so I'm eager to get on with it Grin

Anyone else joining me nice and ridiculously early on the March bus?

With my DD I didn't get a bfp until 13dpo. You're not out yet.

MrsGB2225 · 20/03/2017 15:07

I didn't get my bfp until 13dpo (and that's on a frer as well!)

Foggymist · 20/03/2017 15:34

10dpo would be very early to get bfp, wait until af is due ideally.

WantToGoingTo · 20/03/2017 17:29

Hmmm ok maybe there is hope! I got a definite bfp at 10dpo with DS. Wasn't even a squinter!

BlueSpottyTiger · 20/03/2017 17:30

Well im definitely out! Af arrived 2 days late, i knew i wasn't pg so im glad it's started now so i can focus on next cycle Smile
As my cycles are 26days i have 2 opportunities to conceive in April.. So im hoping thats my month.. if so i could end up with a christmas baby due the 24thDec 😵 or a baby due 18th jan, 12 days before my DD's 2nd birthday lol

Goodluck to the ladies that are still in! Grin

Sazwest · 20/03/2017 18:42

@BlueSpottyTiger I'm out also xx

WantToGoingTo · 20/03/2017 19:11

Oh sorry for af ladies, it can be so painful. But exciting for Christmas baby blue! Is it weird that I kind of hope I have a Christmas baby...

In other news I do have another thread but I got a near positive on an opk today (yes I am a poas addict!)

Itsjustaphase84 · 20/03/2017 20:01

Off the bus. AF arrived today. Onto cycle 5.

Cookie1831 · 20/03/2017 20:27

Sorry to those who are out, I am officially driving myself crazy haven't even ovulated yet according to opk but my right boob hurts and am really tired so am Telling myself am pregnant like an idiot and getting my hopes up (cd 30 first cycle off pill day 17 flashing smiley)

Cookie1831 · 20/03/2017 20:28

I would secretly love a Christmas baby too! (Not just because will get it off work!!)

Itsjustaphase84 · 20/03/2017 20:32

Christmas is such a magical time. I would have thought no way would I want a child at Xmas but I'm really not picky because I'm more than ready for another child. I'll just be happy regardless
I can't wait x

BlueSpottyTiger · 20/03/2017 20:51

I would love a christmas baby but i wouldn't want it to be born on christmas eve or day, As i wanna be with DD
itsjustaphase Sad sorry for af. And i totally agree.. it is magical Smile how old is your current child/children.
cookie what does the flashing smiley mean? I've never used them digital opk's.. Fx for you! Smile x

Cookie1831 · 20/03/2017 21:15

You are meant to get flashing smileys for high fertility days then a solid smiley for peak fertility just before you ovulate, I am probably just a weirdo high fertility but not ovulating yet loon! I did do a sneaky pregnancy rest last Friday but definitely a BFN

BlueSpottyTiger · 20/03/2017 21:28

cookie oh i see.. day 17! Wow wee... bet you tired of dtd hehe, That's a long time to be fertile!.. i wonder if they are working properly.. have you tried the cheap internet ones to see if they reflect what the digital one is saying?

Itsjustaphase84 · 20/03/2017 22:04

@BlueSpottyTiger I agree. Perhaps not xe or xd. My ds is 2y5m. I'm so ready for dc2.
Have you been trying for long?

BlueSpottyTiger · 20/03/2017 22:47

itsjustaphase Aww cute :) that was cycle #1 of ttc since having dd... so #2 now.
What about you?
I just all of a sudden feel ready for #2 .. the possibility of 2 under 2 scares me but i love the relatiomship/friendship me and my sister have and there's 20m between us

Itsjustaphase84 · 21/03/2017 06:55

I'm on cycle 5 now. Getting a bit miffed but hey. I usually opk and that's it and now I might leave the opks this month and just Dtd 3x a week. Try a more relaxed approach. Hopefully not much longer for us.

DuRezidal · 21/03/2017 06:59

It's weird because I used the CBFM for a few cycles and then the one where I became pregnant we didn't really TTC because I had run out of sticks and hadn't ordered some in time.

Motherhippy16 · 21/03/2017 07:14

Good morning. I'm 9dpo (I think) and I've been off work for the last 3 days. Blocked sinuses, runny nose, painful sore throat, chesty cough, dizzy and breathless. I had this last month as well in the 2ww. I know that progesterone increases mucus (yuck) production etc but surely it shouldn't be this bad? Boobs are kinda sore and having lots of popping and tugging just below belly button. Does anyone else have it like this? Many thanks and lots of love x

pebble82 · 21/03/2017 08:23

Another month not pregnant for me. Starting to get depressed now. I can't even bring myself to open the curtains. Not told DH yet as he'll make some lighthearted comment to make me feel better that'll make me want to scream at him. So sick of DTD so much. Might buy some opks this month. Hate how all consuming this ttc sh*t is. We conceived DD on cycle 1 so wasn't prepared for this time taking longer.

Itsjustaphase84 · 21/03/2017 08:42

Motherhippy16 I think it still seems v early but it's possible. I've noticed every symptom possible and Im still not pg.

@pebble82 I know exactly what you mean. I'm in the same boat. DC1 was very quick. How long have you been trying now? I've gone with the raspberry leaf tea/crystal bracelet approach Hmm this month. I just don't get it either. I just want my baby. I'm opk'ing and not getting anywhere despite getting positives Flowers

ReturnofSaturn · 21/03/2017 09:19

Hello guys!
We have just decided to start TTC. However I was due my period this month around the 15th/16th but it still hasnt come. (Negative tests)

My question is will I still be able to conceive in April if i dont get a period at all this time?
Sorry if this is a stupid question but in new to all this. Smile

Motherhippy16 · 21/03/2017 09:38

Thanks it's just a phase. Just getting tired of feeling so rotten and having to take days off work after ovulation. As I said I wasn't sure when I ovaleted so could have been earlier then the ov calculator I used. Have just ordered a fertility bracelet with a baby feet charm on it so thanks for the idea! Pma to all x x x x

Cookie1831 · 21/03/2017 13:16

blue not even been DTD that much to be fair twice a week maximum as OH away with work! I bought 2 boxes of clear blue think i might just stop when they run out as pissing me off, I stupidly believed my own imagination there and did a preg test, of course it was BFN doh! Previously coming off the pill had 8 week cycles so might just go back to doing cheapy preg tests once a week and see how I go!

Cookie1831 · 21/03/2017 13:18

saturn you could have course just depends if and when you ovulate some women get pregnant without their first real period x
