Another month, another period. I was due af yesterday but had no sign but today I've had brown tinged cm so she'll be here tomorrow.

Anyone else out for March already? Feel free to join in my misery lol

Thingymaboob · 07/03/2017 17:15

Hello both! I'm very sad to be joining the April bus after AF arrived 2 days early. She is here in a big way this month whoa!
I am using an app to guide ovulation. I'm not using OPKs as they are stressful and I've never had a positive, even the month I got pregnant. Had a MC in October 16.
My stat:
Age: 31
TTC: #1
Cycle 3 (after MC)

How do people feel about Christmas babies?

Hey! I'll join this April bus with you - if that's okay with you that is :) ! I was a week late last month but AF showed up yesterday/today.

Hello all you lovely ladies.
I am BMI 30
(doing slimming world so currently losing weight). I'm taking 5mg folic acid and also a small dose of vitamin D. What vitamins etc are you all taking?

Flixy102 · 07/03/2017 18:41

I'm going to hop on here even though I'm not very hopeful!

Had Mirena coil removed 2 weeks ago after about 18 months-loved it but want to ttc number 2. Previous history of pretty bad PCOS so I don't reckon I'll ovulate any time soon but here's hoping!

Off contraception for a year but AF only returned in august (after breastfeeding DD)
Cycle 6 but very irregular length cycles due to PCOS and I'm driving myself crazy this time.

For example this month AF lasted a day and a half so I can't quite shake off the feeling that I could still be pregnant (even though tests would confirm I'm not!)

boatrace30 · 07/03/2017 19:41

Oh and totally happy to have a Christmas baby. Happy to have any kind of baby now tbh!!

Flixy102 · 07/03/2017 19:47

I know what you mean about the ov tests!

I had ovulation (or so I thought) pains last week, did a test in the evening which was about half way to positive, did another in the morning which was arctic white! So not sure if I missed the actual surge, or whether my body's just messing with me!

Have only dtd once since having my coil out too as I had a stinkin cold then gave it to DH. Pah! Need to step up the game lol.

boatrace30 · 07/03/2017 19:54

I'm starting opks this month. I had pledged to be chilled out and "let things happen". That's not working. So I have temp charted since December and am starting opks this months not sure how accurate any of it is with pcos

Happyasupsydaisy · 07/03/2017 19:57

I had intense ovulation pains last night. I tested y.day and was negative (cheap sticks!) And today had a faint positive and tonight nothing!.... --_They are the work of the devil these sticks im sure! .

allthecheese · 07/03/2017 20:25

I have just turned on 'Whitney - Fat Girl Dancing' (an insight into my awesome taste in TV) and she is preggo!

How is everyone pregnant?!

Re. Christmas baby. 6 months ago I would have been all 'I don't want a Christmas baby, and I don't want a baby born in the Summer'. But now I don't care. Just want a baby!!

boatrace30 · 07/03/2017 20:29

Yep, we had a sort of break in December partly as I was really ill and partly as we wanted to avoid an august baby. Now I'm like "what were we thinking?!". Though to be fair I was probably too ill!

Evening all!

Lovely to see you all on here (although I'm sure we'd all rather not be here!)

How are we all doing? I'm having a "feeling sorry for myself" night tonight. I've eaten a whole bag of Haribo already. I wish af would just start properly, enough with the spotting!

My youngest sister was born on Christmas Day. She hates it haha I used to think I wouldn't want a December baby but I feel like at this point, I can't afford to be choosy lol

Jumping on board!

AF not here yet, but DH and I were both ill last month so barring an immaculate conception...AF should be here this weekend.

Not fussed about a Christmas baby, I'll be happy any time of the year! I'm a December gal myself and it's the big 30 this year 😬 so I'm hoping Sod's law will come into play and I'll end up having a baby for my birthday instead of champagne! 😂

hellotoyellow · 07/03/2017 21:12

I'll jump on! AF has already happened. Might be in march twice due to short cycles though. Fingers crossed!

I'm a summer baby as is my partner (his birthday is the day after mine so I'm one day older than him lol) and my daughter is a summer baby too. I don't mind when I have another baby but I'm kind of wanting to get pregnant before May as that's when the lease is up on my two bed flat so I need to know if I should renew for another year or find something bigger! I've been told I have Asherman's Syndrome which causes infertility so my chances of conceiving aren't great so don't really want to rush in to moving to a bigger, more expensive place if I don't need to
