Thought I'd start a new bus if that's okay as the Jan bus is getting quite full and I'm out of the loop.

I'll start with me

Peak today on CBFM so should Ov tomorrow:-)
AF due 16/1

I have to say I'm fed up of this- we're using CBFM, softcups and preseed.

I don't know about anyone but me and DP are thoroughly fed up of having sex right now!! Although we're keeping it fun- to a degree. I wouldn't say we're dtd nearly enough this FW!

@BrownEyedPeanut haha almost identical then! I was ready to have another around 9 months I think so the last 3 months waiting to try have been hard! With regards to pranks I'm so chuffed with the two I have. I have a joolz geo and a more lightweight baby jogger mini

Prams not pranks!

The prams are all so different now, I've always had a coachbuilt or a traditional bouncy pram.

yep totally looking at new prams. getting way too carried away here.
i love the quinny zapp xtra in blush and grey obviously that would only work if it was a girl.
need a new baby car seat anyway because the one we have is 9 years old and i think they are only safe for 5 years so would def have to get a pram to go with it. i think dh would have a fit.

I've just discovered the cossatto wonder, especially in Bon Bon. Seriously beautiful pram.

Hi all. Joining so I can keep track of how you're all doing :)

Age 29
TTC #1
CD55 (?!?!???)

Only stopped the pill end of September so guess my cycle is crazy due to that. As soon as AF comes & goes, I'll be using ovulation tests to try & get an idea of what's happening & to 'properly' ttc.

Those of you discussing prams if you have an older child or want close age gaps the icandy orange can be a single or double and has a built in buggy board so it doesn't get under your feet. I'm gunna try and sell my bugaboo and get a second hand one x

Funkyemzie I know I have the power of a fucking ice woman this month! I did load when 1 day late but BFN now I’m scared too as I don’t want to see it again! Just give me two lines already ... jeez!

I will test again on Sunday if af hasn’t shown, then I will be a week and 4 days late

I think it’s harder because when we are teens we are warned it will happen if you even look at a boy (okay slight exaggeration) that when it doesn’t happen the first go, second go etc it is a real shock and you think something must be wrong!

Me and dp both had tests done and they said we are fine so now it’s like running for a bus but just missing it every damn month!

@ImpatientMammy I got the joolz geo for the fact it converts to a double too

@StickThatInYourPipe I completely agree, you spend so long trying to not get pregnant that you think it will be so easy too.

On a different note does anyone know which is better preseed or conceive plus?

LowanBehold

I tried both with no results, reviews on Amazon seem really good on both though. I liked conceive plus more as it went inside with a handy applicator and that made me feel like it was doing more, if that makes sense!

Is anyone tracking their cervix position?

I thought I'd give it a go this month & it went from high/soft/open at ovulation to now being v high/firm/closed at 12dpo. Anyone had similar and got a bfp?

I tried preseed and got pregnant the first time I used it after 1.5 years of TTC#1. I don't know why I haven't tried it again from the start this time around but I am going to use it this cycle. I still have my box from last time but am worried it may be expired. FW is coming up so I need to hurry up and find it and buy another box if it is expired. FW starts the 9th and DH goes out of town 9-12 for work :( I'm hoping the preseed will increase the chances. I also drink raspberry leaf tea to promote a healthy uterus.
