Hi hi, jumping over from the Jan bus. AF arrived today a day late - was feeling a bit hopeful this morning then surprisingly crushed.

CD 1

I'm using natural cycles which tells me I have a shorter than normal cycle at 25 days. It's hard to get used to as I was previously on POP and didn't have periods for years. Ordered some pre-seed and more opks. Then realised DP is due to be on-call for half my fertile week this month. Noooo!

sophherts · 11/01/2018 14:30

@puppyl0ve I'm only cd2! I'll start opk's cd12 probably as I tend to ov around cd15-18. Won't be poas until 9th/10th Feb!

sophherts · 11/01/2018 14:32

I've just had lunch with my sister in law & her 8 week old twins (my niece & nephew) who are all amazing but couldn't help but feel v sad when I left. If I hadn't had a mc I'd be 5 months by now but as it is af is here & im onto another cycle. Ugh, TTC is a bitch sometimes

Bearlove · 11/01/2018 15:04

If I ovulate on day 8/9 when can I test? I did one this morning and it was negative.

puppyl0ve · 11/01/2018 17:36

Sorry @sophherts that was insensitive of me...I don't know how I made that mistake, I do apologise. I hope you had a nice lunch with your SIL. It's completely understandable that you feel sad. Going through a mc must be truly awful and I'm sure you can't help but think 'what if...' especially as you have AF at the moment. How far along were you when it happened?

@bearlove It depends on the sensitivity of the test. How many DPO are you now?

Bearlove · 11/01/2018 17:54

@puppyl0ve at a guess around 11? Iv got mega lower back pain today but don't know if that's something or not

sophherts · 11/01/2018 18:35

@puppyl0ve that's ok! There's so many people on the bus it can be hard to keep track! I was 6 wks along at the mc, still struggling with it most days especially as it's screwed up my af. My cycles are all over the place now 😫

Owlpatrol · 11/01/2018 18:52

Sending baby dust @sophherts my sister in law fell pregnant at 45! Naturally! And she was telling me about it the other week and I felt exactly the same as you. I'm 29 ffs why can't i get pregnant!

Owlpatrol · 11/01/2018 18:52

Thinking maybe I haven't ovulated yet. Still going to keep testing

Feb Bus! Fingers crossed
sophherts · 11/01/2018 19:16

@Owlpatrol it seems like everyone else is pregnant or having babies at the moment! Fx you get your positive opk soon 🤞🏼

piglet81 · 12/01/2018 12:24

It's hard, isn't it? My sister is expecting a baby any time now and after I miscarried in September I was so sure I'd be pregnant again by the time her baby came along. Ho hum.

CD12 here but we didn't manage to dtd last night as DH was out. Fx for tonight instead!

Wishing everyone luck this month Smile

Owlpatrol · 12/01/2018 13:03

Same here managed to dtd last night

Still getting negative opks hoping it will be poss tomorrow so I can do smep fx

Soooooo glad it's the weekend. This week has been a killer at work

Going to try opks this time, poor DH was slightly baffled by the concept bless him!!

bubblybrit · 12/01/2018 19:31

@puppyl0ve. I’m in a similar position to sophherts. Will start using OPKs from CD10 (I’m currently CD8) as my cycles vary between 30-36 days. Hence I’d rather poas early than miss my surge. Holding off testing until af late as I got a little obsessed last cycle, convinced myself I was pg and then felt so disappointed with af arrived!

Mimilicious013 · 13/01/2018 07:19

Still breastfeeding ds. Totally random cycles and the mother f*cker that is AF just reared her ugly head at day 24!

Owlpatrol · 14/01/2018 08:49

Hello newbies! Well I'm thinking I'm not ovulating this month randomly because still no opk...of I've missed it as sore boobs....which means I'm out here's what happened
Cd10 almost positive opk
Dtd cd11
Cd12 13 and now 14 negative opks
Not dtd again yet was going to yesterday but too tired
Oddly got spots on my face which is early cycle so either off cleansing from diet or I ovulated early. I'll keep testing and see what happens as this hasn't happened before!

FruitandNutty · 14/01/2018 09:50

@owlpatrol don’t worry hun, I didn’t get a +opk until day 20 something this month! And I had very near positives (what I thought were) earlier in my cycle. I think LH can fluctuate throughout the month so until you see as dark or darker lines then I would say you maybe haven’t Od yet..

FruitandNutty · 14/01/2018 09:54

I’m joining Feb bus sadly, but so appreciate that we’re all in this together!

@FruitandNutty yep went back to check my opk and darker this morning so fx for this afternoon. Been testing twice a day to catch it! It's my 30th in March can't believe it! Mum keeps asking me what plans to do but I'm like....i just want to be pregnant!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 14/01/2018 10:12

Fairly sure I will be joining you guys next weekend - insomnia last night and I had that this time last month. My cm is also similar too:-(

sophherts · 14/01/2018 11:32

@Owlpatrol I turned 30 last summer & I had the same thoughts! Turns out I did get pg about a month later but lost it. Now I'm just praying that at some point in 2018 I get to have a baby!

Owlpatrol · 15/01/2018 07:34

Whahooo finally got a positive opk yesterday night. Thought I was broken this month! Fx for lots of bding

sophherts · 15/01/2018 07:45

@Owlpatrol yay! Have fun!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 15/01/2018 09:48

@Owlpatrol. Woohoo! I'm due in like a weeks time, supposedly lol. I got tonnes of watery/ewcm last night and dragged dh upstairs, just in case lol!
