AF arrived today so I am now hoping for a March bfp.
This is cycle 6, ttc #2. Aged 32.

Never started a thread before, so hopefully you will join & we can symptom spot together!

Been a while so not fully caught up with everything yet but congrats to all the BFPs!

Happy Birthday @owlpatrol. Hope you get some enjoyment from that glass of wine or 2 after a tough time. I sympathise from a work perspective as I’m in the same boat x

@Woody096. Good luck for Sunday if you are still planning to test x

How are you? @LookingAtTheStars89 x

Owlpatrol · 03/03/2018 20:17

Thanks ladies everyone has been so lovely! I was hoping to dtd today but tail end of af pursists booo! Had a nice day chilling as the snow has prevented doing much xx

LookingAtTheStars89 · 03/03/2018 21:08

@bubblybrit. Hey! How are you doing? What cd/dpo are you? I'm cd 10, dtd cd5, 7 and 9 so far lol. Got an ultrasound on Monday and DH has an appointment as his sperm sample came back abnormal :-( We don't know in what way and to what extent yet though. Yet another bump in the ttc road!

How is work going? Fx for your bfp :-) I have a feeling I might be on a good few more buses yet!

bubblybrit · 03/03/2018 21:18

@LookingAtTheStars89. I’m good thanks. I’m CD 26. No bloody idea how many dpo as not been tracking very much this cycle. AF/BFP due anytime between 10th and 14th March Smile

Ah I’m sorry to hear that you are having a tough time. Hopefully it’s not too serious and you get your BFP soon. All these little bumps will make it even more special when you do get your BFP Grin

Work is horrific. Had so many problems due to the snow and they aren’t exactly understanding. I would seriously consider leaving if I wasn’t TTC! At least it pays the bills though lol xx

@bubblybrit I think I may wait until Monday so I will be a day late. Af always arrives exactly 14 days after I ovulate so will see if I can get through tomorrow without poas. Not feeling hopefully all the symptoms of AF are here 😞

@owlpatrol sorry it's in the last 30mins of it but Happy birthday!! Hope you had a fabulous day!! 💗

MrsMac1489 · 03/03/2018 23:44

How long do people leave their OPK cheapies to develop? I leave mine 10 mins and never get a positive? Do I need to give it a bit more time?

Owlpatrol · 04/03/2018 00:11

@bubblybrit same here 're the job front and this week has been hellish!!

@MrsMac1489 you should get a positive within a few minutes hun and they are usually stronger in the afternoon after a few houra hold x

FingersXssd83 · 04/03/2018 07:30

Had anyone who's ever had a BFP had intermittent sore boobs?

I used a digital OPK for the first time this month which told me I ov much earlier than I thought (annoying as we're on cycle 8!) and one thing that is different is that my boobs are extremely sore one day, then they calm down and then go mega sore again! They also seem to be more painful sooner.

Have been really good at not symptom spotting this month. Unsure if my mind/body is playing tricks on me!! X

@FingersXssd83 with my first pregnancy, I had no symptoms until week 6, but then my boobs were sore and veiny, then they went back down until about week 10 which did worry me but everything was ok x

Me too Woody096

bubblybrit · 04/03/2018 10:30

@Woody096. Sorry to hear that you got a BFN. Could you have ovulated later than you thought?

@owlpatrol. I’ve been snowed in since Thursday so have a pile of work to catch up on tomorrow. My work load is pretty heavy at the best of times so could cry that I have an extra two days to catch up on!

sodababy2 · 04/03/2018 10:40

Sorry @Woody096 hopefully it's too early for you.

I've got peak on my fertility monitor this morning. I was away from DH Friday night and last night but we DTD Friday morning and will do it as soon as I get home in a couple of hours!! Hope that's enough.

I'm pleased though as it looks as though I'm having a normal cycle after my CP last month. I'm CD 15 today and usually ovulate day 15-17.

Sadly AF has just reared her ugly head 😡 so definitely out! My next AF is due 30/03 or 01/04, so think I will remain on the March bus xx

EverythingNow · 04/03/2018 15:19

Oh no Woody096 I’m sorry to hear that.

I’ve taken leave of my senses/got bionic vision/dodgy batch of ICs. It’s the same every month!! I’ve taken two today and both have come up with the faintest line. Pretty sure it’s just me being able to see the indent line... again! Had the same problem with FRER last month! I’m due on tomorrow so if there was a genuine line I would imagine it would be more visible.

Pic attached. I’m not going to buy any next month, I can always see something and I get myself excited!

March bus - bfp’s welcome.
FingersXssd83 · 04/03/2018 15:32

Sorry to read about your bfn this cycle @Woody096

Boobs still sore at approx 7DPO. I have a 26 day cycle so a while to go yet.

This is the first month I haven't been going completely nuts in the TWW, hope this lasts for future cycles.

Good luck to everyone this month xx

BlueSarah · 04/03/2018 18:22

Congratulations to everyone with BFPs! Coming up to my fertile period, AF due 23rd. Here we go again! Hmm Fingers crossed for everyone still on the bus!

MissDollyMix · 04/03/2018 18:37

POAS this afternoon. 11dpo. FRER. BFN. How many acronyms can I get in one post?! BD (bloody depressed!)
