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!

@bubblybrit. Sorry I didn't write back sooner. It's my DD's 11th birthday tomorrow (and Valentine's day) so I have been prepping for them. I have to get up at the crack of dawn to go for my cortisol test tomorrow too :-(

Again, I'm sorry for your loss. My aunt has blood cancer, she's being given chemo but it's only to lengthen time I think. It's very sad x

Hi All, just checking in and catching up. Re birthdays. I’m probably still guilty of picking and choosing months I’d rather have a baby in. Silly really given how long I’ve waited for this baby. DH gets annoued with me about it and I can’t blame him. Anyway, I like the idea of a November baby. AF seems to have finished and I’m grapefruit juice a-go-go. Making DH drink it too. Not sure if that’s meant to help but, ya know...solidarity and all that Grin Currently on frosty terms with DH so could make for an interesting FW. Also feel like I’m coming down with a cold. But still! Will try and remain positive.

Celebelly · 14/02/2018 00:43

Just coming to end of fertile period. Ovulated today and we DTD lunchtime today, last night, and Sat night, so hopefully we've given everything a good chance. Now the waiting game begins again!

bubblybrit · 14/02/2018 08:26

@LookingAtTheStars89. Oh I hope your DD has a fabulous birthday 🎂!! Just need to make sure you get some alone time with DH for Valentine’s Day 😉 xx

I’m sorry to hear about your aunt as well. It’s such a horrible time for all involved xx

bubblybrit · 14/02/2018 08:26

@LookingAtTheStars89. Also I hope that your test results go well! X

stegosauruslady · 14/02/2018 09:12

Jumping aboard, AF is 4 days late but a very definite negative test yesterday morning, so she is on her way I guess. I feel like shit, so I'm hoping she arrives soon.

Age 33
Cycle 2
Ttc #4
Af/bfp due fuck only knows!
Cd34...I never have cycles this long!

piglet81 · 14/02/2018 10:18

Hi all. Jumping aboard... I'm 36 and TTC no. 2. Cycle 8 (MC in sept).

CD12 here - dtd on cd10 and aiming for eod for as long as we can manage! Will test around 9 march if af doesn't arrive first. Good luck everyone...

zoClueless · 14/02/2018 10:34

Can I jump onboard too please? I have been around for a little while but this will be the first time I have joined a bus.

TTC #1
Cycle 3
Age 31
CD2 and AF due 18 March according to the apps. Cycle since pill have varied at 42 days, 29 days and 36 days so that date may change once cheapie OPK results start coming in. I seem to have ovulated 6 days later last month than the month before so not sure what this cycle will bring!

Have been taking conception vitamins and limiting alcohol (none when just out with DH and just one glass when out with others, mostly to avoid questions) Caffeine already limited as no tea/coffee - normally 1 can of diet coke a day is my caffeine hit although if no BFP this month next month may try reduce that. After reading this thread will also be adding some grapefruit juice to the next food shop!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 14/02/2018 10:58

@bubblybrit. Thanks :-) I will let you know when I get the results? Should be Friday x

lucylondon32 · 14/02/2018 11:16

6DPO really grumpy and weird cramping! I'm driving myself symptom spotting! When should I test? AF due in 8 days x

KnitKitty · 14/02/2018 16:50

Hi,

Jumping on board. AF started just as I was going to bed last night. I'd set everything out ready to test in the morning as I was CD34 yesterday.

TTC #1
Cycle 3
CD1
Age 30

First cycle off pill was 29 days, second was 34. Not temping or using OPKs, just trying to get to know my body and let it get back in to a routine, and doing the BD as often as possible.

Owlpatrol · 14/02/2018 18:33

@lucylondon32 maybe Friday?

I think I'm 2dpo now as getting negative opks have dtd twice this fw and hoping again for tonight for our last "try" as per smep but missed 2 times out! Anyway feeling positive this time....nipples on fire but have checked and I do get that sometimes! Wanting to test as early as next Wednesday 9dpo as I have drinks planned for next weekend x

Woody096 · 14/02/2018 19:24

Negative opk! Think I am about 4 days away from o, based on previous cycles. We are having a chilled night in with a waitrose valentine meal deal & obviously dtd!

@LookingAtTheStars89. Yes please do. Hopefully the results shed some light for you Smile xx

Hi all, can I join please? Was on Feb bus but no luck...
TTC #1
Age 26
Cycle 5
Been using apps to work out FW so far but not had any luck so getting serious this month and bought some OPKs. We’re also going to try SMEP, anyone tried it?

Cammy30 · 15/02/2018 11:26

FW starts tomorrow, conceive plus arrived today.....readyto go for the next week or so!! March is our month we can do this ladies! FX for everyone 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 xx

Lulemon · 15/02/2018 13:18

I’m so upset - I had ewcm 3 days ago but had norovirus so wasn’t up to dtd and I’ve been away for work for the last 2 days. I think I’ve missed my fertile window 😭😭

Cammy30 · 15/02/2018 14:09

Don't stress @Lulemon !! Those little guys can survive in there for 5 days! Plus you could have O'd earlier or later! Just keep going and keep your head up! FX for you. Xo

Owlpatrol · 15/02/2018 14:22

Trying not to read too much into it but had a small amount of blood today....could be implantation

LookingAtTheStars89 · 15/02/2018 14:44

@Owlpatrol. Eeek! Fx for you! X

stegosauruslady · 15/02/2018 17:00

Lulemon - that sucks, life gets in the way! But you might still get your bfp this month.

AF finally arrived today, so I'll be getting my bfp (positive thinking, right?) on my birthday... 24th March!

flyingplum · 15/02/2018 18:15

Good luck @Cammy30 :). I'm CM watching like a hawk...definitely um...improving, and have four days with the other half from today, so let's hope the stars align (Flo reckons FW not for another 10 days or so, but my cycle was much shorter last month, so I'm not putting too much faith...hence the CM hawk watch...)

SqidgeBum · 15/02/2018 18:15

Hi all,

Age; 26.
Cycle; 8 as of yesterday.
TTC #1
AF/BFP due 21st March.

I was keeping it simple up to now; OPK sticks, DTD around ovulation, but not enough really, legs above the head, crossing fingers.

After being very convinced this was our month (I had a number of pregnancy like symptoms), and moaning through the last few days, I have now a new enthusiasm for it all. I am starting on SMEP, primrose oil and preseed, and the DH is on vitamin C.

I am focusing on the new things I can do to help things to keep the hope up. Trying not to get down about it yet.

Fingers crossed for us all.

FingersXssd83 · 15/02/2018 18:22

Jumping on.

TTC #1
Age 34
Cycle 8 🙄

Getting a bit fed up with this baby making malarkey especially shagging so much last month and not getting a BFP. So much so it has crossed my mind to stop.

This month I'm going to try a few new things: grapefruit juice, evening primrose oil, temp (need to buy a thermometer), OPK and preseed.

Good luck everyone xx

Roobles79 · 15/02/2018 18:42

Hi how is everyone getting on? HSS anyone been tracking their cm? I noticed the consistency was like egg whites yesterday morning but dh and I were apart so not much hope now as it seem to have gone more chalky white is that a bad sign? Sorry if this is gross!
