I know a few people will unfortunately be joining me eventually so I figured I'd get this bus going.
My cycles are crazy and averaging 60 days and I don't think I've ovulated yet so I'm out for April.

Age: 27
TTC: #1
Cycle: #4 (month 8)
CD: #25

Not holding much hope for conception at the moment but I've got to wait until August anyway.
Such an optimistic person to start the new bus!

@spottyyellowdress you never know! how are you feeling today? I've only started temping this month so it's all new and I feel I absolutely MUST take my temp every single day to try and get a picture of what's "normal" for me, though my cycle has been different every month since December!

Spottyyellowdress · 01/05/2018 15:30

@lp17 That’s good levels of determination! I managed for a couple of months a while back and saw a pattern, even though it was pretty low all the time from what I can see from other people, but this month it’s the same as pre-ov temps were then...next month, I’m going to do it again! This morning was 36.2😱

Upsydasiy · 01/05/2018 15:38

@spottyyellowdress I'm actually enjoying doing temps as it's confirmed that I am ovulating, makes me feel much better about the whole process Grin my lowest temp this month on O day was 36.55 and highest (today at 4DPO) is 36.92. where are you up to in your current cycle? Is it too late to start a chart??

LP17 · 01/05/2018 15:43

@Upsydaisy when is AF due??

JustLikeTheySaid · 01/05/2018 15:47

@silverpenguin I think I should ovulate sometime this weekend or just after but tbh the clearblue thing is telling me it's already high fertility and I don't know whether that's a good thing or whether it means there is something wrong with me! I only used cheap internet sticks last month for ovulation so I don't really know what I should be looking for on this clearblue one. It says high fertility but the app says that is the oestrogen not the LH yet..who knows anyway.

Spottyyellowdress · 01/05/2018 15:48

@lp17 I’ve got 8 days until af is due, 7dpo, so it’s a bit late this month to get any real idea but might as well persevere!
When I’ve been consistent I’m anything from 35.9 -36.2 before ov then 36.5 after...I must be icy inside!

Upsydasiy · 01/05/2018 15:49

@LP17 this weekend
has positive OPK, CD 21 and 22.

ronniemipperton · 01/05/2018 20:18

I have the usual massive lurking-under-the-skin spot brewing which is a sign AF is on her way... I’d love to believe this is also a pregnancy symptom but I suspect I’m out this month Sad

Spottyyellowdress · 01/05/2018 20:20

@ronniemipperton I always get these too, and ALWAYS on the right side on my jawline. As if AF wasn’t enough to deal with without growing an extra face off my chin.

GreedyVegan · 01/05/2018 20:24

Cd1 again for me, I didn't bother to test I just knew I was out. Never mind cycle two and I'm going to try SMEP, also grapefruit juice

hiccupgate · 01/05/2018 21:03

Been failing to follow the post!! Now on CD7 and hoping to just go by CM and ov pains for a few months with DD every other day or so, and see how we go. DP says he doesn't want to just feel like a sperm donor...poor sod!!! Grin

Still waiting for AF here but have realised I get an unusual symptom for me period - nose bleeds. Had one today, been reading up on it and apparently it can be caused by lowering levels of oestrogen at the end of the cycle. Has anyone else had this? I didn't notice the correlation before now!

MrsM2017 · 01/05/2018 21:20

Ugh so I caved an poas yesterday - bfn 😫 ... Now trying to talk myself down as I'm only 9 or 10 dpo... according to Flo my AF is due this weekend so we'll see (keeping fingers crossed)

Aph413 · 01/05/2018 21:37

MrsM2017 Don't worry implantation is possible up to day 12. You're not out til the bitch shows. I'm due this weekend too, I'm 9dpo according to fertility friend, had a little pink spotting once today when I wiped but nothing since.
Also my boobs no longer fit my bra and DH has noticed, keeps commenting on the ridiculousness of them.
Fingers crossed these are good signs for me.

@HidCat I've never had that happen to me but I can kind of understand it.

MrsM2017 · 01/05/2018 22:00

Oooohhhh that sounds promising @Aph413 🙂 I'll keep my fingers crossed for both of us!

Babybeany · 01/05/2018 22:02

Bloody Thrush 2 ish dpo, if I even O’d (which I don’t think I did as I had no smiley faces). Can’t even cheer myself up with dbd-ing. It has definitely been wine o clock in the beany household tonight!
Cycle number 8 of ttc after a mmc last August. I need cheering up! ☹️

MrsM2017 · 01/05/2018 22:11

Oh no @Babybeany, sorry to hear that, that sucks Sad I'd say treat yourself to the wine!

Babybeany · 01/05/2018 22:24

Thanks @MrsM2017 I probably just need a bit of a kick up the bum! Tomorrow will be a new day! X

silverpenguin · 01/05/2018 23:15

aph413 interesting about your bra suddenly being too small, I'm sure that can be a sign?

I've had weird flutters and pinches in my stomach on and off all day today. Not sure if it's real or my mind playing tricks!

jaykaydee · 02/05/2018 06:33

Aph, that sounds positive.

I'm firmly sure AF is on her merry way here, my face now resembles a teenager's and not in a good way. I'm not wasting any tests now unless she hasn't shown up by the weekend.

polkadotjersey · 02/05/2018 07:08

CD 15 and got my first Clear Blue static smiley! Got everything crossed it happens for us this month because DH will be away for almost all of my fertile week next cycle.

Spottyyellowdress · 02/05/2018 07:27

@silverpenguin I’ve woken up with that feeling this morning...keep worrying it’s the beginning of a super early AF and checking! Feels like constant butterflies (could be too much coffee)

Spottyyellowdress · 02/05/2018 07:30

@silverpenguin and good luck with testing this morning!
