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!

Can I join! I got my BFP a few days ago on a FRER after having a mc last month.
I've just done a cheapy test this morning too and got a dark line.
Hope this sticks!!

Congratulations @Curlypop. Glad you're getting great line progression!

That looks great @curlypop congratulations x

Curlypop · 16/05/2018 16:47

Thank you @EverythingNow & @HidCat

Spottyyellowdress · 16/05/2018 17:05

Congrats to the bfps! Cd10, nothing exciting going on yet...doctors tomorrow to find out next steps of my blood tests!

EverythingNow · 16/05/2018 17:24

Good luck @spottyyellowdress!

1dpo here. Nothing at all to report. Not sure we dtd enough, only 3 x in FW, I know it only takes the 1 etc but still never seem to manage more than every other day.

DumbledoresSocks · 16/05/2018 17:44

Can I join please?

TTC #2
Cycle #2

1 mmc before DS. Last cycle was only 22 days, usually around 28. On day 23 now, no sign of AF but trying to hold out a couple more days before testing. I forgot how much the days dragged when TTC. Fingers crossed for everyone Smile

Owlpatrol · 16/05/2018 19:08

@Curlypop congratulations!!

Owlpatrol · 16/05/2018 19:10

I'm feeling totally poop this evening I've got cramps now as usual 1 week before Af due and I was sobbing in the shower. I know I'm in it for the long haul after 17 months trying but it's getting harder each month now. Added to that my blood tests have gone missing and nobody from the nhs can find them im really down about it and I don't know what I can do other than be 're tested! Just as I thought i was taking control of my fertility again.....

HidCat · 16/05/2018 20:21

@Owlpatrol so sorry you're feeling down about everything. I'm praying that answers and treatment can be found for you to be able to get pregnant.

Owlpatrol · 16/05/2018 20:36

@HidCat thank you so much x

EverythingNow · 16/05/2018 20:51

I don’t blame you for feeling so low @owlpatrol, I really hope your results turn up or they can be redone quickly. It’s so frustrating when things are entirely out of your control, which of course ttc sadly is. Flowers

Kentishgal · 16/05/2018 21:53

Aww owlpatrol I'm sorry to hear you're feeling down; having built up to getting the tests done that's really frustrating that they've lost them. I have fingers crossed you get some positive news soon.

goneswimming · 16/05/2018 22:24

I'm out! I've had a good cry, now I'm going to spend the next two weeks exercising a bit more, taking my vits and trying to get ready for cycle 3.

TheMagicTorch · 17/05/2018 03:53

@curlypop congratulations!!

I'm CD23 - on holiday in Florida with my Oh and parents until Tuesday evening so hoping AF doesn't arrive this weekend as due and will be testing once home. Only 2nd month of trying so will see what happens. Good luck all Smile

DumbledoresSocks · 17/05/2018 07:19

Bah! I'm out. AF arrived this morning. With previous pregnancies I've had implantation bleeding so there is a tiny glimmer of hope, but this feels like AF Sad

Congrats to everyone with BFP!

Keiki · 17/05/2018 11:34

I'm struggling. This is my 5th month TTC. First DC was an accident, so I'm struggling to compute how that happened, and why isn't it happening again?? It's hard work trying to DTD more often. Sigh. AF due in a week.

JustLikeTheySaid · 17/05/2018 12:18

Still negative tests at 10DPO so think I'm probably out now. Going to be really upset if I am. May buy a FRER tonight as I'm only using internet cheapies.

I know I should just wait but I can't...

MaGratgarlik1983 · 17/05/2018 14:56

Hi ladies. Well, my tests got fainter until they were negative, so I'm thinking it's another chemical. Never mind, at least I can enjoy some local wine on holiday! Or perhaps a faulty test? I've also realised how much I love DS and how happy we are as a family of three. So many things are just so much easier and DH and I can really focus on him. I think I got so hung up on the idea of him having a sibling that I didn't really think through the implications of expanding our family. Think we're going to take some time of ttc and just enjoy how we are right now. Best of luck to all you wonderful and supportive ladies.

BuntyII · 17/05/2018 15:12

Those of you with cramps, I'm not trying to get your hopes up but I got cramps with DS1 just like AF cramps. You're not out til you're out

Pudding01 · 17/05/2018 15:54

Thanks @BuntyII I'm really hoping it is baby cramps and not extra long premenstrual ones x

EverythingNow · 17/05/2018 16:32

Sorry AF got you @Dumbledoresocks!

Sorry to hear your news to @MaGratGarlik1983, I had a chemical last cycle. It’s so gutting!

@keiki, sorry you are struggling, I can empathise dc1 and 3 were unplanned Blush dc2 took 5-6 cycles. I’m currently on cycle 12 ttc4. Although I got lucky last month I lost it after 5days and I kind of feel like it might not happen again now.

@BuntyII I also had cramps in all my successful pregnancies. They were my only symptom... before the heartburn kicked in.

Spottyyellowdress · 17/05/2018 16:53

So turns out the phlebotomist labeled the blood tests wrong and therefore said my day 5 blood test was my day 21 and that’s why it was dissatisfactory - turns out my hormone levels are absolutely fine!

Curlypop · 17/05/2018 18:37

I'm sorry @MaGratgarlik1983 xx

HidCat · 17/05/2018 19:15

@MaGratgarlik1983 I'm so sorry. 💐

@Spottyyellowdress well that's a relief!
