Hopping back on the bus too, will expect af around the 27th 28th.
Xxx

Congratulations @FiH81 so exciting to have a BFP on the thread!

Handhold to everyone waiting over the weekend, I always felt that trying not to test over a weekend was sooo much harder during my fairly long period of TTC!

Made a decent start, FW starts today and DTD weds and Friday so feeling positive so far.....

Kaye03 · 01/12/2018 16:29

Weird i had the same thing this morning, cramping, 10:00am had brown bleeding when i wiped. Then from 12:00 onwards nothing.
Secretly brought first response preg test, was neg.
Af must just be slowly coming properly

MrsLBear · 02/12/2018 08:13

@Crazydreamer I'm exactly the same as you! AF due around 27th +/- a day or two!
The wait for O day is killing me more than the wait for AF.
Who'd have thought baby making was this technical. Oh to be one of those people who just fall without even trying.

MrsLBear · 02/12/2018 08:16

@Kaye03 how did you get on? Did the witch show up?
I know how you feel though I had that around when my AF was due - felt so low. Don't think the hormones helped but the feeling of another month going by with no success. My DH tries to be supportive but he's so much more practical than me with "oh well we will try again" attitude.
Fingers crossed that we all enter 2019 with a positive on a stick!!

veeboo · 02/12/2018 09:43

Hi ladies. Hope everyone is doing okay. @MrsLBear I feel your pain...ttc is a whole new world of anxiety!!. I am waiting for AF to arrive tomorrow or Tuesday after a BFN on Friday. If I'm out then as my cycles are usually over 30 days, I'll be on to the January bus early. Trying to feel calm about it though. Hopefully 2019 will be our year.

ronniemipperton · 02/12/2018 11:06

Unexpected temp drop today on CD12 - I didn’t ovulate till CD19 last month, and CD24 before that. Temp drop might have just been because I had a few beers last night though. Wouldn’t mind ovulating a bit earlier, at least it means less waiting time between chances...

Kaye03 · 02/12/2018 11:10

MrsLBear, no af as yet. When i wiped this morning was nothing. But feels like af is coming.
When i read on other posts, people who had the same thing, where saying that af came a few days after bleeding like that.

Sleepingstarsmommy · 02/12/2018 11:48

So I caved and tested today. BFN but only 7dpo. I had the worst migraine and wanted to take something stronger than paracetamol. Still can't bring myself to take my proper medication in case.

Also have a bit of a temp and feel generally rubbish. Hope I'm feeling better by tomorrow as have important meetings booked in.

To the ladies who have had brown blood and cramps.. I had this with a previous pregnancy. Bleeding just as AF was due to arrive then nothing but cramps.. got my bro 3 days after af was due so either ovulated or implanted late. X

Fae28 · 02/12/2018 11:55

Back on the bus. Cycle 12/13. Having bloods this week. Determined to have a baby this time next year

MrsP4 · 02/12/2018 12:36

AF has arrived this morning a day early! Had loads of signs this months must of just been gearing up for a bad AF on the bright side.... I'm on the December bus a day earlier than planned! Here's to December Eat, Drink DTD and be merry 😂

feverbee · 02/12/2018 16:05

AF arrived a few days ago, on to cycle 5! Ttc#1, CD 4. Hoping this is our month! 🤞🏻

bunhead34 · 02/12/2018 21:41

Anyone else due to ovulate this week? Would be nice to have some buddies!

Seahawk80 · 02/12/2018 22:07

@bunhead34 yes! Due to ov Tues. how are you getting on? I've had a good start, dtd weds, fri and Sunday but now I'm worried I won't be able to do any better if it doesn't work this month! x

Kaye03 · 02/12/2018 23:59

I dont know whats going on with this month. Had no bleeding all day today, now got brown blood on pad.

bunhead34 · 03/12/2018 08:15

@Seahawk80 I'm due to ov thurs, dtd yesterday, so good start! Fingers crossed 🤞

lavenderbluedilly · 03/12/2018 08:46

Can I join? I’m 38 and TTC no 2, this will be our 9th cycle, I’m currently CD6. I had a disappointment in the last few days with a false positive Tesco test, so hoping December is my month too!

Seahawk80 · 03/12/2018 10:09

@bunhead34 I think it's good to have a good start, get some swimmers hanging around for ov! We had a night away without DS so made the most of it. We're off work this week too so finally have the time and energy to make the most of the FW. Hope you manage too as well!

Soexciting · 03/12/2018 13:13

@bunhead34 I am due to ovulate on Saturday night which is great since we are away. Unfortunately we are away with friends, double unfortunately my parents have just moved in with us while they have building work done. DTD yesterday morning and hoping for some stealth sex with the aid of Pre-seed everyday until Sunday. We are even thinking of visiting my parents empty house or a deserted car park! What a great conception story! Crazy life TTC

Chrononaut · 03/12/2018 13:47

Hi ladies

TTC#2 with a different partner and its taking a bit longer than last time, sorta worried his chemo from childhood might mean his sperm is a dud but its too early to go to the doctors

TTC#2 (28days)
Cycle 5
AF due 12th

hope you all get the BFP ya'll deserve

xLauraa · 03/12/2018 16:35

Cycle 13 and I'm strugggllinnngggg this month Sad
I suppose just because it's Xmas month etc....

Can't stop watching OBEM either which doesn't help

PaintingOwls · 03/12/2018 18:00

xLauraa I'm on a OBEM binge myself recently!

Wishful30 · 03/12/2018 18:27

Evening ladies. Been a bit absent lately. Trying to be a bit normal, and I'm pretty sure I won't get a bfp this month.

Tried to focus my brain on other things.
So, since the mc DH has been on nights. Not seen much of each other.
I used the beginning of mc as cd1. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Which means I'd prob ovulate around Wednesday 28th.
I had a lot of ewcm on the Monday. DTD Monday night. Other than that I'm totally in the dark. Maybe I've not even ovulated 🤔

Still, symptom spotting comes natural and it can't be stopped!!! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Boobs hurt yesterday. Been feeling really tired again.
Only weird symptom I've had once before, is really odd, slightly scary dreams. It wakes me up, I go to the loo, think WTF, and once I've slept again I don't remember what it was about 🙄

bunhead34 · 03/12/2018 18:28

@Soexciting oh no! Nothing sexier than your parents in the next room 😂
Have you used pre-seed before? I used it last month, no luck obviously!

Kaye03 · 03/12/2018 20:20

If we were just to say i had implantation bleeding on friday, when could i take a pregnancy test?
