Af got me today a whole 2 days early which never bloody happens! I'm putting it down to all the vitamins I've been taking. Nevermind that's another month to shift some more weight. I'm stocking up tomorrow on the grapefruit juice, pineapple and brazil nuts.

GemmaJen · 04/01/2019 20:37

@thosethreewords ouch that sounds like a pretty rubbish week. I always think negative things come in threes, so your due lots of good luck now 🤞

@WatchingTheWheels85 I'd heard about grapefruit juice, but what are pineapple and Brazil nuts good for? Sorry about AF, she really is a b*tch.

WatchingTheWheels85 · 04/01/2019 20:40

Pineapple core for conception and brazil nuts for implantation apparently. So you should slice the core and eat one piece a day 4 days prior to ovulation. It says that with brazil nuts you should eat 2-5 from ovulation to 10dpo. No harm trying!

Started spotting about an hour ago Sad. AF will be here in full force tomorrow. Off to the February bus I go (if there even is one yet!). Good luck to anyone still in this month.

Shefliesonherownwings · 04/01/2019 23:07

AF arrived now, back to trying next week.

Nocoffeenotalkie · 04/01/2019 23:23

What does SMEH stand for please?

Nocoffeenotalkie · 04/01/2019 23:27

Sorry, SMEP.

AF has arrived right on queue! So officially CD1 Cycle 4! Glad to be out of the TWW and starting again! Good luck to everyone for the rest of Jan 😁

CookieBlue · 05/01/2019 09:17

Hi all! Could I join please? Grin trying for our 2nd. Already have a DD who will be 4 in March.
Casually tried last month but this month have downloaded the app’s and am using OPK’s.
Currently on CD14 but since coming off the pill (last June) my cycles have been all over the place.
Didn’t try for our first (surprise baby!) so this is all new and confusing to me!!
Wishing everyone lots of baby luck x

Frillyfarmer · 05/01/2019 09:43

If this is a sticky bean, there will be a matter of days between my due date and DC1's birthday!

Jan Bus - new year, BFPs please
Fortheloveofscience · 05/01/2019 09:58

Morning everyone!

Congrats Frilly, fingers crossed it sticks!

Sorry to see so many AFs turn up but fingers crossed for next month (suspect I’ll see you all on Feb bus in a few days).

POAS this morning, BFN but unsurprising since only 8DPO Blush.

thosethreewords · 05/01/2019 10:04

@emcrave rubbish about AF but we are cycle buddies again this month! Also so glad the 2WW is over. I was/ am disappointed that AF arrived for me but nowhere near as bad as the uncertainty of 2WW
@Frillyfarmer congratulations!!

PinkFizz19 · 05/01/2019 11:04

Hey can I join please? Smile

I'm a new member, TTC 1, Cycle 1 and currently CD 33 so going off my previous 28 day cycles before I went back on the pill I'm 4 days late. Took a FRER this morning and it was negative so feeling a bit gutted as no sign of AF yet but I'd had all the feels of it coming, so thought we'd been lucky and caught first month (only came off the pill November) Going to leave it a few days and maybe test again on Tuesday if still no AF and I'll be a week late then.

Good Luck Everyone Star xxx

HJWT · 05/01/2019 11:20

@Frillyfarmer congratulations 🥰

HJWT · 05/01/2019 11:29

CD17 for me... OPK starting to get darker finally

emcrave · 05/01/2019 12:46

Thanks @thosethreewords! Oddly enough I feel okay! I’m not considering myself off the Jan bus just yet as Ill next ovulate around 21st/22nd (might just be at the back of the bus) but still on it!

TtcIAm · 05/01/2019 13:31

cd1 for me which means i had a 32 day cycle with ovulation on cd21 big of a short lp but better than 5 months with nothing so that's at least some hope.

Thinking of taking a couple months off now as i'm due to have surgery in april so don't want to put that off

PinkFizz19 · 05/01/2019 16:16

After my post this morning and trying to remain postive despite my BFN....AF arrived this afternoon Sad Oh well...onwards to the February bus I go...CD 1, Cycle 2.

Hope you all get your BFPs Star xxx

MammaBear18 · 05/01/2019 19:41

Congrats Frilly and fingers crossed for a sticky one!

Just ordered some OPKs as I don't think this will be my month - DS back to feeding very frequently due to his cold so trying not to get my hopes up!

HJWT · 05/01/2019 19:43

Still no positive OPK for me... i really should stop testing and just DTD every other night but its so addictive 😂

Pinkelephant12 · 05/01/2019 20:01

Need a rant. Started the dreaded TWW yesterday and today close family members came over to tell us they’re expecting. Although I’m beyond happy for them it did sting a little. Had a little cry picked myself up and praying for a BFP this month. I’m not sure how I’ll feel if AF rears her ugly head. TTC can really mess with your emotions. Anyway FX

I always feel that little sting Pinkelephant. I'm obviously happy for other people because them getting pregnant doesn't stop me from getting pregnant, but I just always wish it didn't take that long to get there and it was me breaking the happy news as well!

Desperatehousewife69 · 06/01/2019 10:25

aww you will get there @Pinkelephant12 ! TTC is hard But you just got to try and enjoy it ;) it’ll happen for us all. @saffy347
That sucks too always hard when it’s in front of you !
