@Fivebyfive2 thanks hun!

@smitch82 thats good that DH is on board, I am the same I didn't meet my OH until I was 32 so we made the decision to try for kids before getting married.

@MrsAW2018 so sorry to hear AF is here hun, gutted for you 😞I have everything crossed for you for your next cycle. Lots of love

@Lozzlepop yeah should have done that but we decided to go for the wedding first. It was an amazing day though! My problem is I want to have it all 😂

I met my DH when I was 32. Must be a lucky age.

@BabyO1988 cheap opks work any time, it's just your surge is more likely to happen later in the day but it can be too diluted to test so you have to watch out for that.

@smitch82 welcome. I didn't meet my DH until I was 37. And the more I look back the more I realize that I wouldn't have it any other way and I'm glad I didn't settle.

@thosethreewords welcome back. My phone remembers your name 🙂. The difference in the vitamin B6 dose between what's in pregnacare and similar things and what's recommended for extending the LP is insane. We're talking 2-10mg vs 100mg. 100mg is the daily max, you can have side effects if you go higher than that.

@MrsAW2018 sorry AF showed up.

@smitch82 hi! I hope you have a short stay in the group and get your BFP soon! I think everyone's cycles take variable amounts of time to regulate again but fingers crossed yours will be regular soon.

@Lozzlepop that's really great! So pleased for you. Has it sunk in yet?

@MrsR16 thanks! And sorry about AF. She really does like a visit!

@MrsAW2018 really hope the new plan brings you your BFP in April.

@KatBeCool thanks for clarifying, I have actually got some vit B tablets so I will double check and take them if it's not going to add up to over 100 a day x

@smitch82 I would have loved to have had gotten married first but hopefully it will happen one day, maybe now he’ll pop the question 😂😂

@thosethreewords thank you so much! It’s starting too, think once we’ve seen a dr etc it will seem more real! Wish I could have recorded DPs reaction as it was priceless 😂 how are you getting on?

blackfriars · 20/03/2019 10:55

@MrsAW2018 - sorry AF has arrived - I'm due on Saturday and really dreading it!

Lots of positivity on this thread though so fingers crossed for more on the next one! I am trying to feel positive to gear up for another month but have now got a stinking cold as well as my UTI and feeling a little sorry for myself today I must admit.

Hoping a restful weekend will set me in good stead to get going with SMEP next cycle, and I suppose at least now I can have a large glass of wine over the weekend, which I do feel rather in need of!!

Congrats ladies ❤️❤️ sorry I've been a bit swept away with work - @Lozzlepop super happy for you both x

@MrsAW2018 sorry about AF, don't let it dishearten you xx

@Hatty33 congrats, did you tell your DH? Xx

Hannah192 · 20/03/2019 11:19

@Lottiepink Ahh ok thank you. We dtd the day after the positive too but had last night off, so hopefully we are covered. I will get a thermometer for the next cycle if we aren’t lucky as it’s good to confirm it. What CD are you on?
@BabyO1988 thank you! In the lead up, I either had no second line or very faint second lines, so the strong ones surprised me on Sunday! As soon as I started getting the stronger lines, I started doing 2 tests per day. I did test Monday and Tuesday too just to see if they would get even darker and the second line has completely gone now, so I’ve stopped testing now for this cycle. What CD are you on?

@Hannah192 aww brill well I'm sure you will be covered. I'm on CD11 today, so getting the the better bit of the cycle now ha! Love the lead up to and week of FW 😂😂

Thanks @cupcakesandglitter my DH is on about going to the doctors for a general health check for both of us now... just in case! I don't want to waste more time if either of us are actually infertile

Hi all, I've decided to selfishly take a rest from MN for a while. This being C11 and now I'm in the TWW it's really getting to me. Think I need to switch off, keep up with my Agnus Castus, then pick myself back up again.
Only 3 DPO today and have a nasty cough... off out with my manager and a couple other girls from work on Friday so hopefully that'll also keep my mind off things, DH said be careful drinking doesn't interfere, but I'll only be 5 DPO by then and nothing will be attached to me by then so surely it won't effect anything. Anyway, I'll post the latest stats that should be up to date if someone wants to volunteer to take them on, and start a new thread soon. I'll let you know on 30th if I get my BFP.. if not I'll be back when I get bored lol
Best of luck to all you wonderful ladies and don't give up hope 🥰😘🤗

I don't mind taking the stats list on (don't think I'm getting lucky anytime soon so might as well be useful haha!)

@babysquid - enjoy your break xx

@Lozzlepop aw I bet it was!! Telling my DH is the bit I'm most looking forward to when I get a BFP... makes me feel a bit teary to think about it 😭

@blackfriars I love the positivity in this thread too. It's made it a lot easier for me to feel like I can get things off my chest! I'm also going to have some wine this weekend!

@MrsR16 @MrsAW2018 Almost cycle buddies - I'm CD2 with O predicted for next Sunday CD13

@BabySquid hope you have a nice break. I had to do the same and I felt better for it I think - I was so gutted after my first AF of TTC because I just really felt magical about the fact I'd O'd on Christmas Eve and it was a great week of BD for me and DH... alas no BFP and it was so sad. So I hope you feel better soon.

I'm trying to think of it more positively now and for work and mat pay reasons, I need to be pregnant by Jan 2019 otherwise I'll need a break.... so 3 down, 12 cycles to go 😉🙃

@SunnyL88 - nothing doing over here! Sore boobs as per usual when pre AF....I feel like not as sore as usual but I am probably symptom spotting!

You haven’t tested? You’re more patient then me if so! Xx
