@Roo3125 that's definitely positive. Hope you've been busy 😂

Ha yes that is positive!

@DaniX91 @tisonlymeagain I'm just glad that I kept testing! Have DTD for the past 3 days and will convince DP for the next two! 😂 Poor guy just came home from football last night wanting to sleep! 🙄🤦‍♀️😂

@Roo3125 haha well these things have to be done!😂
I'm only on 3dpo and I feel like I'm going crazy already. I'm thinking about every tiny symptom which I know is ridiculous cos I'd have nothing this soon and what I'm feeling could just be my body getting ready for AF (although I can't even remember what that's like cos it's been so many years!)
I keep getting slight cramps and my nipples have been so sore to touch for the last couple of days. Actually wish I was at work this week to make the time go quicker!😩

@DaniX91 I was like that last month! Determined to avoid symptom spotting this month. I've realised that my body feels weird/different/sore at all different times of the month. I generally have sore boobs 2-3 days before af arrives.

With every cycle though I'm realising just how much I want this to happen! Timing just now would be great as I'd be off for the summer holidays for any morning sickness etc.

@Roo3125 see I don't even know when AF will be due because I haven't had a period for God knows how many years and this is my first month of not taking the pill. Should it just be 14 days after I ovulated? Surely if it is then my boobs shouldn't be sore this early?
Aw are u a teacher? Would be perfect timing wouldn't it, I can't imagine having morning sickness in a classroom full of kids🤮.

You might have a short luteal phase @DaniX91 but ideally it would be no shorter than 10 days I think. Most people have their period about 12-16 days after ovulation.

@tisonlymeagain I feel so silly that at 27yo I seem to not know a lot about all of this 😳
When would u suggest testing?
I'm thinking 9th June. I'd be around 14dpo by then. That's if AF hasn't shown up by then anyway 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yeah that sounds about right @DaniX91, if you can hold out that long!

And ha, I only really know all this from TTC when I was about 26!

@tisonlymeagain it's a lot more complicated than I first thought! I honestly don't know how people end up with accidental pregnancies now that I have all of this knowledge 😂.
I'm guna do my best to wait until then!

@DaniX91 Completely agree! Folk that have had sex once and get pregnant. How does that even happen? 🤦‍♀️😂

Definitely ovulating today as my belly is doing weird and wonderful things haha! Hopefully the next two weeks go by quickly!

@Roo3125 I've got no clue but I wish it'd hurry up and happen to us!😂
Never wished a school holiday away like this before that's for sure! Ha

@DaniX91 Are you a teacher too? We're just back from a holiday but I have few classes today. Really hope I'm pregnant over summer or else it will drag in! 🤦‍♀️😂

@Roo3125 I'm a teaching assistant. Oh you're back to work now?
I'm back on Monday then got 7 weeks til the summer holidays.
Exactly, imagine having 6weeks to just sit and think?! No thanks 💁🏼‍♀️😂

@DaniX91 Yeah, I'm in Scotland though so we have different holidays. We have 4 and a half weeks till the end of term (I think) and they can't come quick enough haha! 🤦‍♀️😂

@Roo3125 ahh right! I'm in Durham. That's not long! Do u get 6weeks off?

@DaniX91 I'm in Durham too!

I think I'm past ovulation now so possibly 3/4 dpo had cramps and pink spotting which I'm guessing was ovulation bleeding over the weekend. I gave up with the opks 😂 I read something yesterday that's really put a dampener on things, that anti depressants lower fertility in men and my oh is on them 😔 just mentioned it to him and I think it's lowered his hope too. Hoping this is a lucky thread with all of the bfps x

@JD154 really?! It's a small workd isn't it!
Aw try not to let it put a dampener on things, keep thinking positive 😊.
Hopefully this is a lucky thread for us all!x

Ha! I’m in Durham too
Just had an early scan in Chester-le-street

I thought I should put my cerazette time line up for ppl who joined later
Stopped pill sometime in Feb
Didn’t have a bleed till 20th March
Positive opk 3rd apr
BFP 15th apr
Due Xmas day!

Ah @Comps83!! Crazy how close we are! Lovely pic so clear! My first 2 are December babies I had the same due date with them 3 years apart so that showed the pill never changed my cycles lol

@Comps83 haha that is crazy! Did u go to Window to the Womb? How many weeks are u now? Bet it was amazing seeing it!x

Yeah that’s where I went
I’m 10 weeks

Hi all,

I've been lurking!! ..but thought I'd say hello! I'm TTC #2, DD is 5!! After PND & lots of other bits going on I finally feel like now is the time to try again.

I took my last Cerazette on 5th May. My sex drive has definitely increased!! We've been very regular. I've had all sorts of "symptoms" but I'm putting it down to coming off the pill as I've not had any withdrawal bleeding or anything like that!

Can you help me with the abbreviations that you're using? Mainly the ones when you're talking about tests & ovulation?

Last time we had a baby I was on a different pill and had regular periods & fell pregnant immediately after the first period at the end of the pack. I deliberately took cerazette continuously due to GPs advice for other reasons which helped and was much better than I was but last bled in Jan and before that November (Randomly!) so I feel like it's totally different and I don't have a clue!

I'm very realistic but also feel so impatient & like a clock is ticking this time!

It'll be nice to get to know you along the way!

@tisonlymeagain OMG congrats! Fab news!! 🎉 I didn’t see the new thread, mumsnet emails been going to my junk I haven’t been ignoring you all! I’m about 12dpo but been on holiday since Sunday eve and was very restrained and didn’t bring any tests with me! I’m home on Monday on DP’s bday so will be testing then if AF hasn’t shown!

@comps83 what a lovely picture! So pleased it’s all going well.

@roo3125 is this your first proper positive OPK?? X
