I'm joining in, this is cycle 2 just finishing, but had a chemical cycle 1, and took cycle 2 off. So starting cycle 3 and I'm on day 1 of my period so keen to get going! We have either set of parents here for most of the key ovulation period so going to have to master the art of completely silent sex! Romance!!

I really don't want to read too much into this but my boobs have felt weird on and off since 2/3dpo not sore just awareness that they are there if that makes sense. So I haven't breastfed in over a year and a half but it almost feels like a gentler milk let down I've been having. I just got out the shower squeezed both boobs and a little bit of milk I guess you could call it came out?! Wtf?! I've been having lower back pain and cramps on and off the past few days as well. It's surely far too early for this nonsense!? I'm not due on my period untill next week so far too early to test. Anyone else ever had this? Feel like I'm losing it!

Hi ladies!

Sorry been AWOL for a few days. AF due today, I had cramps and the tiniest bit of spotting but since then nothing. Wouldn’t it be so lovely to get a BFP for Christmas?!

Seasidegirll · 29/11/2022 09:10

Hey everyone, hope you don’t mind if I join? Period is due on the 1st and I’ve had a BFN this morning so I’m pretty confident that I’m out for this cycle!! My next period is due on Boxing Day, god wouldn’t a BFP be the best Christmas present ever 🥹. We said if this cycle wasn’t successful, we’d be a bit more relaxed next time but now I know I’m out, I want to go all guns blazing 😂🙈. I’m thinking of trying conceive plus vitamins, has anyone tried them?

@BiscuitLover3678 hi, I remember you from other threads a while back, hope you're doing OK. I'm on cycle 8 now, feel for you being on cycle 12. Mine would also be an Aug baby if BFP - AF due Monday. Not noticed any symptoms different from usual so far so not getting my hopes up

I remember you both too! I also started in December last year. I’m now doing IUI for the first time and on DPO 4. Best of luck to you both, sorry we’re all still here…

LucyLoopyLu · 29/11/2022 13:10

@anotherscroller hi! I remember you too 🙂 sorry you're still on the conception board too! Fingers crossed for this cycle with the IUI 💛💛 baby dust to you

Roxybabe · 29/11/2022 13:17

Think AF is coming today and then my December period will be due around 26th/27th Dec. Have felt abit obsessive and I feel like I need a little break from MN and googling for a couple of weeks, catch up with you all in my next TWW! Good luck to anyone testing soon! Big hug to anybody struggling!! ❤️

Hi all, hope it’s okay for me to join in! First cycle TTC baby number 2, currently on cycle day 11. Trying OPK for the first time, my cycles have always been on the longer side 31-35 days and I’m interested in knowing when I ovulate. Going to try to wait until AF is late before testing, but we all know how that’s probably going to go 🥴

Soooo after counting myself out… I have an update! (Hopefully pic attaches)

@ImpatienceOfASaint congrats!

Northbynorthbreast · 29/11/2022 20:54

How exciting @ImpatienceOfASaint . I’m testing tomorrow 14 days after embie transfer. X

Parkopedia · 29/11/2022 21:00

Hi ladies - joining if that's ok.
We have a lovely 16mo baby girl and have decided we're ready to try for a second, so currently on day 11 of 'cycle 1'

I told myself I'd be chill about it because financially the longer it takes the better....but have already started using OPKs and ordered some pre-seed. What can I say, once I've got my mind set on something, that's it.

Period due around 20th Dec so a BFP would be a Lovely Christmas present 🥰

@Roxybabe ah hope you’re ok, catch up when you’re back after your break ❤️

@ImpatienceOfASaint yay! Congratulations! 🥳✨

Thank you so much everyone! It’s not sunk in at all yet

BCxx · 29/11/2022 22:53

Congratulations @ImpatienceOfASaint 🥰

@Seasidegirll @Roxybabe a BFP on Christmas Day would be amazing! It would have the added bonus of not having to lie your way through any Christmas nights out first 🤣

The first 10 days of the cycle are so tough to get through, as much as the tww is hard, at least at that point you’re holding onto a bit of hope! It will fly in and you’ll be back in the tww again before you know it!

BCxx · 29/11/2022 22:57

Peak last night then had some really sore one sided pains tonight that definitely feel like they’re coming from an ovary! I don’t usually get such strong ovulation pains, it’s usually just the odd niggle and I can’t tell if it’s it or not but this has got to be it. Now just to try and distract myself for a week or so before I can think about itabout testing again 🙈 Putting up the Christmas decorations at the end of the week so that’s one thing to distract me🤣

Soda123x · 29/11/2022 23:11

@ImpatienceOfASaint congratulations xx

Hi all,

Tentatively joining as well. We're on our third month TTC #3, and this is the first cycle after an mc. AF due on the 11th - trying to hold on testing until the 10th but not sure how that'll go Grin
It was also the first time using the CB digital ovulation thingy.
Good luck to all and fingers crossed for nice surprises for the holidays 🪄
