Hi guys - we've had May and June, so may July be third thread lucky. I am a July baby myself. All welcome.

Hi Vronsky, I got a false negative the day before due AF with DS, then waited a week and got positive. so happens but don't know how common, suppose it depends on when you ovulate in your cycle? DH thinks i'm ridiculously impatient this time and is telling me i'm definately not pg this month and he knows this even if i hadn't done any tests because my pmt is the same as usual!! (unfortunately, i think he's probably right). haven't tested again so if af doesn't come tomorrow will try and wait until tuesday but definitely think its on its way.

Hi Vornsky, I too got several false negatives up until a week and a bit after my AF was due, like squally said it does really depend when you ovulated as you cant normally get a positive until after 2 weeks, at least from ovulation! Good luck!!

Nothing to report here but need to mark my place on the thread as its dropped off the "threads I'm on"

smallone · 01/11/2008 22:20

Actually thats a lie, DH came home from work yesterday and declared that he'd been in a customers house who had a 10month old who was screaming its head off. He said he couldn't take his eyes of them. He's now majorly broody! I asked if he wanted to start "sex by timetable" (little does he know we've already been doing that -ish) and he seemed to be vaguely open to the idea. So once I've got this batch of tumour results behind me, hopefully we can start again with renewed vigor next cycle.

HI there. I haven't been on this thread (partly because I've no idea about CDs and such like) but have been ttc since May and have had 3 chemical pregnancies (or false CB faint +ves, if that's possible...).

The good news is that I got the best BFP since my dd this morning (testing one day early). I'm trying not to get too excited about it given my experiences over the summer, but I've already worked out that morning sickness will be due on or around my birthday if all goes as last time...

Anyway, I've been on agnus castus this month and wondered if I should stop taking it now? Any experiences of this out there?

Good luck to those of you still ttc. I don't dare to believe I won't be joining you all again soon...

Belgrano · 02/11/2008 19:45

COngratulations on the BFP hobnob57. Fingers crossed for you.
How's everyone else doing? Feels like we'loads of July-ers have moved onto the August thread lately. I'll probably be the last one standing, as if I do conceive this month it will be due on about 30 July!
Good luck Vronsky with your second test.

yellowflowers · 02/11/2008 19:54

okay, dh officially agreed to sperm meets egg plan. did today (day 8) and even the day before as a bonus, and he;s coming home early on Tues for a quickie before heading out to something that's been arranged for ages.

Icantbelieveitsnotbitter · 03/11/2008 12:00

Need some advice please !!

Decided to come off the pill after my last pack in October but, I have got myself all muddled and can't work out when I should expect my period to arrive !!!

Took my last pill on 4/10 and started period (finally) on 8/10. This finished on 11/10.

Is it 4 weeks from first day of period or 3 weeks from end of period or am I completely off the mark here !!

Thanks in advance !!

icantbelieveitsnotbitter CD1 is first day of period, so this would make you CD27 today.
vronsky my cycle now seems to swing between one short andone long, so I think my ov must change every month too. dd 21mo.

HomeintheSun · 03/11/2008 20:13

Just a quick one to say I was going to test today but af arrived before I could so I'm out of the running for a July baby. good luck to everyone.

Wishing · 03/11/2008 21:30

i have had to join to Aug thread too girlies! good luck to anyone that is still in with a chance for a july bean! i have everything crossed for you, even my legs at the minute! untill af goes away and bding commences!!

love to all and baby dust allround - bags of it!!

i will still be looking on this thread for any bfp updates!!

xxxxxxxxx

pinkie08 · 04/11/2008 12:58

Hi all,

Sorry wishing for all your upset this month, arent our bodies a pain.

Although not AF properly yet am sure it will be as splodge of red when wiped. So will see you on the August thread in a few days.

XXX

RipMacWinkle · 04/11/2008 18:10

Am out and so

Off to eat lovely ice cream I bought just for af arriving.

Can't even think about the August thread right now. This is just so soul destroying.

LollysMum1 · 04/11/2008 19:11

Still in potentially but did an internet cheapy test today and it was bfn and I nearly went cross eyed trying to see if there could be a line. I hate this! Have bought two CB digitals and dying to do one but don't want to waste one and have the disappointment of a bfn. Not too obsessed at the mo as our dog had puppies yesterday so at least there's some babies in the house!

spats · 04/11/2008 19:30

sorry rip go wallow in the icecream. good luck lollys, keeping fingers crossed. hopefuly not too much longer to wait.x

shoptilidrop · 04/11/2008 19:48

oh can i join you girls.......
Finally after coming off the pill 14 months ago i am oving today, im cd14 as well which is a miracle as i was waiting to be refered for infertility treatment. I only had 1 af in 12 months. Then 38 days after i had one, now cd14 of the next cycle. I am incrediably excited. If i am lucky i will get pg this cycle, if not im just pleased that my body seems to actually be working.
Im TTC no 2. DD is coming up for 3.

squally · 04/11/2008 23:08

sorry to hear your're out Rip and Wishing. lolly - i'm still in...just. Not sure whats going on, think body is playing tricks on me. Now i'm wondering if i'm on the right cd. I definately had EWCM on the weekend of the 18th/19th oct so if I ovulated then i would be 16/17 days PO. but did another test yesterday and still bfn. no sign of af yet though!! (have got some back pain, so expect since i'm writing this it'll be tomorrow).
Thing i'm confused about is do you ovulate in the middle of EWCM or at the end of it? and if your LP is the same each month, surely af would be here by now?? Sorry for the long post and TMI but doesn't quite fit - unless I didn't ovulate at all...

Hi everyone, not been posting as not really had anything to report. still in the running for a july baby but only just. if i do get pg this cycle edd would be july 30th and if anything like ds who was 11 days overdue would prob be an august baby anyway!!
