RTuff TTC#2 Cycle 11 UCL 28-36 CD1

Hi Bettymum welcome aboard

Help!! I am on day 11 (normal cycle 28 days), used an OPK this morning and no smiley face. But (TMI alert....), just been to the loo and there were streaks of blood in my CM!!

This has never happened before?

What is it? I didn't do any BDing last night so it can't be from that

maybe this could help?

forgot to say, maybe it is breakthrough bleeding and just a little dip in the oestrogen... meaning that ovulation could be on it's way!

Ohhhhh. So I best get BDing tonight!!

Thanks ever so much bringonthetrumoets!

Hi all - may I climb on? - totally missed Dec due to stupidly long cycle last month, not even sure am ovulating, getting very fed up with self and body.

ps came off pill in Jan, used to have very heavy periods (which is why I was on the pill) but the two "natural" ones so far have been really light, two days of decent flow at the most (used to be seven full days). If anyone has any insight I'd be interested - just putting it down to adjusting after 8 years of microgynon at the moment.

Looked at my TCOYF book...

Blocka,

Agree with bringonthe trumpets. Believe combination of streaking and EWCM is potentially very fertile - sign you are coming up to ov. Grab the fella and get BDing girl! If streaking lasts more than couple or so days or so though maybe look into it further as may be something else.

Veryannie

think you're right, body just takes time to adjust and go back to your normal cycles when you come off pill.

updating for today....

how is everyone today? i'm already symptom spotting and driving myself mad on whether i got really lucky and this one stuck in the first month.
i've been:
-slight cramping and twinges since yesterday
-creamy cm (tmi, sorry!)
-headaches
-bbs sore at random times but not consistently

anyone else already started obsessing? we could start obsessing together!

I obsessing but at the conception stage, not syptom stage.

Still haven't had a smiley face on my OPK but slight bleeding yesterday, then definate EWCM today.

DD disturbed the BDing last night, so we had to continue this morning (was wonken by DP a 6am for this!) - but I was desperate for a pee, managed to wait 30 mins after 'the event' before I went to the loo but I am now convinced it all went down the toilet .

DP is out tonight, so BDing not on the cards this evening.

What if I miss the boat? Where are my smiley faces? Why am I 10lbs heavier than I should be and had to buy my first pair of size 14 trousers today?

Off for some wine....

Hi all,

Can I get on please, [offers round chocolates]

Af got me today, agggghhhhhh.

This is my month so could someone not quite as technophobic as me please add me

Can't believe our babies won't be born till next year !!

Good luck everyone.

Morning all, updating for today .....

Hi all, one way baby ticket to January 2010 please.

Am TTC#2 Cycle 11 UCL 26-28 CD6

Hi I'd love to be in on jANUARY - FOR OUR NO2. I'd also love a boy but maybe that's pushing it

ps. I have no idea what ucl and cd are?!? I've checked the acronyms and tried to scan through but I'm still none the wiser. Sorry for being thick!

Welcome onboard liahgen, kat and CC (and anyone I missed to be on the safe side!). No cliques on this bus!

CC:
UCL= usual cycle length, CD= cycle day.

Blocka you haven't missed the boat girl don't worry!

Laurielou how's your symptom spotting going - I've everything crossed for you, this might be the month!

I'm compulsively knicker checking the whole time - can't wait for the EWCM so I can get going!

Thanks don't try this at home - sorry for needing help!!! My cycle is impossible to predict. Had been doing really well but last month didn't have period at all?!? First time round I had to have Clomid to sort me out but hoping I can do it all by myself this time!
Lucky Salem and Veryanniemary are my cycle buddies. Think I've updated everyone for today. Sending baby dust to all those dancing like mad things

Morning all, hope you had a good weekend.

donttry - am failing horribly at the obsessive symptom spotting. List so far:

feeling nauseas;
pelvic cramps;
tired (vvvv tired!);
manic cleaning of everything (OK, fairly random I know, but I've been like a demon all weekend);
differnt consistency & frequency of EWCM (sorry for the TMI);
just feeling odd (which DP has dismissed as me being normal!!!)

AF not even due until next Mon - this is the longest week or so of my life.

Managed to keep busy over the weekend to stop obsessing & keep me off the thread, but work already boring & I've found myself drifting off into thoughts of new year babies.

Hope I'm not alone on the crazy ship.........

hi ladies, I'm adding myself to the Jan bus. Feeling quite emotional about it all right now and very down on myself for not getting PG when I was younger (I'm 35). I've tried all my life not to get pg by a waste-of-space, to 'build a career', etc., etc., etc. I suppose I'll feel better in a few days.

Anyway:

added you to the list skihorse sorry to hear about af coming and getting you this month. we're all here for you!

hey laurielou meeeeeeee to! i keep finding random things going on in my body and just tagging them as "pregnancy symptoms"
-heartburn (tbf, i'd never had it until i was pg with ds)
-gas bubbles... was that a cramp?
i'm due for af next monday as well and i can't wait to just either find a BFP (which would be !!) or just get af out of the way to start trying again next month. i hate being all obsessive like this!

Welcome aboard skihorse. I too did everything to avoid getting pg, assuming when I was ready it would happen easily - ARGH!!! (I'm 36 by the way) Try not to be too hard on yourself - easier said than done I know.

bringon thank you for keeping me company in the sympton spotting / obsessing stakes!! I've never been pg before so can't even compare. Honestly, if I sneeze I'm putting it down to pg at the moment.

Have to know one way or the other.........

Thank you laurielou, I really appreciate the fact that someone is stuck in the same boat as me, although I'd much rather you were getting a BFP obviously!

I had a horrible, terrible thought yesterday - I was feeling quite morose and then I got to feeling "envious" of women who had become pregnant and then had an abortion - because at least they knew they "could". Which is a REALLY effed up thing to be thinking and I'm NOT envious and I KNOW it's now light matter.

Hi ladies,

How's everyone doing? Sorry I've been absent for a while. Have been v busy with work (which is a v good thing cos I'm freelance and it's been completely dead of late) and BD.

What's the verdict on lying flat and/or with legs up after BD? I'd never even thought about it and certainly didn't try it for DD1 but these days I'm a bit more obsessed with TTC. A couple of times I've had to rush off straight after BDing and wonder if that reduces your chances drastically? But then again, I have to keep reminding myself people get preg all the time without lying flat on their back for hours on end.. What do y'all think?

hi Higglepig i asked my Fnurse about that and she said that it didn't make any difference she said she didn't know one couple that had tried it and were successful. she said laying in bed for 10 minutes or so after would be enough.

I just noticed we are on the same CD, how are you finding the waiting this time round?

I am getting into this obsessive thing too so think it's so good that we know we aren't on our own in our mentalness! Been and bought some ov predictors. Rip off price so hope they're worth it.
Skihorse - i think we all get envious from time to time - from a distance it always seems easier for everyone else. I keep thinking I should focus on the little smasher I have, but my mind just keeps drifting back to no2! I'm only cd 6 too and your cycle shorter than my normal ones so we might be trying around same time. Chin up for Jan
