well Af came today... what a witch ladies! Hopefully July will be the month! At least now I know that my cycle is 35 days..

newmember really hopeful for you!! We really need someone with a BFP soon! Did you retest??

baby hopefully your romantic anniversary weekend worked!

engel enjoy your highs glad you are not going at it every day... give those swimmers some time to regain their speed

trixel even I enjoyed a glass of wine today.. was a bit disappointed about the witch.. so decided to have some to relax..

hope you all have a great morning! I am off to bed, tomorrow is another day + the beginning of a new hopeful cycle.

Hi cyncan

I re-tested 2 nights ago and still got a BFN, it was at night time tho. I don't have any tests left and refuse to waste any more money on tests! I have spent a small fortune between tests and my CBFM! lol

I should no in a few days Fingers Crossed!

I should know in a few days Fingers Crossed!

engelbart · 12/07/2009 12:32

Well I over-slept this morning and missed my window of opportunity for testing . That's the first time that's ever happened!
After his night off last night DH will be busy tonight. Infact I've already given him his 'schedule' for the rest of the week!

cyncan, like you say at least you have an idea of your cycle length now. And you can start on a brand new cycle!

How's everyone else doing today?

NewMember · 12/07/2009 15:57

Hi Ladies ...

Well AF finally got me this afternoon! Sigh!

I am not using my monitor for the nxt few cycles however, I will still pop in and keep you all updated! Good Luck!

mamabelli · 12/07/2009 18:52

hello girls,

i hope you don't mind me crashing yr thread but i've been lurking for a while and would love to join you!

I'm 39 and using my cbfm (2nd month) managed to get a BFP last month in the 1st month of using it but unfortunately I had a chemical pregnancy and currently on cd8 and getting low readings atm.

the good news is that i conceived my son born nov last year in my 2nd month of using the cbfm so i know that it works!!

Good luck to you all on here and hopefully July will see lots of BFP's!

engelbart · 12/07/2009 19:23

welcome mamabelli, feel free to add your details to the list.

Sounds like you've had a lot of success with the monitor which is good to hear! A few of us on here have been using it for a few cycles without success

Out of interest, when you've used the monitor do you normally have the same lows/highs/peaks each month?

Trixel - is that the right day for you?

I'm on day 13 and my second peak - peak yesterday and managed to bd twice. It was my ds 2nd bday yesterday so i'm having idealistic fantasies that a baby will be conceived on his 2nd bday!

salander · 13/07/2009 16:01

Hello, another newbie with a machine! TTC no. 1 and on first cycle TTC so far, peak was on 4th july so dreading AF arriving any time now and trying not to test. Am age 29. will be starting new cycle on weds if all goes pear shaped. Would love to be added to list too, lots of support from this site, loving it. Didn't realise the whole TTc process would be quite so emotionally upheaving. Um, yes, a little dense.

cyncan · 13/07/2009 16:35

Hey ladies good morning! Day 2 for me... bigbrofan you are right we must stay positive!!
mamabelli brings us new hope seeing that the cbfm worked for her!
engel good luck on your peak!!
baby sending you all the positive vibes possible!!!
