Good luck ladies.

sorry forgot to add Muser i also just read you also planning to poas to next weekend to.

Thanks Asianbabe i think i ovulated on CD12/13 so will be about 14DPO next saturday so really going to try and hold out till then

Think i might be naughty and test on the friday as DH away over the weekend (or maybe first thing saturday morning)

now now sparklyalice you are beginning to tempt me!! I'm going try and hold out for as long as possible just need to hide my purse so as not to buy anymore CBD tests. They are so expensive and I go through them like a packet of biscuits. (have been known to eat an entire packet in one sitting)

ok, how about we make a pact not to poas before sunday 6th

sparklyalice

Here's hoping we can last that long.
Roll on Sunday!!!!!

Thank you poppy!
Ill be watching while you all try not to poas! Not even in 2ww yet...

well I was the most hopeful i've ever been this month, but now I have a feeling AF is imminent as I have mild pains that hint it's coming However I do remember thinking AF was coming with dc1 I have had restless legs for the past 2 nights as well which I haven't had since I was last pregnant.... Think i'm in for a big let down aren't I....

Shirazz have some soft cheese/smoked salmon/big glass of wine and you will definitely be pg

If no AF for me before this group POAS I'll join you! To be honest, don't think this is the month for me. Don't think I've really got any symptoms (or at least I keep trying convince myself the ones I think I have are all in my head, which is probably the more accurate of the two options), and you can't expect too much from the first attempt! But, AF due on 4 Dec so if it hasn't turned up, POAS on 6 is good for me. Promised myself I wouldn't test until actually late. Think I'd rather just have AF turn up then get a -ve.

hey ladies, it's all going on here, what a busy bus!

No news for me unfortunately, still no AF so no way to track my cycle length yet Not sure quite what to do, to wait patiently for another month obviously but curiosity might get the better of me.. if only those dam sticks were free!!!

love to the bus! x

Are you other 'POAS next Sunday' girls keping off the booze 'just in case'? What do other poeple do - in the 2ww do you avoid all the stuff you're supposed to when pg? I went out on Tuesay with friends and just didn't think until I'd had a couple of drinks. Stoped then but did think I perhaps should have thought a bit earlier, oops

Nope I don't give up booze in 2ww. I don't drink unless I go out and that is not very frequent. So if I do go out then I will have a few drinks - can't be bothered in getting to pished anymore but that's more to do with the toddler I need to look after. Everything in moderation.

hello ladies !

Can I hop on the August bus? I am TTC cycle 1, day 20 of a 27 day cycle. Not sure how to update the list...

Am due to test on 4th December but couldn't resist Boots BOGOF offer for FR Early Pregnancy Tests today - so may test this weekend...

I have loads of symptoms but they keep coming and going so think I may be imagining most of them..

Here's hoping I see you all on the August antenatal thread !

SparklyAlice how funny - before I even read your post, I went grocery shopping, resisted buying any tests to give me bfn, and instead bought 3 bottles of wine and after shopping went to the pub for dinner! I have been having runny eggs every morning and although I have been cutting down on coffee, I had a couple of nice proper coffee's yesterday and am having one now Still no AF, so this will be the longest my cycle has been but I am also taking the B6 etc so I think it's giving me false hope!!
Good luck everyone else testing.... Did someone say 2 for 1 tests at Boots??

shirazz WhatKatyDid There are lots of us poas next sunday. At least 3 of us are cd20 today of 28 day cycles (usually)

Want to hold out til then with us?

I'm on day 27 of ucl 25-28 days.... Should I poas today? Who thinks I should? dh doesn't, but it's my body so I need to know!!! I'm scared of bfn though....

Erm....I would, but would have accept it is quite possibly to get a BFN even if you are. Why not wait til monday? Isn't it better to do it first thing in the morning too?

Good luck, sounds promising, will keep everything crossed for you

Does anyone else suffer from a short luteal stage? Mine is 11 days but have bleeding before that so not sure if I need to take something to increase it??? Might go and have a chat with the doctor.

Alice- Yeah I know - I think I will buy one today and test tomorrow first thing

LOU- Yes - mine was VERY VERY short - like 8 or 9 days at one stage! I extended it in the first month I tried by 2 days. I take 200mg of B6 the entire month, then Agnus Castus 1600mg from CD1 until OPK+ ONLY and natural Progesterone cream from OPK+ until last CD and it worked the first month by bringing my Ov day forward to around CD15 (it was previously CD 18-ish) and made my cycles a couple of days longer too! Check with your doc though as I don't know what would be best for you.

Flowery - I cut down in 2ww but not cut out -Have a toddler here too so really only have a glass of wine at night (a big one) and I know I didn't cut out at ALL when ttc dc1!! although.... I am older now

Louja you can take Agnus Castus to lengthen luteal phase. Some people only take it for 1st 2 weeks of cycle, but I was told to take it all through the month, then stop as soon as I got a BFP. After a month, I'm back on 28 day cycle, but they do say you need to keep taking it as the effects build with use.

Shirazz I don't know much about progesterone cream - is it prescribed by the doctor? Does it also help lengthen luteal phase? Thank you {grin}

Hi Polly I hope all is well. According to TCOYF a short luteal phase is caused by low Progesterone hence the cream.
