I need some help guys,

AF turned up this morning, not like first thing in the morning, I just noticed her when I went to the loo there, do I count my first day of AF as today or tomorrow when I wake up with a full bleed (sorry if its too much TMI)

I'm just wondering if I can figure out when I will be ovulating?

And also AF is early she wasnt due till tomorrow, so I am confused as to what my cycle lengths are now?

These are my cycles for this year

Jan 14th - 21st (30 days?)
Feb 13th - 19th (29 days?)
Mar 14th - 18th (27 days?)
April 10th - 17th (28 days?)
May 8th - 14th (27 days?)
June 4th -

Help lol

Your cycle lengths look ok to me. Mine are roughly the same in that they aren't the same each month but are usually between 29 & 31 days long so they are usually within a day or two of each other.

Working out day 1 of your cycle.......I usually have at least 2-3 days spotting before proper AF. I call CD1 the day I get full flow before early afternoon. If its late afternoon/evening when full flow starts I call the following day CD1.

uuuurrrrgggghhhh

I'l have to wait at least another 2 months now if my cycle doesnt get sorted

You can ovulate anyday in a cycle although most women ovulate around day 14 some ovulate on day 20. The phase before ovulation can vary a lot from cycle to cycle ( if you are stressed etc) but the luteal phase which is the number of days after ovulation to af does not vary more than a few days for you. If for example you ovulate on day 14 and have a 12 day luteal phase then you would expect af on around day 26, if you ovulate on day 20 you would expect af on day 32. Before ovulation your cm goes from sticky to lotiony and eventually eggwhite, the eggwhite is the most fertile. After ovulation you should notice that your cm quickly dries up. I hope this helps you. To increase your chances of a bfp bd on the days where you have cm until you know ovulation has occured. I hope this helps you.

Hello!

Apologies if this is the wrong thread to post in!

My OH and I are planning to start trying for a baby after summer (we have financial stuff to try and sort out first!!). I am 31 and don't want to wait much longer!
I have had a few gynae problems in the past, including PID and have a feeling it wont be an easy ride (sorry probably the wrong phrase there!!!:rotfl:). However, I want to try and get my body (and his) into the best possible condition and do as much as I can to help the situation.

Can anyone recommend any pre-pregnancy books that would give me good honest advice? I had a look on Amazon but got confused!!

Thank you! x

Thank u homeaway, everythin u said makes sense yes, i have only just started tempin wish i had before now but stil...
My temp rose last wk accordin to chart and yes i had a little EWCM so prob did OV then when thinkin bout it logically it just never registered with me as i assumed it was too late in cycle bein CD43.. :mad:

Why wont my cycles regulate? what can i do? i was told max 6mnth after comin off pill, now in mnth 8.. and only had 3 periods so far!

Leopardlady no i havent tested yet, felt bit rough yesterday so went home saw DH for hour and bed, as im on earlys this wk

But managed to aquire some pg tests from a&e today, now prob not worth it after readin more info, just another really long horrid cycle that messed me up...
o well learnin more as months past !

Hope everyone else is good, need some bfp's to lighten the mood

I went to see fertility doctor this morning they confirmed before taking clomid i was not ovulating but now I definitly am, I am taking 50mg days 2 to 6, have got another prescription for another 3 cycles but hoping I wont need it, keeping my fingers crossed for me and everyone else trying x x x

AF just arrived, and is therefore due again on 2nd July 2009, I am going on holiday to Cyprus from 27 June - 11 July.

Now I don't think I could handle going away and if AF is late and waiting till the 11th July to get home to test lol

So for sanity reasons do you think I should take a test with me, but obv dont use it till I am def def def late?

kindofagilr

Good luck everyone trying for a bfp

Do we have anyone who is near the testing stage?

~annie~_2

as long my temp doesn't keep going I'll be ready to test by about SUnday... but I don't hold out much hope
