    when you do fall pregnant you wouldn't believe how anxious it is making sure and not stressing that AF doesn't turn up. I'm even dreading next OV time but I'm sure it will be fine.
    You'll be fine, stop stressing:o Enjoy your pregnancy:)

    Isnt there something you can take to lengthen LP???
    I've been taking Vitamin B50 complex, my LP was not short to begin with, and it has stayed the same:p
    I'm taking it for PCOS (doctor does not believe in these, but said 50mg is harmless);)
  • Hi all:(

    Well my head is well and truly up my a**e:(, i dont know what the hell my body is doing! yesterday was CD24 (my cycles are usually 30 to 31) and i was feelin really positive that this month may be THE month! UNTIL i went to the bathroom last night, and BAM!!!! AF had arrived in all her glory!!! I wasnt even due on???:mad:

    Strange thing is though, i checked my CBFM this morning ready to hit the M button for CD1 and the little M was flashing:eek: as if to say 'you are due your AF any day now ha ha!' how the heck does that work then?:huh:

    Feisty _ huge hugs, horrid of witch to show up like that!!!!!!I know what it's like to get your hopes up. In the 11 months I have been ttc there have been 3 cycles where I really thought I had cracked it and it's devastating when af shows. You just have to try and get your pma back for the next cycle. Can you not have a little chocolate? I am 6 weeks into slimming world and the saving grace for me is I can still have chocolate just not like before. I now have a freddo the frog or a curly wurly and so still get a chocolate hit.

    Congrats Primer on 10lb loss in 6 weeks. The slower it comes off, the slower it goes back on. Wise words from an ex-target member!
    C'mon Fairy. Pucca up. AF may be here but you can focus on next BDing sessions and September being your month. Would be a June/July bubba so more sun :D

    Hi all

    just thought i'd pop in and offer some advice... we were ttc from july to dec last year so i know how stressful/worrying/confusing it is.

    Before we started ttc i used to have a regular 27/28 day cycles. A couple of cycles ttc this went out of the window and until i became pregnant my cycles ranged from 24 until 29 days so don't be worried if your cycles start changing length - i think my body seemed to know i was ttc somehow?!

    Before ttc i never had any spotting in the lead up to AF but whilst ttc i developed spotting a day or two before AF arrived - strange!

    I tried using opks, the first cycle i tried them it told me that i had ovulated and then then next cycle and the cycle after that i didn't have any line so the opks seemed to stop working for me!

    I ended up buying a cbfm brand new and used this for two cycles which did confirm that i was ovulating. it was expensive but i sold it on ebay for about £50 so was well worth it for the peace of mind. I didn't use it for the last two months of ttc as i new approximately when i'd ov so was happy with that.

    halfway through ttc i actually realised that what i thought was a mild constipation like feeling, was actually me ovulating each month. some months the feeling was a lot stronger than others. the month i conceived i could really feel it and it just happened to be on a sunday afternoon which was very convenient :)

    anyway, good luck to all of you. try not to worry about slight changes to your cycles as i reckon it's your body preparing itself! :)

    Haha I mentioned the CBFM to DH earlier and he never batted an eyelid! He went for a look on ebay at motorbike bits and saw it as I'd left the page up from earlier. Not sure if he saw the price but he hasn't said anything!

    feisty_fairy - sorry AF got you :(

    Perhaps you should get it before he bats his eyelid?:D
