Trying for a Baby Part 7

Hugs tinks. Was this an unusually short cycle for you? We were only 1 day apart if I recall, and I am just 10dpo today.

Sadly no the normal 28 days just got my on ov stick on cd10 :eek:

Went to see a dear dear friend this morning. She got her bfp yesterday only had s.e.x twice in the month I am so thrilled for her I could burst but feeling a little sad for myself as AF arrived when I was at hers :(

That's hard. Life is very cruel sometimes. Hope next month is your month.

Hello ladies,

CD1 here and I'm really happy No cramps or pain before AF came so I'm :j because usually I have really bad cramps.

Hugs to everyone who had CD1 yesterday and today. Hope next month is your month.

Last cycle I took Evening Primerose pills to help my CM but I wasn't impressed so I should give a go to the cough syrup.

Claire, on QQ list you are still waiting to OV but your FF chart says that you OV 11 days ago :think:.

Mogwai, you're gonna drive yourself potty testing so early! :rotfl: there's no chance in the world you'll get a bfp before a potential bean implants, and that only happens 6-10dpo, then it needs chance to multiply hormone levels. I know the 2ww is excruciating when you're excited, but if you want to keep an eye on your chances during the 2ww you're better off temping. There's a link to the chances of getting +ive tests at what dpo, on the first page I think.

It's also worth remembering that even with well timed BD the chances of successfully conceiving in any given cycle is only around 25-30%. It is also considered "normal" to take a year to conceive.

Thanks all, I think I will hold off. I had a look at the link, and it says the earliest I can test is thurs!

Does anyone know exactly when hCG is supposed to be produced - is it after conception (fertlisation) or implantation? ive read both!

I wish I could temp but I am too absent minded and I know ill forget most days! I think Ill stick to cm monitering to figure out my fertile days, though this month I have been having persistent watery cm since OV, which makes me think....hmmm.. :rotfl:

OK, no more second guessing, am holding off til Thurs!

Lovely lazy sunday am off to have a cup of tea with OH, hope youre all having a lovely evening!

Evening all, please can I join you?

DH and I started trying about 5 months ago and I kind of expected to be pregnant by now. I don't really understand the whole temping thing, or most of the abbreviations here but it will be nice getting to know you ladies and hopefully picking up some tips.

Thanks Nicki. xx

Welcome Cupid Page 1 has some of our notes on abbreviations x

Cupid - welcome to our thread, I hope your stay is short and you get your BFP (big fat positive on pregnancy test soon).

Welcome Cupid, hope your stay is short and sweet
Ooh ladies, I've had a breakthrough with husband dearest, next month we can do SMEP, wih temping and ovulation tests and everything!
As we discussed that my concern is that I'm not ovulating so we agreed to do our best to find out next month if I am. If I'm not, we'll relax until I've lost weight/ got help from the doctors
Oh and ive ordered soy isoflavones to take with the agnus castus to try to imorove my cylce length, so all systems go for next month x x x
