Congratulations DefinitelyBlonde! :j :j :j

Tink, I love your stocking bunting! So freakin cute!

Welcome MrsBunntobe :wave:

Huge hugs Abis, hope you're feeling better this morning.

Welcome Minimuffin, I was on Cerazette and when I came off it it I had a couple of mega cycles so you're lucky you only had to wait 3 weeks for AF! It took about 4/5 months for things to settle down properly and for me to notice that things seemed to be working normally at last. It was a very long, frustrating time, hope it's not like that for you!

Metranil, I know what you mean about getting men to talk to the doctor! OH had been suffering with a hernia for years before I made him go and get it sorted! He's still not made himself an appointment at the GP to ask for a SA, going to get on at him about that this week.

Hope the witch stays away Teaandcupcakes!

Not a lot going on at my end, just patiently sitting through the 2ww and I'm fairly sure we missed our chance this month so it's definitely a wait for AF rather than looking forward to doing any tests! Don't feel too bad about it though, the closer we get to our holiday the more I think it'd be better if I'm not PG when we go; especially as it'd be pretty early days if it happened now, would be worried about being so far from home if anything went wrong. It's only 2 cycles to sit out so it's not a massive set-back if we do try to avoid getting PG, whatever we're doing now seems to be doing the trick of not getting PG anyway so I guess we'll just carry on as we are! Just worked it out and I'll get AF when I'm away though, I hate that, holidays are not the time to be worried about bleeding and cramps and backpain!

Claire: about two yrs ago they told him this and i know that they want to check that nothing has changed down there

I think it makes sense

Just incase - did you make sure that you limited what you drank for 2 hours before? And and didnt do it any earlier than about 11am ( I think 3pm is peak time but of course most people are at work then!)? Im only asking because sometimes people dont read the instructions and then it doesnt work because of that. I dont mean that in a condescending way - just checking as it could be why!:)

I think if you bought them off amazon it sometimes links to that website anyway, depending on what you click on, but Ive always found its pretty good they usually take a few days to come though.

Thanks for that, yep have read the instructions, i always done them after 5 when i got home from work. Im fairly sure that i will just wait for things to settle down. Still trying to get my head around everything!

Thanks Birdie. Im hoping shes stays away but to be honest i do have Af type symptoms. (just slight though!) normally i get some spotting but nothing so far.

I just want a wee bubba:D xx

Morning! How is everyone today?

Welcome to all the newbies J

Hugs to everyone who needs them and a massive Congratulations to DB for the BFP!

Sorry haven’t had time to read all of your posts over the weekend so I’ve no idea what’s happening in the land of TTC!

Just to update:
Becca – can you please take me off the testing list? BFN on Wednesday, AF came (or so I thought) Thursday and I’ve had some very light spotting since then, ending today, so that’s it for now – just waiting to see if I ov this month. I’m still using today as CD5 and crossing my fingers it was just a VERY lite AF.
Oh well… back to using the CB digi OPKs starting tomorrow and searching for EWCM – the things I do! J

Been to the doctors to make sure everything was ok and I’m doing all I can to conceive. If I’m not pregnant in 2 months I have to go back for tests as I’m 40 and not getting any younger. So that’s reassuring I suppose at least she was supportive.

I’ve just bought a CBFM and was ready to start using it so I suppose that’s not going to happen now if AF is still a bit dodgy L not very MSE (oops)
Does anyone use OPKs and CBFM?? Just to double check ov is actually happening?

I had lots of PMA until this weekend, now not sure what to think. I thought AF would have been back to normal by now.

It took a fair few months, I came off the pill in October and think I first noticed EWCM and had a +ve OPK around March time even though my cycle was still 40-plenty days. I started doing Lunaception around May (I think?) which helped to kick-start things and brought my cycles down to 31-ish days and it seems to help produce noticable EWCM around OV too. I will be forever thankful to Aida for introducing me to it! :T

Sorry I can't be more cheerful about how things were but I think I was pretty unlucky with it all, even when I was on Cerazette it didn't really agree with me and if we hadn't started TTC I'd have been asking to change it for something else.
