    TTC # 2 since Oct 2011 - good things come to those who wait :o

    GELLY .... I'm no expert either, but I have been assuming that my second peak day is 0DPO and the high day after is 1DPO. Perhaps someone else will know?

    AFM, CD17 and surprise peak arrived 3 days earlier than last 3 cycles using CBFM. So don't know what to think ..... was it spending 3 months getting used to me and this is when I actually ovulate or is this a weird cycle?

    Suppose using the above logic I am 0DPO

    Hope you had a lovely birthday tinks :-)

    Huge hugs from me for ejecoms and tea xx

    I'm also happy to help out with lists - just ask me if I am needed to do them with a PM.

    CD 6 today as my bleed went on for four days so counting it as AF, not sure that it was right to do that but ....

    Really not understanding why period started 9 days early :-(

    Hope u all have a good day xx

    Morning everyone. I had a lovely week off work last week, so although I've been reading the updates, I've not updated. I always thank posts along the way, more of laziness so I know where I'm up to, so it's easier to see when I'm hiding :rotfl:

    Amy - HUGE congrats to you and your OH. Wishing you a smooth happy and healthy pregnancy.

    Becca - Hope you're ok after a break from the board. Some days TTC just gets on top of you, so I hope you're back to your normal self. Even if you're here and can't be bothered updating the lists, then just shout out and we'll get them done :)

    Code - Love the new puppy. My name suggestion is Dodger. No reason really…….. :)

    Tealover & ejecoms - So sad to see your updates ladies. I hope someone is looking after you both through this incredibly difficult time. X

    Blondy & pesky :wave: welcome to you both.

    Claire16c - Wow, 5.30am. That is dedication. Hope it's the extra baby dust you guys needs this month. ;)

    Tinkwings - Can I come to the party? Are you making chocolate cake? :D


    It seems I've made it to 13DPO even though my usual LP is 7 days. I'd love to think that the vit B made the difference, but I don't like the look of my temps. The coverline isn't as high as usual so they're not that higher than some pre OV temps. FF confirmed crosshairs for OV, but I'm not convinced! :rotfl: Any advice ladies?

    On another note, I also noticed my HPT's are out of date, but I'll still use them anyway! I guess if AF stays away, eventually, I'll buy some more…... :rotfl:

    Mincepiemonster, it could be that she'll feel guilty about moping around them and them not having any fun, so taking them (for example) to the park for an hr or so -with or without her - might be just the break she needs every so often...?

    Gelly, I think the stats are that for those who ov using the CBFM 30% ov on the first peak, 60% on the second peak and the rest the day after the peaks. Hope that helps you ladies.


    Congratulations amyloofoo! :D

    Really sad to hear your news tealover and ejecoms. Words never seem to be enough, thinking of you both.

    Welcome to blondy and pesky!

    Happy birthday tinkwings! Glad you had a good weekend, hope next weekend is just as nice.

    Becca - hope you're feeling a bit better today. Just wanted to say thanks for doing the lists, can understand that it's not easy when you're feeling down so really appreciate it. I don't post every day but do read/lurk so am happy to do the lists if needed.

    Codemonkey - what a gorgeous dog! How old is he? Have you decided on a name yet? Think he looks like a Jacob. Love dogs, more than people sometimes!

    ttc39 - not sure about the early period but wouldn't worry too much if it's a one off.

    mincepiemonster - sounds like you're doing an amazing job looking after your friend. Lost my dad quite suddenly almost 18 months ago and really appreciated friends who just text/called to ask how things were and if there was anything they could do. She may not want to talk too much at the moment, but as long as she knows you're there for her then that's great (cliche but it's true). Definitely offer to take her little ones as she may appreciate the break.

    AFM - cd8 and had a high on the CBFM. How many 'high' days do people normally get? Planning on dtd tonight but don't want to wear the husband out too much if the high will last for days!

    Nothing exciting to report here really

    Had my withdrawal bleed last week after stopping pill. Now waiting for first 'proper' AF.

    Waiting is not one of my strong points I can tell you!

    Going to make August my first month of trying.

    That gives me some time for my cycles to return and OH to pay off some debts. Grrrrr

    Is anyone elses OH useless with money? xx

    He's 5 and a rescue dog. Comes to live with us on Thursday.

    We're still trying to think of something. Weird how we managed to pick out a name for a girl baby but can't do the same for a dog.

    tea lover and ejecoms - I am so sorry for your news.

    Welcome to the newbies. Hope your stay is short. Please contribute as much as you can, because we really hate it when someone new joins then doesn't post til announcing their BFP.

    ttc39 - don't worry about the early period. Sometimes that happens. It's pretty annoying because you probably wouldn't have noticed if you weren't tracking.

    chelsea - for all his faults, my DH is actually really good with money. If waiting isn't one of your strong points you're going to love the 2ww. :rotfl:

    It sounds strange as a mum of two but I don't really know what I'm doing! My other two were unplanned so this is the first time TTC for us. I got my implant out about 2 weeks ago, I have no idea when things will "settle" so I can start keeping a track on my cycle!
