Has anyone heard from x_missymoo_x in the last few days? She's at the top of the list, and I'm hoping that she has good news when she comes back! I don't want to have to move anyone down to the bottom of the list due to nasty old AF showing up.

:hello: I'm still here waiting for the witch to turn up! Thank you for asking Mrs_T_M


Currently CD42 and still no sign. Since coming off the pill my first cycle was 46 followed by 38, so I tested last week on CD37 or 38 in the hope that my cycle had shortened again and I was late but it was a BFN. I think I was being much too hopeful!


I've held off testing again and am now just waiting to see what happens at the moment. I've only got one left in the house so I want to use it wisely! It would be typical that I test and then AF shows up the next day. FF worked out the averages of my last 2 cycles to be 42 days so its predicting AF will arrive tomorrow, however 46 days would take me to Monday so I'm not going to test until then if it's still a no-show! I've also been using FF to work out possible days of AF starting and then working back 14 days to see if we BD'd on a possible ov day, however we didn't DTD as much as we should so I'm not feeling optimistic...


It's so frustrating as I was really hopefully my cycles were shortening again, but no luck I don't feel any different and I've been trying not to symptom spot, however when I'm sitting down (like now) I feel a very dull ache and slight twinges in my pelvic area and have done for a few days, but I'm putting it down to pre-AF. Other than that and a little bit of CM, nothing... I'll keep you posted!

I'm afraid I'm going to be coming back to join you again - had another miscarriage at 8 weeks and a second scan yesterday confirmed that most of it has now left my body and just got a final bit to go.

We're both absolutely devastated but are dealing with it although we were so tearful yesterday.

So here we are, 19 months after starting our TTC journey, 2 BFP's later, 1 miscarriage of triplets in Jan'14 and a miscarriage of 1 in the last week.

Oh my goodness Gelly, I've just seen your post. I am so so sorry for you and your OH, massive hugs to you both.


My complaints of a long cycle seem so trivial compared to what you must be feeling Sending you lots of positive thoughts and wishes that it will indeed be 3rd time lucky. As much as we love hearing from you, hopefully you'll be leaving this thread again very soon. Stay strong lovely xxx

Hello everyone.
Gelly, huge hugs to you and your OH. I'm so sorry for what you have been through. I hope you will get your forever baby soon.
I nearly posted earlier to ask to be removed from the lists but I think I will stay put for now at least.
After the lovely words from OH the other day he just wouldn't DTD even when he knew I was OVing. I am going to talk to him tonight. I just wonder if deep down he may be scared following our miscarriage. Does anyone else have experience of this? I'm trying to understand. x

Gelly, I'm so sorry to hear your news.


I don't know if all EPU's do support meetings, but I found it really useful to do as it was just my husband and I with a midwife talking about everything. I really do recommend it, it helped me not to be scared of the thought of EPU if/when I ever need to go there in the future.


If you want to vent, please feel free to PM me.

Morning ladies

Hope you are all well? It's been a quiet month hasn't it - let's hope we get a flush of BFP's in the next couple of days!

Never in a million years did I think the journey would be this hard.

Wish us luck for a third attempt and wishing you all lots of sticky baby dust all round.

This is exactly how I am feeling at the moment. I'm on day 50 of my 3rd cycle since stopping my pill in Jan. Each cycle has got longer


Usually I can tell when AF is on the way as I get cramps but since Saturday I've had a dull ache that just feels "different" I'm trying my hardest not to symptom spot too but I keep ticking things off in my head as potential symptoms (and I don't even know IF I ov'd as I'm not temping etc yet as I didn't want to get too bogged down so early on). Don't you just love Mother Nature!

I'm keeping everything crossed that this turns out positive for you so you won't need to get onto that 4th cycle But I know what you mean about symptom spotting, it's so difficult not to!
