    Sorry about AF Freddie. I find teaching really hard when anxious or disappointed by ttc. Not to mention the number of pregnant parents and new born babies I have to see on a daily basis.

    Cd 15 today and I finally got peak on the CB opk so BD this evening and will again tomorrow. My temps have been up and down and I think lighting a fire some evenings has skewed things so I'm really glad I started opks. So far we've BD on cd 11, 12, 14 and 16 so I guess it's a good month.


    And finally, massive massive congratulations to Kellykins, I'm so pleased for you! And also euronorris, wishing you both a great 9 months :)

    Milliebob that's when AF is due for me so let's both try and hold out til next Sat to test if we can!

    I was fed up yesterday so had a few glasses of wine and a rant which helped, feeling calmer today.

    Nothing else to report. Hugs to all who need them x

  • Aww Freddie!! Really sorry to hear that :( lets hope next month is your month :)

    No AF yet, cervix has changed position (now high and hard) it's amazing how much your body changes over the month! No idea what that means as I thought it got softer the higher it gets? Unless it's so high I can't feel it? Still getting to grips with everything. CM seems to be changing and getting more watery now.

    Been using OPK's everyday (just cheapy £1land ones) had a little line last Sat but since then not had anything.

    In a way I want AF so I know I can start working out when my fertile days are etc. as I know it is probably going to take me a while to conceive, plus I'm off on holiday in a couple of weeks and don't really way AF when I'm away.

    Trying to get used to the whole no implant thing and a natural cycle. I've not had a "normal" cycle since I was 14 (now 21) so not quite sure what to expect, except pain and mood swings and obviously blood!!

    Had a bit of a down day the other day as I had to come off my anti-depressants to TTC but actually been feeling quite positive and good about things. Although I've put on weight and know thats not good when TTC!!

    Glad for this thread as I know you're all here to support me and vise versa! Sorry for the long post everyone just wanted to have a good old typing sesh!!

    Hugs to all that need them xx

  • Frugal Freddie - sorry to hear that! x

    Think AF is due Wednesday coming... If I've calculated correctly?!

    This means I'm in the two week wait but, if I'm honest, I'm not too hopeful this month. I find it harder than I thought I would... I've symptom spotted to no end in previous months. This month not so much!

    Hugs to all that need them xxx
  • Sorry to all those with AF, keeping everything crossed that this is your cycle.

    Well, AF is due on Wednesday and I have a friend arriving from Oz on Tuesday so decided on a whim to test tonight whilst hubby and I are in the house by ourselves, BFP! Was very unexpected, no real symptoms to note. We are thrilled but cautious as its so early.

    This was cycle 6 and have never had a sniff of a line before despite positive opk' sand well timed bd so I guess sometimes it does just take a little bit longer. Fingers crossed for everyone on this journey, really hope it's short for you! Xx
  • Congratulations Sunshinegirl73!

    Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months! x

    Congratulations sunshinegirl!

    CD17 here and still no temp rise after my positive opk on Friday. We're sort of following SMEP so we were going to BD again tonight anyway. Really hope it rises tomorrow as I'm knackered! So far BD on cd 10, 11, 13, 15 & 16. I'm not sure we've ever done it so much, even when we were first together over 10 years ago!
