  • Congratulations on all the 'positive' news.

    I am on CD 37 and no sign of AF. The last couple of weeks I have felt really bloated/constipated (sorry if that's tmi). I have put that down to my body adjusting to coming off the pill. However after all the googling I have done (because I am obsessed, I mean control freak) I can feel myself getting my hopes up and I know I shouldn't. There is no way we would be that lucky on our first attempt.

    I've been feeling pretty down this last week or so and am going to try to keep away from the thread and the internet in general for a while. I actually feel quite depressed and DH doesn't have a clue what to say to me. I've deleted facebook from my phone because seeing countless baby pics and family updates was making me sad. I just feel like I'm living through everyone else and dreaming that it'll be me one day which is making the reality of another failed month even harder.

    DH keeps saying I'm overreacting and it's too early for me to be feeling this way as we're only in our ninth month of trying. Am I mad to be finding it so hard? I've already been worrying about it for years since my endo diagnosis :(

    We've booked a Dr appointment to see if anything can be done or said to make me feel better.

    Anyway, I will keep checking back from time to time but I need a bit of time out.

    Good luck everyone :)

    chickp this is me all over!!

    CD28 for me - Ov has been CD27 the last 2 months but OPKs have confused me...had two strong lines the last 3 days but technically no positive, was saving my clearblue tests and tried on the middle day but got a negative. so could be today, but EWCM seems to have disappeared so maybe i missed it or didn't ovulate?!

    i think if nothing this month I'm going to stop with tracking etc. i know the symptoms generally now but BD-ing has become a chore, I am so emotional and my poor OH just doesn't know what to do with himself. I've planned not drinking, not exercising too much etc etc around this for 7 months to no avail - maybe it's time to just enjoy life and let it happen.

    I have learnt so much, I hope once I get a BFP to be able to tell my friends that it is not always as easy as you think and maybe spare some of them this heartache.

    SO happy for those with BFPs though - crazy how happy you get for people you only know online :)

    Hello everyone :)
    Not been on here for a while because me and hubby have been in Tenerife for our honeymoon!!!! (lots of BDing of course ;) haha)
    Congratulations on the BFP news :)
    Hugs to those that need them xx

    So AF finally made an apereance THE DAY BEFORE OUR HOLIDAY!!!! Was bitter sweet -first one since implant was removed but didn't want her to show before holiday! I think it could be because I've never flown before so was nervous and nerves and stress seem to make AF arrive with me (Just me or.anyone else?)

    So CD10 for me atm both Ovia and Glow say fertile window is coming up should OV around 16th Nov so as back no doing my OPK's again and got a faint line so not a.positive today! Hopefully it means it's on its way though :).Decided only going to OPK and temp this month the cervix position and mucus confuses me a bit TBH.

    Anyway long old post from me dust to all xx

  • Half way through TWW. Nothing to report as we haven't been doing any symptom spotting this month.

    I realise this is in stark contrast to the last couple of months where I've updated almost daily! Not thinking about it too much is helping the time to pass much more quickly while waiting.

    Still popping on regularly to see how people are doing though.

    Sorry to those feeling down this month, good luck to everyone.

  • It's sooooo quiet on here!

    Fingers crossed Freddie! And good luck Chocolatelover.

    I'm CD18, 1dpo. Ov'd quite late this month, it's normally on day 15. We managed to bd on 3 fertile days so fingers crossed. This is our 6th cycle so we are starting to lose our enthusiasm. Thought it would have happened by now.

    Me again :)

    I'm going to call it as CD31 3DPO as i never actually got a positive but had other symptoms (CM etc) and has been CD27/28 the last couple of months.

    Pretty sure we're out this month though as OH got a sporting injury on Sat which meant he wasn't exactly fit to BD!!

    I've noticed that too this month.

    Quite a few people have had BFPs recently and moved on. Many others have decided to take a step back, at least from recording everything, and so are posting less.

    Posts every few minutes it seemed a couple of weeks ago! Mind you there are lots of new people trying and joining the thread, so I don't think it'll stay quiet for long!

    Fingers crossed for you Milliebob!
