    Hey,


    Please can I be added to the first page:
    Flower10 (31) TTC#1 since 01/15


    Currently CD14. Using a phone app to loosely track cycle, and according to this 0DPO today. Not using OPK's.


    Since started trying, feel apprehensive and excited. The waiting time until AF feels very strange.
  • Thank you for the welcomes :cool:

    Please can I be added to the list:

    Wow its been busy round here again this week.

    Welcome all newbies, seems a lot in the last week, hope your stays are short

    Congrats to LottieLou :j

    and good work Lulu92, don't forget SMEP says to have a bonus go after positive opk so hopefully you've timed it right.

    I temp chart orally and as I think I've mentioned not sure how accurate as I don't always wake at the same time and I'm a really rubbish sleeper so quite often I won't have had 3 hours uninterrupted sleep before I take it so I'm never 100% sure on my temps, but there is a definite difference between 2 stages of my cycle, with the odd anomaly. Temps are still higher than 1st stage so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

    I've had slight AF feeling the last couple of days, and Ovia tells me it was due yesterday and keeps telling me to take a test, but FF has AF due on 27th. I'm so tempted to but trying to be MSE and save the test I have in. I hate this bit! Wish I had regular cycles so I'd know when I was definitely late.
  • Chickp, I do exactly the same - I haven't got any pregnancy tests in at the moment, because part of me thinks if I haven't got them, Sod's law says I will need them :D

    OH is also a member of the 'everything will be fine' club - I don't know if it's his religious upbringing, but every time I worry at him, he just tells me he has faith we'll get there. I know his positive attitude is to be commended, but tbh sometimes I just want commiseration!

    Congrats on DTD Lulu! Everything crossed this month is your month :j

    Afm, I'm feeling a bit better. Went out with one of my best friends last night and put the world to rights over some amazing cocktails - something I couldn't have done if pregnant, reminded me to try and enjoy what I have without always worrying about the next thing. Am going to enjoy my weekend and focus on next month being the one :beer:

    I like your name Black Ribboner! Sad times last week :( I'm currently trying to find a way to get a Pratchett reference into our wedding :o


    AF is due on Tue and I'm trying hard not to get my hopes up but how is it possible? I keep thinking 'but what if I actually am ...?'

    :cool: Feeling pretty grumpy but that could be a sign of almost anything!

    Can I please be updated to CD1. Thanks for doing the lists kellykins.

    Hope everyone has a great weekend. Just about to crack open a bottle of cava and a bag of revels after a day of decorating!

    I've also been doing some decorating, hoping hub brings some wine or beers back when he gets back from fishing :beer:

    AF still hasn't arrived, which is annoying as been achy a few days now and rather get it over and done with. Thankfully my bleed is only 4 days when it does get here.

    Welcome newbies!

    I've been pretty quiet lately as getting annoyed BUT 75 days after stopping the POP pill, I've got my first AF. Well, brown spotting but the most evidence I've seen that my body is working! Does this count as CD1? Or only when full flow?

    Had my blood tests done a week ago and all normal except one of the three thyroid tests showed slightly off, so having them retaken in 3 months.

    I'm just delighted my body is finally behaving properly and I can start to figure out my cycle!

    Have a great rest of the weekend all! :D:beer:

    Hbex, my first period last month was eight days of light flow with dark red/brown blood. It was really light, but to me that was definitely AF.

    This month has been five days with medium flow, but constant cramping.

    I'd definitely count it as AF CD1, but be prepared for a punch in the face with next month's.
