    Totally agree that you can’t put your life on hold. This time last year we knew we’d be TTC by now and I remember doing lots of things that we do every year and wondering if I’d be pregnant the next time they came around. I made excuses for one weekend that we usually book a year in advance because it would’ve been impossible to hide that I wasn’t drinking. Now it’s approaching and I wish I was going. Apart from that we’ve continued as normal and booked a few holidays and weekends away.

    Katiebee it’s so frustrating isn’t it? A lot of our friends, family and colleagues have recently had babies or become pregnant and a few have said they weren’t trying or conceived on the first cycle. How can it be so difficult for the rest of us?

    On a more positive note, AF has finally arrived after 82 days. Fingers crossed for a shorter cycle this time! :j

    Hi all, still no sign of AF. I'm 5 weeks today so will move over to the less than 12 weeks thread. I hope to see you all there soon and will keep lurking to see how you are all getting on xx
  • Can I be moved to if in doubt?

    Normally my cbafm is saying I'm high fertility by now but still low!
  • So as I post that, my cbafm finally gives me a high reading!
  • 1dpo for me here so can I please be added into the two week wait?

    Lots of baby dancing this week so hopefully we may see another BFP at the end of the month.

    Congratulations Gemini x
    You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You are on your own, and you know what you know. And you are the woman who will decide where to go :smiley:

    Lots of you are in the TWW at the moment, fingers crossed for you all!

    My BDing plans last night were foiled by feeling ill. I am feeling a little better today though with noy much left on the to do list so we will definitely be having an early night :)

    Those of you that have finished the CD trial. Did you get any instruction on what to do with the questionnaire pack they sent? It just has a questionnaire in and an envelope, but doesn't say what to do with it. I'm guessing you put the things left over in it? I want to send it back asap so I have the OPK's in time for my next cycle!

    CD25 for me today (9dpo I think based on symptoms at the time). Starting to feel a bit nervous now about the next week or so...

    I've had long cycles since coming off pill (average 45-50 days) until last months 33 day cycle. So within the next week I *should* be due AF if my cycles have indeed gone back to normal, and it will be time to see whether our BDing has worked this time round.

    Been having twinges/sharp cramps in my tummy and have quite sore/tender nips today (sorry if TMI). I'm trying so hard not to read into every single twinge and feeling too much but really feeling nervous about whether these are AF signs or PG signs. Fingers crossed for the latter. Hubbys birthday is on Tuesday which is CD27 and I'm tempted to do an early detection test as it would be such a great birthday (I would only tell him if it was a positive result) but don't know how it would affect me if negative.

    Fingers crossed for the rest in the TWW xx
