Morning all,
Welcome to Faith and Bapbap hope your stay is short! Faith just to add my two cents regarding coming off the pill..I came off the mini pill in September and have had long cycles since then, average about 45 days. They are regular enough, just long. I've read some people saying it can take up to a year for your body to fully return to normal, so don't be stressing if everything isn't back to normal straight away.
Sorry to hear about your BFN Sakurah, big hugs x
I'm CD33 today, this time last cycle AF arrived. Did another early response test and BFN, so just waiting now.

Morning all!
I was wondering if I could join this thread please?
I have been lurking for a while but please bear with me whilst I get used to some of the abbreviations.
A little bit about me, I fell in April 2017 but sadly MC at 6 weeks. I would have been due a week after my wedding date so put it down to things happening for a reason. It took me a long time to get back into a normal cycle after that and the emotional scars have taken a while to heal too. I had a lot of friends announce around that time too which was hard.
Over a year on we are ready to try again! Currently I am on CD14 and according to my apps due to ovulate today!
(will be baby #1, I am 28)
Nice to meet you all xx0 -
Hello to all the new joiners
Hope its a short & sweet stay. It looks like were all around the same age too - I'm 29.
I'm really confused about whats happening this cycle. I've had 2 days of very very light bleeding, to the point where there no point in using any sanitary pads as nothing is coming out & today I've had no pink/red but a tiny bit of brown. Surely I cant have had a very light 2 day cycle?
My periods usually aren't very heavy but heavy enough to use products.0 -
Thanks everyone, it's nice to be able to vent somewhere! The OH tries but doesn't quite get it.
Sorry for the BFN's Buttermint and Sakurah, I'm so used to seeing them that I don't know what I'd do with a positive!
Sorry to hear about your MC
BusyBargainz, it sounds like you're in a good place to try again though.
I think I'm ovulating/ will be ovulating very soon, and getting the usual cramps but they seem so much worse this month for some reason! Does anyone else get them bad?
skimper, is the timing right for it to be implantation bleeding?0 -
I think it's a bit late for implantation bleeding as it started the day my period was due. If nothing else comes then I'll test again in a few days. I usually go 4-5 days so 2 very light days then nothing is a bit unusual.
I can't say I've ever noticed ovulation pains even when I'm looking out for them.0 -
Hi to everyone old and new!
I am 27, it is nice to know everyone is of a similar age!
Skimper I would def be testing I can not believe you have not given in already!
I think it will be another shorter cycle for me, I have had cycle two on the clearblue trial so I am back to opking with avengence, last month was a 26 day cycle so I figured I must have ovd around cd12-13 and tbh I am kind of kicking myself because I did notice an increase in CM but did not opk because of the trial but if I had known what that was going to turn out like I probably would have just opked regardless! Well same this month cd10 an increase in CM and got a darker opk, today CD 11 and it is darker again So I suspect I will hit peak tomorrow or Wednesday
As for ov pains, I would ov about 15 times a month if I thought I recognised my ov pains, I get a lot of belly twinges I always have but I used to put it down to the coil, who knows what it is but like I said unless I ovulate multiple times a month I have no clue, they are definite pains although I can imagine it being down to something I have eaten rather than cycle related!
PKK - I am sorry to hear your father is unwell, I hope you are ok xx
Good luck ladies due to test xxxx0 -
Welcome BusyBargainz wishing you a short stay
AF has just arrived
Well, I have light spotting, which is how it started last month on CD33 as well. Last month that had me thinking it was implantation bleeding because I never usually get spotting beforehand and my cycles were usually much longer; but it looks like my cycles have indeed gone back to normal length with spotting to begin with. My cycles being regular again is the good side of AF arriving that I'm going to focus on, rather than worrying too much about why our BD'ing didn't work.
So that's us for this cycle, on to the next one :j
Also, just to add I turned 29 last month, nice to know most of us are a similar age x0 -
Katiebee I did test on CD27 (last day of cycle) and it was negative. I'm CD3 now so I'll give it a few more days before I do another one. I really don't think it was implantation bleed and just an odd period. I usually OV 12 days after my period ends so cd15/16 so god knows when I will this cycle, think I'll have to buy some more opks to make sure.0

Skimper, I had a period like that last month when it was really light and then turned brown and stopped. A couple of days later I got normal bleeding. Apparently it can be "old" womb lining that is expelled first. I wasn't sure when CD1 was, so measured it from the start of the light bleeding, but then ovulated two days later than usual - so be aware of that!0
