Well AF is here.

Every now and then i get a horrendous cycle where its so heavy and painful, and that seems to be what is going to occur this time round.

Oh well, on to the next Cycle

Oh Happylassie that's the worst since coming off the pill my AF has been much worse which is annoying as the fact it arrives seems punishment enough!

I'm sorry AF arrived HappyLassie. Hopefully it passes quickly and you can look forward to the next cycle!

No hint of AF here yet. I had some pains on Monday which I have associated with ovulation in the two months I did OPK's and I had EWCM... so I am wondering if I have ovulated (very) late! We BDed the last two nights, just for the fun, but didn't the days before Mondays as I thought AF was due and don't like BDing when it is imminent! So if I have ovulated late I think we are out. It also means I am on for another 40-odd day cycle again!

So sorry to hear that Happy Lassie.

Sorry AF arrived happylassie

9 days until my predicted AF but last month was a random short cycle for me of only 26 days, but occording to my opks I ovulated around cd17-19 so I am expecting a 31 day or so cycle this month but who knows. Obviously I would rather AF did not but I!!!8217;ve got lower belly bloating already, and it is not food bloat I have a tattoo that goes quite low down and this certain part of my lower belly only bloats when there is lady things going on, hoping it could be implantation but I will not get my hopes up!

PKK - have you gone to go about cycle lengths? I am wondering myself if it is worth a visit but do not want to Waste anyones time

Sorry AF got you HappyLassie!

Hope everyone is well.

Work have just told us they are making redundancies, our department is going down from 35 to 5 people! We should find out in the next 3 weeks what will happen to us and then end of October everyone who didn't secure a role will be gone. Really don't need this stress right now. I'm stuck with what to do, I really want to keep my job and we are a large company so ideally I will find something else here so it counts as continued service. My team keep saying "you're young, you'll find another job" and I think to myself they don't know I am TTC, I don't want to join a new company as sometimes they want you to have a years service before you can benefit from mat leave etc. And if in October I have been successful in this TTC journey, who is going to want to hire me?!

I may be jumping the gun and I could be on this forum another year but I think I have lots of thinking to do... Last time they made redundancies I was in the middle of buying my house, they sure like to pick their moments based on my life events!

HappyLassie13

That is awful BusyBargainz i have my fingers crossed for you. It's horrible having work stress on top of everything else, nevermind not knowing if your job is secure or not.

I have been applying for other jobs myself, but then i've been thinking (what if? and i won't be entitled to company MAT leave, but then i could end up TTC for years to come.... Oh how grand life would be if it was simple.

Sorry to hear that happylassie think I might be in the same boat which I was expecting as only just came off the pill etc but was secretly hoping (dont we all)

Equally frustrating when the 20 year girl who sits next to me been with her bf for about 2 mins announced this week shes expecting and its a happy accident

Due to see OHs uni friends next weekend but out of the 5 couples going we were married first and have no kids 3 either have their second or are expecting and 1 lot have a 6 month old Im so tempted to play sick and let OH go but I know thats silly

Busy Ill keep everything crossed for you x
