Just wrote out a post, my toddler decided to grab my iPad and I lost everything that I had wrote Is anyone else just wishing the days away right now or just me?
So, my cycles can vary from 26-35 days, I have been tracking my CM and positions as well as using a Clear Blue opk. On CD15 & CD16 (4th/5th) I had the signs of ovulation and a positive opk so I DTD on both of those days and then had a negative opk on CD17.
I use 3 different period tracking apps and even though I’ve entered the same data into them all, they are all predicting different AF due dates.
One app is predicting that AF is due on the 18th, another predicting the 19th and the other one randomly changed from the 20th to the 22nd Since CD19 (8th) I’ve had mild cramping, hot flushes and increasingly tender breasts. I know these are AF symptoms but I usually only get tender breasts from around 4 days before AF is due.
I’m so confused right now as to whether it’s PMS, pregnancy or just all in my head.
When I was TTC the first time around, I had absolutely no symptoms during my TWW and when I took a test on the day my AF was due, I had the strongest BFP immediately. So I figured that even though I’m not due until possibly Thursday at the earliest, if I took a test now and I was pregnant that it might just be a very faint positive but I’ve taken 2 tests and both were BFN.
I just want to sleep the next few days away
Sorry for the long rant. I think my OH is fed up of listening to me now and I haven’t got anyone to talk to as nobody know that we’re TTC again.

Thanks Alexis...been a bit down about babymaking but feeling more optimistic now Melly has got a BFP as I'm also 42.

Following her lead and ditching all the technology this month - opks, BBTs - and going to try to be more relaxed. So fed up of it not happening.

Got a positive opk yesterday afternoon so I am hoping that I will have O'd either yesterday or today. We dtd on Saturday night and last night so we have it well covered!

Not working tonight so might even be able to sneak a quick one in if DH is in the mood.

AF is due around the 27th so may I put my name down for that date please Alexis?

Time to start symptom spotting!

 

[Lja23]

Lja23,sarah, pidge ? Looking for updates? Or did I miss any news?

I am cd#21 and around 5dpo. Af due on 20th just wishing time would go faster so we can try properly after hsg test.

Sorry I've just been soooo busy, at the moment I am a week late and still bfn so not sure what's going on, probably late due to stress 😕

Could you have o’d later ? No af means your still in hunni FX

I don't think so as had ewcm and positive opk same time so think it is just stress as have had a lot worry about recently, it has happened once before except this time I have cramps and feel like af is on her way, will head to the doctor soon if nothing happens. 🙄

Yay wolf! I haven't used opks this month but going on the last 2 months cycles I am about 4dpo... I haven't got a clue when I ovulated I tracked nothing and I won't know until af shows her ugly head.
Probably get some pound land tests just for peeing on soon lol

[Nikkibiscuit]

Crikey think we have come crashing down after the highs of December to the lows of January. Sorry to those who are out. I'm just starting BD so won't be testing until right at the end of the month if not just into Feb.

Aim is to be relaxed this month. Roll with it. BD when we can. Every other day if possible but not get my knickers in a twist if OH is too tired.

We have couple nights away booked in Scotland on 31st Jan for my birthday on 3rd Feb. Have booked wood lodge with hot tub and I WILL be sitting in it and drinking a good glug of champers. So just gonna look forward to that....Hope AF doesn't get me by then so we can have hot tub sexy time. Lol. Good luck everyone still in x

[Alexis2017]

I am around 8dpo, af due Sunday 21st and we have our next fertility clinic appt 30th to discuss hsg results which were normal as told on the day of test. Hoping I get lucky with a Bfp on 13th cycle. Had lots of pulling and poking sensations and very hungry thirsty tired...but all could be af on her way. I am tempted to do a wee sneaky test mid week but will see

 

[Melly41]

I am thirsty all the time and have been since my bfp. Im drinking about 8 or 9 pints of fluids a day! Having lemon squash has helped. Maybe 13 is your lucky number. I really really hope so.would be great to have you in the sept mummies thread.will be stalking this week x

I work in Glasgow and lived their 13 years, just moved to Ayrshire in July, yeah I drink loads and still thirsty, mouth so dry. I would be love to join you . I have wee pinchy sensations time to time. No idea what they are have been on both sides at diff times.

I am going to remain hopeful at the expense of being let down. Af due around Sunday I reckon. At the hsg test the doc said I was about to ovulate and I got a pos oak next morn so reckon I ovulated 1 week ago or so x
