Hi Starlight, sorry for delay checking in... the wait to Ov is nearly as hard as the 2ww for me so I've been trying not to come on here too much because I think if anything it makes me obsess more.

I looked for an update in your other forum posts and it looks like the witch got you - sorry Onto this month and lots of BDing, lol.

I'm still struggling with worries that something is wrong with me or hubby, even though we conceived LO early 2010... that's a while ago now. I just keep hearing about friends conceiving in their first month of trying after getting their periods back after their first LO. I so wish that had happened to me so I didn't have to put myself through this TTC stuff and all the doubts!

Aw hun try not to worry. I remember the midwife saying to me to be careful because you're extra fertile in the first few months after having LO so maybe that was the case with your friends too.
I think this TTC can be a stressful business. I was lucky enough to conceive Maia in the first cycle after having my coil removed so I didn't have to really go through it last time either. I hope we both get out BFP's soon
Sorry I didn't update this thread that the witch got me, I thought I did but I was posting on a couple of others so I guess I just got mixed up. It's crazy I honestly felt pregnant and was shocked to get that BFN. I think I wanted it so bad I brought all the symptoms about myself. I hope that doesn't happen everytime or I'll go really crazy...

That's why I'm worried though - I should have been extra fertile because I got my period back in November after BFing LO, but we've still not been able to conceive so far despite trying.

I am just a natural worrier though! Hopefully we will both be able to look back at this in 6 months or so when we are pregnant and wonder why we stressed out so much.

I'm a natural worrier too and I hope that in the next couple of months we will both be worried about being pregnant instead of not being pregnant

Hi girls, how are you all doing so far this month? I'm on cd5 so waiting to start POAS tomorrow with my cbfm. My cycles have been short lately, 25/26 days with a 13/14 day LP so I'm trying to take plenty of vitamin C as it is supposed to help with progesterone. Expecting to get my peaks on cd11 and 12 and me and DH are off work next week so will hopefully have plenty of time and energy for bding!

This will be our 4th cycle of trying, I'm getting impatient already altho it took 7 months last time and I was 2 years younger...!

Hi ladies, just checking back in. I'm 3dpo today on cycle 3. Time to enter the dreaded TWW again

LP was still too short last cycle (9 days) but two days longer than the month before, so hoping for a better one this month! I'm only 11 days LP normally, so not too far off now!

Hope everyone else is doing well! x

Hi ladies, thanks for the updates
Captainj1 good luck with the progesterone and I hope it makes a difference this cycle. Dan-o I'm glad things are looking better for you entering the 2ww. Keep us up to date with any news.
good luck and to you both
Well I'm confused today. I'm on CD7 of my 27 day cycle and have EWCM. This happened last month too so it could be normal for me, although I've never checked my CM before so can't say back further than last cycle.
What do you think it means? Does it mean I might be o'ing early and have a long LP or am I getting EWCM longer before o'ing than usual?
So confused

Hi starlight, I've had the same thing the last few cycles - tons of ewcm from cd 7 to cd 10 and then O on cd 11 or 12. Felt v horny during the ewcm phase but held off until cd 10 as was saving my energy! But this month I think we will start bding as soon as we get the ewcm, maybe just doing every other day until cd10 and then every day until cd14 or so. Maybe we just get more aware of our ewcm as we TTC, maybe we get more as we get older? We are supposed to be at our sexual peak after all lol!

Cheers hun, I was thinking its probably the best idea to get BDing right away too.
And why not? As women at our sexual peak

I quite often start my fertile phase around CD7 and ovulate approx CD12, so it's definitely possible! Do you use OPK? I find them great for tracking ov/LP x
