Okay, I'm seeing a lot of congratulations scrolling down and can't WAIT to properly catch up on this thread later today!! I have a feeling this will be a great month ladies!
Just popped on for a second to say I got my peak on CB advanced and blazing positive OPK this morning! DTD last night and will again today and tomorrow. I should ovulate tomorrow so feeling great about timing!! Not often do I get any O pain but having some cramps this morning and bloated. Praying it's a good sign of a nice and strong eggie about to pop!

I'm so sorry AF arrived. I wish you much luck with your new cycle too.
My AF this time has been absolutely horrendous
On Sunday night I was bleeding so heavily all I could do was sit on the toilet for 20 minutes and it was literally dripping like a continual tap. I even took a photo (TMI) in case I ever need to show a doctor. I am not squeamish but the sheer amount of blood scared me. I had to have OH sit outside the toilet in case I collapsed or something. Luckily I didn't but I am left feeling tired today...I expect it has made my anaemia worse.
Anyway CD6 today and AF has nearly gone away finally. Not sure what strategy to use this cycle yet. I feel very much like with all the statistics at my age and all the things against me that I probably have more chance of winning the lottery but like that I guess you have to be in it to win it and so I will keep going for now.
Me and OH have booked 4 days away on the 21st August so something to look forward to and it'll be during the TWW so will keep my mind off of obsessing and testing at ridiculous times. We are going to the coast in Lincolnshire up near where my family are so the girls can splash in the sea which they will love. Where I live in this town we are the furthest from the coast in the UK so we don't get to see the sea that often.
Hope everyone is ok and hope we continue to get some more BFPs. Good luck Alligator that your tests get darker very soon x

Thanks girl. I am not sure I'm ready to call it yet. I feel like I want it to be more obvious and less squinty (and I want to see it on another test). For some reason I'm feeling so anxious and apprehensive that it'll turn into a negative just like last cycle.
Does it seem darker to everyone?

Still early, hoping that BFP is only a couple days away for you!

that sounds awful Dee. Hopefully some time away with dh will let you relax during the tww, and it’s always nice to have a break!
Fingers crossed for the next few days!
Afm: I don’t temp so no way of knowing for sure but I would imagine I Ov sometime yesterday, so today is 1dpo. That’s a looong wait yet!

@Alligator your frer does look darker to me. I don’t blame you for being nervous, it’s just the nature of this whole thing. Being nervous means you care. So send all the warm loving caring energy to whomever is trying to settle in
@Deethehippy oh honey that sounds awful!! I’ve had a couple AFs like that in the last 6 months and it’s totally crazy. Also I have had enormous luck with spirulina tablets, I have been pregnant and/or nursing for almost 9.5 years now (!!!) and I struggle to keep my iron up. But spirulina does the trick every time. It must be a super absorbable source of iron cause in pregnancy it’s always gotten my iron way up (confirmed by blood tests) and I can feel a huge difference in my energy levels when I take it in general. It’s a must-have for me now, and the tablets are so easy to take.

Thank you, I will definitely look into that. I have IBS - D and a very sensitive stomach so I find the usual iron tablets upset my gut quite quickly. I have only ever been able to take a very low dose and not for many weeks. I do have a good diet but I expect my levels are still low.
