It's been 7 weeks since mc but still not af...when to ring the GP?

[GI_Jane]

Just got a christening invitation for my friends baby. It is in March. My first thoughts were, I have to be pregnant by the time that christening comes around. I hate that TTC makes me feel that way.

Did you managed to jump oh bobster?

 

[bobster]

Oh no. I hate it too. Do u think we're putting too much pressure on ourselves? Our bodies are obviously capable of getting pregnant but feel like its never going to happen. Well you have 2 cycles so your odd's are good Jane. Any ovulation signs yet? Are u still feeling it will arrive this weekend? Arm- dtd breifly this morning but it was very rushed and stood up straight after so a lot of his stuff came out again. No bd yest but did bd the 2 days before yest. I think I may have popped my egg today although only had 1 day of ewcm 2 days ago before my positive opk. It's so weird. Anyy in going to class myself as 1dpo tomorrow

So I must have read this thread right before bed last night cause in one of my dreams, Jane announced a bfp. Hope it's true!

 

[GI_Jane]

I'm hopeful for you bobster.

Yes, I think we are putting too much pressure on ourselves

I don't think I've o'd yet and getting a bit frustrated. I think it might be this weekend though as my skin is breaking out which for me is usually hormonally related- anyway I will keep up with the opk's. Cm is watery but not stretchy, no twinges though.

I kind of feel that if it doesn't happen for us this month I'm going to take a break from it and just see what happens. Unfortunately I think I might leave baby and bump for a while too and not look up anything TTC related for a bit. It just feeds my obsession otherwise and I need to try and calm down a bit.

Holy cow Mlm, so do I!

How are you?

 

[mlm115]

I'm good. Kinda feeling similar to you in the sense that I will take a break from trying so hard. This month has been more relaxed so far, which is nice. We have been house hunting which is a great distraction. I should ovulate anytime from 4 to 9 days from now, so hoping I can stay calm and not stress.

 

[bobster]

Oh we'll all be in the 2ww together this month. wouldn't it be fantastic if we all got bfp's. Jane I completely know how you feel. When I was waiting for my positive opk last month I was getting really down and frustrated as I was running out of sticks it took so long. It will come though, try and stay focused on other things while you're waiting. watery cm means its close.

I am thinking the same as both of you girls. I think a break from internet and babyandbump and more of a ntnp is in order for me after this month. I think maybe that will help us all relax a little

Oh ladies, I'm feeling sad for you all. And for me if you decided to steer clear of BnB! I understand the feeling of pressure. At least you ladies have age on your side unlike me! I am CD3 now and having some thoughts about my chart. FF said I o'ed BEFORE my pos OPK and looking at my temps it certainly looks that way. Which does happen apparently!?!?!?! If that's the case then my LP is longer than 10/11 days. But how much time have I spent looking into it. Faaaar too long. Time to chill again. We'll be giving it a good shot this month which hopefully will be about 2 weeks time. Got my B6 on order anyway just in case my LP is faulty. Eating well and no booze still. Hope to pass some positive vibes over to you, don't give up, but give the old forums a miss to really unwind. I'll miss you 8-Here's my chart. I have over-ridden the FF o date to start after my pos OPK but might switch back.

[GI_Jane]

There's been 3 BFPs in the last few days on my Christmas bfp thread. Hope we are next!

Oh mrs phez, thats good re your LP being longer than you thought. Now you are armed with this extra info, next cycle you'll time it different and get your bfp

I saw all those bfps Jane. As wonderful as it is for them, I hate to say it but its hard for me to see. I'm jealous!

 

[GI_Jane]

Me too Mlm.

 

[mackjess]

one of the blp ladies got af today so it was a chemical. I worry so much for the other two as well.

 

[GI_Jane]

That is heartbreaking. My heart goes out to her.

It is not a good day for news, my grandfather passed away this morning so really not feeling up to dtd. Thankfully opk's are still negative but I have brown discharge so I have no idea what's going on. I will see this cycle to the end and then take a break from TTC.

 

[mackjess]

so sorry GIJane.

 

[mlm115]

Oh Jane, so sorry to hear that

As crazy as it sounds coming from me, there is plenty of time for all of us to get our bfps, so if you aren't feeling up to dtd, don't force it. Take care of yourself hun.

 

[GI_Jane]

So I looked up the brown spotting I'm having and according to 'taking charge of your fertility' book, it comes from the sudden estrogen drop you get just before the LH surge and ovulation and is more common in long cycles. So hoping I will get my positive opk later today or tomorrow.

How are you ladies? Bobster are you keeping busy during your 2ww?

 

[bobster]

Hi Jane sorry about your news (hugs) if you don't feel like dtd don't put pressure on yourself. I'm going to take a break after this cycle too. Are you doing your opk's in morning or evening? Hope it comes soon Jane. Afm- had mild af cramps this morning the same as last cycle so probably out. Getting too tired of thinking about it now! Feel like I'm coming down with something too. Bleugh.

 

[GI_Jane]

Thanks Ladies.

Sorry you think you're out bobster, what dpo are you?

I test around 5pm everyday, today's one was negative. I have 6 sticks left so hope I do eventually see a positive. We dtd this morning just in case.

How is the house hunting Mlm? Any signs of ovulation? I think you and I will be in the 2ww together

 

[MrsPhez]

Oh, so sorry to hear about your grandfather Jane
Been offline for a while. DH was off work with man flu and he doesnt really approve of BnB so stayed off for a while.
Good luck Bobster, fingers are crossed for you.
CD6 for me today, how boring.........

 

[mlm115]

House hunting is good, thanks for asking Jane! Fun to picture my future family in the houses we look at. Any ovulation updates?

Mrs Phez, I agree cd 6 or around there is always boring for me too!

How many dpo are you now Bobster?

Afm, am cd 13 and had a lot of ewcm just now. I usually only get it once per cycle, so know that it is my sign of ovulation. We dtd yesterday and will today and tomorrow for sure!
