Hi ladies, how is everyone enjoying their holidays? Where are you in your cycles and any BFP yet or waiting to test?

AFM, either 6 or 7DPO today and no symptoms at all, looking out for the tender/sore BB's that I got with my first but nothing zip :( . We had a BD marathon but skipped 2x days which was the crucial days but oh well, fingers crossed. AF should arrive on Mon/Tues.

* TTC baby #1 for 1.5 years
(tried naturally for 1 year - anovulatory cycles)
(medicated Fertomid cycles for 5 months)
BFP - 1 Sept 2015 - un medicated cycle
TTC baby #2 - October 2017
BFP - 3 January 2018

TTC baby #3 in 2021

Hi Ladies

Thought I would send one last message. Saw my FS this morning and he is very hopeful that it won't be long till i get my BFP! He wants me to do Fertomid one month on and one month off. He has also actually prescribed me a very light anti-depressant too, just something to take the edge off as I realised how much this ttc has consumed me physically and emotionally - I have had two panic attacks in the last couple months which is very new to me so I think everything has just got on top of me a bit. So hopefully that will help me chill out a bit more! We have decided to do IUI in April should we not get a BFP before then. He is very confident I won't need to go this route but I am still not so sure but trying to be positive.

Thank you all for being here for me this year, for your words of encouragement, laughs and constant support!! Wish we could all go for a glass of wine together!! I will check in to see if there is any news but lets pray for Christmas miracles for all of us!

Sending lots of love & babydust and a FABULOUS 2018 year ahead!

Hey Nicola..it was CD25. Using the clearblue opk. You are right it is frustrating when these things happen and confuse us.

Wish you all a Christmas baby miracle

Hi ladies

@Jaybee & @Bellyhearts have you started your opk's yet? Any smiley's yet? xxx
@Mesh what cycle day was it? I also started a few days early this month and very heavy but also lasted two days. So confusing! I don't think its anything to worry about unless you bled for longer like a week. our cycles can change without any warning unfortunately, very frustrating! are you doing opk's? xx

How is everyone else doing? I think of you all often!

AFM...not sure of CD but I think I just ovulated, felt some pains on Saturday and my back was sore. We have bd a couple times in the last five days so who knows! just enjoying the christmas festivities now, i've had a few friends here from London and Durban visiting so it's been so nice catching up with them. It does mean a fair amount of drinking on school nights but who cares its December!!! haha!!! Seeing my FS on Wednesday so will see what's he's got to say with regards to next year.

Sending lots of babydust and love to you all. Can't believe its a week till Christmas!!
Wishing you all a christmas miracle xxxx

Hi Ladies

Hope everyone is doing well and are looking forward to the festive break.

AF was due on 15/12 but came on 12/12- heavy flow but lasted just ONE day. Never has happened before in my life.

Is this something to be concerned over? Should I call my FS to discuss? Or is it a common thing?

Appreciate the advice
