After 6 days of random spotting, AF came yesterday, 4 days early.

I've been off of birth control since March - assuming July was just a funky month, still trying to regulate.

I did have a positive OPK on July 26 but no EWCM.

I'm switching OPK to Clear Blue with the smiley faces and purchasing preseed for our next attempt. Third month TTC first baby, age 34.

Frustrated but it's only been 2 months so far.

I am rooting for all of you! Baby dust to all.

Hi ladies. I'm 16 dpo today. Af was due between Monday gone or today. No sign at the moment. I haven't tested since Sunday night, but I have no signs so thinking I might do a test when I get home from work. FX!!!

A lot of people are saying good things about pre seed/ conceive plus but it's definitely someone I will be using if not caught next cycle. I have already brought it lol.

@ruby sorry to hear that AF has gone early. That was me last cycle. AF came 3 days early. Really annoying but not long until you can try again.

@dragonfly good luck on your TWW

@joyfryer we're due the same time? Any news on AF?

@tashuur AF due today. No signs or spotting whatsoever. Achy boobs and dead tired. Didn't test this morning bc I'm sick of seeing BFN.....

@Ruby0709. So sorry AF showed up early for you. That was me a couple months ago when I was showing a lot of symptoms but AF came 4 days early then last month it was 2 days late but I think my cycles have been trying to regulate as I am typically a 28-day cycle. I know it can be frustrating sometimes, but don't give up; you will get your BFP when you least expect it.

@Tashuurr. Good luck with your testing. I hope you get a BFP. Keep us updated.

@JoyFryer777. Are you having any other symptoms besides boobs being achy and being tired?

Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone on here waiting to test and get their BFP's.

Lower backache and white cm

All symptoms I had of last pregnancy but BFN on all tests.........

@joyfryer777. Not sure if you mentioned this, but do you take your BBT in the morning?

I don't temp.... did for a while last time TTC but it was too much. I'm trying not to obsess as much as I did last time but it's just as stressful to be honest. I got my positive HPT last time at 12 dpo

Tested when I got home. Bfn... af must be on its way. So annoying that they are clearly not regular. I was always regular before starting BC. It's really annoyed me that they're now like this. Especially when non hormonal coil isn't supposed to affect your cycles.
I wish I never went on anything :(

Aw Tashuur sorry to hear that! I know they really don't tell you about the effects that BC can have on your cycles but I suppose when you are trying to prevent it is the easiest way! So hard to understand how some people get pg on first try and others take longer.

I know everyone is different just tricky to understand when there is no explanation.

Best of luck next cycle!
