Hi, I think you joined up same time as me & are also on month 1, just wondered how you're getting on & when are you due to test?? :\)

    Hi katyjo! Thanks for asking image. Well, I'm on CD26 today (counting first day of withdrawal bleed as CD1) and so far...not a lot has happened!

    My symptoms (not of pregnancy methinks!):

    CD5-21 Creamy CM
    CD20-22 Sore nipples
    CD22-23 Sticky CM
    CD24 Sticky then creamy then runny white CM
    CD25 Sticky/creamy CM

    So really, who knows what is going on! I got excited about the sore nipples, hoping I would ovulate a few days later, but have had no signs that ovulation has happened really. No EWCM at all, no odd pains, no cervix movement, nada. It's getting me down a bit, to be honest, and I'm starting to wonder if I should stop checking for signs altogether because it's not helping me feel better.

    We have been BD'ing every other day since CD6, to keep ourselves covered, but I am certain I'm not pregnant, since I don't think I've ov'd and I have no symptoms. It would be very lucky to get pg in the first month too! So really, I'm just expecting AF will show up sometime, although I have no idea then that will happen either, because I've got no PMS symptoms. Not planning to test at all this month unless I start getting symptoms as I'm so sure it would be a demoralising BFN. All rather frustrating!

    How are you getting on, hun? xx

    well you never know they say your very fertile after coming off the pill so if you keep bd'ing every other day fingers crossed you'll catch straight away! I think you're wise to stop checking or at least chill out a bit you'll end up obsessed & fit for a loony bin!

    I dont have a clue what my body is doing either TBH used to have regular cycles aprox 4/5 weeks but never kept dates until recently. last one was 46 days! i based this one on a 28 day & thought i ov'd but didnt now i think i ov'd last thurs/fri/sat had lots of EWCM I dont check for it but there was loads (sorry i know tmi) but maybe i didnt who knows! if i did though am due to test around 9th oct that is of course if af does not show. Anyways i'm so impatient i doubt ill last until then to test, just wish i knew what my cycles were & why all of a sudden they have gotten longer :\?.

    as for symptoms sore boobs, grumpy & slight cramps but sure all could af too so i'm not holding out! I didnt really have any with my other 3 babies either only sore boobs, but i started getting violently sick from about 10-11 weeks just when everyone else is stopping!

    Yes, it's very annoying isn't it, nor knowing what's going on! I told my hubby I'm looking for EWCM (he keeps asking if I'm feeling fertile!) but he doesn't really believe it exists! We thought it would be so simple, just a matter of stopping taking the pill *sigh*.

    Still, as you say, it is possible to get pregnant and not have any symptoms. This will be my first time, so I have no prior experience to go by.

    Anyway, thanks for asking Katy, you cheered me up this morning :\).
