I’m insanely hormonal today, I’ve cried twice already and it’s not even noon. It’s very unlike me. Wondering if my cycle is messed up from the CP last cycle? I’m only on day 14
And AF is here, early this month 
I was a bit confused as was just pinky brown to start but it’s full on now. I guess my body heard me getting impatient to start the next cycle already as I had a feeling it wasn’t a goer this month!
On the plus side I can have a cold cider in the sunshine today

Enjoy your cider hun, cheers to a new cycleAnd AF is here, early this month

CD1 as well. Here we go again.
AF came 3 days early 
13 DPO BFN and today I found out my best friend was 11 weeks pregnant ( I knew she was - but she didn’t want tell me earlier as I had a 4 week miscarriage in April) . That makes ALL of my friends pregnant now! So gutted I could cry!

1DPO again. Couldn’t test my BBT properly this morning as I slept terribly - not a good start. I’m focusing on health and fitness during my two week wait instead of LH levels and every twinge.
To everyone who’s keeping up with their friends pregnancy announcements on Facebook etc: take a break from social, it will do your mental health wonders.

No AF here yet, according to my tracker my cycle is now day 33, but I guess that’s pretty normal when you first come off birth control. Just wondering when I do another test to see if it’s not just being out of a cycle?
Also I just read a couple of Reddit threads on the cost of children and I’m absolutely panicking about how we’d manage anything when (if) we have kids, people reporting they pay £1800 a month[/] for nursery fees
and talking about how bad climate change is at the moment and how we’re not stopping anything. I want kids but I dunno if it’s a good idea now

Obviously it depends where you are on the country.
i came off birth control and had a weird first long cycle but it sorted itself out after month 1 x
I’m also another one with a really long cycle first round after coming off the pill! It’s shortening down now that I’ve been off for a few months so don’t worry at all.No AF here yet, according to my tracker my cycle is now day 33, but I guess that’s pretty normal when you first come off birth control.

Also costs wise that does seem really high and you will find a way to manage! Climate change shouldn’t dictate your decisions either when other people have kids too
Don’t let climate change dictate whether you have children or not. In terms of costs, do you have any childcare family wise? We are lucky as my little boy is looked after atm until he starts nursery which is funded at the age of 3 and I dropped my hours at work. When we have our next baby he will be in nursery and we are fortunate enough to repeat the process. However, I don’t know anyone who pays £1800 a month. I wouldn’t work if that was the case.No AF here yet, according to my tracker my cycle is now day 33, but I guess that’s pretty normal when you first come off birth control.

Nope, we live in a really high cost of living area and both our parents are from the other side of the country, over 2 hours drive away. No relatives around this way. I did recently have an opportunity to move closer to our parents with a new job but OHs locked into a contract down here plus we can’t afford to move at present. Career wise if I give up as I’m a registered NHS professional I have to go back within two years or I lose my registration so we have to pay childcare…
If you’re NHS then check your workplace, they may have a nursery with lower fees. I’m also NHS and my workplace nursery is a touch cheaper. Luckily you will be entitled to a good maternity package!

Please don't let the climate be the deciding factor.
I'm NHS too and have given up, but my circumstances are slightly different I fell pregnant with twins and nursery would of actually cost us £2000 a month.
But if you can reduce your hours down at work you can actually still work and pay decent nursery fees without it breaking the bank.
Also NHS professional here (not pregnant) but if you take 2 years out, you can re-gain/register depending on area. Mine is like 1,000hours.
Don’t let that stop you.
Also I’ve learnt this lesson recently, life really is unpredictable and there’s no point worrying about every eventuality as it might not even happen! Take it as it comes

Thoughts and prayers again to those in/heading into their fertile window in yet another British heatwave 
I keep checking the weather forecast then checking which CD I'm onThoughts and prayers again to those in/heading into their fertile window in yet another British heatwave
CD1 for me. Feels like I’ve waited ages because I ovulated slightly early this month. Going into our 8th cycle. We are going to see what happens this month, if nothing then we will go private for initial fertility investigations.
Good luck
I hope this month is our month. We are in a similar position timewise.CD4 for me, my periods always short and only last about 3 days.
This month is our first time ttc again, fell pregnant earlier this year (1st time lucky) which then ended in a ruptured ectopic at 7 weeks in May. Had to have my left tube removed and advised to wait 1 cycle. I have just finished my second period which we agreed we'd have before ttc again.
According to flo I'll be in my ovulation window from next Tuesday but will also be monitoring CM. Super excited to be trying again but also feeling abit anxious as it can definitely now take longer and also about having another ectopic!
