KTF: are you sure about AF? I still hope/think you are pregnant. Did you test again with FMU?

Junie woke up this morning to full on AF so def no doubts now.

Things I have learned from cycle one that I'll do differently next month ......
1 not test until officially late (was obsessed poas addict for few days there ��)
2. Hide the tests I've bought so can't be tempted!
3. Try not to symptom spot as makes 2ww so long, plus now realise all these things I thought I was feeling were actually nothing!!
Cycle day 1 here I go again .........

Hey Ladies joining you again. Our sway has officially ended, we just want to get pregnant now and I think I went overboard and lost too much weight tbh. Still skipping breakfast and not going crazy with the amount I'm eating but definitely over on protein and fat most days and have cut to zero exercise. Just had our attempt so assuming I do O tomorrow as predicted 10dpo would be Xmas day. Anyone else expecting to be testing that morning?

KTF, I am so sorry the witch found you. I too will be Oing right at the beginning of January if this cycle doesn't work out. Sending you willpower to deal with holiday treats!

pkdream, welcome!

I ran out of Vitex (didn't realize I was almost out, and I get it from the UK which can take 2 weeks). I really hope stopping Vitex suddenly doesn't upset anything. On Monday I will see if I can find some substitute in the interim. I have also been almost snacking. I've been really hungry and eating like 4 meals instead of my usual 2-3. Definitely not always fasting overnight for very long, either. This is never a problem unless Im actively TTC, grr. Early this am I was literally shrieking from the sharp stabbing on my right ovary. I do typically get ovarian pain all cycle long these days, though!

I'm so sorry KTF!! I hope next cycle is your BFP cycle!!

Hello ladies. This is our 5th cycle TTC pink. I am worried and frustrated since it only took us 3 cycles TTC DS. I know 5 cycles is still perfectly normal but it's in my nature to worry and try to solve any potential problems (typical boy mom?!).

This cycle I started Vitex. Pos OPK on CD 13 and 14. DTD on CD10 and CD14. 9DPO I started getting small traces of blood in CM. Tested and BFN. Tested yesterday evening on 10DPO and BFN. This morning there was a bit of blood when I wiped and since brown discharge. Temp is still high.

I don't want to test again until I am late to avoid disappointment.

Can Vitex cause spotting, anyone with experience?

GL to everyone!!

Welcome happy1981! I can relate to how you feel- we are on cycle 5 too! DS1 was a OHW, and DS2 only took 2 cycles.

I took Vitex 400mg of Nature's Way brand 2X a day from AF-O, and I had spotting. Very light like what you mentioned and on the exact same CDs the first cycle I took it. The second cycle I took it, I had actually spotting from CD8-CD15 until I stopped taking it. I no longer take it, since it has that effect on me. I am very sensitive to herbs and medicine in general though.

GL and I wish we all get our BFPs soon!!

Happy, I think this was your implantation. So test again in 2-3 days :-)

Happy, this is also my 5th cycle TTC so I know how you feel. I don't usually spot during my LP on Vitex (though it's common), but I spot up until CD10+ on it which is really annoying since my AF is usually 3 days.

I had some EWCM today. Just a bit, but I've NEVER had EWCM so far after O before. Maybe stopping the Vitex? Trying not to pregnancy symptom spot!

Hey ladies. Just a quick one, I tested and a BFN so I reckon I'm out. AF is due around the 16th so I'll see but I would be ok with not being pg this month.

I'm sorry Mars, fx AF stays aways. You have a great attitude.
