Awww thanks Apple seed, i am sure i will take you up on that offer at some point. I have ordered some ov tests off the internet so will give them a go once they arrive to see if i am ovulating or not yet as its hard to know without an apperance from AF. I have ordered 25...how long do you think they will last me? (sorry but ive got no idea without AF i was thinking i may need to do one everyday) Please put me straight if you think i am wrong, i am soooo clueless lol. Anyway, good luck hun and i will be keeping my fingers crossed for you xx

Oh and ps Appleseed, that invitation runs to you too....anytime hun. xx

Hi again,

A lot of the girls (inc me, although only recently) fill in a journal in this section. They are worth checking out to get an idea of what others are going through. I was a little apprehensive about starting one, but now I am so glad I did. You get to know others a lot better and also have some great support.

All the very best....x.

Ideally with your OPK (ovulation predicting Kit) you should use them around the middle of your cycle for eg if you have a 28 day cycle then you would use them from day 11- 16 if you wanted to find out when you are ovulating. It is entirely up to you when you do it. You are not going to need to use them around the first week of your cycle or the last week but again that is up to you. You will find that there should be an information leaflet in the pack when you get it, read it carefully.

Welcome to B&B and I hope you get your soon enough xxx

Hey Angie welcome to BnB

My story isnt quite the same as all of yours cos im not actually TTC LOL yeah i know I shouldnt even be here but I came one day asking a question and been here ever since!

I came off Cerazette on the 11th July and on the 14th I had what was spose to be my withdrawal bleed but it was so heavy, clots, bright red (TMI LOL sorry) so I classed that as my first day of AF! And ive had lots of PG symptoms but coming off BCP can give you those symptoms also so now im just waiting for the 11th August to see if anything happens, if not thats fine if so then thats great!

So as you see im a little different to the rest of you LOL! Anyway good to meet ya hun! I hope your stay here is short and sweet

Hi to everyone again who has replyed and thanks so much for your kind words and advice so far.
Suzanne i know exactly what you mean about pregnancy symptoms after coming off the BCP as i came off Cerrazette on July 1st and two to three weeks later i had pretty much convinced myself i was already pregnant as i was feeling odd, more hormonal, sicky, smells realy bothered me (was like that in my first pregnancy almost straight away) and was tired, kept feeling dizzy ect, had cramps but i now know this was just symptoms off coming off the BCP unfortunatly. I was only on cerrazette for about 4 months as i just didnt get on well with it, it made me feel miserable and was spotting for 3 weeks before we decided to ttc. Still havnt had a bleed at all since have stopped taking it so i think its realy messed up my system. Cant believe i am looking forward to a visit from AF but it would give me an idea where we are starting from so to speak. You say your not TTC, so does that mean you are switching BC? Sorry to be nosy.
Anyway i betta scoot as need to get some housework done while my patrners at the gym so we can relax together once he gets home. Speak to you all again soon and thanks again xx
