Anyone else still waiting?

Just wondering if anyone else is still in limbo?! Now on CD35, no sign of AF, bfn on test (I think, hard to wonder if I imagine these shadows of lines on the ICs). Loads of symptoms but don't want to let myself get excited in case AF shows and it's all in my head. Anyone else in the same situation?

I know what you mean. I'm on CD40, 10 days longer than my usual cycle but no AF and no sign but 2 BFN's so far. So frustrating. Putting it down to a skewed cycle and assuming I'm out but wishing AF would turn up so we can get on with the next cycle.

How long have you been ttc? How long are your cycles normally?

I analyse the lines for way to long. Have been known to get them out the bin to double check!

Hi Elbabdram - I'm glad its' not just me waiting or checking the lines!! This will only be my second cycle ttc#1. Usually my cycles vary by a day or two - I'm usually anywhere between 31 and 33 days - but I'm on CD36 or 37 now and nothing! I'm wondering if I oved late which is causing this. It's frustrating isn't it, as obviously I'd prefer a BFP by miles, but if that's not to be this cycle I want AF to come so we can get on with trying!

I'm on cd 56 now!
Argh!
At first I was enjoying no sign of AF and secretly hoping for pregnancy but took a test last week and bfn.

Just want it to turn up now so that I can get into the swing of it. It's getting me down and it seems like I came off the pill ages ago now.

I should be well into my 2nd cycle now and nearly onto the 3rd but haven't even got through the 1st yet :(

No def not just you MaG!

I have sharp pains in my left side, a bit like ov pains and I have the weirdest tingling in my nipples (tmi) which I've never had before, and I thought I'd had every symptom over the last 7 months.

Like you I'm wondering if I've OV late, but I'm away and we haven't DTD for 8 days so thinking even if it was late there's only another 6 days max before Id have implanted, so just going to keep testing this week and then give up.

So frustrating isn't it!

Sorry you're also in limbo beaver. Is this your first cycle after birth control?

Report
Beaverfeaver2 · 25/08/2014 22:40

Yes, first cycle.

Really hoping I haven't got some underlying problem and it's hard not to think and worry about it

Another day, another horrible bfn. So many symptoms but still nothing on the tests. Or AF.

Hello :)
Can I join you please?

I'm currently on cd35, ucl is 29 days but think my body is still feeling the effects of my last depo shot (April 2013). Had af in June and July but nothing since.

Just a wait and see game isn't it?

It sure is MaGrat.

I've stopped testing now as I'm fed up of seeing bfns. I feel sort of liberated from them actually haha Grin

Hope this thread sees a bfp soon :)

I am now cd58 which I guess means I am about 30 days late!

I have no signs at all, other than being tired.
Bfn 10 days ago.

I have booked a docs appointment tomorrow morning.

I'm thinking they will just make me wait it out but in hoping they are proactive.

I'm new to the surgery so haven't met the doctor before.

Hope he is nice

Come on AF. So red up of waiting for you now.

It has literally taken over my entire thoughts, between that and seeing pregnant ladies everywhere it's hard to think of anything else.

I need cake and wine.

I know right!! Am turning into a mad woman Every day I say I'm done with testing for a while and then the next day I cave! Another bfn tonight although I threw up in my bin at work today!! And dizzy, metallic taste, craving lemons, etc. This is mental. I think I did ov late which would currently put me at 7-8 dpo which I guess is way too early for a hpt anyway?!? Gah!!

I saw on the September bus thread that you'd thrown up in the office bin, you poor love! Your symptoms sound very promising - with my last baby I got a bfp at 10dpo, cd24... Not that I'm encouraging you or anything Wink
It was an ultra early test I used though if I remember rightly. I've been reading through my old ttc threads today toomuchtimeonmyhands

Hi ladies how are we all doing? CD44 here and nothing happening. So strange, nearly 9 months off BC and never happened before.

Oh well I'm resigned to the fact that there's obviously something up with my cycle this month. All symptoms has stopped now as well as getting BFNs so doubt I'll be getting our BFP this side of Xmas Hmm.

Beaver I hope your doc is proactive, although I know when I first came off the pill I went nearly 70 days without AF and my Dr just told me to wait Angry on the plus side as soon as they did come back they were regular (until now!)

MaG, eek about being sick in the bin. Horrible but promising!! When will you be 14dpo? FX for your BFP!

Cherrypie, great news about the EWCM, I hope this is your month!

Cd 59 for me and no sign of anything happening still.

DH is getting emotional so maybe he's the pregnant one!

Not a lot happening here either, cd38 now... Trying to give myself a talking to really as I'm getting carried away. Ttc was dh's tentative idea and if I get obsessed like last time it will put him right off!!
He goes hot and cold about wanting another baby - we have 3 children - so I'm trying to tread carefully. I'm sorry if I post a lot, you ladies are literally the only people I can talk to. I can't talk to my family as I would just get lectured ("why do you want a fourth??"). :(

Feeling very weepy and emotional today, ewcm has disappeared into sticky bitty white stuff. I guess this is my 2ww then? I thought ewcm would be around for longer but hey.

Hope you all have a good day ladies xx Flowers xx

Cd60 now.
Took my 2nd HPT just now and bfn again.

Don't know what's going on!

I'm so fed up

Evening ladies, CD38 with all the symptoms in the book apart from a mutherfudging BFP. DH is making me chuckle though, one day he is convinced I'm pregnant and keeps rubbing my belly and making plans for picking kiddy up from school one day, next he says it's all in my head! Can the men get mood swings? Have a HPT to use in the morning, so keep everything crossed.
