Sorry about your bfn Squirrel. I am 19 dpo, and still getting bfns on hpts. I'm awaiting results from blood test done on Tuesday.
I had bleeding/spotting for 6 days from 9dpo-14dpo. I've also had fatigue, slight nausea, dark/sensitive nipples, slightly heavier breasts, loss of appetite and vile mood swings!!! If I'm not pregnant, there is something most definitely wrong with me!!
I have PCOS, so cycle is anything but regular, but cycle has never really been shorter than 35days. Last pregnancy I was well past 21 dpo before I got a bfp on hpt.
I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Sorry about bfn Squirrel. All sounds confusing ... :-( I guess, give it another couple of days and test again ... and then maybe a visit to the GP for a blood test?

TheNewMrsC · 24/11/2011 08:54

Morning squirrel sorry about your BFN :(

Not sure what is going on maybe leave it another few days if still BFN then maybe visit gp ?

Can u ask did you still have af with mirena ?

Squirrel77 · 24/11/2011 08:34

Hi ladies. Another BFN for me this morning.

But 15 DPO, temps are still high (if anyone cares to look at my chart the link is below)

Very light spotting for last two days. This is only my second cycle since Mirena removed two months ago, but my last length between OV and AF was 11 days.

D'ya think I'm upduffed or is my body playing tricks on me? Why are my temps still high if I'm not preggo? Going quietly insane here Confused

Interesting to hear about the false negatives by the way. DH thinks I am crazy that after I said that I thought the Ebay HPTs and the ones from Poundland were duds...

Hi to our new joiners let's hope we all have a good month Smile

Yeah Lucy I was the same with dc1 found out at 5 weeks I do remember one symptom very clear though I had excruciating pain which when I look back was implantation cramps , but at the time pregnancy didn't even cross my mind !!

Oh will have a wee look at the website thanksSmile

Anyone testing soon ?

www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test/dpo-chart.php?dpo=10

Ladies - have you seen this site? Select how many dpo you currently are and it tells you likelihood of getting a bfp.

One results from pg women are included so any bfn listed is a false neg. makes interesting reading!!

sigh

Lucyx · 23/11/2011 20:49

Congrats Wifey- that's amazing news!! Let us know if you'd been having Amy symptoms? And am I right in thinking you're 11dpo?

Mrs C - keeping everything crossed for you.

How's everyone else doing?

I'm feeling no symptoms, other than still being exhausted. But work is so busy that I can easily blame that! Still think at 5dpo I probably wouldn't feel any symptoms anyways ... But last time I was pg I didn't find out until 4/5 weeks so I can't remember how I felt at this stage!

Cosmogirl · 23/11/2011 20:33

Hi LB - of course, the more the merrier. I also have a feeling about this cycle and if it turns out I'm not I'm going to have to have a serious chat with myself about all these weird goings on in my body!

MrsC - I would say that is a pretty good sign. If it is pink in colour that sounds like it could be implantation. I am crossing everything for you! Keep us posted.

11dpo now cosmo. just jumped tight on to MN there after - just been to the loo and when i wiped (sorryTMI!) i had very little but very clear light light light pink spotting .... who all thinks this is a good sign ???

or am i just kidding myself and its af on her way?

OP posts:
Cosmogirl · 23/11/2011 15:45

I know - bonkers isn't it? I didn't have many symptoms with DD - nipples a bit itchy and felt hotter than normal. Again, could have not been 'real' symptoms.

Sorry for BFN. How many DPO are you now? Fx for you.

TheNewMrsC · 23/11/2011 15:28

Aw cosmo bet you wouldn't have even noticed the spot at any other time !! Did you have this kind of thing during first pg?

It's amazing the things we notice in the 2ww - last night Af style cramps in my tummy and a weird dull ache in my lower back I was convinced it was implantation so did Internet cheapie this morning and got BFN Sad

Now just back to the realisation that af on it's waySad

Cosmogirl · 23/11/2011 15:19

Huge congrats Farmerswifey! Is it your first DC? I did about 8 tests with DC1! Still have them all in a box. How many dpo were you and was it an instant strong line?

How's everyone else doing? Hanging in there?

Well, I'm 6 dpo today and feeling sluggish today after a real burst of energy/organisation yesterday. Felt like I was in nesting mode. Don't laugh but I have another bizarre symptom I've spotted - an itchy spot on my head. Has been itchy on and off all day and is really annoying. That's it though. Could really use a nap this afternoon but DD not so keen so trying to drag self through until DH gets home from work.

TheNewMrsC · 23/11/2011 14:09

Wow in your first month well done !!!Grin

Congratulations to you and your DH Grin

Congratulations!!!!!!

farmerswifey · 23/11/2011 13:46

Did two internet cheapies this morning, Hubby rushed out to get a couple of First Response (just to be sure); Four sets of two lines later I'm Pregnant Grin

I'm in a state of shock at the moment - I can't quite believe it.

Will keep my fingers crossed for everyone else x

TheNewMrsC · 23/11/2011 11:30

Hi medusaSmile not really a big drinker but I wouldn't worry about abstaining from alcohol baby doesn't feed from you during 2ww so you wouldn't do any damage as long as you don't overdo it . Plus it will take your mind off your 2ww !!

Star - I think there is a chance just not sure how big it is ? Sorry can't be more help . When is your af due ?

OP posts:
starchildmum · 23/11/2011 10:01

Hi there. Had intercourse 4 D PREO. Any chances here??

MissMedusa · 23/11/2011 09:05

Are you ladies abstaining from alcohol during your 2ww?

What with all the Christmas parties coming up I hate to have to pass up the good cheer for nothing but wouldn't want to damage any potential sprogs.

Cosmogirl · 22/11/2011 19:54

Mrs C - you just [ahem] insert a finger and feel for your cervix. Feels a bit like a donut shape - with opening in the middle. It is more of a dimple if you've not given birth vaginally - larger like a slit if you have. There's a good website at the beautiful cervix project with lots of pics! I think I agree though that it isn't meant to be a very reliable sign, but I think mine is often soft and squidgy and low and open before I start to bleed. At the moment it is very high up, small and hard. Who knows if it is a sign...only time will tell I guess.

You are doing very well not to test yet! Fx for you.

Squirrel - haven't had lots of wind but have been very bloated since 2dpo really so there may be something in it. Here's hoping! Think it can be due to increased progesterone.

Welcome to the new ladies and thanks for the list. I like a good list farmerswifey.

6 DPO tomorrow. Bring it on!

TheNewMrsC · 22/11/2011 19:34

No it's not it's due on 25th haha clearly I am getting impatient BlushGrin

TheNewMrsC · 22/11/2011 19:24

Welcome signet ! My af due on 24th as well !! Although I have had serious af style cramps in my lower back all evening Sad I feel lime they could just appear any minute !Sad

Hahaha squirrel I don't know if that's a sign or not but I'm glad I don't work with you hahahaWink did anyone notice ?BlushBlush

Jenn1982 · 22/11/2011 17:57

Thank you MrsC and LFT. Have had a few symptoms, mostly tiredness and sensitive nipples. The 6 days of bleeding lightly was the biggest. I've also had loss of appetite quite a bit, and chocolate, although still tasting lovely, doesn't seem to taste the same.
I am desperately hoping that I don't have to wait until monday for the results!!!

Good luck for tomorrow squirrel. Fingers crossed.
