spunky March thread

Meant BFN, not BFP...but am sure that was obvious! Wishful thinking

sticklebricksuk have you been tested for PCOS? They do an ultrasound test for that?

God it is so hard isn't it - am on day 32 now and if my AF comes tomorrow at least that will be two months in a row on a 33 day cycle (POAS tonight, BFP). At this point I don't care how regular they are, am just praying I actually ovulate next month, then I can at least hope for a BFP and stop worrying there is something major wrong :( Here's to lots of indulging over the AF period.

Zumm I'd actaully like it if AF arrived tomorrow as I'm going away for the weekend and could indulge in all those things - and at least I would have had a 38 day cycle for 2 months in a row so that would at least mean it was regular for the moment, if not rather long.
I am 30, and DH is 36. I actually went to the docs on day 37 last month to say "where is my period, what is going on", and she was brilliant and sent me for bloods even though it's only been about 4 months. I have to go back this week, as when I phoned for results receptionist said "oh you had a lot taken, let me see; normal, normal, normal, normal ... ahh ... you need to come and see the doctor. You're going for an ultrasound right?" Me: "what, no, no-one has contacted me". Her: "we'll make you an appointment then to see the doctor". Me: "well can you tell me what's up, you've worried me now". Her: "no, I'm not a doctor, I don't understand, come in on Wednesday". Me: "erm ok".
Panicking now. Actually might do a specific thread about it, see if anyone can help.

Well the witch has arrived for me on her super charged broom causing much pain and annoyance!!!! I guess it'll have to be next month after all. Stupid witch.

As Zummsays, this stuff is major headfuckery!! I wish we could all just get accidentally pregnant at a convenient time and all this crap would never be an issue!!!

Hi all, just checking in again. Day 37 today, and no AF, and a negative test this morning. Fed up today, struggling at keeping positive and not bursting in to tears at my desk. Having major mood swings, cried on DH on Sunday (in the queue for the tip) then Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday absolutely fine, in a what will be will be, it's early days ttc (cycle 4 trying) etc etc. Then today for some reason I'm really down in the dumps. I thought that last months 38 days was a blip, but it looks like this month is going to be even longer. I'm getting worried that this means that there's something wrong with me, and I'm broken. I'm not liking this TTC thing!

Sorry about that broody. Get the out this evening!

It's fair to say that I am a bit confused... I'm pretty certain that I'm out for this month too but my body is not behaving itself!!

I've had a little spotting since Monday which hasn't come to anything but got a BFN this morning (AF due today). Sorry if there's TMI coming.... Monday and Tuesday, didn't need to wear any pantyliners or anything - just when wiping. Was a pale pink/red and very mucusy! Today there's been a little more but it's been brown, like very thick mucus. Not enough to have needed any sanitary wear but I had it on as I was convinced AF would rear her ugly head!! I would usually have a tiny bit of spotting that would get a little heavier throughout the day and then all hell would break loose overnight so I'm confused with what's going on.

Have had none of my other AF symptoms apart from sore boobs but they haven't been the usual soreness!!

Could this be linked to my mc in January? This would be my second AF since then. I'm pretty much convinced there ain't going to be a baby coming to me in December!

I'm guessing I just need to wait it out for a few more days and see what happens. Just needed to get it off my chest and if anyone has any ideas/advice/bottle of wine handy I'll happily accept!!!!

P.S. Sorry for the length of this post!!!!!!

Great news issimmareally pleased for you!

BFN and Aunty Flo in one day for me, booooo

Nevermind, roll on next month!

This too Ribs: www.babyandbump.com/trying-to-conceive/46523-can-you-ovulate-twice-one-cycle.html

Twice a month! I can't even manage once, now you're just showing off Ribs ;-)

I found this for you online by googling just now (below), but it was on Yahoo answers so not sure how accurate, twice doesn't seem possible at separate times (though I wonder if one of the multiple ovulation eggs could be delayed somehow??) It only takes once though so hopefully if you're trying for both suspected times you'll get lucky with the real one!

Can a woman ovulate more than once during each cycle?
A woman cannot ovulate more than once during each cycle, therefore she cannot get pregnant more than once during a cycle. Multiple ovulation can occur and is when two or more eggs are released in a single cycle. Both eggs are released during one 24 hour period and are responsible for the birth of fraternal twins. It is believed that this may occur in as many as 5-10% of all cycles but does not result in that many twins due to a type of miscarriage referred to as the ?vanishing twin phenomenon.?

Congrats issi and dangermousy

I think I remember dangermousy from a prev thread somewhere as we'v been in same mc boat. Im thrilled for you both.

cass if you've a hol booked then thats when you'l get your bfp - right before you go.

Im very confused, thought id ov'd very early around day 8 or 9 which I put down on the clomid. But i got big thick line EWCM and ov pain yest and today.

Does anyone know if you can ov twice in a month on diff dates?

Congrats issimma and dangermousy! Lots of positive thoughts to you! I don't think I ovulated this month based on temps but you never know, will test this friday to see if, by some miracle I'm pregnant this month and the thermometer was wrong! also am seeing the doc tomorrow to talk about my temps and ask if sometimes it takes a while to ov after coming off the pill. On the bright side have a hol booked for may, at this rate I'll be able to enjoy that (desperately trying to be optimistic!) x

Hi dangermousey

First off - congratulations!! Sticky thoughts are coming your way from me!

I'm in exactly the same position as you - mc in January at 5 weeks and on second cycle of trying.

TMI coming... Had a little more blood throughout the morning (watery and pale red when wipe) so not that hopeful but who knows??!!!!

Going to try and hold off to the end of the week before testing again if AF doesn't arrive.

Hello all, I have been lurking reading this thread but not posted till now - just dying to share my news with someone: I got a BFP yesterday!! Had an early MC (at 6 weeks) in January, and this was my second cycle of trying post-MC so am extremely excited but also shitting myself very worried about it going wrong again :(

Just wanted to offer some reassurance to those of you who are testing before AF is due and getting a BFN: i tested on Thursday last week, 2 days before AF was due, with a superdrug early response test, and got a BFN. Got really upset, thought it was over for the month, so went and had a nice steak lunch on saturday and a glass of wine. Only noticed when I was going to bed on Saturday that AF hadn't arrived yet, and she's never late.

So did another superdrug test on Sunday morning (ie. when AF was 1 day late) and got a BFP!! Did a CB digital this morning (monday) to make sure, and it said: pregnant: 1-2 weeks.

So I would say don't write off the month if you get a BFN before AF is due - wait until the day after she was due and test again - you might get an amazing result like me!

Please all send hopeful thoughts my way that this one will stick - I know it's very early days and am already checking my knickers for blood every hour like a frenzied madwoman :(

Congrats issimma!! That's great news.

I think I might be out. Got a BFN this morning although 2 days before AF. Feeling decidedly un-pregnant and had a little (TMI alert!) blood after sex last night and fri. Usually get that when AF just about due. Boobs aren't anywhere near as sore as they were when I tested positive in Jan but they do feel different to normal boob pain at AF! Trying not to be too hopeful and get my hopes up that there might be something there. Don't have any other symptoms apart from some stabby like pains in tummy over the weekend.

I've been trying SO hard not to symptom spot but it eventually gets the better of you! Sorry, rant now over!

Sorry to hear that zumm

Fingers crossed issimma

Will be POAS time in T-6 days..... Too soon still, right? Haven't been pregnant before and no symptoms as described by other peps on MN. Still, going to try and distract myself till then and not test!

AAraragagaraaghhhh.
