Hi ladies :) me and my fiancé have been trying for a while and I've got to the point where every little thing seems like a possible sign I'm pregnant, now! I was due on my period today but no sign, I've had spots popping up all over the show and I never get spots due to super dry skin. I've got really bad backache and lots of CM at the moment. Only thing is I don't want to go and get excited over nothing like I have the past months. I'm testing at the weekend when my fiancé is home from work's training course but in the meantime would love to chat to someone in the same boat! Thanks ladies :) x

Tmi - cm is just creamy not had any spotting or cramping just this strange nighlung/scratching feeling down there!

Pinkie29 · 20/03/2012 10:08

Still nothing Sad had a little cry last night haha! Day 39! I'm just reluctant to think I'm pg as the test on sat was negative and I have had very long cycle in the past, boobs are a little tender on the underside today but nothing like usual :/

Sorry to hear that MumTum, glass of wine sounds a fine idea! Thank you for the fx all :) I've still got incredibly bad backache on my lower right hand side and today I've had very very light pink spotting. Barely noticeable but just caught my eye. I'm thinking this could be too late for implantation bleed? Not sure though :/ could be AF coming though I never normally spot, she just arrives with a vengeance! Also, no stomach cramps atm and felt very dizzy and sickly today. Bought another test so that if spotting doesn't turn into the witch I'll test again! Fingers crossed pinkie :) x

Pinkie29 · 19/03/2012 15:11

Sorry to hear mumtum Sad well I'm still waiting! 5 days late now on cd38! It's not been unusual for my cycle to last up to 46 days in the past but that's before we were trying, I've found stress greatly affects my cycle Sad will test again sat if nothing by then, that'll be nine days late so surely would show a by then if I was?!

MumTumWanted · 19/03/2012 14:51

I'm afraid I'm out to ladies she just got me the old witchSadSad

Good luck to those still with everything crossed and if not then we can all hold hands again next month during the dreaded 2ww xx

Hi Pinkie :) I know exactly what you mean, so annoying!
No sign of AF yet HappilyMarried so really confused now! Bit of a dull stomach ache but my back is still really achy and I've napped twice already today! What is going on! xx

Pinkie29 · 18/03/2012 11:02

I feel your pain ladies! On our 2nd cycle ttc 1st baby, I've never been pregnant that i know of. Am 3 days late now no sign of af at all and got a bfn yesterday Sad my cycle varies from 33 - 46 days but since coming off the pill in jan they've been 33 days. Normally my boobs are mega sore by now but there's nothing although they are bigger and fuller than usual? I've had a strange niggling/scratching feeling for about a week now where I'd usually get the dull af cramp, praying I ovd late and it's too early to test!

a little rant... Everyone else we know just seems to 'fall' pregnant while on the pill or by accident and I'm like 'really?!' why can't that happen to those of us that want it is much Sad

Happilymarried155 · 18/03/2012 10:26

Hi MumTum :) sounds like we're all in the same boat then! Hopefully you've tested too early and your BFP is still on the way :) like HappilyMarried said, until AF comes it isn't over so you never know! Have you had any other symptoms? :) xx

OP posts:
Happilymarried155 · 17/03/2012 13:14

I'm out in afraid ladies, AF has arrived :( feeling suprisingly ok about it to be honest, I got myself in such a crying mess last month I swore I wouldn't do it again! I'm off to have abit of retail therapy and think positive thoughts about the next cycle! Good luck to you guys tho and keep me posted!! I have my fingers crossed for you both and if not we have each other to crazy with over the next month!!

Mumtum wanted, love the name! It could still be to early don't lose hope :)

Hoping I'm going to hear some BFP news over the few days!!! X

MumTumWanted · 17/03/2012 12:17

Hi ladies I watched your thread the past couple of days and Sad to hear no bfp yet .. I'm kind of in the same place been off the pill since oct but first cycle this month ttc. My cycle never the same length but my letuel phase always 15 days which means I'm due af 20 th march but with sore boobies tearfulness and nausea BlushBlushBlush I'm convicted I am upduffed.. But the 3 tests I've done over the past 5 daysBlush have all (been way too early) and bfn I know I have a few days realistically but I felt so Sad with another bfn this morning

Fingers crossed for us all that af doesn't show up and we could have 2012 babes still! GrinGrin

I was feeling really hopeful but not to be :( but like you say at least we both have someone to chat about it to now :D I feel so much better for being able to speak to someone in the same position so thank you! :) still got a bit of a dull ache but no other AF symptoms, and looooads of CM today (sorry if TMI!) so not got a clue what's going on! I'll keep my fingers crossed for us both cause you never know :D xx

Happilymarried155 · 17/03/2012 10:02

Oh no!! I thought you would get a BFP! Not sure, think tummy feels abit twingjy so AF might be on its way, if I get the chance I will prob test on Monday! Oh well, fingers crossed AF doesn't arrive, if it does at least I now have a crazy cycle buddie to talk too for next month! X

Oh no :( Sadly I also got a BFN! I was a bit shocked really, I'd really got it into my head that it was going to be positive :( big hugs to you. Good news is no AF for both of us, when will you test again? xx

OP posts:
Happilymarried155 · 17/03/2012 07:57

Ooh it's so exciting :D thank you so much for the good luck, straight back at you honey! It would be so amazing to both get BFP's together! I'll let you know as soon as I've done it! AF cramps have died way down today so getting hopeful :D I can't believe seven of your friends are expecting! That's craziness! Three of mine are and I thought that was loads haha! Soon it'll be you though and it'll mean so much when it is :D Awh thank you well I meant it all :) so exciting isn't it! Fingers crossed :D :D xxxx

Yes got mine in the bathroom cabinet ready, haven't told dh that AF hadn't arrived, we have both found the last couple of months quite difficult and sad and I don't want to get his hopes up so thought I'd just do the test in the morning and see what happens-hopefully I will have a nice suprise for him! We have 7 sets if close friends due over the next 6 months :( i so hope we both get the outcome we want tommorow :-) everything's crossed!! Your last comment was really lovely! X
