Who's testing round about 21st of July? Fancy being mental together?

Ok so best guess is OV sometime in the past 3 days. Should really wait until 21st to test going by previous cycle length.

I'm not a good 2 week waiter. Am impatient and mental and a particularly avid symptom spotter. Please come and keep me company in this fortnight of doom...........

I think I'm pregnant, finally! Just done a test! I got a faint line but not that faint iykwim, and I tested during the day so will try again tomorrow first thing in the morning :)

Hi all sorry no more BFPs Sad
Trying to wean self off MN for similar reasons to Kitty. Am thinking about this all too much.... Although its easy to say that pre-OV when mind is occupied with constant shagathon. Less easy when in 2WW limbo....
Good luck for next month anyway

Yeah it's just I've had so many weird symptoms and loads of cramps then still nothing keep checking cm and it's totally clear so at a day late I really though gosh maybe..... Just really don't want to end up like poor winkle this month on like cd43, it's bad enough without the extra length!
As for mn it has become abit of an obsession, and I only started it 2 months ago after mc looking for support/ answers, I have found it helpful but on the other hand I'd never struggled with the 2ww before or tested earlie etc I was able to just think we've done what we can and see what happens, I have found because I'm reading it every day it's on my mind every day and plus if stress may have played a part in delayed ov/ af I don't want to risk it?! May see what happens in the next week and try a month without it, although I will find it hard!!!

Thanks Lisa, I was stupid to test but I thought how nice a day off would it be in I was pg!! Stupid but my body is playing silly buggars obviously as I've had so many strange cramps etc last week and yet no af?! No sign at all of it, the frustrating thing is I think we should have carried on dtd and maybe it was late but at cd22 last time of a normally 28-32 day cycle you dont think there's any point cd34 today!
Thing is Its not that I'm not pg that would make me as obviously but it's no mans land where your waiting to start again in limbo, dh wants me to come of mn aswell this month as he thinks I'm putting to mch pressure on myself and thinking about it too much Confused

Bfn Sadso depressed now I knew it would be but you can't help but hope especially as af is later then last month and last test was 5 days ago

kittykatsforever · 23/07/2012 12:47

Sorry valium Sad
It does suck when you get the early bfn, hopefully it may still be wrong but if not fx for next month
Hopefully Lisa you may still get bfp, these stupid symptoms have plagued us all this month havnt they Sad

valiumpoptarts · 23/07/2012 12:28

Cracked. Tested. Bfn. I actually dont know how its possible to have so many pregnancy symptoms and not get a bfp?! I'm doing the expensive proper tests too. Wish Af would just hurry up now as I am totally fed up :(

Lisa [ shakes stern finger] lol
Every day lol well if it's easier for you to do that then go ahead, I've been tempted but glad I've left it now, ignorance has been bliss this wkend and It would have wound me up getting a bfn again, have you used the frer ones or just cheapie? And are you going to leave it now or test tomoz aswell?

I never tell my dh I'm doing them either lol
Nor does he know I have 8 hiding away In my cupboard at the moment either Blush
I think I may wait till wed if af doesn't show before, it's my day off with dd tomorrow and I don't want to be depressed first thing if I test and its a bfn!
When are you thinking Lisa?

valiumpoptarts · 23/07/2012 10:11

Lol at lisamol and hiding your poas addiction from.your dh, glad I'm not the only one! Spoke to dh this morning and we have 'agreed' that I won't poas until weds. Af is due Tuesday so apparently 'that's like a free test anyway'. Am not convinced I will last that long, just trying to be too busy to go buy a test. I also passed out yesterday which I'm hoping is a sign of low iron levels due to impending bpf rather than a sign that I'm not very well Confused

kittykatsforever · 22/07/2012 14:52

No but like I say I dont really get signs, she likes to jump out when I least expect it!!

Well they do say they are accurate from the day before af due but with a short lp maybe it would be better to test when your late? I would think you would be ok from a day late but I have seen other threads one where the girl didn't test pos till 8 wks late?!? That's got to be the real extreme of unusual but I guess af arrival or not is the only way you will get a good idea
Sorry is that helpful not sure?

Oh Valium, you fit in with us so well, we are all hopeless poas addicts!!!
I'm just hoping doing the cb trial next mcycle will feed my addiction enough that I'm actually going to hold off testing til late or not at all! she says not really believing herself

valiumpoptarts · 21/07/2012 19:01

Oh Dulcet that is rubbish :( Getting AF on a special date is crap at the best of times but when you're ttc it seems particularly unfair.
I cracked this morning and poas. I have no self will what so ever. Still a bfn and yet I still feel nauseous so either a) sticks are rubbish or b) I am a total lunatic destined to literally piss my money away. Going to be strong now and hold out till Tuesday, if for no other reason than I don't get paid until Monday and my overdraft is getting problematic!
Fingers and toes crossed for everyone who's still holding out hope for this month and huge hugs to those who are now on the wait for August.

Thinking my AF is imminent by the end of the day. Shes kept herself low key but decided my 10yr anniversary to show up. She must know something to pick the most inappropriate times!

August feels so far away. Sad

I'm sorry Lisa, it's so shit isn't it, I'm really pissed off today just want af to fuckin well start if she's going to!!! I'm determined next month just not to do any tests it just makes me miserable because I know I'm not pregnant and now I have to wait before I can do anything!!
The friends or announcement thing is just a killer, I'm constantly waiting for someone else to tell me they are pregnant before me!! Come join me in the cave
