Yay kitty! Great news!

kittykatskumkwat · 22/09/2012 08:23

Thankyou all you've all been so great and kept me going and positive after last month GrinGrin
That article is amazing, I'd never have known but makes sence it's taken me a week past af to get a +ve before

kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 22/09/2012 08:14

That's fantastic, kitty :-)

And that article is really useful and informative, Kitten, thank you.

Thundercatsarego · 22/09/2012 08:02

Grin kitty!

Kittenkatzen · 22/09/2012 08:02

GrinGrin yay kitty that's brilliant news, so happy for you!

kittykatskumkwat · 22/09/2012 08:01

Well I did my other frer this morning ( I was fearing it was left over pg hormones from mc as I'd only used cheepies to get a neg and panicked what if the frer picked up more) anyway the line is alot stronger, infact came up first before the control and is as strong as it so happy SmileSmileSmile
Makes me feel better about lack of symptoms twinges everything that everyone else seems to have but me

Ah it was on a different thread, here's the linky if anyone's interested

Kittenkatzen · 22/09/2012 07:39

Oh and to red - lovely to have you back SmileSmile

Kittenkatzen · 22/09/2012 07:38

Thanks girls. frustrated you're right I have to take the positives from this and in fact looking at dates it means I'll probably now squeeze in one extra chance for a bfp before new year, so that's a kind of bonus Smile

james I think the earliest is really 10dpo but even then it's not 100% reliable by any means. If you look upthread someone posted a really interesting link about how long the different stages can take before a hpt would show positive - I was really surprised at how long it can take!

JamesAndTheGiantBanana · 21/09/2012 22:53

Sorry kitten but fx its implantation, I had that with my first pg (didn't know I was pg, in the middle of moving house, new job etc) I thought it was a weird short period.

When's the earliest you can test then? I'm about 4dpo.

FrustratedSycamorePants · 21/09/2012 21:40

Ah. Point proven kitten on the plus side you're cd1 without the waiting.

Kittenkatzen · 21/09/2012 21:22

Hmmm, well if it's not AF, it's certainly doing a very good impression of AF. Proper bright red blood and plenty of it (sorry, sorry) which is how AF usually starts for me. Its usually short (2/3 days) anyway too. Maybe I'll stay away from the tampons for now and keep an eye on it. Don't hold out much hope though to be honest.

How is everyone else doing? Enjoying the wine ladies? Smile

FrustratedSycamorePants · 21/09/2012 21:10

I agree with kitty, kitten are you sure it's AF? 25day cycle does seem very short and wtf to me.

kittykatskumkwat · 21/09/2012 21:04

< stumbles in over been bags and drunk ladies> kitten are you sure it's af? Just with you saying its 4 days early? I've only had that once where I thought that's weird and early and it was Implantation with dd, not a few drops either like af had started only it only lasted 2 days and never really got going?
Sorry for anyone else who is/ thinks they are out, it does seem very synchronised in here at the mo doesn't it!!

Kittenkatzen · 21/09/2012 20:45

Thanks girls, sorry for being all mememe there, it sucks that you're in the same boat too Sad

SunshineOutdoors · 21/09/2012 20:37

Hi purple Smile

Sorry af got you kitten have some wine with us. I know it might not help much but if you're not pg it's better that she's here early so your next chance comes earlier too. I know it doesn't feel like that now but give it time and you'll get optimistic again Wine

WhenSheWasBadSheWasAnOrange · 21/09/2012 20:36

Hi kitten sorry about af. I've never had a 25 day cycle, that's short. Think I'm on about cd37 this month (stupidly long cycle this month).

Enjoy the treat room.

Kittenkatzen · 21/09/2012 20:29

Oops sorry - hi purple (I'm usually much more cheerful honest!)

Kittenkatzen · 21/09/2012 20:28

AngryAngryAngry

AF just turned up. Four fricking days early. Seriously, a 25 day cycle - wtaf is that about then?

Sad
PurpleGeekyGirl · 21/09/2012 20:23

Hey when yeah you've seen me obsessing there Blush...

I do have a long luetal phase indeed, usually 16 days. With ds1 it took me ages to realize I didn't ov on cd14 but more like cd9...

WhenSheWasBadSheWasAnOrange · 21/09/2012 20:13

Hello purple. I've seen you on the Sept thread.

You must have a longish luteal phase if you are due on tues. I am 12 dpo too (poss 13), think af is due tomorrow or Sunday.

PurpleGeekyGirl · 21/09/2012 19:58

waves er, hello, I'm new to this thread, but have been posting some may say obsessively excessively in the Sept BFP thread so far... currently 12dpo but expecting to move to Oct thread after Tues when AF is due. Need to step away from being quite so obsessive next month, but this was cycle 1 so I am allowed to be really rather a bit obsessive, no?!
