Writerwannabe83 · 09/07/2013 19:52

lol.

I have taken about 4 tests during the last 14 years of my life, all of which I had been praying for a negative result!!

It will feel so strange now to take a test and desperately want it to be positive!!!

I try to wait until at least 1-2 days before AF is due. So 12-13 DPO.
But if I have tests in the house I will test earlier!

How many dpo do people leave it before they start to POAS????

onelittlepiglet · 09/07/2013 17:48

Finally got my cross hairs now so I'm 3 dpo and bored already! Don't think that we will be lucky this month despite trying hard. I don't know why, just a feeling. Might reserve a seat on the August bus.

seatfor5 · 09/07/2013 17:13

:( sorry to hear that Linda although its not over till AF arrives.

Disney :(

Was sure you to would get BFP this month

Another BFN this morning for me so at 12DPO i think I must be out so just waiting for AF and reserving a seat on the August bus

AliBingo · 09/07/2013 15:18

kitty I think you may have a point - my last pregnancy (which also didn't result in a baby unfortunately) we only DTD once around ovulation time, day 14 I think it was.

Disney that sounds painful but I may follow suit!

FoxMulder · 09/07/2013 15:14

That's pretty patient, impatiently Grin. I'm 10DPO today too and would be peeing on a stick right now if I had one.

Well, not RIGHT now. A bit inappropriate in the middle of the office maybe...

impatientlywaiting · 09/07/2013 15:09

Hi All,

Congratulations to all the BFP's so far. Although I feel sure that we are due another one now.
And sorry for all the people that AF arrived for. I hope that August is your month.

I'm on my second cycle off the pill. I think i've been slightly better on the symptom spotting than last month when I convinced myself that I was preggo, but I am starting to google every last ailment. It doesn't help that you can literally put in any symptom followed by an 'e' and google will automatically populate early pregnancy in the search box!! So far I've had teeth sensitivity on 7dpo, headaches 7-10dpo, my boobs have been getting increasingly more veins and little spot things on my nipples, and last night I had sharp pains to the left of my belly button that I have put down to implantation pains, but are probably due to the fact i'm currently a bit constitpated. I'm an absolute treat at the moment.

Currently 10 dpo, so will poas on Friday I think.

xx

AliBingo I'm straddling both buses -ouch!-

kittykat01 · 09/07/2013 14:38

glad i made you giggle LoveWine! :)

anyone think less sex might be better though?
I normally have more sex than a prostitute in my hope to get a BFP but so far nothing. The month i conceived that sadly ended in mmc we only had sex once around ovulation and bingo. I think it was because there was a build of sperm.

any thoughts... ?

AliBingo · 09/07/2013 14:26

Great to see all the BFPs already!

Not sure whether to stay or hop over to the shiny new August bus as I don't think I ovulated this month, according to CBFM, so we didn't DTD at the right time, gah.

Back to SMEP next month I think.

FoxMulder · 09/07/2013 14:10

I just went to an impromptu swim in the lake on my lunch break Grin. But now my underwear is soggy. I hope no-one needs to use my chair...

LoveWine · 09/07/2013 13:48

Lol kittykat01 you just made my day with this "Fingers crossed and legs uncrossed for august" Grin

kittykat01 · 09/07/2013 13:43

bfn this morning followed by cramps and some brown staining. thats me out AF will be here within 24hrs in full force. Fingers crossed and legs uncrossed for august lol !

Vikkijayne2507 · 09/07/2013 13:28

Awww rubbish Linda keep on waiting. Writer from a social worker your grandparents are living in the 50s. Im bored of waiting already for ov and still have like a week to wait

Dumdeedumdeedum · 09/07/2013 13:10

How many days post ov does implantation take place? I am 6 dpo (plus or minus 1) today, last night I had some funny mild stabby pains just as I was going to sleep. this morning I've had a big gush of watery fluid but no EWCM so i don't think this is ov as I had loads of EWCM last week...what do you think?

lindamagoo · 09/07/2013 11:37

Thanks Thora but I think I would have had atleast a hint of a line by now Hmm on the plus side though we can get booked up for a holiday now Smile

ThoraNomiki · 09/07/2013 11:33

Oh I'm sorry Linda. It's not over yet though!

DisneyDiva87 · 09/07/2013 11:30

Yup, I started an August bus, it's here www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/1798661-The-August-BFP-bus-all-aboard-the-glorious-number-8

Just me on board so far, it's a lonely little bus just now.

ThoraNomiki · 09/07/2013 11:23

Congratulations Mummypig ! I hope your family can try to be happy for you.

Writer- it sounds like your family are just worried about you. Maybe they don't understand that the professionals are looking out for you too.

Sorry Disney and others who've been got by AF. I hope you have better luck next month.

I'm not sure what's going on with my body. The Ov tests keep coming up faint and I haven't managed to do the the same time each day and I keep forgetting to check them after 10 mins. I just wander off and leave them.

I do think I got a positive today. CD26. It was much darker than previous ones.
I've been checking CM and I seem to get all 3 types at once which is confusing. We have been dtd every other day lately, despite the heat!, so hopefully we're doing enough.
If all my cycles are this long I won't have many before I have to stop trying for a while. I'm a bridesmaid for my friends wedding next year and although I (and she) wouldn't mind being pregnant and would hate to be due around the time and potentially miss it.
