Good Luck LoveWine! Grin

Sorry to hear that gilly - hopefully next month will be the lucky one for you!

I hope I am not out this month too. Yesterday was the first day of my missed period, but got a BFN and no AF. I have had cramps in the last 2-3 days, but I am still hopeful. The thing is I am in Asia for work this week and only have 1 HPT left and no idea where to buy more...ugh...I shouldn't have wasted so many by testing too early. I will see if AF doesn't show today and maybe use the last test tomorrow. Wish me luck!!

And I'm out!
Goodbye July bus! It's been fun!

Good thing is that I definitely ovulated when I got my positive OPK and AF has come pretty much on time. Ok.. One day later than I thought ... but that's good enough. This was only the second month of using digi OPKs so at least I know they're working for me as previous to that I was having issues with cheapy OPKs.

So.. Onwards and upwards. Need to carry on with the digis and dtd a lot more! No where near enough dtd effort in July!

See some of you on the August bus xx Smile xx

I'm feeling really emotional Sad I was like this last month when AF turned up so I expect she's probably on her way again. I can handle that, I think, as long as I'm not waiting weeks and weeks. With fake symptoms getting my hopes up.
I felt really sick today and half my brain instantly thought 'ooh morning sickness?' instead of the usual 'uh oh stomach bug'. In reality it's too early for actual morning sickness so it's likely to be the heat or the pastry thing I had for lunch.

I really thought this would all be easier - so naive...

KittyCatKittyCat · 23/07/2013 15:10

I'm out, D: Going to try again this month... pfft. Well done to everyone else though!

Hi ladies! So I think I'm 15dpo today and still no sign of AF and still getting a bfn.

I got very positive OPKs - big thick dark lines (darker than the control line) AND smiley face digi OPKs on Sunday 7th and Monday 8th.

Assumed I ovulated on the Monday making me 15dpo now but maybe I ovulated on the tuesday or Wednesday making me 13-14 DPO? I don't know.

I'm still worried that maybe my body geared up for ovulation but then didnt do it at that time at all. That would be annoying as we only really dtd enough around when I THINK I ovulated. So... Who knows.. Arghh!

Still getting lots of CM... Blobs of it like snot (sorry!) and also white CM mixed with EWCM like cloudy in colour.

Very teary and emotional last night... Thought that was AF on the way! All the talk of the royal baby and so many people I know pregnant.. And 2 people I know have given birth in the last few days... It all got a bit too much for me! Plus last night was SO HOT! So I was just in a mood Hmm

Hi Ladies, I've been steering clear the last few days as I was going a bit cocoloco with it all...but I'm still in Limbo and I'm starting to get pissed off about it! Had another BFN of sunday. Today is CD37 which is the longest my cycle has been since I had DS 2 years ago. I think I OV on CD 16-18 so I'm now about 20dpo and nothing. Boobs are a bit sore, but that could be af, feeling a bit sick sometimes, but it's hot and i could be imagining it. Having trouble sleeping - it's hot, feeling hungry all the time - i'm greedy. I don't know, i'm just pissed off and need a bit of a boost so I thought I'd come here cause I know you would understand. To top it all off my best friend got a BFP on sunday. I'm happy for her cause they've been trying 6 months now, but I want my BFP now!!!

armywag21 · 23/07/2013 10:46

Sounds promising! I've been light headed this morning too.. Even tho I've eaten loads as my hunger is unreal the past few days.

LeeHandy · 23/07/2013 10:30

army, I have been having cramps every day for the last week. it's my only symptom actually. so good luck! Grin

Vikkijayne2507 · 23/07/2013 09:43
