I think I've gone mad as I've done another test and obviously it was bfn!!

Jessica78 · 28/08/2013 23:03

Hello! I know I'm coming in late on this thread... This is our 4th month ttc and I'm now a day late... Getting BFN on a test the last couple of days though, but have had a couple of waves of nausea. I totally expect AF to pop up anytime...

VJONES1985 · 28/08/2013 22:26

After two heavy days,AF seems to be calming down so hopefully tomorrow will be the final day of it and I can crack out the opks again in a few days.

Tea1Sugar · 28/08/2013 21:15

Glad to hear your chirpy jones. I've been sorting my classroom today too. Getting worried about disguising the waves of nausea in front of everyone though. I'll only be 7+4 when the kids come backBlush

Hi all! I'm no longer in my 2ww but am still lurking to see how you're all doing.

I was at work all day today,sorting out my new classroom ready for next week. And I was right about work taking my mind of ttc - I was busy all day and didn't worry about it at all :)

Refoca · 28/08/2013 19:41

Lucyfluff do you remember your cycle length pre-patch? Could go by that, or just test about once a week from now until BFP/AF.

bushprincess I forgot to send patience vibes, how remiss of me! Have a double dose today :-) wanna join my 'no test until 14th Sept' club? ;-)

I'm still oddly achy, about day 23 of ny normally 21 day cycle, but with such a short cycle it only takes me drinking a little less liquid to stall it for a day or two so I'm still in the 'am I late yet?' club...DH still encouraging me to keep my resolve, just 17ish days before I poas then, haha!

lucyfluff · 28/08/2013 10:18

I'm not sure when to test!!!! Patch withdrawal started 1st aug BUT it was a breakthrough bleed and I just took it off to ttc and carried on with AF until about 7th.

What date do you think poas?!

bushprincess · 28/08/2013 07:50

hi layla so pleased you're feeling better fx for your scan do hope all is ok... we'll all be thinking of yoU!

all good here, just trying to hold out these last few days to test early next week... stay away evil AF!!

right, better get on with some work... have a good day everyone!

layla1976 · 27/08/2013 23:36

p.s nulanoo...some women ovulate twice a month...it could be that!!!!

layla1976 · 27/08/2013 23:34

hi everyone!!...how you getting on bushprincess???... i'm so so sorry for all who have got AF.... but as I said before its a new cycle so it can start all over again now,forget the last one and its a new fresh try again!!!... jonesy..everyone is right hun, it takes a month prob to regulate after the pill so fingers crossed this next month is for you!!!.............................
who's left in this 2ww then??? i've lost count as i've been up the docs etc loads... pains have completely disappeared..WEIRD??? ... doc is sending me for a scan on thurs/friday...my AF still not here ...due on FRI/SAT.... I REALLY HOPE IT DONT COME!!!!!...anyone testing from this weekend or early next week??? think my af will come though it always does!!!!

Refoca · 27/08/2013 23:07

Hi AliOh welcome to the waiting game...fingers crossed for this month :-)

Nula I got this too (roughly...no idea how many dponit was actually, but felt like odd timing)...implantation? Random body hormone weirdness? Hope it's a good something anyway, for both of us!

wispa I'll keep my fingers crossed it's implantation and you'll have a BFP in another 3-4 days.

VJones so sorry AF got you :-( hope it's short and sweet so you can get into the next cycle post haste.

As for me, felt a twinge last night and I'm a bit crampy today...my mind has it pegged as some great internal battle, autopilot kicking progesterone into action as a little bean sends out waves of hcg and clings tightly on...most likely all psychological of course! Either way, keeping my fingers crossed that AF doesn't rear her ugly head tomorrow.

GnomieGrace · 27/08/2013 23:06

Oh Vjones, so sorry to hear that AF has caught you, coming off the pill is crazy on your body though, I came off had a withdrawal bleed then nothing for 70 days! Some EWCM on day 13/14 then nothing, I then had a proper period and ov symptoms at the right time but now a very very heavy AF 9 days early! I too am do ready it's driving me crazy!

Layla so sorry to hear of your pelvic pain and losses over the years, fingers crossed for you keep us up to date!

I'm on holiday in South Wales so am lurking and you're all right, at least I'll be relaxed and ready to go in September!!!

ELR · 27/08/2013 22:09

You are in the right place alioh, good luck!

AliOh · 27/08/2013 20:44

Hi everyone, I'm a newbie so go easy on me :) on month 4 of ttc and 10 days into my two week wait! It kills me everytime :( this month I am trying to focus on other things rather than hoping I am pregnant! At least only four more days to wait!

wispaxmas · 27/08/2013 20:04

According to the Internet it's too late for that, but then again, I never tracked ovulation, and just went by the guess that it's midway through the cycle..

VJONES1985 · 27/08/2013 19:03

wispa Could it be implantation?

wispaxmas · 27/08/2013 18:51

Oh gosh, sorry nulanoo, I didn't realise it was dpo.. No idea, then!

wispaxmas · 27/08/2013 18:48

Just popping back in to say that I feel like I'm being jerked around by AF. Tiny bit of light pink/brown when wiping last night and this morning, but absolutely nothing since. Did a hpt in desperation, hoping it wasnt AF and bfn. Why can't it just get here for real and let me get on with it?!

wispaxmas · 27/08/2013 18:46

Apparently you can get it for a few days before ov...

Nulanoo · 27/08/2013 17:36

Hi everyone :) does anyone know why I might be getting ewcm approx 10dpo? X

VJONES1985 · 27/08/2013 16:59

Yes, I've learned so much thanks to the patient mumsnetters! We did everything we could this month, which makes it a bit of a kick in the teeth, but I know I need to let my body settle down after coming off the pill and I've definitely learned to relax more. So, back to yoga and pilates I go next week!

KedenTTC1Cycle2 · 27/08/2013 16:52

Awww VJones I'm terribly sorry. I could tell you were super anxious about this. Remember it's ONLY your 1st try. Now you are probably better equipped for the 2nd try. I bet you know a lot more about everything TTC than when you first started. Chin up Smile.

Sorry to hear you've got AF as well ELR. Fingres crossed for September!

bushprincess · 27/08/2013 16:08

sorry about wretched AF vjones, wispa, Gnomie, LB and ELR but onwards and upwards.. let september be your month!! Hope you're not too down vjones but remember it's your first cycle trying and your body is only just sorting itself out after the pill - everything will get more regular soon I'm sure

Layla are you ok? what did A&E say? I hope you're doing ok... please let us all know....

Refoca... send over some of your chilled 'no testing till 2 weeks late' vibes please!! I've only got 1 hpk in the house so thats helping stop me thinking about any early testing - I have to hold out till it'll be a real positive!

international lucky lucky you Envy

longtail huge congratulations! Smile and hope more of us will be joining you on the antenatal boards soon...

VJONES1985 · 27/08/2013 15:34

Three If implantation bleeds last all day and require tampons to deal with them, then yes!

ThreeFromDesire · 27/08/2013 15:20

Jonesy- potential implantation bleed?
Sorry you are out elr Sad
