Good luck tomorrow Grin

I was due on yesterday but am still too scared to test! I've started to get mild cramps and am 99% sure my AF is coming...but i'm definitely testing tomorrow morning if it doesn't arrive tonight! reassured to hear your pre BFP cramps Loveyouthree. When I look back on all the months i'm sure i've found a symptom that has made me think "perhaps i'm pregnant" and then she arrives! So thought i'd take a different tack this month. Reverse psychology on her which is ridiculous because if she's coming..she's coming!!
Praying for BFP's for us!!
Loveyouthree and Mummybare looking forward to not being on my own tomorrow when I poas!

Good luck everyone! Butler like you're style....HPT after work party! ha ha

That's promising news, thank you loveyouthree! Maybe this pregnancy will be different for u? They're not always the same, keep positive hunni :) I know it's hard, I'm struggling, I reckon the witch will arrive any minute!! Xx

Loveyouthree · 11/12/2013 21:12

Jelly - I always got AF cramps before my BFPs (been pregnant three times). This time I've got nothing, not even pms symptoms. Frustrating!

Jellybellymoo · 11/12/2013 20:59

It's so weird in getting AF cramps and keep running to the loo expecting AF and nothing. I'm still not convinced I'm pregnant! I think I will test Friday and then I'll know for sure, thank you for all your advice it's been so helpful, I might have to buy some of those cheapy amazon tests :)

Good luck to you all and keep us posted. Xx

Loveyouthree · 11/12/2013 19:14

So many typos, sorry guys...

Loveyouthree · 11/12/2013 19:13

Thanks mummybare, good luck for tomorrow, if they turn up at is! Poas at leisurely at at price! I've never been to a Christmas do... Left uni to be a SAHM. A well, I'll live vicariously through you lot Wink

mummybare · 11/12/2013 18:50

I also have my Christmas do tomorrow night, but going to drive anyway as I'm working Friday and am pretty much useless with a hangover.

Good luck to those testing tomorrow morning. Will join in if my Amazon order shows up.

Loveyouthree · 11/12/2013 18:41

Oh yeh maybe kitkats right actually, I didn't think of it like that. Have you decided jelly?

How's everyone else getting on?

Wish AF would arrive so I know I'm not having weird cycles, if that makes sense. Tomorrow will be cd30 and that's getting a bit long (for me).

Bought myself some drinks for tonight. Resigned to the fact it'll be bfn tomorrow!

KitKat1985 · 11/12/2013 18:32

Yeah, I would say tomorrow too, but bear in mind 12dpo would still be pretty early. If you'd rather be more sure maybe wait until the weekend?

Loveyouthree · 11/12/2013 16:53

Jellybelly - test in the morning?? Join us that are :)

Jellybellymoo · 11/12/2013 16:38

Hi ladies,

Soo yesterday at 10dpo I tested and got BFN, today at 11dpo and due AF which has been a no-show!! When should I test again?? I'm fed up of getting BFNs but this is the first time I've missed my period so feeling hopeful :)

Haha butler I have the same problem my work Xmas do is on the 17th and if love a drink but should know by then if I am or not! Fingers crossed for u all xxxx

Butler4 · 11/12/2013 13:03

thanks kitkat, I have my 5 IC coming between friday and monday so I am putting it of until then. argh the wait is killing me!

Also have my works xmas night out on friday so dont want to test so I can have a drink! if you dont know and all that! I am not giving up my life this month like I have previous months, although it has been tough!

mummybare · 11/12/2013 12:14

Yes - once my cheapie tests arrive, I'll be testing every 5 minutes daily. I WILL be patient till then. Rubbish as I am at keeping track of it, I do know my cycles usually quite long, but irregular, so it seems a good way to go in the absence of AF.

Fingers crossed for more BFPs in the next few days!

Loveyouthree · 11/12/2013 12:14

KitKat - same here. It's the horrible doubt. Sorry you got a bfn today :( I'm fully expecting one tomorrow, it's quite laughable really! Ah well.

We're getting married on 14.6.14 so I ought to wait after that :(

KitKat1985 · 11/12/2013 11:54

Well I tested again this morning with a cheapie bought in poundland yesterday whilst buying wrapping paper (classy I know)! Another BFN. Am on CD35 now. Am 99% confident now that I'm not pregnant and AF is just taking her time after having come off the pill. It's been a stressful couple of months which probably isn't helping. Keep getting odd poking sensations / twinges in my abdomen though but I guess it must just be because my hormones are all over the shop. Also I don't remember my period taking so long to come back last time I stopped the pill, but that was about 4-5 years ago now, and wasn't TTC (stopped for medical reasons). See this is the problem. I'm 99% sure I'm not pregnant but because AF hasn't shown up there's this doubt that's driving me crazy. Would be so much less stressful now if AF just showed up and I could focus on cycle 2 instead of keep wondering. At least when our internet cheapies turn up mummybare we can test everyday if we want to (I'm not a patient person either)!

Good luck for tomorrow angelgabe, Jellybellymoo and loveyouthree! And good luck for the weekend butler4! Surely one of us has to be?!?

Loveyouthree · 11/12/2013 10:29

Angel - I'm going to test tomorrow (didn't test today) just for the hell of it! I know it's going to be bfn but oh well, the tests are bought now, and I've kind of made my peace with it. Saying that... I'll prob test on Friday too, if no AF. Today is cd29. Since I came off the pill in the summer cycles have gone like this:

15 (?!)
29
25
31

So god knows!

Gl to everyone else :)

angelgabe · 11/12/2013 08:33

This is no good at all ladies....we need some more BFP's! I'm struggling with it this month hence not being on for a couple of days. I'm CD30 and AF was due yesterday but I can feel AF coming. Am going to leave it one more day as I can't face the BFN! Anyone testing tomorrow?!!

Loveyouthree · 10/12/2013 19:16

Aahh good luck everyone!

I still haven't come on.. Want my textbook cycles back :(

If I get a bfn on fri I know that's it - me and DP haven't dtd enough times ( he's been working away).

I'm trying to see it this way: the longer the wait, the better, as the other three will be more and more independent. But, like mummybare, I'm very impatient!

mummybare · 10/12/2013 14:29

My tests have also been dispatched. Which is a good thing because, as you might be able to tell, I am NOT a patient person! Grin

Butler4 · 10/12/2013 14:19

thanks kitkat. I am also 10dpo on CD 22 so wee while to wait! ach well just need to suck it up!

mummybare · 10/12/2013 13:36

Ah, makes sense! Thanks KitKat.

KitKat1985 · 10/12/2013 13:33

AF is slang for 'Auntie Flo' mummybare which is a bit of an old-fashioned term for period. :)

My order has apparently already been dispatched! Hoping they may arrive Thursday in which case. :) As you say, worst happens then I'll save them for next month! Feel a bit mad buying 20 tests at once though! Lol! x

Good luck for Friday jellybellymoo!

mummybare · 10/12/2013 13:28

Oh dear, just been on Amazon... Grin

I bet they don't arrive till Saturday and/or I come on before they get here. Still, either I'll have them for next month or I'll be pg and won't care!

Incidentally, what does AF stand for? I can guess to what it refers, but can't think what it's actually short for. Thanks!

Jellybellymoo · 10/12/2013 13:15

Thanks KitKat1985, I hoping not!! I have brought the poundland ones before as I also hate the wait! Ive decided im not going to test again now until Friday if AF doesn't come as I only have 1 test left, its so hard to stay positive when getting cramps which feel exactly like AF!! Fingers crossed xxxx
