Thanks for the quick response zermatt. No I am not exactly sure when I ovulated as ran out of opk's before I got a positive so up to cd17 I had negatives.

Latest I have ovulated since I started trying is cd19 however I have moved house this month so I'm wondering if that has thrown my cycle off at all. Either way I am on my longest cycle ever (even before trying as I tracked my cycle then anyway just not ovulation) of cd35 and I have never gone past 32 before.

I haven't tested today I was scared to due to the brown cm, I will test in the morning with a FRER.

The reason I am worried it's not implantation is that's what I always tell myself when I start spotting on 10dpo and then get full blown AF the next day. This is different though it's normally red and causally spotting rather than brown cm (sorry tmi).

I think I'm just looking for honest advice and experience so I can prepare myself.

Thanks for reading through my ramble and any advice is appreciated! Thanks all x

ItsChristmaass - Sorry to hear your update – Fingers crossed the provera works for you – It will happen!

impatienceisavirtue and Treaclepie – I’ll keep you both on the waiting list for now – scared of tempting fate for you – although I definitely see a line, impatience! Hope it gets stronger day by day and keep testing Treacle Thanks

Zermatt · 20/02/2014 10:35

I'm not sure what that means newbie, have you tested again today? Are you sure you know when you ovulated and it could maybe be implantation?

Zermatt · 20/02/2014 10:33

Ooh fingers crossed for you both Caged Mango and Treacle!

Treacle you must feel so excited and frustrated and fatuous at the same time! It does sound very promising though and I think like the Doctor says a blood test would have most likely taken as long to come back with the results as now just waiting and taking another FRER or IC over the next couple of days.

EnglishGirlAbroad · 20/02/2014 10:31

Congrats Impatience!!!

Treacle, thats great news. I'd have been pissed off at at least not getting a blood test. Will you go back if they keep coming back negative?? Fingers crossed you get a nice clear positive soon!

Newbie784 · 20/02/2014 10:30

Hi ladies, congrats on all the Bfp and possible Bfp! Sounds promising all!

I need some advice please I am freaking out. I had some brown tinted cm last night and again this morning just when I wipe. Not spotting just in my cm (sorry tmi) I just noted a spot of brighter colour. Terrified this means I'm out.

Been so convinced this month, I am approx 16dpo (only a 10 day lp normally), last tested at 14dpo and got bfn. I'm really upset, do you think I'm out? This is my 6th month ttc

CagedMango · 20/02/2014 10:27

mama I did both. Negative ic pregnancy test but a very faint line on the opk. Will keep my fingers crossed but not hoping too much just yet. Hope the tww goes easily for you and you get your bfp.

mama31 · 20/02/2014 10:10

Congrats impatience! Great news! A well needed bfp for the bus to cheer everyone up!

Treacle so hoping you get your bfp soon! How frustrating for you! Hoping the GP has given you a follow up appointment though and the limbo doesn't continue too long for you! Did he say just to keep testing every day??? So easy for them to say! They don't have to break the bank on preggo tests every month! Haha!

Mango was it an opk or preg test you dipped this morn??? Good luck for tomorrow's poas!!!!

No news here, start of the 2ww....just twiddling my thumbs really......

sazzlehopes · 20/02/2014 10:04

Exciting stuff happening here this morning. Hope the doc is right Treacle and you don't have to wait too long for a bfp. Will you just keep testing every day? Did he give you a limit like if nothing come back and see in a weeks time?

Impatience congrats - faint, but i see it! Hope it gets stronger for you soon!
Good luck to Mango and anyone else testing today/tomorrow!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 20/02/2014 09:56

Treacle really hope he's right! I really did have so many false negatives with one of mine when I was pg. it felt like it went on forever. But then of course it went amazingly quickly as I was already a couple of months In by the time we got a positive. So I'm really hoping this is what's happening to you. All pregnancies and all bodies are different. Just v frustrating.

Treaclepie19 · 20/02/2014 09:30

Thank you!
I hope we both get our BFP's tomorrow :)

CagedMango · 20/02/2014 09:27

Thanks treacle. Will keep you posted on tomorrow's test.

Fingers crossed you get yours tomorrow too!

Treaclepie19 · 20/02/2014 09:22

Eek mango! Fingers crossed!!

CagedMango · 20/02/2014 09:17

Just dipped an opk into my fmu (had forgotten to throw it out and left it on the side in the bathroom-oops) and I can see the most faint line ever but I'm sure it's there. Will try again tomorrow and won't believe it until I get a real bfp!

Treaclepie19 · 20/02/2014 09:15

Thanks lemon and cagedmango
He seemed to reckon by the time results come back id know and he said in some cases you can still get a false negative.
Plus i didnt have a blood test that long ago so ge knows my thyroid and everything should still be normal.

CagedMango · 20/02/2014 09:11

That promising news treacle, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! It's a shame he didn't do any bloods though.

Thanks impatience. Congrats on your bfp Smile I'll try an opk later but I'm going to save the frer for as long as possible. I've had no spotting yet which is a good sign for me, and I'm much warmer than usual (I'm normally a very cold person).

lemon sounds like we are in the same situation. Fx for bfp.

LemonDrizzler · 20/02/2014 09:08

Fingers crossed Treacle!

Treaclepie19 · 20/02/2014 09:02

Ok... Been to the doctors. I am shaking!

No blood tests or samples. He just said "chances are you're probably pregnant and it isnt showing up yet"!!!!!!!!!

Really trying not to get my hopes up but cus i wasn't on the pill and im having regular cycles thats what he said.

LemonDrizzler · 20/02/2014 08:45

Hi all can I hop on very late? Ttc #1 cycle #7. Currently 15dpo cd31 which is the latest AF has ever been but still bfn on tests. V confused and hopes are up, which is dangerous!!

impatienceisavirtue · 20/02/2014 08:30

cagedmango I was 11dpo last night - FRER positive but EC was not. Interestingly the OPK was very positive though - so I guess that is true about them picking it up too.

impatienceisavirtue · 20/02/2014 08:29

Thank you everyone - I still can't believe it!! I did another FRER this morning - still faint but definitely there!

Good luck to everyone - btw the only thing I did different this month was I've been using the pregnacare conception multivits and so has DH.

He had his sperm count testing yesterday morning - bloody typical haha. I did the test in the evening

CagedMango · 20/02/2014 08:28

Hello, my stats were missed off the update so I'm checking in again. I've been following this thread and enjoying the chatter. Congrats to the bfp seen and good luck today treacle. Sleeping and Jones, I hope you are both ok.

I think today is 15dpo with af due yesterday. Still a bfn though but looking at the dates it is possible I o'd late in which case I'll be only 13dpo. I've been using ic but have a frer I'll use at the weekend if still no af and nothing in the ic. Lots of symptom spotting going on this month-my boobs are really sore with some veins (never had veins before), had heart palpitations yesterday which google has informed me can be common in early pregnancy and more cm than usual for this time. I'm on cycle 7 ttc #1.

ItsChristmaass · 20/02/2014 08:22

Hello all. Haven't been on mumsnet this cycle. Things have been too hectic to think about it.
Anyways I'm on provera at the moment to kick start my period again so I'm going over to the march bus if there is one Hmm now onto cycle 15.
Congrats to all bfps and Thanks to those af got.

Treaclepie19 · 20/02/2014 07:58

Thanks mrs

Hope you're not in the same boat as me!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 20/02/2014 07:49

So officially I'm 2 days late and although chances are minute I couldn't resist the urge to poas both days. Bfn as predicted. Wondering how long af will take to come. I've got the rage still which isn't helping!

Good luck today treacle. While you're at the dr do ask for a thyroid function test. It's a common problem and plays havoc with fertility. Most people find a quick fix, I'm just awkward!

Excellent news impatience! Very exciting!!! Grin

Not sure whether to flump off to the march bus after 2 bfns of just wait for af to arrive, which being half term could easily be next week!Grin
