Oh and Retro, glad ur tests are ok!!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 27/03/2014 18:01

I feel your pain Fingers! I'm on cd 37! Never had a cycle this long! Persistent bfns. Had some ewcm yesterday but that's it. Did an OPK today and forgot to bloody look at it. I'd quite like AF to just turn up!

RetroHippy · 27/03/2014 17:49

Just got back from the GP, my blood test test results are all perfectly normal Grin yey!

So my weirdo alternating 17/27 day cycles are also... Normal Hmm.

At least I know I'm definitely ovulating on my longer cycles. Might just mean I'm only in every other cycle, I'll see if AF turns up in 10 days or 20. Bloody ridiculous body.

Ah well, if this is a long cycle then I'm due to ov on Tuesday, so after a three week drought due to being ill and gross at least DHs sperm will be top notch although we're babysitting DNiece so don't rate my chances of a Christmas baby

Don't feel bad! Your bound to feel those feelings when you want something so bad!! Don't beat yourself up about it.

Just caught up on Facebook and whilst I've been away three more friends have announced they're pg.

Whilst I'm happy for them there is a part of me that is so envious and I feel a bit tearful. Which makes me feel like a bad person and in turn makes me feel worse.

NewlymrsB · 27/03/2014 14:35

I know, it's just not fair!!

Hi all

Wishing hard for a BFP for one of us to end this month on a high.

I've still bad tummy cramps so think AF might be on her way. If no AF by Sunday I'll test but the way I'm feeling think it might be here tomorrow morning.

I'm now thinking about next month and what to do differently but I can't think of anything else we can do. I feel like we threw everything at it this month - DtD loads more than we normally can manage to do what with working patterns, did opks, used friendly lube, drank grapefruit juice - what else can I possibly throw at it? It's so draining why the frig can't we all just fall pregnant when we want to???AngryAngryAngry

NewlymrsB · 27/03/2014 14:23

Feel for you! I thought day 31 was bad enough!!

Fingerscrossed36 · 27/03/2014 13:53

No idea I am currently CD 52 and no signs of anything.

Currently POAS on a Tuesday but the past 2 weeks have been negative

Insufficient doing of the deed would mean that if ovulation has happened we've missed it. Crotchwatching in the hope that my body will give me an ovulation sign, or failing that AF so we can just try again Confused

Dear God this is not a good day! First Phineas the fish passes away and then I had to go pick ds up from nursery as he was sick everywhere Hmm

NewlymrsB · 27/03/2014 13:33

When are u expecting af fingers?

Fingerscrossed36 · 27/03/2014 13:29

Hi Girls,

I'm still here too. Got visitors but trying to keep up when I get the chance.

Hugs for those of you AF got, those of us with long cycles at least have another cycle to try and work out how long dtd has to continue. Trying to look on the bright side

Still in limbo here, no symptoms or AF Sad

NewlymrsB · 27/03/2014 13:06

Haha yes she always does!! I wasn't too hopeful for this month as we both had a sickness bug right around middle of cycle which put us out of action for a bit. I'm going on holiday next week so that will cheer me up and I suppose ok the positive I would be able to drink with the others!!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 27/03/2014 13:04

I really hope not Newley! Smile I should have known I put new gorgeous knickers on this morning! Grin Bloody af she picks her moment doesn't she! Wink

SaRaRaRaRa · 27/03/2014 12:47

RIP linda's fish. Ha ha re the hamster mrsE
Shock I remember the funeral we had for our hamster when we were kids!

NewlymrsB · 27/03/2014 11:32

Sorry to hear your out mrsE, think I'm about to join u x

MrsExtraOrdinary · 27/03/2014 11:24

Fellow stragglers, I'm out! I'm really hoping I don't see you in April and the best of luck to all of you waiting xx

MrsExtraOrdinary · 27/03/2014 11:17

My dsis was delighted with a reincarnation! Grin

lindamagoo · 27/03/2014 11:04

Haha MrsE I almost wet myself laughing about the hamster, what a shame, lol Grin I couldn't hide it from the boys as they were there when I noticed it so had to have a funeral Smile

MrsExtraOrdinary · 27/03/2014 10:53

Linda that reminds me of when my dsis fish died, my mum replaced it. Subsequently known as flitty 1 and flitty 2. On the 3rd fish she had to own up. We also thought the hamster died but it had gone into hibernation. Dad realised that after the funeral.

Tilly28 · 27/03/2014 10:32

Sorry Nordic :-(

I'm also out, AF started this morning. On CD33! Least I know my cycles are coming back after being on the pill. Roll on April and an Xmas baby!

Will keep my fingers crossed for any stragglers to get their bfp! :-)

EnglishGirlAbroad · 27/03/2014 10:29

Sorry Nordic, sending you a hug, Cake and Wine

lindamagoo · 27/03/2014 10:13

Family tragedy! My 4 year olds fish has gone to fishy heaven, he's handling it very well but made me do a proper wee funeral in the garden Hmm

lindamagoo · 27/03/2014 10:05

SaRaRa i think I'm about 7/8dpo but don't really know when I ov'd. I'm pretty sure it's an evap, looks really dull

SaRaRaRaRa · 27/03/2014 09:53

Sorry Nordic Thanks

Linda are you sure that is an evap? How many dpo are you?
