I have to admit some times I've had to force myself, been very tired lol. But it will all be worth it IF it pays off!

Haha love a quickie!!

toothachereturns · 24/04/2014 20:17

NewlymrsB · 24/04/2014 19:20

AF will probably still show and laugh in my face!!!

RPopz · 24/04/2014 18:14

Welcome back Newly! Feeling like a bit of an underachiever reading your post!! Grin

NewlymrsB · 24/04/2014 17:53

Surprising feel fine! Have used conceive plus a few times so that may have helped! Hubby has been loving this cycle I think secretly he doesn't want me to fall this month! lol bit worried what I'm going to have to do next month if all this shagging hasn't worked!!!???
Victoria I feel for u my sil just had a baby!

victoria401 · 24/04/2014 16:50

Omg! Newly! You must be sore!

I know what you mean about preg people! Got a newly announced workmate with the start of a cute little bump and then yesterday the 2 on maternity popped in to say hi, one with 5wk old bubba and one with humungous bump who is now 1 day overdue! Was hoping she didn'tpop in the ttearoom!

NewlymrsB · 24/04/2014 16:41

Yep so if I don't get a bfp I'm going to go mad!! I just seem to see pregnant people EVERYWHERE!!!

wiltingfast · 24/04/2014 16:28

Jaysus, fair play Newly Grin you totally deserve a BFP after than much shagging!

NewlymrsB · 24/04/2014 16:18

Hi ladies,

Have been taking a break from here as I was so upset I got af last month after being 2 days late :( :(

Congrats to Drew!!! Very pleased to hear this!

I've really gone for it this month, on Cd 24 (last month af arrived cd35) I've dtd on days 6,8,10,12,13,15,17,18,19,20,21,22,23 and plan to keep going till either af or bfp!!! I'm on a mission lol!!!

RPopz · 24/04/2014 14:03

Being in limbo must be pretty annoying!

EVERYTHING is annoying me today. Esp DH. Eurgh. Angry

victoria401 · 24/04/2014 12:31

Nothing.

Keep getting wierd cramps etc tho. I'll give it a few more days as I based due date on ov date and not average cycle length. App still says 3 days til due, but app doesn't know when I ovd and I can't tell it. Stupid app.

RPopz · 24/04/2014 12:28

Any sign of evil AF Victoria? x

victoria401 · 24/04/2014 06:46

10 months plus ttc, supporting each other and staying positive.

I'd def see new doctor about it. I'm not trying to scare you or anything but your other half may need checking out too? Mine is bein checked out next week and making a big fuss over it as men do ;-)

Naz83 · 23/04/2014 23:04

Hey Victoria401, last GP was a bit hesitant on tests, only gave me blood test to check I was ovulating as normal, thankfully I was. Her advice was to dtd more often (seems simple enough but we had heavy work schedules so tried timing ovulation only). Recently moved home and new GP, so fingers crossed for better care. Plus relaxed work schedules so having more fun!! Fingers crossed for everybody to get a positive result on that little stick!! What is the name of the older thread?

victoria401 · 23/04/2014 21:20

Hi Naz! Do you track ov? If u are regular and ovd around day 14 you would be 7dpo. Poss too early (but not impossible) for implantation so you shouldnt have any symptoms of pregnancy in theory. I think the earliest you can test is 6 days before period is due but its not accurate and I never do. Lots of ladies on here do tho with various results! My test in the drawer says its only about 55% accurate used 6 days early so not great odds for getting the right result.

You are kind of getting the same symptoms as me this month from 6dpo. Fingers crossed for us :-)

Have you had any tests to make sure you're both working properly if you've been ttc 2 years? You're entitled to tests after 12 months. Me and hubby are just going through ours now after ttc 17months. I'm also on a very good 10+month thread. Come and join us if you need more advice off the longer term try-ers. Nice girls :-)

RPopz · 23/04/2014 20:18

Think they're called clearblue digital. The "result" is a smiley face which flashes.... until your peak day and then you get a solid smiley. So no squinting at lines and controls!

Naz83 · 23/04/2014 20:16

Hi guys. Completely new to adding comments but regularly get tips from here. Been trying for over 2 years with no luck!! Getting weird symptoms this time though. On CD21 of regular 28. Dtd on CD10,16,17 (hubby had days away for work in between). Feel nauseous, weak and tired. Dull pain in lower abdomen for last few days and a lot more discharge than normal. Tested yesterday but negative, too early?? Help

toothachereturns · 23/04/2014 20:06

What are the smiley face ones and are they expensive? Good luck with your bloods!

RPopz · 23/04/2014 20:01

Thankfully not in work again til Monday so can't look the results up myself.... Confused

victoria401 · 23/04/2014 19:59

Good luck rpopz and tooth!

RPopz · 23/04/2014 19:53

I think this is why the smiley face ones are better! Wink Better get on it tonight in anycase Tooth...

I'm having day 21 bloods done tomorrow Sad

toothachereturns · 23/04/2014 19:24

I took a photo of it, but can't upload as I'm using my phone. I got a definite negative result last night.

toothachereturns · 23/04/2014 19:23

Victoria - the test line is darker than the other line..... that's a good positive isnt it?Confused

victoria401 · 23/04/2014 19:12

Proper pos or weak pos/regarded as neg still? I was getting a weak line from cd6 last month. It grad got darker until cd11 then totally neg on cd12!
