Test with me on Sunday RedBuny! Then we can share our joy/disappointment/doubts etc etc! I have a funny feeling I'm gonna be out this month, nothing specific just think I am! Yay to the surges going on, hope your seduction works! :)

RedBunny · 04/07/2014 07:38

Although I've just read that hcg shows in your blood usually 3-4 days after implantation and then a couple days after that shows in your urine.
But I don't feel pregnant. Last two times I did. The time before I did feel pregnant but didn't realise that's what it was. So.... I'm not feeling terribly optimistic. But shall test again 12dpo incase.

RedBunny · 04/07/2014 07:33

I am 10dpo. I POAS today cuz I have the superdrug tests which are 10miu. I thought I had implantation pains on 6dpo so I figured by now hcg would be in my urine. But BFN. I feel like maybe it didn't stick? Maybe I imagined it all to begin with??? I don't know. It's early to test but it was an ultra sensitive test and I feel like I'm out now anyway.
Depressing.

Sarahg1 · 04/07/2014 05:36

What DPO are you now red?? Surely it must be nearly time for you??

my ovia app said to poas yesterday and I got a BFN so today when OH went to work at 5 am I forced myself to pee so I couldn't poas and face more disappointment haha. I jusy know I'm not preg so don't know why I'm doing this to myself!

HappilyMrsR · 03/07/2014 22:00

I know Katybear, so frustrating.. I'm on medication that could affect so I (ahem) told my GP a little white lie that we had been trying since jan so I'm going for my 21 day blood test next week. Been told to do it 7 days before AF due but as it's always slightly different I will go 7 dpo which is what I've read is the most accurate.

Wonder if the other ladies have cracked and poas by now?!

Katybear123 · 03/07/2014 21:52

Hi happilymrsr, it's v annoying but good to I hope. Period is very very light but I'm sure it must be one as 2 days running so surely that counts. Hopefully as you says this means it's all working properly. This is 1st time ttc and like you guys I just want this to happen now, how do people enjoy this or stay calm - it's madness!

HappilyMrsR · 03/07/2014 21:34

Newbie6 - could def be a sign although such early signs are actually quite rare I'm still searching for them.. 11th not too far away.

What's sad is that I'm going to bed thinking 'ooh hope I wake up feeling a bit nauseous tomorrow' or hoping for cramps - they could be signs! I'm such a loser!

I said I wouldn't become obsessed and it's only cycle 2! Fail. X

newbie6 · 03/07/2014 21:29

Oooh, I'm going to POAS on the 11th if I can hold out that long which will be day before AF is due! I am trying not to symptom spot BUT have realised that I am quite spotty on my face and a tiny bit on my boobs which is unusual for me.....is this a sign???? I'm 4dpo I think! Xx

HappilyMrsR · 03/07/2014 21:16

Sorry to hear that Katybear, how annoying. Know what you mean, even when you get AF, after the disappointment at least you know it's another cycle and things are working properly.

Have you been preg before? I know quite a few of you have. I haven't so just hoping there are no issues. Thinking about going for the 21 day blood test to check I am ovulating - although as I get ov pain I assume I am ovulating. Ov pain = ovulation I hope? Just no idea what to expect and how long it will take...

Only 2 dpo, it's gonna be a long ass tww... I bet I cant wait until 10 dpo to poas!

Katybear123 · 03/07/2014 20:47

Hey guys, wishing you all baby dust. You all deserve it. I think, I may just have had af arrive, keep all crossed. Yesterday had blood in cm, today light but defiance flow not cm I'm hoping it continues because this must mean I'm going to have a cycle right? And therefore whilst I have no idea how long cycle 2 will be I'm going to pray its 28 days and if it is, then we will be away of hol at the perfect time so I am praying that the planets align for me :-)

HappilyMrsR · 03/07/2014 20:41

Positive thinking RedBunny - I love it!

Yeah why was I worried about getting pregnant as a teenager, and how do these people manage to get 'accidentally' pregnant?!

Everything crossed.. Using OPKs and this month have tried fertility gel to help speed the sperm toward the egg so hoping that has worked.. Let the symptom-spotting commence!

RedBunny · 03/07/2014 20:25

I seem to be testing again before everyone else too? Have I no testing partners this week??

blankfornames · 03/07/2014 20:21

Still lurking here! Redbunny, hang on three more days, then you'll know for sure. If you test before then...you'll only be annoyed if you test too early! As for the CBFM, it worked for me on my first month. Highly recommend it!
Ladyflower, I expect you'll be quiet on the airwaves for the next few days...get busy!! Wink

RedBunny · 03/07/2014 20:19

Hey there HappilyMrsR! Yes come join us! We're all gonna get our BFPs this month!

Yes I need realised how difficult it actually is to get pregnant really! There's a lot involved! And I think back to being a teenager and having hardly any sex even when on the pill and using a condom cuz I was so scared to get pregnant! Grin

HappilyMrsR · 03/07/2014 19:46

Getting nervous/excited reading all these posts! Can I join? Currently 2 dpo, AF due 15 July. Determined not to test until 10 dpo even though I've just been and bought tons of preg tests from superdrugs! A few expensive ones and lots of cheapo ones.

BD three times during high fertility and then once early morning on peak day and then had ov pains 2pm the same day so pretty sure I OV'd...

TTC #1 cycle 2. sigh Who knew it took so much planning/concentration?! Good luck to you all!

RedBunny · 03/07/2014 19:37

How you people all hold out so long I do not know! I guess I just have no patience. Or maybe I quite like to POAS!

RedBunny · 03/07/2014 19:34

Oh don't worry I will confess if I do!! I'm not terribly good at rules though....

TerrysNo2 · 03/07/2014 18:44

ladyflower I am going to wait until the 20 July if I can, it's my birthday on the 19th and I want to enjoy my party (of course I won't go crazy!) If AF comes I would expect it before then anyway. looking forward to the POAS action from everyone else!

ladyflower23 · 03/07/2014 18:13

Ha ha redbunny if you suddenly go quiet we will know you have POAS on the sly and broken the 12 dpo rule!
I am same as you terrys, lh surge today so due to ov within next 36 hours. Exciting! Pinpan and I have joint booked poas for 18 July. Care to join us?!

RedBunny · 03/07/2014 17:46

When am I allowed to test? Maybe I should just do it secretly and not tell!!
I wouldn't be able to. I'd have to share my disappointment and doubts....!!

pinpan · 03/07/2014 17:23

Don't do it Redbunny! You'll just be disappointed. Think of that lovely shiny star...

RedBunny · 03/07/2014 15:08

Yes Terrys that'll be your LH surge then! So you are meant to ovulate within the next 36 hours! Better be DTD.
Yes Sarah I did buy one. So.... I suppose even if I don't get pregnant it's a little consolation that I get a new gadget to play with next month??

RedBunny · 03/07/2014 15:06

Thanks Terrys. But I already don't drink! So I'm keen to get on to being pregnant as it's only foods that I have trouble giving up! Baked Camembert and rare steak. That is the hard part! So I'm having some Camembert tonight!

Sarahg1 · 03/07/2014 15:00

red I'm trying the sod's law approach.

Buy it, and hope it works. If it does then sell it to me! haha

TerrysNo2 · 03/07/2014 14:58

Oh and my test line on the OPK is miles darker than the control line so that means ovulation is imminent right??
