Aaahh ladies so sorry for the BFNs - what a 'mare! Don't let the swimmers get you down. Every bfn is closer to a BFP etc etc. anyway you know the cliches... Chin up ladies, it may just be too early. Really keeping my fingers crossed.

Choccy - keep your head up missus. Thinking of you x

And chandlers - WHHAAATT? You're off?! You'll be sorely missed lady! Really make the most of your time in Thailand. You'll be back pushing prams in rainy London before you know it Grin. LOVING the plan for a dog, they rock! Genuinely hope you get sorted via IVF and good luck x

I may have developed POAS phobia and feel like I should wait until the very last minute to test, or at least when AF is actually due...

lindamagoo · 22/10/2014 17:43

choccy fingers crossed it's nothing bad and just one of those early pregnancy nasties, I bled a lot at the start, well actually even now at 28 wks I'm getting it again, it doesn't always mean the worst and I truly hope that's all it is for you Smile

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 22/10/2014 16:57

Fx choccy hope your bean is ok :(

TerrysNo2 · 22/10/2014 16:54

choccy we are all rooting for this little bean. fx for you.

Treaclepie19 · 22/10/2014 16:51

So sorry choccy :( I really hope it's just pregnancy spotting.

Thanks, I hoped it was just implantation spotting bit seems unlikely with a short lp and I've had a fair bit with some red in there too. Only on wiping but more than I'd think was implantation.
The worst thing about parents evening is ill have to sit there knowing that when I leave ill probably have full flow af.

Me too :'(
I have a scan already booked for next Thursday which I'll still go to. No use doing anything before as they'll just get me to come back then anyway.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 22/10/2014 16:40

Choccy I'm so so sorry! I really thought this was it. Thinking of you Thanks

Cariad2014 · 22/10/2014 16:38

How utterly rubbish Choccy. As Spinning says, there really are no words. Keeping everything crossed for you - here's hoping the spotting was caused by your little bean burrowing deeper and that the bleeding eases. Enormous hugs Thanks

spinningirl10 · 22/10/2014 16:30

Oh ffs Choccy, I'm so very sorry. I don't know what to say but I'll be keeping everything crossed that the bleeding eases and little bean is ok in thereThanks

spinningirl10 · 22/10/2014 16:29

Oh treacle, that sucks, I'm sorry. Parents eve must be the last thing you feel like doingThanks

Choccywoccydodah · 22/10/2014 16:28

Just to let you all know in 5 weeks today and started spotting this morning brown and pink this afternoon. Don't think I can try again of the worst happens.

Cariad2014 · 22/10/2014 16:27

Big hugs Treacle. Fx the spotting is just implantation bleeding, similar to what Sunbathing had when she was convinced she was out. But even if it's not, I'm sure you WILL get there soon. Thinking of you. Thanks

ohlordyplordy · 22/10/2014 16:23

So sorry for the bfns and af. treacle I was convinced it was your turn.
Congratsflower x

Treaclepie19 · 22/10/2014 16:11

Sorry to hear that chandlers :(

Congrats flower :)

Well I'm spotting so guess that's another fucking cycle wasted.
I give up :( plus work has been shit and I have to go back for parents evening at 6.

Congratulations Flower! Thank god for your lovely news!!

Chandlers - I'm so sorry you're body isn't playing ball. But sounds like you have a good plan in place! Enjoy your time in Thailand hun.

lucieloos · 22/10/2014 15:11

Yes it's really difficult with nhs. I also have low amh. What level is yours if you don't mind me asking? Sounds like we are in a similar situation. I think we are looking to start ivf around march time.

gennibugs · 22/10/2014 14:57

Yes lucie we will in January if no luck. With my low amh I can't risk waiting much longer. I'm still right at the start in terms of nhs and I've been in the process months. It's an added worry to be honest!

xBlueberry88x · 22/10/2014 14:34

So sorry to see so many BFN's this morning hopefully its just to early.

Flower congrats!!

Chandlers I responded to your post on the November bus we will miss you!!

Cariad2014 · 22/10/2014 14:32

Enormous hugs Chandlers. Your positivity has been an inspiration since I embarked on my bus journeys, and as Lucie rightly said, you will be much missed.

It sounds as though you're making the right decision for you though. Enjoy the rest of your SE Asian adventures without the stress of endless hospital appointments and please do pop in from time to time to keep us updated. I have thoroughly enjoyed your tales of spa retreats and upside down yoga!

P.s. Loving the dog idea - DH is currently obsessed at the prospect of getting a dachshund.

lucieloos · 22/10/2014 13:31

Yes it does Genni there's no way we would be able to leave it that long. Will you also go private if you need treatment?

WiIdfire · 22/10/2014 13:18

Thank god for your BFP Flowerbomb! I had such high hopes for the rest of you (though not so much for me, so I'm not too disappointed) - but I really thought there might be a flurry of positives. Sad not off the bus yet though...

gennibugs · 22/10/2014 13:05

lucie sounds like you are in a similar position to me. The waiting lists suck big time.

gennibugs · 22/10/2014 13:04

chandlers you will be missed very much. But it sounds like you have made the right decision for you. Enjoy the rest of your time in Thailand.

lindamagoo · 22/10/2014 12:49

Chandlers I'm so sorry to hear your news but it sounds like there's light at the end of the tunnel when you get back home. Enjoy the rest of your time over there. Hope to see you back here one day. Big huge penis dragon hugs to you my lovely Smile

lucieloos · 22/10/2014 12:39

Oh chandlers I'm sorry to hear that, it sounds like it is the right choice though and at least you can relax and enjoy the rest of your amazing time in Thailand. I will really miss you on here, have enjoyed having you about to keep us company on the buses. Please pop back and update us from time to time on how you're doing.

Will be there be much of a waiting list for your free rounds of ivf? I am also looking to embark early next year if I don't get any good news from the next few cycles but the wait is too long in my area for us to consider nhs. I think it's 18 months - 2 years from first appt and I am very conscious of my age so we have no choice but to go private even though we have no money saved for it. Think the credit card will take a battering Hmm
