Hey all
My tww starts again today. 4th cycle. Just had 2 full days of positive opks and lots of bd with dh.

So let the crazy symptom spotting begin and the madness that is the tww.

Anyone else in the tww - hoping to hear lots of bfp stories xx

I'm on day 42 today and still no af.
No bfp either though :(. Fed up now.

Joey0805 · 08/11/2014 17:49

Haha that would be terrible! My parents are here tonight so I have hidden everything...

I will do a final yest in 3 days if still no AF but at 17 DPO it would almost certainly have been positive by now. I think this is just a really long, weird and hopeful one off cycle.

HairStylistToBoris · 08/11/2014 14:46

Sorry Joey, that's rubbish. Any chance of a false negative? Will you keep testing.
Sorry for the crap spelling in my previous messages, bloody auto correct coupled with trying to type and juggle loads of other things.
We are selling the house at the moment, it's back on the market after 3 previous sales fell through. I had a really vivid dream last night that I cleaned up manically for today's open day but left all my used opk and pregnancy test stuff scattered everywhere. Woke up in a cold sweat! I've been gripped by the fear of actually having done that all day!

Joey0805 · 08/11/2014 13:57

Sorry, that's 17 DPO not 10...

Joey0805 · 08/11/2014 13:56

BFN for me at 10dpo (FMU). I'm not at all surprised just wish AF would show up so I can get on with the next cycle... Hope the rest of you have more luck this month!

HeavenKnowsImMiserableNow · 08/11/2014 08:46

Thanks NoArmani, I got a bfn this morning so will be putting in an order for some Internet cheapies later

loopylou1984 · 08/11/2014 07:43

Welcome Mish Smile

MishMooshAndMogwai · 07/11/2014 22:08

Can I join?? I'm 10 DPO, not trying but not actively preventing IYSWIM. Effectively DTD twice within my fertile window, once 3 days before OV and once the day of OV.

Not getting excited yet, feeling sick and slightly sore boobs but had the same last month and more and got a BFN so not getting caught up in it. Just getting veeeery bored of waiting!!

loopylou1984 · 07/11/2014 21:47

Noarmani it doesn't show the sensitivity on the pic, but they look the same as mine which are 10mIU so should be pretty sensitive Smile

HairStylistToBoris · 07/11/2014 21:40

Theproof I'm with you, glad or errr 2 for the same reason, no baby could be affected yet. I've only been track for 3 months now but this is the longest week in the longest month.... X

TheProofIsInThePudding · 07/11/2014 21:24

Also, I think today must have been the longest day ever. Time seems to stretch out indefinitely in the TWW. Maybe I'm trapped in a worm hole.

Anyway, I was slightly naughty and helped DH polish off a bottle of Wine this evening. If I am pregnant the placenta won't have formed yet and so none will have passed to the baby. And if I'm not I don't want to have abstained for no reason! This time next week I should have an answer. It seems both very close and very far away. (Bloody worm hole!)

TheProofIsInThePudding · 07/11/2014 21:05

slaps joey Do another test tomorrow with FMU! You're welcome Grin

CrazyCatMomma · 07/11/2014 20:48

Great news Hopeful, congrats Smile

NoArmaniNoPunani · 07/11/2014 17:50

I got these ones

loopylou1984 · 07/11/2014 17:50

Joey - your post made me laugh! I've fished one out the bathroom bin before now just to 'double check' lol.
Day 41 now and still no af or bfp. My boobs are sore though which means af could be on her way.... I'm very rarely more than 30 days though, and never been more than 32 so am very confused!

No Armani - check the packet, mIU figure of 10 is one of the most sensitive - my internet cheapies are this. X

HeavenKnowsImMiserableNow · 07/11/2014 17:42

Hi NoArmani,

Where do you get your Internet cheapies from? Fx my poas will give me a BFP tomorrow but just in case my body is playing tricks on me.

NoArmaniNoPunani · 07/11/2014 17:28

Congrats hopeful :)

My cheap internet tests have just turned up. 10 for a tenner and they say you can test up to 3 days before a missed period. I'm guessing the cheap tests aren't as sensitive though. Is that right? 3 days before would be Wednesday

hopefull2424 · 07/11/2014 17:16

Hi joey. I can't tell you hun because that's exactly what I've been like this week :/ fx for you all xxx

Joey0805 · 07/11/2014 17:00

Speaking of the last test, this is so rank and so pointless as I looked at it 48 hours after testing BUT I may or may not have kept it (gross I know) and I had a look yesterday and if I squint a lot and look at it from a particular angle there was a faint 2nd line...super faint but coloured (and my understanding was evap lines are clear?). Now please can you all tell me off for a) being rank enough to keep peed on sticks, b) for looking at the test again 48 hours after the result is irrelevant and c) for clutching at straws...

Joey0805 · 07/11/2014 16:56

Fx it's just too early flower...

It's 16 DPO for me and absolutely no sign that AF is on the way. This is now the longest i have ever not had a period (today is CD34 and the period I had before was barely anything) and it feels so weird... Almost certain that it's my body adjusting after so long on the pill but I will POAS tomorrow in case the last test I did was too early.

Flower29 · 07/11/2014 16:06

Thanks Hair. Just done a test and bfn! Must have all been in my head, feel like an idiot now and my body's tricked me. Confused Think I'll be cracking the wine open tonight - and better dtd too! Wink

HairStylistToBoris · 07/11/2014 15:20

Flower so sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Hope you are doing on now.
It really makes me want to POAS but for the next day or so it would be like pissing on money. I even just went to the pharmacy at work to buy a test in anticipation but the pharmacy was full and I didn't want anyone to recognise me!

Flower29 · 07/11/2014 14:36

Congratulations hopeful!
I had a miscarriage in September and I think I am now about 14dpo, but tbh I'm not 100% sure as I've not really had a proper period yet and my ovulation signs weren't as strong as normal! I just have a feeling i might be pregnant but wanted to wait til next Friday. Seeing your result is making me want to test today though - so hard to wait!!

loopylou1984 · 07/11/2014 13:29

Hair - I'm still the same. No news either way Hmm
The only difference is my boobs are starting to hurt like they usually do before af so maybe she's on her way. X

hopefull2424 · 07/11/2014 13:27

Thank you all. I'm still shocked. It took us so long to get pg for my other dcs. This is only cycle 4.
Going to tell dh in the morning. My little secret for tonight :)
