hey ladies, I know some people on here had some issues when taking pregnacare conception vitamins so I was just wondering what alternatives were recommended? thanks!

oh also, from tomorrow I'm going to try temping vaginally to see if I can smooth out my rocky mountain! Grin

CoffeeOne · 17/11/2014 08:56

Lol spinning I had my detective hat on whilst I did it Grin

I blame the handy torch on my phone. No more investigating for me!

TerrysNo3 · 17/11/2014 07:57

MissMrs I don't think you so should rule yourself out yet, it's not over until AF arrives so fx for you.

sunbathing that's very exciting about your scan, a week is not long at all and it will fly by Smile

sorry about AFs, see you on the December bus!

spinningirl10 · 17/11/2014 07:51

Blue, sorry you have a uti, hope it clears up soonThanks

Jessie, sorry af arrived. Good luck next cycle.

Missmrs, keeping fx for you.

Treacle, fx for you as well.

Treaclepie19 · 17/11/2014 07:44

Still a chance missmrs :)
Ive just had one spot of pale pink blood. Wasn't even sure it was there. 8dpo.

JessieMcJessie · 17/11/2014 07:27

Congrats and best of luck to all the BFPs on the bus so far.

I'm off at the next stop unfortnately, AF has shown up today so despite all our very carefully timed DTD, nothing doing. I suppose I was always going to have been very very lucky to have hit the jackpot on our first cycle but gutted nonetheless, us over 40s don't have time to hang about. Still, AF has arrived bang on time for a 28 day cycle and I Ov'd on day 15 so looks like all is in decent working order at least.

Off to join the December bus. Have ordered a bumper pack of OPKs, HPTs, a farenheit thermometer and a box of pre-seed from Amazon, so will be well kitted up at least!

Blue500 · 17/11/2014 07:23

Woke up with a uti this morning grrrr. So annoyed as I know it's because I didn't pee after dtd yesterday so am kicking myself. Am in so much pain and feeling sorry for myself (again - oh God so many things wrong with me) Hmm

broodylicious · 17/11/2014 07:10

May still be a chance miss, hang in there, until AF arrives, you're not out just yet. I got my bfp on a frer at 9dpo but everyone is different, as we all know Smile

MissMrsMummy · 17/11/2014 06:54

11dpo and bfn on a frer.

No AF (due yesterday)

Would a BFP be showing by now on a frer?

Not sure if I should be just waiting for AF to arrive now or if there's still a chance?

broodylicious · 17/11/2014 06:44

Just popping on to say hello! And kissing - I'd never had the faintness, lightheaded thing until two weeks ago tomorrow (I'd have been 4dpo) and a few days later, I got my bfp. Just sayin....Grin

spinningirl10 · 17/11/2014 06:24

Morning Grin

Sunbathing, 1 week! I know you'll be super nervous but I have everything crossed for you.

Victoria and Terry, so sorry af has arrived early for you both. Victoria I really hope the new year and the assisted route bring you your bfpThanks

Treacle, smelly wee is a symptom Grin

Coffeeone, love that you've been shining a light at your hpts but I shall remember not toGrin

mzzzf that sounds exciting! keep us updated Smile

cariad I haven't taken anything, I've been too scared to mess with mother nature. But I've just read that low progesterone levels can cause EPs so I'm wondering if that's a problem with me? Also since the ectopic my post ovulation temp rises haven't been as high as they used to be.

CoffeeOne · 16/11/2014 23:14

Congratulations twinky

So sorry victoria really hope you get your bfp soon.

Sorry to those who've got af :(

Word of advice ladies, don't shine a light on your frers because you will see a line and become momentarily excited. But it's an indent where the line should be. It also shows up on tests that have not been wee'd on. Gits.

mzzzf · 16/11/2014 22:55

Ola ladies! Hope everyone has managed to enjoy some parts of the weekend despite the horror of the TWW.

I think I'm cd22, 8 ish dpo. Buuuuuut I've has excess creamy cm yesterday, some cramps today and my cm whilst still creamy is tinged like when foundation is wiped with cotton wool. No actual red/ blood yet, so I'm hoping it's something exciting like implantation rather than AF arriving 4-6 days early. We shall see! I'm going to wait until Wednesday to wee on a stick, I stupidly did one today and unsurprisingly it was a bfn.

Terry as long lp is at least 10 days you're 'reet Grin. 10 is the magic number, I'm saying this as my lp isn't terrifically long either so I've looked into it lots!!

There are some promising symptoms ladies - come on those BFPs!!

Cariad2014 · 16/11/2014 22:48

Terrys - I'm no expert but did you do anything differently this month (e.g. Soy; EPO)? As if so, I suspect this may have impacted your LP.

"Taking Charge of Your Fertility" seems to suggest that although quite consistent, it is perfectly normal for your LP to vary by a few days from cycle to cycle, although the example given is normally 13 but sometimes 12 and sometimes 14.

I suspect your body might just be re-setting itself and will be back to your norm come next cycle.

MissMrsMummy · 16/11/2014 22:41

illiria glad you have ov'd and hope you feel better

MissMrsMummy · 16/11/2014 22:40

Oh no, so sorry victoria and terrys

LP should be 10-14 days terrys so that's considered ok.

TerrysNo3 · 16/11/2014 22:35

so AF has just arrived 3 days early giving me a LP of 10 days which is the shortest I've ever had. Since the ectopic they've been 14 days and pre-ectopic they were always 12 days. Should I be worried??

Illiria · 16/11/2014 21:51

Yay to the new BFPs. Hope those with tentative BFPs get stronger lines with sticky beans.

Commiserations to those caught out by AF.

kissinggiraffe hope you feel better and no more fainting, also that so sounds symptom worthy :-)

Well finally FF has decided I have Ov'd, curently on 4DPO and have caught DH's cold so symptom spotting neigh on impossible this month. Might be a good thing. Have decided not to temp the rest of the month so I don't get too stressed.

Treaclepie19 · 16/11/2014 21:34

So sorry victoria :(

I have a SYMPTOM. Very strange smelling wee???

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 16/11/2014 21:32

Victoria so sorry af got you Thanks hugs and good luck for a BFP very soon

Bluesky fx for a stronger line in the morning and I hope the bleeding settles

Frolicacid · 16/11/2014 21:29

Evening ladies! I'm sorry it's been another shit day for a lot of us. Wine for those who AF has showed up and lots of Cake for everyone in limbo.

Nothing to report here. 14/15 dpo and no AF or BFP. No symptoms either. I'm trying very hard not to think about it, but failing miserably. Slight hangover from last night's wine has kicked in so I'm going to try for an early night. I hope tomorrow brings some answers for all us ladies in limbo.

Blueskygirl30 · 16/11/2014 21:20

Victoria I'm so sorry AF has come for you again. I really hope that you are successful really soon.

I'm exhausted and off to bed, still bleeding but not heavily so I will see what happens overnight/in the morning.

xBlueberry88x · 16/11/2014 21:09

Blue always good to have a cycle buddy technically I can straddle both buses but i'll stay here

Vicky So sorry AF has got you...we will get our bfps soon its just a shame we have to take the longer route...2 years for us in Jan dreading it

Kissing fx its a sign!

Cariad Thanks for the hope!
