Oh victoria I'm so sorry. Big hugs to you ThanksThanks

Cariad2014 · 16/11/2014 21:01

Enormous hugs Victoria. Flowers So sorry AF has arrived.

As I keep saying to myself we WILL get there eventually, even if the journey isn't as straightforward as we initially thought and we need a little help along the way. Thinking of you.

victoria401 · 16/11/2014 20:53

Shite, just went to the loo and wiped. Full on fresh blood. 3 days early. 2nd month with a short lp :-(

2 year anniversary ttc in Dec. Looks like it is to be the "assisted conception" route after all. Stupid me to think we could make a baby this month when we couldn't any other. Feck.

Gonna quietly watch to see who else gets bfps but I won't be on the Dec bus. Going back over to the other side the infertility threads

MissMrsMummy · 16/11/2014 20:41

Blue500 · 16/11/2014 19:23

Defo symptom! I've fainted a few times in the past and first thing everyone asks is am I pg? Wink

kissinggiraffe · 16/11/2014 19:11

So I nearly fainted today, had to steady myself on the breakfast bar. I feel really dizzy and light - headed still. Symptom?? I've never had it before.
OH also commented on my enormous looking norks this morning.....typical man!

Blue500 · 16/11/2014 19:07

xBlueberry - you and I are completely cycle twins - I also had my positive on opk today and our bfp's are due the same day too - come on the blues! Grin

Bluesky fx af stays away for you

Twinky many congrats

lucieloos · 16/11/2014 18:58

Thanks Cariad, AF due on Friday for me so not too long to wait although I'm going to be on toilet watch for spotting for the next couple of days Shock

Treaclepie19 · 16/11/2014 18:56

Definitely cariad!
Although I've only really got 3 days left (after today). Some perks to a short lp :p

Thepurplegiraffe · 16/11/2014 18:50

Genni not to get your hopes up but I was most definitely irrationally angry in the week or so before I got my bfp. About a week before I got so angry with DH over something really small that I felt like crying. That was the first time I wondered if I might be pregnant.

Sorry you are having such a confusing time Bluesky really hope it's not af.

Congratulations Twinkle!

Cariad2014 · 16/11/2014 18:49

Huge congrats Twinky.

Keeping everything crossed for you Bluesky Here's hoping that AF stays away and you get a strong second line on your test tomorrow.

Sunbathing - can't believe your scan's so close - eeeek! Keeping everything crossed for you.

I really hope this is your month Lucie - same goes for Treacle (although I'm sure you'd both join me in wishing that someone could invent a fast forward button for the last seven days of the 2ww).

Glad you got a positive opk Blueberry and good work on the dtd front. I would so love for you to have a pre-Christmas BFP.

Sorry about the BFN Terrys - so utterly rubbish. Big hugs Flowers

Sorry you've been feeling emotional Genni - this TTC business is SO difficult.

Treaclepie19 · 16/11/2014 18:28

Eek sunbathing! How far will you be then? :)

I feel dodgy. Af must be on the way. I just want af to come now if im not pregnant as I've now decided I might be :p

Sunbathing, can't be too long until your scan now?

MrsE, where have you gone? I'm sure you're still lurkingGrin

Treaclepie19 · 16/11/2014 16:39

Congrats twinky :)

Fingers crossed for you bluesky :)

I'm 7dpo today... not long to go. Even though I started off assuming I'm definitely not pregnant I'm now hoping I could be.
Will test Wednesday/thursday rather than tomorrow due to late ovulation.

lucieloos · 16/11/2014 16:13

That's good to hear sunbathing! My luteal is normally always 13days apart from the last 2 cycles which were only 10 days Hmm It could go either way really. I will see if I get anymore spotting tomorrow. I was was rather hoping my cycle would be back to normal this month so crossing my fingers tightly that I don't! It was only a tiny bit today the size of a pin head

TerrysNo3 · 16/11/2014 16:01

congratulations twinky!! Grin

bluesky it sounds exciting but as usual time will tell, I'll be keeping my fx for you!

sorry about the BFNs and AF. As expected the frer I just did was a BFN. I am disappointed but just been talking to DH about his best man and his wife who have been trying for the past year with zero success (and I know some of you on here are TTC #1) and so I don't think I can complain too much as I'm very blessed with 2 DC already.

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 16/11/2014 16:00

Bluesky all sounds quite promising. My early pregnancy cramps have always been pretty bad and last time I had a stretching and pulling sensation at about 9 weeks but apparently the more times you've been pregnant the more you feel the pains. It's all so different for everyone though. I truely hope for a BFP and a super sticky bean for you.

Genni sorry you are feeling rubbish Thanks

It's so hard not to let it become all consuming. I've been away all weekend visiting friends and I thought I would forget about ttc as it was such a busy weekend. But in reality it's all I've thought about aargggh

Blueskygirl30 · 16/11/2014 15:50

Beautician yep, I'm TTC #1 and it's my first ever second line on a test too. Hopefully it won't develop into full on AF but I'm trying not to raise my hopes up too much. I've got pretty strong cramping going on too, way worse then I ever normal get with AF. Wishing you lots of luck for your test tomorrow!

Genni sorry you're feel snappy. I get like that at different times of the month and I get so angry at myself for being snappy for no reason, which only serves to make me sad and even more snappy

Thank you to everyone wishing me well. I'm so glad I've got you guys to talk to about all this TTC malarkey!

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 16/11/2014 15:35

Twinky Congratulations Smile

Miss Im repeating myself so apologies to all that have read this before. My BFP has never shown with all my previous pregnancies until 14dpo. So there's still hope.

Bluesky I really hope its a BFP. Obviously you will be on the lookout now for anything. Is this your first? I have had a friend that had a 'period' each month for the first 5 months of pregnancy albeit an extremely light one I've heard it a lot. Also spotting is very common at the start so hopefully you will get a stronger line tomorrow fx.

I will test tomorrow if af hasn't arrived. I'm incredibly crampy but tmi I have become quite constipated. I actually went for a wee earlier & got a little disheartened at seeing blood on the paper but again TMI I realised it was from my bottom Sad

lucieloos · 16/11/2014 15:30

The last two cycles I have had spotting around 10dpo but that is not normal for me and I ovulated much later than usual on those cycles because of I think taking large doses of epo and figured maybe my cycle is trying to balance itself out and therefore making the luteal phase shorter so AF still arrives around the same time.

This cycle I have stopped epo and ovulation was back to when it normally was and so am hoping my luteal will also be back to normal which is 13dpo and no spotting. The spotting I had today wasn't like the other 2 cycles as when that started there would be a fair amount there and would be there practically every other time on wiping almost like a very light flow but today there was just the teeniest bit and nothing more at all.

I guess I will probably know one way or another tomorrow if there is anymore spotting.

Sorry that you are feeling snappy, it probably is a combination of ttc and hormones, it's not easy Hmm

spinningirl10 · 16/11/2014 15:20

Victoria, sorry for your spotting, hope it isn't af on her wayThanks

Bluesky, fx the spotting is just implantation and the positive hpt is trueThanks

Genni, sorry you're down. This ttc is so tough when you've been trying for a whileThanks did you decide against acupuncture?
I had to cancel my first appointment which was this Tuesday due to work. I've left 2 messages for her but she still hasn't got back to me. I think I may have to try elsewhere.

victoria401 · 16/11/2014 15:16

Oh blue big hugs x x

genni that sounds like me last week! In a way it was probably good I was shut away in my lone working environment or someone might have died! Hormones eh? Hope you feel better tomorrow x

Just been for a run and had to come back early coz my cramps have suddenly got stronger and I just want to cwtch down at home now :-(
