Hi all, just an update.

The wait is over for me, just went to the loo and there it was when I wiped myself, AF looking up to me with her sarcy smile Hmm

Really gutted!

lilygirl81 · 22/07/2015 13:35

3Princess that's rubbish. Fx you manage to dtd at least once.

3Princes99 · 22/07/2015 13:23

Ovia says today I've hit my fertile window and guess what! Woke up this morning with a stinking cold a pretty much feel like crap. Must find the energy from somewhere over the next 4 days to DTD

Carrot- is your app saying you'll ovulate later due to your af being late last time due to CP maybe? Just do your opk's and it'll adjust once you put a positive in. Good luck this month!

lilygirl81 · 22/07/2015 12:21

madredear I'm impressed at your patience, I can barely get to AF date without a few POS.

I've realised that I have a real tendency to jump into things very quickly, right now I'm struggling not to start buying things, either to help with TTC or maternity or baby things. When we got the puppy, the month before we picked him up, I bought so much stuff for him it was ridiculous. So far managing reasonably well, and am channelling my behaviours into decluttering and cleaning our flat Smile

pocopearl · 22/07/2015 12:02

Currently 6dpo and symptom spotting like a mad woman (i know nothing to spot yet really) although yesterday I had what felt like period pains across my ovary region and lower back, and possibly some spotting (v v v v v feint - much like my imaginary bfp lines).

Madredear · 22/07/2015 10:00

Lilygirl81, I'm giving it until Monday and then if AF doesn't arrive, I'll test again. Something certainly isn't right so part of me isn't even expecting AF, although I perhaps should be Confused

lilygirl81 · 22/07/2015 09:56

So sorry for AF kitty

madredear maybe it just wasn't enough time or pee, maybe try again with a different test?

CarrotVan · 22/07/2015 09:06

Good luck today birchy

Madredear · 22/07/2015 09:02

WOW! Congratulations Auf Shock July seems like a really positive month.

Really not sure why it'd be telling you that Carrot, unless, you have a longer cycle and you actually ovulate a little unusually early.

I took a test yesterday on my break with a drop (of concentrated) urine as I couldn't wee much.. It was negative. But, it was a cheap pound one and I'm sure you have to wait 5+ minutes for a result.. Not 2 tops (had to get back to my desk).

Nipples still painful but no sign of AF. I'm getting fed up now and unsure why I got a negative if I was actually pregnant, as I'm well over due now for a period and know when i ovulated.

CarrotVan · 22/07/2015 08:15

Does anyone have any thoughts on why FF think I'll ov on Cd19 when I always ov on cd14/15?

Sizzle81 · 22/07/2015 08:13

Congrats Auf!!

CarrotVan · 22/07/2015 08:02

Congratulations auf so pleased for you

Sorry for AF kitty

Notrobusta · 22/07/2015 08:02

Can I join please. I am 39 and tcc my third after a big age gap so a bit rusty I'm afraid. Just about to go into second month of trying. AF visiting at the moment although part of me wonders if actually it isn't proper AF as was convinced I was pregnant. Probably wishfull thinking.

KittyandTeal · 22/07/2015 07:56

It obviously wasn't a faint line. Af has arrived! Rubbish but I'm glad I'm not waiting around!

I wonder what that spotting was then, do I need to get it checked out?

rebelly · 22/07/2015 07:47

I know what you mean. I would say wait a couple days and test again maybe Friday. I'm with you - af due any time fri - wed (I'm always irregular) thought it was coming early yesterday with spotting but now no sign. Who knows! Want to test every fifteen minutes (I know I sound bonkers) but promised myself will wait until Friday if af stays away. FX!

KittyandTeal · 22/07/2015 07:30

Thanks. I'm not entirely sure there was a line or if I was seeing one because I want to if that makes sense?

rebelly · 22/07/2015 06:57

How frustrating kitty. I'm no expert but I feel like I've read that any sort of line is a good sign. Anyone else have an opinion on that? Try not to think about it too much today. Easier said than done I know

And congrats London

KittyandTeal · 22/07/2015 06:29

Well after a test this morning I'm no clearer! I think it was negative but there seemed to be a really, really faint line. Af due today, normally arrived overnight and no sign except this cramping which I've now had for 4 days.

I feel very sick too but I think that's anxiety. I'm preparing for a slightly late period I think. God knows what's going on with my body though!

Londonlady2015 · 22/07/2015 05:58

Morning

auf congrats! Sorry I've been thread hopping and hadn't made an appearance here for a while. Hope you're feeling ok. I've been awake since 2 Sad

Good look birchy this week and fx today kitty hope you're ok

Aufwiedersehenpetrarch · 22/07/2015 05:41

Aufwiedersehenpetrarch · 22/07/2015 05:40

Thanks guys! I'm so very pleased. Awesome news about london too! Grin

3Princes99 · 21/07/2015 23:32

Congratulations Auf!!!
London got her BFP too!! It's on the summer bus thread. Really good month for BFP

Good luck with your appointment Birchy let us know how it goes

rebelly · 21/07/2015 21:58

Congratulation auf, great news.
fx for everyone else

weechops · 21/07/2015 21:45

birchy good luck for tomorrow

auf huge congratulations!

pocopearl I remember you from the 2012/2013 buses!! So sorry for your losses.

Good luck to everyone testing soon.

I had good news from dh tonight - he's coming home a few days earlier than expected so should be here round about 23 September, and if my cycles stay 29 days then I'm due to ov around the 25th, so he'll be here at the absolute perfect time yay!!

MsGlitterJunkie · 21/07/2015 21:30

Good luck for tomorrow birchy do let us know how you get on.

I'm booked in for 11 Sept but I'm checking daily for cancellations. And I can definitely relate to the stress issue, am trying and failing valiantly to find my inner zen, apparently it does make a difference but knowing me I'll get stressed about trying not to be stressed sigh #can'twin
