The November Bus: Bonfires and BFP'S!

MrsNT you can get NHS tests after 6 months of trying if you are over 35 - I did - it's what the NICE guidance says even if you already have a child you get the tests but not treatment - you may have to press your GP a bit and insist/ print out nice guidance and show them if you're me...

Sorry you're feeling low Nucky. I feel your pain. TTC is an emotional rollercoaster, and the bfn/af month after month can really get you down. Did you mention it to the dr when you had your medical?

I don't know what is going on with my body this month. I thought af had arrived on Sunday, but it continued as just spotting for 3 days, then yesterday and today nothing! I though af was due yesterday, so poas this morning, but it was bfn. My cycle varies between 27-31 days, and today is cd29, so it could just be a long cycle, but I've never had spotting that has then stopped before. It normally turns into af. I don't know what to think.

36 hours until test time. I'm hoping its BFP but after my bfn yesterday I'm not getting my hopes up. Would be very lucky to catch on first cycle after finishing the pill.

Sorry MrsNucky its so painful to see af showing up when u know u did every thing possible.don't give up just yet.i had last dd after a year so hang in there and fx this is your cycle !!!

Sorry to hear the sad news from mummy, also yours jw.

Well, I'm officially off this bus and feeling very very low about it. I feel it is never going to happen. I'm toying with paying for some private tests, but I don't know if it is just going to be putting too much pressure on us. We've been trying since May, so it's 'only' seven months but it feels like forever. :(

Thank you for all your kind comments, April & Jw Sorry to hear of your losses I feel that taking a break would be best, obviously if during this time we do fall pg that is great but will stop actively trying for the time being. Not sure I feel emotionally ready for the process of trying again!

Sorry Jw!!another 4-5 days to go(and each day seems like a year).baby dust

Mummy sorry to hear your loss. I mc at 4 weeks 3 days back in September so know the feeling. You can try again straightaway! My dd was the month after a mc last year xx

Argh! I really feel pregnant now! I think I'm 8dpo. Sore boobs (think falling over in gravel) really full and heavy too, creamy cm, aches and pains in uterus-stabbing/prickling etc, cramps ovaries, headache, vivid dreams, cranky calf muscles, bloated and tired! I feel so certain this is it! I'm going to cave and test this weekend (due to test Tuesday/Wednesday). I don't usually get a positive until 12dpo though so Sunday/Monday. Tww is doing my head in! X

Hang in there Thisis,it's a little tough but u will get there.it took me a year to conceive dd but it eventually happened.Fx it will happen soon.Addicted i think it might have been a little early.try poas on friday like planned before.good luck.April fingers crossed that af doesn't show and u get your sticky bean.Purple are you having any symptoms,fx for a bfp

So sorry to hear that mummy

AF not due until Sunday, I hate waiting...

mummy so sorry to hear that, it's such a sad thing even when it's so early so allow yourself time to process it.

I mc at just over 5 weeks and my dr said that there was no reason not to start trying straight away, she said not to dtd until the bleeding has stopped due to risk of infection but other than that it's not a problem. I think sometimes they say wait a month so that you know where you are in your cycle to make it easier for dating if you get pg. I just decided to not worry for the first month an just dtd if I felt like it as then start again properly the month after. Is been 3 months now and currently waiting for a late AF so fingers crossed. All that said if you don't feel emotionally ready to start again then do give yourself a proper break, for me I wanted to feeling like I was actively doing something (forgive the pun) towards getting pg again as knew that would help me

So I poas and was bfn :( I know it's 3 days early and I didn't do the first wee of the day. Was this afternoon actually. Will do another test on Saturday when AF is due but I feel stupid for getting my hopes upon my first cycle

It's month 11, possibly cycle 12 because I've had some stupidly short cycles thrown in to the mix

I know right.just wish there was an easier way to getting preggo.u officially in your tww and that's like the longest period when ttc.what cycle are u on now?

I'm only 2dpo mimi will prob start testing on 28th if I don't before. But that will still be an early test...

I hate the wait. Prolongs the disappointment.

Addicted don't lose hope just yet, Thisis how many dpo are you and when do you want to test.?Fx fx

mummy

Starting to get dull cramps like before AF. Feeling a bit disheartened that I got my hopes up.

So sorry Mummy,hope u feel better soon.Fx for you Jw and Addicted ,keeping an eye on your bfps.hope everyone else is doing well.im only on cd6,so quite a lot of work and waiting for me,eeeish

Absolutely not symptom spotting at a couple of days post ovulation, but I'm bloody exhausted!

mini AF is due Saturday so I am going to try and wait until then if I can. Don't want to do it early and get a bfn when in a couple of day could be a BFP. Would like to know definitely

MummyC so sorry to hear your news. It must be very hard, regardless of how far along you were

Addicted when will you test? Good luck!

Hi everyone!

I'm sad to say we are back to square one.
Looks like I'm back on the bus!
Have miscarried at 4 weeks, 3 days. Although it was very early, feeling very sad at the loss

The doctor said we can start trying again immediately but I am unsure if I am ready. Also unsure how my cycle would work?
