So AF got me this afternoon!! Trying not to get down in the dumps (although I just watched 'one born every minute' on catch-up and sobbed!)
Dusting myself off and hoping for better luck in April! A few stats:
Age-33
TTC-5th cycle
DC-1 DS (3.5 years old)
Anyone else at the start of their cycle and trying something new in the hope of a more successful month?!

Congrats nohair that's great news. Yey for the BFP.

JemI'm using internet cheapy OPKs, got a slightly darker one today, loads of ewcm and I've stopped spotting so I might be back in the game! planning lots of dtd the next few days if DH is up for it.

Mimi are you testing on Thursday?

Oh no Footprints that does sound like AF. Hope it goes well at the GP.

newhairdontcare · 18/04/2016 21:00

First response...Will try and post now.

Congratulations newhair! That's great news. Look forward to hear how u progress X

Well think I'm out this month ladies Sad
The spotting has turned into ugly AF I am sure. Tmi but 4 tampons full today, and cramps this afternoon. I'd better not bleed in two weeks time now otherwise i might go crazy. Yes going to try see gp this week. Gutted Sadfed upSadand annoyedEnvy

Jod1985 · 18/04/2016 20:50

Nope! The only sign of any "blood" was on 2nd-4th April when I had brown discharge when I wiped. The only time I had discharge like that was when I was PG with my Kids and it was implantation BUT if it was that then I would def be getting a positive test by now.

raddersmrs · 18/04/2016 20:35

Jod have you had any bleeding at all since the test?

Jod1985 · 18/04/2016 20:15

I think a part of me wants to stay in blissful ignorance. I sort of don't want to know too early when I am preggers as i stress so much during pregnancy and The 40 weeks drags by. I'm taking my folic acid and I'm not drinking. I don't smoke so it wouldn't be bad not knowing too early.

raddersmrs · 18/04/2016 20:07

It looks slight pink to me. I would try another FRER if I was you but that's just me. Least you would know once and for all. If they showed bit of pink there they should be stronger now. Your symptoms do seem to point to it.

I'm feeling good thank you. Still not sunk in! I well up when I think about the fact I've got a little bean inside me.
We have booked early scan which is 11th may although going to change it to Friday 13th... I'm not superstitious!
I rang doctors this morning and they said they book people in to see midwife at 8 weeks so that's 24th May

I'm definitely realising on this thread how different and wild all our bodies are!

Jod1985 · 18/04/2016 18:17

I think I can see pink on those? I have done any more FRER's as I'm afraid I will break down with the disappointment.

radders ah yes you were weepy too weren't you?

I am an emotional disaster zone. I am like a fountain of overflowing tears! The slightest thing sets me off. I got into work and wept at my desk this morning! God if this pregnancy I really hope the crying phase doesn't last!

SuchaJem · 18/04/2016 17:58

Thanks for all the support re the renting situation. I got myself into such a state over it, I think I'm exhausted from the move and we didn't really sleep last night, I've just cried and cried. Hopefully got it all out now and can pull myself together!

footprints how confusing and upsetting 😕 is it worth seeing your GP do you think?

jod from your symptoms you sound like you are pregnant. Have you got any more frers you could do?

Awesome news nohair! Any symptoms, did you have an inkling?

How are you getting on radders?

I am getting impatient to test now. Only got cheapies at home still, keep meaning to buy a decent test. Will try and pick one up tomorrow!

raddersmrs · 18/04/2016 17:53

Footprints - no explanation at all for what you're going through. Lots of hugs.
Does it look like period blood though? Is it still going??

Jod creamy is a pregnancy sign so that's strange! I had the largest amount today at CD26 but it doesn't show in my knickers still. Do you think those tests you did were indents rather than lines? Were they definitely pink?

Suchjem sorry to hear You're feeling down. Only you know if you have the financial means for a baby and I'm sure would only do it if you can!
I definitely don't think you shouldn't tt because you're renting.
I lived in London before and it's extortionate!! We do own our own house. He's owns one and I own the one we live in but we are not in London! Can't wait for you to do a test though :) sounds like me crying all the time last week. Felt loads better at work today.

Parney · 18/04/2016 17:45

I'm with radders! People here have great eyes!

raddersmrs · 18/04/2016 17:42

Oh please send it newhair! Would love to see it

I like seeing people's positive pics

Parney · 18/04/2016 17:11

What test did you use New?

newhairdontcare · 18/04/2016 16:57

I think I will re-test Thursday / Friday with a digital test

newhairdontcare · 18/04/2016 16:54

Ummm so temptation got the better of me and I bought a test today (3days prior to AF due date). I think it's positive! A solid pink line and a very faint one.

Jod1985 · 18/04/2016 15:06

Today's ovulation test and IC test....

I mentioned Fibroids as I know my ex boss had them and they caused bleeding.

No clue about me at all. TMI but I was walking to school today and I felt very wet down there Blush I thought sure that when I got home and checked it would be the witch. Well it wasn't...instead it was a sizeable amount of creamy discharge Confused Just to add to my confusion lol! I did my ovulation test at noon (pack suggested that was a good time to do it and I held my wee from 8am). So it would appear in not PG (did an IC), I'm not ovulating and I'm not on my period?
OH and I am cramping, my back IS killing me, I feel nauseous and my left nipple is so sore!
I have to laugh!!!

Footprints1 · 18/04/2016 13:36

Jod, no history of fibroids or anything similar. It's really puzzled me. I used clearblue digi ovulation thing as well as the cheapy opks so it's not like I was imagining OV. Had all the signs etc.. I can only just guess cycle must be messed up. Will see how long it lasts... And if AF appears in 14 days? (Or if that will be ovulation again? So annoying!!!

How you doing? Any the wiser to what is going on with u? Xx
