Morning girls, very crampy now and feeling very pre menstrual - pretty sure will be here by lunchtime. Didn't bother doing another IC.

Is 5 months with not a sausage something to be concerned about? Can't shake creeping doubts that something is wrong with one of us.

Really low today Sad

CD49Stargrrr

Looks like the dark cloud of cramps have got us all last night..

I'm with u all on the frustrations waiting for AF now especially if you think you're out. I had am dream last night that I was pregnant. Mind playing cruel tricks.
Sorry physic for bfn, I know though exactly what goes through our crazy minds. I was tempted to do one today but feel it's not worth it. Temptation was there though.

No AF, temp 36.45. Lots of CM last night. Cramps too.

I don't understand why the temp still up? Am I just one hot chick or what? Wink

So scan next Friday- you just know I'll start bleeding next week and can't have the blinking scan?!?!
Hurry up AF

raddersmrs · 20/05/2016 07:19

Would be due tomorrow On 28 day cycle so near enough really. Today is day 14 of lp so if comes today it's bang on.

I will be going the toilet a lot today to check!

Jem - I've been reading and ICs can be pretty unsensitive so if you don't have any other AF signs I would use a FRER to be sure. If i didn't have temp drop and cramps I would be using it.

Jodders it's like you know me! BFN, but obvs what did I expect 7 days after AF started!

CD 7. Only thing I can think of that was causing thw twinges could be the EPO. I ran out and new order has not arrived yet so will see if that changes the pinching and poking feeling today. Last three cycles I oved between CD 16 and 23, so no way is this ov! I spose I could OPk this evening to find out for sure!

Morning everybody
Have such bad cramps but not AF. they're usually only this bad once she is here. Checked with finger and not even any sign on that still a bit of mucus. Maybe it's because I've been lying down its not made its way down yet.
She's obviously coming so wish she would just hurry up.

IC snowy white again this morning on FMU.

Jem how's your IC this morning??

Footprints - glad you've found the smelly wee culprit!

I will feel so much better once she is here as the wait is over and can move on with next cycle already.

Hope everyone is feeling ok today x

Jodders · 19/05/2016 23:12

OMG I take the wheat grass too GrinGrin and remember I had the strange smelling wee haha!!!

Footprints1 · 19/05/2016 22:59

Physic, what day do u usually ovulate? Do u think you may be ovulating a bit earlier? Strange for u to get cramps now is it? Or could it be the supplements?

Footprints1 · 19/05/2016 22:57

Mystery solved..

The vegetable smelling wee was the wheatgrass supplement. I forgot to take it yesterday and today wee smelt normal. Not a bad thing.. Glad nothing serious. Ha ha

Footprints1 · 19/05/2016 22:54

Hang in there girls.. Tomorrow's another day.
I was convinced AF was coming today but nothing?? Grrr boobs super sensitive still. Cramps disappeared tonight. Weird..

I don't think I was that bad this month with the bfn last week as I've kind of given up this month with this crazy cycle. Just want to start afresh..

So tomorrow we could be seeing some BFP's?!?!?! We need some graduates tomorrow! Until AF comes don't give up. The temp drop thing radders, don't look too much into as mine has been up and down and still no AF. Hope u sleep ok ladies hot choc for you all with a marshmallow on top to help the little beans stick X

Nim- well done for ironing so late in evening!! Impressive. Hope you are ok X

raddersmrs · 19/05/2016 22:19

The cramps have started ... Think I will wake up to AF in the morning

Night everybody

Nimisha · 19/05/2016 22:12

CD 19 4dpo Star

Just checking in. Fingers crossed for Radders, tee and Jem. It's soon time to get shagging physics and Mimi (glad your Dh said sorry) Good news on the scan footprints.

I'm thinking of a bugaboo chameleon. Had a Phil and Ted's for the two which was great but now want something new. Can't afford it but I can fantasise.

Waves to purple, parney and Jod. Sorry if I missed anyone. I've been ironing and now to bed.

Jodders · 19/05/2016 22:08

Kate did you test again by any chance?

I'm really serious eye of the tiger theme tune playing in my head you guys are not out! Remain positive!

physicskate · 19/05/2016 21:43

CD 6

I'm all cramps and twinges over here!! Super uncomfortable, almost bloated?? I had a super light AF too - one medium day, one light and then two spotting. It's been light since copper coil came out. Should that be a worry? Too many worries.

Had a crap day - parents blaming me for working my guts out for their little darlings and the darlings can't be bothered!

raddersmrs · 19/05/2016 21:29

I'm just realistic that's all Smile

All the facts are in front of me really so i know what's coming.

I've got a little bit of hope still ... I think we all do until AF actually shows itself x

Tee4me · 19/05/2016 21:26

Ha! Yes you tell us Jodders!! It's so funny how we are all so pessimistic about our own chances and so optimistic about everybody else's! Self preservation I guess Hmm

SuchaJem · 19/05/2016 21:09

Lol jodders! Put us straight Smile we are not out yet! You are right.

Jodders · 19/05/2016 20:59

You guys are all talking as if you are out! None of you are out yet!!!!

Tee4me · 19/05/2016 20:54

Agree Jem! I'm holding up well now but reckon I'll be a mess once AF shows up!

OP posts:
SuchaJem · 19/05/2016 20:37

We're allowed a day or two of tears and wallowing I reckon then back heads held high for next cycle action girls xx

Tee4me · 19/05/2016 20:33

Radders ignorance is bliss, my temp is probably through the floor, feel better not to know. When AF comes at least it'll already be CD1.
Weirdly, other than the dread of imminent AF, I feel fairly emotionless today. Watching one born now, not even a lump in my throat which is so odd. Usually I'm gone every time there's a birth! Ovia tells me hormones stay elevated if preggo, so I'm thinking its a good thing to feel emotional! I remember feeling fairly stable and cheerful at this point last cycle. Oh well!

OP posts:
raddersmrs · 19/05/2016 20:18

I now how you feel. I had a massive cry With OH this morning and then kept welling up at work today at my desk. It's so tough...
But we have to be strong and live in hope!
You're not out yet anyway :)
I only know AF is coming because of the temp drop. If I didn't have that I would still be thinking there's a chance

SuchaJem · 19/05/2016 20:10

I'm saving the frer too radders. Will only use if I get a hint of something on an IC. Did another one this evening but was met with the bright white glare Sad

So I had a glass of red wine.

Not really getting any cramps. Thought I had a few twinges earlier but maybe because I'm looking? They usually come on at night / early hours of the morning - I'm expecting it tonight.

Really sad about it tonight. Watched One Born and cried and cried.

raddersmrs · 19/05/2016 20:07

Footprints great news about the scan - looking forward to seeing what they say and be chuffed if there turns out to be a bean In there!

raddersmrs · 19/05/2016 20:05

Evening everybody

Jem I did an ic too today and snowy white just as I expected. I'm 13dpo too. I thought it would've shown by now but maybe people are right, they're prob cheap for a reason even though I bought sensitive ones. Don't lose hope. There's still time especially if you're not feeling any cramps. Have you tried another ic?

I've had lots of creamy CM today so it gave me a bit of hope but it's false hope.
I can feel cramps now too so think AF is coming although I've had these cramps few days ago too.
Will do ic tomorrow morning on FMU if AF hasn't got me already. I'm saving the FRER.

Mimi really glad you've sorted it with H ... Or getting there anyway.
