Duh, just reread and see your testing tomorrow. Blush

minime2016 · 29/12/2016 09:27

Morning! Still nothing here and now 5 days late-what's going on?!? Saving my pee in case postie brings tests this morning-I need to know now. I'm not googling or symptom spotting at all-discounting the fact I'm tired, hungry, windyBlushand bloated all the time. Sure that could be due to Christmas. Prepared for a bfn. When are you going to test lovechild?

Lovechild2016 · 29/12/2016 08:45

Aww sorry mummy that's really upsetting! I nearly did the same last week. If it was more than a squinter though remember OPK can pick up hcg, could try and squeeze one out (a little wee that is!) in about half an hour, you only need a few drops? Still no AF for me and cramps have stopped but feel very bloated... if I get to tomorrow without a visit I'll go and POAS. How are you minime?

Mummyme87 · 29/12/2016 06:30

Omg I'm so upset. I am 10dpo today and thought I would test... I got a squinter then developed a bit more. Was so excited then picked the packet up and realised it was an OPK 😫 I got the test out in the dark from my drawer and the boxes are the same shape and size. And I had disposed of my first morning wee by then.

On another note I am having some light abdo discomfort this morning

Lovechild2016 · 28/12/2016 14:11

Thanks minime I really hope we are both in for a BFP, i totally agree about not wanting to burst the hope bubble!!!

minime2016 · 28/12/2016 14:04

I've also had bad af cramps lovechild-bad few days before af was due, properly af like but nothing has ever come of it. Don't want to test to burst the hope bubble!

minime2016 · 28/12/2016 14:03

Fingers crossed lovechild!

Lovechild2016 · 28/12/2016 13:28

No AF yet.... hoping for a good reason. Those who have had BFP did anyone get bad cramps before? Yesterday for about an hour i had really strong cramps that made me feel dizzy. No further cramps but still feel very bloated and like AF coming but still have very clear damp CM (sorry for TMI). I've run out of hpt and i'm at my parents with no local shops or a car! I know i just need to be patient and time will tell but I am just anxious to know! Sympathy for others in my situation i know there are several anxious people out there!

Mummyme87 · 28/12/2016 11:14

9DPO today. No symptoms for last two days the few days before that I had pelvic pain/discomfort but all gone now. Was feeling positive not so much now though. Good luck to everyone else this week

Kskifred · 28/12/2016 10:12

Sorry af has captured some of you, fx for those still on the bus.

I'm 6dpo and although i'm technically on the front of the jan bus when she pulls in, i'm secretly hoping i might get a last minute seat on the Dec bus if i test a bit early, wishful thinking i expect though but pma and all that!

Woke up with a rotten cold and cramps all last night but think my cold is lurgy based as it's going around.

minime2016 · 28/12/2016 09:09

Still holding my seat on the bus. Woke feeling like af had arrived but nothing. Leg cramps and sore back so she may appear later. Now 4 days late. My IC are on their way-I'm wondering which will appear first, my tests or af? Deep down I'm reluctant to test and would be so gutted to see a BFN.

Hippychic79 · 28/12/2016 08:46

FlowersFlowersFlowers for you Claire and Missmagpie xxxxxx

MissMagpie · 28/12/2016 08:31

I woke up with very much like AF cramps and just wiped some pink on toilet paper so I think she is here. Late but here, damn her.

Lovechild2016 · 28/12/2016 00:42

Sorry for long cycle claire so stressful, hoping it was a late ovulation and a BFP coming your way soon. Those who are late eeek! Hoping some BFPs will appear. I've had cramps all day expecting AF tomorrow and to be honest the amount of wine I've consumed in the last few days maybe it's for the best (although it hasn't stopped me googling: AF cramps before BF- a million times or secretly hoping)

88claire · 27/12/2016 23:55

BFN for today... Day 43 (44 in 5 mins) and no sign of AF.... Confused

Sort of wish it would just come now so I can start trying next cycle!

powerpuffer · 27/12/2016 22:30

I have such sore nips but not much else right now. Going to try and hold out til Friday to test but I doubt I will... I'm a POAS addict.

MissMagpie · 27/12/2016 20:49

So after my Christmas Eve of feeling like AF was about to arrive, she still hasn't. Have had some bad cramps and my boobs are extremely heavy but not even had any spotting. CD33 today and according to Ovia I should test today but I am now abroad and don't have a test with me. May go and get one if I get to CD37 without AF as that was my longest cycle this year.

Lovechild2016 · 27/12/2016 18:23

You are so patient minime hope it pays off fx

minime2016 · 27/12/2016 16:50

3 days late, no cramping, occasionally sore boobs. Confused and have now told DH I'm late. Fully expected af to arrive as I've mentioned it to him but nope. I'm waiting for my ic to test again. Sod's law would see me spending £10 on tests and af to kick off before I got to use them. Being v patient (unlike me) and putting lateness down to the hormones being out of whack due to excess sugar intake CakeChocolateXmas Smile

Emmaw88 · 27/12/2016 15:21

Sorry to all you ladies who have got AF, 2017 will be our year girls!

Current cd20 a few tummy cramps so far but that's all. Any one else have amy symptoms?

Good luck everyone

Lovechild2016 · 27/12/2016 15:02

BFN for me since my possible clear blue squinter that was probably my imagination. Getting AF cramps right on cue for her arrival tomorrow so think I am out. Fingers
Crossed minime and all those others still on the bus! Xxx

minime2016 · 26/12/2016 23:48

Been with the inlaws all day so no testing but I've ordered more opk and hpts online which are due to arrive on Friday. Might wait til then to see what develops. If Avis still MIA then I'll be POAS. Getting twinges on either side of my pelvis, no more cramps, just a bubbly tummy which i think is more festive feeding related Xmas Grin

Usernamegone · 26/12/2016 21:36

Fx mini you get a BFP. Could you nip out and get a non-digi test (as I don't think digi's are very sensitive)?

Hippychic79 · 26/12/2016 19:21

Fx for all ladies xxxx

Kskifred · 26/12/2016 19:20

4dpo according to FF, more relaxed than last month due to xmas and hoping i can hold out testing for another week, we will see
