Hey guys I'm back from camping so just catching up on the thread. .

Congrats to @PGTips83 and sorry to those who got af. Af is on her way out which is good and I'm with you all for September. I'll probably be testing around the 16th.

holzyb20 · 21/08/2017 11:57

I tried for about 2 1/2 - 3 years naturally never used opk's or anything then my oh said it was time to go and see a doctor I was diagnosed with pcos and don't ovulated so that was 3 years wasted 😂 I'm on round two of Clomid now so really hoping!

To be honest TTC is a long and hard journey no matter how long you been trying it takes it's toll on all of us I mean if got used to AF turning up or bfn's I used to get a lot more upset about it when I first started trying x

Chooklass · 21/08/2017 11:50

Ah, sorry Holzy - I didn't realise you'd been TTC that long! Makes my few months seem like nothing. Got fingers even more crossed for you now 😃.

holzyb20 · 21/08/2017 11:46

It definitely is but it's took me a long time to get here this month will be 3 1/2 years so hopefully the Clomid works for me this month. Only thing is iv become very impatient after finding out I ovulated probably best not knowing!

Chooklass · 21/08/2017 11:34

I had bloods done this month too, but too early (because of weekend, and my cycle deciding to get longer all of a sudden!). Doc didn't tell me a number, just that results indicated I probably, but not definitely ovulated. Got to go again next month and will ask for number next time! Must be a weight of your mind knowing you definitely ov'd @Holzy x

UppityStitch · 21/08/2017 11:32

Big Fat Nothing for me too! So I'm bowing out disgracefully from this month's proceedings. Gonna purchase some OPKs to try and get my dates right. Looking forward to see you all on the new thread!

holzyb20 · 21/08/2017 11:28

It's not over until AT shows her nasty face! I'm due tomorrow or possibly Wednesday.... I had my bloods done last week Tuesday they came back at 55 so I definitely ovulated and your meant to have the bloods done 7 days before your period so I'm thinking I should be expecting AF tomorrow?

Chooklass · 21/08/2017 11:24

Fingers crossed @Holzy! I wish I hadn't tested! AF due by Weds for me so still in with a small chance ... maybe!?

intelligentPutty · 21/08/2017 10:39

I'm with you all. Let's keep it going.

holzyb20 · 21/08/2017 10:36

Hi everyone sorry to hear about the bfn's

@putty it could possibly be implantation as you wouldn't get a positive until a couple of days later.

I'm still in with a chance have held off testing, AF due tomorrow or Tuesday don't have any of my usual AF symptoms so really hoping this month is my month!

Chooklass · 21/08/2017 09:38

I'd really like to keep this thread going! I've found this 2WW quite tough and haven't wanted to worry DP (he had close family death last wk), so this has been my only place to vent! Think I'll be testing around 21st Sept, though DP will be away most of FW so sort of already writing off next month. Your move sounds mega stessful @Syd! Good luck!

SydBound27 · 21/08/2017 09:19

Ah @Chooklass and @Putty sorry to hear about the bfns this morning. Fingers crossed we'll be doling out the baby dust next month!

It would be nice to keep this thread going, I've found all you ladies so supportive. Depending on when I ovulate, which is either day 17-19 or 29 (?!!), I'll either be testing on 19th Sep or 26th Sep. Who's with me?

I'm about to move to the other side of the world, packing up the house on thursday, so with heightened stress levels I'm not sure this will be our month! we still plan to dtd every other day but let's see

intelligentPutty · 21/08/2017 09:13

Sorry for u too @Chooklass I hope that maybe it's a false negative for you. X

Chooklass · 21/08/2017 08:37

Ah, sorry @Putty. Bright white FRER BFN for me too this morning (12dpo) - bugger! I've been so tired and had odd tight feeling in uterus so kind of got my hopes up over last 2 days. Think all the lucky baby dust on this thread was used up!!

intelligentPutty · 21/08/2017 05:34

Least this'll stop me googling implantation bleeding today!!

Anyone due to test around 18th Aug?
UppityStitch · 20/08/2017 16:51

@Chooklass. I've stopped googling now as it too open to interpretation. Got my hopes up as I had has symptoms and got BFPs really early with DS. Will just wait and see, but I'm expecting the 'worst'. Will test in the morning if I don't see any spotting in the meantime

intelligentPutty · 20/08/2017 15:48

@Chooklass thanks. Yes. Fingers toes legs!!

Chooklass · 20/08/2017 14:46

Fingers crossed it's just spotting @Putty!

intelligentPutty · 20/08/2017 12:50

Think she's here. Little spotting just now when I wiped. Cycle day 28... ;(

Chooklass · 20/08/2017 10:23

@Uppity we really do seem to be cycle twins!! Though it seems night sweats can also be preg symptom (isn't everything, if you Google enough?!), so if you don't usually have that you never know! Totally normal pre-AF for me, unfortunately.

UppityStitch · 20/08/2017 09:32

Same here. Woke up around 3 with night sweats (never noticed them before) and a few sharp cramps. I think AF is imminent! Sad

Chooklass · 20/08/2017 07:38

Got night sweats last night, which I usually get for 2 nights before AF! Boo! Not testing this morning. Good luck anyone who is! Xx

WonderfullySunny · 19/08/2017 18:28

@murree @SydBound27 @Penny31 I'm so sorry AF arrived, wishing you guys plenty of baby dust for September! 🍀

murree · 19/08/2017 16:26

AF arrived this morning for me too Sad
Oh well on wards to next moth... Massive congrats to all the ladies who got their BNP this month, wishing you all a happy and healthy pregnancy!

Penny31 · 19/08/2017 16:23

So af has arrived 6 days late. I had a faulty test it would seem! I don't even think I could have had a chemical since we dtd just 8 days ago. Won't be using that test again!

So ill be trying properly once af is done and dusted. Good luck to those still in the game and see some of you in the next 2ww. X
