Figured I'd start this up before we completely fill the other without a link.

@LookingAtTheStars89 have you used a frer now that you're late? Maybe it's just your hcg levels are high enough yet for the 25miu test

nk1605 · 12/12/2017 08:19

@Gem173 thanks! Im not letting myself get too excited though in case it turns out to be nothing. I've had mild cramps on and off from 6dpo and sort of like scratchy/tingly feeling at times, like I needed to itch inside haha. And just recently I've started to get sweet smelling CM, and literally feels like I pee myself it can be so wet sometimes! My cervix is very high and soft as well, but I've heard cervical position is not a good indicator as it can change throughout the day so not relying on that too much.

How are you getting on?

LookingAtTheStars89 · 12/12/2017 08:17

Second day of being late. Bfn on co-op 25miu test. Think i might be out :-(

Gem173 · 12/12/2017 07:56

Do you have any symptoms?? @nk1605

Gem173 · 12/12/2017 07:55

I see a very very faint line! @nk1605 oooo so exciting!!

nk1605 · 12/12/2017 07:54

So I tested with frer this morning as AF was due yesterday but still hasn't arrived. I think I'm 11dpo, but after looking back at FF, that was from when I got my positive OPK. So I could still be earlier than 11dpo. Other explanation is my LP is lengthening, as last month it was only 9 days and I'm actually not due AF for another couple of days.

Anywho! Here is a pic of my test. I'm not sure if there is the faintest of faint lines there or if I've just developed lines eyes. If I tilt my phone slightly and squint I was pretty sure I saw something. But all opinions welcome 😊 i would rather accept it's a BFN if that's what it is!

Thanks forever Smile that's what I'm worried about Lost. Trying to just see it as I can't control it so I shouldn't stress about it. Hoping it was implantation bleed and not coil naughtiness for you Impatient!

Gem173 · 12/12/2017 07:44

It is way too cold today, swear we should all be told to stay at home in such cold weather!! 5dpo and nothing to report!! Only have a short luteal phase of 11/12 days so hopefully it’s enough to implant x

LostMyBaubles · 12/12/2017 07:31

Post coil bleeds can last month's
From what the Dr told me
(Sometimes on and off)

Impatient it could be due to the coil coming out that's why your bleeding a little

Foreverretro · 12/12/2017 06:54

@TinySnowBuddy good stuff! Post coil bleeds don’t usually last long so I’ll keep my fx that it goes soon for you! 😊

TinySnowBuddy · 12/12/2017 06:34

Hello, yes, sorry! I'm fine, thanks! Thank you for the concern/advice girls. It seems to have turned a bit more like normal AF now, still heavy but not unmanageable. Really hoping it buzzes off soon and that's my first post coil-period done with, but I know that's asking a lot... hope everyone has a good day!

Foreverretro · 12/12/2017 06:24

BBT has dropped 0.2 degrees this morning so I’m losing hope 😔 still above the line but I don’t imagine it will be for long. Will probably still test on Friday as I’m a glutton for punishment. AF due Sunday.

@TinySnowBuddy I hope you’re alright! Let us know...

ImpatientMammy · 11/12/2017 23:17

@Sodasoda god I know so lucky to have my son but we basically cosleep 🙈 x

ImpatientMammy · 11/12/2017 23:15

@Sodasoda the bleeding appears to have stopped for now I'm 9dpo there actually wasn't much I think I was in shock who knows I've been getting cramps ever since my coil was removed though so it's hard to trust what's going on x

Sodasoda · 11/12/2017 23:01

Thanks for welcomes!

That seems very early for AF impatientmammy if you're not due til Sunday. Do you know when you ovulated? I hope it's not! Fingers crossed for some kind of implantation sign!

It's so frustrating isn't it buzzbee? I know we're so lucky to have one child already but I do envy people who can plan when they actually have kids! I hate the lack of control of if all and how mad I become.... Of course I've got lots of friends who took longer with their first but their second happened straight away so got my hopes up a bit but I can already see it's going to take ages again.

So much harder to find time to DTD with a toddler around too!

Sorry for the moan!

nk1605 · 11/12/2017 20:29

@HannahJH I have a short LP too, at 9-10 days. I have a DD who's nearly 3 now but not sure if my LP was as short back then...I wasnt tracking it. What I started to do this cycle is take 200mg vit C every day. I read it is meant to help, and sure, if it actually does nothing then it will help stave off the winter cold 😊

At this stage I don't know if it's helped, AF was due today. So if I'm not pg, I'm either late or my LP is lengthening. Who knows!

buzzbeebee · 11/12/2017 19:12

@Sodasoda we are in similar boats. Took me nearly 2 years to conceive dd. I'm on 3rd cycle and due to test 27th.

I have just come down with nasty tummy bug which I think may rule me out for this month Xmas Sad

I would have loved my bfp for Christmas.

RandomUsernameHere · 11/12/2017 18:36

@tappitytaptap I stopped BF 2 1/2 years ago when DD and DS (who are twins) were just over a year old. I had a c section too. Not sure what IUGR is though, sorry.
I recently had two sets of bloods done, the gynaecologist had a look at the results last week and didn't think conceiving would be a problem but advised getting more bloods done when I'm ready to TTC properly as it would be difficult to date a pregnancy otherwise. I was lucky enough to conceive the first month of trying last time.

LookingAtTheStars89 · 11/12/2017 18:32

I kind of wish I was spotting or...something! I'm only a day late but it's driving me nuts with my stupid bfn this morning!

HannahJH · 11/12/2017 18:26

Hi!

I hope I’m ok to join in with you ladies? I have a little girl already who is one and just amazing so I’m very lucky however, I’ve had 3 chemical pregnancies in the last 5 months (3 in a row) so I’m a bit worried about what’s going on. My LP was 10 days before I had her and I’m worried it’s now too short to sustain a pregnancy.

Anyone got any experience/advice?

Lots of baby dust to you all!

Thanks in advance xx

ImpatientMammy · 11/12/2017 18:25

Possibly @nk but it really feels like the start of AF. I don't think I got an implantation bleed with my son but fx not feeling hopeful though x

tappitytaptap · 11/12/2017 18:15

@ImpatientMammy got my fingers crossed for you its not AF!

tappitytaptap · 11/12/2017 18:14

@RandomUsernameHere when did you stop BFing and how old was your DC? I didn't have a period til a month after I stopped, a year ago, when he was 8 months. He was still taking loads from me then so that probably makes sense. AF have definitely been different since then. Heavier and shorter I think? I worried it was side effect of EMCS and DS had IUGR so was also concerned about that...GP examined me internally as part of a work medical and said everything felt fine. Gah I bloody hate TTC, I hated it last time too and it wasn't even that long, we conceived DS on cycle 3.

nk1605 · 11/12/2017 18:13

@ImpatientMammy could it be an implantation bleed? Especially if you're not due until Sunday

ImpatientMammy · 11/12/2017 18:08

I think I'm out too I've just started spotting flo isn't due till Sunday preying this isn't it or we will totally miss next months ovulation as oh will be away gutted x
