I think everyone is just going a bit mad Lissie! It is torture, one day you're up then you're down... it is only my first month TTC (got PG first month last time but wasn't bothered about getting PG straight away then!) and I think I am going to have to do something different next month (try not to think about it) if we are not PG this month!

lissielou · 25/05/2007 11:59

hello, im back on my 2ww. really think we may have done it this month tho. just a gut feeling. am on cd21 and 5dpo..... hmm, may be wishful thinking. have been away for a week, so what've i missed?

hi everybody, well i am having the strangest cycle ever, had brown spotting for 5 days (really light) around cd30, bfn but then got an evap mark on a predictor test (it says the result is permanant so don't know wot thats about) tested again definate bfn, this month over i thought.

Then for some reason on tuesday i got the urge to use my last clearblue digital opk and got a positive (cd40), so bd like mad and felt more optimistic. Got up this mo and got spotting again but this time slightly redder, maybe af but i've got np cramps or anything

I mean this is far to early to be implantation bleeding isn't it? help!!!!

AskABusyPerson · 25/05/2007 00:07

Ho hum, here we go again! Only my second 2WW, hope I get a bfp soon as the 2ww is agonising! I'm cd19 after weekend away with dh at just the right time in cycle used cheapie ov tests just to make sure but were all neg except one v pale line cd15...but going by ewcm we got right time! Just a waiting game now.....hope everyone else bearing up to the pressure of the wait!

beansprout · 24/05/2007 21:59

Mum03 - I am in the same boat! CD 28, no symptoms but very twitchy and going slightly mad. This really is a form of torture.

mum03 · 24/05/2007 21:59

Supersigningmum - hope that the af is missing for a good reason...

mum03 · 24/05/2007 21:58

Sorry need to come and moan a bit, af due in two days and already I am feeling negative about it. Decided this morning that my boobs were not as sore and that was a sure sign that I am not pg.... why do we torment ourselves with symptom spotting? Arrgggg.

nh101 · 24/05/2007 12:30

I don't think so because I really don't feel very optimistic for this cycle now, I don't think I am PG so I don't want to get a BFN tomorrow when it might not even be accurate.

supersigningmum · 24/05/2007 09:47

Hi everyone

15DPO here. Another BFN yesterday but no sign of AF. Have never had 15 day luteal phase before so have no idea what's going on. Temps still high.

How's everyone else? Testing tomorrow Nh101?

nh101 · 23/05/2007 10:14

Hi 1wish and beansprout - of course you can join us neurotic 2weekwaiters

Try the TTC table thread too...

here

1Wish · 22/05/2007 20:07

Hi can i join too, i'm cd40! had a on my clearblue digital opk today, but as im on cd40 so not holding out much hope

beansprout · 22/05/2007 18:19

Can I join in? Am on CD26 following a chemical pregnancy last month. Am finding these last few days a bit difficult!!

pussycatmomma · 22/05/2007 16:43

Genidef - cd is Cycle day.
nh101 - I haven't tested yet, I hate getting the bfns so much One day I know luck will have to be on my side and I'll get a bfp, but I would have to be pretty certain in my mind to do one these days.
Because of the clomid my cycles were supposed to be getting shorter, but if this turns into a long stretch, it could mean it isnt working as successfully as it is supposed to. Theres always something to worry about isnt there!!! Also, as I am not sure if I am ovulating yet, it is impossible to say how many days post ovulation I am - again, frustrating in the extreme!!
So I shall just be a very patient lady, and try and wait for af, or some serious prg signs instead!!!
xxxxxx Good luck everyone

Genidef · 22/05/2007 16:30

What does CD then a number mean?

I'm so stupid - I went to Boots and bought test for £11 - and used it!!! And did feel peeved when it was BFN. It wasn't even the right time to test yet - I was pushing it with the days.

I am a test junkie! PLEASE LADIES KEEP ME OUT OF BOOTS! I need strategies to stay away.

Had an ectopic in Dec and it's going to take a while I fear. How am I going to pace myself?!

nh101 · 22/05/2007 10:36

Are you testing pussycatmama? I had BFN this morning but knew it would be (CD27/8dpo). Roll on Friday when may just get BFP!

mum03 · 22/05/2007 09:15

Goingfor3 - thank you for your support, hope all is going well for you.

goingfor3 · 22/05/2007 08:29

mum03 just wanted to say that I have my fingers crossed really tightly for you! Good luck for everyoone else too!

pussycatmomma · 21/05/2007 21:36

hiya everyone, just wanted to wave, say hi, and say "im still bloody waiting for af!!"
cd33 today.
xx

supersigningmum · 21/05/2007 15:15

Hi everyone - another BFN this afternoon. So feel about that but hey there's a couple more days to go and plenty more money to be thrown at Clearblue! Realised that last time got BFP on 12DPO it was twins so maybe, fingers crossed, it's only one this time, and that accounts for the tardiness in my HCG! Am knackered, nauseous, constipated and super hot (for me anyway) with temp of 36.8 this morning (up again from yesterday) so if not pg then this is a damn fine phantom pregnancy!

Hang in there everyone else. Back soon!

nh101 · 21/05/2007 10:22

Hi Genidef - course you can wait with us!

Supersigningmum - result?

I didn't test yesterday because I felt terrible (hungover ) after my birthday party on Saturday. I am only 7dpo now anyway I think so I am going to try not to test until Friday at least (even though I know even then I might not get a positive result). I am CD26 at the mo but think my cycle is 34-ish days so AF should be due early next week.

I am also going through feelings of I'm going to be OK if not PG this time, to don't know how I will cope if I am not.

Fingers crossed ladies!!!

mum03 · 21/05/2007 06:59

nh101 - did you test yesterday ?

Genidef - hi!

supersigningmum - did you test this morning?

I am only on 7dpo, but still switching between being extra hopeful and totally doom and gloom about this month. Still another few days and I will have the answer.

pussycatmumma- any news?

Plummy - I missed out on saying congratulations to you. great news.

Genidef · 20/05/2007 12:51

Can I join? I'm kind of waiting (although not convinced about this month). If fails, am going for HSG next month. But you never know!

supersigningmum · 20/05/2007 12:30

Thanks for info about pg tests - will have a look. Am hanging in there at 11DPO and have not repeated shameful behaviour of other day though was mightily tempted to escape watchful eye of DH yesterday and hit the ladies loo at Boots with a secret stash of tests! Luckily the weather here was great so we ended up going out for the day and by time got back the opportunity for stealth visits to the chemist had passed. Temp is still sky high and having occasional AF like cramps - thing is I never usually get those till AF actually arrives so fingers crossed there is indeed some activity down below. Last time I got pg I think I tested positive on 12 DPO so maybe tomorrow would be a good day ... How are you others doing?

nh101 · 18/05/2007 17:43

Sorry got that completely wrong they are not £4 for 20 I was looking at the wrong bit. Look for professional pregnancy tests - they are £5.40 for 25 or £12.99 for 50

nh101 · 18/05/2007 17:39

Did that work?

www.accessdiagnostictests.co.uk/

They are £4 for 20, they are not the exact same ones I have but they are similar. You put a cardboard stick in a cup and leave it for five mins

Worked alright for me when I got my BFP in Jan (got one BFN the week before that) so I've only used two so far.

Pretty easy to use tho
