78th day of no period....

As the title suggests, I haven't had a period since the 18th October. I came off cerazette at the start of June and have had irregular cycles since but this is by far the longest.

DH and I are TTC and I last took a pregnancy test at the start of December so I'm fairly confident I'm not pregnant (we were both sick after that and didn't have any inclination to DTD).

We finally DTD on 26th and 27th December and yesterday I had really sore breasts and some cramps and EWCM in the morning for the first time in a long time, but we only managed to DTD late last night. Im mildly cramping this morning and have watery CM. These long cycles are so confusing! Is there a chance we might've caught ovulation this month? How long should I wait before testing?

I know MumsNet is meant to be anonymous but I wish I knew all of you, you all sound lovely x

@lifeofriley that’s exciting. Fx for you!

Tink I also stopped the starflower oil when af arrived- not sure the impact it may have so opting for nature to do its thing. I’ve been doing opks around 6-8 each evening. Today is darker than yesterday but I heated they are still negative if they aren’t dark lines?

I also love that we have all got each other to talk to. DP definitely would not talk about all this ha.

LifeOfRiley63 · 12/02/2018 17:41

Okay, so I'm trying not to get mega excited but...today I have been super dizzy (nauseous not ditzy), lightheaded, boob ache still continuing, sense of smell still really strong, my stomach feels bloated (my tights are tight!) and tender, and to top it all off, I checked Cm and it was reaaally milky white (mines usually a bit yellow, sorry, TMI!) which Dr Google says is a sign of pregnancy!!
Trying so so hard not to get my hopes up, trying to prepare for a BFN tomorrow morning.

Sorry about AF @Karigan1 xxx

SpadesOfGlory · 12/02/2018 16:25

Aww, sorry Karigan. I reckon I'm out this month too tbh. 9dpo and no symptoms at all...had been very dry down there since ov and have just started getting a bit more CM again but no sore boobs or any other symptoms.

Ahhh there we go there’s AF. Straight from nothing to omg my insides just fell out lol.

Tinker315b · 12/02/2018 14:09

Wonder should I stop taking it? Its soo hard to know what to do isn't it lol. Yes ive been taking seven seas since October! xx

gossipgirl28 · 12/02/2018 14:01

@Tinker315b I ordered 1000mg from amazon as I read up and it was recommended to regulate AF. I haven't actually taken any since I got it as I then read it can mess up AF if you are regular. I'm just taking omega 3 and 7 seas pre-conception tablets
Xoxo

Tinker315b · 12/02/2018 13:21

@gossipgirl28 What mg of agnus castus are you taking? Fingers crossed for you that you get your BFP soon! Yes I think its just the not knowing that sends you mad lol xx

gossipgirl28 · 12/02/2018 12:54

@Karigan1

Yes I used OPKs from CD10. I got faint lines early on CD13, morning of CD14 and then a strong positive OPK at 10pm on CD14. Did another OPK at 6am on CD15 and it was positive. By midday on CD15 my OPKs were negative. Had I not done 3 OPKs per day I would have missed my surge.

I've gone all out though 😚 I've got the ovia app and glow app. I've been using fertility lube and tried tracking my temperature.

In December I did have a 'relaxed and il see how things go' attitude. 2 months later and getting pregnant is all I think about
Xoxo

Karigan1 · 12/02/2018 12:17

Ohhh gossip girl have you been using opks. Crossing fingers for you :)

gossipgirl28 · 12/02/2018 12:16

@Tinker315b
I got my AF on day 44 off the mini pill cerelle (very similar o cerazette)
Really hope it won't be too much longer for you! It's so frustrating isn't it.
I ordered extra strength agnus cactus online on day 43 and typical I get my AF back on day 44!
I'm on CD19 of my first official cycle trying to conceive- just hope I now have a regular cycle! Xoxo

Tinker315b · 12/02/2018 12:13

Thank you soo much for the reassurance, really glad I found this chat, glad to have you ladies to talk too! I really appreciate it xx

Karigan1 · 12/02/2018 11:58

I had at least a couple of weeks of that kind of stuff before it happened. I bet it won’t be long!

Tinker315b · 12/02/2018 11:51

@Karigan1 Good for you thinking on the positives, wish I had those thoughts!

See I had cramps, bloating and tender boobs all of last week and thought happy days this is it and frigging still nothing yet. But as you say those symptoms may be my body slowy starting to kick start. xx

Karigan1 · 12/02/2018 11:28

Have to say I have the same worries but with probably more grounds as I’m 40 lol x

Karigan1 · 12/02/2018 11:27

I feel absolutely fine lol. I reckon there’s going to be a chainsaw massacre today ;) which is good news as means I didn’t ovulate too early and don’t have a short luteal phase (thinking of positives).

I don’t really get pms cramps etc so the first sign of actual AF was boobs no longer sore and spotting. In the weeks running up though it was awful with bloating, cramps huge sore boobs. I think it’s just the hormones gettingback on line so things like that are good signs. :)

Tinker315b · 12/02/2018 11:23

Thank you @Karigan1 I Hope im lucky, its just on your mind 24/7 and im just soo worried that my body wont work and I wont be able to have children! I know I keep saying it but NEVER EVER again will I take another pill of any brand!! Did you have any symptoms before AF arrived?

How are you feeling today? xx

Karigan1 · 12/02/2018 11:15

Hey Tink, it was round day 50 my system got going again. It won’t be much longer

Tinker315b · 12/02/2018 10:03

Hi Ladies,

so I was at the doctors today. I have to now wait until the end of March which will be 3 months and if still no AF then I have to go for a gyne examination and blood tests.

The doctor said that if I wasn't haven't periods whilst on Cerazette then I haven't been ovulating and she said this can take hormones longer to balance out when stopping, I asked if there was anything I can take and she said they can prescribe a pill to bring your period along but they wont do that until 3 months as it can mess up your body more. Today is day 43 for me which is nothing in comparison to others but I just don't think I can wait until the end of March. I am at my wits end and just feeling soo down now Sad

Karigan1 · 12/02/2018 09:21

I really don’t think a BFP is possible as keep spotting and boobs no longer sore. If something doesn’t happen by tomorrow I’ll test but that’ll mean I ovulated 72hrs after peak and had a 16 day luteal phase

LifeOfRiley63 · 12/02/2018 08:24

@Karigan1 Have you got any FRERs? xx

Karigan1 · 11/02/2018 23:28

End of the day and still no sodding AF. Just a touch of spotting. WTF is my body playing at this time lol.

LifeOfRiley63 · 11/02/2018 22:04

Preferably the latter Wink Thank you lovelies, really needed some reassurance x

Karigan1 · 11/02/2018 21:49

I’m betting it’s your system gearing up too :).

Fingers crossed for one or the other

Tinker315b · 11/02/2018 21:45

@LifeOfRiley63 Hopefully your system is kick starting again and AF arrives in the next few days, or better still a bfp 😀
