Anyone else waiting to test?

Amazing!!!! Congratulations @BeeKeeping that's fantastic news!!!! Happy and healthy pregnancy to you.

I'm 5 days late and still bfn- someone stole af!

I know this thread has been quiet for a while but just wanted to update you.... BFP! So excited!

Haha oh god @NoseringGirl I don't want to smell weird or end up a cough syrup addict 🙈😂

The things we do and our babies will never know how crazy we got just so they could be here.

I STILL have AF the bitch will just not FO!! Aaarrrrgggghhhh

I actually went to the go today to ask to get bloods done as my opks, temps, cycles and AF are all over the place sigh

Never mind, my lucky DH will just need to put up with dtd every other day all month just in case 😂.

Bought some preseed this month and was reading that robutisin cough syrup can help with cm - any other weird and wacky things going on n your households this month?

Hi ladies, 6dpo here. Holding out to test til 10dpo at least. Last pregnancy got my bfp at 10dpo so thought that's worth a try.

@Melbabes6 I can't see anything but it's still early so fx it changes to positive for you.

@Doglady28 and @mumontherunnn sorry you're out this month.

@BeeKeeping fair play to your friend for being chilled out enough not to track for 4 years! Most people I know go nuts within about 3 cycles. Hope ivf goes well for her.

Hi all, didn't need the FRER as AF turned up. I'm ok with that thoigh ad I can now start to track my cycle properly. Hope you are all well. Let's see what July/August
brings xxx

I think the one step measure HcG that’s 10 miu or above and the FRER are 6.3.. so definitely more sensitive. I can’t see anything on that picture but I am squinting in the sunshine! Fingers crossed for you 🤞🐝x

Can't decide if there's a faint line or not 9dpo

How does a frer compare to one step!?

@Doglady28 how did you get on with frer?
Crossing myfingers for you.

I'm Defo out now

AF due tomorrow, I know the witch is on her way, I have consumed my body weight in chocolate today and felt like ripping everyone's head off .

So I have been trying to convince myself that a summer baby is the way to go so that should hopefully keep me sane for a while 🙈.

Why would you NOT temp? I find that a bit weird, unless you have clockwork cycles or crack ovulation you would think you would either be dtd every single day (sod that!) or get your timing right by tracking O

Yup @Doglady28 I would go for a frer too, just to be sure.

@Doglady28 I would say get a FRER to put your mind at ease, they are much better than the ICs.

Hey everyone. So im now 6 days late and no BFP but I've only been using IC
Should I get a FRER or should I accept that it's negative? Just want AF to arrive!!!

I wonder if the difference is being on mumsnet? Makes tracking seem much more mainstream? Although if you were undergoing tests for fertility and asking about IVF you would think the dr would want to know that you’ve tried everything first?! Crazy.

I popped into my local pharmacy to buy a thermometer but think I’ve got the wrong type as it only measures to 1 decimal place. Any recommendations for good ones? Also surprised they didn’t sell mooncups. And stocked up on litres of canisten as my fanny is on fire 😫 which would be a disaster for ttc this month.

@Beekeeping I did SMEP this month and tracked temp and CM and used OPKs - I felt it made me feel more in control of the process and the temping really helps confirm you ovulated. I thought everyone did these things when ttc these days to be honest, nothing extreme about it!

bfn on clearblue digi af 3 days late now

The good news is that @mumontherun @changingagain @prembabymum and @noseringGirl we get to keep each other company next month too. I think that there’s definitely a sense of catharsis when the witch actually arrives and there’s no more wondering. CD1 is much more positive than CD40whatthehellisgoingon?....

I’m going to try a rough version of SMEP next month and start temping. I was saying this to a friend of mine who has been ttc for almost 4 years and is now on the waiting list for IVF. She was SHOCKED that I would do something as dramatic as taking my temperature every day and timing sex. I was shocked that she’d rather have IVF than timed sex?! Couldn’t really say that to her though... but venting here...

Hope you all have a great weekend 🐝x

I'm out . Tested this morning, even though I promised I wouldn't but I caved.

I should be relieved as we have a big family event next week and trying to cover not drinking would have been a nightmare but I'm not, I'm sad.

I would love a summer baby so I know I should be holding off but I just have this crazy obsession and all rational thought has left the building.

Ah well it will be August before we have another shot as DH is away with work next month at that time. Fingers crossed for August

Xxx

Aahhhh! Getting fed up now. Still no period today and another BFN. Don’t know what to think. Is it likely that I have a ridiculously long luteal phase? I’m on 15dpo.. or that I maybe didn’t ovulate? Or not when I got my peak OPK. I was tracking the week of the 3rd seeing it get gradually more positive and then definite peak on the 6th (with all the other signs ewcm, high soft cervix etc) it trailed off again after that and I assumed that i had ovulated on the 7th. What the actual fuck! 😖 🐝x
