Love to you all xxx

cupcakesandglitter · 24/08/2018 12:11

Thankyou @ttcat32 💕 x

cupcakesandglitter · 24/08/2018 12:11

@sunshine1987 I'm not sure because I had ovulation pains and EWCM this month 😩 but then, I'm pretty sure AF is here. It's not as heavy at all, but it's all like (sorry for tmi) bright red blood, and I've got some light cramping. My body is just all over the place 😩

ttcat32 · 24/08/2018 12:08

@FlapJackered absolutely! Also getting rid of test would help with space in suitcase 😊

@cupcakesandglitter ☹️ sending you lots of virtual hugs and 🍷🍷🍷 x

sunshine1987 · 24/08/2018 11:38

@cupcakesandglitter could it be you had an anovulatory cycle? Where your body geared up to ovulate and it didn't happen which means you don't have a period. Apparently quite common x

FlapJackered · 24/08/2018 10:57

@ttcat32 😂😂😂 ok well if you insist! It would be a shame for the test to have made a wasted trip after all!
I have taken it on holiday though, the least it could do is give me a bfp. 😂

@ttcat32 thankyou, but I think AF has come in full force. I'm gonna have a nice drink tonight and try not to think about it - I'm ready for next month. I'm more disappointed that my cycles are now messed up again, but hopefully this is just a blip xx

ttcat32 · 24/08/2018 10:21

@cupcakesandglitter stay positive! If AF not in full flow yet then you are still in with a shot. Please don't stress, much easier said than done I know, but I'm trying to come from a place of what will be will be with the whole ttc journey. You've done everything you can do if it's not meant to be this month then it's out-with your control and if it is meant to be then it will take a lot more than some cramps and spotting to shake that sticky little bean! ❤️

@FlapJackered do it tomorrow!!!! Think of poor test, has flown all the way over there with you and has been patiently waiting to fulfil its peed on destiny! Put it out of its misery and use it in the morning! Even if negative it will be discarded in the rubbish bin and laid to rest in nice place! 😂😂😂 also gives you time to Amazon prime some other ones to home/ pick up another in airport if needed 🤞

cupcakesandglitter · 24/08/2018 09:41

@ProseccoBee hopefully it was just a blip, and you'll have a normal cycle this month. Our bodies really do play all the tricks on us when we're TTC! Fx

ProseccoBee · 24/08/2018 09:39

@cupcakesandglitter yes cycles always regular at 34 days so this is just a one off. Have been off the pill for over a year now aswell so it’s not like I can blame it on that either.

FlapJackered · 24/08/2018 09:39

@purplestar9 - yes AF due on Sunday. So tempted to test tomorrow 😬

@ttcat32 😂 I am so tempted but I only have one test here with me on holiday. We leave to come home early tomorrow so just not sure whether to test or wait.....Who am I kidding I will probably be testing tomorrow!😂 I will just have to drown my sorrows on the plane home when it is a bfn.

@ProseccoBee - poor you that sounds horrendous! I have had a 56 day cycle so I feel your pain. What cd are you on now?

OP posts:
cupcakesandglitter · 24/08/2018 09:27

Spoke to soon - browny CM (like the kind I get at the end of AF) just now, only when I wiped. Who knows what's going on 🤷🏻‍♀️

cupcakesandglitter · 24/08/2018 09:21

Morning girls 🌸

Thankyou @ttcat32 @FlapJackered I'm a lot better this morning. Zero bleeding since (it's actually like it never even happened, I at least expected some spotting) and thank god the cramps have gone. Seems like today is going to be a lot better - in staying positive either way x

@ProseccoBee Are your cycles normally regular etc? Was this a one off? X

How is everyone?

ProseccoBee · 24/08/2018 09:13

Morning everyone! Just got back from my holidays and gosh can’t believe how quickly this thread has moved! Been trying to catch up this morning with a cuppa. So many highs and lows happened! I’ve had a bit of a time myself, before I went away I was overdue Af and took four tests all negative so had convinced myself defo not pregnant then when I got there had a few glasses of fizz and as the days went on still no sign and was feeling so guilty in case it had just been to early and I was actually pregnant and had been drinking! Each torcherous day went by and it ended up being cd 58!!! When AF arrived. Don’t know how the hell that happened never ever ever had a cycle that long before! Had really started to convince myself that I may have been pregnant and then boom not! Then I convinced myself it was a chemical pregnancy and now I don’t know what to think! Sucks the whole ttc! Honestly think our bodies play tricks on us!

ttcat32 · 24/08/2018 08:56

@FlapJackered would like to hold off till Monday will definitely test Sunday 😂 have zero symptoms so very unlikely but at least it will give me something to pee on 🤷‍♀️

Admiring your restraint at 10dpo! It's so hard not to read into everything! AF not due till Wednesday for me so thinking even Sunday will be early

🤞 for you! Xx

purplestar9 · 24/08/2018 08:54

@FlapJackered did you say AF is due on Sunday?

ValidUser · 24/08/2018 08:47

Thanks @ttcat32. If it is it's probably a good thing because my LP is on the short side.

@Delilah7 I'm good but still late and still testing negative. Day 31 of a 27 day cycle. 13-14 dpo.

My concern now is if I am pregnant could I have implanted late? Apparently this can affect the viability of a pregnancy. Le sigh!

FlapJackered · 24/08/2018 08:31

@ttcat32 @purplestar9 I think I will test on sunday but may buckle and test tomorrow.

Feeling very sick which could be because of a very different diet on holiday, or could just be af symptoms just a bit worse, but of course I am reading into it! 🙄

@ttcat32 when do you think you will test?

OP posts:
ttcat32 · 24/08/2018 08:20

Morning ladies 😊

Haven't been on for a few days so been trying to catch up this morning....

How are you all?

@cupcakesandglitter are you doing ok this morning?

@FlapJackered Have you decided when you are going to test?

@ValidUser not sure if anyone has mentioned this but I saw a couple of people on other threads mentioning that they thought the pregnacare vitamins had lengthened their cycle

9dpo this morning, I swear this 2ww is dragging in! X

MrsR16 · 24/08/2018 07:27

@Crossfitgirl to be honest, I haven't noticed any difference at all! I'm now about 5DPO so still a little while to wait before I'll start testing

Delilah7 · 24/08/2018 07:19

@ValidUser strange. Tummy is defo weird but I'm just gonna say that I think AF will be coming at some point. You ok? X

@Crossfitgirl just shit I wanna know whether AFs coming or what. Im never irregular so it's going to do my head in. No cramps as of yet for period though!

purplestar9 · 24/08/2018 07:17

@Crossfitgirl I can't remember my cycles before the pill, i was on the pill for about 11 years but I do think I was regular 28 days which is why I wasn't expecting to have longer cycles when I came off!

@FlapJackered based on when I think I ovulated, I believe AF is due on tuesday so if it's a no show I'll test Wednesday I think. How about you?

FlapJackered · 24/08/2018 07:10

@cupcakesandglitter - sorry lovely 💐 although funny it has stopped? May you're not out after all yet? 🤞🏻

@daisiesandpeonies - thanks lovely, I will look into mindfulness exercises. How are you doing, what cd are you?

Gah @ValidUser I feel your pain! Hope you're keeping sane.

@purplestar9 when is af due for you? - when do you think you will test?

I am 10dpo today. Achey boobs and nausea but that is not unusual for me before af.

OP posts:
cupcakesandglitter · 23/08/2018 23:39

@Crossfitgirl thankyou 💕 my bleeding has stopped but I'm still having cramps and I'm also very gassy. Maybe AF will come in full force tomorrow 🤷🏻‍♀️ I have work tomorrow so no wine for me, tomorrow night however...

Crossfitgirl · 23/08/2018 23:36

@validuser I too am displeased on your behalf! It's like torture!!
