So my AF is due today but I'm not really having any major bloating or cramping like I normally do, although that doesn't mean anything I know. I don't have any FRER tests on me so I'm planning to see if AF comes today, if not I'll try and do a test tomorrow. I'm so confused because I had so many out of the ordinary symptoms this time...

pinkstar01 · 02/11/2018 10:07

@Rightnow1245 that is so odd! How many days late are you now? You should try an FRER for sure

Decgal88 · 02/11/2018 09:45

@Rightnow1245 how frustrating hun!! odd you havent had this long a cycle before but stay positive could just take a little longer for BFP to show and be picked up? defo worth going to the drs Smilei hope you get some answers soon!! @wanderlustgirl huge congrats how exciting!!!Grin @Abzi91 welcome back girl 😁 really praying we all get our BFP baby dust all round girlies šŸ’•

I also did and Internet cheepie and think there’s a very very faint line.. but then did a digital one and it came back with no! Don’t know what to think.. I need to get a FRER really šŸ¤”

Hello people, @dosmamas still there, just getting tired easily and a bit crampy. AF not arrived yet. Will test today. Sorry AF arrived. It's a new start again. Baby dust this November.

Huge congrats to @wanderlust girl. I can't wait for this BFPs to be all over us.

Abzi91 · 01/11/2018 22:21

Hi ladies! Catching up as I've not been as active whilst away on training.. Going home tomorrow evening and then back again on Sunday! AF stopped 2 days ago and I'm away the week I ovulate (dates according to Flo) so think I'll have to push till December 😫 haven't even had a chance to look into OPKs!

I hope it's still okay I pop in to the thread to keep up with your journeys as I'm glad to have people I can speak to about this with 😊

@wanderlustgirl huge congratulations! ā¤ļøLine looks very strong!!

@Dosmamas @Rightnow1245 Sorry you both are in such a confusing time at the moment! Hope you get some answers soon as i can imagine it must be frustrating.
Your googling sounds promising, so hope you get your BFP on the 3rd @Rightnow1245 šŸ¤žšŸ½ā¤ļø

Also fingers and toes crossed for everyone else!! ā¤ļø Hope the new month brings positives all round 😊

wanderlustgirl · 01/11/2018 20:22

@Rightnow1245 maybe 14 days but I'm not 100% as my cycle is so far out.

Keeping everything crossed for others! Xx

Rightnow1245 · 01/11/2018 19:47

wanderlustgirl How many DPO are you? Such good news! At least some of us are getting our BFPs

dosmamas sorry to hear about the spotting.. but I know what you mean about being able to move on! I know tell me about it.. I think to be honest I was probably just seeing things 😬 it’s just so strange as this has never happened before.. but guess we can all have an off cycle šŸ¤”

wanderlustgirl · 01/11/2018 19:44

@Dosmamas I woke up with similar feelings as I do when AF is about to arrive. A bit crampy etc.

I've done a pink Morrison's one and it's BFP too. ļæ¼

Dosmamas · 01/11/2018 19:06

Awww good idea, when we get our BFP I think we are going to go through about 30 in one night. When you woke up this morning did you think you were going to be looking at a positive test that afternoon?! How exciting.

wanderlustgirl · 01/11/2018 18:55

I'm going to go buy more tests after dinner.

Praying it sticks and that everyone else gets positive news ā¤ļø

Dosmamas · 01/11/2018 18:54

@keaps how has your day been? Any changes?

Dosmamas · 01/11/2018 18:53

How does this work starting a new thread to make sure we are all on the November bus together? I'm pretty new to mumsnet.

Dosmamas · 01/11/2018 18:51

@Rightnow1245 what a week for you poor thing, seems like you've had hopes up then down up and down šŸ˜–šŸ˜– my partner I had started spotting so we are kinda happy if this is the start of AF starting to panic this would drag in and on and completely mess the cycle up.

Dosmamas · 01/11/2018 18:49

@wanderlustgirl with a colour that strong I think it's safe to say it's a B F P!!! Congratulations šŸ’„šŸ’„šŸ’„

Rightnow1245 · 01/11/2018 18:42

Thanks ladies but I just did a asda digital and it came with a No! I’m hoping I just haven’t got enough HCG in my wee to show up šŸ¤” There were no FRER 😬 Lets hope we will get our BFP soon 😊

wanderlustgirl I think they are good! Congratulations x

I've been super quiet since my first post as we had a really stressful few weeks!

Had AF feels all day and due to start on Saturday. However I did a test hoping these cramps would turn into af and I can start my next cycle more positively. How reliable are Tesco tests?

Dosmamas · 01/11/2018 18:19

@Redk8 has AF come yet for you!?

Dosmamas · 01/11/2018 15:25

@keaps how amazing would that be. Your right about the cost of it all, not just financially but emotionally as well.

Dosmamas · 01/11/2018 13:42

@Rightnow1245 omg girl that's incredible!!!! Have my fingers crossed here so hard for you. I hope we are the same! We haven't got any tests in the house and neither of us are that bothered about testing. Getting BFN's has kind of drained our positivity and all I keep thinking is the pregnacare has messed up our chances anyway. Still no AF for my partner, no PMS no cramping nothing. Bizarre.

@Decgal88 definitely going to just go the bare necessities with vitamins, can't bare wasting time with pills that can change your cycle! I took the OCP and it took longer than 4 weeks to work!!

Kayjay2018 · 01/11/2018 09:51

@rightnow1245 I’m so excited for you!! I am 10dpo and completely BFN on Poundland strips yesterday and today. One app says due on Tuesday the other says Monday but I have 0symptoms of af or pregnancy. Would normally have had sore boobs since ov and have had none. Also feel in a good mood and normally I’d be a little stressed with pms. Hope that faint line becomes a strong one!

keaps · 01/11/2018 09:50

@dosmamas I don't know when I plan to test again. It's heartbreaking getting the BFN. Let's not even talk about how much I have spent. AF still not here yet and my sore boobs are not as sore, though still sore a bit. Don't know what to think. I spoke with a friend of mine who has a 1 yr old. She said she didn't get a BFN till 2 weeks after AF was due. So apparently let all whose AF is delayed not loose hope.

@Rightnow1245 fingers crossed for you. Your is here. Good luck.

Rightnow1245 · 01/11/2018 09:28

Thanks decgal and cloclopops

CD 40 today 😭
I did a test today even though I said I wouldn’t but I had some Poundland ones left over so I thought why not!
There is a very very faint line! I’m not sure if it’s a evap line or a positive!! There’s no point me posting it because I can’t get a good picture! The test I used only picks up 25miu of HCG so I might get a FRER today and test with that 😊
