@decgal88 fingers cross the opk have helped is get our BFP this month! šŸ™ I feel much less stressed this month being able to pinpoint almost exactly when I've ovulated. I had a negative OPK saturday evening, positive Sunday morning , positive Monday and my bbt had spiked Tuesday morning confirming I ovulated. So I'm feeling good ā¤
@dosmamas @rightnow1235 fingers crossed you get your answers soon! Not knowing is the worst

decgal Yeah I’ll defo keep you posted! X

Dosmamas I’ve also heard this!

So I’ve done so much googleing this evening about late BFP and I’m a little more confident that I could still get a BFP 😊 basically if implantation happened later then it can take 6-7 days to show up in my urin.. so basically if I ovulated on the 15th then the maximum time it would take is 12days to inplaint.. that’s would take me to the 27th then I would only have enough hcg to show up on a test on the 3rd November šŸ¤” This TTC business is a head F**k 😬

@Decgal88 ahh did you, my partner doesn't believe me!, i have just ordered some folic acid and some vit d.

Decgal88 · 31/10/2018 17:11

@Dosmamas i started taking pregnacare about 6 weeks ago but stopped as AF turned up early and it was making me feel sick, sore boobs for a few weeks! i have read quite a few reviews on it that it can mess cycles up so i stopped it! only taking folic acid and vit d combo now x

Dosmamas · 31/10/2018 15:28

So I've just had a realisation my partner is taking pregnacare for the first time this month and this pre -natal seems to be renowned with messing up cycles. Honestly this is so disheartening. 😫

Decgal88 · 31/10/2018 14:17

@Rightnow1245 good idea hope you get some answers not nice not knowing whats going on let us know how you get on x

Rightnow1245 · 31/10/2018 13:35

decgal I have a Doctors appointment for next Thursday.. I called them and explained my situation and they said to come in.. I keep getting lightheaded too so maybe I should tell them that.. if AF comes before I won’t go!

Dosmamas I really have no idea when I’ll test I might just wait for my appointment now! It’s getting me down keep getting a bfn. Good idea about going to the doctors too! Think it’s always good to explore your opinions 😊 I am also googleing like mad hahaha

@Rightnow1245 must be so frustrating hun maybe book a drs appt to get bloods done? has your cycke been this long before? i eould be going crazy so annoying not knowing whats going on! I know what you mean @Dosmamas hate the waiting game especially if no AF shows and BFN! when is your partners AF due?

Dosmamas · 31/10/2018 09:07

@Decgal88 I can't help myself! I like the new modern HPT but there is a part of me that doesn't trust them. The general rule is its invalid once it's been opened, but that seems to only be applicable to digital tests (like the one I posted šŸ˜…) I can't see how opening a FRER invalidates it, it's essential a normal preggo test but in a fancy holder. Don't do it though! Last night I spent three hours trying to find other people who had ended up pregnant after a Clearblue Digi BFN at 16dpo..It's a rabbit hole! 😫😫

Decgal88 · 31/10/2018 08:51

@Dosmamas i have never thought of taking a test apart GrinšŸ˜‚i can see a faint line though!! maybe get your partner to take another one? @keaps fingers crossed AF doesnt show!

Dosmamas · 31/10/2018 08:48

@Rightnow1245 what about you? This is a joke! So typical. Clockwork cycle for 18 months of tracking and two months into TTC it's decided to mess around. I get what you mean about wanting to get organised for November, I have stuff to buy and want to chat with the donor in advance but can't right now šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø

Dosmamas · 31/10/2018 08:45

@Rightnow1245 no idea, we probably won't now, zero pregnancy symptoms and five BFN's we will just wait for AF and if no AF then maybe go to the doctors, which we need to do anyway to put out feelers out there for fertility options in our area and have a fertility MOT, my partner has had three miscarriages before (with her ex) so some cycle hormone testing would
be good to know.

Rightnow1245 · 31/10/2018 08:03

dosmamas We all do those things I thought I had a line over the weekend.. but I think sometimes we just convince ourselves because we want it so bad! When do you think you’ll test again? To be honest I’m so fed up now.. it’s annoying because I can’t move onto the next month because I have no idea what’s going on and I need AF to turn up.. I should nearly be on to ovulating again for cycle 2 if I wasn’t having this crazy long cycle.. I have never had one this long before 😬

Dosmamas · 31/10/2018 07:50

Morning @keaps when will you test? I think waiting for AF after she is due is worse than the TWW it's long drawn out hell.

@Rightnow1245 I'm a bit embarrassed I put that up last night. I just got ahead of myself after I saw someone on glow had opened theirs up and she ended up with a BFP when she tested with a FRER. We are still waiting on AF I have been looking at my partners past cycles on her OVIA app and having long cycles is definitely not new for her. How are you doing waiting so long for AF?

Morning people. How's us? AF due today. Waiting to know my fate. It sucks that any feeling around my vag I think it's AF. Rushing to the bathroom every now and then to check. It is well.

Dosmamas · 30/10/2018 19:53

What is everyone's opinion here on pulling apart Clearblue digital pregnancy tests? I pulled ours apart this morning (I always do cause I'm paranoid) and there are two lines? Is there anyway this could be positive or am I being a desperate idiot šŸ˜‚
