Hey, currently around 8/9dpo. I had a static smiley on clear blue ovulation test Sunday 24th so assuming I ovulated the next day? No idea to be honest, it's my first month trying them. Af due on friday (6th), I am dying to test but going to hold out until friday (well try to anyway!). Been getting some cramping this morning (I get this a few days before af due though so I'm guessing I'm out this month, but trying to stay positive). Anyone else testing this week?

AF arrived bang on time today Sad I was expecting it tbh as no symptoms but still annoying. At least I can drink at Christmas I suppose. I hope the rest of you get better news.

@wannabebump I wish I could say I see something but I can't Sad. I've been the same as you pink/brown when wiping for the last few days but just have this niggling feeling that af is going to rear her ugly head tomorrow when she is actually due Angry.
I don't know how much more of it I can take I perhaps got my hopes up far too much this cycle after having my laparoscopy.

botbird84 · 07/12/2019 21:27

@wannabebump I can imagine! Have my fingers crossed for you 🤞xx

wannabebump · 07/12/2019 21:21

@botbird84 AF is due, been expecting her for a couple of day's. Lots of cramping and brown/pink when wiping, no clots etc. I'll test again in a few days if no AF, just driving myself crazy! X

botbird84 · 07/12/2019 21:15

@wannabebump I can see where you're coming from, but yeah I think clutching at straws. How long until until AF arrives?maybe wait a few more days and test again? GL xx

wannabebump · 07/12/2019 20:37

Just humour me (still pink/brown...nothing red)... and I couldn't resist inverting this mornings picture. I love to say I see the faintest of faint faint faint second lines. Does anyone else 😭

Sorry @wannabebump but your not out until af arrives. Not sure what's going on with me. Af was due yesterday (11dpo), I did a cheapy test yesterday and the day before and bfn. I had cramps (like usual before af) on 8,9 and 10dpo but nothing really since. Sorry if tmi, but noticed that cm seems a bit creamy and thick today (I dont know if this is normal or not). I haven't tested today, I expected af to be here this morning, and with the negative yesterday and the day before I know I'm not pregnant I must just be having a longer than usual cycle xx

Commencing day 4 of there just being a smudge when I wipe and no flow. FRER this morning and its BFN.

Haven't a clue what's going on. But it seems that the massive packet of OPKs I ordered last week will still be needed!!

Anyone testing this week??

@CautiousPractice congratulations ❤️ xx

12goldstars · 06/12/2019 22:57

Congratulations Cautious!

CautiousPractice · 06/12/2019 22:47

Massively unexpected positive end to the week. In shock right now. Going to pee on a whole bunch more sticks before I accept this is real. Baby dust to everyone here

Annie20019 · 06/12/2019 22:43

@CautiousPractice congratulations 💐 what lovely news!

CautiousPractice · 06/12/2019 21:49

I've never posted before. I've been lurking here for a really long time (18 months) but never found anything to say. Pcos sufferer. Tonight I tested on a whim cos I have loads of the things. And looooook!!!!

Anyone testing this week??
newlymarried2019 · 06/12/2019 21:03

I'm now 5 days late and still showing BFN. The slightest spotting at 3 days late, but then nothing since.

Im a regular 29 days cycle girl (like clockwork)

What do I do now?

12goldstars · 06/12/2019 20:41

Sorry for those of you that are out. It will happen for you. I’ve also had cramps today and I’m convinced they’re af on her way. I remember early pregnancy cramps feeling different.

91ld12 · 06/12/2019 18:17

I'm testing this week but trying so hard not to symptom spot just in case AF hits.

Currently 9/10dpo based on peak OPK and temp rise with slight spotting yesterday morning and today (not usual for me) and horrendous backache - friends who are pregnant said it could be implantation...

Know it takes a couple of days to show so planning on testing Sunday...keeping fingers and toes crossed!

sportyfanatic · 06/12/2019 18:07

Month 8 of trying for #1. AF due Monday/tues. 29/30 day cycle like clockwork. I never feel hopeful every single month which doesn’t help! Had two chemical pregnancies already. 1st month of using OPKs and SMEP so....fingers crossed...

wannabebump · 06/12/2019 17:59

@HE88 I feel ya. We're at month 15, it's so difficult. Sending hugs xx

Test is BFN

X

HE88 · 06/12/2019 16:58

@wannabebump thanks. Good luck to you hope you get your bfp. I guess I'm not out until af shows but I'm just not feeling very positive after 2 years of trying it is very disheartening and hard to stay positive. Xx

wannabebump · 06/12/2019 16:42

@teachpeace tested before AF due and the test was white white white! Have another FRER which I can do tomorrow AM with FMU, but I'll go grab some cheapies tonight...and hold my pee for as long as possible.x

@HE88 sorry xx

HE88 · 06/12/2019 16:24

Did a test and it was negative Sad and had more brown spotting today. Just waiting for af to show now!
Think I got my hopes up too much this month.

teachpeace · 06/12/2019 16:10

@wannabebump three days with a pad and nothing though?! I'd still be keeping my fingers crossed. Have you tested? X

wannabebump · 06/12/2019 15:06

@teachpeace you reckon? It was pink when wiped first thing so I've ruled it out to be honest, just waiting on AF. X

teachpeace · 06/12/2019 14:15

@MrsHufflepuf so sorry to hear about your AF! The worst feeling ever! @wannabebump sounds like you could be - it's the waiting that kills me!

wannabebump · 06/12/2019 13:01

I'm losing my mind here 🙁
So...
CD20... positive OPK
CD29... fresh pink when I wiped
CD30...off and on brown/old blood CM but only when wiping
CD31... wiped first thing this morning and it was pink but now back to just brown/discoloured discharge

This is now day 3 of wearing a pad and nothing ever on it.

Continual cramping, sore lower back, sore boobs haven't lifted. Been moody the last couple of days but not today.

Can AF not just show her face and be done with.
