@nt1992 no updates here unfortunately, what feels like cycle day one million and still no BFP or af! How are you doing?

nt1992 · 09/01/2020 19:08

@MrsC89 how you doing any updates?x

Lucy5546 · 07/01/2020 19:12

@MrsC89 sorry to hear your still in limbo. Hopefully this week flies in for you!!

MrsC89 · 07/01/2020 18:17

Went to the GP this afternoon, she did a test while I was there, bfn again. She has told me to test in a week and if still no BFP or no AF then I will need a scan. She also told me to leave a test longer than the time limit and see if you can see anything on it then. Apparently she did that when she was pregnant!

@MrsC89 Aww well I wish you the best of luck! Keep me updated :)

Today I'm 7dpo and I had a temp dip by .3 and been cramping today albeit lightly. Trying not to get my hopes up 😩 hard not to, but since this is the first cycle I'm temping I don't know what's normal for me!

itsbeenalongtime · 06/01/2020 19:48

Thanks @MrsC89 typically happens on first day back to work, my husbands birthday etc. Nothing more since this morning... test line still faint and feeling quite crampy. Just wish it would come on and be over with.

MrsC89 · 06/01/2020 19:27

@Ellsbells112 Haha! Thank you. To be honest I dont think I am, I would be pretty shocked, just had a chat with DH, he is getting more excited that I might be, he was like you had a positive test and af hasnt arrived.

Ellsbells112 · 06/01/2020 18:35

@MrsC89 wow that's mental!!?? Definite need of a gp visit, hopefully they'll get a blood test on the spot for you! Fingers crossed you are and its hiding haha x

MrsC89 · 06/01/2020 17:06

@Ellsbells112 it's so sad, I can't imagine how people are coping! That sounds amazing, not so sure about the skydiving... I'm too scared! 😂
I'm ok thanks, having a very weird cycle, for a bfp on the 27th december, but every test since then has been bfn. Thought it was a chemical, but now CD38 and no sign of af, my normal cycles are 30 days. So I'm planning a trip to the GP later in the week!

Ellsbells112 · 06/01/2020 16:52

@MrsC89 it was great! Yes I was about an hour away it was absolutely crazy, I woke up most mornings thinking the house was on fire because its all you can smell!!! It is no joke! And the sun is red some days 😭 also so much smoke in the air. Truly so sad!
But I had an amazing time, I touched kangaroos and koalas, I swam with turtles and sting rays and even saw reef shark super up close and personal! My sister bought me skydiving as a present... It was CRAZY but totally worth it in the end haha
It has been such an experience 😍😍
How are you?? How was Xmas and New year x

MrsC89 · 06/01/2020 16:46

@Ellsbells112 you're welcome! How was Oz, were you anywhere near the fires?

Ellsbells112 · 06/01/2020 15:52

@MrsC89 thank you!! Haha

Happy new year everyone! How are you all?
Have I missed anything? Back from Oz now 7dpo myself. Was hoping for some holiday baby making but I don't think we did it enough to grant thatb👶

MrsC89 · 06/01/2020 13:05

@itsbeenalongtime oh I'm so sorry! Look after yourself and try and take it easy

itsbeenalongtime · 06/01/2020 12:06

Spotting this morning for me so thinking chemical 😪

MrsC89 · 06/01/2020 10:21

@EllsBells112 we have moved 😀

MrsC89 · 06/01/2020 07:36

@BlueLily89 I got so obsessive with OPK's that I agreed with DH to step away from them this cycle, not that its stopped me from going psycho with this stupidly long cycle!
@itsbeenalongtime will go to the GP later this week, I will keep you posted. Secretly hoping as soon as I book an appointment af will appear

itsbeenalongtime · 05/01/2020 22:23

@MrsC89 I would defend definitely visit your gp for a chat to see if they can help. Fingers crossed for you Thanks

BlueLily89 · 05/01/2020 21:21

Can I join?

This is our first cycle TTC. I’m 30 as is DH.
I’m on CD6. My cycle is fairly irregular so not sure when I will O. One app says 18th and another says 22nd. Plan to just DTD every other day to hopefully cover all bases starting today.

Not keen to OPK as I think I will get a bit obsessed but we’ll see if nothing happens after a few cycles I may have to try.

MrsC89 · 05/01/2020 20:45

@itsbeenalongtime I had a positive 27th Dec then nothing since then. No symptoms now either

itsbeenalongtime · 05/01/2020 19:50

It's clearer inverted...would just have expected the line to be darker at this stage I suppose. Out of tests and live rurally/back to work tomorrow etc so have ordered some which should be here on Tuesday but that's maybe no bad thing...saves any temptation. Still no AF symptoms so taking that as positive.

Mangaroo · 05/01/2020 19:37

@itsbeenalongtime I can see a line too!

mrsio · 05/01/2020 18:01

@itsbeenalongtime I'm pretty sure I can see a line. And if I can see it in a photo then it must be more obvious in person x

mrsio · 05/01/2020 18:00

@nt1992 I'll keep everything crossed for you 🤞🤞🤞 here's hoping the 2WW isn't too bad x

itsbeenalongtime · 05/01/2020 17:49

@MrsC89 def speak to your gp. Peace of mind if anything. I'm normally 28 day cycles. Had a faint positive on a frer last Tuesday and then nothing since. Faint like on clear blue this morning so who knows. Would expect lines etc to be much darker by now so not getting my hopes up.

MrsC89 · 05/01/2020 17:21

@itsbeenalongtime normally 30 days, I havent ever had one this long, even when I was a teenager they were 35 maximum! Not sure if i should see the GP, or just sit it out!
