@Blondeandbroody I'm 2 days late today, I feel like I just need a break from it all. I'm now ready for AF just to show up and put me out my misery!

Blondeandbroody · 17/12/2019 16:09

@nt1992 oh no, how odd? When are you due AF?

Sidebar - I've felt sick all day today but BFNs on the four; yes four, ICs I've done today wtf is this bull crap lol! Yes I know I'm nuts and have a POAS addiction lol!

Hi all, room for another?!

Nice to read all of the crazy stories on here, the waiting game really does made you go insane and the wondering and worry too!

Strong feelings I'm pg (AF due in 3 days), sickness, tiredness, painful boobs, lower back ache and an aversion to the smell of garlic! As well as a very strong metallic taste that has got even stronger today! Had similar symptoms with my first pregnancy but unfortunately mc at 5 weeks, so I've got everything crossed for this time but also that dread that it won't all go to plan again.

Within the last 72 hours my two best friends both told me they were pregnant and it's been a lot of information to process (especially as neither of them know about the other as yet!) I was so happy for them but also sad and confused with so many feelings!

Yet another BFN from a FRER but no AF😴

mellymoo86 · 17/12/2019 15:43

@CiaraJ01 is it bad if I have a drink tonight? Argh I'm in two minds and have this overwhelming guilt about it.

MrsC89 · 17/12/2019 15:34

@Skygirl1983 does it count if your name is spelt incorrectly 😂

mellymoo86 · 17/12/2019 15:32

@CiaraJ01 I know right! I was like do we have to go?. We will have to go and pretend to smile and 'show our face' 😏 If I get a BFN then I'll be necking down a multitude of drinks lol.

CiaraJ01 · 17/12/2019 15:25

@mellymoo86 ohhh that's even worse. But if your OH isnt fussed and you can't drink.... then why are you bothering?! 😂😂

I think it rules me out but will wait for AF before I start necking neat Vodka 😂

mellymoo86 · 17/12/2019 15:21

@CiaraJ01 Tell me about it. Everyone will be predrinking from 2pm and we will rock up at 7.15pm when it starts. I'll just be like can we eat and leave please lol. OH doesn't even want to go and that's his work lot 😂

Hmm implantation would have happen between 6-12 DPO so safe to say it would be a BFN if you have nothing at all on the test. Would keep an eye on AF arriving and making sure it's normal. If you are spotting and things arent normal then would do another test. And yeah 14DPO should be plenty of time especially if your luteal phase is 10-14 days.

Blondeandbroody · 17/12/2019 15:11

@CiaraJ01 I think you can't count yourself out until AF shows, I've read stories (obsessively googling) of people being a week late getting their BFP, some 17dpo onwards etc x

CiaraJ01 · 17/12/2019 15:04

@mellymoo86 I love that you love alcohol as much as me - I can't stand drunk people when I can't join in!!

Nope, no spotting. Slight CM over the last few days, but we all no I've no idea what any of that means lol. Keep thinking I've ever so slight AF cramps, but I was at the gym last night so could just be muscle soreness...

Do we think if it's a BFN tomorrow on a FRER I can take that as I'm definitely out? Rather than testing again a few days later - a positive would show by 14 DPO right??

nt1992 · 17/12/2019 14:41

@FutureMrsSmith how you feeling?

Littlepea90 · 17/12/2019 14:07

@sojo44 same, I’m going to start using the opk in a few days so I can “try” to DTD as close to ovulation as possible. It’s horrible waiting, but I do find the lead up to ovulation exciting and hopeful. Just hate the disappointment after.

mellymoo86 · 17/12/2019 13:44

@CiaraJ01 Goodluck for tomorrow morning!! Any symptoms spotting recently?

mellymoo86 · 17/12/2019 13:43

@Skygirl1983 My name is on there to!! I hope it's true for all of us. I should know if I am or not before Christmas 🤞🏽 Got OHs Christmas party tonight and not drinking. Why is everything so boring without alcohol lol.

nt1992 · 17/12/2019 13:39

@CiaraJ01 excited to see your results!

CiaraJ01 · 17/12/2019 13:24

My surname is in the lost does the count?? 😂😂

@sojo44 I bet Scandinavia is amazing this time of year 😍 But yes if I get a BFN tomorrow I will be drinking allll the prosecco @Skygirl1983 😂

Testing in the morning with a FRER 🙈😱

debbs77 · 17/12/2019 12:54

Hmmm.... I heard that tok. Looks like the poundland packs of normal tests are best x

@Blondeandbroody I have made a pact to myself this month not to test early anyway so I'm going to enjoy the prosecco and also eat all the pate!

@Lou99 of course! We'll make an exception for you!

I’m still around, reading in the background, just trying not to work myself up too much, I’m just sitting & waiting. 🤞🏻 For all those soon to test

Blondeandbroody · 17/12/2019 12:35

@debbs77 I hear the digis aren't sensitive x

debbs77 · 17/12/2019 12:23

Really hoping to be a 2020 bump. Waiting for my period on friday.

Which of the digital tests are the best? On cheap tests I am seeing a faint positive, but a definite negative on more expensive ones. I'd like to test before friday too if possible as we are going to a family gathering that night and i want to surprise him before that!

Blondeandbroody · 17/12/2019 12:22

@Skygirl1983 hahaha I love that your determination to not test is purely for Prosecco reasons ❤️❤️❤️

Louu99 · 17/12/2019 12:18

It can still be 2020 bumps, even if it's this time next year I start trying again, right?! 😂

nt1992 · 17/12/2019 12:15

@Skygirl1983 my name is also on there🤞🏼🤞🏼
