Anyone else going insane and just wanna rant?

@xxlannixx thank you. I knew I wasnt pregnant but you still hope dont you!
I feel like ill be a lot more relaxed next month. We also realised we use sperm killing lube last month so we'll be staying well away from that! 😂

@SanFrancisco49er sorry to hear. Welcome aboard the feb boat.

Period showed up right on time today! Onto February and cycle 2!

Still waiting for my period here. I double checked my dates and first two cycles after MC were 26 days long which would've meant me starting today but last cycle was 27 days which means I'm due tomorrow. So another day to wait! I had very low level cramping all morning, so much so I put on a pad on just in case but nothing yet.
If it doesnt start tmrw I'll take a test.
Hope youre all doing ok?

@Muda I saw my GP nearly a year ago. Had 3 day and 21 day tests but he signed them off as normal, even though they were clearly not. Went back to see a different GP who told me I needed to have sex 2 dpo to get pregnant!! I should probably mention my GP surgery is in special measures as it is shite.

I put in a formal complaint and a different GP told me that he didn't understand my blood tests and that he would refer me to a gynaecologist. That was in September. My appointment is in February.

I'm 41. I think I've missed the boat to be honest. I do have dc but with a new partner and we'd like one together.

@aijdwok123

1- agreed
2- will you adopt me 😆

Everything you said ten fold

Hi Ladies, sorry I have been quiet... have been reading the thread. Sorry to hear of all the struggles but it sounds like we are all in a similar boat. My ovulation prediction date is Monday 27th, is anyone in a similar time frame? Unfortunately my partner works away Monday to Friday which makes timing really tricky.

I rant to myself often. Ranting allows me to express my emotions. But ranting to myself helps me to hear my more confusing thoughts more clearly. In short, I can “sort it all out”. I think this is much healthier than dumping my assorted anxieties on friends and family. Sometimes my rant shows me that my initial thought process was just plain wrong. Sometimes I find that my feelings are justified and, after ranting, I understand the logic behind my emotions.

@Whyhaveidonethis it’s frustrating and such a roller coaster of emotions throughout the month! Have you been to the dr or anyone before to discuss trying to conceive?

AF is definitely on her way. Temps have dropped, bfn at 13 dpo and spotting for 2 days. Argh how is it this fucking difficult? I'm seeing a gynaecologist on 26th Feb so hopefully will finally get some help. Onto month 20

@lilcl95 @SanFrancisco49er
Sadly I think Af has just arrived early so not my month either. Mine too started with a brown wipe but now it’s bright red and I’ve got the cramps too- ugh. Hopefully we will all be lucky next month (fingers crossed!)

26th February that is

1wdpo today. Bfn on a FRER and now I have pink when I wipe. So fed up. Will probably miss my fertile period this month too due to shift work. Argh, still I'm seeing a gynaecologist on 26th so maybe they will do something

Also TMI!

😂 another delightful side effect of TTC!
Mine hasnt properly started yet but had small amount brown discharge when i wiped so im guessing it will today!

@lilcl95 i think mine has started too, a day early 🙄 at least ill be at home for the inevitable cramps today though and not at my desk!
@Muda lots of luck to you this week, keep us updated!

@lilcl95 sorry your AF came. Good luck next month! X

Hi everyone, i took a first response this morning as I just couldn’t wait and got a bfn. I thought it might stop me thinking about it constantly but it hasn’t! I’m now just going to wait until af is meant to come which is around 22nd/23rd.
It’s so hard isn’t it when your head is convincing you you have symptoms!

Its so hard to say, it sounds like everything happened at the right times and you have classic symptoms but you're just not going to know until you test and get BFP or period arrives.
I know from my experience in July last year that I had definite symptons before I tested the day before my period - I was still so sure it was just in my head though that I tested just to get it over with! This time I have none of those symptons and although i know every pregnancy can be different, I just feel that I'm not pregnant this month.
I've also read loads of late BFP stories so as you don't know exactly when you're due I'd test each day or at least every other day if period hasnt appeared. I dont know much about coming off the pill so i dont know how long periods take to come back into a regular pattern but 7/12 seems like a long time ago for your last bleed?
