No AF and BFNs 🤷‍♀️

Hello! We are trying for our second child and I am frustrated. I am sure several of you can relate to being frustrated with this whole TTC thing. 😅 Anyways. AF was due 3 days ago and has not shown her ugly face yet. But I have also gotten nothing but negatives (and one invalid). I was planning on not testing again until AF is a week late. Anyone get their BFP that late or even later? I am irregular, so it could just be a late period? I just want to know if I really am pregnant or not, so I can move on! Thanks for any insight you all provide! 😊

@lastbany hello! How are you getting on? Oh who knows what's going on with me 😂 I got a peak static smiley on the CB ovulation tests on Sunday CD12 , we didn't manage to DTD that day or the day before, last was Thursday so I was gutted but managed to on the Monday. But now my temps aren't showing ovulation yet, no biphasic pattern yet. The 2 months I have done BBT they have confirmed ovulation. Did another OPk there and it's low. Not sure if maybe doing my temps a few times earlier than usual has effected it! Or ovulation was delayed - which may be better as we DTD Mon and Wed. The pressure for my BF wasn't great but we had been doing well doing it every 2nd day up until then! Trying not to look too much into it! I hope everyone else is getting on better! I was determined for a stress free cycle too!

Welcome @Moxi2! So sorry @Donnat89! You seem to be having a positive attitude, which is great!
I have been testing my ovulation once a day for several days and now I have been testing twice. Been low so far, but today it jumped! I read about this method called Sperm Meets Egg Plan (SMEP). So since I got a high test today, we are going to DTD today, tomorrow, and the next day. The next day is a break and then do it again the following day. Lots of DTD, but it should hopefully work! 🤞

@Donnat89aww I’m sorry to hear that, but at least you can see that everything looks healthy!
Good luck with ttc x

Donnat89 · 04/12/2020 10:53

Not good news got me I'm afraid seems my bleed was a miscarriage so no sign of pregnancy at the scan and the tests they did all negative . So back TTC for us .

On the onus side my ovaries etc all look healthy xxxx

@HT1335 I guess I would just have to wait and see what happens.
I am hoping that it might turn out as a BFP due to the spotting I had (As I never had it before) and that my HCG Levels are just low.
With my 2 boys I only found out I was pregnant at 6 weeks- so fingers crossed!! No sign of Af no period symptoms and headache most of the day- also very tired and hungry like a cave woman Blush

HT1335 · 02/12/2020 08:15

@Moxi2 I was 10 days late and had no spotting at all which was making me wonder what was happening as normally I do get some spotting
But it’s here now so at least I have an answer and can try again!

lastbany · 02/12/2020 07:45

Very confused! My cm is very very watery (which aoorently means ovulation is near) but did a ov stick and barely got a second line!!

Moxi2 · 02/12/2020 06:47

@Donnat89 CONGRATS!!!

Moxi2 · 02/12/2020 06:46

Hi@HT1335, Thank you for your reply!
Just curious on how long you waited until AF arrived and did you have light spotting for 11days?

HT1335 · 01/12/2020 16:46

@lastbany hope you work things out!

HT1335 · 01/12/2020 16:45

@Moxi2 welcome I think some of us were in the same situation too unfortunately I waited and ended up getting my AF. I would maybe call your gp and see what they suggest? It’s very frustrating isn’t it but hopefully the gp can give you some answers or reassurance

Moxi2 · 01/12/2020 11:06

Good day Ladies,
I'm new here and hoping someone will be able to put my mind at ease confused !
So we have been TTC for 16months now- DH is 33 and I am 29.
I have 2 boys aged 10 and 6 and he has 1 girl aged 6 from previous relationships. My cycle is between 28 and 32 days. Last month it was late by 2 days and then on cycle day 17 i started spotting (Light pink - only when i wiped) for 11 days!!! I have never had any spotting in my entire life and now currently on cycle day 37! No sign of Af 3 negative HPT. I dont know if i am pregnant or if something is wrong? Any advise will be appreciated!

Thank you!!

lastbany · 01/12/2020 10:37

HT1335 · 30/11/2020 11:00

Good luck with the opk!
Here’s hoping we all get some lovely news for Christmas 🤞🏻

HJen22 · 30/11/2020 09:37

@ImpatientMama mine arrived too and I did the first one this morning on day 6 as my cycle normally is quite short. Came back low but hopefully over the next few days I'll get high and peak 🤞🏻 sending positive thoughts to you too 🥰

Opks arrived a day early! Planning on starting daily testing tomorrow since my cycles are irregular plus who knows how the chemical pregnancy will effect it. So we will see how it goes! Trying to stay positive that this will help! 🤞🤞🤞
