Not looking good here...bit of spotting but no full on AF yet. I just kind of knew that it was not going to be good news this month. Sure she will turn up en masse soon. I am starting to think this will never happen. Sorry, to those of you who are even further down the line than me...but cycle 7 is depressing . I don't think the spotting would be implantation this late, so am psyching myself up for her imminent arrival.

07mumstheword · 19/11/2007 11:51

bucky Those damn burglars how could the take your precious stash of tests and I thought eating your chocolate was bad!

Bucky2007 · 19/11/2007 11:22

Yes, I agree with dg when I got my using OPKs it was in the afternoon. Didn't get one in the mornings....

Well done CBCB for your iron resolve .

Hope they are not working you too hard GG. 07MTW right there with you on the obsession with buying HPTs! I referred to them as being like the keyring collection I had as a kid, some time ago. However, I now can't find most of them now. I had some of them in my bedroom, can't remember whether it was before or after I was burgled...but I can't find any of them now except 4 Boots ones which we know are rubbish from everyone elses experiences. I had LOADS, CBDs and everything....I think I had them in a box and maybe it got picked up in a hurry by the burglars . They will have a bit of a surprise LOL . Either that or I will buy more and then find them all and have even more...

07mumstheword · 19/11/2007 11:16

Wow I never knew that about OPK testing DG I did mine FMU and got so it must have built up the day before? I'll certainly remember that for next month. (if I need to)

digitalgirl · 19/11/2007 11:07

me again

GG don't test opks with fmu, as LH doesn't start to build up till early afternoon. try holding wee for three hours during day and testing then. I got my smiley face at 7:30 last night.

digitalgirl · 19/11/2007 11:04

oops, rubbish grammar, am typing with one hand

digitalgirl · 19/11/2007 11:03

morning ladies,
no bd'ing last night coz we did had a lie-in in on sunday morning and took care of business already . will be on the case tonight, tho! have acupuncture today so hopefully that'll jolly the egg along nicely.

even lower temp for me this morning, which could be the ov-dip. ooo, I hope so!

gg hope you survive the day from hell. you do realise that at this rate we'll be testing buddies!

bucky I really hope that this is your time!!!

cbcb well done for resisting, it'll make that BFP stronger on weds.

big waves to cycle buddies shazza & mtw and fellow ov-spotter sarah pixie where are you?

07mumstheword · 19/11/2007 10:56

Bucky It sounds so good for you. Was it Pigleychez that felt faint in the gym and got a BFP a day or so later? CD30 how exciting! I understand about getting a BFN though and still holding onto hope if you don't test. However if sods law doesn't work today (no provisions for AF) & TEW doesn't show & you get your dizzy spell it's all looking good!

Shazza Confession time! I have become obsessed with buying PG tests! I've got 3 first response, 3 cheap e-bay ones and 4 CBD in the cupboard. I will probably start with a first response and if I get the remotest sign of a second line I will use a CBD!

Hi Sarah was only thinking of you earlier. Sorry to hear your body is confusing you just BD as much as possible to cover all bases!

Shazza2002 · 19/11/2007 10:48

sarahn I think the problem with symptoms is when TTC you notice every little twinge and pain, but then I don't think you can imagine EWCM I would definitely take it as a green light

sarahnh · 19/11/2007 10:15

cbcb, cycles have varied from 29/30 to 27 to 36!!!! i am just amazed that i am having all these symptoms so early!!!! got a horribel sicky feeling at the back of my throat aswell, very spooky!!!

Shazza2002 · 19/11/2007 10:02

cbcb Just saw your post about testing too. You are doing great, so will you hold out until CD30?

Shazza2002 · 19/11/2007 10:00

Hi mtw I think you are doing well, could get a pretty accurate result tomorrow. Are you using CB?

Well I have some of these tests that say 10dpo which I think would be around CD29/CD30 so Sunday/Monday. Maybe I'll wait until then.

If I go by last months cycle which was 39 days that's just way too long.

sarahn Cycle last month 39 days. This month had peak on CD18/CD19 so guessing I OV around CD20. So don't think I will have another 39 day cycle else that would make my lutael phase 19 days. I would say go by the EWCM and get BDing

Bucky2007 · 19/11/2007 09:59

Sarah I had a 26 dayer last month and am on CD30 now. The month before the 26 day month was 32 I think...so not extremes of long and short but yes, I've had varying.

CD30 here! Scary times now...knickerwatching like a woman possessed. Felt faint on the train this morning, but that could have been because I didn't have any breakfast and it was hot and stuffy and I had to stand . Still absolutely no AF signs . As I am ill prepared if she does turn up, as I forgot to put 'supplies' in my handbag today, sod's law says she will arrive no doubt !!

I have however, developed a phobia of testing. I REALLY don't want a BFN. Not that not testing will make any difference, if its a BFN its BFN, but whilst you don't see it there is at least still hope.

sarahnh · 19/11/2007 09:46

good morning everyone, things are definitely starting to hot up in the 2ww!!!

Well i think i am having the weirdest cycle ever.. i'm only on cd10 but already have had loads of ewcm and cm, definitely have the windy nips but now they are alot darker than they were a few days ago and my boobies definitely feel bigger!!! My last two cycles were 36 days so i don't know how the hell i can wait to test til then!!! Has anyone had really long cycles followed by really short ones???????

07mumstheword · 19/11/2007 09:32

Good morning Shazza Are you going to be able to wait that long to test?

Well done cbcb You are showing fantastic restraint!

I've still got no symptoms, still obsessing and resisted testing today again as pointless. At least if I wait until tomorrow I'm in with a fighting chance of a correct result. I'm scared of getting a BFN but I've waited long enough! I'll be 14 dpo tomorrow and four days before AF due.

Morning All

Yay for DG smiley face, and I bet you smiled right back didn't you????? So would be shorter cycle than last month. I'm so pleased for you. Get BDing girl!!

Hi cycle buddy mtw , fingers crossed for Tuesday, but like you say if it's negative it will just be beacuse it's too early

Hi to eveybody else, so many to mention, but thinking of you all .

I'm CD23, plan to test CD32 which is next Wednesday which seems liek a lifetime away

07mumstheword · 19/11/2007 09:08

Morning GG How sweet of your DH My DH asked last night when AF due I told him and he said oh it seems ages ago! He's right this feels like the longest 2ww ever! Hope your day turns out better than you anticipate!

GryffinGirl · 19/11/2007 08:53

Morning all - I have the day from hell ahead, so probably won;t post much, but will look in on you all.

Hi Abbeymeg and welcome back!

Bucky are you going to test today?

i am CD 12 today and DH is under strict orders to come home early from work this week, not to drink too much and keep me company . This is the first month I have used the OPK's because I have fairly set 28 day cycles and always got EWCM, but after 11 tries at this TTC lark, I figured there had to be something else. Still no line where there should be one, but DH was really sweet this morning - when the alarm went off at 6.30am, he rolled over gave me a hug and muttered sleepily "remember to test with your first wee of the day, pet". I was quite touched he remembered .

PMSL that the windy nips are back!

hello to shreksmissus, DG, pixie, excitable, 07MTW, shazza Starlight* - any news of the lost AF?

Bucky2007 · 18/11/2007 22:09

Ooh look at all the action on here tonight

Abby its so nice that you are back. I missed you. I even added you to my Pixie story last week....

Hi dg glad you are hatching...hope the spaceship sees some action tonight.

Bucky waves to 07MTW keeping my fingers crossed for you for Tuesday. Maybe I will test with you if I make it till then. Knickerwatch has begun .

Hi to Coolcat & Excitable and all the rest of the gang.

Where's Pixie?? She didn't say she was going anywhere did she? Maybe she is off cleaning houses for milk again .
