Anyone testing this week between the 18th or 26th October? It’s my 2nd cycle ( first where I’ve tracked ovulation) ttc first child. Im trying to avoid temptation to test too soon! I’m currently 5 or 6 DPO and hoping to wait until Thursday where I’ll be at least 9 DPO.

@Peonies94 yeah 9dpo so still very early. Sorry tmi again but I’ve had constipation today, which I’ve read is a sign so fingers crossed x

@beckybabyx are you 9DPO? Still really early! I’m fine, I’m only 4DPO and not feeling anything at the moment, hoping to hold out until Wednesday to test!

@beckybabyx ahh I was going crazy at 7DPO last month! I’m trying a much more chilled approach this time, but I can’t see that going to plan!

@beckybabyx mine is only 10 days, just hoping that isn’t an issue for me!

@Peonies94 I have some cheapies so will probably test a little early. My luteal phase seems to be 16 days so 10 days to go! What about you?

@beckybabyx ahh goodluck! Will you be testing or waiting for AF? I’m 1DPO today, so it’s going to be a long two weeks!

Hi @Peonies94 I am 6DPO today and really thinking positive this month. TMI but I have had a lot of CM, which I don't think I usually get and I've read that is a good sign apparently? Grin

BritInNZ · 07/11/2021 17:51

@Peonies94 my AF finally showed up a week late, so I'm onto cycle 10 now!

How’s everyone? Is anyone who was unsuccessful onto their next cycle?☺️ Hope everyone who had positives are doing well!

@Trinall I'm 5 days late now, I'm never usually late. Very odd! Will give it to over the weekend before I start contacting GP 😬

Trinall · 03/11/2021 11:26

That would be so annoying if so!! How late is AF for you now??
Maybe try booking a doctors appointment for a blood test to give you hopefully a clearer answer of what's happening x

BritInNZ · 02/11/2021 20:06

Update from me - still no sign of AF but had two BFNs, so I think COVID vaccine has delayed my period, very annoying!

Trinall · 02/11/2021 19:53

I think maybe that's what I'm doing, reading other people's symptoms and just agreeing I have the same symptoms too!
I just think it's bizarre my body is playing with me like this is if I'm not pregnant because it wasn't like my contraception was hormonal so I just don't get it!
I'm booked in for a blood test next Friday now so hopefully by then AF will have either shown up or even more hopefully have a bfp!!
Fingers crossed your body either sorts itself out or you end up getting your positive!!

madeleine85 · 02/11/2021 19:30

@Trinall hope you're feeling better. This was the month I came off birth control, and my side effects were crazy. I have never felt anything like this before. It really might just be that simple for you. I was sure I was pregnant, but I wasn't (I am still testing it becuase it felt so real). Another mum on this told me she had the same symptoms as me, otherwise I don't think that i'd believe it was negative. She said it took her body 2-3 months to normalise. I'd rest up, let your body come back to it from the hormones and keep testing just in case. I'd also do ovulation tests because if nothing else you will be able to track what is going on with your cycle based on those levels. Good luck!

Hi everyone!!
I'm hoping this thread is still active because I really need some advice. I had the copper coil removed 5/10/21 and my last AF just before that. Ovulated on 14th and dtd on 11th and 16th so either side of the date really. I'm now 5 days late for AF and have done what seems like a thousand tests all bfn and only the one really faint positive, but with bfn coming again after that so probs evap line or false or something. But my boobs are absolutely killing me! I've never had soreness like this before, usually get it a little bit before AF arrives but nothing like this. (Struggle to get to sleep because I can't get comfy with how sore they are!)
I'm just at a loss now because I've had probably 10 bfn in total now but AF is showing no signs of coming and with being late now, I thought I should have had a bfp by now but nothing. I just don't know what to do xxxx
