Babytime I'm absolutely identical to you except for some of the symptoms. I was pretty sure I was this month but, like you, AF arrived yesterday.

Am going to join the other thread suggested by GYO and July WILL be our month I hope.

I had the same last year. My doctor said it was probably a chemical pregnancy, which accounts for the symptoms. It is very common, and for women not ttc, they probably don't notice it too much and as you say, just get a late or slightly heavy period. We who are ttc pay much more attention to the symptoms.

It is supposed to be usually very simple problems with the makeup of the egg/sperm, or fusing issues or implantation issues or stuff like that.

But it does show mr sperm and mrs egg are able to get together

So sorry babytime and all the best wishes.

Hey great GYO, well done you! I'm not due for another week but started with what felt like morning sickness yesterday. Just tummy bug I think. Can't possibly come that early!

Hi babytime - I had very faint lines with both my DCs, and they were both on my due date.....!

I've had 3 faint lines on FRs, but a slightly stronger one on superdrugs own brand, in the last couple of days. Maybe there's a funny batch of FRs going around! My first line sounds like your line... & we did both get leaky boobs last week didnt we?
Fingers crossed for you

copied and pasrted into three threads hoping for help x

Ok... I am holding on and trying not to whoop with joy because i woke at 5am and resisted testing to just now.

Wee'd in a pot, held FR 6days in it for 5.5 secs (just to make sure) and the neg line came up immediately. Felt sad so held it close to window and squinted and at 1.5m I start noticed more dye appear but oh my god its so faint and its been 20 minutes and you can see it if you look hard.

So it can be an evaporation line because I was so careful nt to flood it and I know it could be an early mc or as I leanrt yesterday a chemical pregnancy.

If it only picked up a bit because the hcg levels are not yet strong enough then surely another test now will be neg. i will have to test again tomorrow.

Also I was due yesterday so surely the levels should be strong enough to read more clearly.

Arrrghhhhhhhh why couldnt it just be line or no line - help me!

Yep, my Mar mc was a CP - Af arrived a week late, but i'd tested early. Can't help myself! The one before that was a MMC at 9 weeks.

Really hope AF doesn't turn up and ruin your day tomorrow. She's a nasty piece of work!

Hello

Sorry to hear you had two mc, I had an early mc in April which I learnt today is called a chemical pregnancy so I never even got to feel pregnant. it all happened around the time I was due and I was still quite upset so I cant imagine how you felt. But you know as you say onwards and upwards. Your body's done it twice so I am sure next time will be the one

Good luck with the 18th then.

Tonight my period has still not arrived but twice today afyer a wee I had brownish stuff and second time red streaked, I'm hanging on hoping its an implantation bleed and my previous neg tests were just done too early.

so we'll see.

take care

Hi babytime, how are you today? ANy further news? I'm also ttc for no 3 after two MCs inNov07 and Mar this year. OK abot things now but just found out I have BV or STrep V intion, so that could be a contributing factor (I've had no MC history before). So it's onto the good old antibiotics and hanging until next Fri (18th) when AF due. Onwards and upwards!

loveverona · 10/07/2008 21:20

Its called :

The incredibly addictable wagoners thread - for all stages of TTC...may the BFP's continue!

GYo · 10/07/2008 15:28

hi
im sorry re period showing up or appearing to show up. Lets hope its a short bleed for implantation- I read somewhere it can be brown- not that I want to give you unnecessary false hope...

Its really exciting. Im more worried about how I tell DH the result, either way. Its so new for both of us...

Will update when i have any thing to report.

Not sure why I havent suggested it before but you should join the other thread Im on - (got word wagon in title- will be towards top of active threads on conception) - its a great group of ladies and we discuss more than TTC. Most of the time its hilarious....

Hello

Well I have not bothered testing because it looks like my period is starting

It is strange though because normally on the day my period starts it just goes bang into it, full flow.

This morning when I wiped myself there was some brownish stuff on the tissue and since then nothing.

But my stomach is churning so maybe its just a slow starter this month or even better an implantation bleed which does normally happen around your period due date. But I think it is normally bright red - not sure, will look into that.

I dont want to waste any more tests. I guess I will know by tomorrow if its just my period getting off to a slow start.

Still crossing my fingers.

And for you too.

Its exciting isnt it?

Hi there BT

How are you today? Anyupdate on testing?

I've still not tested - will do later tonight. Nervous now!

GYo · 09/07/2008 21:42

ooh that sounds strange. Not had that exactly but occasionally bit gelatinous before I get ewcm.

Am on a phone so hard to write. Will write more tomorrow. Still not tested.... I just feel odd. No af spotting though.
Getting nervous!

Maybe too early... I hope.

Glad to bring a smile where I can

Light headed is a very good sign, got that with both of my pregnancies.

Tonight I dont feel queasy or anything just feel my period brewing

This sounds disgusting but early I thought I felt my period starting and walked to the toilet very slowly, when I wiped myself I really expected to see blood but there was a small piece of jelly like stuff - yuck sorry

That is weird! Never had that before only stringy like stuff around ovulation.

You had that before?

GYo · 09/07/2008 12:26

Hi- Sorry about your BFN. Could it be too early? Nothings definite til AF appear though?. Will you test again tomorrow?

That?s bad timing re your friend talking about her baby? Awful feeling I bet- no ones fault but it doesn?t stop you feeling pants about it. Maybe you can tell her you are TTC another time, so she doesn?t always talk about her lovely baby..

I?m amused (but thank you!) that you?re positive here re my symptoms. I actually LOL at my PC in a very quiet office ! I am a little bit tempted to test today but will try and wait. Im out seeing a friend later so that will distract me tonight?.

So far today feeling light headed (quite usual if I don?t eat enough) and no spotting for AF. Probably all this speculating is what is delaying things!
