I think I ovulated on CD19. Due to DH work commitments we only managed SWI once but that was on CD19. I know a BFP is still possible but we did only do it once.

It's too early to test but I have all my hopes of a BFP running through my head and symptom spotting. My body has been cruel in the past though and got my hopes up only for AF to appear.

However, this evening I am feeling quite nauseous and have had feelings like ligament pulling in my abdomen. Also slightly tender boobs.

I'm 8dpo and just want the next week to be over so I know!!!

Feel better for getting that out!

Thanks for the advice Loup.

I dont feel like this month is the one.... this will be 15 months trying! Fed up!

maybebabyR · 23/02/2011 11:04

Thanks loup Think I may just have to admit defeat this month though. Just want AF to turn up to stop me wondering Smile

Loup23 · 23/02/2011 11:09

oh changing 15 months is tough, I've only properly tried 2 and feel Sad when AF shows, you deserve a BFP and hope ones comes your way.

Well my LP is usually 10-12 days so I am hoping by the weekend I know either way. If AF is coming I hope she comes soon so we can crack on with next month, urgh can't bear the thought of more 2ww!

Fx the next few days brings some good news and good luck bump for tomorrow, let us know how it goes!

Loup23 · 23/02/2011 11:10

oops didnt put changing in bold above

Sorelip · 23/02/2011 11:14

I'm on day 42. Usual cycle is around 32-33 days. Tests say negative though. What's the sodding deal?!

Changing2011 · 23/02/2011 11:18

I dont even know when my Luteal Phase is or how long it lasts!

Loup23 · 23/02/2011 11:20

changing maybe try charting, it might help you see exactly when you ovulate and whow long your LP is. From what i've read LP should be at least 12 days to allow implantation (ie AF doesnt come until at least 12dpo).

Hi I have dd1 5, dd2 3 and DS 1 . Have finally convinced dh to have a 4th! Have had 3 sections so terrified there will be some scarring or something that will prevent us being successful but I guess we won't know until we try! I stopped breast feeding a few months back and my cycles r just getting back on track but r long so who knows. I have had some browny cm today and yest and suspect its the start of af as same thing happend last month.

Good lucj every one x x

Morning girls - well couldn't resisit again but BFN for me this morning and think I am 11dpo (or 10). Feel crappy this morning like AF might arrive any time.....

So frustrating, DH and I SWI all through the right days!

Hope there's better luck for the rest of you x

RFCMummy · 24/02/2011 07:03

Thanks RWC, sorry to hear about AF too, she's a witch! Good luck for March x

maybebabyR · 24/02/2011 10:23

Sorry to hear about AF RFC

There is still time for that BFN to tuern to a BFP Loup!!

Still no AF for me Hmm

Bumpwanted · 24/02/2011 10:42

Sorry to hear that RFC

Loup it ain't over 'til the red lady sings!

Maybe how late are you now? Have you ever been this late before? Maybe you should go to the docs and they can do a blood test?

Just came from my doctors appointment. Its a bit weird. She says they don't do hospital pregnancy tests now so she would just get me to go on a standard pregnancy test and there is no point as I have done 3. She said it is still really early days and lots of people can get a BFP and then find implantation doesn't occur/occur properly and I am only one day late with AF so just to bear that in mind...nice and positive then!

She did say though that it is normal to feel like you are getting your period and to keep running to the loo to check so I am not completely mental Grin

maybebabyR · 24/02/2011 11:00

Ah, bump sometimes GPs can be a little insensitive can't they? But everything is looking good, so stay positive -grin]

When do you have to go back to see them/midwife?

Well, I am 4 days late now, but that is just basing on the fact that I would have returned to 28 day cycle after coming off the pill.

I have a friend who is a midwife, and she said that I could just be implanting late due to late ovulation. But I don't want to get my hopes up Hmm

Bumpwanted · 24/02/2011 11:11

I think she was just trying to keep it real so I don't get really excited to then be disappointed. I'm just taking each day as it comes and hoping for the best!

You see a midwife around 12 weeks which is when the first scan is.

I am still keeping my fingers crossed for you!

maybebabyR · 24/02/2011 11:18

Ah, you will fine, just enjoy it Smile

Keep them crossed really tight!!

Loup23 · 24/02/2011 12:05

ah bump glad to hear the dr appt was ok-ish! Hope everything goes really well, was DH thrilled?!

maybe hope AF stays away, have you tested again?

I felt really Sad this morning but am now starting to feel quite ill so am getting hopes up (again) that maybe AF will stay away and a BFP might come along... Am going to try and stay away from tests Hmm until Sunday as will be dpo 13/14 by then....

Good luck to all x

maybebabyR · 24/02/2011 12:07

Ah, Loup, i felt really sad yesterday too. I haven't tested again, I don't know whether to just wait it out.

Still so so tired and having strange tummy feelings, esp when I sit for too long.

I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you on Sunday x

Loup23 · 24/02/2011 15:25

thanks maybe i'll keep everything crossed for you too... keep dashing to the loo to see if AF has arrived, will drive myself mad this weekend!

maybebabyR · 24/02/2011 15:46

Thanks loup

I know what you mean about the toilet dash! I am constantly doing it! Still no sign though!

Bumpwanted · 24/02/2011 16:17

Glad to hear the AFs are still at bay. I want some baby buddies so roll on your BFPs! Wink

goingmadtrying · 24/02/2011 17:30

Fx crossed for all the ladies still awaiting the wicked witch!!! I have well and truly been convincing myself of symptoms all day, going to treat myself to a cbd for Saturday morning which will be 10dpo hoping that I'm not going completely mad with symptoms :(

BlueCrane · 24/02/2011 18:21

Well...BFN here too! Roll on the continuation of the POAS until the 'red' lady sings or we get a BFP Smile as you can see I'm trying to stay positive here.

Not sure how many DPO but am CD29 of 30 or 35. Had mild cramps for the last 24hours and thought my boobs were sore earlier but trying not to symptom spot too much! Wink
