Hi,

I had Implanon removed end of November, have had one period since and am currently on day 16. TTC #2. Used some OPKs over the weekend which were positive on Sunday and Monday morning so assuming I ovulated Sun or Mon perhaps tho this was my first time using them properly.

Anyone else due to test around the same time who wants to share (possibly non-existent!) symptoms? :)

yey arabella am so pleased for you! awesome news!

and muffins I keep hearing it everywhere but surely a second line is a second line, right? in that case huge congrats too!

wow, what a lucky thread this is!

AF not due until Sunday/Monday so won't be testing until Tuesday at least. Definitely thinking I'll be contending with AF on Monday...

CazandBelle · 20/01/2011 09:18

Congrats arabella - that is super news! :)

and muffins how exciting! can't wait to say a definate congrats to you! ive also heard two line is two line however faint!

think my AF is due next tues/wed. all guess work though! a bfp would really cheer me up about now. (although ive lost all my positive thinking and not hopeful that I am anymore!) ive got to the stage where i would gladly go into hospital if they would hook me up to drips to give me these antibiotics and painkillers to just lie there and get better. Its becoming such an ordeal forcing them down when I can't see any progress!!

come on then everyone! lets get a few more on the October bus!

toytown · 20/01/2011 09:18

Congratulations arabella

arabella36 · 20/01/2011 09:20

Oh cool Muffins!!!! Come and join me in my premature October Baby threadWink My DH won't acknowledge pregnancy yet as its so early and he's a cautious soul so I need someone to be excited with!

My lines are faint too (I'm only 9 or 10 DPO). But it still counts! Congratulations!

arabella36 · 20/01/2011 09:23

Poor caz with that awful illness - hope you're feeling better soon, and of course that you get a bfpSmile

sunface · 20/01/2011 09:23

ooooo congratuluatoins muffins and arabella36 !!!!!! ooooo so happy for you both!!!!!!!!!! Hang in there bluecrane! i'm 27days in my cycle today and no sign yet of AF.. but fully expecing her to rear her ugly head... dying to test though!!!! Oh i'm so happy for you both!!!!! xx

arabella36 · 20/01/2011 09:30

Hoping its just too early yet for a positive result for bluecrane

What test did you use muffin?
My FR one this morning was fainter than the clearblue one with the cross.

arabella36 · 20/01/2011 09:30

Thanks sunface ghost and toytown and lots of luck[fingers crossed]

sunface · 20/01/2011 09:34

so there is something to be said for early testing afterall :) Sometimes.........Oh you must be just over the moon!!!!! x

BlueCrane · 20/01/2011 09:40

Keep expecting AF to appear but have to pop into town tomorrow lunch so if ot here by then I may indulge in buying another couple of tests! Grin ...anyone know if the Boots own brand ones are any good or is it worth sticking to Clearblue?

muffins hang in there and test again soon!! Exciting stuff!

sunface · 20/01/2011 09:44

hi bluecrane i bought some boots ones the 4-day early testing ones. Think they are reduced slightly just now £8 for 2? Good luck!!! i'll be offline tomorrow unfortunately, but i'll keep all crossed for you over the weekend!

muffins · 20/01/2011 10:02

arabella I used a First response one mainly because they advertise on packet can be used 6 days before missed period.

May purchase some clearblue ones on way home for tomorrow mornings festivities then!

I'm just feeling a bit shellshocked as I genuinely didn't expect to see two lines, still not quite sure I believe it now! Well I don't believe it. Maybe if it's still there tomorrow then I will.

Fingers crossed for some more BFPs over the weekend :)

OP posts:
sunface · 20/01/2011 11:56

just did another one :( BFN - gutted.... this ain't happening this month. Good luck to everyone else!!

daimbardiva · 20/01/2011 12:36

Congrats to all those with positives, and commiserations to those who are going to have to keep trying. I've set myself a deadline of Sunday (AF due Tues) and then I am going to PEE ON A STICK!!!!!

Icoulddoitbetter · 20/01/2011 13:19

I second daimbardiva with the congrats and comiserations. I did a Predictor early one last night, despite telling myself very firmly not to, and at least wait till this morning. Of course I couldn't and it was BFN! I did a bit of googling about Chemical Pregancy this morning and I'm hoping that's going to put me off buying any more tests till at least monday when (I only think) AF is due!

The symptoms are driving me MAD though! This morning I had such strong cramps that I was sure I was going to get AF. Bad sign though was me getting really grumpy with DH last night, could be PMT.....Argh!

arabella36 · 20/01/2011 13:28

Sorry surface:(

Icoulddoitbetter those symptoms could equally be pregnancy ones

BlueCrane · 20/01/2011 13:46

Icoulddoitbetter I'm totally with you on the symptoms driving you mad. I think AF due today (only second natural cycle post pill though so I could be wrong)...anyway, none of the usual AF syptoms yesterday but then some crampy feeling last night...gone this morning and a BFN and nothing else so far! Oh, and a strange sore nipple last night (which I never notmally get) just to tease me in the final days of the 2ww!! SO frustrating as really just want to know one way or the other now!! Going to try and wait until Sunday for another test... unless AF gets me first!

sunface · 20/01/2011 14:17

i'm with you bluecrane, going to now wait for AF or test Sun/Mon. But i'm pretty sure she's on her way..... hey ho. Wishing everyone else the best of luck this month and it's so great to hear of 2 definate BFPs!!

eastegg · 20/01/2011 15:18

Just been catching up.

Wow! Things have moved on a bit! Amazing news arabella and muffins and many congratulations. Hope everything's still going OK.

Blue you can wait with me. I'm now officially about 3 days late but haven't tested yet. Yes I know I'm bucking the general trend. Going to wait until the weekend. Finding it weirdly easy to wait. Think I'm nervous about finding out! Also I'm expecting AF to be late.

Ghost you're being very patient too. Hang on in there!

sunface · 20/01/2011 15:32

oh eastegg i'll keep everything crossed for you, can't believe you haven't tested yet, good for you!!

VintageNancy · 20/01/2011 17:03

Evening! Wow so pleased about the BFP arabella and yes definitely, a line is a line muffins!

Can't believe you haven't tested eastegg - I have my fingers crossed too.

Sorry about your BFN sunface - come join me, I"ve baked a batch of chocolate cupcakes to go with yesterday's brownies.

I'm looking forward to the month ahead and lots of SWI lol. I have my husband home for 2 whole weeks and I will be making the most of it!

BlueCrane · 20/01/2011 17:38

east well done with waiting! I caved in this morning but shouldn't really had bothered as had a feeling it might be too early [here's hoping that's why it was bfn!]. I was lying in bed for ages umming and aahhing about whether to do it or not though! But for the next one...Sunday it is unless AF here first!
